Chapter 920: Scared
Time is passing day by day in such a hectic way, and the Golden Globe Awards have finally arrived.
The competition for this year's Golden Globes is still fierce, and "The Lord of the Rings 3" is undoubtedly the movie that has attracted the most attention and has the most championship appearance.
Leila didn't compete at the Golden Globes last year, and although she did so for a reason, it was impossible not to speculate when she thought of the unpleasantness that happened last year. Unfortunately, last year's Golden Globe Awards ratings were seriously diving, so this time, the Golden Globe Award people sent an invitation to Leila early in the morning, as if they had forgotten the unpleasantness they had had, and asked her to bring the crew to this awards ceremony.
What kind of person is Leila? That's definitely the person who will definitely eat it unceremoniously when the benefits are delivered to her. In her heart, the Golden Globe Awards can't be compared with the Oscars, but it is also a more important award in the world, if she can get it, why should she launch it.
So she not only wants to participate, but also participates happily. Not to mention that the Golden Globes don't dare to do it again like last time, even if it leaves Leila's side empty-handed again, it won't be "The Lord of the Rings 3" that is unlucky.
If the same thing were to happen again, the impartiality of the Golden Globes would surely be more seriously questioned. And with the number of fans of Leila, as well as the fans of "The Lord of the Rings" itself, encountering such a thing will definitely squirt the Golden Globe Award to death.
In this case, what reason does she have not to participate?
To participate, walking the red carpet is an important step. Every time she and Roy show on the red carpet, it is one of the most anticipated by fans, not only because they can see her up close, but also because they can see the dresses of the two as a couple.
Leila is notoriously low-key, rarely attending events, and even receiving very few interviews. But I don't know if she has a topicality on her, don't look at her low-key when people can't feel her existence, but once a topic pops up, it's the rhythm of headlines every minute.
Her fans are doing it happily and painfully. Happily, she is a rare and prolific director in Hollywood, and on average, one of her films will be released almost every year. The painful thing is that she doesn't seem to have the consciousness of a star at all, and it's not easy to understand her things.
But just as she was about to participate, a piece of news came that shocked everyone who knew the news. That is, this year's Golden Globe Awards will have no red carpet, no guests, no awards ceremony, and even the banquet and party after that, some will only be a press conference!
What happened? Leila was taken aback by the sudden news. The Golden Globe Awards are gone, so what about her awards?
"Have you forgotten?" Demi, who brought the news, looked at her boss curiously: "The screenwriters' strike that started in November last year, and the Golden Globe Awards were only affected. It seems that the actors' union also refused to attend, and then it became like this. ”
The words "Writers' Strike" finally evoke Leila's memory. From the end of '07 to the beginning of '08, the 100-day writers' strike was also famous in the entire film history. How could she have forgotten about this?
Although she also writes scripts, she writes and directs them herself, so she does not join the screenwriters' union. There were also familiar actors who tested her tone before the strike, after all, she is considered a significant authority in Hollywood. She remembers that she seemed to have said casually that she was in favor of the strike, but there it was

At that time, she was still working in the group, so she did not wade into the troubled waters when the strike broke out.
In addition, her screenwriters are all young writers, and she is a person who will not treat her subordinates badly, and although those people are forced to participate in the strike, they have already completed the work that should be done in advance. So this strike action, which brought huge losses to the whole of Hollywood, had the least impact on Leila's company.
Didn't you see that she, the person who is the boss, forgot that there is such a thing?
Leila really put this behind her. She was too busy, and the average person couldn't get close to her, let alone tell her about the strike. Originally, she often brushed FB and watched the news or something, but recently, all kinds of things have entangled her in no time, and the little time left is still divided by Roy, so she was perfectly isolated in this turmoil.
Funnily enough, her subordinates, whether Demi or Louise or Roy, thought she hadn't even mentioned it because they weren't happy to see it. After all, she also belongs to the leadership class, and she will also have a lot of connections with screenwriters. And this matter basically had no impact on the company, so they didn't mention it in front of her.
So it turned out that Leila didn't know anything about it, and she didn't notice it at all. And his original plan to rely on the Golden Globe Awards to slap those people in the face also ended tragically.
Seeing that the boss had been silent, Demi thought that she was "sure enough" unhappy because of this incident, so she also showed some worries: "I don't know when it will end, I hope it won't affect the Oscars." I heard that both the Golden Globe Awards and the Oscars have negotiated with the Writers Guild, hoping to let go of the day of the awards, but the results have not been negotiated. ”
"I see, you go get busy first. Leila's face was as usual, and she didn't seem to be affected by the news at all. But after the beauty secretary left, her face suddenly collapsed, and she had no love for "I want to be quiet, don't ask me who Jingjing is".
When Roy came to the office to pick her up, he saw her bleak expression as she looked at the sunset with such an expression.
"What's wrong?" he walked over and kissed her on the forehead.
"I just heard that the Golden Globes have become a press conference. Layla sighed.
Roy smiled, "What should I be, did you only know about this today?"
Layla's eyes widened, "When did you find out?"
"Two days ago, I was told by the Screen Actors Guild not to participate in this year's Golden Globes. My agent also warned me not to attend even if I was invited. People who say they are on the front line will not go unless they can definitely get that award. ”
I also know that those actors and big-name directors who are competing for awards will definitely not be able to stand still stupidly and wait for the results to be announced. If it's okay for yourself, how embarrassing would it be if you read someone else's name? Even for the sake of the face of their own stars, agents will not allow their artists to attend that kind of occasion.
The corners of Lyra's eyes twitched when she heard him say this. Everyone knows that she is alone, but she is kept in the dark?
"Why didn't you tell me? Don't you know that I've been preparing a dress for the Golden Globe red carpet lately?"
