"Ah, we see James. Cameron and his wife, James! ”

"Hi Linda, it's nice to meet you, you look beautiful today."

"Oh, thank you so much, James, so-2.5 billion? huh？ Although I know many people have asked you this question, but, seriously, the day before the Oscars, the global box office of "Avatar" exceeded 2.5 billion, how do you feel about this? ”

"There's just one word – 'wow', and to be honest, I didn't expect the box office to really reach that number, so of course I'm very excited, yes."

"But you don't look very excited, do you? It feels like you're used to this feeling of working miracles—"

"Hahaha, huh?"

"It does seem like that, right—So, do you think Avatar will win the best movie tonight?"

"I believe that good films have a chance, and the judges will make their choices, all we have to do is cross our fingers and wait for the results."

"And will there be a rivalry between you and Catherine because of the Oscars?"

"In fact, we've been wishing each other well all season, and it's the same now, Catherine made a really good film, and I think if she wins, it's going to be very good."

"Oh, so for "Millionaire" -- hehe, just a joke, I'm rooting for "Avatar" to win the award, this movie is really good - but, I don't know if you realize, if "Avatar" wins, it also means Jennifer. Jefferson will be on the Oscar podium for the third year in a row, and for the third time in a row, the best film in '08. Clayton", "A Week with Monroe" in '09, if she can still go on stage this year, it will really be a triple. ”

"Wow, really, there didn't seem to be any media talking about this before this -- it's weird, this is a flashpoint, isn't there any media talking about this? If "Avatar" is won this year, she will really be a triple--wouldn't that be a bit too exaggerated? ”

"It's because this is not good for the Oscars of "Avatar" that it is not promoted, but Fox will report her to the list of producers, which is really surprising - as for the media, of course the media under News Corp will not report this, and they are not without scoops. Jefferson's PR team is so strong, it should have been all done. ”

"Yes, Jennifer and I both realized that, and we joked with each other – if she was on the podium this year, it would be the third time in a row, and that's what made me really want to win the award, because I thought it would be a cool miracle: three films in three years, all in different genres, and they all won awards, and what young people in this age can do sometimes really scare me as an old man."

"Was Cameron angry just now? Didn't I say that just now, when the host just said "Millionaire", he was unhappy, right? ”

"She should have seen that she's been courting her, oh - she's a little afraid to ask! Haha, it's fun! ”

"yes, it would be really cool if it all happened, right? This makes us look forward to tonight's big prize even more. ”

"Yes, thank you, Linda, see you soon."

"I'll see you later, James. Ah, now, Christopher, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for "Inglourious Basterds". Waltz is coming towards us, hello, Chris-"

"I heard that Brad. Pitt isn't here tonight - "Inglourious Basterds" was nominated for Best Picture, did he refuse to attend because he didn't get the actor nomination? ”

"Anyway, Anthony. Ryan came, and he didn't get any nominations. ”

"The real-time viewership is already 30 million, which is higher than last year...... It seems that "Avatar" has really brought a lot of audiences this year - guess what, will the Oscars give it the award? ”

"Keep an eye on your ratings, it's not your job to worry about awards - just give it because of this? It's impossible, and I'll continue to play if I don't give sci-fi anyway, right? If I were the chairman, I wouldn't give it? ”

"Ah, another Chris-Christopher. Hanks Chris, so you're here for Best Actor tonight, aren't you? ”

"Now that I've been nominated, I'm like, yes, yes, I'm here for Best Actor, and I'm not going to go home if I don't get it - haha, just kidding, it doesn't matter if you win or not, it's an honor to be nominated, and Jeff and I said the same thing, if he wins, I can forgive him with just a big meal."

"Chris is really funny - I think he's really getting handsome!"

"I think Cesare is more handsome—hey! Don't look at me like that, I'll admit Chris isn't bad either - well, well, Cesare isn't any better, just not much worse than him, okay? Oh, oh, listen, listen to the screams in the background - I guess J.J. has arrived! ”

Oscar nominee for Best Picture, actress and Oscar-winning actress Jennifer . Jefferson just entered the venue, oh, and they're getting off, Slumdog Millionaire director Danny Brown. Boyle stepped forward and hugged her—"

“j.j！”

"Hi Linda."

