China Entertainment 1997

This year is the 53rd Grammy Awards. From the perspective of nominations, the biggest favorite is Eminem, who has received 10 nominations and is considered to be the most valuable award for [Best Record] and [Best Single]. Qu] is the perfect choice.

But it is a pity that although the Grammys are also very fond of Eminem and have allowed him to win 13 Grammys, they seem to be limited to the rap category.

The 10 nominations that stood out among the crowd only won "Best Rap Artist" and "Best Rap Album".

These two awards are not bad in gold content, but compared to the four major categories nominated, they are still a little weaker. Although Eminem maintained his demeanor, his face could not be said to be happy.

This is also Eminem's "passing by" the four major categories more than once, and it was still a big blow.

The band that is most proud of this year's Grammys is the band "Goddess of Antebellum", which won 5 out of 6 nominations, including two of the four categories in the category [Best Single] and [Best Production], making it the biggest winner this year.

Cao Xuan presented two awards, one of which was [Best Single].

As mentioned before, his Golden Finger is not very familiar with the European and American entertainment circles. He only remembers a few classic scenes of the Grammys clearly, but he only knows a little about the rest.

He vaguely remembered that Eminem didn't seem to win many awards this year, but he didn't know exactly what awards he won. Considering the song results and external evaluations, Cao Xuan really thought that Eminem and Rihanna's collaboration on "Love The Way You Lie" would be successful. Get a prize.

You know, this song has been at the top of the Billboard singles chart for 7 weeks, and has sold more than 10 million digital singles online. Its performance is extremely outstanding and it is regarded as the biggest hit.

When they got together on the red carpet before the awards ceremony, Cao Xuan joked with Eminem and asked him to treat him, but when he opened the envelope, he found someone else.

Some media that supported Eminem used the screenshot of Cao Xuan's frown when he opened the envelope as a newspaper cover to defend Eminem.

"The result that shocked Cao, what are the judges of the Recording Academy doing?" 》

In addition to Eminem being ignored, another person who was shocked was [Best Newcomer].

Jazz singer Esperanza Spaulding defeated the popular Justin Bieber and staged a dark horse counterattack, becoming the first jazz singer in Grammy history to win the "Best New Artist".

It is worth mentioning that the award guest for the [Best Newcomer] is still Cao Xuan.

However, because of his last experience, Cao Xuan remained calm without any change in his expression even though he saw the results that surprised him.

However, the media still interpreted a lot of things from it. The New York Times talked about Cao Xuan's reaction.

"...Cao, the award presenter, was not surprised that Justin Bieber lost the election. Obviously, this oriental magician who has won 16 Grammys has seen through the faces of these judges. This is a silent criticism of the Recording Academy of America. protest……"

Cao Xuan's same reaction, in the media that supports the Grammy, became the result of approving the award, and his eyes revealed satisfaction and relief.

Cao Xuan himself didn't know. His acting skills have reached such a level that people can see not only silent protest, but also satisfaction and relief.

Anyway, there are two mouths, no matter what Cao Xuan does, these media have their say.

But no matter what, this year's Grammy Awards are destined to be dominated by niche music, jazz and country. Except for Lady Gaga, who performed steadily among the major hits, the others were unsatisfactory.

Cao Xuan took his apprentice Taylor and a few friends to a restaurant and then went to a nightclub.

There are many people in the European and American entertainment circles who like to play in nightclubs, and the same is true in China, but Cao Xuan is an exception. It may be that he experienced too many bad things as a singer in his early years. He is particularly resistant to this kind of environment and is not used to it. At most, he goes to KTV to get together. , I almost never go to nightclubs or bars.

So he made a casual excuse and said goodbye to everyone, went back to the hotel to rest, and planned to fly back to New York from Los Angeles to film the movie the next day.

Cao Xuan feels depressed every time he comes to the United States. The two cities he spends most time in are too far apart. The difference is nearly 4,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to a round trip from the capital to the magic city and still be rich. Thanks to the relatively developed aviation industry in the United States, otherwise it would be really difficult. inconvenient.

Back at the hotel, Cao Xuan checked the time, it happened to be noon in the capital, and made a video call to go home.

Two minutes later, Empress Donggong appeared in the camera wearing a yoga suit and sweating profusely.

"Practice at noon, don't hurt your body."

"I can't care about that much anymore."

Hu Jing gritted her teeth: "I must lose 100 pounds within two months."

Cao Xuan couldn't help but sigh. The Empress of the East Palace was stimulated and she blamed him. She felt that Hu Jing had been holding back at home for several months, so she encouraged her to go out for some air.

