Chapter 283 The dust settles

No matter how lively the situation is, there will be times when it calms down, not to mention that there are three important awards to be awarded next. When Adrian returned to his position, the applause almost calmed down.

Of course, we must accept the congratulations from Ruifan and others. We have never won the Oscar for Best Director before, and it is very likely that there will be no such thing in the future. As witnesses, they will naturally feel honored. Even Natalie looked at him a few more times.

However, their attention soon returned to the stage, because Sean Penn had appeared in front of people. The old rules were the last Best Actor awarded the Best Actress of the Year.

They play different roles, and they attract our attention... Sean Pan didn't hesitate, quickly finished his opening remarks, and then introduced the candidates.

Frankly speaking, Natalie does not have an advantage. Regardless of age, qualifications or film themes, what can leave a deep impression on people is the four nominations in 6 years and the second anniversary of Joan Carter's death.

Oh, and there’s a personal sing in the movie, but Hillary Swank also gains weight and practices boxing for Million Dollar Baby.

However, the decisive factor of some things is not on this, so...

Incredible, Natalie Portman!Sean Penn announced loudly.

There was no doubt that the scene was in an uproar again. You should know that she is only 23 years old now, and she is only two years away from the youngest winning record. She was nominated for Best Actress in 2000, breaking the youngest nomination record.

Although this record was broken the following year, she is still the second youngest nominee and...

The second youngest winner!

Natalie obviously couldn't believe it, and she got up very slowly and hesitantly. Almost everyone believed that Adrian, who had won the best actress for six consecutive years, could not keep it anymore. The academy generally could not allow this situation. Even if the character she played was qualified to take Joan Carter, played by Natalie, the little golden man, was recognized by Cash's children. The reluctant expression she showed while singing was also deeply impressed. After the announcement just now, this part was played on the screen.

Even though Natalie knew Adrian's methods, she would inevitably think so, and only God knew how this demon would play with her, so she had already prepared her mind, but no one expected that the record would continue.

Thank you... Natalie is Natalie after all. After stepping onto the aisle, she calmed down and returned to her usual appearance after getting on stage. She was excited and excited, no different from ordinary winners.

Thank you for presenting the Best Actress to me. I have always been eager to stand here, but I didn’t expect it to be today, so... I wasn’t even ready for the speech.Well, thank you mom, you always support me without reservation; thank dad, although our opinions rarely have a consensus, we understand each other; thank Joaquin, you are excellent, I hope you can stand here in a few minutes; thank you Joaquin, for your recognition and thank you for leaving so many touching songs; thank you crew, thank you for all those who have helped me, this honor should belong to everyone... Thank you Director Cowell, you are really a very, very talented person, and it is my honor to be able to cooperate with you, thank you!

Natalie bowed slightly with the little golden man in her arms, and then the applause rang again.

No matter how surprised or dissatisfied you are, even if the public opinion may be fiercely criticized tomorrow, the result cannot be changed, just like Adrian won the Best Director for the rest of the time.

Congratulations, Nada.After she came back, Adrian took the lead in reaching out his hand. Natalie, who had a smile on her face, was stunned for a moment, and then shook with him: Thank you.

Just before that, her smile was still from the bottom of her heart, but after that it brought an indescribable scent.

But Adrian did not make her too embarrassed. After saying that, he sat back without even a hug, leaving the space to Joaquin and others.

Now that’s the show, dear Nada, but the ending has been decided, just like her own plan, it has been settled after tonight, and the rest is just to go with the flow.

Adrian chuckled, set his eyes on the stage, and then frowned again.

Chris Tucker, the poorest host of the Academy Awards ceremony, started chattering again. Not only that, he also commented on the best actor nominee.

This was an act that could liven up the atmosphere, but unfortunately he basically praised Jamie Fox and belittled the other four people from beginning to end. Although it was quite hidden, he could still hear it. He almost said that the Phoenix brothers were equal to Fox in total.

In short, there was no justice at all, so the laughter was always sparse, and even Fox himself felt a little embarrassed in the end.

Well, this year's Oscar will undoubtedly become the worst class, and the college has to pinch its nose and admit it. Racial discrimination or simply discrimination is a true minefield.

Of course, thanks to this, Adrian was able to successfully realize his plan.

Tucker's nagging was finally over, and Sophie appeared on the stage, so who can laugh at the end?

The winner of Best Actor is Revan Finisk!Sophie announced it immediately.

Adrian raised his eyebrows, then laughed and clapped with the people. It was nothing to do with him. He had never interfered in public relations. This was the choice of the academy and... luck.

