King of Hollywood

v3 Chapter 186: Best director

"Very touching speech, dear." Adrian held her hand softly after Gwennis returned to her seat. "Your father will be proud of you in heaven."

"Thank you, Ed, I love you." The girl who calmed down but still had tears in her eyes looked at him with gratitude.

"Yes, I love you too." Adrian smiled slightly and rushed to kiss her on the cheek.

Gwennis opened her eyes with disbelief. This was a public place, and it was also the scene of the Oscars! Blanchett on the other side squeezed his lips slightly, stretched out his feet and kicked him on the calf. Adrian didn't care. This was just a reward for Gwennis. The speech she just gave was in the ears of others in honor of her father. In Adrian's ears, she was indeed saying goodbye to her father. .

Besides, his boss, the camera will not turn to him at this time, plus the best actor is being awarded, and this kiss is also within the normal range.

"Well, the most important moment is coming. Let's focus on the stage." Adrian said, and patted Gwennis and Blanchett's thigh.

Next is naturally the best director. As the finale award with the best film, as the best male and female protagonist will make many people sad and happy every year. However, the Adrian Association is very concerned not because he has a nomination. Although he was nominated, he did not work **** public relations. He also expected that he would not get it. The degree of conservatism at the School of Film cannot be viewed too high or too low, and it is neither in his interest nor in his interest to get the best director now.

However, if you do n’t take it yourself, someone can take it, and the public relations resources are also spent on it. Not only that, but also launched a lot of contacts and relationships. Despite this, it is unknown whether it can be obtained. This is also the most uncertain gambling of Adrian on the Oscars. After all, this is also a history.

"My God. I never thought that history would be born of me!" Robert Zemiggis, the award-winning guest, exclaimed, exclaiming, he stunned for a few seconds before proclaiming aloud: "This It's an unprecedented moment, Lost in Tokyo, Sophia Coppola! "

Unlike in the imagination, the audience was silent, no matter who it was, including Sophia himself, staring at the stage. As if I don't know who Sophia Coppola was. But all kinds of surprises erupted in the next second. The audience seemed to be dripping into the oil pan and crackled. This is the first best female director in Oscar history! And still so young!

Sophia opened her eyes and covered her mouth 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 post-candidates, except Adrian, showed undisguised shock and disappointment. The Film Academy would rather give the best director to a woman rather than give them. This is too much.

Martin Scorsese was the hardest hit. He sat there stiffly, his smile frozen on his face, and when Zemigis said "I didn't expect history to be born from me", he was ready to get up. I didn't expect it to happen in the end. after all. Prior to this, he was very confident, and no one had given him enough advantages like this one.

Sophia is a woman, and she is young, so it can be ruled out first; then Adrian, who won the best director by an unrealistic movie, has never before before. Although the director of miracles is good at creating miracles, do n’t forget " The Lord of the Rings will have 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" nor "Every Moment" has 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 collectively named the four major Hollywood directors in the 1980s. There are countless outstanding works, and it should have been a little gold. People. In the face of this situation, he is naturally full of confidence, but he never expected, but the most unlikely person became possible, or the daughter of the director who was as famous as himself, which made him accept the material!

Adrian, who was sitting in his seat, hissed a sigh of relief, and it turned out that it seemed that Old Coppola had spent more time on his daughter than he expected. Adrian alone cannot defeat Sophia on the throne of the best director. After all, she is a woman. It is not easy to make a relatively conservative film school break through. Old Coppola.

Of course, he did not come forward directly, but let the people below persuade the old Coppola. But after all, the old man started making movies in the 1960s. Why can't he see who is behind the scenes, although he doesn't like Adrian much? Probably an older Hollywood actor with a daughter in the entertainment industry. There is no good opinion of Adrian.

But if she can get the media's public support, Sophia will not be without a fight. Prior to this, Old Coppola was hesitant to face her daughter's request. It was not easy for a female director to come out and it was even harder to get the best director Harder. Jan Campion, who directed "Piano Lessons" in 1993, is currently recognized as the closest female director to this honor, but unfortunately she encountered Spielberg who came from the "Schindler's List".

