Jenny's feelings about this Tony Award may be the most complicated one on the team, which is not to say that she values this award very much, on the contrary, she does not know what to think of the nomination given to her by the Tony Award.

After getting along with Cesare for so long, she probably has a certain understanding of the ability of this supergod agent, Cesare can indeed be said to be a very rare brokerage genius, and also has a unique career foundation. He started the industry at the age of 20, and seven years later, he now has at least five or six A-List artists in his hands, as well as some B-List artists she doesn't know how many film careers she knows, even if he is not the only film agent for these artists, which is a remarkable achievement, and she estimates that in a few years, Cesare will be able to attack the company's limited partner status.

But that's not to say that Cesare is omnipotent, and although he has always been unfathomable in front of her clients, according to Jeanne's observations over the past year or two, Cesare is actually on the rise in his career, and he has been taking every opportunity to continue to cultivate and refine his network. For example, when she was put to star in "Chicago", he used this to implement the same relationship with Rob. Marshall and James. The friendship between Schubert's two key figures turned an acquaintance into a partner who had worked together on a project, and before that, Cesare's Broadway connections should have been a blank slate, and there were not many places to use it.

Perhaps because of this, Cesare was not very enthusiastic about the Tony Awards in the first place, and the whole thing was always run by James, and Jenny's team tried to cooperate. It cannot be denied that this attitude has also affected Jenny, so she has never had much real sense of winning the award, even if James has blown the sky before March, and feels that this award is in her pocket, Jenny has never really believed his words. - Although James is also very shrewd and capable, his credibility in her mind is certainly not comparable to Cesare's.

And after she left Broadway and returned to Los Angeles, the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean" and the Oscars ...... After James told Judy at the end of May that he had given up the public relations of the Tony Awards, Judy slightly assessed the Tony Award award tendencies and the public relations scale of "Hairspray", and wisely gave up his own money into public relations - the new play needs the Tony Award to attract audiences, and the investment in public relations is certainly not comparable to that of the Schubert Theater, Not to mention Jenny, who still owes a lot of money to the bank, and fighting for public relations fees with others is a battle that must be lost.

At that time, the whole team was spinning for the Oscars, and at the regular meeting, Judy also mentioned a word to Cesare and Jeanne, and Cesare also told Jeanne about adjusting his mentality during the awards season: he has to lay out awards for at least seven or eight clients a year, not to mention Judy, this kind of pre-game warm-up period is widely optimistic, and it is not uncommon for dark horses to steal all the limelight by dark horses a few days before the deadline for nominations. After all, there are only a few awards, and unless it is a supergod-level work, it is impossible to say that the award is a must-win. Since they can't come up with the money, and the Tony Award isn't that important, it's not bad to mix up the nominations first.

Later, after the explosion of "Pirates of the Caribbean", the Tony Award is basically not a matter, among the four awards in the entertainment industry, Hollywood values the Oscar and Emmy more, of course, the Tony Award is not too high for industry insiders, the first is because if the artists who have been recognized by the Oscar star on Broadway, Broadway will almost give awards to satisfy their desire to collect, and second, many Tony Award winners and nominees have mediocre performance in Hollywood, not even C-list. Jenny's critical acclaim, audience popularity and 700 million box office in "Pirates of the Caribbean" are the basis for her to rise to the list, and the Tony Award is certainly good, but it is nothing if it is not.

Therefore, this time to attend the Tony Awards, there was no tension in the team, it was just another fashion show, taking the route of stealing the limelight for Best Actress by sponsoring clothing, jewelry and makeup, and popular performances. ――Of course, you can't waste such a good exposure opportunity, can you? It's a show with six to seven million viewers.

And although she has been calm, as if she doesn't care about this award at all, and even attracts Mary's praise for her psychological quality, Jenny's mood is not so calm, but her heart may not be understood by others at all - Jenny really doesn't care about not winning this award, in fact, she finds that she may secretly hope that she can't win this award, and if she does, she may still be a little uneasy.

She is not a person with flawless morals, Jenny herself knows this, but she has one character that has not changed, that is, unless she is driven to a dead end, she will still try not to break her bottom line. When she auditioned, she felt that there was no burden to use her acting gold finger, Hollywood auditions are a game process, you are the second generation of stars and the second generation of directors, and you have a gold finger, so it's nothing for me to open an acting gold finger. Even when she said that she used a golden finger when performing in a musical, she was at ease, and the audience bought tickets, isn't it just to see a wonderful performance, and they definitely don't mind how this performance is produced. But if you want to get commendations and even awards because of the golden finger, Jenny really feels that she has broken through the bottom line. Of course, Broadway is not heaven, and behind the Tony Awards is also full of public relations, lobbying, and connections. curtain factor, but most of the actors are at least very hard working professionally, they may not get too much pay, they have been silent on Broadway for several years, more than ten years, and after continuous luck, they will have such a chance to be nominated, and this may be their only chance to win the award. In this kind of competition, you won the award with your empathy golden finger, are you embarrassed to see other people's lost expressions?

