"This is the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, where the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will host the 79th Academy Awards~~"

With a deep and deep male voice, and thunderous applause from the 3,300 people in the audience, the music sounded, and the large TV screen on the stage of the Kodak Theater slowly began to broadcast two words - "nominee", and an opening film began.

On the screen, more than 100 filmmakers, including Martin Saxis, Clint Eastwood, Leonardo DiCaprio, and other nominees, talked about their feelings about being nominated in fragments.

"You were nominated for the film Lawrence of Arabia."

"Yes."

"Then why didn't you get the prize?"

"Let someone else get it."

"You either make a particularly good movie or you make a particularly bad movie." "I'm crying almost every day." "You can feel the whole room going on in motion." "It's always good to have a second chance." "Every day with movies is full of sunshine."

"We were nominated for Best Picture, Best Director, or whatever." "We were nominated for two Best Supporting Actress and Best Music Editing." "I'm nominating for the third time." "Six times." "So you're going to miss out on Oscar for the eighth time, are you?" "No, I missed it seven times, but this time I won the award." "I've been nominated nineteen times, and I haven't gotten it yet." "Eight times" "Never won. "It's easy to get a prize, everyone can get it." "I've been rejected 4 or 5 times, right, must have I been shady?" "I'll tell you the truth, there was no such thing as an award." "It's just a show." "I don't believe in those distant hopes~~~"

"I'm here to sit on the cold bench." "Every time I sound that sacred moment, I burst into tears......"

"If I win, I'll thank my mom." "My wife." "Mr. Chris, did you see that? The bastard in your eyes got the Oscar~! ”

At this moment, in front of the huge honor of the Oscars, whether it is the top person in this circle or a novice who has just entered this field, everyone is in the same mood, apprehension, expectation, anxiety, and excitement are mixed together, but it is destined that only a small number of them can win the award, and the rest will only become a supporting role that will be forgotten in a flash.

The screen goes out, the lights gradually turn on, and the 81 huge golden sculptures in the back row in the three rows shine brightly and dazzlingly under the lights.

The narrator's voice in the sky above the Kodak Theater rang out: "Ladies and gentlemen, these are the people who ~~ will be nominated for the Oscar this year~~"

A magnificent symphony of heart-warming sounds, the camera from front to back, across the entire Kodak Theater, hundreds of spotlights swaying like stars, making this ocean of 3,300 people seem to be floating and flying in the Milky Way~~brilliant and brilliant~~

The applause rang out like thunder, to all the nominees present ~ There are whites, blacks, Asians in the camera, whether they are superstars or fledgling newcomers, all these faces are the protagonists of tonight~~

"A total of 177 artists, artists from all over the world, are at the peak of their artistic careers, gather at the Kodak Theater tonight, the ladies and gentlemen present tonight are the elite of the elite in their respective fields, many of them, this year may have won countless awards for their outstanding achievements, but tonight is the most grand, is what they are looking forward to, the heaviest gold one, this is the Oscar ~~~"

Amid the rumbling drums, a cheerful saxophone suddenly sounded in the venue, and the blonde hostess Alan DeGeneres, dressed in a red suit, walked out with a smile and waved to greet everyone.

The audience of more than 3,300 guests sitting on the upper and lower floors suddenly burst into more enthusiastic applause, and many guests stood up with smiles, including Anne Hathaway in an off-the-shoulder gown, Will Smith in a black suit, and Jack Nicholson in sunglasses in the front row、......

Li Xiaole sat in the second row of the left area, also smiling and clapping his palms; Scarlett Johansson sat in front of him, a sexy silver evening gown, while Tom Cruise and others on the right, as well as the British gang of "Deadly Magic" in the first row, also welcomed the host with applause.

The camera is very partial to this area where Chinese and British filmmakers gather, and almost a third of the cuts are placed here.

"Thank you so much, friends, what a night it was, let's get started, it's exciting." Alan DeGeneres looked down with ease and said:

"As you can see in the film, tonight, we're celebrating those who have been nominated, which is the opposite of what we've done in previous years, where we mostly just celebrated those who won awards."

The audience burst into laughter.

