Chapter 158: 158

Tonight's 60th Academy Awards ceremony will start at 6 p.m. Western time.

Janet arrived from Malibu before five o'clock to help Simon in the office of Denise pictures headquarters. The two of them got on the extended limousine prepared in advance and went to the holy citizen hall in downtown Los Angeles.

Due to the strike of the writers, although it is the 60th birthday of the Oscars, many aspects of this award ceremony have been simplified. At about 5:30, Simon and Janet arrived outside the holy citizen hall, and the red carpet in front of them was only a short section of less than 20 meters, which led directly from the roadside to the entrance of the hall.

The limousine stops at the entrance of the red carpet. As soon as Simon and Janet get off the bus, the media reporters and guests on both sides of the red carpet notice them. The intense flashing lights, accompanied by the shouts from the stands on both sides, attract the eyes of many guests wandering on the red carpet.

Pat Kingsley, who arrived in advance, also came to Simon and reminded him and Janet to stop to take photos with the media.

A moment later, Simon hears another sound from the stands on both sides. He turns around and looks at Sandra Bullock in a white strapless evening dress, carrying her skirt to Simon and Janet.

Media reporters, who had already shot enough material, saw Sandra appear, and there was a commotion again.

He noticed that Simon just gave Sandra a little hug and planned to take Janet forward. Immediately a reporter yelled, "Simon, sandy, let's take a picture together?"

Before Simon could answer, Sandra nodded and looked at Janet, who was holding Simon's arm. Jeanette smiles, lets go of Simon's arm and steps back to one side. Then Sandra pulls it up.

With a stiff smile and the reporters taking photos, Simon pulled the corners of his mouth slightly during the change of posture and said to Sandra in an almost ventral voice: "do you really want to see Jenny cook me?"

Sandra leaned closer and even leaned her head on Simon's shoulder. Facing the more excited cries of reporters, Sandra responded heartlessly: "yes."

Simon can only lament that people are not nice.

After taking the photos, Simon stopped and took two women through the red carpet to enter the auditorium. He was glad that the red carpet was short enough, otherwise something might happen.

Although last year's box office champion of the year, "Lola Run" only won a dispensable nomination for best editing. As a result, Simon and Sandra are the only two invited to the whole crew. They will also be the guests of the best Photography Award tonight.

Oscar's important guests can naturally bring their partners. Simon brings Janet, but Sandra just comes alone.

Entering the auditorium, Simon once again found that the Oscar organizers, who were obviously afraid that the world would not be in chaos, specially linked their seats together. Simon was in the middle, Janet and Sandra left and right.

It was still some time before the award ceremony. Simon spent more than ten minutes in the auditorium chatting with some familiar guests, but he still had to return to his position. Originally wanted to let Janet sit inside, the woman was smiling and shaking her head, pushed him to the position.

As soon as Simon sat down, Sandra came to him as if nothing had happened: "Simon, are you ready for the award speech?"

Simon was a little puzzled: "hmm?"

"The best clip nomination?" Sandra reminded him and patted him gently on the shoulder: "you're playing silly, aren't you?"

Simon really didn't think of it. He shook his head and said, "there's nothing to prepare for this kind of nomination with almost zero winning probability."

"Maybe you'll win the prize," Sandra said, and soon, with a bit of a vindictive voice, "it's all those old-fashioned people who could have won more nominations for" Lola Run. "

Simon made a silent gesture with a smile, winked around and said, "keep it down. I won't get the nomination any more when I'm heard."

"Ha ha," Sandra said with a nonchalant smile, but added, "if you really win the prize, please remember to thank me."

"No problem."

Sandra nodded with satisfaction and said, "by the way, what do you do after the award ceremony?"

Simon said, "go home and sleep."

"No? It's so boring, like an old man, "Sandra said, glancing at Janet on the other side and saying," why don't we go to Warner's party together? "

"Well?"

"You know, I took Warner's dangerous relationship."

"Oh."

Simon nodded, thinking of the film based on a French epistolary novel, which is also a popular Oscar nomination next year.

Some time ago, Sandra showed him the script. Simon remembers that the role she got originally belonged to Michelle Pfeiffer, who was also nominated for Best Supporting Actress in an Oscar.

After a few casual inquiries, Simon learned that Warner had intended Michelle Pfeiffer to play that role. However, things have to go back to the beginning of the year when Ed limato, vice president of wma, took a large number of stars such as Mel Gibson to ICM. Then, wma easily used resources to grab the role. Warner compared the popularity of Sandra and Michelle and made a decisive choice.Of course, as an ancient costume art film and a supporting role, Sandra can't ask too much. This kind of script is just for the purpose of accumulating qualifications.

Sandra listened to Simon's voice, but there was no response. She took her shoulder to him again and said, "are you going?"

Because only one nomination was received, danelis pictures did not prepare for the party. Simon was invited to the after party by Warner, Orion and other companies, but none of them planned to attend. At this time, listening to Sandra's questioning, Simon had to look at Janet on the other side and repeat Sandra's question: "are you going?"

"Go," said Jeanne, turning white. Simon looked at Sandra, who had just treated her like the air. "Sandy, haven't you ever thought about finding a boyfriend?"

"I'm working hard," Sandra said

Janet leaned over to Simon, bared her white teeth and threatened in a low voice, "you'll get caught doing this."

Sandra shrugged indifferently, approached Simon and whispered, "in that case, I'll have to rely on Simon for the rest of my life."

Janet put her eyes on someone who pretended she didn't exist on the back of her chair and said, "I've scratched his face, too. Do you want any more?"

Sandra said with a smile, "if you cook him, I'll take it."

Janet's beautiful eyes narrowed and said, "you keep it for the winter?"

Sandra nodded, "well, remember to put more salt in when you cook."

