It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 763 Golden Globe Awards! 5 nominations and 3 wins! Leonardo: "I want to marry you!"

Los Angeles, Annapurna Pictures.

In the president's office, Megan Ellison, who had short hair and a masculine face, was looking at the news about "The Revenant" on the Internet with disdain on her face.

How can a movie directed by a Chinese director be qualified to win an award in Hollywood?
After a moment, she pressed the intercom and said to her assistant, "Send Braun and Lauder over."

Soon, two middle-aged men walked into her office one after another.

Looking at the two "generals" standing in front of her, Megan Ellison asked directly: "How are you doing with the things I arranged for you?"

Hearing this, Braun was the first to respond: "I have already contacted several Oscar judges and, as you instructed, sent them precious gifts. They have also promised to give their final votes to The Theory of Everything."

A smile immediately appeared on Megan Ellison's face. She was very satisfied with the answer.

The reason why he was able to get in touch with Universal Pictures was mainly because of his father Oracle.

As long as she can help "The Theory of Everything" win the award this time, she will be able to reach a deeper cooperation with Universal Pictures.

By then, Annapurna Pictures will surely shine in Hollywood!

But at this moment, Braun added, "President, there is another very troublesome thing. As far as I know, The Revenant is also very popular for winning the award. This time against Volton Pictures, our chances of winning are not very high."

Megan Ellison's face suddenly darkened.

"Ha." She sneered, "The essence of public relations is actually a test of financial strength. Wall Street Films does have some strength, but can they invest huge amounts of money in public relations like I do?"

She did things in a very similar way to her father: "Next, I want you to raise the level of the gifts you send out to a higher level to suppress Walt Disney Studios."

"Yes!" Brown nodded slightly, turned around and left the office.

At this time, Megan Ellison turned to look at Lauder and asked, "Have you found what I asked you to find?"

"President," Lauder responded, "I got the news that Warner Bros. is preparing to sell some of its film and television novel copyrights due to years of losses. The relevant auction should be held after the Golden Globe Awards ceremony."

"Okay!" Megan couldn't hide the joy on her face.

She had lobbied hard for a long time before she was able to get a partial investment share in the Sino-foreign co-production "The Great Wall" from Universal Pictures.

Next, she plans to prepare a large commercial film project on her own, hoping to make it a hit and officially enter the field of commercial films.

And buying the copyright of the script is surprisingly the first step towards success!
In any case, it is always quicker to acquire the copyrights for mature novels and scripts than to create them from scratch yourself.

She secretly vowed that she must succeed in getting a good project during her next trip to Warner.

Then, she looked at Lauder and instructed, “You have been in Hollywood for many years, you are much more experienced than me, and you have enough connections.

Next, you have to help me keep an eye on Wall Street. If you get news that they like a certain project or script, you must get it before them."

"Okay." Lord nodded heavily. "Volton Pictures' film and television projects have never failed. Their vision is indeed different from ordinary people."

This is almost a recognized fact in Hollywood, as can be seen from the overall revenue of Walt Disney Studios last year.

An independent production company actually has revenue far exceeding that of the Big Six Hollywood studios, with huge box office sales, sales of peripheral products, and sales of copyrights. This is simply amazing!
……

There was obviously some restlessness in Hollywood that night, as many people were looking forward to tomorrow's Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

On the other side of the world, the country is also bustling with activity at this moment.

"The fantasy adventure action film "Ghost Blowing the Light: Yunnan Worm Valley", jointly produced by Feiyue Films, China Film Group, Shanghai Film Group and Wanda, has obtained the extension key qualification, and the release time will be postponed to 2 pm on February 15."

"The period suspense war drama "The Pretender", exclusively produced by Feiyue Films and starring Hu Ge, Jin Dong, Liu Mintao, Wang Kai, Song Yi and others, officially started filming today at the Chedun Film and Television Base in Shanghai."

"Jointly produced by Star Shine, China Film Group, Enlight Media, and Feiyue Films, directed by Zhou Xingchi, and starring Deng Chao, Zhao Liying, Zhang Yuqi, and others, the magical comedy love movie "The Mermaid", with an investment of up to 4 million yuan, was officially announced to be completed today!"

"The first round of satellite broadcast of the TV series Red Sorghum, exclusively produced by Feiyue Films, has ended, and its ratings ranked first in the same period."

"The TV series Nirvana in Fire, produced exclusively by Feiyue Films, will officially take over from Red Sorghum and will premiere on Capital TV and Dragon TV tomorrow night. Please stay tuned."

