Chapter 158: Award Ceremony
The Oscars began at six o'clock in the afternoon Western time, and before five o'clock, Janet rushed over to help Simon in the office of Daenerys Pictures headquarters, and the two of them got into a pre-prepared extended limousine to the Holy Civic Auditorium in downtown Los Angeles. X
Due to the writers' strike, although it is the 60th birthday of the Oscars, many aspects of this year's awards ceremony have been simplified. At about half past five, Simon and Janet rushed outside the Great Hall of the Holy Citizens, and the red carpet in front of them was only a short section of less than twenty meters, leading directly to the entrance of the Great Hall.
The courtesy car stopped at the entrance of the red carpet, and as soon as the two got out of the car, media reporters on the red carpet flocked over, and the dense flashing lights accompanied by the shouts from the stands on both sides attracted the attention of many people on the red carpet.
Pat Kingsley, who had arrived early, also came over at this time, reminding Simon and Janet to stop for a moment to take pictures with the media.
After nearly a minute like this, Simon suddenly heard a sound in the stands on both sides, turned his head to look, and the door of another courtesy car at the entrance of the red carpet opened, and Sandra Bullock, wearing a white off-the-shoulder evening dress, got out of the car, and walked towards Simon and Janet with her skirt in the corner.
The media reporters, who had already filmed enough footage, saw Sandra appear, and immediately became agitated again.
Seeing that Simon just hugged Sandra superficially, he was about to walk towards the front of the red carpet together, and a reporter in the crowd immediately shouted: "Simon, Sandy, let's take a picture together?"
Before Simon could speak, Sandra had already smiled and nodded in agreement, and then looked at Janet, who had been holding Simon's arm affectionately. Janet just laughed, then let go of Simon's arm and stepped aside, and Sandra pulled up.
Simon cooperated with the reporters to take pictures with a somewhat stiff smile, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly in the interval between changing poses, and said to Sandra almost in ventriloquism: "Do you really want to see Jenny cook me?"
Hearing this, Sandra leaned closer, and even leaned her head on Simon's shoulder, and responded to the shutter sound of the reporters, who were obviously more excited: "Yes." ”
Simon had to sigh that he was unladylike.
Finally got to the photoshoot, Simon didn't stay any longer, and quickly walked through the short red carpet with the two women, and entered the auditorium directly, and was a little glad that the red carpet tonight was short enough, otherwise something might happen.
Although it was last year's box office champion of the year, it received only one technical nomination for Best Editing. As a result, the only people invited to the cast were Simon and Sandra, who will be the guests of honor for tonight's Best Cinematography Awards.
Naturally, the important guests of the Oscars can bring their partners, Simon brought Janet, but Sandra came alone. Entering the auditorium, Simon once again found that the Oscar organizers, who were obviously afraid of the chaos in the world, had deliberately connected the actions of the three of them, the fifth row in the lower right of the stage was close to the three positions of the aisle, Simon was in the middle, Janet and Sandra were one left and one right.
With half an hour to go before the awards ceremony, Simon spent more than ten minutes in the auditorium chatting with some familiar guests, but still had to return to his place. Originally, she wanted Janet to sit in it, but the woman smiled and shook her head, pushing him into her position.
When Simon sat down, Sandra immediately leaned over and asked, "Simon, are you ready to give your acceptance speech?"
Simon was a little confused: "Huh?"
"Best Editing nominations?" Sandra reminded and tapped him on the shoulder, "You're deliberately playing dumb, aren't you?"
Simon really didn't expect this, shook his head and said, "This kind of nomination with almost zero chance of winning the award, there is nothing to prepare for." ”
"Maybe you'll win," Sandra said, quickly adding a bit of a smug tone, "You could have gotten more nominations, but they're all old-fashioned." ”
Simon immediately made a silent gesture, glanced around, and said, "Be quiet, I won't be able to get the nomination after being heard." ”
"Hehe," Sandra smiled nonchalantly, but added, "If you do win, remember to thank me." ”
"No problem. ”
Sandra nodded with satisfaction, and said, "By the way, what do you do after the award ceremony?"
Simon said, "Go home and sleep." ”
"Wouldn't it? so boring, like an old man," Sandra said, glancing at Janet on the other side, and said, "Why don't we go to Warner's party together?"
"Huh?"
"You know, I took the script from Warner. ”
"Oh. ”
Simon nodded, remembering that next year's Oscar hit. Sandra asked him to read the script some time ago, and Simon remembered that the role she got should have belonged to Michelle Pfeiffer, and Michelle Pfeiffer seemed to have been nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress because of this.
It's just that things have to go back to the beginning of the year, when Vice President A Edlimato, took a large number of stars such as Mel Gibson to ICM, and then, A easily used resources to snatch this role, Warner compared the popularity of Sandra and Michelle, and made a decisive choice. Of course, as a costume literary film, Sandra naturally can't ask for too high a price.
Sandra didn't respond when she heard Simon's oh, and put her shoulder against him again: "Go?"
Because he only got one nomination, Simon didn't prepare for the party, he actually received party invitations from Warner, Orion and other companies, but he didn't have much interest. At this time, listening to Sandra's question, Simon had to look at Janet on the other side and repeated, "Go?"
"Go," Janet replied with a blank look at Simon, and then looked at Sandra, who had been treating her as air just now, "Sandy, haven't you thought about getting a boyfriend?"
Sandra made no secret of it: "I'm working on it." ”
Janet pursed her lips and bared her little white teeth and whispered, "You'll get your face scratched if you do this." ”
Sandra shrugged indifferently: "In that case, I'll have to rely on Simon for the rest of my life." ”
Janet glanced at someone who was leaning on the back of the chair and pretending not to exist: "I scratched his face, do you still want it?"
Sandra smiled and said, "I'll cook him too." ”
Simon listened to the conversation between the two women, which made his spine more and more cold, and hurriedly made a pause gesture: "Don't quarrel anymore, the ceremony will start soon." ”
Janet and Sandra glanced at him with disdain, completely disobedient, and were about to continue bickering, when the staff began to remind the guests to sit down, and the two girls quieted down.
