"Best Actor? Sorry, I never said I would win the award, but I think the only one who can compete with me for the award this year is Downey, the lead actor of Transformers... Downey's acting in Transformers is absolutely world-class. I can predict responsibly that the only choice for Best Actor is between me and Downey..."
"What? Mr. Lu Yuan from The Legend of 1900? Yes, I don't deny that he does have some acting skills, and I also cannot deny that The Legend of 1900 created a sensation at the box office, but the box office does not mean that he can win the Best Actor Award, and the box office does not represent everything... I always feel that the Best Screenwriter Award is very likely to go to Mr. Lu Yuan, but for the Best Actor Award, I'm sorry... I didn't count him..."
"Arrogant? Sorry, I've never been an arrogant person. In fact, Mr. Lu Yuan is already very good. Have you ever seen a Chinese person nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor? No, in the history of the Oscars, the Best Supporting Actor award has been nominated for a Chinese person, but no one has actually won it... Mr. Lu Yuan was nominated for Best Actor, which in itself shows that he is amazing. As for Best Actor... Sorry, to be fair, I don't think God would give him this award."
"He is also a Best Actor? Sorry, he is only a Best Actor in China. China is just a small stage, but the real big stage is in the United States, in Hollywood, and at... the Oscars!"
"Although I don't agree with what you said, if you think I don't take him seriously and insist on thinking so, then you can understand here..."
“…”
“…”
In the video.
He looked polite, but his eyes revealed a menacing contempt.
He faces the camera.
The corners of his mouth raised slightly, as if he could see Lu Yuan's expression before watching the video.
He feels...
The expression of this Chinese man at this moment is definitely very interesting.
Lu Yuan!
Others are afraid of you and think that you have endless tricks, but I am not afraid of you.
On this world-class stage of the Oscars, I will let you bow your head.
I will let you...
Look up to me!
The midday sun shone on Pablo's face.
Pablo looked up in the direction of the "remote" in the distance.
That direction seemed so remote, so...
Small.
He looked again in the direction of Century.
There are many tall buildings and staff members coming in and out, just like a castle.
This moment...
The feeling of disdain in his heart became stronger.
There are always some people in this world who don't believe in evil. They think their own fame can overshadow everything. They always think that other people's failure is their own failure, but they may not fail.
There are always some people who are very confident and think that they are the protagonists of this world, and everything else is just their foil...
And Pabloson!
Just this kind of people.
…
"Boss, this guy is so irritating, should we respond to him?"
"Respond? Respond to what?"
"We can't let him look down on us like this in front of the media, can we? Boss, who are you and who is he?"
"Forrest, so you're angry?"
"I……"
"Hahaha, Forrest, don't be angry, it's just a prize, it doesn't matter..."
"Ah? This is the Oscar for Best Actor! Our film 'The Legend of 1900' has been overwhelming all the way, if we can win this award, we..."
“Does it make sense?”
"ah?"
"How much prize money do you get for the Best Actor award?"
"It, it's not a bonus, it's a kind of meaning!"
"A name? A symbol?"
"yes!"
"Can I change it for money?"
"Of course, he..."
"Would it matter to me if I didn't have it?"
"ah……"
In fact.
Lu Yuan did not show any expression, not even a hint of anger.
After watching the video, Lu Yuan felt no emotion at all and even smiled indifferently.
In fact, he really has little interest in these awards.
The Oscars are indeed important to others and are indeed a symbol of awesomeness.
After winning the award, you will receive film offers continuously and your pay will also increase. At the same time, you will have a certain status in Hollywood and be valued by many advertisers?
but!
It's of no use to Lu Yuan.
Film contract? Film remuneration?
He makes his own movies and acts in his own movies. Does his pay matter?
Hollywood status, valued by advertisers?
Does he need all this attention? Now there are so many people who want Lu Yuan to endorse their products that they are lining up. The company’s phone is almost blown up every day. Lu Yuan is getting annoyed by all the rejections, so he doesn’t want it…
Therefore, the Oscar for Best Actor is just the icing on the cake for Lu Yuan, nothing else.
It's meaningless.
"Forrest..."
"Um."
"Let him act pretentious, let him be arrogant... It won't affect our ability to make money, we just need to do our own thing. By the way... Forrest, I've written the script for Whiplash, you should think about it carefully."
"oh."
Forrest looked at Lu Yuan silently.
Lu Yuan was calm.
I don't know why, but the irritability and anger in my heart disappeared instantly after seeing Lu Yuan's calmness.
Then he took over Lu Yuan's script.
After reading an introduction, his eyes lit up.
This script and "Rocky" are both art films, but they are very impactful art films.
"Boss, I understand." Forrest nodded suddenly.
"Do you really understand?" Lu Yuan was surprised.
"Yeah, I see." Forrest nodded.
"What do you understand?"
"Pabotson is just a clown, and we never need to take clowns seriously. He is like an insignificant speck of dust. No matter how high he jumps, he is still dust. Facing dust..." Forrest looked at Lu Yuan, and then spoke his true feelings seriously.
Lu Yuan was stunned. He was about to say that this was not what he meant. He was just not very interested in Oscar winners...
But then, he gave up.
He nodded.
Whatever you think.
Anyway, the result is the same.