Hu Jing went to visit her best friend Mei Ting, but was blocked by paparazzi and took many road photos.

The outside world, which had been suspicious of Hu Jing's disappearance for several months, and there were widespread speculations, now saw the empress of the East Palace comparing her previous obviously wealthy photos, and collectively fell into a climax.

Definitely pregnant!

It must be Cao Xuan’s!

The two are definitely married!

Hu Jing didn't care about these speculations, but she couldn't bear people saying she was fat, so she exercised like crazy when she came back. If she didn't have to breastfeed her child, she would even consider going on a diet.

Seeing the madness of the Empress of the East Palace, Cao Xuan felt that Zeng Li had to stop him when he turned around. It was okay to lose weight, but it had to be done step by step.

"By the way, someone invited you to the wedding."

Hu Jing wiped the sweat from her temples, suddenly remembered something, and brought out a few invitations.

Cao Xuan was not surprised. He knew many people, including friends in the entertainment industry, business partners, and even acquaintances in other fields. He would definitely inform them of any weddings or funerals.

However, in most cases, Cao Xuan was unavailable or inconvenient to show up, and his habitual courtesy was not received.

Cao Xuan's gifts over the years alone must have cost at least seven figures.

The most important thing is that Cao Xuan doesn't take care of anything in his family, he doesn't get married, and he doesn't tell anyone about the birth of a child. The old man is in good health and has no habit of celebrating his birthday.

In other words, it doesn’t matter to Boss Cao. If he had replaced him, he would have cut off all contact with the outside world...

"Whose family does it belong to? I'll ask someone to give you a gift later."

Cao Xuan asked as a habit. After all, gifts are not casual. The amount depends on the distance of the relationship and the status of the person. And some people just arrange their subordinates, some need the East and West Palace to act as agents, and some have to be delivered by Cao Xuan himself. .

"Big S and that Wang Hefei invite you and me to a wedding in Sanya."

Cao Xuan was stunned. He had no friendship with these two people at all. The woman had only met her when she participated in the show in the early years. It seemed that the man had never met in person. How could he invite him to attend the wedding?

Hu Jing asked specifically and explained: "The man's mother's name is Zhang Lan, the founder of South Beauty. In 2008, Jiaoyang and another institution valued South Beauty at 2 billion. They jointly invested 200 million in South Beauty and won a total of 10 % of the shares.”

Cao Xuan was impressed by the mention of the Empress of the East Palace.

South Beauty has developed well in recent years and is a popular restaurant chain in China. Its sales in 2007 reached 1 billion, so it is favored by Jiaoyang.

Just in time for South Beauty to expand its stores and prepare to go public, Jiaoyang invested in the company.

At first, it was planned to directly acquire the 10% of the shares. Later, it secured a hand and brought another institution into the game to jointly inject capital.

Cao Xuan did not stop it at that time because South Beauty had signed a gambling agreement, and if it failed to be successfully listed, the 10% shares would be recovered at a high price.

In other words, if Jiaoyang invests this 100 million and successfully goes public, it will definitely make a profit. If it cannot be listed, South Beauty will have to buy it back at a high price. South Beauty has no money, and Jiaoyang and the two companies can sell it to a third party without losing money.

At that time, Cao Xuan did not delve into the situation of South Beauty. There were losses and profits in investing in this thing, and it was impossible for him to personally check every project.

As long as there is no problem with the contract being reviewed internally by the company and another of its own legal and financial teams, Cao Xuan will basically approve it.

If you make a profit, everyone gets a bonus.

If there is a loss, Jiaoyang will have a certain amount of losses every year. If it exceeds this amount, someone will naturally be responsible.

Cao Xuan, the big boss, actually only focuses on a few key projects and the overall profit rate every year. It is no exaggeration to say that for such a 100 million-level project, he will only look at the reports and data at the end of the year, and then ask based on the fluctuations.

It was only now that Cao Xuan realized who this South Beauty was.

He remembered that this Zhang Lan seemed to have failed in his bet and was kicked out.

Most importantly, the other side of the bet doesn't seem to be losing money.

That's enough. Cao Xuan was silent for a moment: "It's enough to just wrap a red envelope as a sign of intention, and people won't come through."

There was no friendship between them, so Cao Xuan naturally wouldn't go to support him, but the invitation was sent, and Boss Cao was a very particular person, so naturally he couldn't pretend he didn't see it.

After all, no favors are involved, and you will be more confident when you want to settle the bill later. Speaking of which, why go to a wedding that is destined to lead to divorce...

Cao Xuan chatted with Hu Jing, took another look at his precious son, and hung up the video. It was still early to watch, so he turned on the TV to watch the replay of Manchester United's games from the previous two days.

