The Academy Awards, also known as the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Awards, are film awards sponsored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, founded in 1929.

This award is the oldest, most authoritative and professional film award in the United States, and the most influential film award in the world.

It's just that since the 90s, the Academy Awards have gradually begun to enter a strange circle, not only wanting ratings and exposure, but also discriminating against commercial films.

But the audience in front of the TV wants to watch not art films, but commercial movies and big-name stars in commercial film crews.

Of course, even after another twenty years, the Academy Awards are still eye-catching, and every year there will be countless male and female stars who want to be one of them, and they will not hesitate to spend unimaginable costs for this

This year is the 67th Academy Awards, and the date and place of the event have been announced, which will be held on March 27 at the Holy Auditorium in Los Angeles.

But before that, Ryan needs to pick up someone at the airport, Monica Bellucci, and she needs to be back at least a week in advance to prepare for the Oscars.

In fact, a week is considered less, and many female stars have begun preparations more than half a month ago.

On the second-hand Bentley, Ryan looked at Monica Bellucci next to him with a tired face and said, "You need to take a good rest." ”

Monica Bellucci closed her eyes and narrowed for a moment, "I want to take a break too, but you know, I'm going to have a very important audition tomorrow." ”

"If the audition is successful, it will be busy for a long time, and it will be difficult to have a break. ”

The audition for the "Independence Day" project has been delayed for a long time, and the remaining three important roles in the film have long been decided.

Only the role of Monica Bellucci's audition is pending.

Twentieth Century Fox has repeatedly revealed that it can let Monica Bellucci play the role without even an audition, provided that the investment percentage in the next "Chainsaw" film is increased.

To this? Naturally, Ryan wouldn't agree.

So it's been delayed until now.

"Do you need me to come with you!" Ryan asked casually.

Monica Bellucci opens her eyes? Glancing at him, "If you can?" The best. ”

"That's it. "Ryan took half a day? There is nothing difficult.

Next, Ryan didn't drive back to the apartment or the restaurant? Instead, I turned onto Rodeo Drive and stopped in front of a jewelry store.

Tiffany & Co. is one of the most famous jewelry brands in the world? Luxury at the same time? The price is also free.

Monica Bellucci got out of the car, saw Tiffany's sign, hesitated slightly, and finally chose to remain silent.

Ryan walked in with Monica Bellucci in his arms? Facing a man and a woman who are famous in Hollywood? The shopping guide came forward to greet him very politely.

"Mr. Ryan, welcome!"

Apparently this is not the first time he has come.

"Bring me the jewelry I ordered last time. ”

The shopping guide glanced at Monica Bellucci enviously, guided the two into the VIP area, handed two cups of hand-ground coffee, and said Wait? Turn around and walk inside.

After a while, he walked out with a purple box in his hand? Put it in front of the two of them.

"Open it and take a look. Ryan said as he looked at Monica Bellucci.

Monica Bellucci is a model-turned-trainer, what do you know about the fashion industry? Far from being comparable to Ryan, naturally clear about what Tiffany means? Hesitated a little? Gently open the box? Reveal a dazzling array of jewelry.

Inside the box, there was not one piece of jewelry, but two pieces, a necklace and a pair of earrings.

The necklace is composed of hundreds of broken diamonds, lifelike rose shape, in the middle is a red gemstone, the size of more than a dozen carats, and the earrings are also set with broken diamonds, but the ruby is a little smaller, but there are also five or six carats, very beautiful.

This is a collection of jewels designed with a very delicate and luxurious design, which is as dazzling as a flame.

Seeing the very precious jewelry in front of her, Monica Bellucci was a little moved and a little speechless at the same time.

The Tiffany brand is known for its diamonds, and the main theme of this jewelry set is rubies.

"How much!" she asked, looking up at the shopping guide.

The shopping guide looked at Monica Bellucci with some hesitation, the beautiful woman in front of her, who seemed to be a model, should be very clear about the price of jewelry, and her question was a little difficult to answer

In the end, the shopping guide cautiously said: "This is a limited edition that has just been launched this year, so the price is slightly expensive, about $1.2 million." ”

$1.2 million!

Monica Bellucci pointed to the necklaces and earrings in the box and said: "The Tiffany brand is famous for diamonds, and the jewelry in front of me is mainly rubies. ”

Without waiting for her to finish, Ryan stopped her from continuing, and chose to take out the necklace in the box, put it on Monica Bellucci's jade-white neck, and looked at it carefully for a while, feeling very satisfied.

"This necklace suits you perfectly, it's very charming. With that, he put the earrings on again for Monica Bellucci.

A red gemstone necklace hangs in front of cleavage and is paired with a pair of red earrings to bring out Monica Bellucci's sensuality and femininity.

The only pity is that today Monica Bellucci is wearing a casual outfit that doesn't quite match this set of jewelry.

Monica Bellucci touched the necklace around her neck and said somewhat helplessly: "It's too expensive, and Tiffany's jewelry brand should choose the main diamond, not ruby." ”

"Okay, next time, I'll choose diamonds instead of rubies. Ryan gave an innocent look on his face.

How did he know that the Tiffany brand is famous for diamonds, and it looks good anyway, and it is not to buy it for investment and wait for appreciation, but to make beauty smiles.

Besides, the dress has been ordered according to the color of the jewelry, and it only needs to be slightly modified according to Monica Bellucci's body shape and opinions, and it can't be changed along with the dress.

Monica Bellucci corrected Ryan's words and said, "I mean it's too valuable. ”

"It's ok. Ryan smiled and said, "Just in time for the Oscar dinner held by Vanity Fair." ”

As for the jewelry to attend the Oscars and the red carpet, it is really valuable.

It's just that it's not bought, it's rented.

In fact, most of the female stars competing on the Oscar red carpet will choose to rent a few pieces of precious jewelry, and only a few first-line actresses' jewelry is provided by endorsement brands.

Of course, there are also female celebrities who spend a lot of money and choose to wear the jewelry they or their husbands bought.

Leaving Tiffany, the two went on to a private clothing store where the dress was made to order it to see if it would fit and if there was anything that needed to be altered.

Custom-made handmade dresses are also expensive, and not one set, but two dresses, one for the Oscars and one for the dinner.

But any female star who has a little more money will not choose to rent a dress, and will generally order it privately.

The reason is very simple, I am afraid of colliding with people and embarrassing situations.

Therefore, a female star walking the red carpet is far from being as simple as imagined, and it means a huge expense, even some second- and third-tier Hollywood female stars feel painful to pay.

Let's put it this way, the cost of a trip to Los Angeles some time ago was almost all spent.

Ryan's dress is much simpler, two sets of handmade suits, leather shoes, and a passable watch.

Next, the two walked around Rodeo Avenue, going in and out of luxury stores, but this time they didn't do much shopping, just bought some cheap trinkets and had dinner by the way.

Meanwhile, the two return to their apartment in North Hollywood, where a man-woman war begins, and the scene is particularly hot.
