The Oscar red carpet show, which hundreds of millions of viewers will watch, is underway, and the official ABC channel is in progress.

"I'm Chris Connelly, and welcome to the 2007 Oscar Walk of Fame with me!"

Connally, a well-known ABC reporter, appeared on the bustling red carpet on the TV screen, his gray suit and purple tie, and his middle-aged smiling face flushed with white hair, and said into the microphone: "The reporters and cameras are in different areas, and together we will keep the superstars on this red carpet." While admiring these beautiful scenes, we can also feel the warm atmosphere here, and celebrate with tonight's award presenters, performers, and finalists! ”

The camera pans to Leonardo being interviewed by Connery, his brown hair combed back and his handsome face with a trademark smile.

"Nominated for Best Actor for the performance of "Blood Diamond", and one of the leading actors of "The Departed", welcome to the event again, Leon. ”

"Thank you, I'm glad to be here tonight, I appreciate both films. Leonardo said to the handing over microphone.

Connery added: "Let's talk about 'Blood Diamond' first, you have so many options, why would you want to do this movie?" Leonardo then replied: "It's very difficult for you to come across a film that takes the world seriously, and the controversy caused by diamonds is a very important issue, and I really want to support this topic, and I hope that Hollywood will make more films like this in the future." ”

Connery nodded and asked, "You're also very good at "The Departed, this is the third time you've worked with Martin Scorsese." You've said you've been lucky to work with him, how did he guide you on the show?"

"Words are hard to describe. Leonardo replied, "He is my favorite director and my teacher." He's a film historian, he's the guy I've ever met who values filmmaking and history the most, and it's been a wonderful experience to work with him. ”

"It's a perfect combination for you and for him. Connery praised.

"Thank you. Leonardo thanked him.

"Please enjoy tonight's extravaganza. Connery ended the interview with a blessing, Leonardo turned to leave, Connelly looked at the camera and smiled: "Now turn the camera to Lisa Ling and see the pomp and circumstance elsewhere on the red carpet." Lisa?"

"Thanks, Chris. As soon as the camera turned, the famous Chinese-American host and reporter Ling Zhihui also smiled, she was wearing a black off-the-shoulder evening dress, quite stylish. She waved her hand to explain where she was: "This is where the awards show really begins, where the stars get off the bus, they get off the high-end limousine, smile at the camera, and then step on the red carpet on the road to the Oscars." ”

The Oscar red carpet has its human side, with a white roof and red curtain at the entrance, a temporary large tent with front and back doors, and the guests get off the car and walk into the tent, rest their feet, touch up their makeup, and eat a buffet when they are hungry, and walk out of the tent and step on the red carpet in the best condition.

Ling Zhihui was standing by the front door of the tent, which was the real starting point, and he could see the passers-by who were blocked by the fence and security guards in the distance, as well as the guests who were getting out of the car to enter the venue. She took a few steps to the left, the camera moved horizontally, and the three people on the left entered the camera, and she smiled: "The three guests next to me, this boy doesn't need to introduce Ye Wei." Weige, welcome back to the Oscars. ”

Ye Wei, who is on the far left, smiled at the camera and said very poetically: "The Oscar statue is still standing there, but the people are different." ”

Ling Zhihui continued to introduce the two female guests to his right: "These two young and beautiful girls are both first-time Oscar finalists Jennifer Lawrence, the second youngest nominee for the award, 16 years old, and Alicika Vikander, who is nominated for Best Supporting Actress, from Sweden, 18 years old, is very, very young. You all created great performances in Winter's Bones. ”

Both girls smiled and said thank you.

Jennifer wore an off-the-shoulder white floor-length dress, a slender and straight figure, delicate brown hair, simple and gorgeous silver earrings and pearl necklaces, and a light gold Gucci classic plaid plaid pouch in her hand, all of which made her bright and moving, like a noble princess, without the air of a Kentucky tomboy.

Alicia is wearing a low-cut red dress with an open back, her long dark brown hair hangs down sideways, there are no extra accessories to compete for the beauty of her snow-white skin, and she is wearing a silver bracelet and carrying a black Gucci classic handbag, with strong contrast in bright colors, sexy and charming, but fresh and natural.

