Chapter 276: Understanding the King and Madness
"On January 3, '96, James Cameron called me to his house and asked me to pick out my favorite one among a bunch of photos, and in his words, 'We'd better find a guy you want to marry at first sight, and if you can't even move yourself, how can you move others?' β
"So, I rummaged through the photos there, and by the time I got to you, the casting was over."
"I took the picture and told James, either call you or I'll leave."
"Then, I got your information."
"To be honest, when I opened the information, there was a buzzing sound in my brain, and the first thing I saw was nationality, and it said UK, so I didn't look at your height and weight at the second glance, but slid into acting experience, and that bunch of Shakespeare's plays and Jane Austen's 'Sense and Sensibility' made my head hurt, and I was like, 'It's over, I don't know this, I don't have any research on William's plays, how do I talk to this girl?' β
"I was very panicked, and I made up some knowledge, and then, you saw through it......"
"I will never forget that night, we stood on the top of that hill with a Hollywood sign, you rubbed my face, made me be a little more sincere, although you pierced my disguise, but when I learned that you liked me for five years, I was really very happy, didn't you just praise me in front of me for being handsome? At the same time, my hanging heart also let go, I think that since the two of us are looking at each other, the next relationship should be very smooth, right? β
"As I expected, in the past two years, we have only been separated for a handful of time, although more than a year of this time was dedicated to the preparation and filming of "Titanic", but it is also an indisputable fact that you put down all your work to accompany me."
"Between us, there may not be the ups and downs that outsiders want to hear, and there is no life and death like Jack and Ruth, but I think it's good enough, and I'm sure no one wants to see you push me into the sea for the second time."
"More than 700 days of getting along, for those who have walked through their lives hand in hand, is indeed very short, but those guys, all from this more than 700 days, we have a good start, and I hope that the good will continue, so I asked David to help me buy the Wittelsbach blue diamond and cut it into its current shape."
"Familiar, right? It was cut at the 'Ocean Star', and I named it 'Future'. β
"When I meet you, I meet my future."
When Roland personally put on the 'Ocean Star' Minus version, a necklace he called 'the future', Kate, who had been able to restrain her emotions and did not cry when she won the Best Actress, finally couldn't hold back the tears that snatched her eyes.
A series of tears continued to slide down her cheeks, even if she was on the stage, even if she knew that there were hundreds of viewers below, even if she understood that this was a national live broadcast, she still covered her mouth and nose with her hands, her undulating chest seemed to tell the world her excitement, and the trembling that was visible to the naked eye showed the joy in her heart to the fullest.
Just when she looked at the lover in front of her with complicated eyes, her mind was blank, and she didn't know what to say even if she tried to organize the language, Roland, who had finished putting the necklace on her, took a step back and put her right hand into her trouser pocket.
A ring box, which he pulled out.
After opening, the heart-shaped pink diamond was faithfully presented on the big screen by the ABC photographer who rushed to the stage with the camera on his shoulder.
Then, Roland got down on one knee.
Looking up at Kate, he smiled and said, "We have been together for more than seven hundred days, but I have never given you a ring." β
"Because I think giving a ring is a very sacred thing, if we give a ring before we think it through, the meaning of the ring will only add a lot of burden to our steadily growing relationship."
"When we have been to each other's homes and have a certain understanding of each person's growth environment and growth experience, and we can still be happily together, I personally feel that the foundation for giving rings is already there."
"So, I went and prepared it."
"According to my vision, I was going to give it to you after the Oscars."
"We got acquainted through movies, so I also hope that our relationship can continue as long as the movie."
"However, since the judges have chosen me and let me stand on this stage, now is the best opportunity."
"So, I wanted to give it to you here......"
"In the meantime, I want to ask you a question......
"Kate, would you like to marry me?"
"Oh~~~"(β)
"ε»~~~"(βββ)
"Promise him !!"
As soon as Roland's words fell, the still silent venue instantly boiled.
Previously, when Roland asked for time and hoped that the guests would not drive him down, the insiders present were very puzzled, because they really couldn't figure out what this guy wanted to say on stage.
Slap them in the face with a wave of slaps?
Or do you arrogantly show your fists?
Or is it a disss of a rotten program?
Whatever the case is, it's the result they don't want to see.
If you follow the process to win the award, then follow the process to make a speech.
First express your surprise and excitement, then tell the story of your growth, express how hard it has been over the years, and then thank all the guys who have helped you on the surface, thank the judges who chose you, the fair and just college, and the countless fans who supported you, and finally give a summary of the emotion, and step down, isn't it over?
As for the other things that are out of your mouth?
You don't need to prepare for this!
Don't you make a fuss!
Back then, your teacher sprayed all over the college judges because he didn't win the Oscar, but you won it!
However, their worries did not last long, and they were calmed by the necklace that Roland had taken out.
