King of Hollywood Chapter 186: Best Director
"Very touching message, dear." After Gwyneth returned to her seat, Adrian whispered holding her hand, "Your father will be proud of you in heaven."
"Thank you, Ed, I love you." The girl who was calm but still had tears in her eyes looked at him with gratitude.
"Yes, I love you too." Adrian smiled slightly and leaned in to kiss her on the cheek.
Gwyneth opened her eyes a bit unbelievably. This was a public event, and it was the scene of the Oscars! Blanchett on the other side had a slightly tasteful lip line and stretched his foot to kick on his calf. Adrian doesn't care, this is just a reward for Gwyneth. In her speech just now, in the ears of others, she is commemorating her father, and in the ears of Adrian, she is indeed saying goodbye to her father.
Besides, his boss, the lens will not be transferred to him at this time, plus the best actor is being awarded, and such kissing is also within the normal range.
"Okay, the most important moment is coming, let's focus on the stage." Adrian said, and patted on the thighs of Gwyneth and Blanchett.
Next is naturally the best director. As the finale award with the best movie, like the best male and female protagonists, it will make many people sad and happy every year. However, Adrian is very concerned not because he has a nomination. Although he received the nomination, he did not work **** public relations. He also expected that he would not get it. The film school's degree of conservatism cannot be seen too high or too low, and it is neither in his plan nor in his interest to get the best director right now.
However, if you don’t take it yourself, someone can take it. Public relations resources are also spent on it. Not only that, but also launched a lot of connections and relationships. Despite this, it is also an unknown whether it can be obtained. This is also the most uncertain Adrian gambling on the Oscars. After all, this is also a history.
"My God. I never expected that history will be born from me!" Robert Zemidis, who was the award-winning guest, exclaimed with a big mouth. He froze for a few seconds before announcing loudly. : "This is an unprecedented moment, "Lost in Tokyo", Sofia Coppola!"
Unlike the imagination, the audience was silent, no matter who it was, including Sophia himself, stared at the stage with a stunned look. I don't seem to know who Sophia? Coppola is. But in the next second, all kinds of amazing moments broke out, and the audience seemed to have dripped the frying pan. And still so young!
Sophia opened her eyes wide and couldn’t believe it, then looked around blankly, as if she wanted to find someone to tell herself. This is her dreaming. Several other candidates, except Adrian, showed undisguised shock and disappointment. The Film Academy would rather give the best director to a woman than give them. This is too much.
Martin Scorsese was the hardest hit. He sat there stiffly, his smile froze on his face, and when Zemigis said, “I didn’t expect history to be born from me,” he got up. Preparation, but did not expect that this will eventually be the result. after all. Before that, he was full of confidence, and there was no one that gave him enough advantages like this one.
Sophia is a woman, and she is young, you can rule out first; then Adrian, the best director who relies on unrealistic movies, which has not been there before. Although the miracle director is good at creating miracles, don’t forget "Lord of the Rings" has another one next year; as for Robert Marshall and Stephen Dadeley. Their qualifications are too shallow, the work can be counted with one finger, and neither "Chicago" and "Every Moment" have reached the height of "American Beauty". It is not easy to reproduce the miracle of Sam Mendes .
Looking at Scorsese himself, he and Francis Coppola, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg are collectively known as the four major directors of Hollywood in the 1980s. Take a little gold man. Faced with this situation, he was naturally full of confidence, but he never expected that the most unlikely person became a possibility, or the daughter of the director who was the same as himself, which made him accept what he expected!
The Adrian sitting in the seat snorted, and it turned out. It seems that old Coppola spent more time on his daughter than he expected. With Adrian alone, it is impossible to push Sofia to the throne of the best director. After all, she is a woman. It is not easy to let the relatively conservative film school break through the shackles, so Adrian started the idea at the old Coppola from the beginning. Body.
Of course, he did not come forward directly, but asked the following people to lobby Old Coppola. However, after all, the old man started making movies in the 1960s. Why can’t he see who is behind the orders, although he doesn’t like Adrian very much—probably the older generation of Hollywood, an actor or director who has a daughter in the entertainment industry, to Adrian There is no favor.
But if you can get the media’s public relations support, Sofia is not without a fight. Prior to this, old Coppola was hesitant to face her daughter’s request. It’s not easy for a female director to come forward. It is more difficult. Jane Campion, who directed "The Piano" in 1993, is currently recognized as the closest female director to this honor, but unfortunately she encountered Spielberg from "Schindler's List."