"The two are also friends in life. Ling Zhihui asked with a smile. They nodded yes, and Alicia replied first: "In the process of acting in this movie, we have achieved friendship with each other, and we cherish it." Jennifer took over: "We grew up very different, but we just happened to stand each other. ”

Ling Zhihui asked again: "You have all achieved amazing achievements at such a young age, what impact does the Oscar nomination have on your career and life?"

This time, Jennifer smiled and replied first: "The impact is too great, I live another life." I used to be nobody, but now the whole world knows me. Alicia continued, "I think the biggest impact is that you have the opportunity to be there and talk to the best filmmakers in the world, which is a great way to broaden your horizons. ”

In the process of their answers, Ye Wei looked at them with interest, as if he was watching something beautiful.

Ling Zhihui asked instead, "What about you? It's a miracle that you have four nominations for "Winter's Bones" and "Lovely Bones", Best Picture, Best Director, and two Best Adapted Screenplays. ”

"Yes, I agree. Ye Wei smiled and said, "This even cured my depression, but I have a hunch that after the ceremony, it will come back and be more serious." ”

The two girls both laughed, and Ling Zhihui also laughed, "Thank you, I wish you three a happy night." The three of them said thank you, and Ye Wei took the lead in walking to the door of the tent over there, and they followed behind. The screen image became a split screen, and Connery smiled in the other frame, "Thanks, Lisa, I interviewed Jennifer Hudson here." ”

Ling Zhihui nodded and smiled, "I'll leave it to you, Chris." ”

......

At four o'clock in the afternoon in Los Angeles, the Walk of Fame in front of the Kodak Theater was bustling with activity.

After Ye Wei and the three of them were interviewed by Ling Zhihui, they stopped at the entrance tent for a while, they checked their makeup and made up the powder, he took a rose from the vase of flowers on the buffet table and put it in his pocket, laughed and talked with other guests, and when they were ready, they walked to the red carpet at the exit together.

As soon as the three of them stepped out of the tent, the sun and lights suddenly rushed into their faces, and the lucky audience shouted excitedly, and the media gallery was also in an uproar.

There is no end in sight to the long red carpet, guests stop in front of different media booths, glamorous actresses pose for photographers to capture, some are being interviewed by TV cameras, some are being interviewed by print media, reporters are calling for guests, and staff are busy in the background.

There is no limit to the red carpet, and any guest can go directly to the red carpet like a fast lane separated by a red belt on the railing, or they can go through the photos and interviews of the media, find someone to chat and take a group photo, until it is time to open and be driven into the theater by the staff.

Stars want to walk the Oscar red carpet because of these global media, for Jennifer and Alicia, although they are in the limelight during the awards season, the fame created by the 20 million box office is not as good as that of Liz with 140 million.

And Ye Wei doesn't need to be like this anymore, and he has no interest in constantly telling reporters how he feels, unless it's Lily!

They walked slowly, stopping from time to time to get some photo taken by the Hollywood Reporter and other photographic media. Well-known photographers such as Jeff Vespa, Steve Granitz, Kevin Mayer and others have taken enough shots. Almost, Ye Wei said to the two girls, "I'll go first, see you inside." He strode away, keeping his eyes on the media booth.

He knew where he was, and despite the loud greetings from media reporters along the way, he didn't stop, walking behind Nicole Kidman in the red dress and Naomi Watts in the yellow dress, and then walked past Cameron Diaz in the white dress, Emily Blunt in the blue dress, and Jodie Foster in the gray and blue dress......

When passing by a four-seat camera media, a reporter shouted in Chinese: "Brother Wei! We are reporters from China CCTV 6, can you do an interview?" Ye Wei paused slightly, waved his hand, and said, "I'm sorry, I'll see you later." I walked on, and after a few steps, a reporter from the sidelines shouted: "VIY, hello! We are journalists from Canal+ in France, and your film is very popular in France." Ye Wei smiled at the other party as he walked: "I have a date, it's not Eva Green, see you later." ”

He was determined to give Lily the first red carpet interview of the year, and he couldn't stop the ABC booth, when suddenly his eyes lit up, haha I saw it!