Of course, this is also because she used empathy gold fingers 80% of the time in the performance of "Chicago", she was not skilled enough in the early stage, and her mental state was too poor in the later stage, so she cheated directly. If it is the Oscars, Jenny's mentality will be different, the first is that the Oscars are more important, and the second is that she rarely directly empathizes with the camera when making movies, which is not suitable, and it is more likely to shoot with her own satisfactory performance mode after many rehearsals, and there are fewer cheating components.

So this Tony Award makes Marissa. Vennok, Jenny didn't feel sour, but was very pleased, "Hairspray" achieved excellent results in such a bleak market with its own strength, Marissa received unanimous praise from critics, and she deserved to win the award, although there were some remarks against her in the public relations process, but it had nothing to do with Marisa, and it can't be said that other people's articles are unreasonable. The Broadway awards must be based on encouraging the development of Broadway, there was no more suitable person before, she won the award, and now there is a more suitable person to Marissa to win, the Tony Award has been this game rule for fifty or sixty years, and she lost very willingly.

And so when she walked on the way to receive the award, she saw Marisa. When Vinnock had a lost expression on his face, Jenny was really not happy and happy, but ...... It can even be said that she is a little weak-hearted.

With the introduction in the background music, 'Jennifer. Jefferson's charisma, which overcame the difficulties caused by the harsh winter and the harsh economy, created a double miracle of box office and word-of-mouth in the most difficult year of Broadway, and her outstanding performance was impressive, winning the New York Drama Critics Association Award, the Outside Drama Critics Award......', and she walked onto the stage, and the audience spontaneously showed their support for her with cheers and applause - it was the first time that Jenny was very intuitive in front of an auditorium-level audience, and most importantly, she knew that there was nothing but the general audience sitting in the audience, there are many famous names in the musical and stage drama industry, and her award comes from their appreciation and support for her.

This support is not because of James's half-PR, nor because of her connections, or the usual tendencies of the Tony Awards, Jenny can hardly believe what she is thinking - these judges who will vote for her just like her performance, and this appreciation overrides the PR of the "Hairspray" crew, or the traditional cultural bias of Broadway, she is a vase of Hollywood's first-line productions, and she should be ignored and excluded everywhere on Broadway - but in the 700-person jury panel, there are still people who appreciate her Lockhee, Putting all these factors out of the equation, I voted for her.

The Tony Award is still the gimmick above the actual award, but when Jenny took it from Rob, she felt that the trophy was so heavy that she had mixed feelings, although on Broadway and Hollywood, it was very strange and even a little embarrassing to say this, but at this moment, she couldn't help but admit it...... She was really moved.

And with the emotion, of course, came a deeper sense of guilt: she could not say that she deserved the votes of the more than 350 judges (the lowest), who voted for her because of their professional qualities and artistic pursuits, but Jenny or Chen Zhen did not have a clear conscience in front of this integrity.

But this is not an occasion for mixed feelings, Jenny looked at the trophy in her hand, quickly collected her mood, and bent down slightly to approach the microphone.

"I ...... I really don't know what to say. She said sincerely, "As you should know from what I just asked, I didn't prepare a speech tonight. ”

Her witty remarks immediately provoked a burst of laughter, and someone in the audience shouted, "You're a star, Lokehee!" The audience loves you! ”

This is a line from the "Roxie" singing passage, and in the midst of laughter, Jenny raises the trophy, "Thank you!" I love the audience too - you love my love for you, don't you? ”

The audience erupted in a burst of loud laughter and a jagged 'yes'.

Jenny looked at the trophy, suddenly shrugged her shoulders, and made the same narcissistic expression as Lockey, and said with the same brutal expression as Lockey, "And I love your love for me, andwelooooveeachother." andthat-stony。 ”

The laughter in the audience never stopped, and now it was even stronger, and Jon in front of the TV was also laughing from ear to ear, "Jennifer is so funny!" she’ssocool！ ”

She was completely overwhelmed by Jenny's completely impromptu joke and her cool energy of not losing her cool even after winning a Tony Award.

