King of Hollywood

Chapter 135 begins.

As a theatre that could almost be described as built specifically for the Oscar Awards Ceremony, the Kodak Theatre has put a lot of effort into hosting guests. - < > - () After entering through the tall square arch, it will take a long walk to reach the front hall, then it will take several steps before entering the screening hall, and the journalist will not be able to come in at this time, so guests can feel comfortable walking and talking.

“Too bad, Dan. Too bad, I thought you could get at least one nomination.” Adrian is standing in front of a man and a woman and a little girl with a loud sigh.

Dennis, dressed in a suit with a tie, looked handsome, and Anniston, who was holding his arm tight, was dressed in a silver sleeveless fishtail evening dress, and the hair plate was very pretty behind his head, and he couldn't tell he was already a mother. The Dennis twins are old enough to be a couple of daughters, otherwise Adrian would definitely be depressed.

Unfortunately, Verona seemed to have gone in, otherwise it would have been very interesting to stay here, knowing that after being caught by him for the time being * * * * *, Verona simply moved into their house and claimed to live with Anniston. And according to Dennis, she was constantly persuading Anniston to elope with her, and she didn't know if it was a brief gesture of love.

Adrian wanted to remind him to watch out for the three of them traveling, but just think about it, Dennis is not an idiot, he would certainly have cautioned against it, and if it was all filmed, he could only say he was unlucky.

And the little girl next to you doesn't have to say anything, except the lovely Dakota? Fanning doesn't have anybody else, the black dress with the white light blue long sleeve chiffon outer cover, and the white velvet socks and leather shoes look very good. Especially if there is no fine hairpin on the blonde hair, the blue eyes are wide open, and whoever sees them will feel sorry for them.

And the other two women. Naomi, who first won the Oscar nomination for an outstanding performance in "I'm Sam"? Watts up. And by her side, tall and long, wearing a big red cross shoulder tuxedo, half the way from Adrian, is the most powerful contender for tonight's best actress, Nicole? Kidman's up.

“It's all right, it's just luck, and lack of qualifications," Dennis shrugged, looking and admiring, “but Naomi. Excellent, no problem getting nominations for the best female partners. ”

“Thank you.” Naomi's eyes curved, looking very happy and excited. It's perfectly normal, and after almost a decade of flirting, she finally made it to the first-line female planet, and she got an Oscar nomination, how could she not be excited?

“Hannah's not bad either. It's a shame she didn't get nominated.” She humbled herself again.

“Never mind, there will be a chance.” Dakota shrugged as wide as Dennis did, and the lovely action prompted everyone to laugh. Only Adrian saw it in her eyes.

Just last year's double nomination of Little Emma and Aunt Julia set the record for the best female partners, and as Dakota, who was praised by many for her inspiration, especially in "I'm Sam," she was impressed, not without vision. This little girl is also very young, and if she does get nominated, she will refresh her young record (note). Just... Adrian frowned slightly but recovered and put it behind his head.

“Well, let's go inside.” He looked around and said so.

Blanchett and Liv are already in, Sophie and Monica are not far behind, and Kate and Sarah's shadows are swinging at the door, even though Lin Chi-Ling, Kirsten, Natalie, Rachel and others are still out there. But just because they're around, it's eye-catching enough. Besides, Julia, Zeta Jones and Gwyneth have not entered the lobby yet, even though they are in front of them, so it would be better if they didn't let go of the chance to give him a good look. * * - < > - *

I know, it's your first Oscar nomination, and you're excited. But don't be so obvious, okay, Nami? ”Adrian, two steps behind, smiled and twisted Naomi.

“It's all because of you, Ed, I wouldn't have done this without you!” That being said. But the tone is delicate, obviously delicate.

“Don't you blame me for putting the job too tight?” Adrian asked with a smile.

Naomi has two films coming out this year. In addition to Chicago, which is already set, David? Finch-directed Chestnut Space. Finch started to come up with a new movie after Fight Club, and he agreed with Adrian that he wanted to strike a balance between business and art, and Fight Club was definitely too biased, some too wicked and antisocial, so this time he was going to make a more commercial movie, like Psychological Games after Seven Sins.

But while there was a longer time lag between his directors, there was nothing to do during that period, such as working as a producer for some films, or producing an MV collection for Madonna, plus Adrian's intentions to train him, so it wasn't until early '01 from David? Cape got the script for Chestnut Space.

