"It was ...... who won the best foreign language film"

On the podium, Michael Douglas opened the envelope and handed it to Catherine Zeta-Jones next to her, who took a look and said, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!"

The applause rang out, and everyone looked at where Ang Lee was.

Li An stood up, smiled from ear to ear, first hugged Xu Ligong next to him, and then hugged Ronan.

"Thank you. Ang Lee whispered to Ronan.

Ronan smiled and clapped without saying anything more.

Ang Lee walked up to the podium in a round of applause, Ronan deliberately glanced at the jade dragon on the other table, after experiencing the Berlin Film Festival stage, this one is a little more mature, and it seems that he has no intention of keeping up.

If Yu Jiaolong followed, it is estimated that the audience would be in an uproar.

"Congratulations. Angela Lindwo said in Ronan's ear.

Ronan turned to her and smiled and said, "You should congratulate Director Lee." ”

The camera camera turned, and Ronan could feel it, and the camera stopped on him for a moment, presumably Angela Lindwow who attracted the attention of the live broadcaster.

In any case, Angela Lindwole is the hottest supermodel today, and the six blue and eight red blood are almost collected.

Ronan is a producer, and no one usually pays much attention to a producer.

Gold medal producers such as Jerry Bruckheimer and Katherine Kennedy, for example, basically do not appear in the media much, and the reporter paparazzi rarely pay attention to them, and there is even less entertainment news.

Mainly for the general public, the producers are not attractive.

Ang Lee received a Golden Globe Award, and the morale of the crew of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was greatly boosted, and everyone was very excited.

Especially for people from China, to win such an important award as the Golden Globe Awards is not just as simple as recognition, there will soon be overwhelming publicity in China, and the fame will instantly spread throughout the country.

Like Jade Jiaolong, which is already very popular, the higher "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" goes in the awards season, the more famous the international movie star becomes.

In fact, most of the fame of the international account comes from this "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Ronan is also happy that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and has completed the preliminary plan, and he is also thinking in his heart that it is time to expand the scale of North American screening.

The ideal situation is that the crew can win another award.

At the moment, there are still two awards left to be awarded, Best Director and Best Feature Film.

George Cruise, who won Best Actor in a Musical Comedy tonight, walked to the podium, said a few jokes, teased a few friends, and began the routine award ceremony.

"The nominees for Best Director are ......" George Clooney said quickly: "Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Steven Soderbergh's "Never Compromise", Ridley Scott's "Gladiator", István Saab's "Sunshine Lover", and Steven Soderbergh's "Drug Network." ”

Steven Soderbergh is double nominated!

If Ronan remembers correctly, the best director of this Oscar is also Steven Soderbergh, who seems to have won the award for "Drug Network", and he has also seen the movie "Drug Network", which is very distinctive, multi-line narrative, and the most impressive thing is that an executive who vowed to fight drugs to the end found that his daughter was addicted to drugs......

The winners were unexpected.

George Clooney announced the results: "The winner of Best Director is, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", directed by Ang Lee!"

Ronan laughed instantly, great, really great, the effort and effort bear fruit, this moment is really cool.

Although he was not the one who won the award, Ronan couldn't help but be excited, the North American copyright of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was completely in his hands, and the two heavyweight awards for Best Director and Best Foreign Language Film, even if it was the Golden Globe Award, were enough to get a bumper harvest!

The money thrown into Embassy Pictures will be recovered exponentially in the theaters!

If you count the offline, it will even be taken back tenfold!

The applause rang out again, and Ronan shook hands with Ang Lee and said, "Congratulations, Director Lee." ”

Ang Lee looked calm, with his usual proper smile on his face, but when Ronan shook hands with him, he could feel Ang Lee's hands shaking a little hard.

In the past, Ang Lee's works have not been nominated for the Golden Globe Award and Oscar, and he has also won the Best Director of the New York Film Critics Association, but it is the first time to win the Golden Globe Award for Best Director!

And it's especially important to his career.

"Riding with the Devil" was so miserable that Ang Lee's reputation in Hollywood was ruined, and this Golden Globe Award for Best Director was enough to make Ang Lee completely turn over.

Of course, Director Li Da has always been running on the broad road of death, success, death, and success.

The awards came to the end, and the best drama film fell to "Gladiator", and Ridley Scott's epic masterpiece won the heaviest award.

But the harvest of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" for Best Director and Best Foreign Language Film has already made Ronan very satisfied.

Two heavyweight awards, enough to make "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" the focus of the media before the Oscar nominations are announced!

Previously, it was Embassy Pictures and Zongheng International that spent money to hire the media to do publicity.

