Ryan felt a little chill in his body, and he couldn't help but shiver twice, and turned his head to look at Tucker and Jason in the room.

Tucker was now lying on the couch as if he had been unloaded, and he was lying on the couch without bones or tendons, like a pile of rubber covers; Jason leaned against the window and smoked a cigarette, the flickering cigarette butts mingling with the night view of Los Angeles outside the window.

Ryan let out a long breath to calm down the tense spirit, but it was not an easy task, he had to let out another long breath, but even so, his chest still felt very stuffy, even if he loosened the bow tie and shirt buttons, the suffocating feeling of not being able to breathe still brought a strong irritability and frustration.

Three Golden Figures in a Row...... Three Golden Figures in a Row......

This almost dealt them a fatal blow, not only to break their efforts over the past month, but also to completely dissipate the confidence they had accumulated over the past year and a half. When Sofia Coppola announced the winner of the best adapted screenplay, Ryan's first thought turned out to be ...... "Troy" would fail.

Thinking of this, Ryan hurriedly braked and breathed heavily, he couldn't continue to think nonsense, otherwise he wouldn't be far from the destruction of the world. Ryan looked up and hesitated, "Jason? Jason turned his head and cast a puzzled look, Ryan paused, "You don't have any opinions?" ”

Jason spat out a puff of his cigarette, "I've said it before, it's just an Oscar. Even if 'Lost in Translation' upset wins Best Picture, Diorama Pictures can't become one of the top eight studios overnight. Actually, this is what Lance said, Jason's thoughts came to his lips, but he swallowed it in the end, and turned his head to look out the window again.

Ryan took another deep breath, and he knew Jason was right. They have also been brilliant. also appeared on the stage of the Oscars, but after the awards ceremony, Yiqiē had to start from scratch. Because this is Hollywood, the competition is fierce. It took six years for Diorama Pictures to get to where it is now. Chaos Pictures just owns a "City of God", and the huge gap between them still takes time and works to make up.

Rome wasn't built in one day.

The chaos is just to give Lance more opportunities. What's more, "Lost in Translation" didn't lose tonight, and a Best Original Screenplay statuetter was enough to make them invincible. So, he doesn't need to be angry, what he needs is to be calm and then beat Lance one step at a time. "Troy" will be the first footprint.

"Tucker. Tuck. "Ryan finally regained his usual composure, although at this time the flame of anger was still burning in his chest, which could not be extinguished in a short time, but now, he could convert this anger into motivation, defeating the motivation of Lance to destroy Lance." Tucker, we have a mission tonight. ”

Tucker looked up, his expression stunned, he didn't seem to react, and his brain still didn't work. It wasn't until Ryan's eyes burst into anger that he came to his senses, "Ugh. Yes, tonight...... Uh, Jason needs to deal with the guys at Lionsgate and United American Pictures; And then......" Tucker felt that his brain was running too slowly, and he groaned for a long time, and then continued, "The Baldwins seem to have a big project in their hands......"

"Alec-Baldwin, that Baldwin?" Ryan frowned slightly, looking a little surprised.

"No, it's not." Tucker finally got a little normal at this point, "That Baldwin from Baldwin Pictures." Howard-Baldwin. "Alec Baldwin is a well-known entertainment family in the entertainment industry, and the three brothers are all actors; Howard Baldwin, on the other hand, is an upper-class celebrity in New York. Hockey fanatic, owns the Hartford Whalers of the World Hockey League. "They are working on a project. However, I don't want to work with a large company, but I want to work with a medium-sized production company of the same level. ”

After the Golden Globe awards, the "Chronicles of Narnia" cooperation could not be negotiated, and Disney Studios was very interested in this series of novels, believing that it could replicate the miracle of "Harry Potter", so Disney would do its own thing, do everything to ensure quality, and keep all the benefits in their own hands.

As a result, Diorama Pictures had to look for a new project.

Ryan originally heard the "big project", and his brows couldn't help frowning, a "Troy" had already made Diorama Pictures a little unbearable; But when he heard this, Ryan's eyes couldn't help but light up, cooperating with a large film company is really stretched, but cooperating with a medium-sized film company like Baldwin Pictures, the two sides share the risk, and at the same time, the cooperation between the two sides is also equal, which is indeed a good opportunity for Diorama Shadow Tooth.

As for the planning of the 2004 awards season, Jason has already made a draft, and the preliminary negotiations are very smooth, and tonight Jason will discuss the final details of the cooperation with Lionsgate and United American Pictures, and start to select the director and lead role. Add to that the "Good Night, Good Luck" that George Clooney is preparing, and Diorama Pictures is indeed on the right track.

