Because he was taking his own helicopter, there was no need to be in a hurry, so Lin Yuquan simply did not wake up the second daughter, but patiently waited for the second daughter to wake up.

The sunlight penetrated the lilac curtains and filled the room, Liu Shishi blinked the eyelashes of the show, and woke up from her sleep, sufficient sleep and the operation of the exercises made her spirit indescribably comfortable, Meimei stretched her waist, and took a deep breath of the air of the early morning in San Francisco with a deep heart, and then opened her beautiful eyes.

"Ah, why are you here?" Suddenly seeing Lin Yuquan looking at him with a smile on his face, Liu Shishi suddenly exclaimed, and then thought that his actions just now were all in Lin Yuquan's eyes, and suddenly a dazzling blush appeared on his fair face.

"Why am I here, you ask?" Lin Yuquan pointed at himself with a smile, with a thick smile in his eyes: "Of course I'm here to wake up my snooze princess!" ”

"Who is snooze, I have a normal schedule, okay?" Liu Shishi glanced at Lin Yuquan, and said angrily, her original intention was to lie on the bed unconsciously for a while, but since Lin Yuquan had already gotten up and came to call her, she naturally didn't have the heart to lie on the bed again, gently lifted the quilt, and quickly got dressed in Lin Yuquan's hot sight.

"OK, you go wash up first, I'll go see if Yifei is awake?" Lin Yuquan smiled.

"Okay." Liu Shishi's face suddenly showed a bright smile, and when she heard that Lin Yuquan arrived in her room first, her mood instantly became extremely happy.

After washing up, the three of them sat in the hotel's restaurant, which is indeed a top luxury hotel known for its service, and the breakfast is very rich and delicious.

However, the second daughter's mind was obviously not on breakfast anymore, and as soon as she ate breakfast, she immediately urged Lin Yuquan to set off to buy crabs.

on this. Lin Yuquan naturally didn't have any comments and called Mike. After Harden made arrangements for the return trip, the group of three took a taxi to Fisherman's Wharf.

The sign of Fisherman's Wharf is a circular billboard with a large crab depicted on it, and when you find the billboard, you will come to Fisherman's Wharf, a famous tourist attraction in San Francisco. It is also the first choice to come to the local seafood tasting spot, crabs, shrimp, abalone, gun squid, sea urchins, mackerel, cod from the nearby coast, and the most famous of them is undoubtedly crabs, plus it is the season to eat crabs, you can see crab stalls and restaurants everywhere, even in the morning, there are already a large number of tourists and crab lovers, many people are standing and eating.

Lin Yuquan had already been here last night. No longer surprised by such a scene, the second daughter was amazed and looked around with a happy expression.

"I wouldn't have eaten breakfast at the hotel if I had known, just come here to eat."

"Is there crab meat in that bread too? It looks delicious. ”

Seeing that other people were eating very hard, the second daughter undoubtedly regretted it, knowing that she wouldn't eat so much in the hotel.

"Want to eat? It's not good to buy it directly. Lin Yuquan smiled and pulled the second daughter to one of the crab stalls.

"No, I'm already full. I can't eat it now. Liu Yifei said with a bitter face.

"Ha, who said it was bought to fill my stomach. Just buy one to taste, can't the three of us eat one and still eat it? Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Alright then!" Hearing Lin Yuquan say that, Liu Yifei, who was already hungry, was naturally moved.

Compared with last night's packing and bringing back to the hotel, it is obvious that the hot crab tastes more delicious, Lin Yuquan and the second daughter are very addicted to eating, but unfortunately their stomachs have been eaten as early as the hotel. Fortunately, you can also buy crabs to take back, turning grief and anger into strength, and after buying twenty in one go, the three of them returned to the hotel with a full load, and then went to the airport to take the A119 back to Los Angeles.

Needless to say. Naturally, noon is a hearty and delicious crab feast, and since there is nothing to visit in Los Angeles at this time, after lunch, Lin Yuquan and his second daughter went to the private theater again to watch this year's Oscar hits.

On the wide TV screen, former professional wrestler Randy Brown, who was once a smash hit. Robinson had to leave the wrestling ring to start a new life after escaping a sudden heart attack, working at a small fast-food restaurant, trying to reconcile with his daughter while starting a relationship with an aging stripper.

