Drinking coffee and looking at the "Los Angeles Times" in his hand, Jing Jian was "poofed" and happy. Zhao Xia ate breakfast and glanced blankly: "What's the matter? Can you be silly when you read the newspaper?" In recent days, Zhao Xia seems to have often lost her temper.

"Haha, Xia'er. Jing Jian put down the newspaper with a smile, "My film was nominated for five Oscars, and the funniest thing is that I was nominated for Best Supporting Actor." Hahaha!" This is completely unexpected, it can only be said that now the people of the US government have a good impression of China, and Jing Jian's reputation is also loud enough, there must be a lot of impression points in it.

"Really, you still have a talent for acting?" Zhao Xia also felt very interesting. Suddenly, he said mockingly, "Yes, I will perform in front of a stupid woman like me." ”

"......" Jing Jian picked up the newspaper again and began to pretend to be stupid.

Zhao Xia took a sip of juice angrily: "Why are those film artists blind, will they nominate you?"

"Huh. I spent over $2 million back and forth. Now there are five nominations, and a bonus of 500,000 will be added. Jing Jian explained with a smile.

"Ah, are you here for a bribe?" Zhao Xia was surprised.

"That's called PR! That's a terrible thing to say. Jing Jian said with a smile, "The public relations company hired is a competition within the rules." ”

The Oscars are voted for by more than a thousand members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Although it is forbidden to canvass for money, there are still a lot of marginal balls. For example, many members have faded out of the film industry and can't watch a few movies a year, and some members are already poor. And there's a lot of room for manipulation here.

As a general rule, send a videotape to each member, and that's at least the case. And those with deep pockets, like Jing Jian, all came with the latest video recorder this time. There was also a screening reception, and each member of the participating group received a "small gift". As for private money transactions, they are operated by public relations firms anyway.

Zhao Xia scoffed at Jing Jiantian's shameless show-off: "So that's how you got the nomination? Cheating! Moral turpitude!"

"Eh. Jing Jian smiled, "I'm your man, huh! Don't talk about it, are you interested in participating together? Although you definitely don't have a chance to win an award, you can also meet those big Hollywood stars, all of them are big people?"

"Phew, I'm not going. Look for your Persian cat, your blonde cat!"

Jing Jian shook his head with a smile and continued to read the newspaper. And Zhao Xia was still sulking. A few days ago, she saw Qin Zi from a distance, actually pushing a stroller, thinking that her stomach was so uncompromising, Zhao Xia was already in a hurry......

......

In the end, Zhao Xia still refused to accompany Jing Jian to the award ceremony. However, Jing Jian is very familiar with Zhao Xia's character, and she really doesn't like to show her head very much. So on the day of the award, Jing Jian came to the Holy Citizen Auditorium alone.

The Auditorium of the Holy Citizen in Los Angeles has long been the traditional venue for the Academy Awards. It wasn't until later that it was expanded and broadcast globally that it was changed to a different location. However, on this day, it is the annual event of the film industry. The male and female guests were all in a variety of colors, and under the flashing magnesium lights, they stepped on this glorious red carpet one after another.

Jing Jian walked quickly across the red carpet and didn't linger long, he was mainly here to cheer today, and there was no need to perform in front of fans. When Jing Jian sat in his seat, he found that almost all the crew members had arrived, and even Zhang Wulang had rushed over from Hong Kong.

After greeting and shaking hands one by one, Jing Jian smiled and asked Zhang Wulang: "Fifth brother, how is it in Hong Kong?"

Zhang Wulang shook his head with a smile: "The two films I shot are only over 10 million." Brother Sanmao is good, the one that just finished painting has 24 million, what a good start!"

Jing Jian comforted: "It's okay to make money, what you shoot is a small cost?"

Zhang Wulang said: "There are still many shortcomings in being a director. Jing Shao, if you take charge of the camera in the future, I still want to learn more in Hollywood. ”

Seeing that the award ceremony was about to start, Jing Jian nodded with a smile: "Look at the opportunity." It should be fine!"

This year's Oscars were more interesting and no host was arranged. But the atmosphere was just as enthusiastic. The first was Best Costume and Best Feature-length Animation, which unsurprisingly went to "Dangerous Relationship" and Pixar Animation Factory's "Tin Toys", breaking Disney's long-standing monopoly at the Animation Awards.

However, at the time, no one would have thought that Pixar Animation Factory would create a large number of popular cartoons, such as "Toy Story", "Monster Factory", etc., and even shook Disney's status in cartoons. If it weren't for his boss Steve Jobs returning to Apple and agreeing to be bought by Disney, he might have actually put on a show of "Two Heroes."

A few smaller prizes followed. It's finally time for the first nomination - Best Supporting Actor. When last year's Best Supporting Actress Olympia Dukakis presented the nominees as the guest of honor, and when she read "Bramble", the audience erupted in good-natured laughter. I have to say that Jing Jian is now the most famous Chinese in Hollywood.

However, in the end, it didn't make an upset, and the best supporting actor was won by Kevin Crane, who deservedly performed well in "A Fish Called Wanda". And Jing Jian also gave him warm applause.

The award ceremony continued, still a few small awards, Jing Jian suddenly felt a little strange, and asked Liu Pajin beside him: "Why is Lumina not here?

Lyopakin smiled: "She's backstage, and she'll be a guest performer later." Don't you know?"

Jing Jian smiled: "I haven't been in touch for some days. How about the second part?"

"It's finished and editing. ”

Jing Jian didn't notice that Liu Pakin's smile was a little unnatural: "I will definitely attend the premiere." When is it scheduled to be released?"

"Summer season! The date has not yet been finalized. ”

Between the words, it is already the moment of the second nomination. In Best Original Screenplay, Philip was also nominated. Philip's expression was quite nervous, but when the guest read "Rain Man", he could only sigh regretfully. This time, the opponent is too strong, and "Rain Man" is a classic film both artistically and well-off.

Finally, Lumina's performance appeared, she was cool, youthful and energetic, singing and dancing, which made the atmosphere warm. Especially when she saw Jing Jian below, Lumina also waved mischievously, which caused a burst of laughter, and even the camera gave Jing Jian a few close-ups.

Lyupakin on the side joked: "Bramble, you're going to be in the news again." ”

Jing Jian also looked helpless: "Pure friendship, is it so difficult?"

"Hahaha!"