Manchester United 2:1 Manchester City

What a touching picture, wait more than ten years, Manchester United

In less than half the game, you can’t help but smash the TV and take a few more antihypertensive pills...

………

The next day, Cao Xuan returned to New York for "Avengers" to film the scene of leading a team to sneak attack on SHIELD's flying aircraft carrier.

According to the plot of the movie, Loki and Hawkeye cooperated to seize the materials to open the portal.

Later, Loki was deliberately captured by the Avengers, using the Psychic Scepter. Influences the Avengers, especially the Hulk.

Although the Avengers understood part of Loki's plan, due to incomplete information, discord, and the influence of the Psychic Scepter, they were conflicted, disgusted, and even hostile to each other.

At this juncture, according to the positioning on the scepter, Hawkeye, the ace who is most familiar with S.H.I.E.L.D., led a rebel agent to raid the former president's estate... No, it was the flying aircraft carrier, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s main base.

Destroy the enemy and rescue Loki.

Make Asgard great again!

The finished design of this scene is very cool. Hawkeye leads the team, an exploding arrow disables an engine of the flying aircraft carrier, and then implants a virus with one arrow, causing a large number of functions of the flying aircraft carrier to be paralyzed.

Afterwards, he looked at Iron Man who was going to repair the aircraft carrier, and he drew his bow and shot arrows again.

Transparent [Qi] emerged from his body, quickly flowing into his arms, then flowing into the bow and arrow through both arms, and finally gathered on the arrow.

When the arrow tip was filled with cold light, Hawkeye released the bow string, and the arrow launched a series of terrifying sonic booms and shot towards Iron Man at high speed.

As early as when Hawkeye aimed at Iron Man, Iron Man in the suit saw Jarvis's crazy prompt.

"Alert alert, there is a strong energy accumulation at twelve o'clock."

Before the arrow could be shot, Iron Man spurted flames from his hands and feet and quickly fell down to escape. However, what he didn't expect was that the arrow turned slightly and rushed towards him at the same speed.

"monster!"

The speed of the arrow was too fast, and Iron Man could only hurriedly pop up a small shield on the right wall to block himself. The result was that the shield was penetrated like iron piercing tofu.

Fortunately, the shield offset part of the power, but it also almost completely destroyed his upper left arm and shoulder armor.

Hawkeye wanted to draw his bow and arrow again. Iron Man, who was almost scared to death, could not let him get his way again. Two laser cannons hit him and threw two more small missiles.

Hawkeye dodged the laser cannon and shot two arrows in the air, hitting the missiles and detonating them halfway.

Iron Man was concerned about the aircraft carrier and did not dare to enlarge his moves. Basically, it would not hurt Hawkeye. Hawkeye needed to accumulate energy when he enlarged his moves. Iron Man did not give this chance, so the two of them simply shot at each other.

The aircraft carrier's engine was damaged and the situation became worse. Hawkeye wasted time and Iron Man was worried.

At the critical moment, Captain America arrived and signaled Iron Man to repair the aircraft carrier, but he stopped Hawkeye.

"Be careful of his arrows."

Iron Man said nothing and left the battlefield. Hawkeye shot two arrows at Captain America without saying a word.

The American team was a little embarrassed by the arrows, but they still raised their shields to block them. The two extremely powerful arrows were neutralized by the shield's anti-shock properties and did not penetrate the shield as expected.

"Adamantium? Vibranium?!"

Hawkeye looked at his shield and frowned. Captain America took the opportunity to attack and flew a spinning shield towards Hawkeye.

Hawkeye lowered his waist and turned over to avoid the shield. The recurve bow in his hand turned into a stick and was stuffed into the sword case. Then he pulled out a Han sword, held a sword flower, and stabbed Captain America.

Different from the Iron Man shooting and bombardment just now, the two were fighting in close combat this time.

Hawkeye's sword is powerful, and his moves go straight to the vital point. Cap uses his shield to block, uses defense as offense, and counterattacks from time to time.

The movie sets both of them as top fighting masters. Captain America has super serum, and Hawkeye has [Qi] body protection. The key is to use a killing move, which is very powerful.

Just like Iron Man has worries in his heart, Captain America is also worried about Iron Man's situation, and his mind is always elsewhere.

Under such circumstances, even if Captain America had 50-50 attributes, he would still be beaten by Hawkeye.

At the critical moment, Thor defeated the crazy Hulk, hurried over, and successfully reunited with Captain America.

