CIM Group has built a new entertainment complex at the junction of Hollywood Avenue and Highland Boulevard, near the Chinese Theatre, which began on November 9 last year. And an agreement was reached with the Oscars, and the Oscars for the next 20 years will be held here.

Without a doubt, it's a very good deal!

Because the Kodak Group, which produces films, spent $74 million to buy the naming rights of this theater for 20 years!

From then on, this is the Kodak Theatre!

Don also has a lot of regrets about this matter, if it weren't for the stiff relationship between him and Kirk Douglas, he would also want to bid.

It's called IMAX Theater, Netflix Theater, or Rose Theater, Pixar Theater, all of which are very good.

Of course, the best is the Dolby Theatre!

But it doesn't matter, the digital age has arrived, and the Kodak Group will not let go of the film industry, so that the world's giant groups will also degenerate rapidly.

That's the power of technology!

When Kodak has no spare money to pay the naming fee, it will not be too late for Don to make a move at that time. At that time, Donn's power must have been extremely inflated, and even if Kirk Douglass interfered, it would not work.

On March 24, 2002, the 74th Academy Awards were held at the Kodak Theatre.

Donn held Nicole Kidman, the heroine of "A Beautiful Mind", on the left, and Natalie Portman, the heroine of "Juno", on the right, making an unusually high-profile appearance.

Last year's Oscars, Donn was cautious, for fear that the broadcaster ABC would deliberately smear it.

Now I'm not afraid, the broadcaster is still ABC, but Don En can be fanfare and unscrupulous!

Michael Eisner must not have dared to do anything about it.

This year's Oscars have been greatly affected by the terrorist attack, and it can be seen that this year's security team has increased significantly compared with previous years, and the red carpet grandstand seats before the party will increase reservation restrictions, and applicants will be randomly selected and subject to background checks.

In addition, there are several other highlights - Woody Allen will appear, Oscar tribute montage, and whether Natalie Portman will win Best Actress......

At the beginning of the ceremony, Don sat in the middle of the crew of "A Beautiful Mind" and "Juno", with Nicole Kidman on the left smiling and Natalie Portman on the right.

"A Beautiful Mind" is the most politically correct of all the films, with a total of eight nominations......; Perhaps the most politically incorrect of all the films, it was nominated for Best Screenplay and Best Actress.

In addition, the musical and dance film "Moulin Rouge" also received 7 nominations.

"Originally, director Ruhrmann wanted me to play the female lead in "Moulin Rouge", but at that time, I wanted to shoot "A Beautiful Mind", so I refused. Nicole Kidman whispered in Donn's ear.

Baz Luhrmann is an Australian director, and after failing to contact Nicole Kidman, he found Naomi Watts as the lead role, and the latter also successfully won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress nomination.

The "Aussie Gang" is really united.

Don smiled and quipped, "What, you regret it?"

Nicole Kidman shook her head, "What's the use of regretting? Besides, Naomi didn't get the nomination, but "A Beautiful Mind" ...... Probably I'll be given an Oscar. ”

Donn lowered his voice, "Trust me, Nicole, you will definitely win the Best Supporting Actress of this year!"

"Lend you good words!"

Nicole Kidman smiled.

The ceremony soon began, with the first guest, Tom Cruise, taking the stage and introducing legendary filmmaker Errol Morris to commemorate the art of montage.

Then, it's Osao's first award - Best Supporting Actress!

Benicio del Toro, the winner of the last year's Best Supporting Actor, took the stage, opened the envelope in front of the crowd, and read out the name of the winner aloud: "Nicole Kidman, "A Beautiful Mind". ”

"Buzz!"

The audience stood up and applauded enthusiastically.

Nicole Kidman got up slowly, with a slight tear in her eyes, hugged Donn tightly, and then hugged Natalie Portman, Russell Crowe and others one by one, took a deep breath, held the corner of her skirt slightly with her right hand, and walked up to the podium elegantly.

……

After an incoherent speech, Academy President Frank Pearson took the stage to give an opening speech and welcome the guests to the ceremony.

Nicole Kidman also came back from the backstage at this time, holding a heavy little golden figure in her hand, her face was ruddy, and she was trembling with excitement.

"Don, you're great!"

At this time, she couldn't wait to throw herself into Tang En's arms, take what she wanted, and let you pick it up.

She was so happy.

It's an Academy Award!

The first actress in Australia to receive such an award!

In recent years, the "Australian Gang" has united and worked hard to expand its territory in Hollywood, and it has indeed achieved great results.

Mel Gibson won the Oscar for Best Director, and Jeffrey Rush won the Oscar, but among the actresses, there has been no performance.

Now, Nicole Kidman has finally made a breakthrough!

She represents all Australian actresses, proving that they too can have a place in Hollywood!

