1195 thunderous applause
“"Wow!" Thunderous applause swept in. The red curtain on the side stage was slowly opened, and then you could see a smiling Asian face. Under the guidance of the emcee, you left the stage and walked over..
Renly's eyes lit up slightly at the sight of the visitor. It turned out that the award that had just been handed out was for Best Director..
Throughout this year's awards season, Ben Affleck of "Escape from Tehran" and Steven Spielberg of "Lincoln" have shown fierce competition. The battle between the two is undoubtedly the biggest attraction; and in In addition, Ang Lee of "Life of Pi" and David O. Russell of "Silver Linings Playbook" are also the focus of the First Group's attention.
But after the Golden Globe Awards ended, the Oscar nomination list was officially announced. Affleck, who was proud of his success, was unexpectedly eliminated. This also made the trend of the major Oscar awards suddenly become unpredictable..
In the last life, Ang Lee successfully stood out and became the biggest beneficiary of Affleck's elimination. After "Brokeback Mountain", he won his second Oscar for Best Director; in this life, Renly is missing the troublemaker. After being blended in, the historical trajectory did not deviate too much. Ang Lee once again successfully reached the top and became a representative figure of Chinese directors in the vanity fair of Hollywood..
At this moment, it was Ang Lee who appeared in front of Renly..
The excitement and excitement deep in his soul began to flap his butterfly wings. Renly politely moved out of the way and took the initiative to say hello to Li An, "Congratulations.".”
Li An's footsteps paused for a moment, and with the dim light, he vaguely caught the outline of Renly's face, showing an expression of sudden realization, "Oh, thank you..”
Renly smiled and nodded for a moment, "The work this time is very good, the visual effects are really amazing. Of course, I like the discussion and in-depth discussion of Eastern philosophy in the story even more..”
“Undoubtedly, this is a work worth watching again and again. To be honest, I don’t know any director who can combine the subtlety of the East and the spiciness of the West so perfectly like you. I look forward to your next work." He spoke in a leisurely and unhurried rhythm, but the amount of information in a short period of time was overwhelming. Renly expressed all his thoughts calmly and calmly..
Then, after expressing "congratulations" again, Renly, under the guidance of the staff, left the side stage, walked along a side passage to the back of the stage, and appeared on the stage in a positive manner..
Li An stood there, a little dazed..
Just after receiving the award, the emotions in his mind were still surging, and his reaction was a little out of step. Suddenly he met Renly and received the message. Before he could recover, Renly had already Turned around and left. Thinking about it carefully, Ang Lee couldn't help but chuckle. This young actor is an interesting guy..
“plum? "The emcee politely reminded him.
Li An immediately realized that they were still standing on the side stage. This was not a place to stay for a long time. If they continued to stand here, it would only cause traffic jams. So, he quickly nodded in affirmation and then took steps. He walked towards the waiting room and heartily accepted the congratulations and congratulations from his colleagues..
On the other hand, Renly's footsteps have arrived directly behind. On the stage, Seth's simple words can be clearly heard..
After the Best Director Award was awarded just now, the TV broadcast cut to an advertisement, because the awards ceremony was coming to an end, and now there are only three important awards left: Best Actress, Best Actor and Best Picture, which are also the most popular ones. It’s a moment of attention. This advertisement is the last chance of the entire award ceremony..
After the commercial ended, Seth appeared again, adjusting the atmosphere of the scene with a relaxed tone, and cut back to the award ceremony..
“……When we mention this person, we should firmly refuse to envy, because once we are envious, it means losing. But honestly, who doesn’t want to be him?？”
“In the movie "Crazy Love", his handsomeness, his humor, his cuteness, his youthfulness, his sadness and his focus... God, I am definitely not in love with him. No, absolutely not; but I believe that he made countless people fall in love with him and created his own history with a heartbroken look..”
“Ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome, Lord Renly Hall.”
Seth’s dialogue was concise and witty, humorous and endearing. While he was complaining about himself, he also had a hint of playfulness, which successfully aroused a low laugh; more importantly, at the last moment, he quoted “The Hon. "The title is definitely the finishing touch, reminding people once again that Renly was born into a noble family..
As a result, there was applause in the Dolby Theater. At the same time, many viewers could be seen standing up and blowing whistles. The cheers and shouts were endless. You could truly feel the welcome and support from Hollywood..
