I’m in Hollywood

The fireflies used to rush to the Olympics this year have two, "Visit Vampire" and "Pulp Fiction." ¥f,

However, after the Oscar nomination, Eric discovered that although the "Vampire of the Night" industry evaluation is good, the box office also made the firefly make a big profit, but the vampire movie and the comedy film are not like the Oscar judges. Although Firefly did a lot of work for the film's Oscar PR, it ended up with only insignificant nominations such as the best makeup and the best sound.

In the end, the fireflies attacked Oscar's heavy responsibility to fall into the "pulptic novel".

Although Eric joked with Kapoor that he was likely to fall asleep at the awards ceremony, the Oscars were often too long to be ridiculed. However, except for those who are not well-educated, most people find it difficult to feel a sense of drowsiness in this tense and hot atmosphere at the Oscars.

I have to say that it is quite interesting to look at this award ceremony, which is quite different from the original time and space.

The original "Schindler's List" was one year ahead of schedule. This year's popular nominated films are in addition to "Pulp Fiction", as well as "Because of the Father's Name", "Piano Love", "Life Intersection" and so on. And Eric has some surprises that two Chinese films have appeared in the film that was selected for the best foreign language film this year. One is called "The Wedding Banquet" and the other is called "Farewell My Concubine", but the best foreign language film award is still It fell to Penelope's "Beauty Age".

In addition, Eric also noticed Jane Campan, who won the best director nomination for "Piano Love". The female director from Australia stopped at a nomination for no suspense. Although he didn't know it in detail, Eric also knows that there are very few women in the history of Oscar who have been nominated for the best directors. They haven't been there for more than a decade. This will be a big change for Oscar's best director next year. If Catherine wins the best director nomination for women as "Rescue Ryan", the Oscar judges are likely to consider neglecting female directors for two consecutive years. The risk of being brought to the forefront.

After winning nothing in the best men's, best men's and best women's matches, Quentin also lost to Robert Altman of "The Cross of Life" in the competition of the best director without any suspense. Robert Altman, who filmed the satiric film, has won three best director nominations before. Although the original time and space lost to Steven Spielberg, but this time, no one really can guide the old director of the Oscar.

When Robert Altman and the award-winning guest Clint Eastwood left the stage, Eric, who stood in the background, had already felt it. This year's Oscar, "Pulp Fiction" may still only get one of the best original script awards, but Eric does not care about this, as long as "Pulp Fiction" gets enough box office.

Upon hearing the reporter yelling his name, Eric walked towards the stage with an envelope containing the best film results. Just appeared, and there was a very loud applause under the stage.

Eric smiled and walked over to the microphone. He thought that the applause would fall. I didn't expect the applause from the audience not only to stop showing signs, but to become more and more enthusiastic.

Oscar is actually a party where everyone joins each other. As the host of a prize ceremony ridicules, a group of millionaires award each other a game. Eric’s reputation and power in Hollywood have increased in recent years, and it’s not too surprising to get such a treatment.

The applause rang for half a minute, and Eric pressed his hand and swept his eyes. Laughing and said: "In fact, when I received this invitation from the guests, I personally was very scared."

Although there is nothing so obvious in this sentence, the audience still sounded a smirk.

“I have always felt that such an important award is at least 60 years old and is more suitable for the awarding guests, but the director immediately retorted me that you have already finished all the things that others can do until they are eighty years old, and they can already go to the awards. So I came up."

Accompanied by the laughter from the audience, Eric said in a serious way: "But don't expect anything, even if this award is given by me. Xiaojin people will definitely not be pure gold."

The audience knows that this is Eric's teasing of his personal wealth, so there is a burst of laughter, Eric clears his throat and said: "Of course. The best film represents an honor, is the college six thousand The recognition of the value of a film by a number of professional judges is definitely not a substitute for money. So let's take a look at some of the best nominated films this year."

Eric said to the screen and walked to the side.

The clips of the five nominated films of "Pulp Fiction", "The Cross of Life", "Piano Love", "Because of the Father" and "Farewell to Love" appear on the screen.

Eric looked at the footage of these films. I am not sure who will get the best film this year.

Compared with the best directors and best actors in the judges' scale, the best film is unanimously selected by more than 6,000 judges of the various jury associations, which means that the best film belongs to the most The best director and best male and female protagonists can be reflected to a certain extent. If a film receives more important awards, then the film can basically say that the best film is locked.

But this year is a thoroughly Oscar-small year. No film is a big winner. The best director gave Robert Altman of "The Cross of Life", the best actor gave Daniel Day Lewis to "The Name of the Father", and the best actress belongs to Holly of "Piano Love". Hunter, the best original script was taken away by "Pulp Fiction". The best male and female supporting roles are also different films. The largest number of jury associations have made completely different choices. It seems that the best film results will be Look at the private public relations efforts.

Although I don't know who to spend, Eric is sure that after this year's Oscar, media commentary is definitely more lively than ever.

When the introduction of the five films was over, Eric went to the microphone again, took a look at the envelope in his hand, glanced at the table, and quickly found a place where the crew was, and then the eyes could not help but squat. Because he saw two acquaintances around the crew, Elizabeth in a white dress and a big fat man named Weinstein.

Because Eric briefly hesitated. Everyone in the Los Angeles Music Hall looked at Eric's gaze, and some people whispered softly.