Thinking of this, Ryan couldn't help but clench his fists, "Very good, let's go now." Ryan beckoned to his buddies, ready to put the loss of the awards show behind him for the time being and run the Oscars night wholeheartedly, "And so on. Ryan remembered something again, looked at Jason and Tucker, hesitated, and said, "We're definitely going to meet Lance tonight, and he's definitely the center of attention, but ...... No conflicts are allowed. Ryan said this by looking at Tucker, and Tucker wanted to refute it, but was stopped by Ryan, "Not allowed!" Tonight is ours, we have to take a few important projects, and only by developing us well can we contain Reims. It's like 'Lost in Tokyo', and that's our strength." ”

Ryan originally wanted to say, "What's more, going head-to-head with Lance tonight is like hitting the muzzle of the gun, which is completely self-inflicted." But after thinking about it carefully, this sentence was swallowed and not spoken, "So, ignore him, ignore him directly, and focus on our work, our own work!" ”

When Jason heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "That's what I've always thought!" ”

Ryan nodded, "Well, we'll do it tonight!" ”

Tucker looked at Jason, then at Ryan, and finally nodded weakly, and then walked into the locker room with a look of excitement to change his clothes.

Although the Oscars and Oscars Night are actually two feasts in the same vein, for the people of Vanity Fair who live in the spotlight, maintaining proper etiquette and elegant manners are necessary rules. So, even if there was less than an hour in between, everyone would go back to their accommodation, change into a dress, and head to the Sunset Tower Hotel.

When Ryan and his party arrived at the Sunset Tower Hotel, Oscar Night had just begun, and the fans gathered on both sides of the street at the entrance of the Sunset Tower Hotel were bustling with fans, including many second- and third-tier Hollywood actors, everyone racking their brains to try to sneak in the feast - the guests who could attend the Oscar night were enough to change their fate in Hollywood.

Someone even led a little pig and tried to convince the guards at the door that this little pig was a big star who had recently starred in "Pig Baby" in order to be able to enter the Sunset Tower Hotel.

Ryan adjusted his breathing and walked off the red carpet towards the entrance of the Sunset Tower Hotel. Passing through the boiling crowd at this time, appearing in front of the guards at the door, Ryan showed the invitations of the three people; The guard looked at the names on the invitation with a small flashlight, then spoke the names of the three people into the headset, and then politely said, "Please look up at the camera above." ”

It was about two seconds before the guard smiled and said, "Mr. Kavalaugg, Mr. Toure, Mr. Berkeley, welcome to Vanity Fair' Oscar night." ”

Ryan tugged at the collar of his suit, cleared the guard's level, and stepped on the red carpet all the way, leaving behind all the envious eyes behind him. Soon, Ryan saw a huge lineup of reporters in front of him, in fact, there were only more than a hundred reporters in front of him at most - because most of the reporters were blocked from the entrance, in order to protect the events inside the Oscar night, the entry and exit of reporters was controlled with the strictest, but because all the reporters were kept together, it made the scene look spectacular.

Since Ryan is a producer, he rarely deals directly with reporters, and he is ready to step in. But his footsteps involuntarily stopped, because he saw the figure standing in front of the group of reporters, Lance.

Lance changed into a navy blue dark shirt, with a black suit, the same color can obviously feel different temperament, compared to the black suit that debuted tonight, the suit in front of him looks younger, revealing a kind of youthful wantonness, like the blood remnant sun surging and boiling in the waves, the abstinence/lust temperament seems to be breaking free from the shackles of the night little by little, and the teeth and claws are rushing to the face.

Lance turned his head, and the eyes of the two people suddenly came into contact in the air, and immediately collided with dazzling sparks. Ryan raised his eyebrows slightly, calmly but without losing his momentum to meet Lance's eyes, the powerful aura that regained his high perspective looked straight at the past without showing weakness, and then the corners of his mouth overflowed with a disdainful chuckle, releasing a raging battle intent, and whispered with his mouth, "I'll wait." ”

Then, Ryan straightened his back and took another step, his confident steps did not wait for the call of the reporter at all, and went straight past the interview area, staggered past Lance, and disappeared at the end of the red carpet.

Between the staggered lights of time and space, the long shadows of the two people dragged on the red carpet, there was a momentary interlacing, but it was fleeting, and then it gradually drifted away. (To be continued.) )