"Today is very important to me, because this has always been a dream of mine, when I was a little girl, I always dreamed of one day being able to host this Oscar ceremony, and now this dream has finally come true, but unfortunately, in my dream, I should find a director on the stage as my Prince Charming, but it is really a pity that when Prince Charming comes, I am already old~~"

Alan said, the camera naturally turned to the faces of Li Xiaole, who participated in the Oscars for the first time at the age of 24, and Christopher Nolan, a handsome British guy at the age of 36, and a burst of laughter broke out in the audience, Li Xiaole could only smile helplessly at the camera, who called him a young man, everyone can joke about him unscrupulously at every awards ceremony, but this is also good, at least his popularity has never been bad.

However, what surprised him was that the British old man who came with the crew of "Deadly Magic" was thin, thin, thin, and thin-haired, but he glared back at him, and seemed to be very angry.

Li Xiaole felt a little strange, although the actors and directors present were all happy, but in fact, they had a clear position, in the film that opened just now, there was neither their "Iron Man" crew nor the "Deadly Magic" crew, and they sat on the very side, which could not be compared with the treatment of tonight's protagonist "The Departed" and "Letter from Iwo Jima" sitting in the center.

It can be said that whether it is a British filmmaker or a Chinese filmmaker, no matter how popular, they are always an alternative that Hollywood capital wants to marginalize. Why did this little English old man stare at him? If you want to stare at the six high-level people sitting in the middle and back, right......

"I think most people dream of winning an Oscar, so let's give a piece of advice to those kids...... Lower your dreams......

It's fun to be a host, really, it's a very special year again, because this year is the most international Oscars ever, it's a lavish event, with Pethrop Cruz from Mexico, we have ...... Guests from Spain, delegates from Japan, and I think I saw a couple of Americans in there, and of course I mean those who came to fill up...... No one is as good at filling seats as Americans, right? DiCaprio, you say, isn't it? The audience burst into laughter, and Leonardo DiCaprio, who was not nominated, could only laugh self-deprecatingly.

"It's a level playing field and you never know who's going to win...... A lot of British friends have been nominated, very many, but this time there is also a film directed by a Chinese director that has also been nominated a lot, how to say, Americans, you have to be careful, the Oscars are no longer your family party, it's like your handsome British neighbor marrying a beautiful Chinese girl, and we girls and boys are drooling at them, and we don't like us old and vulgar antiques anymore...... Martin, I'm not talking about you, when Clint was playing with guns in the West, you were still hooking up with your first girlfriend in college~"

Alan DeGeneres continued his opening show, frequently amusing the audience, and the audience burst into laughter, and the camera swept over the stars who were ridiculed by Allen from time to time.

It was only after Ellen DeGeneres had completely relaxed everyone that he moved on to today's topic.

"Now, let's welcome today's first pair of presenters, Oscar for Best Actress, Nicole Kidman, and Mr. Bond (Daniel Craig)."

In a thunderous applause, Nicole Kidman dragged a long red dress and walked to the microphone in the center of the stage with Daniel Craig, who looked calm and said directly to the microphone:

"Good evening, tonight's first award at the Oscars is for Best Art Director, Art Director and Set Decorator to create a whole world that allows the audience to experience this dream world in just a few hours, and the films nominated today are all embodied in fantasy worlds, such as Pirates of the Caribbean, Pan's Labyrinth, Deadly Magic and Iron Man......"

Nicole Kidman added, "And the friendly world of Dream Girl, black and white, and we would like to thank all of the nominees for the Best Art Direction Award for their extraordinary work. ”

As the finalists began to be broadcast on the big screen, the audience cheered, Xu Zhen, who was sitting not far from Li Xiaole, looked stiff, how could everyone be nervous and sweating, Wu Wei next to him couldn't help but joke: "Don't be afraid of Xu stammering, you won't win the award, this year's opponent is too strong~~"

"...... Fart...... What do I ...... When are you scared~" Xu Zhensheng blushed and muttered, in fact, he also knew in his heart that there was little hope, Rick Hainriches of "Pirates of the Caribbean", Eugenio Cabarbelo of "Pan's Labyrinth", and Nathan Crowley, the art director of "Deadly Magic", no matter who they were, they are all real art masters, compared to him, Xu Zhen is a small person the size of a sesame mung bean, and the art direction and set are mainly controlled by the director Li Xiaole......

The selected ones were a little nervous, and the media at the scene were also very excited, this is the first direct confrontation between representatives of China, the United States, the United Kingdom, and the three countries at this Oscar, who can take the lead in winning a little golden man? Was it Rick Hainridges who won the award last year, or was it the new British star Nathan Crawley?

"The winner is ......" Nicole Kidman opened the envelope and read softly: "Iron Man" ~~"