Simon saw the two women on his left and right saying something with a smile that made his back cool. He raised his hand and made a gesture of surrender. "Beg for mercy," he said, "let's change the topic and be positive."

Janet and Sandra cast a white eye at him at the same time. Just as they were about to continue, the staff began to remind the guests to sit down. Then the two girls calmed down.

At six o'clock, the award ceremony officially began.

After the opening song and dance and the Academy President Robert Wise's 60th anniversary speech, Chevy Chase, the host of this year's awards ceremony, stepped on the stage.

Chevy Chase is one of the most famous comedy stars in Hollywood in the 1970s and 1980s. Born in "Saturday night live", Chevy Chase became famous with "animal house" which was the third place at the box office in 1978.

However, maybe it's still because of the writers' strike. Chevy Chase's performance on the stage is poor. The five minute talk show style prologue is basically a straightforward introduction to the various nominated films of this term, occasionally mixed with a few cold jokes that are obviously not too funny.

Simon prefers Billy Crystal to Chevy Chase, who tends to be cool and humorous. But in my memory, it will be a few years before Billy Cristo starts hosting the Oscars.

Although the award ceremony basically has nothing to do with Simon, feeling the hot atmosphere of the scene and occasionally chatting with two women around him, Simon didn't feel bored.

It took more than half an hour for Simon and Sandra to leave their seats and enter the backstage as the award for best photography approached.

Simon didn't attend the rehearsal ahead of time, just got a warm-up line. Under the guidance of the staff, Simon and Sandra took the envelope containing the award results and stood at the exit of the stage to start the backcourt.

Looking at the winner of the best animated short film on stage, Sandra reached for Simon's arm, raised the envelope and said, "you should have been one of the nominees. It's really unfair."

Simon laughed and said, "I really like this unfair world. Sandy, only people at the bottom of the pyramid will pursue or fantasize about fairness."

"Are you really not angry at all?"

"I find that I rarely have anger, or a lot of other emotions," Simon said, shaking his head. "It could be lack of emotion or something."

Sandra was stunned and asked, "well, do you love Janet?"

Simon said without hesitation, "love."

"Do you love me?"

"No love."

"But I love you."

"Thank you."

"Asshole," Sandra said, pinching Simon's arm. "I won't let you go."

They whispered. The winner on the stage finished his speech. After the music, Chevy Chase's voice sounded again: "Hollywood has always been a place full of miracles. In the past year, miracles seem to happen more frequently than ever. Some people have done a lot of work in person, such as directing, screenwriting, photography, lighting and so on. They have completed a very excellent film. Some people have won the annual box office champion for their first film, and some people have become the youngest millionaire in the world after they have finished the film. What seems most miraculous is that the creator of these miracles is actually one person. Welcome Simon westero and Sandra Bullock. "

Amid the applause, Simon and Sandra went to the stage together and stood in front of the microphone.

When the applause fell, Simon looked at the dense crowd in the auditorium. After waiting for a moment, he found that Sandra had not begun to speak her lines. He quickly raised his hand and patted her gently on her back.Feeling Simon's action, Sandra regained her mind, stabilized her mood, and said: "photographers are always the first group of people we know after we joined the cast. For actors, maybe we want them to make themselves more beautiful, but in fact, they can do more. Even if you just run for more than an hour, they can pass the no show There are several ways to show your running perfectly on the big screen. "

In the light laughter under the stage, Simon continued: "an excellent film always has an excellent photographer, who has made an indelible contribution to establishing the artistic style of a film. Well, the best photo nominees for this year's Oscars are:

"Alan davio, the sun empire."

"Vittorio storaro, the last emperor."

"Michael Bauhaus, radio news."

"Philip ruslot, years of glory."

"Haskell Wexler, front of wrath."

After introducing the five nominees alternately, Sandra handed Simon the envelope. Simon opened the envelope with a smile, took out the result, looked at it, and announced to the microphone, "the winner is Vittorio stolaro, the last emperor."

No suspense.

Vittorio stolaro came on stage amid applause and took the golden man from Simon. The Oscars left a short speech for the technical awards. After a simple speech, Simon and Sandra soon accompanied Vittorio stolaro backstage.

Vittorio stolaro was welcomed by the staff to install the nameplate and take photos for the little golden man, and Simon and Sandra were free.

Because of the initial small mistake, Sandra's mood was still a little tense. Simon didn't rush back to the hall. He took her to a sofa backstage and asked for a bottle of water from the staff. After opening it, he handed it to Sandra and asked, "how do you feel?"

After a few drinks, Sandra worried and said, "Simon, did I screw up?"

"Of course not. You're just a little slow," Simon said, shaking his head with a smile. "What's more, even if you mess up, as long as you're a big star all the time, you'll have to continue to be invited as an awarding guest after the Oscars."

"I thought it would be a very easy thing, you know, I've been on stage in New York," Sandra recalled. "But I've never seen so many people in front of me."

Simon didn't pay attention to the number of audience, but according to the memory just now, there are at least 2000 people in the whole holy citizen auditorium. Coupled with the fiery atmosphere of the whole award ceremony, it's not so strange that Sandra would feel nervous when she first stepped on this stage.

After a few more drinks, Sandra finally relaxed, glanced at the man beside her and asked, "aren't you a little nervous?"

Simon wondered, "why am I nervous?"

Sandra couldn't help pounding him: "well, you're a guy with no emotion."

Simon laughed and continued to chat with Sandra for a while before he said, "well, if you have no problem, let's go back and stay here. Jennie will think I'm having an affair with you."

Sandra nodded subconsciously, caught a joke word in Simon's words, turned her eyes, looked around, and suddenly came over.

Simon felt the woman's cool lip kiss on the corner of his mouth, immediately thought of the last experience, even busy way: "don't bite."
