Chapter 930: Where's Daddy?
"He doesn't have enough respect for the Academy and the Oscars. ”
Looking at Matthew Horner's location, an old man with gray hair wearing glasses said to Tom Sherrak, "You shouldn't have gone for him. ”
Tom Sherak shook his head, "Bill, do you know how big the funding gap is for museum construction?"
He walked towards the theater hall first, waited for the gray-haired old man to follow, and continued, "Who in Hollywood doesn't know that Matthew Horner isn't interested in the Oscars?
The gray-haired old man didn't answer.
Tom Sherak sighed, "Matthew Horner is the real rich man in Hollywood, he's the richest man in Hollywood, and when it comes to finances, Matthew Horner is even richer than Spielberg and George Lucas." ”
Bill agrees with this, who doesn't know that when it comes to personal wealth accumulation, if Matthew Horner is the second in the self-humble circle, who dares to say that he is the first in the circle?
Matthew Horner is Hollywood's recognized money-making machine!
Even, some people are saying that he is already the richest man in Hollywood.
"Is he willing to donate?" asked Bill.
"I don't want to. Tom Sherak shook his head again, "This man is too shrewd and cautious to be unmoved. ”
He waved his hand, "Forget it, let's find another channel." ”
The people in the lounge walked into the theater hall one after another, and Matthew found his seat and waited alone for the awards ceremony to begin.
Some people next to him also took the initiative to come over to say hello, and he responded politely one by one.
But to Matthew's surprise, the seat on the left quickly took on an old acquaintance.
Angelina Jolie walked over alone, looked at the card on the seat, then at Matthew, and sat down.
The two sat next to each other, and neither could pretend to be blind.
Matthew took the initiative to say hello, "Good evening, Julie." ”
Angelina Jolie nodded at him, "Good evening, Matthew." ”
At this moment, her mood is quite complicated, and no one knows better than her how down the superstar next to her has been.
But when a person becomes famous, especially like Matthew Horner, those humble experiences in the past have become beautiful conversations, and evidence of hard work despite difficulties and dangers.
Hard work? Yes, but more often than not, it is despicable.
Since breaking up with Brad Pitt, she has looked back on her experience in the past ten years and found that there are many things that don't make sense, and if you add Matthew Horner, it seems to make sense.
She successfully divorced Johnny Lee Miller, who asked her for the so-called videotape, and then gradually disappeared from Hollywood......
Even, she suspects that her entanglement with Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt is inseparable from this guy.
Unfortunately, no one or anything can prove this speculation.
Matthew looked at Angelina Jolie's tense face and sighed in his heart, strictly speaking, Angelina Jolie helped a lot in his process of entering Hollywood, especially in the beginning.
The first role in "Soul Shifting Girl", without Angelina Jolie, will definitely not be able to get it, without that role as a basis, with Helen Herman's unprofitable character back then, I am afraid he will not be signed.
And the acting training class, which is the foundation of his career, also comes from Angelina Jolie's introduction.
At the beginning of his career, the bald teacher in the acting class helped a lot.
Now that I think about it, these are all related to Angelina Jolie.
While Angelina Jolie helped him more out of a trade, the fact that she helped was real.
In this respect, he is also a standard ungrateful.
I didn't do much else, but it is always an indisputable fact that I even took Angelina Jolie with me when competing for "Mr. and Mrs. Smith".
He doesn't regret it, if he does it again, he will still do it without hesitation.
It's just that...... Some are nostalgic for the past.
Suddenly, Matthew understands the old men of the academy a little, as people get older, they will always remember the past, miss some people and things that were once good or fought for, the old men in Hollywood remember the so-called golden age, and when he is older, he also begins to remember what he looked like when he was in his teens and twenties.
This kind of thing is called feelings, just like when I was on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, I knew that Michael Bay's "Transformers" was bad, but I would still watch it, and I watched it repeatedly, just for the feelings of Optimus Prime and Megatron when I was young.
It's like Disney's Star Wars that is preparing to restart, what makes them full of confidence is also the feelings of the audience.
"Julie, what have you been up to lately?" Matthew took the initiative to speak, "You look a lot thinner than you did when we first met. ”
The current Angelina Jolie is so thin that she is out of shape, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is skinny.
