Chapter 614: Awards

After the opening of the ceremony, Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig appeared to present the best art direction, which was won by Eugenio Cabarbero and Pilar Revelta of Pan's Labyrinth. Maggie Gyllenhaal then recalls the Oscars for Technical Achievement and the Gordon E. Sawyer Awards that were presented a few weeks ago, goes to the commercial, and when the video returns to the theater, the narrator says, "It's an honor to introduce you to a pair of good friends, Ricky Babi and Will Ferrell. ”

In the middle of the stage, the giant door rises into the air amid applause, Barbie sits in front of a piano playing accompaniment, and Farrell sits on the edge of the piano table in the lower right, sniffing a white rose mournfully.

The comedian sang sadly to the piano music: "The comedians who attend the Oscars are the most miserable people, your films make a lot of money, but your name will never be called by them." I don't think you like to laugh, and smiles make you feel depressed! A comedian who attends the Oscars is the saddest, most poignant, drunk clown alone. ”

"Stand back, Will Ferrell!" the music suddenly became light, and the short, round Jack Black rushed out of the large door on the left set of the stage. In the close-up, his chubby face was furious, staring at the camera and singing, "What the hell were you thinking when you took off your pants?

"I thought they would love me. Farrell sang and stood up.

"Do you think you can change the rules of their wicked game? Don't you think they think they suck when you play the screen camera?" Blake became more and more unbearable, "What do you think!?" Farrell sang sadly, "I thought I had a chance to have dinner with Jeremy Irons (63rd Best Actor, Reversal of Fortune)." The theater burst into laughter.

Blake took his arm and walked forward, "We may not win the prize tonight, but we will win the final battle!" I don't mean to just forget it, I'm going to fight the finalists!" He blushed and pointed to the audience. And Farrell was awakened to his senses: "I like the way you say, I've had enough of this crap." Blake glared angrily at the left side of the frame, shouting, "Hey, Leonardo, listen, do you think you're going to win an award if you date a supermodel? I'm going to elbow you in the throat!"

The camera cuts to Leonardo and his mother, who are sitting there, are smiling, and the people around him are also smiling.

"Ryan Gosling, you're hot right now, aren't you, I'm going to kick your ass, right now!" Farrell was also provocative to the right side of the stage. The camera cuts to Gosling smiling to wipe tears from his eyes, and his mother is laughing as well. Blake had already found his next target, and shouted with his head held high: "Peter Otto, you are a legend of the British, I don't care so much, I will use my Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award to knock you down!" he screamed, the guests laughed, Otto was smiling.

"Ye Wei, where are you!!" Farrell shouted fiercely, pointing to the audience, "You are no longer part of us... But I'm not going to be bad with you, you're a hard one to mess with. The camera cut away, Ye Wei smiled calmly, and Farrell apologized again: "I reiterate, I hope you don't hold grudges, you are really talented." Mark Wahlberg!!I... Just wanted to say that you're talented too. Wahlberg was smiling with his lips pursed, and suddenly he lost his smile, and it was clear from the shape of his mouth that he said, "You're polite." ”

This paragraph made the audience burst into laughter, and the audience who didn't understand the joke may be inexplicable. Ye Wei became famous for making comedies and acting in comedies, but this year he acted in a tragedy, he is not easy to provoke refers to the notoriously "violent", but his two times into the game are nothing compared to Wahlberg, who was born in the slums of Boston, Wahlberg committed crimes and went to prison when he was young, and he entered the bureau more than 20 times.

"Helen Mirren, you're so spicy, which party are you going to?" Blake suddenly came up with the idea of "Queen", and the audience laughed, it was always fun to flirt with the old woman.

"Stop, stop!" At this time, a male guest in the middle of the audience stood up and cheered, and Farrell exclaimed, "That's John Reilly." ”

Reilly is a famous stage comedian who played supporting roles for many years after starring in movies, and finally won the 75th Best Supporting Actor nomination for "Chicago", and his career has risen.

Just when everyone was surprised, there were even people booing in the back, but Reilly turned around and silenced them, it turned out that he was also one of the performers. He sang aloud: "Stop the madness, there's no need to be afraid, you can too!Look at me, I don't cry sadly, I don't have a stupid fight, I'm just in Gangs of New York, Chicago and Unruly Nights!" He sang Nights in tenor, turned and ran onto the stage, slid between the two, and sang, "So don't just be a clown, you have to do more different performances, and the Oscar will be yours!"