Although this is a heavyweight award, there is also a limit to the time for awarding the awards, and after a few jokes, Jenny didn't say anything more, she raised a proper smile, "In addition to my audience and the honorable judges, I want to give special thanks to Rob next to me, it was you who gave me the opportunity to get on Broadway, my teacher Agatta, dear I saw you, give me a smile, okay?" ”

In the audience, Agatta, who was quickly found, smiled happily and gave a thumbs up to the stage to give encouragement, and Jenny also gave a thumbs up, "My theater manager, James, we can't have a miracle without your audacity, my colleagues, my co-actors, ......"

She quickly clicked a series of names before it was her turn, "My assistant Mary, my PR Judy, my agent Cesare, and most importantly, my former employer, Johnny, thank you for always giving me leave to audition, and my good friend Dave, thank you, it wouldn't be all without you!" ”

By the time the list of names was all called, her speech had already exceeded ten seconds, and the red light began to light on the sidelines, but Jenny still paused for a second.

She looked at the countless faces in the audience, browsing their postures almost blankly, feeling their patient waiting and kind support, imagining their affirmation and affection for her.

A thought suddenly came to her mind very clearly.

Whether they cross over or not, Chen Zhen and Jenny have always been doing what they should do and must do all their lives, and what they will do if they don't do it, how they can do it, has always been the driving force of her actions. She got married because it was advantageous to get married, divorced because divorce was beneficial, and she lost weight because she couldn't enter the career of a good filmmaker without losing weight, and she studied acting skills because she couldn't get ahead if she didn't act well, and she adjusted her mentality, because if she didn't adjust her mentality, she would get sick and be eliminated.

Now she finally has something she wants to do, and it's so literary that she is a little embarrassed to say it.

She wants to conquer them with her own strength, to win this honor with her own acting skills, and when she picks up the trophy again, Jenny wants to be proud of her achievements with a clear conscience. She wants to be worthy of the honor she gets, even if this sentence can only be said to herself, she wants to say it loudly, "For this role, I didn't rely on gold finger empathy, I didn't refer to other people's successful performances, even if I had public relations, I relied on my own speculation and hard work to get the judges' recognition of me." ”

The applause brought her back to reality, Jenny took one last look at the black head in the audience, took a deep breath, covered her chest and bowed to the audience, turned to hug Rob again, and walked off the stage with him with the trophy.

'Jennifer. Jefferson Takes Tony Award Crown, Another Miracle for Miracle Girls'

'Broadway critics are happy with this, Jennifer's acting skills are recognized'

'Tony Awards Shift Style, Surprising Results'

'Jennifer. The Jefferson Tony Award has a quick wit, although he won the award unexpectedly, but he showed humor and conquered the audience.

'Rob. Marshall: This girl (Jennifer. Jefferson) is very humble, but talented, and she will change the world'

'Jennifer's value has increased sharply after winning the award, and the sequel to 'Caribbean' has changed'

…… When the public was optimistic about "Hairspray", Jennifer suddenly came out halfway, seemingly uncontroversial, and seemed to have taken the Tony Award for Best Actress trophy unexpectedly, which also surprised many media, just less than a month before "The Oprah Show", this girl once again occupied the headlines of major media. In July and August of this year, Jennifer should be the most eye-catching new face, and the path she took also made it difficult for the media to find a suitable positioning, and even to say that it was difficult to get the right attitude towards Jennifer in the report.

Although as long as the strength is sufficient, the award is not impossible to publicize, but generally speaking, in the case of no deliberate leadership, public opinion is still relatively fair, such as in 1998, Gwyneth. Paltrow, the second generation of celebrities in the circle, won the Oscar with her unremarkable performance in "Shakespeare in Love", defeating Kate, whose acting skills are obviously far better than her. Blanchett and Meryl. Streep, the actress took it, but it was full of controversy, ridiculed by film critics and netizens, and her reputation was bad, coupled with her controversial private life, Gwyneth is definitely the most ridiculed popular actress after the rise of the Internet in recent years. This also makes her have an Oscar, but she has never opened up the situation in the field of commercial films.

And now, Jennifer. Jefferson won the Tony Award and a big-production actress in less than two years after her debut, to say that she has no background and promoter behind her, the media don't believe it, but if this Tony Award is hard to say from Marissa. Vinnock pulled out of his mouth, and the New York drama critics should not be so calm about the news, and even most of the columns expressed their satisfaction.