He initially wanted to invite Nicole as the lead actress, and he really appreciated her performance in The Island Spirit, but Nicole needed a break to finish the Red Mill, so he declined the invitation, and Adrian recommended Naomi.

The film, he knows, is not very highly regarded in Finch's work, but it's pretty good as a commercial film, and there's plenty of room for it. To show strong expression of maternal love in a thrill, if these qualities can be captured and fully displayed in the movie, even if the movie has an average reputation, there is no shortage of positive reviews for the actor.

Naomi had followed a thrilling route, interpreted unobstructed, and had a rich hierarchy of characters, she could also take the opportunity to transform, which seemed to be tailored for Naomi. So it's settled, David? Finch respects Adrian's opinion, and after the audition, he thinks she's good. Foster, she doesn't lack this type of character.

As for the daughter, naturally or Christine? Stuart's, Adrian was thinking about Dakota. She's a little younger, but she's a great actor, and Christine still doesn't look like a girl if she doesn't have long hair. But considering that Dakota already had "I'm Sam" and played an important role in "The Beautiful Mind," Christine was chosen.

The film started in mid-01, and soon after Naomi didn't take a break, she started preparing for Chicago, and Adrian had told her in advance that next year the King Kong would officially set up a project to be scared, and she would be the lead actress. No wonder Naomi complains about being too tight. Of course, it's not really a complaint.

“Don't be so mean, Ed," Naomi whispered in secret, “I just said that, and you still haven't forgotten. ”

And then she watched his eyes soften, filled with this indescribable love: "As you said, I'm going to make up for all that has gone down in the last decade. ”

He reached out to her at her most helpless hour, and he took care of her to encourage her and help her to stand up. And fully exploited her potential and now gave her a bigger stage, so even if she knew he was horny and knew that he liked chasing or beautiful or all kinds of women of character or character, she was willing to stay with him.

Adrian's eyes also softened, but the next second, Naomi immediately closed her smile and gave him a big white eye.

If I could, I'd really like to come to the bathroom today at the awards ceremony and Naomi's passion, unfortunately, before that I've decided on a candidate. Adrian thought so and slowed down again. Soon it will be parallel to Monica.

“Sophie's having a great time today.” Adrian looked behind him and said such a thing to Monica.

Just behind him, Sophie was walking with a smile on her face and joking with the people around her, and when Adrian looked at the past, she had the audacity to glance at him.

“Of course, this is the first time she has nominated an Oscar best actress.” Monica smiled. Not all dissatisfaction was caused by Adrian walking in with her and talking about Sophie.

“But I'm sure she doesn't know that she might be happy.” She then said in a bit of a fuss that, as Adrian's second woman after the Oscars, she saw certain things clearly.

“Don't worry, it'll happen sooner or later.” Adrian shrugged his shoulders with a smile, not continuing on the subject, but looking at the hall door, which was already close by - slowing down and speaking to her own woman, though not too noticeable, could also create a situation where she could not speak to all women. After all, I've been moving forward here.

Of course, it doesn't matter. I haven't spoken to any of my women since the Oscar Red Carpet, and I'm afraid Rachel and Natalie don't want to talk to him. The former has become accustomed to waiting for his oppression in this position. And the latter, who is probably in the middle of something and conflicting right now, is afraid of being influenced by him in person to make the wrong decision, but... does she really think this will get out of Adrian's hand?

And even if we talked to them, there were a lot of women at home, Charlize, Ivanka, etc.

“Are you sure about this, Monica?” Adrian suddenly asked.

Monica nodded solemnly, although there were some without ends: "Yes, I thought you said that people always had to try something new. I've had enough on the movie, so it's good to challenge myself in other ways, anyway..."

She laughed, tender and slightly cunning, and seemed very touching in that mature style: “... it doesn't matter if someone adopts me or fails. ”

Derian laughed and nodded, “Okay, well, come on, you're gonna make it. ”

Monica wants to create her own fashion brand, and that's what they're saying. As she said, she's already won the best Actress of Oscar, and she's got some commercially and artistically successful works like The Hacker Empire, and she's internationally renowned, and the Italians call her national treasure, and it's enough to have that achievement.