"Wow, you're so beautiful tonight, this dress is so flowing, it sets off your figure so much......"

"That's not what we're going to hear, Linda! Why didn't you ask about Sanlianzhuang just now? You should ask J.J. what he thinks about this! ”

"Oh, it's boring! Who wants to hear you say about her dress? Dresses are covered on every website, but this is a question that only you can ask! ”

"Ask her when she plans to have a baby?!"

"It's a shame why didn't her husband come on stage, Cesare was so low-key - he should have come over for an interview."

"Ask her what she thinks of Christopher's Best Actor nomination!"

"I should ask her about Danny - man, didn't you see the report? Danny is said to be very upset with her, feeling that "Millionaire" has been treated unfairly in the publicity for awards season-"

"Did you notice, this year's question is particularly simple."

Jeanne said that she and Cesare walked into the room together and walked to the seats with the name tag on it: the "Avatar" crew was given a large spot in the area near the front of the stage - which was probably included in the 2.5 billion package. "They seemed to be very afraid that we were going to stir up the topic again - it felt like Linda couldn't wait to send me away, and she didn't even dare to ask a question outside of fashion."

"I wouldn't be surprised if they were worried." Cesare said that he lowered his hand and let Jeanne's arm loosen itself from the crook of his arm, but the two remained fairly close to each other - this was the scene where the cameras were everywhere, "and of course, their worries were unwarranted, and there was a suspicion of self-awareness." ”

"I don't blame them," Jenny quickened her pace and walked to her seat, pausing only a few times as necessary to exchange pleasantries with her friends. "I think they've had enough of Avatar PR over the past few months – have you heard? The judges' question has even raised concerns in the President's Cabinet, and it is said that there are already requests for a list of members and resumes from the Academy. ”

"You listened to Chris, right?" Cesare also kept waving and smiling into the distance, and they sat down in their place, and Jenny moved to the right, noticing that Cesare was also leaning to the left, creating a wide gap between them.

She unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, "What, is this news unreliable?" ”

"Not so reliable, at least the President's Cabinet is probably not in the mood to meddle with this matter right now—and certainly they are not qualified to do so," Cesare said absent-mindedly, "You just met Danny - how likely do you think he would be to take the initiative to let the tabloids go?" ”

"You mean the news?" Jenny shook her head, "It shouldn't be him, this news doesn't please the judges, and if it's Danny, the publication should be of a higher level...... But Danny was upset, that's for sure, you know, he's always felt that the company was spending a little too little money on Millionaire, and ......"

Cesare let out a low 'um', "And you spoke up for Avatar, but didn't say anything for Millionaire." ”

At this point, Jenny actually doesn't mind Danny's temper very much, everyone's position is different, and what they see is different, for Danny, he can't get too many dividends at the box office of "Millionaire", and almost all the money is earned by Big Dream, and it is normal for Big Dream to fight for his honor, as for whether Jenny spends Fox's money to fight for honor for herself, and whether there are other reasons not to speak out for "Millionaire", he has no need to understand. What Danny saw was that "Millionaire" was in full swing in the first half of 09, as if it had booked an Oscar for 10 years, and after the expectations were getting higher and higher, from the second half of the year, "Bomb Disposal Unit" and "Avatar" came out one after another, and "Millionaire" became the leader who was overtaken due to premature exposure and poor publicity of Big Dreams. With a director's desire for an Oscar, it's normal for Danny to have an opinion about them.

"It's nothing." "Anyway, it's all in the past, and we don't care about what Danny does—his style is different from Big Dream, and there are very few opportunities to work together in the future." ”

Cesare nodded, and said nothing more on the matter, and the two fell into a brief, almost terrible silence, and the awkward atmosphere inevitably descended again, weighing heavily on their shoulders.