"I didn't expect Mickey's acting skills to be so good!" Looking at "Wrestler" being played on the screen, Lin Yuquan had a faint smile on his face. Locke's performance undoubtedly greatly exceeded his expectations, and when they worked together on "Hurricane Rescue", he only thought that Mickey. Rock is a pretty good action actor, but like Stallone and Schwarzenegger, due to his advanced age, it is difficult to shine more brightly as an action actor.

Speaking of which, Mickey. Locke's acting career is extremely bumpy, he once had a time when he was in the prime of life, and was known as the king of movie newcomers, and his fame far surpassed that of Nicholas, who debuted at the same time. Cage, Tom. Hanks, Tom. Cruise et al.; also suffered a long period of low ebb because of his personality and temper, interrupted his acting career several times, and returned to the boxing profession; He also squandered opportunities that many people considered gold, and successively missed or rejected works such as "Rain Man", "Untouchable", "Field Platoon", "The Silence of the Lambs", "Pulp Fiction", etc., and if it weren't for "Wrestler", he might soon be forgotten by the public.

Almost all actors have been waiting for such a movie, such a role, and it is obvious that "Wrestler" is a Mickey. The film that Locke has been waiting for, this movie is almost like it was created after his life, and perhaps because of this, Mickey. Locke showed amazing acting skills and became a favorite for this year's Oscar award.

The movie is good, the performances are extremely exciting, and it's no wonder that "Wrestler" is considered one of the best movies of last year, and after watching it, he also knows why Kevin. Garnett and others did not quote too high a price to buy the North American distribution rights of this film, the movie is a good movie, but "Wrestler" is obviously not a movie with a very hot plot, it needs the audience to calm down and watch, which is very demanding for the audience, and then compare with the art film "Milk" of the same genre, Mickey. Locke's box office appeal is obviously not comparable to that of today's Sean. Pan is on a par. On the whole, it is not easy for "Wrestler" to reach the North American box office of $10 million, but it is difficult to reach $20 million, so naturally I dare not quote the price high.

When I was looking at it, the mobile phone rang suddenly, and I took out my mobile phone and saw the name of the caller ID. Lin Yuquan immediately used the remote control to pause the movie, said to the second daughter to answer the phone, and then connected the phone: "Hey, Chris, is there something wrong?" ”

"Boss, didn't bother you, it's like this, the nominations for the Producers' Guild Award just now came out, I don't know if you've seen the news, boss?" Chris. Anderson's smiling voice came from the phone.

"Is it already out? Not yet. Chris, your call came just in time, let me guess first, since you called me, the mood also sounds pretty good, and the results are about to come out, presumably our "Wild Story: Rise of the Apes" must have been nominated for Best Picture. Lin Yuquan smiled slightly.

"Yes, boss, except for our videos. And Benjamin. The Curious Case of Barton, Foster in Conversation with Nixon, Milk, Slumdog Millionaire, and the Golden Globe Award for Best Picture nominations are almost identical. It's just that "The Reader" was replaced by "Milk". "Chris. Anderson said slowly.

"Wow, it's clear!" Lin Yuquan is in a happy mood, and the Producers' Guild Award and the Oscar are quite well matched, and he has become a crucial bellwether for the Oscars since the first edition of 1989, which accurately predicted the reversal of "Drive for Miss Daisy", and in the past five years, the nomination match rate is as high as 80%. That is, all but one of the five nominated films were nominated for the Oscar for Best Picture.

"Yes, boss, the Producers Guild Award nominations have been announced, and the first and second groups of the Academy Award for Best Picture have been completely separated. It's no surprise that our Wild Story: Rise of the Apes will certainly be nominated for an Oscar for Best Picture. "The Curious Case of Barton", "Slumdog Millionaire", "Foster Talks to Nixon" are also relatively safe, depending on who the fifth nominee is, "Milk", "The Reader", "Revolutionary Road", "Robot Wall-E", "The Dark Knight", "Wrestler" are all possible, and most likely "Milk" and "The Reader", especially the latter, Harvey. Weinstein's public relations skills are never to be underestimated. "Chris. Anderson said with a smile.

"That's right, I also think that "The Reader" is more likely to be selected, "Brokeback Mountain", which also tells about homosexuality, was shortlisted just a few years ago, and if "Milk" is shortlisted again this time, wouldn't it show the judges' preference for gay themes? Gay themes are still biased by people in general, and the last time "Brokeback Mountain" was shortlisted, it was largely due to strong topicality and PR publicity, and it seems that Focus Pictures didn't make much noise for "Milk" this time. Lin Yuquan chuckled.