Although Chen Fei is not in China, there are constant reports of movies and TV series invested in or exclusively produced by Feiyue Films, which makes people in the industry envious.

In particular, the news of the delayed release key of "Yunnan Worm Valley" has made the movies released in January wailing!
This blockbuster was successfully postponed, but the unlucky ones are definitely those shoddy products.

However, no one could find any reason to resist.

A domestically produced film that has already grossed over 20 billion yuan, ranked No. 1 during the Lunar New Year holiday, and has received rave reviews... Such a film is naturally the best work for extending the key!

As for "The Crossing (Part 10)" and "One Step Away", which had previously threatened to break the billion box office, they have already died down.

……

On the night when the Golden Globe Awards are about to be presented, the world's attention is focused on Hollywood.

In the morning, as the sun rose, major media outlets began to report in detail on the event.

They capture every detail, from the crew's preparations to the appearances of actors and stars, from the layout of the Golden Globe Awards venue to the style of celebrities on the red carpet, all of which become the focus of the camera.

At the same time, the audience is also keen to discuss and predict the winners of various awards.

Among them, Chen Fei, Leonardo DiCaprio, and the crew of "The Revenant" attracted much attention for their outstanding performance and reputation.

Their names topped the major prediction lists, making them strong contenders for this year's Ballon d'Or.

As the ceremony approaches, movie fans and audiences around the world are waiting with bated breath, hoping to witness whether their favorite movies can achieve excellent results as predicted at this grand awards ceremony, and also looking forward to the final winners of other awards.

This day is destined to be exciting.

When Chen Fei, Leonardo DiCaprio, and other main creative members of The Revenant set off for the awards ceremony, major portal websites in China had already posted bright red headlines:
"There are less than 72 hours left until the 3nd Golden Globe Awards for Film and Television. Let's wait and see..."

In the car, Leo was chatting with other crew members, and there was no sign of nervousness on his face.

It’s just the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor, it’s not like he hasn’t won it before.

What he is most looking forward to now is the upcoming Oscars, which is the real key award. As for the Golden Globe Award, it doesn’t matter to him whether there is one or not.

People are always most obsessed with what they don't have, and what they already have is irrelevant.

……

Outside the Dolby Theatre, there were already signs of a huge crowd of people.

Media, filmmakers and enthusiastic fans from all over the world crowded the red carpet, hoping to catch a glimpse of the stars.

One after another, luxury cars carrying filmmakers, actors, stars, etc. drove slowly on the road leading to the theater.

As the destination approached, the car speed slowed down.

Chen Fei gazed at the grand occasion outside through the car window. He couldn't help but feel emotional as he watched the actresses in gorgeous dresses calmly get out of the car and walk gracefully towards the door of the Dolby Theatre.

For him, today was just an ordinary event. After all, he had won so many Golden Globe Awards that he hardly participated in any in recent years.

But for other stars and actors, tonight's event is very important, especially walking on the red carpet, where every footprint carries dreams, hard work and sweat!

The traffic moved slowly, stopping and starting, as if building up suspense and anticipation for this important moment.

After a series of waits, the crew of "The Revenant" finally slowly arrived at the famous red carpet outside the Dolby Theater.

The sky was getting dark, but the bright lights of Hollywood lit up the night sky as if it were daytime.

Countless media and fans crowded on both sides of the red carpet, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the crew. Every eye was focused on the dozens of meters long red carpet, expecting the stars to appear.

The red carpet host introduced the upcoming guests in fluent English. When the name of the "The Revenant" crew was heard, the atmosphere on the scene was instantly ignited!

"Let us welcome the three-time Oscar-winning Chinese director Chen Fei, the world's top superstar Leonardo Dicaprio, Oscar-winning and Venice Golden Lion winner Matt Damon and Matthew McConaughey..."

As the names echoed throughout the venue, the doors of the Duoliang luxury cars were opened simultaneously under the gaze of the entire audience.

The next second, Chen Fei led Leonardo, Matt Damon, Matthew McConaughey, and several Hollywood A-list actors who had guest-starred in "The Revenant" crew onto the red carpet.

The appearance of this top lineup immediately triggered screams and cheers from the audience.

Everyone walked on the red carpet, facing the camera and the enthusiasm of fans, showing unparalleled charm and confidence!
On this star-studded night, the crew of "The Revenant" undoubtedly became the most eye-catching presence on the red carpet.

At this moment, in front of the autograph wall, Megan Ellison was being interviewed by reporters on the scene along with the crew of "The Theory of Everything".