Not far ahead, there are three cameras with the Nickelodeon's rotten green mud logo, and the cameraman is operating the broadcast camera set up inside, while a young reporter in a white dress is holding a wireless microphone and interviewing Kirsten Dunst with a smile.

Although she was not wearing a grand formal evening dress, she was the most beautiful in his opinion. Because the work is only a red carpet interview, she will attend the ceremony as his female companion afterwards.

"My girl, yes. Ye Wei slowed down and walked over.

......

"Kirsten, you look beautiful. At the beginning of the interview, Lily complimented Kirsten on the fact that she was dressed in a powder blue see-through mermaid dress designed by Karl Lagerfeld, with blonde hair tied into a knot and a few strands of bangs covering her forehead, which was both sexy and elegant, dazzling.

She's already in the working mood, thanks to the ease of interviewing the Gyllenhaal siblings. Kirsten is definitely a big bonus, and this is a superstar for kids. She smiled: "This is your third time as an Oscar, and today you will co-award the best original screenplay with Tobey Maguire, "Spider-Man 3" is like being released early at the Oscars." ”

"Thank you, it's always fascinating and I'm glad to be part of it again. Kirsten replied with a smile, "I'm looking forward to presenting the award with Toby, and we've got a fun presentation ready." ”

"Can't wait to find out. Lily smiled and nodded, and then asked, "Aside from being so beautiful on the red carpet, what do you like to do in your daily life?"

"I love spending time with my cat, it's a lot of fun. Kirsten said in a serious tone, "It can hold me, and I can eat it if I'm really hungry." Both burst out laughing. Lily laughed, "You're not a dieter. Kirsten replied: "I don't diet, I don't eat vegetarian, I don't think for me, there is no problem with eating." A lot of young girls are haunted by clichéd beauty, and I try to break them. ”

"Awesome concept of life, thank you Kirsten. Lily smiled and said that she had seen a figure walking towards her, and she had been interviewing for enough time.

Kirsten said thank you and walked forward, Lily didn't need to scream, looked at the camera and raised her eyebrows, and laughed loudly: "This guest is known as a film genius, he made the most exciting movie in the world at the age of 19, he competed for Best Director and Best Picture for the second year in a row, and was also shortlisted for Best Adapted Screenplay, he is talented, Ye Wei!"

"Thank you, Lily, thank you. In the lively red carpet, Ye Wei walked into the camera range of Nickelodeon and stood on Lily's right hand.

He looked at her, and she looked at him, smiling at each other, everything around seemed to soften, and the focus was only on each other.

Look at the blurred background all around, here is the 2007 Oscars red carpet, think about the first time I hung out, it was in November 2003, he said "I'm going to make a movie", she said "I'm going to be a showrunner", and now..."they can because they think they can"!

The two looked at each other silently, without saying anything, like saying everything, it felt so beautiful, this felt so good.

But...... It's a red carpet interview!

It's not live, but it's going to be broadcast, the camera is on, not only is it not cut, but the director and sound engineer might even add a romantic sound effect to this one, like Unchained-Melody from "The Ghost Is Not Over": Oh, my love, my dear......

"So, I'm thinking, you have four nominations, do you particularly want to get any one?" Lily's smile pulled them back to the red carpet, Ye Wei blinked at this time, looked at her and replied: "Of course it's the best picture, it's the nomination of the producer, yes, it's the whole movie, it's the honor of everyone involved in the production of "Winter's Bones", as well as their families, their partners, like girlfriends." ”

"Okay, okay. Lily told him not to be poor, R-rated winter bones are not the interest of children, children have never seen it, and the audience is more interested in life! She looked at him and asked with a smile, "Why don't you wear a bow tie?" It seems that I have never seen you wear one. ”

"It's funnier and cooler. Ye Wei stroked his neck, "I learned the style from some veteran rock stars, do you think it looks good?"

Lily nodded and said, "It's good." He thanked him, and she asked, "You're very popular with girls, how did you do that?" Surprise! Bastard, look how you answer this gossip question!