Jeanne could probably feel that Cesare wasn't looking at her, but she didn't know where he was looking, and she herself was staring at the back of the chair in front of her, trying to burn two holes in her head with her eyes—an unnecessary embarrassment that made her uncomfortable and nervous, and proved that the avoidance tactics they had adopted over the past month had not been so effective: yes, it was the first time they had seen each other since that heart-to-heart conversation, and before that, Cesare and she had barely been back to Los Angeles, She (somewhat unnecessarily) has been living in New Zealand under the pretext of "Codename Shero", while Cesare travels around the world, and of course often goes to New York, and the jet lag makes them communicate by email most of the time, avoiding the possibility of phone calls, until tonight's Oscars, the two sides are unavoidable and reunited.

It's not a child anymore, a casual intimate contact - not even how intimate, as for that serious? If it were a different person, Jenny would have laughed it off - she and Josh had been intimate many times during their fake relationship, and that didn't stop them from maintaining a good friendship. So she tended to blame Cesare for the whole awkwardness, and if he hadn't overreacted, she wouldn't have followed the embarrassment, and then let the relationship between the two go out of control towards alienation and avoidance......

Glancing at Cesare to find him calmly looking down on his phone, Jenny coughed and tried to break the deadlock, "So, who do you think will be the winner tonight?" ”

"Everything that needs to be done has been done," Cesare shook his head, "but there are three strong films this year, and we're talking about the best films that are the most difficult to manipulate the results, so ...... All I can say is that within two hours, we will know the results. ”

The Oscars usually last more than three hours, and Jenny said, "You mean the best edit?" Or the best photography? ”

"All three films have won seven of the most important nominations this year, so there's no difference between the good and the bad," Cesare finally put down his phone and turned to look at Jenny, they looked at each other for a while, Jenny coughed again, she turned her head first, and Cesare continued, "If any film can win these two awards first, it should be able to explain the attitude of a large part of the judges - at least the cinematographers and editors are also the main departments of the academy." ”

"Well," said Jeanne, staring at the back of her chair, wondering if she should take out her phone too, but her public figure was a little heavier than Cesare's—"Ah, James! Here, here! ”

Standing up enthusiastically and waving to the Cameron family, Jenny had never been so happy to see an old friend as she was today, "Your seat is next to me......"

"How's it going, is the editing of Codename SHERO all finished?" After the box office exceeded 2.5 billion, Cameron was already detached from the awards, and did not even mention the ongoing awards ceremony from beginning to end, "When can I see the full version?" ”

"Anytime, anywhere—"

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, along with a flurry of lively opening music, host Steve Brown. Martin walked out of the background briskly, and under the witness of 55 million viewers, the 82nd Oscars began - compared with the two producers who have been talking about "Avatar 2" and "Codename Shero", these 55 million enthusiastic viewers are more concerned about the fate of "Avatar" than they are, and the month-long bombardment of public opinion has given them a detailed idea of this year's three-man competition, and considering the North American box office of "Millionaire" and "Bomb Disposal Unit", it is conceivable that among the 55 million viewers, At least 50 million should wholeheartedly support "Avatar", the only movie they have ever seen, for these outsiders who don't care so much about the film industry. For the audience, they don't understand the conventions of the Oscars, nor the inherent advantages of art films, and of course they don't understand the natural bottom position of "Avatar" in the biological chain of awards, all they know is almost all that is the miracle of the 2.5 billion box office, and this 2.5 billion box office is all their credentials - what they are looking forward to is the same one-sided slaughter as "Avatar" on the box office list. What they want to witness is that after the miracle of 2.5 billion box office, Cameron won the grand prize - or even another miracle of fame and fortune after winning all nine nominations.

Of course, everyone knows that the best drama is always in the end, but the seven nominations for these three films are also a big attraction - I don't know if it is because of the audience's eagerness to have a snack and enjoy themselves, after the management first awarded the best actor and introduced the first best film nominee, Zach . Efron and Anna. Kendrick, the two rookies, walked up to the stage and introduced the awards they were going to give: Best Sound and Sound Editing.

- "Millionaire", "Bomb Disposal Unit" and "Avatar" all have their first coincident nominations!

The author has something to say: Note: The nine nominations here are consistent with reality.

Originally, Oscar would have been written in one day, but I didn't sleep well last night, and today is so uncomfortable that my ears keep rumbling like water......

I'll finish it tomorrow, mua!