And when Roland took out the ring in the box and held it in the air, just waiting for Kate to reach over, the coaxing shouts, the unexpected exclamations, and the celebratory applause were all intertwined, becauseβ
They're all going to be wrong.
Or, at this moment, everyone was possessed by the king of understanding!
βOhοΌ ShitοΌ Roland tried his best to get Steven and the Big Six to help him make such a big move, and the result was to propose marriage on the Oscars, a national live broadcast? Oh, my God! If I were Kate, I'd go with him tomorrow! β
Robert Duval, who had received a call from Steven Spielberger, applauded, but also complained to Dustin Hoffman next to him with a shocked face: "Is the young man playing so crazy now? β
Dustin Hoffman, who also only knew that Roland was going to win the award and didn't know that he was proposing, shook his head and set his eyes on Martin Scorsese, who was present today to present the honorary award, and found that the old man was also applauding in surprise, so he said: "Maybe...... Wasn't it rumored before that Roland deliberately disgusted Harvey for Kate's sake? β
"And Tom also told me that Kate really loves Roland, and during the filming of "Saving Private Ryan", she was with the team throughout the filming, and Roland also loves Kate, and the emotional scenes are all framed by her."
"The relationship between the two is so good, so the marriage proposal should be the motivation for winning the award, right?"
"What do you mean by should? He's already done it on stage! We've all been deceived by him! β
Sitting next to the two, Robert De Niro, who was in charge of handing out the Best Documentary award tonight, laughed and scolded: "Steven and Roland are hiding too deep!" I've always wondered why a guy like Roland, who doesn't care about awards at all, suddenly wants to rush to the Olympics? It turns out that Chong Ao is fake, and proposing marriage on stage is real! β
"He must have made such a big deal out of the fact that we were worried that the purpose of our ascension was just to not vote for him after we learned that he was on stage! And that Steven! It's an accomplice! β
That's right! After seeing Roland get down on one knee and propose to Kate, the guys who don't know what kind of deal Roland has with the Big Six all think crookedly, they think that Roland won the award because of the proposal, not because he won the award.
In their opinion, Roland, a guy with countless thick legs, has no need to rush to win the award.
Continue to mix in the business field, and when the age is almost old, it's just a matter of forming an all-gold lineup.
You're only 10 years and 100 months old now, and it's too easy to get a tongue when you win an award at this age.
But if it's for the proposal, then they'll be able to understand.
What girl doesn't want her man to know how to be romantic?
And at the Oscars, a live broadcast watched by tens of millions of people at the same time, the marriage proposal was proposed......
This special code is something that I don't even dare to write!
Unlike the hundreds of guests who guessed the situation wrong, the senior executives of the media giants who watched the live broadcast at home and Steven Spielberg, who was in charge of matchmaking, were stunned at the moment!
Knowing the inside story, they didn't expect that in the face of the most ambiguous clause in the transaction, 'to make a big news', Roland actually invested his whole life to stud in?
Hold the grass!
We have been in business for so many years, and we have never seen such a real partner!
Michael Eisner, who had asked Roland to confess properly at the Oscars, stared at the TV in amazement, and at one point, he even wondered if he was still asleep.
"Child, although I haven't communicated with you, I have read your information and collected your information......"
"A lot of people say you're boring, and if it weren't for the fact that you have parents, they'd even suspect that you're Steven's son, because you're like him, you know how to play video games all day long......"
"Before, when I heard this kind of comment, I laughed at best, but now, ......"
"How could you be Steven's son!"
"How could that introverted guy give birth to a madman like you?"
"Proposing at the Oscars?"
"Can you do this kind of thing?"
"A box office record in film history! Oscar for Best Actor and Actress! Propose at the Oscars! And what 'hope' is the Wittelsbach blue diamond cut from? And that heart-shaped pink diamond ring? β
"Wait, CNN seems to have reported before that there was a wealthy American businessman who bought a bunch of gems for 50 million, and among them, there were 2.3 carat pink diamonds, and Wittelsbach blue diamonds......"
βOhοΌ FuckοΌ In order to propose, you smashed 50 million just for the jewelry that you can see? β
Thinking of this number, the Disney tyrant was stunned.
While frozen, he also admired Roland's behavior unusually.
He just likes this kind of guy who does things with him!
While expressing his shock at Roland's real commotion of the extreme, the Disney emperor directly dialed ABC's phone, "Tell me, how many ratings are there?" β
"55 million when Kate won the prize? When James won the prize, 59 million? Sixty-four million when Roland won the prize? When you propose, it reached 71 million? And the numbers are still rising? β
"By the time the best picture comes out, it's expected to reach 75 million?"