However, Captain America was afraid that the instigated SHIELD agents would start the engine wheels and turn Iron Man, who was repairing the aircraft carrier, into flesh, so he went to guard the switch.

Hawkeye fights Thor three times.

According to the setting, Hawkeye is not afraid of Captain America and Iron Man.

Although the former's shield is more powerful than his bow and arrow, it's still 50% effective in close combat.

The latter has full firepower, and Hawkeye can only run away, but if he can't take a chance, Iron Man is also the easiest to be killed by him. Both of them have their own advantages and disadvantages. Hawkeye is more threatening at short range, and Iron Man is more dangerous at long range. Xia is stronger.

Robert Downey Jr. has studied kiting tactics and feels that Iron Man can kill Hawkeye.

However, Cao Xuan felt that unless Iron Man's missiles cleared the ground, ordinary missiles should be able to block them. Moreover, his [Qi] also had protective capabilities and long-distance attack capabilities, so the effect of kiting tactics was not obvious.

After all, we are comrades-in-arms. The civil war has not yet reached the stage, and we have not discussed how to fight in detail.

Later, Iron Man may come up with an anti-Hawkeye armor, and Hawkeye will figure out how to use [Qi] to make arrows shoot faster and have stronger penetration.

But I have to say that Thor is still very restrained against Hawkeye.

First of all, this guy can fly, and Hawkeye hates this kind of enemy. Secondly, the hammer is strong and can be used to hit Hawkeye's [Qi Arrow]. Thirdly, the God of Thunder also has long-distance attacks. A lightning strike cannot break the [Qi Shield]. Can also interfere.

However, at this stage, Hawkeye still makes Thor suffer a bit.

This guy is too arrogant. He feels invincible when he holds a hammer. Hawkeye wields a sword with [Qi], and its lethality is still terrifying.

Thor fought with brute strength and was pinned down and beaten by Captain America. Hawkeye's fighting skills were no less impressive than his counterpart. If it weren't for the halo of the protagonist, Hawkeye would have almost wiped his neck with a sword.

The God of Thunder was caught off guard and was hammered by Hawkeye, but he quickly realized that although his skills were not as good as Hawkeye's, he relied on his amazing power and used force to overcome cleverness, so he was able to get by.

At this time, after the battle between the three heroes, Hawkeye's physical strength declined and his body's [Qi] was also depleted.

Gradually falling into a disadvantage in the battle of Thor, Black Widow arrived and signaled to take over.

"Can you do it?"

"No problem, he won't hurt me."

Black Widow looked at Hawkeye tenderly and spoke firmly. Thor hesitated for a moment, but was anxious to find his brother Loki and chose to leave.

"Clint, I'm Natasha."

Black Widow tried to wake up Hawkeye, but Hawkeye glanced at her, held a sword in his hand, and struck at Black Widow.

However, compared to the ruthlessness of the three superheroes in the previous battle, Hawkeye clearly retained his strength when fighting Black Widow. There were even obvious opportunities to kill her many times, but he gave up or paused. The original look of Furui Muha also appeared. struggle.

Obviously, just like he didn't shoot Fury before, Hawkeye has a certain bottom line when it comes to people close to him.

Especially the Black Widow who is most important to her heart, she cannot be killed no matter what.

Black Widow was also keenly aware of the changes in Hawkeye. Originally, Hawkeye's strength had seriously declined after the war, but he refused to kill him. Two villains fought in his mind, and then cut off his arm.

So Black Widow seized the opportunity and successfully knocked Hawkeye unconscious while he struggled for consciousness and deliberately released the water, and released his mind control afterwards.

It can also be seen from the above scenes how heavy Hawkeye's scene is. Except for the Hulk, other Avengers have played it all.

It sounds lively, but actually filming is extremely troublesome.

The Iron Man scenes were basically shot by Cao Xuan himself from the air, which was actually quite difficult.

The slowest and most torturous part was the fight against the two masters of fighting, Captain America and Black Widow. Cao Xuan had to help the action director design the moves, and then accompany them with a little bit of tricks.

Moreover, Black Widow also likes to use Jiu Jitsu, often performing naked chokes and grapplings. Her waist, hips and legs are circling around Cao Xuan's body. Durant even cried with envy when he saw it...

However, after this scene is filmed and the final battle is completed, Cao Xuan will be able to finish filming in "Avengers".

Perhaps because Cao Xuan's scenes are relatively concentrated, the shooting speed is quite fast. It is expected to be completed in early April and go home.

Cao Xuan will also end filming with Marvel for the time being. If there is no "Hawkeye 2" plan, when Hawkeye appears again in Marvel, it will probably be "Avengers 2" a few years later.
