Chapter 155: After the Golden Ball is Sealed
"Andthegoldenglobegoesto—" Harrison said aloud with a happy face, "ReeseWitherspoon!" ”
In the courtesy applause and the buzzing discussion in the audience, Reese's picture expanded, and the rest of the candidates did not disappear from the big screen, after all, the performance of the loser is also a side that everyone cares about, whether it is SoreLoser or not, it depends on the performance of that moment, after all, this is also the Golden Globe Awards, although the gold content is not as good as the Oscars, but it is also a very important award, and it doesn't matter if most actors can't do it.
Some actors who are simply here to brush up on nominations, such as Kayla. Knightley and Judy. Dench, all of whom had expected a sincere smile, Sarah. Jessica. Parker was a little disappointed, but quickly adjusted. And Jennifer, who has always attracted the most attention, and her camera is also intentionally or unintentionally closer than others. Jefferson, on the other hand, was expressionless, smiling politely and clapping softly. Hanks turned around and said something to her, and Jennifer listened and naturally put her hand down.
"It's so exciting." In front of gossip websites and TV sets, the showdown between the two actresses has already excited everyone - it's like seeing office politics being put on stage, although it's fair to say that neither Jennifer nor Reese has any inappropriate performance, this kind of drama is much milder than TV series, but because of its authenticity, it is more engaging. I don't know how many young girls are talking on the phone in front of the TV, "Oh, look at J.J.'s smile, she must be angry, and Reese is so proud!" She's so cunning! ”
In fact, she is a little extreme, because the smile on Reese's face is not a smug smile in any way, on the contrary, she should be very happy, but now she is just maintaining a polite smile, and the award speech is also quite low-key and fast, "Thank you to the director, thank you to the producer...... Thank you to my husband and children, my family ......"
Playing the family card and low-key acceptance speeches are all good ways to dilute the focus at this kind of hot moment, awaken people's good feelings and sympathy for her, and let the situation not further expand. Reese's speech is only 30 seconds, almost not like a speech to receive an important award - emotionally restrained, not like winning the award, but like admitting his mistake on stage, this kind of pitiful low-key also arouses some sympathy from the audience, "Well, to be fair, Reese is also fair to take this award, although Jenny's performance in "The Devil Wears Prada" is also very good......
For most audiences, although Andy in "The Devil Wears Prada" is impressive, it was almost a year ago, and it can't compare to "Unstoppable", which has just been released for a long time, so most people think that the result of Reese's award is actually fair. As for poor J.J., isn't her main battlefield still to come?
"Can J.J. win Best Actress in a Drama?" Jon was already discussing it with her friends in the Skype group, and her sense of urgency was growing: there was one less chance to win, and if "The Fifth Sally" didn't win, then J.J. would really lose to Reese this time! Although she didn't hate Reese to the point of personal attacks, she treated Reese as a villain after all, and didn't want her to be proud.
"I hope Jennifer doesn't miss out on the next award," even Daddy Jon, who had been silent, paused from the newspaper and added, "After all, she did a great job in 'The Fifth Sally.'" ”
"Really?" Jon was a little surprised, "But you don't think highly of Sally the Fifth, Dad." ”
"That movie is too dark for you." Instead of watching the premiere with his daughter, Jon's dad found a Sunday, a weekend to watch with his wife—and now Jon's family has gotten into the habit of supporting J.J. movies, and whenever her new film comes out, Jon's parents will have an extra show on the weekend. "But Jennifer's performance was really good...... At least much better than Reese. ”
"yes." Unconsciously, Jon also firmly believed that 'if J.J doesn't win the award, there must be a shady scene', she first nodded eagerly, and then a little worried, "I hope J.J can win the Golden Globe, and of course, the Oscar......"
Although Reese and Jennifer's main heroine is not an award, her image is very bad, and she has no credibility in Jon's heart, "Maybe in order to reduce J.J's momentum, Reese will try to suppress her and prevent her from winning the Golden Globe Award......"
She is not the only one with some conspiracy theories, and now netizens are also questioning the Golden Globe Awards, although they may not be Jennifer's fans, but adhering to the mentality that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, they are also worried about Jennifer: Jennifer's performance is so good, she deserves to win the award, but can she win the award in the end?
"Congratulations, you've locked in another Best Actress in advance."
At this moment, Jenny herself has no trace of apprehension - just like Christopher, who turned around and congratulated her just now, she also decided that the heroine of the plot that has not yet been awarded should be her.
-- It's not because she and Christopher can predict or get any □□ news in advance, but they understand that the Golden Globe Awards is actually an entertainment show, and the annual broadcast fee depends on the advertising fee to determine the price, and the advertising fee is determined by the ratings, so like all entertainment programs, the organizers need to take the ratings into account - to capture the audience's attention.
Considering that the Golden Globe Awards have always had a PR shadow, the fairness has been criticized, and among the contenders for the heroine of the plot, the PR budget of the rest of the people is not as strong as Jenny's, and their performance in the awards month is not as good as Jenny's, so Jenny's two nominations will definitely be one of them, and it should be the most likely to be the heroine of the plot. Then the remaining variable is nothing more than whether the Golden Globe Awards will choose to fly away from Reese in order to avoid suspicion, give her the comedy, and the plot to others (or more beautifully, give it to her too).
And after seeing the award arrangement, Jenny basically denied this speculation, if she won the comedy, then the biggest suspense - Reese and her who wins and who loses - will be invalidated in advance, only let her lose at the beginning, so that the audience has the motivation to survive the awards clip in the middle, and wait for the heroine of the plot after that, to see if she can win back a city, which can maximize the retention of the audience, rush out of a good-looking ratings number, maintain and enhance the influence of the Golden Globe Awards and the broadcast contract for the coming year.
