It was quite hard to accompany the second daughter to watch "Dance Out of My Life 2" and get out of the theater, because the time was not early, plus a movie, the two daughters looked very tired, Lin Yuquan did not choose to continue shopping, and then drove back to the villa in Beverly Hills.

The tired second daughter obviously didn't have the strength to compete, and after washing, the two only chatted with him for a short time, and then yawned and returned to their room to sleep.

Afterwards, Lin Yuquan himself also returned to the room to work on his "Wild Tales 2: The Battle of the Hundred Clans", although he worked very hard in the process of watching the movie, but he did not feel tired, this kind of hard work is more because of the kind of psychological hardship he is sandwiched between the two daughters, rather than physically, for him who has strong qi and blood after cultivation, unless it is the emotional torment some time ago, under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to make him feel tired.

In Lin Yuquan's conception, the first part of "Wild Wilderness: The Rise of the Apes" tells the story of the subordinate race of the Giants, the apes, who are unwilling to be enslaved and serve as cannon fodder in the war between the Giants and the Golden Lion, so under the leadership of the rebellious young ape Caesar, they overthrew the rule of the Giants and won the freedom of the race.

In the second "Wild Tale 2: Hundred Races for Hegemony", it tells the story of the ape race that has gained freedom and independence is forced to be involved in the war for hegemony in the wild continent, in order to no longer become a subordinate race in the past, they can only choose the road of blood and fire, which will be a magnificent journey, showing the ape race to the strong race, and Caesar to the great emperor.

Take advantage of the time around the Chinese New Year. In and Wendelin. Fan. De La Anan's cooperation. Now Lin Yuquan has basically completed the script of "Heartbeat". Considering the need and Stephanie at that time. Mel's "Twilight" series, the fourth installment of "Breaking Dawn", was released together, and he immediately had to devote himself to the filming of "Heartbeat", so he naturally had no time to spare, so he could only start writing the novel immediately.

Lin Yuquan has always been very fond of creating, and whenever he creates, he will enter a state where his mind is empty, as if time has stood still, in such a state. His whole person was engrossed in the creation of the novel, and before he knew it, more than two hours had passed.

Stretching his waist, Lin Yuquan showed a smile on his face, the author is like this, as long as he is satisfied with what he wrote, he will be in a particularly happy mood.

Raising his hand, looking down, and looking at the time of the watch, Lin Yuquan then took the watch off. Place it on your desk and turn off your computer. Sleep in the satisfaction of the beauty of the United States.

On February 24, the day of the 80th Academy Awards, it seemed that the eyes of the whole world were on Los Angeles and the Kodak Theater.

Although the awards ceremony was held in the evening, the people involved in this year's Oscars began to get busy early in the morning.

"Rain Spring, morning!" Liu Yifei smiled sweetly at Lin Yuquan.

"Is it early? It was early in the morning. Liu Shishi's clear voice sounded.

"Hmph." Liu Yifei puffed up her bun face unhappily.

Lin Yuquan shook his head slightly, with a smile in his eyes, although most of the time, he felt that the two girls were fighting each other with a headache, but occasionally, it was quite interesting to witness such a confrontation.

"Morning, Yifei! Now that you're up, I'll start making breakfast too. ”

"Okay, Brother Yuquan." Hearing Lin Yuquan's words, Liu Yifei's unhappiness dissipated without a trace in a blink of an eye.

Breakfast was eggs, bread and milk, bread and milk were ready-made, just frying an egg naturally didn't take long.

"Brother Yuquan, will you go to styling and change dresses in a while?" Liu Yifei asked while eating breakfast.

"Didn't Yuquan say it last night? Why ask. Lin Yuquan didn't answer, and Liu Shishi said without raising his head.

Seeing Yifei's sulking behavior after being angry again, Lin Yuquan hurriedly said: "Well, actually, I didn't tell you last night, you need to go with me later." ”

"What are we going to do? Do you do the styling? Well, it's not bad, it's better than being bored at home, okay! Liu Shishi said to himself.

"Okay, Brother Yuquan." Liu Yifei said simply.

Lin Yuquan smiled and didn't say anything.

After breakfast, the trio quickly packed up and drove out of the villa with a white Porsche Cayenne, and shortly after, on Rodeo Drive.

Rodeo Avenue is the main place in Beverly Hills, which contains almost all the most expensive stores in Southern California, where all the designer jewelry and apparel can be found in the most gorgeous showroom, and every famous store here is decorated with gold and unique architectural style, and there is a famous saying here, "Don't ask the price when you buy something, if you ask, you can't afford it." ”

"Yuquan, are you taking your dress here?" Liu Shishi asked in surprise, she had been accompanied by Lin Yuquan before, visiting Beverly Hills, and naturally knew the situation of Rodeo Avenue, which is the most upscale and exquisite clothing commercial street in Beverly Hills, gathering many world-famous and popular design works of top international masters.

"Hmm." Lin Yuquan nodded, with a particularly bright smile on his face: "But before I take the dress, you two have to pick out the clothes first." ”

"Pick clothes, why do we pick clothes?" Liu Shishi asked suspiciously.