But with the support of strong characters, and the connections he has accumulated, it is not impossible to create miracles. He did not like the Adrian that tempted his daughter, but he had to admit that Sofia could have today's achievements, stand up from the shadow of failure, and appear in another way in people's dazzle. Adrian played a big role . So, when there were more lobbyists, he finally made up his mind.
"...I really didn't expect to be able to go to the place again tonight, and it's a historic moment, oh God, my speech has been finished before." The excited Sofia said incoherently, She cried a few times, and the surprise was so big that she could hardly bear it.
"I...I...I..." She "I" failed to say the whole thing several times. Fortunately, the following applauded her support intimately.
"...I think I will...not thank you one by one anymore," Sophia adjusted after all, "In addition to awarding this award to my academy, in addition to the people who collaborate, I want... the most There are two people I want to thank, my father. Without him, there is no present... Then Adrian, thank you for your guidance and suggestions... This is my happiest night, I will always remember."
Fortunately, she did not say "I want to thank the two men who are most important to me in my life" or "I will always remember everything you did for me", which makes Adrian much looser After a breath, although there was still a lot of discussion, at least it didn't have to be a headache.
If you want to speak, he deserves Sophia’s gratitude, knowing that she can get the best director despite many factors. For example, Adrian and the old Coppola United manually used various resources and contacts for her public relations-although the media’s public relations goals are mainly focused on Gwennis, it is much easier than the previous Nicole or Monica, so it is divided Give her some questions.
Then there is a little bit of luck-Adrian has learned from its own sources that the award for best director has caused a lot of controversy within the college, and the college is also working hard to rejuvenate. Want to keep up with the trend, so with their consistent urine, I believe that the final votes must be very close.
But the most important point is that Adrian has broken the Oscar’s youngest best director nomination record and the youngest best director winner record before this! If there is no Adrian. Then John Singleton, who was nominated for best director at the age of 24, will be the youngest nominee, and Norman Taolog, who won the Oscar for best director at the age of 32, is the youngest.
Now Sofia and Norman Taolog at the time are even a few days younger. If there is no Adrian, no matter how the school changes, it will not let a woman break this record. That's right. This is discrimination, there is no trace but there is a real existence, even if you want to complain.
So, if it were not for Adrian, the record of the best director winner was mentioned to a point where it was basically impossible for anyone to surpass, and at the same time, it was the record holder nominated by the best director, no matter how much effort was spent for Sofia PR. impossible things.
This year’s Oscars are over, and the first best female director is surprising enough. What's more, there are still many topics, compared to the "Chicago" to get the best movie such things have to go in the back row.
However, although the award ceremony is over, the party has just begun. Adrian has basically not missed the award ceremony, and naturally will not be absent from the Vanity Fair party. Moreover, the party is not an award ceremony. People who have not participated in the award ceremony can also participate. Of course, people who have participated in the award ceremony may not necessarily participate in the party. For example, Scorsese does not. This night is too sad for him.
Laomouzi did not participate. Although Adrian invited him, he did not get an award with full of hope, and he was not used to the American party culture, so he refused.
"I am a little tired and want to go back to rest." After the award ceremony, he said to the Adrian who invited him.
But this does not mean that he conceded, and soon regained his spirit: "I am currently contemplating a new martial arts production, the first draft has been completed, some of the ideas have also been embodied, if Mr. Kewell is interested, , Might as well come to China to take a look, we are very welcome for your advice."
New martial arts production? Adrian raised his eyebrows slightly. If there is no accident, it should be the little girl who will never die. However, it is faintly remembered that although this film has been depreciated more than praise in China, it still seems to have got a box office that is not as good as "Hero" in North America. After all, Lao Mouzi's rendering of the screen and the use of color and lens Above, it's pretty good.
"Okay, I also have a plan to go to East Asia..." Adrian nodded. He does have this plan. K is currently operating well, almost breaking 100 million users.
Although websites of the same type also appear quickly, websites like k are not difficult to make. But Adrian didn't care about it. He went to see it, and it was okay, but much like e in the previous life and k, people can apply for an account freely, and apply as much as they want.
There is no threat. The biggest feature of k is that it can ensure that the person on the opposite side of the network communicates with the user is a live person, not who... the vest.