Thank you, thank you, thank you everyone... Ruifan, who took the little golden man from Sophie, smiled with a little excitement, and was so decent that after only a few words, there was another applause.

It seems that if you want to surpass your brother, you have to keep working hard.Adrian took the time to say this in Joaquin's ear.

It doesn't matter.

Joaquin sighed and shrugged again. Revan is indeed better than me. If I were to play the role of Ennis, I might not be as natural as him. He deserves the title of Best Actor.

Adrian then smiled and patted his shoulder. This is true, Ruifan has a good reputation in the circle. He is always low-key and has no scandals. So far, only Christine Bell is a real girlfriend, and it has lasted for so many years.

Therefore, although the incident of almost dying from drug use caused a huge storm, most people in the circle were on his side.

In this way, coupled with the fact that he won the Best Actor in Venice at a young age, most of the roles he has played in in recent years have been praised by film critics, and there are also powerful figures like Adrian. Even though this is his first Oscar nomination, he successfully reached the top with the help of luck.

The reason why luck is mentioned repeatedly is because if there are only one movie "Forward" and "Brokeback Mountain" in this session, the possibility of Fox becoming the third black actor would be quite high.

After all, he was supposed to win with this movie. Ray Charles' death last year made the movie unexpectedly attract attention. It is normal for the Academy to award the Best Actor to Fox for some reasons.

Unfortunately, because of Adrian, "Winning Forward" and "Brokeback Mountain" were produced in advance at the same time.

The former is also a biography of a legendary singer and has just passed away. No matter who the academy gives the best actor, it is difficult to explain the other side.

For the latter, the emotions of black ethnic groups should be considered, and the emotions of homosexual groups should not be considered?

And because of Adrian, homosexual organizations have made even more noise, and they have been quarrel with conservative groups throughout January this year.

So, after the various factors were combined, the Film Academy finally awarded the Best Actor to Ruifan. Of course, there is another important factor in it, that is...

Best movie, "Crash"!

As Barbara Streisand read out the winning name of the last and most important Oscar award, the hall, which has been in full swing since the beginning of Best Director, became lively again.

I thought that the story of the Miracle Director Grand Slam would be staged again this time, and some people have even begun to think about what the public opinion will turn tomorrow, but I didn't expect that the best movie was not "Brokeback Mountain".

What is even more surprising is that it is not a movie made by the most outstanding director like Million Dollar Baby or Aviator, but an unknown "Crash".

Well, it’s not appropriate to say that it’s unknown, but although "Crash" is a bit interesting and is definitely worse than "Million Dollar Baby" and "Pilot", why did it defeat everyone and get the best movie?!

If it weren't for sitting in the front rows of the Kodak Theater Hall, Adrian would have been hilarious long ago, because it was him who caused this situation.

The movie "Crash" attended the Toronto Film Festival in September last year, but it never found a suitable publisher, and then it was noticed by Adrian.

As a work that once defeated Brokeback Mountain, Adrian wouldn't be unaware of the potential of "Crash", so he recommended it to Paramount.

Paramount did not disappoint his expectations, and immediately pre-released and released at the end of the year, and was successfully shortlisted for the Oscar, and finally won the Best Original Screenplay and...

The best movie now!

Adrian's reason for doing this is very simple. No matter how outstanding the plot of "Brokeback Mountain" is or how many people are sought after, it is impossible to win the best movie!

Remember what you said before?

The United States is a conservative society as a whole. If Brokeback Mountain wins the best movie, it means that mainstream society recognizes that homosexuality is socially moral and deserves to be widely publicized.

This is absolutely not possible. Although the movement for homosexuals to fight for their own rights has become increasingly fierce after entering the 21st century, and several European countries and Massachusetts have allowed homosexuals to get married, they are still on the edge compared to the mainstream of society, but they are closer to the center than before.

So mainstream society will never allow film schools to send such signals, even if there are many homosexuals in Hollywood, there is no reason.

Only in one situation will Brokeback Mountain win the best movie, that is, Adrian is a semi-public gay person.

That is to say, unless the Academy discovers that the impact of awarding the Best Director to Adrian far exceeds the time when awarding the Best Film to Brokeback Mountain, the two evils will be taken less.

After all, if Adrian really came out of a semi-public state, then awarding the Best Director to such a genius, media tycoon, the most powerful person in Hollywood would undoubtedly push him to Martin Luther King among the gay crowd, and the subsequent chain reaction would definitely exceed the award of the Best Film to Brokeback Mountain.

But it’s a pity that Adrian is not only not gay, but also a famous playboy in Hollywood. If he hadn’t slept with Adrian, he wouldn’t be considered charming. This sentence has been widely circulated in the circle.