Eric quickly regained his mind and said: "Then, the 1993 Oscar best film will belong. "Piano Love", Jane Chapman."

As the applause sounded, a short-haired woman of forty years old stood up from the "Piano Love" crew, hugged one by one, and then walked toward the stage with excitement.

"Congratulations. Ms. Chapman," Eric Xiaojin handed the other person, politely hugged it, and then let it go.

While Jane Chapman delivered the testimonials, Eric, who stood next to him, once again looked down the stage. In this era, the best film in Oscar has not yet come to the stage with the whole crew. The crew members of the crew are still sitting in the same place.

Noting Eric's gaze, Harvey Weinstein politely nodded at him, and Elizabeth smugly raised his chin, not concealing his fingers and drawing a 'c' letter in front of him. . Then the five fingers clenched the fist and then suddenly spread out, making a gesture of shattering.

Even if Elizabeth did not make these tips, Eric could guess the intention of this Nizi. Jane Campan’s female identity is both an advantage and a disadvantage. If there is no Robert Ottoman who has accumulated a few Oscar nominations, with Weinstein’s public opinion and awards, plus News Corp. Media support may indeed make Jane Campan the first female director to receive the Oscar for best director award.

But because of Robert Altman, Weinstein knew that he had the hope of being the best director, so he switched to the best public relations film and successfully launched a female producer. This is obviously paving the way for "Brave Heart" next year.

In this way, if Catherine wins the best director nomination for "Saving Private Ryan" next year, the college will have enough reason to distinguish it if they don't get this award, since they awarded this important award to the best one this year. female. When the media arrives, there is no reason to blame them for gender discrimination.

Since I have decided to support Elizabeth and also promote Fox's acquisition of Miramax, Eric will certainly not be angry with the girl. Anyway, regardless of "Brave Heart" and "Save the Great Ryan", who will become the big winner next year. In Eric's view, it is only the difference between the right and left hands, or Eric will not let the production of "Forrest Gump" be pushed back one year. What's more, compared to "Saving Private Ryan", "Brave Heart" obviously needs more bonuses to recover more profits.

Eric had planned to go back to the ceremony immediately after attending the awards ceremony, but thought of "Forrest Gump", just as Tom Hanks attended the awards ceremony, Eric planned to talk to Hanks first. With everyone leaving the Los Angeles Music Center and going to the Hilton Hotel's "Vanity Fair" Oscar dinner, although Eric has changed the history of Hollywood, the Vanity Fair party is still on time, but Eric has not been in the past few years. Can participate.

In the lively party hall, Eric and Hanks came to a quiet corner and briefed Hanks on the story of Forrest Gump.

Hanks focused on listening to Eric's analysis of the plot and nodded: "Eric, since it is your favorite script, of course, there is no problem, I will let my agent put those invitations tomorrow. Push it off. Well, this story sounds very interesting, maybe I should read the original one."

Eric quickly shook his head: "The original story is a somewhat absurd satirical novel. I don't recommend reading it before you see the script. Because I intend to adapt it into a motivational film that shows the history of the United States from the 1950s to the 1970s. A-Gump represents a simple and sincere attitude to life. If you read the original in advance, it may have a bad influence on entering the role. People's first impression bias is very serious."

"Well, when will the film start to be produced, let me know," Hanks nodded with a smile, and agreed to it. As for the things like pay, of course, he didn't have to negotiate with Eric himself. It is now usually handed over to the producers and Hanks agents to negotiate.

The two chatted with each other and separated them. Eric greeted some acquaintances and dealt with a few guests who had been in front of them. When they saw Penelope and Kate, they planned to secretly bring two women. Leaving the party early, but just about to go to the two women, a group of people led by Elizabeth's "Piano Love" crew came over.

"Eric, this is Ms. Jane Campan, and Ms. Jane Chapman..."

Eric smiled and shook hands with each other. Everyone knew the relationship between Elizabeth and Eric. When they greeted each other with a familiar face, they dispersed.

After the crowd spread out, Elizabeth asked: "Why don't you really care about me, don't you really get angry?"

Eric smiled and said: "Look at you being surrounded by a group of people, I am afraid to get together to block your light."

Elizabeth snorted softly, but realized that Eric was not angry, she also let go of her heart and asked, "What have you been talking about with Tom Hanks?"

"A movie, I plan to let him be the actor, say hello in advance," Eric did not have the intention to postpone the production of "Forrest Gump" to the girl, simply said, noticed Penelope And Kate looked at himself and made a gesture to the two women, indicating that they were waiting outside for themselves.

Elizabeth followed Eric's gaze and noticed the two women's backs. The tone was sour and sorrowful: "The two seem to be the heroines of "The Charlie", why don't you put the three girls together? ?"

Eric smiled: "It's too busy, so I only got two, and the rest is coming."

"You'll mess around," Elizabeth said, gently kicking Eric's leg to show her dissatisfaction. She remembered something and said, "When you say you want to help Julia prepare the script, when will it be taken out?"

"At least wait until the end of New York is over," Eric put his goblet in the tray of the waiter and leaned over to lean over Elizabeth's face, whispering. "If I had nothing else, I would go first. I haven't had a good sleep for a whole week."

Elizabeth shrinks her neck, but she really has a very important thing to talk to Eric, but the distance between them is so close, she also noticed the dark circles on Eric’s face, thinking this The matter was not in a hurry, and nodded and let Eric leave the party. (To be continued.)