Ye Wei shrugged his shoulders slightly, and couldn't say what he wanted to say. Lily burst out laughing, I got you! Ye Weizhi sighed, "It feels great to be here." Lily gestured with her eyes, it can't be like this, please! Ye Wei had an idea and hurriedly said: "I'm not just popular with girls, I'm also popular with boys, and I'm also popular with animals, I'm a good person." ”

"Wow. Lily exclaimed, now was not the time to argue, he had enough interviews, "But, I hope you have a good night." "At this point he should leave, and then she will find the next guest. Ye Wei did the same, but when he walked up to her, he leaned over to her and whispered, "It's up to my girlfriend whether it's beautiful or not." ”

Lily gave him a blank look, and the expulsion was very serious. Before she got angry, Ye Wei walked away quickly.

She smiled, saw who walked by, and immediately called out happily, "Hey, Jack Black, hello, we're Nickelodeon!"

Ye Wei looked back and saw Lily continuing to interview Jack Black, Jennifer and Alicia in the distance were walking the catwalk separately, and he also saw the other nominees of the double bones, Stanley Tucci and his wife, as well as ...... He was suddenly surprised to see a figure, Emmanuelle......

Amy stopped over there to walk the catwalk, she was wearing an apricot-colored wrap tunic evening dress, her left shoulder and upper side of the left crisp breast, the coat knot tied around the right shoulder, two sexy collarbones flattened, delicate earrings in both ears, black and brown hair combed back with her forehead exposed, a pure face with picturesque eyebrows, cheeks and lips were faintly pink, and her smile revealed the warmth and gentleness of a herbivore.

It was the first time he had met her since the breakup last year, and what seemed like yesterday scared him.

Ye Wei immediately turned around and left, originally wanted to go back for a few interviews, but now the wind is blowing!

He didn't care about any media and acquaintances, walked quickly to the end of the red carpet, turned the corner from the huge Oscar statue into the entrance of the Kodak Theater, walked a little more, ran up the two-story stairs, and walked through the entrance into the theater, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Only!" Amy's cry came from behind her.

Ye Wei's heart tightened, how could it be! Aimanniu, will you work lightly?

Well, everyone has long been exes. He turned his head to look and realized that he had misheard, it was the noise around him that distorted the words of the laughing staff lady: "Weige, you have stayed on the red carpet for too short, it's still early, if you can please go back to the event again?"

"Goodbye. He didn't stop waving his hand.

......

"Now live from the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood Heights, Los Angeles, California, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences welcomes you to the 79th Academy Awards. ”

It was 17:30 Los Angeles time, and ABC started broadcasting the ceremony on time. Last year's average North American ratings for the Oscars were 40.8 million, which was average in recent years, barely holding the 40 million mark with the help of the "Little Sunshine Beauty" Corps. At this time, the TV audience also jumped at 40 million, not only at home, but also in various entertainment venues such as hotels and bars, watching charity parties in various places, and watching the big screen on the street in the crowded streets!

The audience watched as the narration followed the narration into the Kodak Theater, and the audience applauded, the red curtain of the stage slowly opened, and the giant screen behind it displayed "The-Nominees", and the camera played the opening short film introducing the finalists.

In the medium and close-up shots, Peter Otto, an old man with white hair and blue eyes, stands in front of the white camera backdrop in a daze, and the voice-over male voice asks quickly: "You were nominated for "Lawrence of Arabia". Otto said, "I did." The voiceover asks, "Then why didn't you win the prize?" and Otto said boredly, "Because someone else won." ”

Cheerful music sounded, Iñárritu, Spielberg, Stephen Freys...... A group of nominees appeared one by one, introducing what they were engaged in and competing for in one or two sentences, and talking about the mood of being nominated. Iñárritu has been nominated for several of the hit Babel: "Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress, Best Editing, Best Score." The image followed Ye Wei's first appearance, and he couldn't remember: "What's there?" I can't remember clearly. Iñárritu said a little proudly: "Maybe it's too much, isn't it?" Ye Wei shrugged his shoulders and said: "I remember that I have three films, and they always have 13 nominations, and I account for 4." ”

Then there was a "comparison", where someone ran for the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, and the voiceover asked Martin Scorsese "You still haven't won the Oscar 8 times", and Martin Sr. said, "No, I lost 7 times, but this is probably the 8th." Otto said, "Eight times." Talking about the taste of failure again, Leonone appeared on the scene and thought, "I've probably been nominated four or five times, like (three). Is it murder or natural death if you die like nothing?"