He was right. Blake nodded in realization, "I'm going to rewrite the script of that lead poisoned man and ask him to sue a big company, then it's not a comedy!" Farrell also said, "Then I'm going to adapt the story of that handsless man teaching gangster Hamlet!" Reilly said, "That's right." ”

All three danced triumphantly, and Farrell continued to sing: "I'm going to lose 40 pounds and play Ralph Nader (lawyer, founder of the modern consumer rights movement, political activist, 2000 presidential campaign to influence Al Gore's defeat to George W. Bush.)] Al Gore was at the ceremony. Blake then sang, "I'm going to do a movie with James Spader, who looks like Al Gore and starred in the TV movie "The Pentagon"!" Farrell said: "Anthony Hopkins (64th Best Actor, "The Silence of the Lambs", also starring in "Nixon" was nominated for the 68th edition. )

There was a lot of laughter in the theater, and the three of them walked forward side by side, singing in chorus: "You can laugh at us, but one day you'll see us shine!" They waved their hands and pointed to the left side of the frame, singing: "Helen Mirren and the Oscars will go home with me!"

The camera cuts to Helen Mirren opening her mouth to laugh, and the guests laugh and applaud.

The trio pointed to Helen Mirren again in a funny chorus, "Helen Mirren will be home with me!"

Laughter, applause, and whistles erupted in the theater at the same time, and the camera swept away, and Mirren also laughed and clapped his palms, and Winslet, Gosling, and Leondo all cheered. The applause didn't stop until Farrell said, "Here's the shortlist for the best makeup," and the comedian's performance was of course a hit with the audience.

After the two winners David Marty and Montesy Ribe received their acknowledgments, 12-year-old Saoirse Ronan and 8-year-old Jaden Smith appeared to present the award for Best Animated Short Film ("The Danish Poet", Trill Cofer) and Best Live Action Short Film ("West Bank Story", Ali Sundale), and the two young actors received more applause than the opening Allen Show.

It was also at this time that the staff came to remind Ye Wei to go backstage to prepare for the award ceremony. Lily clapped her hands with him vigorously: "Come on!" Jennifer and the others all gave him a thumbs up, and he smiled at everyone and said, "Be kind to my stand-in, see you later." "Just go.

Not many viewers are aware of the existence of Oscar extras. The award ceremony lasted for more than three hours, during which the guests who had been present were a small number of guests, most of whom would go to the backstage bathroom, and a group of trained and rehearsed performers were already on standby. They are also all dressed in suits and evening dresses, such a camera background, the audience can't distinguish it, only see that it is full at any time.

Ye Wei followed the staff from the side passage to the aisle at the back of the stage, which was another bustle, the performers were waiting to appear, the guests and winners who had just finished presenting the awards walked back, the on-site reporter Chris Connery of ABC Channel and the camera team were ready to connect the advertising time of the ceremony, and the staff came and went.

He greeted everyone, praised Saoirse who was about to return to the table, and stood by the live TV in the aisle to continue watching the ceremony, which was quite interesting.

After Eastwood's recorded introduction to "Letter from Iwo Jima," one of the Best Picture nominees, Allen took the stage to laugh and lead to the next show, where Steve Sidwell conducted the Sound Choir to perform the various film effects of "Elements and Movement" with human voices, and the audience was impressed by the exact same effect.

"Weige, come with me, you're about to appear!"

......

The sound choir's performance ended with warm applause, and the female narrator said: "Please be nominated for an Oscar, Ye Wei, the producer, director and screenwriter of "Lovely Bones", "Soul Surfer" and "Bones in Winter." ”

As soon as the narration sounded, the Kodak Theater immediately burst into louder applause and shouts, and the girl's excited screams did not appear unexpectedly!

"Ah!! "No matter how much, Nina shouted as she clapped and shouted, so proud of this good friend. Emma, who was not far away, also shouted: "Only!"

"Oooh, this guy is not bad at any time. In the super back row at the bottom row, Liz clapped her palms and praised others, "Tall, athletic, young." She looked at the stage in front of her on the big screen, Ye Wei walked out of the left side of the stage with a white envelope, and walked to the glass podium at the front left in a dashing manner, with a smile on her face.