"Yes, Brother Yuquan, we don't need to buy clothes now, you take the dress first and do the styling! The evening awards ceremony is important, to buy clothes, you can come for two days. Liu Yifei rarely did not refute Liu Shishi's words.

Lin Yuquan's smile became brighter and brighter, and he smiled in the puzzled gaze of the second daughter: "I didn't tell you two days ago, in fact, I have already got two tickets, and you can go to the award ceremony with me in the evening." ”

"Oh." The two daughters covered their mouths with their hands and looked at Lin Yuquan in disbelief.

"Really? Brother Rain Spring. Liu Yifei asked uncertainly.

"Of course it's true, I don't have to lie to you." Lin Yuquan smiled contentedly.

Purpose-built for the Oscars, the Kodak Theatre has a total capacity of more than 3,400 spectators, unlike concerts and other occasions. Tickets for the Oscars are never on sale. All tickets are free tickets issued by the organizer. It is non-transferable, and the name on the ticket must match your identity before you can enter.

Generally speaking, the seats of the awards ceremony are divided into three, six, nine and so on, among which the first few rows facing the stage are the nominees and heavyweight award presenters, in addition to the front row seats, the general celebrity guests will be arranged in the back row of seats in the main hall of the theater, and if they are non-entertainment celebrities, they will be arranged on the second floor.

Nevertheless. But in fact, no matter where you sit in the theater, being able to enter the live ceremony is almost a status symbol in itself. The reason why I say almost, is because the Oscars will reserve about 150 seats in the front row for the awards ceremony every year, and this part of the seats must be applied for on the Oscars' official website several months in advance. Generally speaking, these seats will be next to the stars, so that when the nominees and presenters are absent or go on stage to present or receive the awards, the live camera will sweep over and not appear too empty in the theater.

Except for this part of the fill in the ballot. Those who can enter the scene are either the nominators or award guests, or the nominating filmmakers and the senior management of the relevant film companies and their families. Either some of the Oscar judges and celebrities, it can be said that none of them are ordinary people.

Of course, even with such a tight ticket, with Lin Yuquan's influence in Hollywood today, as long as he wants, it will not be difficult to get two tickets on the second floor of the theater.

But at first, because he didn't think that he would bring his second daughter to Los Angeles this time, he didn't think about getting tickets, and when the second daughter had the idea to accompany him to Los Angeles to attend the Oscars, he simply surprised his second daughter. After Gannis got the tickets, he didn't choose to sue the second daughter right away.

"Oh, that's great, thank you, Brother Yuquan." Liu Yifei, who was sitting in the passenger seat, happily kissed Lin Yuquan on the face.

"Hmph." Liu Shishi, who was sitting in the back row, snorted dissatisfiedly, and then said with a smile: "Thank you, Yuquan." ”

It's not easy, Lin Yuquan touched the cheek that was kissed by Yifei, and said with a smile: "Okay, girls, let's pick out clothes, although you won't walk the red carpet, and you basically won't show your face on TV, but to attend such an occasion, a beautiful dress is a must." ”

As early as the first two days of rehearsals, the star guest ranking cards in the audience in the Kodak Theater have been placed, and the stage lighting, sound and corresponding arrangements are basically in place.

Since this morning, everyone in the production team has been busy, laying out the red carpet, placing the giant statuette, and tirelessly checking the decorations inside and outside the theater, so as to ensure that the award ceremony is not on the spot.

At the same time, around such a grand party, in the early morning of February 24, there were many, many busy people.

In fact, a month before the ceremony, when the Oscar nominees were announced, agencies, hairstylists and jewelers from some of the world's top fashion brands had already gathered in Hollywood to sponsor their products for the nominees or expected attendees.

Generally speaking, in order to participate in such a world-renowned Oscars, the packaging costs of stars are at least hundreds of thousands of dollars, and at that time, the stars will not only be glamorous themselves, but also become the best advertising models for businesses to show their products to a global audience.

It's impossible for journalists to sit idle, especially with the American Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), which has been the buyout of television rights to the Oscars for many years.

According to statistics, although the global economy has not been good recently, the advertising time during this year's Oscars Gala is still in short supply as in previous years, and it has been divided up by a number of businesses early. The average ad inserted in the Oscars was sold for $1.65 million, and each ad ran for 30 seconds, with an average ad cost of $55,000 per second.

At this year's Oscars, a total of 49 such commercials were broadcast, which means that in just a few hours of televised broadcasts, ABC was able to earn $80.85 million in TV commercials alone.

In addition, in addition to its own live broadcast in North America, ABC TV also distributes the TV rights of the awards ceremony to other television stations in the United States and hundreds of countries and regions overseas. At that time. More than 100 countries and regions around the world will broadcast the grand occasion of this year's Oscars. And through guò such a broadcast. ABC TV will be able to earn at least $40 million.

A live broadcast involving hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, even ABC, one of the largest broadcasters in the United States, cannot slack off.

In addition to the 150 audience members who have the opportunity to enter the theater with a guò fill in the ticket, the Oscars will also set up an audience seat next to the red carpet for each award ceremony, which can accommodate 700 people.

