Chapter 288: The Man of Thanks
"Let's look at the list of nominees, 24, "CSI", "Prison Break", ......"
With the sound of Wang Yang's reading, there were bursts of loud applause in the banquet hall, the stage screen and TV screen displayed the logo name of the nominated film, as well as the demeanor of everyone in the drama team, the fans in front of the TV gradually became a little nervous, who will win the award?
HBO's third season of "Six Feet Under" won the best drama series at the 59th Golden Globe Awards in 2002 in the first season, it tells the story of a family specializing in funeral services, rich in life philosophy, since the broadcast is a frequent visitor and winner of the Emmy and Golden Globe Awards; It is the winner of the 58th Golden Globe Awards for Best Drama Series due to the nature of the social situation.
Now in its fourth year, CBS's CSI dominates the series with an average viewership of 25.12 million viewers (No. 2), and has been nominated for the 61st edition after its 59th edition.
The third season of FOX's "24", although it is the trump card of the channel, has an average of only 10.3 million viewers (43 places), but it is also an award giant, and its narrative structure has been widely acclaimed""24" has changed the face of TV dramas, every hour, every minute, every second. Its anti-terrorism theme is timely, with the first season being nominated and losing to "Six Feet Under", the second season being nominated and losing to "The Shield", and now the third impact.
""Prison Break", "Prison Break", "Prison Break"!!" Evelyn and other prison escape fans stared at the TV screen to cheer, Rachel who looked at the stage also shouted silently, and countless fans and enthusiasts around the world who watched TV and computers, must be awarded the drama "Prison Break"!
"It's the most revolutionary, the most innovative and unique series, and every second it controls your nerves, the thrilling beginning, the thrilling end, and you can't take your eyes off the TV screen. "TV-Guide" and many other media have praised it with similar reviews, and the structure and technique have changed the screen pattern; fans of the drama have shouted "the best in history", it is the most popular TV series in 03-04, and there is no one.
Although it lost to CSI with an average of 20.65 million viewers (No. 5), its popularity on the Internet has reached an incredible level, and it is not the more stormy overseas regions, and "Prison Break" is seen as a monster that will sweep all people, teenagers, and other people's choice TV awards.
However, at this stage, the award attribution will not pay attention to the ratings at all, otherwise the awards will be distributed according to the ranking of the results, and the "political incorrectness" of the theme and the relative lack of connotation are the biggest fatal injuries that prevent "Prison Break" from winning the award, but its popularity, amazingness, and NBC's hard work and canvassing for votes, which is stronger than FOX, are all advantages, especially this is the Golden Globe Award.
And everyone knows that the form of "24" can be done for many seasons, and the future will be long, but "Prison Break" is destined to have only one season of prison escape, and if you don't choose it this year, you will probably not see it next year.
How did the media predict this outcome? Either "24" or "Prison Break", both tense suspense dramas with an aura of "revolutionary". Because "Six Feet Under" and "White House" have all been won, "CSI" is not as timely as "24", nor is it as amazing as "Prison Break".
"The winner of the best drama series is ......" Under the attention of more than 1,000 guests and audiences in front, Wang Yang on the stage opened the envelope in his hand, and the sound of paper breaking could be heard in the quiet scene, and the TV screen was divided into five grids, and on the left were the four representative award recipients, all of whom looked calm at this time;
What is the result!?At this moment, the fans of the show held their breath, and the nominees froze their eyes, and in less than a second, their hearts had already burst out, "Prison Break" was taken? Can't get it?...... "YES!!Great!!" Jessica clenched her fists excitedly, and got it!!Maybe others can't see it, but as the person who has been in love for 5 years and has lived together for 3 years and is most familiar with him, she knows very well that this is his joyful smile as a prelude to excitement, and she waved her fist and shouted, it's us!
"Take it down, well done!" Natalie curled the corners of her mouth, maybe others can't see it, but it's a "Wow, what's the joke?" smile, and he will be like this when he is surprised, and the winner will definitely be "Prison Break". "Got it! Congratulations, Amazing Jan. Rachel followed with a smile, a somewhat relieved smile that others might not see, but it turned out to be "Prison Break".
Did you get it? Wentworth-Miller, who was in a suit and leather shoes, felt his heart beat nervously, and he really couldn't see what Wang Yang's smile meant.
Seeing the words "Prison-Break" written on the stationery, Wang Yang was immediately overwhelmed by a surge of joy, what are you kidding? Winning the Golden Globe Award before the first season is finished! This is really great! He wanted to shout out loud with laughter, it's us! But obviously this is not the case, he can't help but smile naturally, and when he wants to read "Prison-Break", he secretly breathes a sigh of relief, the "new glory" of "Prison Break" is not only the ratings, but also the awards!