But with the support of powerful people and the connections he has accumulated, it is not impossible to create miracles. He didn't like Adrian who seduced his daughter, but he also had to admit that Sofia can have today's achievements, stand up from the shadow of failure, and appear dazzlingly to people in another way. 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 come to the place again tonight, and it is still a historic moment, oh God, my speech has been finished before." The excited Sofia said incoherently, several times They all brought a crying cry, such a surprise was so big that she could barely bear it.

"I ... I ... I ..." She "I" failed to say the complete word several times, but fortunately, she applauded her to support her.

"... I think I'll ... no more thank you one by one," Sofia adjusted after all, "besides awarding this award to my college, except for the people I work with, I want to ... most want to thank There are two of them, my father. Without him there would be no ... then Adrian, thank you for your guidance and suggestions ... This is the happiest night I will ever remember. "

Fortunately, she didn't say anything like "I want to thank the two most important men in my life" or "I will always remember everything you did for me", which made Adrian somewhat loose. Tone, although still causing a lot of discussion, but at least not so much headache.

To speak, he deserves Sophia's gratitude, knowing that she can get the best director despite various factors. For example, Adrian and Old Coppola United used various resources and connections to publicize her manually. Although the media's public relations goals are mainly focused on Gwennis, it is much easier than Nicole or Monica before. So giving her something is not a problem.

Then there was a little bit of luck-Adrian had learned from his own channel that the award for best director had caused a lot of controversy within the college, and the college was working hard to rejuvenate. I want to keep up with the trend, so with their consistent urine, I believe that the final votes will be very close.

But the most important point is that Adrian had already broken the record of Oscar's youngest best director before, and the record of the youngest best director winner! Without Adrian. John Singleton, who was nominated for best director at the age of 24, will be the youngest nominee, and Norman Talog, who won the Oscar's best director at 32, will be the youngest.

Now that Sophia and Norman Taulog were an age, and even a few days younger, if there was no Adrian, the film school would not let a woman break this record. That's right. This is discrimination. It is invisible but real, even if you want to complain.

Therefore, if it is not that Adrian mentioned the record of the best director winner to a point where it is basically impossible for anyone to surpass, and at the same time is the record holder nominated by the best director, no matter how much effort is spent on Sofia PR, it is not Possible thing.

That's it for this year's Oscars, and it's just amazing to be the first best female director. What's more, there are still many topics. Compared to Chicago, the best movie has to be back row.

However, although the awards ceremony is over, the party has just begun. Adrian has basically not missed the awards ceremony, and naturally he will not be absent from the Vanity Fair party. Moreover, the party is not an awards ceremony, and people who have not attended the awards ceremony can also participate. Of course, people who have participated in the awards ceremony may not attend the party. For example, Scorsese did not. This night was too sad for him.

The old conspiracy did not participate, although Adrian invited him, but with a heart of hope, he did not get an award, and he was not used to the American party culture, so he declined.

"I'm a bit tired and want to go back to rest," said Adrian, who had invited him after the awards ceremony.

But this does not mean that he gave up and quickly regained his spirit: "I am currently conceiving a new martial arts production. The first draft has been completed and some of the ideas have been embodied. If Mr. Cowell is interested, May wish to come to China and we welcome your suggestions. "

New martial arts production? Adrian raised an eyebrow slightly. If nothing else, it should be the little girl who will never die. However, it is faintly remembered that although this film has been degraded more than cricket in China, it still seems to have won a box office that is not as good as "Hero" in North America. After all, the old tricks used the rendering of the screen and the use of colors and lenses. The above is quite outstanding.

"Well, I happen to have a plan to go to East Asia ..." Adrian nodded, he did have this plan, and k is currently operating well, and is about to break through 100 million users.

Although the same type of website is coming soon, websites like k are not difficult to make. But Adrian didn't take it seriously, he went to see it, and it was ok, but it is very similar to e in the previous life and k, people can freely apply for an account, and apply as much as they want.