After seeing his boss nod, Forrest felt very excited deep down. He felt recognized and even a little bit honored.
…
"Wow, here they come, Director Winter is here..."
"Director Winter looks so handsome. Even though he's quite old, he's really charming!"
"Wow, my God, Benjamin is here too. Benjamin is still so handsome. Did his movie 'Romantic Journey' win an award too? Oh my God, he's the best supporting actor!"
"Edward! Wow, Edward is here too... Mr. Edward, can I ask you what you want to say about winning the Best Supporting Actor Award for The Legend of 1900? This seems to be the first time you have won such an award..."
"Jester is here too! Wow, Mr. Jester..."
“…”
“…”
afternoon.
As the sun gradually set, the Dolby Theatre began to light up.
At the edge of the light, a red carpet covered with flowers stretched straight into the distance, and on both sides of the red carpet stood crazy reporters and fans...
Every time a Hollywood star comes down, there is a sensation and countless reporters flock to the scene, hoping to interview even the slightest bit of hot news.
When the two world-class pianists, Jester and Edward, walked down the stage, all the reporters immediately surrounded them like crazy.
The Oscar nomination for "The Legend of 1900" is actually terrifying.
It received 9 nominations in total.
Edward was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, and Jester won an Oscar for Best Original Score...
These two awards are not the most impressive ones in the Oscars, but the fact that two pianists were nominated for these two awards is already news. If they win the awards next, it will be crazy explosive news.
You said Lu Yuan is also a pianist?
All right……
For some reason, everyone subconsciously ignored this troublemaker.
All the reporters felt that Lu Yuan was not pure.
At least Edward Jester and the other two can be considered pure pianists.
But Lu Yuan...
Damn, I have so many identities, and although they are all awesome, how can I be pure?
It's just a freak!
Jester and Edward walked into the Dolby Theatre with their female companions, smiling and gracefully, despite the questions from a large group of reporters, like princes in a fairy tale...
The only difference is that one is fatter and the other is thinner.
Outside the theater.
A stretched Rolls-Royce stopped.
Amidst the commotion, Pabotson walked down in the spotlight of the crowd.
As he came down, he looked ahead...
He did not give interviews to reporters or walk the red carpet.
Instead, he was waiting for something.
The reporters were very curious and wanted to ask questions, but unfortunately, Pablo had many bodyguards and they came prepared...
Reporters were kept outside.
About ten minutes later, a limited edition Porsche stopped on the other side of the long road.
After seeing the Porsche...
The reporter's eyes lit up.
This car seems to be...
Annie's?
There are three Porsche GTAs in the world...
One was Annie's, one was Lu Yuan's, and the other one belonged to a mysterious person.
Anier's Porsche is often driven, but Lu Yuan's Porsche...
Rarely opened.
When the car stopped.
Annie, who was wearing sunglasses, stopped.
When Pabotson saw Annie, his eyes lit up and he went over to her without saying a word.
"Good afternoon, Miss Annie."
"Oh, Mr. Pablo, good afternoon."
"Miss Annie, I'm honored to meet you. I hope to walk the red carpet with you... My invitation is very sincere, Miss Annie, I think we... Hmm? Miss Annie, are you waiting for someone?" Pabotson said halfway through in a gentlemanly manner, and suddenly looked at Annie who was looking into the distance with a strange look, as if, waiting for someone.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Pabloson... If I remember correctly, you should have your own female companion, right?"
"Well, that's true, but if possible, I still hope..."
Anne...
One of the sexiest and most beautiful actresses in Hollywood.
It would be a very lucky thing for Pablo to be able to walk the red carpet with Annie.
For this reason, he temporarily asked his female companion not to come out...
In fact, Pabotson had invited Annie many times, but Annie never refused or agreed.
Just keep a certain distance from him.
Pablo knew that actresses like Anne did have their own pride.
"Excuse me, Mr. Pablo."
"Um?"
At this moment...
Pablo suddenly saw Annie turn around and walk in another direction.
On the other side...
Another flashy-looking Porsche GTA pulled up.
"Fuck...Forrest, I think it's better to drive your Chevrolet. I always feel too sexy when I ride in this car..."
"Hey, Boss... This car is very prestigious. Also, I remember you are the spokesperson for Porsche, this..."
"I know...but..."
“…”
The car window is open.
Under the watchful eyes of the public.
Lu Yuan, wearing sunglasses, walked down from the flashy Porsche with a wry smile on his face.
"Mr. Lu Yuan..."
"Ah? Miss Annie?"
"Mr. Lu Yuan, your wife didn't come today?"
"I wanted to bring her here, but she said it wasn't suitable for her to come..."
"So, what are your plans, Mr. Lu Yuan?"
"It's just a red carpet walk. What are your plans..."
"You plan to go alone?"
"Then what?"
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu Yuan... I'm alone too, how about we get together?"
"No, you'll definitely have to pose for photos there. I don't like having my photo taken, so I'll probably just walk away very quickly!"
“Hahaha, it’s okay…”
The sun sets gradually.
Not far away...
Pablo was like a spare tire, staring blankly at Lu Yuan...
as well as……
Annie was smiling and kept her eyes on Lu Yuan from beginning to end.
The setting sun shines on Pablo's face.
at first……
He still has a smile.
But at this moment...
Pablo's smile froze...