Needless to say, even three or four years ago, Monica would not have thought she was capable of such an achievement. She was well informed and not so ambitious, especially with Adrian for so many years. That's why I want to try something new after Hacker Empire, like creating my own fashion brand.

She has been a model for at least a decade and has grown up in Italy, and she does have a natural sensitivity to fashion, whether it's clothing or perfume or shoes, she can grasp popular veins. However, in doing so, it is necessary to invest wholeheartedly in creating a brand, and it is best for the founder to design it by hand. That way you can grasp people's or celebrity's preferences and drive the fashion.

Monica has no shortage of connections, not to mention Adrian behind her, who has had many friends in the entertainment and fashion circles over the years. Only then, the movie piece has to be released unless you're just playing like some star, hanging under some famous brand, designing one or two things to attract fans to pay for your wallet.

Anyway, Monica now has a lot of movie stars. That's why Adrian was worried, only that she had made up her mind, so he chose to support it.

I look forward to it, Monica, and I really look forward to how fashion brands you create will make the future even more interesting. With this in mind, Adrian enters the stage lobby of the Koda Theatre.

On the ceiling. Beautiful lighting turns round and round into an ellipse, gleaming with brilliant light, while on stage stands a golden arch that looks quite gorgeous. Seats for more than 3,000 people are almost half seated, with three floors behind them and more than a dozen smaller compartments on either side.

“It's a versatile stage. Movies, patterns, stage dramas, can be played here.” Adrian sat in his seat and exclaimed, then looked at Nicole around him, and some of the scenery blinked: “Why can't the organizers arrange for us to be in the compartments on both sides? Personally, it's more comfortable to sit and watch the awards ceremony. ”

Nicole whimpered and turned her head aside to ignore him, what he was saying she couldn't possibly understand. Adrian Haha smiled and looked next to him. Gwyneth, Blanchett, and Liv are all nearby, and Julia, Zeta Jones, and Kate and Sarah are far away, because this year's Red Mill, Ring King 1, and Beautiful Minds are closest to him, so the three groups are seated together. Every year, it's almost Oscar's routine. He's the only one who can be treated like this.

Tens more minutes later, the people in the lobby were finally seated and the awards ceremony was about to officially begin. However, the host appeared in a very special way, as she landed off the ceiling on a rope ladder, and the background music played by Red Mill, coupled with that gorgeous suit, was undoubtedly imitating Nicole's gorgeous outfit in the film.

Well, if it's a beautiful woman, it's an eye-catching thing to show up this way and dress like that, Koubi? Goldberg is a beautiful woman? So there was a big laugh. Especially when she says hello, the deliberately loaded oil slip tone and the rather fat body in the swing makes the scene laugh.

Adrian looked at it with a slight shake of her head. Nicole around her smiled, but had a slight glimmer in her eyes. After all, this was her proudest character at the moment. Even if a comedian or a black man used it to make such a mess, even if she knew that the other person had no malice, just to get a vibrant atmosphere and attract eyes, she would inevitably feel uncomfortable in her heart.

Adrian was also slightly shaking her head in the eyes for this caution, and now it's just the beginning, with more flowers in the back of Fort Gold. This is Ubby already? Goldberg's hosting the Oscar Awards for the fourth time, Billy? Christo was a good host, but he couldn't have done it all the time, and Billy wouldn't have said yes, even if the Academy wanted to, and hosting Oscar was a tough thing, though it was a sight to see.

But there aren't many people who can replace him, so for the sake of safety, the Academy invited Ubby? Goldberg hosted at least a few of her previous sessions.

But Goldberg is quite... can't be said to be bad, but it's uncomfortable to make someone like Adrian like her uncomfortable. She loves to change some gorgeous clothes on the stage and shake them. Of the three previous Oscars she hosted, at least one changed seven or eight.

Although her main purpose in changing clothes is to attract attention to viewership, the statement just now is that if a beautiful woman is willing to change her clothes, then she is a fat black woman... it really is not discrimination, it is just the truth.

Sure enough, at the next awards ceremony, when two or three awards were awarded, she changed her clothes, and most of them were imitating Nicole's appearance in The Red Mill. The gorgeous outfit, such as the wild chicken feather behind her, although not, made her look even more hilarious, so Nicole's face never looked so good.

“Why bother with that?” Adrian took a blank hold of her hand and whispered in her ear.