For authoritative journalists and film critics in Hollywood, the brief appearance of the movie version of "Chicago" and Elizabeth, who has no room for performance in "Pirates of the Caribbean 1", find it difficult for them to believe that Jennifer is a very talented talented young actress, and the film critics who have seen the "Chicago" musical before, because they are not involved in the field of musical theater criticism, and after all, the overall number is small, they may be sure that Jennifer's "Chicago" musical is indeed no worse than the movie. But there also doesn't seem to be a qualification to affirm Jennifer's film acting skills. So now a more embarrassing situation has formed, that is, the Tony Awards, which have always been relatively niche and cold, are the first to recognize Jennifer. Jefferson's status as an acting school, but many models of reporting here in Hollywood still treat her as a youth idol.

For youth idols and acting schools, there is still a difference in the treatment of the media, which is similar to Meryl. Streep would never have been ridiculed by newspapers and magazines, but Paris. Hilton and other reality TV stars are caricatured every day, although Hollywood is allaboutbusiness, but the future of the talented acting school is also praised and cared for, even if it consumes her popularity for paparazzi reporting, there will not be too much malice, and youth idols are different, as fast-moving consumer goods, the media wants to squeeze out the surplus value in a few years, and then contentedly let her gradually be forgotten as time passes, If this actor with insufficient strength actually won an award with his own relationship and public relations, then the possibility of the media launching a wild ridicule of her is not small, in Hollywood, no one can give a 'gag order', every reporter and editor enjoys freedom of comment, and newspapers and magazines will not suppress a report just for the sake of face.

"It would be nice if Jennifer went to act in a literary film at this time." Many media people unconsciously have this idea, "Let the market and awards test her acting skills, and her path in Hollywood can also show the embryonic shape, whether it is a commercial film vase that only pursues the box office, or the road of an ambitious powerful actor...... Even if it is not a literary film, she should quickly reveal her new film plan, so that her self-positioning will be more obvious. ”

While the media was having a headache to 'set the tone' for Jennifer, Jenny was also sad about her next film, in the executive suite of the Four Seasons Hotel in New York, she was wearing a mask while flipping back and forth through a stack of scripts pinned with paper clips, and from time to time she picked up another stack of scripts, found a specific paragraph, bit the highlighter pen cover, and drew fluorescent annotations on a paragraph.

"It would be nice if I had seen these two films before, at least I could simulate it and see if I fit this style." While chewing on the pen case, Jenny complained softly, "The simulation of the script is too poor. ”

Although at the moment of winning the award, Jenny had a very lofty dream on a whim, but she knew very well how many pounds and taels she was now. In a proletarian society, she is still in the initial stage of socialism, and it is almost okay to be self-absorbed for a while, and most of the time you still have to live pragmatically.

Of course, it's not a bad thing for people to have a little ideal, at least now she has more passion for her career, but it would be too hypocritical to really use a gold finger because of this ideal. Even in the ideal scene, Jenny's fantasy dialogue does not completely exclude the role of Goldfinger, but she doesn't need empathy to figure out the role, she still needs to use Goldfinger's time deceleration function and script rehearsal function. It's just that at this time period, the completion of the two scripts she got is not high, and they are not finalized, so in the performing arts space, she can only simulate some very vague human shapes to play, and the playback effect is naturally impossible to talk about, even if it is not of much use.

In this case, it can only be decided from the script and the two male leads, as well as the director's style. Jenny closed the two scripts, placed them in front of her, and added two more photos of the male lead, and she stared at Ben. Stiller and Adam. Sandler's two somewhat similar faces fell into deep thought.

Whether Ben or Adam, they are both honest and people-friendly movie stars, and they are both small-cost and high-return stars that film companies like, Ben has been focusing on Steller's characteristic comedy, and has made a lot of money with "Meet My Father-in-law" in recent years, and in a few years, there will be the ace series "Wonderful Night at the Museum", in the field of comedy, he is a big man who no one has been able to bypass since 2000. Although Adam is also a talent, he is better than his seniority, and if he wants to fight the box office, he can't fight for the box office in recent years, which is undeniable, and this project is indeed better.

But if that's all there is, Cesare won't give Jenny both scripts, "Meet Polly" and "50 First Loves" are more than that, the script of "50 First Loves" seems to move her more, she is still more optimistic about this script, tonight's meeting with Adam also made Jenny believe that Adam can handle this role well, and Adam and Benbi have a great advantage, that is, Adam has a small coffee position, he doesn't have too much right to modify the script, and he won't dictate the shooting, this play must be relatively average in terms of focus. And it's different, as a comedy star who can carry 100 million or 200 million box office, Ben has enough influence to put pressure on the filmmaker, giving priority to ensuring that he is brilliant in the movie, Jenny rewatched some of his films in the space, and also confirmed her vague impression: All the films that Ben participated in and produced, the scenes must be centered on him, you won't notice who the heroine is when you watch "Wonderful Night at the Museum", and a large part of the scenes that Jenny finds boring in "Tropical Thunder" are also revolving around him, the characters she finds interesting have little room to play.