"Prison Break. ”
"Ahh Jessica, who was arranged at different tables, smiled and stood up to applaud, Natalie, Rachel, and Scarlett Johansson, Charlize Theron, and others in the distance and not far away.
This in itself is a final award for the TV part, coupled with the fact that Magic Young has a high status in the film industry, many people have received his favor, cooperated, or have a lot of opportunities to cooperate in the future, and for a while, the high atmosphere in the banquet hall soared to the most ** tonight, as if this was awarding the best picture.
The fans of "Prison Break" in front of the TV are also excited, no one has an opinion, Michael Schofield is the "most nervous" person on the screen now, and he is a genius with a superb IQ, many "24" hardcore have long been fascinated by him and switched to the camp, "Prison Break" is the best TV series on the planet! Claire kept saying YYES happily, thinking of the depressed appearance of the losers of the war of words, she felt happy!
They said that "TDP" was going to Waterloo, and "TDP" grossed 500 million worldwide, they said that "Prison Break" would be nothing, but unfortunately they were not members of the Foreign Correspondents' Association, and they said "Firefly" and "The Big Bang Theory...... Looking at Wang Yang and several "Prison Break" creators celebrating and hugging on the screen, Claire smiled happily for him and said silently: "This is not the end! Next year, "The Big Bang Theory" will sweep all the TV awards in the comedy category!!"
"Thank you, thank you very much, thank you......" On the stage, after Wang Yang and executive producer Marty Anderstein hugged each other, they took the heavy Golden Globe trophy from the hands of the staff, handed over the nomination list in the other hand, and looked at the crowd in the audience who gradually quieted down, he smiled at the microphone and said: "First of all, thank you to the organizer and Wang Yang for awarding this award to us." ”
There was a very soft laugh in the audience, and Marty Anderstein, who was standing side by side behind Wang Yang, also smiled. In order to show respect for the other nominees, Wang Yang didn't make this funny again, otherwise he would really offend people, he raised the trophy and said with a serious smile: "We are very surprised, it is really a great honor to win this award." I have a lot of people to thank, and now that I'm standing here at this moment, I want to thank the judge who put me in prison, without him! ”
The audience was followed by a burst of exclamation, and laughter and applause in response, this is a blatant provocation and revenge!? Several women who loved him smiled on their faces, this guy is sometimes too stubborn...... The journalists were very excited, and they had to write! The dull 61st had another wonderful tidbit, and sure enough, "Prison Break" was full of Wang Yang's great dissatisfaction and unconvinced!
Now that Wonder Young has responded to the original court verdict in this hugely successful way, Rami Williamston, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times, has come up with the line: "Your mistakes made me legend."
Maybe it's a good thing to be thankful for? Evelyn couldn't frown clearly, she was very dissatisfied with the court's verdict, but "District 9", "Prison Break" ...... She shook her head, and it was all over.
"Haha! It's just a joke, he's really on my list of thanks, but what I want to thank the most is ......" Wang Yang laughed, he had long forgotten what the old man looked like, he just kicked his ass;
With that, he handed the trophy to Marty Anderstein and stepped aside to give up the microphone. Compared with the magic Young, who is accustomed to seeing big scenes and winning bigger awards, Andrestin who stood on the stage for the first time was very excited, standing in the back just now, it was okay, as soon as he touched the trophy, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and his tone was a little trembling with excitement: "It's incredible! It's incredible......"
In a round of applause, the "Prison Break" team walked into the backstage of the hotel after the acceptance speech, and accepted photos and interviews from various media, while the awards in the banquet hall continued.
The Best Actress in a TV Series Drama Series was won by Frances Conroy of "Six Feet Under", and then the actor trophy fell to Anthony Lepaglia of "The Secret Agent", Wentworth Miller, who stepped into the Golden Globe Hall for the first time, lost without suspense, Schofield fans naturally have regrets, but Miller has no sense of loss, and everything has already exceeded his expectations. Best Actor in a Musical/Comedy went to Bill Murray for "Lost in Translation", and the female lead ...... "The winner is ......" five-panel nominees on the TV screen, Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, Diane Keaton, Helen Mirren, Meryl Streep or Peerless, or still charming, and Streep has already won the award tonight, "Meryl Streep, The Devil Wears Prada!" After a cheer and applause from the audience, almost everyone stood up and applauded, Jessica and Wang Yang were no exception, scoring two goals!
These are not for Magic Young or "TDP", purely for the very popular Meryl Streep, and the defeated Diane Keaton is also happy to win the award, Natalie is not unconvinced or unhappy this time, Streep's gorgeous transformation deserves this trophy.