Thanks to the presence of Lin Yuquan, the world's most influential Chinese director, there were some Chinese viewers who won tickets through the guò lottery early in the morning. Regardless of the distance of thousands of miles, I came to the red carpet early to get a glimpse of my idol.

Chen Lin, a Chinese-American college student who lives in Chicago and is currently enrolled at New York University, arrived at the Kodak Theater at nine o'clock in the morning, she is a die-hard fan of Lin Yuquan, since Lin Yuquan was born in North America, she is like countless Chinese Americans in the United States, she regards the young, handsome and talented man as an idol in her heart, this time she was fortunate to win a ticket to the red carpet through the guò lottery, in order to be able to contact Lin Yuquan from a distance. She flew to Los Angeles on the 22nd, waiting for the Oscars. Fly back tomorrow.

Su Rui, a young Chinese man living in Toronto, is in a similar situation with Chen Lin, he is also a fan of Lin Yuquan, since watching Lin Yuquan's self-directed and self-written "Huo Yuanjia", he was completely fascinated by Lin Yuquan's cool and magical kung fu shown in it, and then regarded Lin Yuquan as his biggest idol. He has long wanted to witness his idol live, and after being extremely lucky enough to win the ticket, where will he hesitate, even if it costs thousands of yuan for air tickets and accommodation, it is worth it.

As the minutes ticked by, everyone was waiting for that exciting moment to come

"Oh, I don't know when I'll be able to step on the red carpet at the Oscars." As he approached the Kodak Theater, Liu Yifei, who was looking out of the car window, said faintly.

Hearing Liu Yifei's words, Liu Shishi pursed her lips, Liu Yifei is still like this, she is even farther away from the Oscar.

"Rest assured, that day will come soon, I promise." Lin Yuquan smiled.

After parking the car, Lin Yuquan immediately separated from his second daughter, and then walked towards the red carpet at the entrance of the Kodak Theater.

The red carpet of the Oscars has always been a particularly favorite part of the audience, although the number of viewers is not as good as the awards ceremony afterward, but the absolute number of favorite viewers is huge, and unlike the awards ceremony, what to watch on the red carpet, do not look at the stars to see the dress, do not look at the male star, look at the female star, one by one actresses wearing various dresses have walked on the red carpet one after another, each showing their own wonderful, Cameron. Diaz's white low-cut floor-length skirt swaying gracefully as she walked. Mirren's burgundy dress is full of noble elegance, Samantha. Harris's black dress is shiny and charming, and the German supermodel Heidi Klum has a red high-necked dress with a graceful figure. Robinson is like a fairy in the green forest

Even so, when Lin Yuquan, who was wearing a black dress, stepped into the red carpet area, he immediately set off the biggest climax since the red carpet show, even though there was no shortage of stars on the red carpet of the Oscars, but the moment he appeared, he became the most brilliant one.

"Kung Fu Lin, look this way, can you smile? Good. "Kung Fu Lin, look this way." A reporter on the sidelines of the red carpet excitedly raised the camera in his hand to take a wild shot.

And the 700-seat red carpet audience was even more deafening screams and cheers. "Kung Fu Lin" "Kung Fu Lin, I love you." "Lin Yuquan, I love you, you are the pride of all our Chinese."

Lin Yuquan, who was cramped on the red carpet at the beginning, has become extremely calm and skillful after a few years, sometimes walking, sometimes smiling and waving, and sometimes stopping natural posing.

Suddenly, Lin Yuquan, who looked at the red carpet audience, showed a smile on his face, and as far as he could see, was a girl with black hair, yellow skin, and an oriental face, and in her hand a banner held high, which read in Chinese "Lin Yuquan, can I get your signature?" ”

"Is it Chinese? No, it should be a Chinese girl. Lin Yuquan thought secretly in his heart, and then walked to the red carpet audience, and as he walked, the cheers and screams in the audience became more and more violent.

Across the railing, Lin Yuquan shook hands with the people in front of him with a smile, and when shaking hands with a girl who should be Chinese, he suddenly smiled in Chinese and said to the girl who was particularly excited because of shaking hands with him: "What is your name, are you Chinese?" ”

"Yes, my name is Chen Lin, I currently live in Chicago, Lin Yuquan, I like your movies and your novels very much, can you sign me?" Chen Lin looked at Lin Yuquan excitedly and eagerly.

"Heh, of course." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Oh, thank you so much." Chen Lin excitedly took out a notebook that had been prepared earlier and handed it to Lin Yuquan along with the pen.

After asking the girl what she wanted, Lin Yuquan quickly wrote it and left her signature.

"May the beautiful Chen Lin be happy and happy, and the love will be complete - Lin Yuquan."

"Oh." After seeing Lin Yuquan's signature in the notebook, Chen Lin's face was full of happy expressions.

Lin Yuquan smiled, and then returned to the red carpet area, he was undoubtedly the focus of the scene, like a magnet, attracting celebrities to come to say hello, including many big-name stars.

For such a situation, Lin Yuquan has long been adapted, and in the greetings with everyone, the time soon came when everyone entered the Kodak Theater. (To be continued......)