Therefore, the possibility of "Brokeback Mountain" winning the best movie is infinitely close to zero, so it happened to be used as a transaction, so the best director and the best actor fell into the hands of Adrian and Ruifan respectively.

In any case, the college must appease the gay organization, and Brokeback Mountain must gain something.

Even if there is little hope for the best movie, if Adrian really conducts large-scale PR publicity, it will inevitably be very troublesome to pack up after the awards ceremony.

Therefore, it became a good deal to take not seeking the best movie as a bargaining chip, but instead demanding support for the best director and the best actor.

Then, we conducted some public relations and at the same time attacked our opponents. For example, some online media revealed Eastwood's complaints against homosexuals 20 years ago. Although the old man came forward to defend himself, it still affected "Million Dollar Baby" and...

Hillary Swank.

So, Adrian's goal was finally achieved.

Although the main one is the Best Director, I said before that Best Actor has other advantages, so both fell into the hands of "Brokeback Mountain".

Then at this time Adrian gave another movie that was very consistent with the Oscars' appetite, and it was released by Paramount. It had nothing to do with the film company under AC Media. The story told by this movie took place in Los Angeles. This is a very big advantage. Those details will undoubtedly give the judges a familiar feeling. Coupled with the conflicts and reversals between various races, one character after another has been constantly changing from justice to evil, from the injured to the perpetrator, and grasping the bottom line is well-established, which is very consistent with the main theme of the United States.

So the college can give Paul Haggis the best movie openly, and then spread his hands to Eastwood and Scorsese: Look, it’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, nor is it that I’m worried that it will stimulate the director of Miracle, there are indeed better works.

This year's Oscar came to an end, everything was under Adrian's expectations and control, so next year will be even more exciting.

Hi Natalie, congratulations, the youngest best actress.

A smiley voice brought Natalie to her senses. Standing in front of her was a white woman in her thirties, a little familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was.

Thank you, the second youngest.She smiled and corrected that Mary Materin was only 21 years old when she won the Best Actress, and she was the youngest.

It doesn’t matter, you are better than her in terms of fame and acting skills, aren’t you?The other party waved his hand, and the only thing that everyone remembered the most in the past ten years is you.

I hope you are actually not bad, Kelly.

Natalie finally remembered the other person's name, Kelly MacDonald, an actress from Scotland, has acted in some pretty good movies, the most famous of which is "Train Guess".

Not bad!

MacDonald sighed and suddenly looked at the man who was laughing among a bunch of women in the distance. Sometimes I missed the situation when I was in the crew of "Elizabeth", in which I played a small role. Mr. Cowell was really for the director. He kept moving between the two crews, but still handled everything very well.

Following her gaze, Natalie sneered, knowing what she would have to pay for if she wanted to win the favor of that man?

To her surprise, MacDonald did not continue the topic, nor did he express his hint of approaching Adrian through her. After chatting for a few casual words, congratulating her again, the other party left.

Natalie was suddenly confused and confused. If MacDonald didn't have this idea, then why was she approaching herself?

Maybe you really have no idea?

No, how is that possible!

The other party probably played the trick of trying to get.

She couldn't help but think of the few women who came to meet him before, and kept asking about her relationship with Adrian in between words, wanting to ask her to introduce Director Miracle.

After all, to the current position, she is the only woman to play the leading actress twice in a film directed by Adrian herself, and both were nominated and then won the award.

hateful!

Natalie cursed softly in her heart, took a glass of champagne from the waiter passing by and drank it all in one go.

What did that damn bastard turn himself into?!

I don't know how to write tomorrow's newspaper...

No, as long as you have a place to surf the Internet now, you can know it right away, but there will definitely be no good things.

When she walked on stage to win the Best Actress, Xiao Jinren was indeed filled with joy. No matter what, she did give a lot in "Winning Forward", and she was confident that she could afford this honor for her performance.

But when she came down and faced Adrian, fear immediately emerged from her heart uncontrollably. Although not many, it lingered in her heart like a shadow.

Finally got what she wanted, but after she actually got it, she realized...

This feeling is not very good, especially compared to the future that she cannot confirm, which makes her even more uneasy.

Natalie knew very well that Adrian would not let herself go so easily.

You have to think of a solution, you have to!

She kept saying this to herself in her heart.

Unfortunately, she has been cheering herself up like this for the past few years, but she has no way to use it. In the face of absolute strength, no strategy is powerless.

Wait... Maybe... maybe you can find someone first... Natalie's eyes suddenly fell on the woman in front of another bar.