"Did you miscalculate? Can Roland's marriage proposal drive more than 20 million viewers? It's eleven o'clock at night! β
"What? That's right? β
"IMDb and Yahoo have been crowded? Now there's only one MSN left to call the server? β
"Roland has choked his own industry with his own hands? Give Microsoft a new lease of life? β
Yes, when ABC dutifully delivered Kate's award-winning images to all corners of America, thousands of families were filled with voices that voiced their own exclamations into televisions.
Kate actually won the prize?
She actually won Best Actress?
So what about our Roland?
There are only six times in the history of the Oscars that the Best Actress and Best Actor have been awarded to the people in a play at the same time!
That group of judges definitely did it on purpose!
Then the scolding began on the Internet......
Don't look at Roland and Kate have been officially announced, but if there is a problem, nine out of ten fans are still on Roland's side.
After all, I watched him for eight years, accompanied him to break a series of records, and sent his movies to the top three box office in film history......
Compared with Roland, Kate, an Englishman, is an outsider.
If Kate is against someone else, then they will definitely stand firmly on Kate's side, but if Roland and Kate have a conflict, they must protect Roland's interests, after all, from the perspective of fans who decide their heads with their butts, Kate can get the official announcement, it is all Gao Pan, even if the relationship between the two is good, Roland can't be damaged because of Kate's interests.
So, for a while, the Internet was full of posts on the Internet to persuade them to break up, spray judges, punch the same batch of nominees, and step on the Academy Oscars......
The scolding was even stronger.
In this crazy attack, IMDb was the first to die, and after IMDb's netizens switched to Yahoo, Yahoo also went down one after another, and when the two websites exploded one after another, most of the guys who wanted to continue cursing poured into MSN.
This perennial Yahoo website has inexplicably become the most visited portal on the Internet in real time.
became the most beautiful cub at the moment in an instant.
Of course, Microsoft is also confused.
Because they have never seen a competitor die on the traffic news of their own boss.
Your boss can drain traffic, but you can't eat the traffic attracted by your boss?
This, this, this...... It's just a free giveaway!
And with the influx of these people, the MSN community suddenly became a miasma.
Of course, while disturbing the atmosphere, they actually made a certain contribution to the ratings.
Some people who originally thought that Roland couldn't win the award, in order not to be sad, so they didn't watch the live broadcast, and the guys who waited for the results on MSN also turned on the TV in a distraught way after seeing those offensive words, they wanted to know which unlucky kid would win the best actor who couldn't win.
And then......
Roland's name spread throughout thousands of households, and swept through America.
οΌοΌοΌ
When the guys who were watching the live broadcast while frantically typing on the keyboard found out that Roland actually won the Oscar for Best Actor, the guys who were still there Fuckyou froze all froze.
Roland won the prize?
Roland actually won the prize??
The academy actually gave the award to Roland???
Did we scold the wrong person?
Shouldn't we scold the Academy??
We should target the previous awards that were not given to him???
Is the Academy different from other awards, or is it fair and equitable?
After this self-doubt appeared, the number of new posts and replies on MSN dropped sharply during that period.
Before these guys could recover, Roland gave an acceptance speech that was not an acceptance speech.
When Roland puts a necklace on Kate, which is highly similar to the one in the movie, the devil cries wolf-like excitement and bravely comes out......
Kate, who couldn't wait for the cry, stretched out her hand and let Roland put a ring on her, and then threw herself into Roland's arms regardless of the image, holding Roland's head and giving the most eager response......
Microsoft, which was still laughing at Amazon and Yahoo just now, can't laugh anymore......
Because MSN was also down......
Not only that, but the guys who were tearing Kate apart before have completely forgotten what they have done......
"Oh my God! Oh, my God!! Oh, my God!!! I can't breathe, okay!! β
"That necklace is too pretty, isn't it? Where can I buy a pink diamond heart-shaped ring? Roland is so attentive! β
"Roland won the Oscar for Best Actor and his acceptance speech turned out to be 'Kate, will you marry me?'??"
"Roland proposed to someone? The guy I've liked for eight years is getting married?? Yes!!! Lord's youth is over!! β
"It's so touching! It's so touching!! I don't know why I'm crying!! But I just cried!!! β
"It's so romantic! A live marriage proposal in the United States! I envy Kate! Compared to Roland, my boyfriend is as stupid as a pig! β
"When I watched "Titanic", I wanted to beg them to get married on the spot, and now ...... I really saw Roland propose to Kate, why is my heart so uncomfortable? Is it because I haven't found someone who loves me? Wrong! It's definitely not my problem, it must be that God is only looking out for them! I'm going to see Titanic once tomorrow! It seems that the DVD will also be released tomorrow? Then buy a box too! "My Heart Is Eternal" is also on the shelves tomorrow? Oh, my God! I'm going to buy it too! My God! Would you please look at me when you look at them? I just want a boyfriend who loves me...... Uh, have to be handsome? In the famous point? And then a little richer? Best still be as romantic as Roland? β