Angelina-Jolie was a little surprised, glanced at Matthew, and said lightly, "What else can you do, work, filming, charity......" Her tone suddenly became warm, "I also have to take care of the children." ”
Matthew nodded lightly and said calmly, "I suddenly realized that I owe you a word of thanks. ”
"You don't owe me a word of thanks. Angelina Jolie said unceremoniously, "You owe me a word of sorry." ”
Matthew smiled, ignoring Angelina-Jolie's words, and said, "Julie, thank you for the help you once gave me. ”
Angelina-Jolie looked at Matthew and could see that he wasn't joking, and after a while, she nodded slowly, "You're welcome." She exhaled softly and suddenly said, "I don't know if it's my luck or misfortune to know you." ”
Hearing this, Matthew was not embarrassed at all and asked, "How do you say that?"
"You helped me get rid of that jerk Johnny Lee Miller. Angelina Jolie said directly, "Pumped Winona Ryder's bitch face, but ......"
She looked at Matthew and whispered, "But my children have lost their father!"
Matthew, of course, won't admit the accusation, "Pitt snatched those two items from me. ”
He deliberately accentuated his tone in the grab.
Angelina Jolie shook her head, "Forget it, I don't want to argue with you, I don't have any evidence, for the sake of what I once helped you, I hope you don't pay attention to Brad Pitt anymore, he can only make bad movies for some fourth- and fifth-rate small studios to pay off his debts." ”
"Anyway, he's the father of all three of my children. ”
She can't ask where Dad has gone, she has to tell the children, go to the San Fernando Valley, right?
Although they broke up completely, because of the relationship with the children, she occasionally inquired about Brad Pitt's news, and some time ago I heard that someone from the San Fernando Valley took the initiative to find Brad Pitt, and on the condition of repaying his debts, he lured Brad Pitt into the San Fernando Valley to shoot a romantic action movie.
If it turns out to be true, how will she and Pete's three children meet in the future?
She was very suspicious that it had something to do with Matthew next to her.
Matthew shook his head slowly, "Julie, Pete's matter has nothing to do with me. ”
The matter of pit Brad Pitt involves Disney, and he will never admit it, and since Brad Pitt went bankrupt, he has not paid attention to the former Hollywood star anymore.
Angelina Jolie said, "I thank you for the children. ”
Matthew stretched out his right hand and answered the question, "Julie, we're all old friends. ”
Angelina-Jolie hesitated for a while, thought in silence for a while, and finally slowly raised her right hand and shook it with Matthew, "Thank you." ”
Matthew withdrew his right hand and didn't say anything more, so much had happened, and he couldn't be friends with Angelina Jolie, but there was no need to become an enemy.
Is this considered a meeting with a smile and a grudge?
Immediately, Matthew's attention turned to the right-hand side, where a young blonde girl had just passed.
"Hello. Matthew took the initiative to say hello.
The blonde girl had already seen Matthew, immediately turned her head, and said with a smile, "Hello, Matthew." She introduced herself, "I'm ......."
Matthew interrupted her, "Don't say it, let me guess who you are." ”
Hearing this, the blonde girl naturally knew that Matthew might know him, but she still expected him to say his name.
How many girls can make Matthew Horner remember?
Matthew looked at her thoughtfully, nodded, and said confidently, "You're Miss Olsen." ”
Surprise appeared on the girl's face instantly.
"Mary and Ashley have seen both. Matthew rubbed his chin slightly, "So, you're the youngest of the Olsen sisters, and you're Elizabeth!"
The girl covered her mouth, and the surprise on her face was not faked.
"Hello, Miss Elizabeth Olsen. Matthew introduced himself very formally, "I'm Matthew Horner, and it's a great honor to meet you. ”
Elizabeth Olsen hurriedly said, "No, no...... Matthew, it's my pleasure. She tapped her chest, calming her breathing a little heavily, "You call me Liz, that's what my friends call me." ”
The two quickly chatted and didn't stop until the awards ceremony began.
This time it was Billy Crystal who presided over the award ceremony, and last year's double yolk egg can be said to be a fiasco, and the academy had no choice but to re-invite Billy Crystal back.
The host of the previous edition used a double yolk egg, co-hosted by James Franco and Anne Hathaway, which can be included in the negative teaching materials of failure.
Especially James Franco, there are many rumors in the circle with reliable sources, saying that Rotten Lanlan knocked on drugs before the start of the awards ceremony, and many strings of words did not follow the script at all, which made Anne Hathaway's partner tired of coping.
What's even more exaggerated is that James Franco called Anne Hathaway a "big-mouthed monster" backstage in front of everyone, saying that she was as dull as a rock.
Since then, Anne Hathaway's nickname has quickly spread all over Hollywood, and she has also been at odds with James Franco.
This time, there were not so many accidents, everything was in order, and even the final winner was not surprised.
Harvey Weinstein's "The Artist" won the Best Director, Best Picture and Best Actor awards in one fell swoop, becoming the biggest winner.