Awards? It doesn't exist. The nominees were self-deprecating. Speaking about Best Original Screenplay, Pete Morgan said, "I'm here for the Queen. He then smiled in surprise and frowned, and said, "I can't believe it, I'm here for the Queen?" I'm sorry, but it's too untrue for the British to say that. Helen Mirren said in an English voice: "Be modest, polite, and above board." Pete Morgan said solemnly: "Any sexual fantasy about the Queen is tantamount to treason, and this should be made clear." Going to be beheaded!" he made an awkward gesture of being beheaded.

This is followed by Best Art Direction...... The five-minute video ends with applause, and the video focuses on the trophy stand at the back of the stage, on which a golden figure is placed, and the narrator says, "Ladies and gentlemen, these are the Oscar finalists." ”

The camera rises and pushes closer to the packed audience, more than 3,300 guests occupy every area of the three floors, some guests are standing, some of the guests in the front row are laughing and shaking hands with the people around them, and almost everyone in the "Departed" area, "Babel" area, and the girl trilogy area is applauding.

The narrator also says: "The Kodak Theatre was attended by 171 of the world's best movie stars and filmmakers, many of whom have already won numerous awards this year. But tonight will be the biggest award, the event that everyone is looking forward to, and the highest honor, which is the Oscars. Now to the host of the 79th Academy Awards, Ellen DeGenese!"

The camera pans to the palace-like stage, and the audience erupts into a burst of applause and shouts, and Ellen DeJanes walks out of the palace pillar door passage in the middle of the stage, her short blonde hair, dressed in a maroon unisex suit, and a confident smile as she walks to the front steps of the stage.

The camera cuts and the guests laugh happily. And the TV audience is undoubtedly more excited, especially the fans of "The Ellen Show", those housewives.

"Thank you, it's really grand tonight, it's so exciting, you guys just saw the short film made by Oscar-winning director Ello Morris. ”

Alan spoke briskly about the opening show, with a serious demeanor, "Tonight, everyone pays tribute to the finalists, which is different from only paying tribute to the winners in the past. The audience burst into laughter, and she paused and said, "You know tonight is very important to me, I had this dream when I was a little girl, and I always wanted to host the Oscars, so it's a dream come true for me." The guests immediately burst into applause and a few screams.

Unlike last year's host Jon Stewart's spiciness, Allen's hosting style has always been gentle and friendly, and after making some jokes about herself, she said that this year is the most international edition, with candidates from Mexico, Spain, Japan, Sweden (at this time, the camera is on Aliciica, who applauded), and some Americans who are taking seats everywhere.

Amid the laughter, Alan laughed again and said, "Now must be your favorite moment, because the jury is still out on who will win the award." Unless you're British, your chances of winning a prize are higher. There was another burst of laughter, and the camera snapped at the British finalists, stopping at Kate Winslet, who may be running for the fifth time, and Helen Mirren, another Englishman who had already taken the actress trophy for the third time.

Alan went back and forth on the stage, continuing to mock everyone, causing bursts of laughter from the audience. The camera captures the smiling faces of the superstar guests in the front row from time to time, they will be named and joked by Allen at any time, and they will also be on camera at any time, and the actresses are smiling and smiling, all paying attention to the image.

"I can't imagine how you're feeling right now, you're sitting there anxious and worrying about whether you're going to win or what you're going to say because all your friends are watching. But really, don't worry about that, because I can tell you what to worry about, there are a billion people watching this show right now, and that's what to worry about. ”

There was another burst of laughter in the theater, and Allen laughed too, and continued, "And I'm also under pressure to get you to shorten the time to speak. To be honest, it's not that we don't have time for you to speak, but we don't have time to listen to boring speeches. Bursting into laughter, she added: "So if you don't have anything interesting to say, I'd suggest you make something up, like, 'I remember I lived in Browns when I was a kid,' even if you're not from there, people love to hear you say you're from Browns." ”

The guest burst into laughter, and she didn't stop: "They said I couldn't be an actor because I couldn't read." You know. Tell people that you live in a car, and they just love to listen. Listen, don't be so nervous. Because we may not win, you don't have to worry, it won't work. ”

There was laughter and applause in the theater.

