Best Actor

    The bright stage is showing the hustle and bustle of the Oscars ceremony. Whoopi Goldberg is doing his best to liven up the atmosphere of the scene, even if he keeps pretending to be ugly in strange clothes to achieve a funny effect, For example, wearing the same cocktail dress that Nicole Kidman wore in "Moulin Rouge" at the beginning, it caused a lot of laughter.

    But Sean's mind is not on the awards ceremony at the moment. Anyway, he has no nominations at this awards ceremony, so he should come to a big party. Since it's a party, it doesn't take too much seriousness, so he can take time to think about other things, such as meeting Nicole when he came in with Naomi before.

    It's not that he has any thoughts on Nicole, but even though he played a few tricks in the language, the other party still saw that he and Naomi had an unusual relationship. Well, in fact, he didn't intend to hide it, but considering Naomi's attitude towards this relationship, even though she took the initiative to say "you really want to talk to me like this" outside, he still tried try.

    Then Naomi chose the default, well, maybe she thought he wanted this, so she cooperated, but...

    Sean shook his head slightly, a little disappointed, but also a little… thankful?

    "What are you thinking?" Vladimir, who was sitting with him, asked while applauding.

    "I was thinking, it's disappointing that I can only go up and sing a song in such a lively stage." Sean smiled, and then asked: "How about you? After a long silence, Coming here again as a producer."

    "It's a pity that there's only one nomination for Best Original Screenplay," Vladimir shrugged, but he couldn't see any dissatisfaction, "but I believe it's just the beginning, right?"

    He looked at Sean with a serious expression, as if he believed it from the bottom of his heart.

    "Of course." Sean laughed, "This is really just the beginning."

    There is no film company that doesn’t want its own films to win Best Picture Oscars, even if it’s just a small company. Besides, Samsara Pictures is no longer a small company. With the new funding Injecting, Vladimir has already acquired the two small companies that have been negotiated, and the shriveled film library is slowly filling up.

    Then, America's Next Top Model, in partnership with CBS and Victoria's Secret, was slowly but surely making preparations, with many questions being raised and then being resolved. As for the two horror films designated by Sean, the remake of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" is nearing the end, and it will be possible to transfer to the later stage after the Oscar is over. Shimizu's "The Grudge" is because it wants to set the story on the American people. On the body, plus Sean gave him enough time, so he is still perfecting the script, and it will start up in about June.

    In addition, Vladimir also invested in two small-budget movies, which did not involve Sean, or made predictions.

    It is impossible for a film company to rely on Sean alone to identify which scripts are worth investing in and which are not, which is what he and Vladimir agreed. In modern society, it is stupid to tie the rise and fall of a company to one person. A professional and effective team is the foundation. That is, people like Steve Jobs can make a lot of routines.

    Sean is not Steve Jobs, he is an ordinary person in both past and present life, and at best is a very hard-working ordinary person, so this is very necessary. Moreover, even if he finds a script that may sell well, if the actor or director he finds is wrong, or for some other reason, the film may fail, and not every luck will be as good as "My Big Greek Wedding".

    Therefore, it is necessary to invest in some low-cost movies, one can enrich the film library, and secondly, some good works can be found. Most of them only need to recover the cost. Anyway, German companies will Happy to invest.

    In short, his production company has developed steadily under the operation of Vladimir, and the amazing performance of "My Big Greek Wedding" before has also given this man from the publishing department of Bowei. The middle-aged man has an inexplicable confidence, which is why he would say such words very seriously.

    Well, let's focus on the stage, no matter what happens to Samsara Pictures in the future, they are just Oscar's accomplices, just like Sean is now.

    The ceremony reached a small climax as Best Supporting Actress was awarded to Jennifer Connelly of A Beautiful Mind, while Sean quietly got up to go backstage.

    "Please come here, Mr. Tang, we have 15 minutes to prepare for you." The staff led him to the dressing room.

