Chapter 475: Relevance
Taking off from Honolulu International Airport at 8 o'clock in the morning, counting the flight time and time difference, the Boeing 767 arrived in Los Angeles at more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon on Monday.
There are less than two hours left until the Oscars red carpet ceremony at five o'clock.
On the runway, Joan Severance, Cindy Crawford, Linda Ivan Golinsta and Nicole Kidman hugged Simon goodbye at the cabin door and walked to the gangway one after another.
Nicole Kidman was at the end, remembering the ridiculous weekend that had just passed, and looking at the other women who had already walked down the gangway, she finally mustered up the courage and said to the man in front of her: "Simon, I, well, I hope this is the last time, and later...... All in all, it's too messy. ”
"Okay," Simon replied with a smile, "Actually, if you said you didn't want to, I wouldn't force it." ”
Nicole was stunned.
Recalling the experience of the past two days, it is true that this man did not have any intention of forcing them from beginning to end, but a few of them, either on their own initiative, or went with the flow, or ...... In short, she didn't have any resistance at all.
Seeing that Nicole was in a daze, Simon gestured to the outside of the cabin door and reminded: "The red carpet ceremony will start soon, and you don't have much time." ”
Subconsciously nodded, and was about to walk out of the hatch as the man wanted, but asked in a ghostly manner: "Are you really not going to attend the Oscars, and, the Gucci party after the awards ceremony?"
Simon shook his head and didn't explain anything.
Inexplicably a little disappointed.
He stepped forward again and hugged Simon, and walked towards the gangway outside the door.
There were already two cars parked next to the runway, and it was an RV that had come to pick up Nicole, and her personal assistant and stylist were already in the car, so they could race against time to do the styling. As soon as she got in the car, Pat Kingsley also called and explained the details that need to be paid attention to at this awards ceremony.
Joan Severance, Cindy Crawford and Linda Ivan Golinsta were not eligible for the ceremony.
However, they also have to wait to prepare for the Gucci party after the Oscars.
The three women left the airport in an extended Rolls-Royce, Linda Ivan Golinsta finally looked at the Boeing 767 that disappeared from view, and then looked at the RV not far behind their car, some envious, some dissatisfied, and couldn't help but complain to the other two women: "Why is ours not an RV, but also a ride with the two of you?"
Cindy Crawford picked out a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet in the car, looked up at her when she heard this, and said, "Because your coffee position is too low." ”
Linda Ivangelinsta was like a cat that had been stepped on by the tail, and immediately sneered: "Aren't you too?"
Cindy slowly turned the corkscrew in her hand, "I'm not complaining. ”
At this time, the RV imperceptibly accelerated, passing next to the Rolls-Royce.
Linda Ivangelinsta looked at the figure of the RV passing by, and couldn't help but say: "I really don't know what Simon likes about her, there is nothing on her chest, and besides, she is obviously willing, but she always looks very reluctant." ”
Joan Severance took a sip of the red wine that Cindy handed her and said, "A lot of men like women." ”
"In that case," Linda glanced at Cindy Crawford and said, "Cindy, you are so proactive, you obviously miscalculated." ”
Cindy Crawford leaned lazily on the leather seat of the sedan with a goblet in her hand, and said casually, "I'm actually here to stimulate you, and the effect is very good." ”
Linda saw that Cindy didn't mean to pour red wine for herself, and was about to do it herself, when she heard the words, she was stunned, and then suddenly, glared at Cindy fiercely, and blurted out: "Bichi!"
Cindy wasn't angry, but glanced at Linda warningly: "Scold me for smacking you again." ”
Linda Ivangolinsta opened her mouth a little unconvinced, noticed that Cindy Crawford's narrowed eyes did not dare to provoke again, depressedly poured herself a glass of red wine, and also changed to a very comfortable position to lean back on the leather chair.
After only a moment of silence, Linda couldn't help but say again: "However, that guy is really powerful." As if he remembered something, he couldn't help but add: "Moreover, the strength is also very strong." ”
Cindy said quietly, "You also have a big mouth. ”
Linda's eyes widened and she immediately retorted, "Don't you too!"