And this also shows that Nicole Kidman's position as vice president of the "Australian Gang" hometown association is well deserved, and she is the first Australian actress!

For all the reasons that come down to it, it's impossible not to get excited.

Don held her hand, found that her palms were sweaty, and smiled: "Relax, you are a big star, just an Oscar-winning supporting actress." ”

Last year, Natalie won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress with "Soul Girl"!

Nicole Kidman shook her head, unable to hide her excitement, "You don't understand, you don't understand what the Oscars mean to us Australian actors, you are an American, you don't understand the difficulties of us foreigners." ”

"Are Americans ......?"

Don was slightly in a daze.

"By the way, how do you know I'm going to win this award?" Nicole Kidman was not yet excited, and grabbed Don and kept talking.

Next came the Best Editing Award, "Unsinkable" won the award, but this award was of little significance, and Don En laughed with her, "I'm very simple, the Oscar philosophy has two things: first, political correctness, and second, balanced art." "A Beautiful Mind" is the greatest political correctness, but I can't win the Best Director award, for the sake of balance, you have to win it anyway. ”

"Huh?" Nicole Kidman's face was pale, and even the joy after winning the award was diluted a little, "You can't win the award? It's so unfair, "A Beautiful Mind" is so good, you are the biggest hero!"

Don had already figured it out, and said lightly: "Not to mention that there is Kirk Douglas as a hindrance, even if there is no one, it will be difficult for the Oscar to award me the Best Director Award, I am too young." Think about "Titanic" a few years ago, isn't that the case? I didn't win the Best Director award, but Kate Winslet won Best Actress. ”

"This is the art of balance?"

"Yes. ”

Nicole Kidman was suddenly a little disappointed, "But I don't want to fulfill myself by sacrificing you." ”

Tang En hooked her palm, blinked quickly, and laughed in a low voice: "What you love me, don't go to your heart." ”

Nicole Kidman gave him a coquettish look, then leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Australian actress, tell me who you like." ”

Don almost laughed, a look of teaser, "Can you do it?"

Nicole Kidman looked serious, "What do you say?"

Don squeezed his eyes, "What about you?"

Nicole Kidman glared at him and snorted. After half a minute, he whispered, "If you want it, just ask me." ”

Don's face flashed with smugness that he couldn't hide.

Natalie pinched his thigh and snorted, "Look at your expression, you know it's not good!"

"Hey, hey. ”

Don enjoyed the feeling of hugging left and right, and leaned over to tease Natalie again, "She was thanking me just now, and you won the award in a while, how do you want to thank me?"

Natalie gave him a blank look, "Won?

"If you don't even have a dream, what's the difference between it and salted fish?"

"What do you mean?"

Donn coughed, "I mean...... If you do win, what are you going to give me?"

Natalie bit her lip to look at him, and said angrily, "Your thoughts are so evil!"

"Ahh

Natalie snorted, "You don't have to say it, I know it too." ”

Don En smiled and asked, "Then tell me, what am I thinking?"

"You must be trying to ...... You want me and Scarlett to stay with you...... Monkey business. Natalie's face was slightly hot.

Don En widened his eyes in surprise, "Nat, you've figured out all my paths!"

Natalie cocked her nose and said, "You have a mind full of women, what's so difficult?"

"Huh. Don didn't explain, "Do you agree?"

"What?"

"We're with Scarlett. ”

Natalie's face turned cold and she snorted, "Dream!"

"I can help you get an Oscar. ”

"Then wait until we win the award!"

Natalie pouted slightly.

Tang En smiled slightly, very angry, and said in a low voice: "That's okay, even if I meet a lot of big beauties at the Vanity Fair party today, I promise to go home and live!"

This topic made Natalie feel very awkward, of course she was looking forward to the Oscar-winning actress, but she was also nervous, anxious and uneasy about the absurdity of Donn and Scarlett.

Her family is very traditional and conservative, and she filmed "The Soul Shifter", which has a scene of kissing Nicole Kidman, but when she returned home, she was severely criticized by her father, thinking that it violated her faith and blasphemed God.

If you roll the sheets with Donn and Scarlett......

Although she had never done such a thing, she had communicated with many women in Mid-Levels Manor and knew what would happen when the three of them were together.

It is not uncommon for women to kiss women.

She doesn't reject Scarlett, but she has a grudge.

"Cirque du Soleil is here, watch the show, I like it so much!"

Natalie pointed to the darkened stage and immediately changed the subject.

Next up is Cirque du Soleil, one of the world's leading theatre companies, performing a dance repertoire inspired by film and visual effects.

Tang En was arrogant, "Do you like it? It's simple, I'll buy it and give it to you!"

The troupe business, Tangen Pictures will be involved sooner or later.

It's like Disney.

Not to mention Broadway musicals and Las Vegas fantasy shows, such a business is indispensable in amusement parks alone. ()