Next, there will be countless media outlets that will take the initiative to report on "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and interviews or program invitations can make the crew soft.

The Golden Globe Awards ceremony ended, but the guests in the banquet hall did not disperse, they gathered together to eat and drink, and the award-winning crew was surrounded by laughter.

"Cheers to success!" Ronan said loudly, raising his glass.

All the crew members of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" gathered at this table and toasted together!

Although this is only a stage victory, it does not prevent a small celebration.

Angela Lindwo celebrates with the crew as if she were one of them.

"Congratulations, Ronan. Angela Lindwo thought specifically this time: "Congratulations on the release of a successful film. ”

"Thank you. Ronan took a glass of champagne, clinked glasses with Angela Lindwoon, and drank it all.

Angela Lindwo is just scratching the surface, alcohol is one of the natural enemies of models, and self-disciplined supermodels don't get too much alcohol in it.

Ronan approached García Rodriguez and said, "Tomorrow morning, all the Embassy Pictures executives in Los Angeles have a meeting. ”

Garcia nodded and said, "I've already notified you, and I'll have someone text again to confirm now." ”

The award is in hand, but the trophy has little to do with Embassy Pictures, how to turn the popularity and influence that the award will inevitably bring into actual market revenue, this is what Embassy Pictures has to do.

The $8 million North American copyright buyout and nearly $6 million have been invested in public relations and distribution, and Embassy Pictures is not charitable, of course, it wants to ask for returns.

The banquet has not yet ended, and people from the media have already come over and want to do an exclusive interview for the crew as soon as possible, and a person in charge of ABC TV even invited Ang Lee to take the main creative staff to "Good Morning America" together.

It is conceivable that the publicity momentum behind "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will be even more violent.

Ronan also has a new understanding, many people say that the Golden Globes are the vane of the Oscars, perhaps not referring to the overlap of the two awards, but the publicity effect caused by the winners of the Golden Globes.

The overwhelming media coverage will put the winners in the spotlight of more Oscar judges, and even those who vote with their feet will give preference to familiar names.

At about ten o'clock in the evening, the crowd in the banquet hall gradually dispersed, and Ronan took Angela Lindwo out of the hotel.

The January night was a bit chilly, and before Ronan left the hotel, he took off his blazer and draped it over Angela Lindwo.

Angela Lindwo enjoyed Ronan's attentive care and returned with a big smile.

The two got into the car, and Ronan asked the driver to go to the hotel to see Angela Lindwo first.

"If you're not busy with work in New York, why don't you spend a few more days in Los Angeles?" Ronan said, "just relax." ”

Angela Lindwo nodded and said, "I have five days off this time. "Models are busy, but I spend my spare time in North America," she laughs. ”

Ronan said, "How does it feel tonight? Hollywood awards shows are different from the fashion industry, right?"

"Pretty much. Angela Lindwo said with a smile: "Actually, the two circles are very closely connected. ”

Ronan agreed with this and said: "There is a lot of intersection between movies and fashion, and many supermodels will make cameos in movies. ”

Angela Lindwo said: "Chances are I also making a cameo in the film you made?"

Ronan hurriedly said, "I can't ask for it. Anji, you can't go back. ”

Angela Lindwo joked, "Then you're going to give me a high salary." ”

"Okay. Ronan knew she was joking, "No problem. ”

While talking and laughing, the car stopped in front of the Four Seasons Hotel, and the two got out of the car, Angela Lindwo walked into the hotel first, and Ronan followed.

Angela Lindwo took off her blazer and handed it to Ronan: "You go back and rest early." ”

Ronan took it, put it on his arm, had no intention of leaving, looked at Angela Lindwo's fox-like eyes, and said tentatively, "I'll send you up first." ”

Angela Lindwo looked at Ronan, hesitated slightly, and finally nodded: "Okay, if you're not in a hurry, go sit with me for a while." ”

Ronan smiled and said, "No hurry. ”

Angela Lindwo grabbed Ronan's arm, and the two entered the elevator room together, and the assistant who followed behind had just entered the hotel at this time, and saw Ronan and Angela Lindwo going upstairs together, and immediately stopped.

"Let's go up later. The assistant was very conscious: "How embarrassing it is to enter an elevator at this time." ”

A pair of handsome men and beautiful women, they look very compatible, what else can happen when they enter the same room in the hotel so late?

Ronan and Angela Lindwo took the elevator upstairs and walked through the quiet hallway to a luxurious suite, where Angela Lindwo swiped the door and invited, "Come in, Ronan." ”