Cindy said, "I mean, if you talk about the weekend in front of other people like that, be careful of being silenced." ”
understood that she had misunderstood what Cindy meant, but of course Linda would not admit her mistake, and said stiffly: "I'm not a fool. ”
Joan Severance watched as the two women argued, holding red wine in one hand and the tip of her finger running lightly over her satchel.
A card in his bag had Simon's personal email address written on it.
The man said that if there is something in the future, he can contact him through email.
E-mail, that's a novelty.
Joan Severance hadn't even touched a computer before.
However, the man said that he would check his email every day, and from this point of view, getting an email address is obviously more useful than a private number, after all, it takes time to make a phone call, and the man can't have much time to deal with a woman, and calling too many times will only backfire.
Send an email once in a while, and you probably won't have this kind of problem.
Joan Severance is 34 years old, but not much older than 27-year-old Linda Ivan Golinsta and 26-year-old Cindy Crawford.
It's just because she debuted very early that she is only a generation away from them.
The speed of renewal in the modeling industry is very fast, and I started to step into this circle at the age of 14, and I can't get out before the age of 20, so I basically have no future.
The more she experienced, the more Joan Severance understood the value of the email address that Simon Westeros had left her.
This is equivalent to a promise.
Of course, if managed properly, this network may bring her unexpected gains.
Just that, this weekend just now is not a 'waste'.
What's more, if you think about it carefully, except for the fact that four women are a little ridiculous together, this experience is actually not too bad.
This year's Oscars were held at the Dorothy Chandler Theater at the Los Angeles Music Center.
At five o'clock in the afternoon Western time, the red carpet ceremony officially began.
This year's Oscars are centered on five Best Picture nominees – "Piano Farewell", "The Storms of Time", "JFK Assassination", "Flowers of the End" and "The Fisherman", as well as technical awards for blockbuster projects such as "The Dark Knight", "Terminator 2" and "The Flash".
The red carpet ceremony lasted for an hour, and the male and female stars who have been popular in recent years have appeared.
Nicole Kidman walked on the red carpet at around 5:40 a.m., and the audience clearly remembered her performance in "Vulgar", and the heroine of the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" series, Apuro O'Neal, also boosted her popularity because of the film's popularity.
Therefore, as soon as Nicole appeared, cheers immediately rang out in the stands on both sides of the red carpet.
The careful preparation for most of the month in advance has just been in a hurry for the next few hours.
Feeling the cheers in her ears, Nicole Kidman quickly adjusted, smiled and waved to the crowd on both sides of the red carpet, and then attracted more enthusiastic feedback. It wasn't until Pat Kingsley, who was on the edge of the red carpet, gestured to her that Nicole reacted and walked forward without hurrying.
Screams, cheers, applause, spotlights, all eyes on you......
That's what she wants.
A certain moment also remembered a certain guy.
Everyone went out of their way to squeeze into the event, fearing oblivion, losing popularity, worrying that others would catch up, but he flew to New York at the most important moment in Hollywood.
Walk the red carpet unconsciously.
After being interviewed by ABC reporters, and briefly greeting some familiar people in the waiting area, the time was about the same, and everyone entered the theater hall one after another.
Nicole Kidman will be the presenter for "The Stormy Years," one of the five best films, tonight. This is a small part of the awards ceremony, the five stars introduce the five Best Picture nominated films to the audience at different times, plus the arrangement of MA and Daenerys Entertainment, she has a fairly conspicuous position in the sixth row of the hall, which happens to be adjacent to the "Piano Love" crew, and is easy to be swept by the camera.
At six o'clock, the award ceremony started on time.
After hosting the Oscars for two consecutive years and getting very good feedback from the audience, this year's host is still Billy Christo.
The comedian also had a bumper harvest last year.
After "When Harry Met Sally", Christo's box office dark horse "City Hillbilly" starring last year achieved a box office of $123 million in North America with a production cost of $27 million, becoming his second film to break 100 million at the box office in recent years.
Because of the big sales of the two films, Christo has also become the most popular comedy A coffee under MA.
The opening talk show will be a joke as usual.
In the past year, Warren Beatty, who was envied by Woody Allen and wanted to be the tip of his fingers, finally got married, and the whole Hollywood celebrated.
This is the 'big thing'.
It is completely comparable to the 'big event' of Hollywood such as seven to eight, eight to seven, and seven to six.