Renly's footsteps stabilized at the microphone in front of him, but the warm applause still did not stop, which made him chuckle, "I guess the work of my publicist and agent has finally achieved some results. "An incomprehensible remark, all the guests present could not help but be stunned, not understanding what was going on..
The subtext is that after the identity of a hereditary noble is exposed, public relations work will undoubtedly be difficult, otherwise Hollywood will always be full of rejection of highly educated British academy actors, as Renly said in an interview on the "Ellen Show" last year ; But now, Hollywood has opened its arms to accept Renly, which means that the work of the public relations people has achieved results..
This is a high-level self-deprecation, and it is also a wise ridicule. In one sentence, it includes all the wealthy Hollywood fans, but not everyone can understand it. Only a small number of people who really understand the meaning of the words exchange a glance with each other. , and then they all burst out laughing..
However, the most ironic moment came：
Even though most people couldn't understand it, there was still a low laugh. Is it because it was... a joke by the nobles? Worried that if you don’t understand, you will become mediocre and stupid? Just like pursuing those nobles and superiors.
The smile in Renly's eyes became meaningful. Vanity Fair is indeed an interesting circle..
When you are outside, you cannot see clearly; when you are inside, you cannot help yourself; only when you are truly above it can you see clearly.
Even Renly himself is in it now. He cannot see through it after all. It is just because of his family background in this life that he can see it a little more clearly, but he is still trapped in the game; he wants to reach the height of Woody Allen. , he still needs to practice hard..
“I was standing backstage just now, and the staff communicated with me the speeches for today’s awards.” It’s not like an award ceremony, but more like casual chat, less formal and more casual, but with elegant English and calmness The gesture brings a feeling of spring breeze and makes people enjoy it. "They listed a series of words of praise to describe the greatness of the actress..”
“Passionate, sensitive, brave, sexy, complex, free, strong, interesting, tenacious, passionate, elegant." The words rolled down one by one like pearls, striking a wonderful rhythm, like a graceful and heroic poem. , touching, "But then, I gave up.”
Turning around, the smile on Renly's lips firmly grabbed the attention of all the audience, "Because language is too pale and not enough to describe the greatness of women; and because actresses don't need compliments from a man, they The existence itself holds up half the sky, so all we need to do is just keep quiet and enjoy their performance. This is enough..”
“"Bah bang bang", applause, thunderous applause, Jessica Chastain was the first to start cheering, interrupting Renly's introduction, and the other actresses also clapped their hands to cheer. The most passionate and sincere way to express their inner excitement and joy.
The so-called equal rights does not mean that one is better than another, but that we stand on an equal footing and enjoy the rights we deserve. For women, for black people, for Asians, for patients, for homosexuals, for This is true for every disadvantaged minority group.
Renly stood there as a gentleman and politely, making no special movements. He just smiled and watched the applause in front of him, and then took the initiative to say, "The following are the five actresses who won nominations this year..”
“Jessica Chastain, 'Hunting Ben'**’.”
“Quvenzhané-Wallis, 'Beasts of the South'’.”
“Jennifer Lawrence, 'Silver Linings Playbook'’.”
“Naomi Watts, 'The Miracle of the Tsunami'’.”
“Emmanuelle Riva, 'Love’.”
After the five nominees were announced, Renly raised the envelope in his hand and opened the heavy golden envelope under the spotlight. If someone told Renly, this envelope was almost as heavy as a smartphone. , he will definitely not believe it, but the fact is that he only feels like he is holding an iPhone. Obviously, every year's envelope is also specially made..
Not as nervous as he imagined, Renly opened the envelope directly, took out the white card inside, lowered his eyes, and a line of black fonts came into view..
Is it Jennifer Lawrence? Or Jessica Chastain? Or Emmanuelle Riva？
There is no doubt that this is the biggest suspense and the fiercest competition in the entire awards season. Now, the answer is in Renly's hands. He raised his head and faced the dark eyes of the audience, with that kind of nervousness and heat. Slowly spreading in the air, invisible pressure still swarmed in. At this moment, Renly truly felt the weight of the "Oscar", even far more than what he felt when he won the award last year..
Some people spend their whole lives chasing this trophy, not simply for a statuette, but to prove their own sense of existence, and to prove that their efforts and struggles have been recognized accordingly..
Renly smiled slightly, "Jennifer Lawrence, 'Silver Linings Playbook'’.”
