Chapter 498: The First Little Golden Man

"Duke? Rosenberg is not one of the best directors on the planet. ”

The TV show screen switches to the studio, Roger? Albert continued to talk as if he had won a big victory, "Without the recognition of the Oscar statuette, no matter how good he is in business, that is, with Michael? Bey stays at the same level, and he can't get Oscar's approval......"

Look away from the TV, Norman? Miller suppressed the urge to spit on the ugly guy on the TV, and his eyes were fixed on the computer screen opposite, and countless people in his instant sharing circle of friends had already begun to abuse.

Against Roger? Albert's invective!

As lovers of Rosenberg-style films, they naturally know who several of Duke's enemies are, and they also understand the origin of the grievances between the two sides.

"For my own selfishness, I just talk about it on TV, and I am a Pulitzer Prize winner, I bah!"

His circle of friends has almost swiped the screen.

"Is anyone going to gag this ugly ghost? He's disgusting than a fly! ”

"I was in a good mood every time I watched the Oscars, but when I saw Roger at the opening? Albert, it always makes people want to vomit! ”

"He said Duke couldn't win the award? It's as if the Oscars were opened by film critics, and professional film critics are something! ”

"A bunch of obsolete and obsolete garbage!"

Norman? Miller was relatively calm, and the one he sent was also very restrained, "When Duke wins the Oscar, I don't know what color this guy's face will become!" ”

"I'm going to be stunned......"

"Maybe I'll be......"

"Let's not talk about it, the awards ceremony is about to start."

The Kodak Theater has gradually turned quiet. Taking advantage of the time when Ivanka went to other places to greet people, Mrs. Leah, who had only arrived in the afternoon, asked some questions.

"I've heard some not-so-good news in New York." She whispered. "Ivanka is interested in bringing Donald's Trump Organization into your company."

Duke nodded, "I've been dragged down for the time being." ”

Ivanka wants to take the company public, and before the listing, she is preparing to carry out a rights issue, and the most important aspect of the rights issue is to bring in funds from the Trump Organization.

Although Ivanka didn't say it explicitly, Duke actually got the news when he was in Paris. And then the listing was dragged down.

This happened after Ivanka returned to New York a few times, and Duke knew very well, just like Lady Leah did to him. Donald's father is just as important to Ivanka, and it's clear that Donald? Trump used family affection as a weapon to move Ivanka.

However, Duke is not going to deal with Donald? Trump has backed down again. Man's greed is limitless. Too much concession will only invite more greed.

"I'm measured." Duke whispered.

Lady Leah patted his hand gently, she was still a little worried, worried that Duke would be blinded.

Ivanka quickly walked over, and unlike usual, Mrs. Leah only nodded at her slightly.

The music on the stage suddenly sounded, everyone looked ahead, and as the others clapped their palms together, the 76th Academy Awards ceremony kicked off.

Maybe it's because the ratings of the past few years have been miserable. This year's awards ceremony not only has a more gorgeous stage setting, but also has a bit of a retro taste of the 90s.

Billy? After a three-year absence. Once again on the stage hosted by the Oscars, and cut into the films that were nominated, he and Russell? Chloe sets sail in "The Furious Sea", and Johnny? Depp competed in swordsmanship and catwalk, after cutting off Vigo? Mortenson's avatar shows him holding up the Sacred Sword of Anduriel, taking the form of Legolas and killing the mammoth elephant, and even all of them. Nude appearances......

For the sake of ratings, the comedian really fought hard.

"It's time." Arwen encouraged him, "Oscar needs you!" ”

"Take all the honor you hold dear and get back to the Oscar stage......" shouted Aragorn, who swung his sword on the Prancing Horse.

"You'd better keep up with this job, Mistress Christo." Captain Barbossa, who has turned into a skeleton, solemnly warns.

Finally, he was in the white robe of Jack? Nicholson's escort passed through the White City of St. and came to the Kodak Theater.

"It's your turn." Jack with a cane? Nicholson took off his signature sunglasses and handed them to Billy? Christo, "Go get a full house, Billy!" ”

"Let me give them a good look!" Billy? Christo put on his eyes and walked into the Kodak Theater.

A bright light on the stage, Billy? As soon as Christop appeared, he received a round of applause, and the best Oscar supporter at the turn of the century, even without saying a word, had already won the audience with bursts of laughter.

In tease, Charlize? Theron and Johnny? After a few words from Depp, the famous comedian took out his Oscar-winning repertoire - the nominated film singing skewer.