Batman saves Gotham City once again.
The Flash also appears in Canterlot.
It's so dangerous to suddenly find that Los Angeles doesn't seem to have too famous superheroes.
Just look at the big screen and you know how unstable Hollywood is.
There is a madman who assassinates the president ("Assassination of Kennedy"), a woman who has aphasia ("Piano Love"), a beggar who can't get out of the shadow of the bombing ("The Fisherman"), a poor man who has to undergo psychological counseling ("The Stormy Waves of Time"), and two runaway women who drive for their lives ("Flowers of the End").
Of course, this year is even more groundbreaking for the Oscars, with an unprecedented three female directors nominated for Best Director at the same time.
Inside the theater hall.
Listening to Billy Crystal on stage and telling jokes, many filmmakers in the audience couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Hollywood, which has been nearly a century old, has indeed undergone a lot of noticeable changes in recent years.
It's just that this Oscar, three female directors were shortlisted at the same time, which is unprecedented, and it really surprised many people.
For more than two months after the Golden Globe Awards, many media outlets were discussing the matter.
Especially after three films were also nominated for Best Picture at the Golden Globe Awards but none of them were selected, the media attacked the Golden Globes for discrimination against women.
In this context, many people inside and outside the hall realize that the 64th Oscars, more than 90% of the likelihood, will give birth to the first female best director in Hollywood history.
Behind all these changes, the figure of a young man is clearly visible.
After Billy Kristol's opening, Carl Mard, the current president of the Film Academy, delivered a speech at the ceremony, in which he once again specifically mentioned the fact that three female directors were shortlisted at the same time.
Subsequently, the award presentation officially began.
The first award is Best Supporting Actor, and Whoopi Goldberg, who won the Best Actress award for "The Ghost Is Not Gone" last year, took the stage, and the award went to Jack Parance, a veteran actor in "City Hillbilly".
Nicole Kidman won't appear for more than an hour before she introduces "The Stormy Years".
Looking at the results of the awards on the stage, Nicole had an idea when Whoopi Goldberg presented the first award, and she planned to list the presenters or award results of these awards, and several of them could be related to Daenerys Entertainment.
The first, Whoopi Goldberg, "The Ghost Is Not Settled", is obvious. +1。
The second, Kathleen Turner, introduces Best Picture nominee "Piano Love". +2。
The third, Rebecca de Moni and Christopher Lloyd co-presented the best makeup, and the winner was Batman: The Dark Knight. Rebecca de Moni also participated in Daenerys' "Shaking the Hand of the Shakers" with Disney the year before last. +3。
The fourth, Joe Pesci, who won Best Supporting Actor last year for "Goodfellas", presented Best Supporting Actress, and the award result was Kate Neligan, the actress who participated in "The Stormy Waves". +4。
The fifth, the newlyweds, Warren Beatty and Annette Benin, presented the award for best artistic direction, and the result of the award, "The Stormy Waves". Independent.
Sixth, Adam Baldwin and Valerie Golino, the heroes and heroines of the "Batman" series, presented Best Film Editing, and "Assassination of JFK" won the award. +5
Seventh, the two leading actors of "Fighting Wisdom and Stars" Mike Myers and Dana Carvey presented the Best Short Film Award. +6。
The eighth, Nicole Kidman, introduces the Best Picture nominee "The Stormy Years". +7。
The ninth, Tom Hanks, presented the award for Best Visual Effects, and "The Flash" won the award. +8。
The tenth, the two heroines of "Flowers of the End", Gina Davis and Susan Sarandon jointly presented the Best Foreign Language Film Award, and the award result, "The Red Lantern Hangs High". +9。
Counting to the tenth, Nicole Kidman saw the oriental director who thanked Simon Westeros on the stage excitedly giving an acceptance speech, and suddenly lost the mind to count them.
Although she has been listed ten times and has not been able to win a single award in Daenerys Entertainment-related nominations, Nicole still has a certain feeling in her heart again.
Something of surrounding.
I vaguely remembered the rumors in the circle that "The Stormy Years" directed by Barbra Streisand herself actually had a team under Gaomen Pictures to assist in the public relations of the Oscar awards, so even the fifth 'irrelevant' option just now is really not really irrelevant.