There is no threat. The biggest feature of k is that the person on the other side of the network can ensure that the person communicating with the user is a living person, not whose ... vest.

in short. It wo n’t appear, "Lord, you are so naive. Do you think there are so many people replying to your posts on this forum? In fact, it ’s all from me, or I will send you the same ID for another ID" Case. And to really grab users than k? Taking the lead and cultivating loyal users, and the support of large media groups, how can it be so easy.

So Adrian wondered if he could start another promotion in China, of course. Still cooperate with Huayi, if they want, and directly call Renren.com. In addition, he had other things. Scorsese was too pathetic than now. Give him some compensation, by the way. Keeping the rhythm in your own hands cannot affect your own plans.

But then he thought of one thing: "By the way, I heard that China seems less secure recently."

The old conspirator faltered, and took about a few minutes to respond, and then categorically rejected: "There are some special cases. But they are all normal."

Adrian originally wanted to say something, according to the news of his friend, but think about it, forget it, you say that others do not necessarily appreciate, so let's forget it, though. I'm afraid the trip will be postponed to the second half of the year.

The party is as lively as ever, celebrities of all sizes dazzle it every time. Of course, the most attention is of course the best new director. This is the first female director of Oscar, and she is still so young. For a moment, people will be honored in the future.

"I don't know what to say to you, Ed. You are such a ..." After dealing with many people, Sophia sighed when she faced Adrian alone.

"What is it?" Adrian raised an eyebrow.

"You know what I'm going to say, bastard, genius, **** ..." Sophia gestured, her eyes flashed with a complex look, and then she shook her head: "I really want to punch Nicholas and think of him Before that look, and the appearance of that hippie smile, I swear, if it wasn't for him to slip fast, just say one more thing, I will definitely give him a good look. "

"Okay, Sophie, okay," Adrian grabbed her hand and patted it gently on the back of her hand. "I know what you're thinking, don't worry, just do whatever you want. Right. "

Sofia stopped, and she kept her long, soft hair and a chic dress with thin shoulders in dark green and wavy patterns, which made her have a different toughness and taste.

"I'm scared," she whispered.

"Why," Adrian smiled. "Do I look like a cannibal?"

"If so," Sophia sighed. "I'm afraid of you, Ed. If you don't want to let go, that person doesn't want to struggle. You always have a way to deal with women and let them ... Willingly ... "

She smiled bitterly and looked at him calmly.

"If I tell you, stay with me," Adrian reached out and stroked her face. "What would you answer to me?"

"I don't know, Ed. I don't think many women know the same." She answered honestly.

"So you see," Adrian laughed. "Do what you want."

Sophia 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 enthusiastic, but it was long-lasting, and after a long lingering in a warm feeling of love, they separated.

"I know, I'm not the type you particularly like, and I also know what you fancy me, but I'm still glad to meet you," Sophia's finger crossed his lips, "Thank you for the gift , Ed, I will never forget you in my life, goodbye. "

She said she got up and left, but turned back again without taking two steps. She shook her hair and said in a natural tone: "Well, if I need to find you a physical problem in the future, don't reject me."

"Well ... happy to help you ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Adrian raises his hands with a smile. Okay, that's not bad.

Although in the corner, the intimacy between Adrian and Sofia was not unseen, but no one would care, just as he continued to flirt with the miracle girls separately, which was already normal in people's eyes. Maybe they will be very envious, but basically there is no jealousy. No matter who they are, they can win the actress for the best actress in Oscar for five consecutive years, and are fully qualified to get their favor.

However, although Adrian is proud, he also has troubles. After all, there are more than miracle girls here, Scarlett, Annie, Kirsten, etc., take turns to chat with him. Although Kate and Sarah are not so active, they are out In fairness, he had to go find them. Before that, he had avoided all women in the same public place, but now it seems that some adjustments should be made.

Later than today, because of the previous default rules, the passion at each awards ceremony is different for women who have n’t tried it, and the combination of the stats is different, so get the best supporting actress Zeta Jones, and get the best It's a shame that the heroine Gwenis couldn't groan under him together.

Not only that, when he flirted with Gwyneth and talked about what happened after the party, Nicole's voice intervened: "Your object should be me tonight." (To be continued ...)