Originally, the few of them were chatting happily, but when the crew of "The Revenant" stepped onto the red carpet, more than half of the reporters gathered in front of them suddenly disappeared.

Megan Ellison, who loves her reputation, suddenly lost her expression.

Turning her head to look at Fade Chen, Leonardo and the others, she snorted coldly: "Don't be complacent for too long, or you might fall."

However, at this time, the male and female protagonists of "The Theory of Everything", Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones, looked at the red carpet with envy.

Walking in front are the world's top directors, and following behind are all movie emperor-level superstars. This lineup is enough to crush all the crews at tonight's Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

Perhaps only Chen Fei could gather such a terrifying lineup. Other film producers and directors dare not even think about it!

After all... with so many movie stars in the same crew, how much would that cost?

Amid the hustle and bustle of the red carpet ceremony, Charlize Theron, who served as the hostess of the Golden Globe Awards red carpet, walked towards tonight's important guest - Chen Fei with a smile.

"The Revenant is widely acknowledged as a favorite to win an award." Charlize Theron bent down slightly, revealing the bottomless ravines on her chest. She stared at Lin Nan and slowly asked, "Fei, how much do you expect from your five nominations?"

Fade Chen shrugged, as if he was not attracted by her hot body, and joked calmly: "If you say I am looking forward to it, then it is definitely 100%. I want all the awards, but in the end it still depends on the judges' opinions, right?"

He is already a veteran in the interview field, and he easily avoided the small traps deliberately set by Charlize Theron.

After the rest of the people finished their interviews, the group successfully entered the theater. Chen Fei stood at the entrance of the venue and paused for a moment.

Looking around, almost everyone in the venue is familiar!
Actors from all Marvel movie series are here today, including those from the currently filming Geostorm, as well as actors from the Transformers and Pacific Rim series, who all arrived at the scene today.

And since the Golden Globe Awards distinguish between TV series and film awards, he also saw actors from "Game of Thrones" and "Shameless."

"Game of Thrones" is currently in its fifth season. As long as it is online, it will be the most clicked and played series of all American TV series.

"Shameless" is not bad either, and is currently second only to "Game of Thrones", "House of Cards" and "Breaking Bad".

At this time, the staff came over and led everyone to the front row.

"Brother Chen Fei!"

The sudden shout made Chen Fei stunned. He turned his head subconsciously and saw Jing Tian and Wu Jing sitting in the back row, waving at him.

The two of them came here with the crew of "Pacific Rim". Although they are destined not to win any awards, it is impressive enough to be able to show their faces here.

Chen Fei waved at the two of them, without stopping, and continued walking forward.

"Brother Wu Jing, do you think Brother Chen Fei can win the grand prize tonight?"

Jing Tian looked at Wu Jing with anticipation, as if she was the one who was about to win the award, and she was very excited.

"I think it's fine." Wu Jing said confidently, his eyes full of envy.

"That's what I thought too!"

Jing Tian echoed back, his eyes following Chen Fei's back, his admiration evident in his words.

……

At eight o'clock in the evening, which is 11: a.m. local time, the Golden Globe Awards ceremony officially began.

After the cliché opening remarks, it was time for the performance.

Singers and dancers took to the stage to perform and presented wonderful shows.

Leonardo suddenly poked Chen Fei's arm and reminded him in a low voice: "Fei, look at that tomboy over there, she is Megan Ellison."

"Ok?"

Chen Fei looked in the direction of Leonardo's finger, and saw a "woman" with shoulder-length hair and a serious expression sitting upright, staring straight at the stage.

"Hey? Isn't this just a Larry Ellison clone with long hair?"

"Hahaha!"

Leonardo simply couldn't hold back his laughter, causing many people around him to look at him.

After the show, the award ceremony officially begins!
First up are the television awards. As expected, this year's grand prize was once again equally divided among the three American TV series "Game of Thrones," "House of Cards," and "Breaking Bad."

Kevin Spacey finally won the Best Actor in a Drama Series for "House of Cards", "Peacock" Matt Bomer and Maggie Gyllenhaal won the Best Supporting Actor and Best Actress in a Miniseries respectively, and "Game of Thrones" won the Best TV Series in the Drama category...

Next up are the film awards.

"Best Foreign Language Film: Dangal."

Wall Street Films had a good start.

“Best Animated Film: Frozen.”

Walt Disney Studios wins another big award!
……

"Best Screenplay: Armando Poe, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Nicolas Giacobon for Birdman! Congratulations!"