Of course, maybe this is just her own opinion, but the phenomenon of this 'drama bully' is a bit serious. In terms of brilliance, it seems that she should choose "50 First Loves" again, but this has another problem, the script of "50 First Loves" is good, but no matter how you look at it, the heroine is a vase character, a person who loses his memory every day, from the beginning to the end of the film, the psychological state cannot change too much, Jenny estimates that she will just stay there beautifully most of the film, and then make some different reactions to Adam's pursuit, this character has no heart at all, of course, maybe she can deceive a bunch of tears and fans' She's so pretty,' but Josh is also beautiful in Pirates of the Caribbean 1, and look at how critics ignore him, Jenny doesn't want to be a vase for a romance movie that is unlikely to have a sequel.

From this point of view, Polly in "Meet Polly" has some advantages in this regard, Polly is a very funny girl, she is more capable of making good shows, and she also has some room to play.

If Ben and Adam had switched, Jenny might have taken "Meeting Polly", but these two actors' interest in the script is the only investment point for investors, in other words, the script and the actor are bound, and they can't change people to play them.

If the scoring system is adopted, the scores of the two scripts should be comparable, and even the difficulty of the competition should be similar - although Adam and Ben both invited Jenny to join, this is only a preliminary intention, a very simple reason, Jenny is now reading several scripts at the same time, and these scripts are impossible. Stay single-minded', it is likely that they are also waiting to be seen in the hands of some actresses, at this stage, everyone is many-to-many, Jenny will enter the audition library after she likes this script, she still needs to go through an audition to get this role, and the difference from before is probably that she will be arranged to audition alone, instead of getting together with actresses of equal status, waiting for the call like a newcomer.

According to Cesare's disclosure, "Meet Polly" and "50 First Loves" now invite several actresses from the top of the B-list and C-List to read the script, and another Jennifer - Jennifer. Aniston has a certain interest in "Meet Polly", and Drew . Barrymore likes "50 First Loves", but Drew is a shrewd female producer, and the additional conditions for her to join are to bring capital into the game, pay more dividends, and the salary is not low, so the filmmakers are still hesitant about this, Adam also revealed to her, "Columbia was ready to agree, but after the release of "Pirates of the Caribbean", the attitude has changed, they are very optimistic about you, and if the price is right, they will immediately give the crew the green light." ”

If the company gives the crew the green light, it may be possible to complete the construction and start filming within two to three weeks, which is just in time for Jenny's spare time this year, after all, she still has to go back to Broadway this winter to fulfill the contract.

After holding the picture of Adam and Ben in her hand and looking at it for a long time, Jenny still put the picture of Ben down. Ben was eating with her, his words and deeds were very bold, although he looked kind, but it could be seen that Ben was a confident person, of course, he also had this confidence, but Jenny doubted that he could play the role of the cautious insurance officer, if he acted in general and must be leading, even if this film does not lose money at the box office, the reputation of the film is not too good. Instead of this, let's try to see if we can negotiate changes to the script of "50 First Loves" to add some character depth to the heroine.

She picked up the phone, "Cesare, I'm still inclined to "50 First Loves", Ben still helped me refuse, yes, it's a pity that I can't shoot both, ......"

Both films are expected to be filmed this year, and Jenny's schedule only has one film left in the space, and she definitely can't take both.

After some more interviews in New York and attending Rob's celebratory party (no doubt Rob voted for her), Jenny didn't linger and went straight back to Los Angeles to start preparing for her first film audition as a popular star.

The author has something to say: Note:

1 Well, as much as I like Pepper, I really don't really like Gwyneth's Shadow of the Water, and her Best Actress is definitely one of the most controversial in recent years.

2 Green light is about the same as special events, in the case of ST13 that is being prepared now, because the box office performance of ST12 is not as good as Paramount expected, so although it has been preparing the crew, fixing members, and writing scripts, it has not started filming, this is because Paramount did not give the green light. After the green light was given, the most important thing was that the money and the procedures within the company were in place very quickly, so that the crew could be formed in a short period of time.

I had a friend comment in the comment that the hairspray rose too suddenly, and I didn't explain it in advance, I also think it's a little, so I'll go back and add a few words later, and it's this annoying thing to write now, and I'll try to write a little bit of saving......