Of course, this is also because "Unstoppable" did throw a lot of public relations money on Reese, to be honest, without the support of Fox, Jenny may still be able to give Andy some nominations and awards in December award month, but at the Golden Globe Awards, it really can't compete with Reese's publicity offensive. Reese deserves the award, and when it comes to the total score of acting plus public relations expenses, she can indeed rank first.
"Do you think you can win Best Actor?" Instead of denying Christopher's prophecy, she jokingly asked, "Do you think your PR power can PK off Capote?" ”
"I don't know." Christopher honestly said, "If you spend all your budget on this, you should be able to get it." ”
But he smiled a little disdainfully and whispered, "But the Golden Globes aren't worth so much money." ”
Yes, Jenny also smiled: The Golden Globe Awards are indeed not that valuable, and there are not many real masters in the industry who take it seriously, after all, the number of judges is too small, and there have been public relations scandals, and the meaning of sharing pork is very heavy, but Chris's words are also a little sour, if he didn't win the best actor, in fact, it may not be because the public relations are not in place, it is likely that Jenny has locked the heroine of the plot in advance, so she is not willing to invest too much public relations money: when the performance evaluation is not overwhelming, and the competitors are also very strong, In order to ensure the relative fairness of the awards, and in order to make the pork look better, the judges will indeed make such a trade-off, and the decision after this trade-off cannot be changed by public relations expenses, so it is better to save some money to win the Oscars.
This was not the place to discuss such a thing, and to be honest, she didn't want to talk to Christopher about it, but Josh pushed Jenny on the arm, "What do you say?" ”
Jenny looked at Josh on the left and Chris on the right, and jokingly said, "I'm saying I'm so happy, I have two of the brightest men in the room tonight." ”
Both Josh and Chris both knew she was joking and laughed at it, and the two exchanged a friendly smile and bumped fists very Buddy, but it was David who was sitting across the round table. Finch heard Jenny's words, and smiled at her with some surprise, amusement, and appreciation, which made Jenny cry and laugh for a moment—she guessed that David might have misunderstood, but it was inconvenient to explain, so she had to absurdly let him 'misunderstand and appreciate': perhaps this was more or less a compliment, and it might still be a sign of great ability to open Chris and Josh's harem......
Under the threat of cameras roaming the crowd at all times, Jenny only showed a proper expression intently most of the time, forcing herself to smile at the jokes of the award presenters, applauding the strangers she had only met a few times, although the table was full of snacks and there was good wine in front of her, but in order not to spoil the makeup, both things were insulated from her. All night long, she was looking at her phone with her desire. Hope to fight, finally, when the awards ceremony was coming to an end, and only the best film, best director and other big axis awards were not awarded, the organizers of the Golden Globe Awards decided to reveal the last suspense, the handsome Leonardo. DiCaprio walked onto the podium.
"When I was invited to present this award, I said to myself, Leo, your luck has come, there are five very attractive ladies at the moment, and whoever you present this award to, tomorrow you will see the affair with her in the newspapers - and it will be your honor!"
-- Most of the celebrity guests present knew that at all the award ceremonies, the strings of the award presenters were written by a special person, discussed and rehearsed in advance, but even so, when Leonardo humorously joked about his physique of being chased by the media to report scandals, everyone still chuckled at the venue, and there was not much to make a scene. After all, humor is humor, and Americans love people who have the courage to laugh at themselves.
To everyone's laughter, Leonardo gave a brief introduction to the five candidates: Maria. Berrow (A History of Violence), Vivien. Chapter ("Memoirs of a Geisha"), Felisciti. Hoffman ("Crossing America"), Jennifer. Jefferson ("The Fifth Sally"), Charlize. Theron ("Northern Country"), and then, looking at the five people on the big screen with the audience, made a judgmental appearance, as if it was difficult to decide who would spread the scandal with him, and finally said with a painful decision, "Let the Foreign Press Club decide for me." ”
As he spoke, he tore open the envelope and muttered, "And the Golden Globe will go to—"
Glancing at the envelope, Leonardo suddenly showed a bright and sincere smile, he happily raised his hands and shouted in celebration, "Jennifer. Jefferson - "The Fifth Sally"! ”
The author has something to say: Note: 1 Xiao Li's award was made up by me. The other candidates are true.
2 About the Sony hacking incident, it is roughly that Sony's work email was hacked, stolen and announced, everyone can search for it, and the batch announced yesterday was not the day before yesterday is simply full of ridicule, and the highlights are: 1 Big Bull Producer Crazy Diss Angelina Jolie, mocking her for not knowing anything, and robbing David Fincher to shoot "Cleopatra" 2 David. Finch pretended to be stupid 3 as above, the big bull producer scolded the vice president of Sony Entertainment Division, scolded the poem 4 The producer coaxed Xiao Li to shoot Jobs, promising three points, A We don't need you to lose weight, Mo Mo Da B We are filming in a big city, don't suffer Mo Da C We will definitely be able to get you a little golden man that you should have gotten a long time ago......
It's almost laughing crazy, but in the end, Xiao Li Shi refused (it is also possible that he was mad and refused), David did not direct, changed the director and starring, and Sony finally sold "Jobs" to Universal ......-
Updated, long waited!
I don't know why I suddenly like Xiao Li very much, and pull him to make soy sauce!