"uh-huh?"

Fade Chen raised his eyebrows but didn't take it too seriously.

It’s just a screenplay award. If I didn’t get it, then I didn’t get it. There are still 4 more nominations to come.

"Best Supporting Actor: J.K. Simmons, Whiplash."

Take 5 out of 2!

Leonardo blinked, the smile on his face suddenly froze a little, and he felt inexplicably nervous.

"Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy: Michael Keaton, Birdman."

"Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy: Amy Adams, Big Eyes."

“Best Actress in a Drama Movie: Julianne Moore, Still Alice.”

These three consecutive awards have nothing to do with "The Revenant".

Next up is the Best Actor in a Drama Film Award.

Many people turned their eyes to Leonardo, because he was right in the middle of the nomination list on the big screen.

"Best Actor in a Drama Movie winner: Leonardo Dicaprio for "The Revenant", congratulations!"

"Oh! My God!"

Leonardo stood up suddenly, his eyes wide.

He really didn't expect that after "The Aviator" and "The Wolf of Wall Street", he would win the third Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in his acting career!
This also means that his chances of winning the next Oscar have increased a lot again.

Leonardo excitedly ran onto the stage, took the trophy, looked towards Fade Chen, and shouted, "Fei! I swear! If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely marry you!"

Offstage, Fade Chen was furious and shouted at the stage, "Leon! Shut up! I'm not interested in men!"

All of a sudden, there was a burst of intense laughter in the meeting hall.

Everyone happily watched Leonardo perform on the stage, but while laughing, they couldn't help but feel a little envious.

Golden Globe Award winner! This is the second most prestigious award in Hollywood after the Oscars!
Soon, Leonardo, who had finished his acceptance speech, returned from the stage.

At this moment, the pressure suddenly came to Chen Fei.

He was nominated for Best Screenplay and Best Director.

If he didn't get the former, and if he misses the latter, he will not win any Golden Globe Award this year.

At this time, Charlize Theron, who had previously served as the red carpet host, suddenly walked out from backstage with a brand new card in her hand.

"Best Director Golden Globe winner: Chen Fei, The Revenant, congratulations!"

On the stage, Charlize Theron, who had just broken up with Sean Penn not long ago, looked at Chen Fei with bright eyes, and the love in her eyes was not concealed at all.

She has already begun preparing to implement the "hundred-man slayer" plan, and Chen Fei, who is hailed by Hollywood as "the sexiest, most talented, and strongest Chinese director", is obviously one of her targets.

Accompanied by warm applause from the audience, Chen Fei stepped onto the podium with confident steps.

After a brief hug with Charlize Theron, he took the Golden Globe.

"Thanks to the jury for their support, and to all the actors in The Revenant for their support..."

After the routine words of thanks, before leaving the stage, he specifically responded to Leonardo's previous "speech".

"I'm making it clear here that I don't like men, so, Leon, you'd better give up the idea of ​​marrying me."

For a moment, there was loud laughter from the audience.

Leonardo held the trophy, faced the camera, and deliberately made a disappointed expression, causing many people around him to hold their stomachs and laugh.

After returning to his seat, the slight tension in Chen Fei's heart suddenly subsided.

I have already won the Golden Globe Award for Best Director. Although there is another big award to come, it doesn’t matter whether I can win it or not. At least I won’t go home empty-handed.

But soon, another surprise came!
George Clooney, who won the Lifetime Achievement Award at this year's Golden Globe Awards, slowly walked onto the stage and raised the small card in his hand: "I announce! The winner of the Best Picture in the Drama category at the 72nd Golden Globe Awards is The Revenant!"

At this moment, the whole audience was in an uproar!

It's fine that he won 5 out of 3 nominations, but he actually won three top awards, including Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Picture. How amazing is that?!

Megan Ellison, who was sitting in the third row, frowned and stared at Fade Chen who stood up to receive the award. She suddenly felt the pressure doubled in her heart.

Although "The Theory of Everything" did not win nothing today, it only won awards such as Best Editing and Best Original Score, which is no match for "The Revenant".

And judging from the audience's voice, the latter is obviously higher than the former.

Leonardo's clown act was so effective that now almost all of America feels sorry for him and thinks he deserves an Oscar.

And now, the Golden Globe Awards has given the most direct response, which means that the Oscars are likely to do the same.

In an instant, she made a decision in her mind:

"We need to strengthen our public relations efforts. The Golden Globe Award was not in my expectations, but I absolutely cannot lose the Oscars!"