......

Liz is also in the Kodak Theater, but in the back row of the ground floor, she has not walked the red carpet before, and she has taken the fast lane.

Her ticket is not a "fill-in-the-box" ticket that she has to pay for - because of the restricted seating arrangement, there are hundreds of scattered empty seats every year. The invoices and seats of the Oscars are all knowledge, and the members of the academy are far more than the number of seats in the theater, who is it given to? What position is given? It is usually given first to those who have good works this year, then to the stars, and then to the old bones with heads and faces, like Gia's grandfather Coppola, who has no movies every year. By the way, Gia got a fill-in ticket and came.

The front row of the main hall is for individual nominees, especially for acting awards, and the back row is for technical nominees, crew members, and relatives, who are considered to be part of the TLB crew. And celebrities from all walks of life and observer students went to the upper level. There are two iron rules for seating, one is not to put two nominees with the same award together, and the other is to try to line up the winning favorites on the side of the aisle so that they can get the award on stage. also has to take into account everyone's grievances and hatreds, like the academy will not rank Amy Rosen next to Ye Wei, nor will it be next to her, because she and Ye Wei have had an affair, and she saw Rosen just now.

Emma is also here, Nina is also here, they are all second-tier celebrities, and the six future girl leaders are all here, which is really lively.

"In any case, you should all be happy to be here. Allen on stage continued. The distance was too far, and Liz was laughing happily when she watched the big screen.

Alan looked down the stage and said, "Look at Jennifer Lawrence sitting there." The camera then gave a close-up of the person to Jennifer, who was sitting in the middle of the first few rows, and she was expressionless, and only smiled lightly when she noticed that she was on camera. Jennifer was the first person to be named by the host tonight, which shows her popularity, although she is not sitting in a popular position.

The theater erupted in jubilation, and Liz clapped and cheered, "Hoohoo!"

"Jennifer Lawrence, that's crazy, isn't it?" Allen asked, looking puzzled, "How old are you? 14? 16? 15? The audience burst into laughter, and Jennifer's smile was even bigger, and Alan said, "She's just a child, but she seems to be more mentally mature than me." The laughter could not be stopped, and Alan added: "There are a lot of teenagers this year. ”

The camera zoomed out at the right time, and saw Jennifer on the right Lily, Ye Wei sitting on the side of the aisle, and her mother and Alicia on the left.

Liz looked at their smiling faces from the screen and looked at their backs in front of them, it really felt like Susie was looking at the world from heaven.

"That's Ye Wei. With Allen's words, the camera focused on Ye Wei, who raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and she said again: "I like you, boy." You're like an alarm clock, and whenever I see you, I know my life is almost over. There was another roar of laughter, Ye Wei was still calm, and Lily next to him was applauding.

"The young finalists are full of joy, hope, not worried about competition at all, just happy to be here. Allen continued, "The first time you get nominated, then after a few nominations, you really want to win. I mean... Am I right? Peter Otto?"

The camera cuts off, laughter roars, and 74-year-old Peter Otto himself shakes his shoulders with laughter, which is already funny, and there is a contrast just now. Alan was also happy: "Peter O'Toole is nominated for the eighth time tonight, is it the eighth time?" Xiang Jian has been nominated for Best Actor 8 times in 44 years, and he has been empty-handed so far, which is really a legend.

The audience burst into applause, the camera was given to Otto, and then to Lenando, and the juniors were still far behind.

The old man had fun, and Allen successively named and joked several guests, including the female supporting favorite Jennifer Hudson, former US Vice President Al Gore, who attended the ceremony for hosting the best documentary feature film "An Inconvenient Truth", as well as Lenando and others.

After Alan walked off the stage with a hand-cranked drum and a group of white-robed singers and dancers to congratulate everyone, the atmosphere was already very warm, Allen returned to the stage and said with a smile: "Oh my God, I think we can start, the first pair of presenters tonight are Oscar winner Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig who plays 007!"

Amidst applause, the two guests walked out of the cylindrical door passage and walked to the front of the stage.