"Where is Sophia? Coppola, the first-ever American woman to be nominated for Best Director...... It only took her 47 days to finish the film, and her friend, who had just taken that time, had just finished Ilya? Wood woke up from his sleep......"

"Frodo and Sam were walking in the mysterious land, and Smith suddenly jumped out, like Jenny? Jackson's right breast! Britney and Jennifer? Lopez dumped her husband after watching this movie, they thought the film was called a retirement ring......"

"Lithium salts, sake, Xiaoyao pills and psychedelics, and Truman? Drugs provided by Capote", Billy? Christo took aim at Duke again, "Duke? That's what Rosenberg ate when he made the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and he made such a great trilogy, he was as good as God, and I loved every frame of the Lord of the Rings! Duke? Rosenberg, maybe your name will be read on stage tonight! ”

Next, Billy? Christo teased Russell again? Chloe and Clint? Eastwood, the first award has officially arrived.

As the guest of honor, it was an old acquaintance of Duke - Catherine? Zeta Jones.

Although the British actor starred in "Chicago" ahead of schedule, resulting in only being nominated for Best Supporting Actress that year, last year, he still won Best Supporting Actress for a literary film.

Seeing this waist-length and slightly plump actress, Ivanka frowned slightly, it was the first time she accompanied Duke to attend the Oscars, and the experience was definitely not too pleasant, although she had heard of Duke's previous lace for a long time, and she didn't care too much in her heart, but these people kept jumping in front of her, and it was not something that made people happy.

As a group play, "The Return of the King" was not shortlisted for any acting awards, Catherine? Zeta-Jones was awarded Best Supporting Actor by Tim? Robbins got it in the bag.

Duke applauded softly with the audience, the moment that belongs to the Lord of the Rings trilogy still needs to wait.

He knows very well that like "Titanic" that year, even if it is nominated, "The King Comes" will not make a difference in the acting awards.

Commercial films and group dramas combined, if you want to win an acting award, it's too difficult.

As a die-hard fan of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Brad? Miller has been following Oscars, and he's in an IT job, like many young people, with his computer and TV on at the same time, watching live broadcasts and keeping an eye on the web.

"This site is really good!"

He landed on his instant share account, a newly emerging social networking site that has surpassed blogs to become the most popular social networking site in the United States with its ultra-fast response time and simple and smooth sharing functions.

"What's next?"

Someone in the circle of friends was asking a question, and someone immediately replied below, "Best Art Direction!" "The Return of the King" has been shortlisted for this award! ”

"Oh, the first award, I wonder if I can win the opener?"

"It must be possible, think about the nominated films, which one can surpass "The Return of the King" in the background?"

See this, Brad? Miller thought back on the nomination for this award, and couldn't help but nod slightly, the gap between the other films nominated at the same time and "The Return of the King" is too obvious, if this award does not fall on the head of the Lord of the Rings, then the most basic fairness of the Oscars will be questioned.

Got to Bled? Miller is an age that is enough to see a lot of things, even if he is not a Hollywood insider.

On the TV screen, Angelina, as the guest of honor? Julie took to the stage to present the first award related to "The Return of the King".

On live TV, Roope asked Roger? Albert, "Roger, which film do you think this award will go to?" ”

"'Angry Seas'!" Roger? Albert replied without hesitation, as if he could decide the award, and explained, "'Clash of the Seas' uses more traditional sets, while 'Return of the King' is more of a computer stunt, and the former is more eligible for this award than the latter." ”

Angelina on stage? Julie had already come to the microphone, and the two immediately fell silent.

"The art director's job is to design and sketch everything on the screen that will make you believe that you are in a hippodrome, that you are in a hobbit house or a British ship, or even a samurai village in Japan......"

After the routine string of words, Angelina? Julie said to the picture on the big screen on stage, "The nominees for Best Art Direction are-Hannah in "The Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King"? Serena, the book "The Girl with a Pearl Earring"? Vanos and Sisr? Hydeman, Lily of The Last Samurai? Cleavent, "Pentium Age" Jenny? Claudina, William of the Fury Sea? Haidel ......"

Hearing the list of nominees read out, the air in the place where the Lord of the Rings crew was located seemed to be a little stagnant, not just Hannah? Serena, even Ilya? Wood, Billy? Boyd, Vigo? Mortenson and others are a little nervous, after all, if the film wins, they also have a share of the honor.

And a successful start often represents a happy ending! (To be continued......)