"Yes, boss, it's not surprising, firstly, last time "Brokeback Mountain" was almost the number one favorite, but this time our "Wild Story: Rise of the Ape" and "Slumdog Millionaire", "Benjamin. The Curious Affair of Barton is all over Milk; Second, this is also related to the box office of the film and the financial strength of Focus Pictures, first of all, the current box office momentum of "Milk" is far less good than the original "Brokeback Mountain", and the box office is expected to be difficult to exceed $30 million. Secondly, although Focus Pictures is backed by Universal Pictures, the Olympic bid publicity of "Milk" and "Foster Talks Nixon" is completely carried out separately, Focus Pictures is operated as an independent film company, its own staff scale is not large, and its financial strength is extremely limited, in the case of "Milk" box office and award call are not high, it naturally does not dare to rashly invest tens of millions of dollars in "Milk" Olympic bid public relations publicity, after all, once "Milk" does not win the award in the end, it is bound to lose a lot. "Chris. Anderson's voice came from the phone.

"Well, who are the nominees for Best Animated Film and Best Documentary?" And Chris. Anderson chatted a few words, and Lin Yuquan ended the call.

"Yuquan, what award did "Wild Tales" shortlist for Best Picture?" Liu Shishi immediately asked impatiently.

Although Liu Shishi was preempted, Liu Yifei obviously couldn't get angry, and his clear eyes stared at Lin Yuquan without blinking, waiting for his answer.

"Producers Guild of America Award." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Wow, I know this award before, it is the most important vane of the Oscar Best Picture, and most of the best pictures can win the Oscar Best Picture." Liu Yifei said happily, as if "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Race" had already won the award.

"Well, I also watched it, except for the past few years, it basically coincides with the Oscars, if only "Wild Story: The Rise of the Apees" could win the award." Liu Shishi nodded and said, because of Lin Yuquan's relationship, some time ago, she had a serious understanding of the important awards in the United States.

"Hopefully, it's best to win the prize." Lin Yuquan smiled slightly, compared to the Oscars, the Producers' Guild Award pays more attention to the achievements of the film on the two fronts of art and commerce, which is obviously good news for him: "Okay, let's continue to watch the movie!" ”

Just as he was about to control the movie through the remote control, the phone rang again.

"Hey, it's Lang. Meyer. Lin Yuquan was a little surprised, then answered the phone and said with a smile: "Hi, Lang." ”

"Hi Lin, congratulations on your film being nominated for Best Picture at the Producers Guild Awards."

"Thanks, weren't your "Foster Versus Nixon" and "Milk" also nominated for Best Picture? Congratulations, two nominations, this is very rare. Lin Yuquan smiled.

"Haha, thank you, but the call for our two films to win awards is not as high as your "Wild Story: Rise of the Ape Race"." Bright. Meyer said heartily.

"A call is just a call, whether you can win the award is not certain, before the award results come out, everything is possible, isn't it? Speaking of which, Lang, you definitely didn't call me today just to congratulate me! Lin Yuquan chuckled.

"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you, it's like this, "Speed and Excitement. The editing of "Love 4" has been completed, and now we are waiting for you, the producer, to come and accept the results, if there is anything dissatisfied, we should hurry up and revise it. "Lang. Meyer said with a smile.

"That's it!" Lin Yuquan pondered for a while, and then said: "Okay, it just so happens that I am still free now, I will come to Universal Pictures tomorrow, Lang, you contact Lin Yibin and the main creators behind the editing, soundtrack, special effects, etc., let them all come to the company, and we will watch the film and discuss it together." ”

"No problem, Lin, are you coming to the company in the morning, or in the afternoon?" Bright. Meyer said.

"I came over at nine o'clock in the morning, and at half past nine we started watching the film, and then discussed revisions." Lin Yuquan said without thinking.

“OK。” Bright. Meyer said in a happy mood.

And Lang again. Meyer chatted a few words, Lin Yuquan hung up the phone, and then looked at the second daughter very apologetically: "Sorry, baby, tomorrow I need to go to Universal Pictures to be busy with "Fast and Furious. Love 4", I don't have time to accompany you again. ”

"Brother Yuquan, you are busy, we will take care of ourselves." Liu Yifei smiled sweetly.

"That's right, Yuquan, you don't have to worry about us, just stay with us when you're done!" Liu Shishi said.

"Okay, let's move on to the movie!" Lin Yuquan smiled and didn't say anything, there are some things that don't need to be said, just keep them in your heart. (To be continued.) )

PS: Merry Christmas!