"Thank you to my family, my husband and my daughter...... In addition, I would like to thank Wang Yang, who has made a major change in my acting career. Following Meryl Streep's words on stage, the camera swept over Wang Yang who was smiling at the banquet table, as well as the smiling faces of everyone around him. Meryl Streep held the trophy in her right hand and pressed her chest with her left hand, and she was really emotional, "TDP" brought her a successful transformation and brought unimaginable box office results.
200 million, 300 million, 400 million, 500 million! This is not only a generous box office dividend, this kind of honor is something she has not tried before, and it is as cool as scolding! Looking at everyone, Streep continued to thank him into the microphone: "He is a very amazing director, who gave me a lot of acting advice and inspiration, so that I can play this style of comedy well and appear in such an excellent movie "The Devil Wears Prada"! Thank you, and finally ......"
The media reporters don't care about what she has at the end, they have another good piece of news on their paper, the hotel's press center Reuters reporter is sending a report, Meryl Streep is supporting Wang Yang!
At the end of last year, in fact, in the "TDP" war of words that had just ended, several leading actors naturally said in interviews that ""TDP is very good", but they did not directly participate in the import water war; now Meryl Streep, who has always been low-key and peaceful, openly spoke on the stage, praising the magic and praising "TDP", which undoubtedly shows his attitude, who said that he lost his aura? Who said that "The Demon Wears Prada" is rotten? She Meryl Streep disagrees.
"Seriously, I think both films are eligible to be shortlisted. Natalie applauded Streep, who walked backstage, and said to Wang Yang next to her, that both "21" and "TDP" should compete for best musical/comedy film.
After Howard Shaw won the Best Original Score and "INTOTHEEST" won the Best Original Song, "The Lord of the Rings 3" won two trophies, and "The Crappy Actress and Talented Director" Sofia Coppola successfully won the Best Screenplay with "Lost in Translation", and she is very grateful to her family, especially her father, for their encouragement and support.
Seeing this scene, Wang Yang couldn't help but whisper to Jessica: "Hey, our daughter will also be a director in the future, right?" Then one day, like now, she stood on the stage and thanked me...... Jessica nodded proudly: "But she will thank her mother first." Wang Yang teased her: "Thanks to her mother for cultivating her into a crappy actress, she has the opportunity to become a genius director?" Glancing at the intimate smile between the two, Natalie pursed the corners of her lips.
After presenting Michael Douglas with the Lifetime Achievement Award, Peter Jackson won the 61st Best Director Award without any suspense, New Zealand's big fat man conquered the Golden Globe, and "The Lord of the Rings 3" added another award, Best TV Movie Actor went to Al Pacino who starred in "Angels in America", Afghan film "Osama" won Best Foreign Language Film, and Sean Penn, who became the new Golden Globe winner, was not present, and Clint Eastwood accepted the award for him.
"The winner of Best Actress in a Drama is ...... Charlize Theron, "The Devil Girl"!!" In the thunderous applause, Charlize Theron couldn't help but hug her boyfriend Stuart Townder, and was excited when she came to the stage, she thanked the director of "The Devil" and all the staff, family and friends, and when she read a string of friends' names, she mentioned with a somewhat unexpected smile: "Wang Yang, he just sits there, haha! and ......"
There are more than 1,000 people in the banquet hall, why did Charlize mention Wonder Young? The collaboration of "The Hangover" in '02 is 100% different from "The Devil". Anyway, since the new actress said "he's sitting there", the director had to switch the camera to Wang Yang's close-up. I saw that he was still smiling with his signature sunshine, and when he saw the camera sweeping, he raised his hand and gave a thumbs up.
"The winner of Best Musical/Comedy was ......Lost in Translation!"
"The winner of the best feature film was ...... 'Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King'!"
"Wow!!" The Hilton Hotel was boiling, and the last award of the year had a home, the long-awaited "Lord of the Rings 3"! The audience was sensational, and the high and chaotic applause and shouts were endless, and all the guests and the audience consciously stood up and applauded, laughing and watching Peter Jackson and others walk on the stage excitedly and happily. After all, movie awards are movie awards, and at this time, the decibel level of the banquet hall easily hit a new high tonight, and "Lord of the Rings 3" was in the limelight for a while.
In addition to a TV trophy, Magic Young is empty-handed on the movie side, in 2004 he has no release plan for the time being, and said that "the screen side should concentrate on "Firefly", which means that he will have the next chance to win any Golden Globe Awards or Oscars, at least until 2006.
Regardless of whether "Firefly" is eligible to win the award or not, it will be two years later! Looking at the smiling faces of everyone in the "Lord of the Rings 3" team on the TV screen, thinking of this, Evelyn suddenly sighed, hey! At that time, Wang Yang and Jessica had not divorced, they had been married for two years, right? Maybe they have children.