In short. There will be no such thing as, "Landlord, you are too naive. Do you think that there are so many people replying to your posts on this forum? Actually, I answered it all by myself, otherwise I will send you the same message with another ID." Case. Want to compete with k for real users? Taking the lead and cultivating loyal users, as well as the support of large media groups, how can it be so easy.
So Adrian thinks that it can be promoted by changing to another vest in China, of course. Still cooperate with Huayi, if they want, and directly call Renren.com. In addition to this, he has other things. Sciscos is too pitiful tonight. Give him some compensation, by the way. Controlling the rhythm in your own hands cannot affect your big plans.
But he immediately thought of one thing: "Yes, I heard that China seems not to be safe recently."
Lao Mouzi was flustered, and it took about a few minutes to react, and then categorically rejected: "There are some special cases. But they are all normal."
Adrian originally wanted to say something, according to his friend’s news, but it’s still a matter of thinking. You don’t necessarily appreciate others when you say it, so forget it, but. I'm afraid the trip will be postponed until the second half of the year.
The party is as lively as ever. Every time celebrities, big and small, embellish it with extraordinary dazzling. Of course, the most attention is of course the best freshly released director. This is Oscar’s first female director, and still so young, each Those who witnessed this moment in person will have a glorious future.
"I really don't know what to say to you, Ed. You are really..." After dealing with many people, Sofia sighed when facing Adrian alone.
"What is it?" Adrian raised an eyebrow.
"You know what I'm going to say, bastard, genius, playboy..." Sophia gestured, a complex look flashed in her eyes, and then shook her head again: "I really want to punch Nikolay, Thinking about his previous eyes and the appearance of the hippy smiley face, I swear, if it weren't for him to slip fast, just say one more word, I will definitely give him a good look."
"Okay, Sophie, okay," Adrian grabbed her hand, then patted gently on the back of her hand, "I know what you are thinking, don’t worry, just go for what you want Do it."
Sophia stopped. She purposely kept small soft long hair and wore a chic dress with thin shoulders and dark green with wavy patterns, which made her have an alternative tough style and taste.
"I'm scared." she whispered.
"Why," Adrian smiled, "Do I look like a monster that eats people?"
"If it is, just fine." Sofia sighed, "I'm afraid of you, Ed, if you don't plan to let anyone go, that person don't want to struggle out, you always have a way to deal with women, let them ...Willingly..."
She smiled bitterly and looked at him calmly.
"If I said to you, stay and stay with me," Adrian reached out and stroked her face, "What answer would you give me?"
"I don't know, Ed, I think many women also don't know." She answered honestly.
"So you see," Adrian laughed, "Go do what you want."
Sofia looked at him for a long time and suddenly smiled, then stood up and sat on his thigh, stretched his hands around his neck, and kissed his mouth. The kiss was not warm, but the breath was long, and it was separated after a long time in a warm feeling.
"I know, I'm not the type you particularly like, and I also know, which one of you fancy me, but still glad to meet you," Sofia's finger crossed his lips, "Thank you Your gift, Ed, I will never forget you in my life, goodbye."
She said that she got up and left, but she did not take two steps and then returned. She flicked her hair and said in a natural tone: "Oh, if I need to find you to solve physiological problems in the future, don't refuse me." "
"Well... I'll be happy to help you~IndoMTL.com~Adrian smiled and raised his hands. Okay, this is not bad.
Although it is in the corner, the intimacy between Adrian and Sofia is not unseen, but no one will care, just like he then flirts with the miracle girls, which is normal in people’s eyes. . Maybe they will be very envious, but basically there is no jealousy. No matter who they are, they can hold the actress and get the best actress Oscar for five consecutive years. They are fully qualified to get their favor.
However, although Adrian is proud, there are also troubles. After all, there are more than Miracle Girls, Scarlett, Anne, Kirsten, etc., taking turns to chat with him. Although Cate and Sarah are not so active, but Out of fairness, he had to find them in the past. Before that, he had avoided all women appearing in the same public place, but now it seems that perhaps some adjustments should be made.
Beyond today, because of the previous default rules, the passion at each award ceremony is different. The women who have not tried, and the combination of different sizes are different, so Zeta Jones, who won the best supporting actress, and It's a shame that Gwyneth, who won the best actress, couldn't moan under him together.
Not only that, when he flirted with Gwyneth and talked about what happened after the party, Nicole’s voice was inserted: "You should be me tonight." (To be continued...)