The camera took the seats of the finalists of the girl trilogy at the right time, and the performance was gone, Toozig, Hax, Saoirse, Alicica, Jennifer, Lily and others all gave a standing ovation, and the camera swept Gosling, Anna Burton, Ryan Flake from "Half Nelson", and Meryl Streep in the first row in the middle were all smiling happily.

These images are watched by more than 40 million North American viewers in front of the TV and more than one billion global audiences, and the long-awaited moment of movie fans will be reported by the global media.

"Hurry up to ABC, VIY!"

"He won the prize?"

"No, he's giving awards!"

Many mobile phones were talking, many remote controls were hurriedly pressed, and those text live broadcast rooms and discussion posts on the Internet scrambled to type: "Ye Wei took the stage to present the best sound clip!"

Ye Wei stood in front of the glass podium, the jubilation of the theater stopped, and all the guests in the audience opened the envelope in their hands when they saw him coming up, and said while opening: "The one who won the Oscar is ......" He was about to take out the result paper to read, laughter burst out, and many guests whistled!

The camera didn't cut, and continued to shoot Ye Wei in the middle shot, he stopped his actions and glanced at the audience with a puzzled expression, "No audience is interested in knowing who won these awards, right, I thought it had to be fast." Laughing and screaming, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "I used to be like this, watching the Oscars every year, I think who cares about these people? ”

The laughter made the camera reverse and shoot at the guest seats with a panoramic view, and it was impossible to see so many smiling faces in the rows of seats.

Ye Wei paused and then continued: "I don't know why they asked me to present this award, do I seem to do or understand sound editing?

The laughter with higher decibels did not stop, a round of applause rang out, and the camera took it, and Jack Nicholson, wearing sunglasses, was almost happy. Ye Wei smiled, "Later, after making a movie, I realized how important these people are, I have to care about them, otherwise I will be very embarrassed now, if I don't have a laughing sound effect." ”

The laughter sound effect is commonly used in sitcoms, and every laugh is hahahaha. This time there was another burst of laughter, and everyone and the whole ceremony were ridiculed.

"Here is the list of nominees for Best Sound Editing. Amid applause, chants and whistles, Ye Wei looked at the envelope and read: "Sean McCormack, Cami Yasgar, "The Book of Revelation", Ron Bender, "Blood Diamond", Alan Robert Murray, "Bab Yasman", "The Banner of the Fathers", Alan Robert Murray, Babu Yasman, "Letter from Iwo Jima", Christopher Boyers, George Waters II, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Coffin". ”

As he reads out, the big screen and live video show clips of each film, images of the nominees working in the sound editing room.

"The Oscar winner is ......" The camera returned to Ye Wei, he took out the result paper in the envelope and looked at it, and read: "Alan Robert Murray, Babu Yasman, "Letter from Iwo Jima", bless you and the other seven nominees. ”

Before Ye Wei's words fell, the theater resounded with the congratulations of the guests. It is true that no audience cares about these people, there is no division of the picture, and the camera does not go to see what the reaction of the loser is, as soon as he leaves Ye Wei, he shoots at the two old man winners, and they happily hug everyone around them.

The narrator takes Ye Wei's words and introduces the two, both of whom are nominated for the first time (1\/6,1\/4), and Murray's father is a surviving veteran of the Battle of Iwo Jima.

Suddenly, at this time, some of the guests' brain circuits came over, no! The other seven nominees?

"Haha. Amy couldn't help but smile and praise, watching Ye Wei on the stage take the little golden figure from the ceremonial staff and then award it to the winner, most people didn't notice that they were being tricked by him.

His speech was not like the pompousness of Jack Black before, he didn't joke with anyone, and he didn't say anything bad, he captured human nature, spoke for the general audience, and introduced and praised the sound effect editing, the laughter is evocative, this is humor.

But why did she run away when she saw me? Amy wanted to chat with the boy she could still snatch at any time.

The audience must want to listen to more VIY, but unfortunately Ye Wei presented this award, after he and Murray walked into the backstage passage, James McAvoy and Jessica Bell appeared on the stage to present the best sound effects, which was won by "Dream Girl".

Then last year's Best Supporting Actress Rachel Weisz took the stage to present Best Supporting Actor!