    "Thank you." Sean nodded politely, then walked quickly to his position, and almost collided with a thin old man.

    "Be careful, young man, I only came here once. If I have to go back before I play, that's great." The other party flexibly dodged and said with a smile.

    "Oh?" Hearing this interesting answer, Sean turned his head involuntarily, then froze, "Mr. Woody Allen?"

    "No, I'm not," the little old man replied solemnly, "Everyone knows, Woody Allen never attended the Oscars, so how could I be Woody Allen."

     Several staff members around couldn't help laughing, Sean shook his head with a smile, and then stretched out his hand: "Nice to meet you here, not Woody Ai Mr. Woody Allen of Lun."

    "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. I don't know your name." The other party shook hands and said in a serious tone.

    "Sean," Sean sat laughing and introduced himself, "Sean Tang."

    "Sean Down?" Woody Allen looked stunned, "Yes, I know, the singer who sang "YouRaiseMeUp", right? That's really good It's a very touching song."

    "Um..." Sean pinched his nose awkwardly, "Actually, Mr. Allen, I'm an actor."

    "Actor?" The little old man blinked and didn't seem to understand.

    Then the staff next to me had to remind: "Two gentlemen, our time is very tight."

    "Okay, let's talk later, Sean." Allen laughed and patted his arm again.

    "No problem, Ai...Woody." Sean nodded and followed the staff to do makeup.

      can do it.

    After all, this little old man never participated in the Oscar ceremony, the reason is that such an award is too subjective, and it is impossible to judge a really good work. Well, whether this is correct or not, just because he never attends an awards ceremony, the film academy still awards him an award to know how well-connected he is.

    In short, he is here at this moment, so there must be a special reason, and this special reason, Sean just knows. Without him, or because of the disaster last year, the impact of the 9/11 incident on the United States and New York was very far-reaching, not to mention the war in Afghanistan and the Patriot Act, the cordon in New York is much higher than before, and the various inspections at JFK Airport It has also increased a lot, which makes people a little nervous.

    So the film academy invited this little old man who lived in New York for many years and made most of the movies to show the style of New York. I made an exception to say a few words at the awards ceremony, introduce New York, and call on filmmakers to continue to go. New York makes movies to be inspiring.

    And Sean knows because his show is right after Woody Allen, even though the rehearsals were kept secret by the organizers - they did a good job of it, Until now, not many people knew that Woody Allen would come to the Oscars.

    However, these secrecy work is not perfect, so as two connected programs, it is very easy for Sean to inquire about some information, so it was confirmed at a glance, rather than thinking that the host Fang wants to play a prank or something.

    "He's a funny guy, right?" After the little old man left, the staff who touched Sean's makeup chatted with him and asked with a smile.

    "Yes, that's why his movies are so good." Sean said in agreement.

    If you just say that, it's not wrong. Sean has seen some of the lines he wrote and handed over to the organizer. It's really interesting, with some self-deprecating jokes. It's definitely more fun to read. So, as this guy said, Woody Allen is indeed a talented, funny guy.

    But Sean doesn't have any idea of ​​cooperating with him, because the most memorable ones in Woody Allen's movies are basically actresses, and the little old man often plays the role of male The protagonist is one thing, colleague...

    And he has seen a few Woody Allen movies, but he is not very interested, plus this little old man in memory, his private life is not very good, and he married his adopted daughter That's all, I vaguely remember that in the past life, I heard that he seemed to have attacked more than one adopted daughter, and I really didn't know what to say.

    Only, as soon as he thought of Camilla, Sean realized that he was really not qualified to make irresponsible remarks about Woody Allen.

    Well, let’s not mention this, get to know each other if you have a chance, if you don’t have a chance, then forget it, anyway, the other party is based in New York, and some people in Hollywood don’t necessarily have to know him through him.

    After thinking so, Sean waited for the makeup artist to deal with him, tidied up his clothes, recalled the lyrics and brewed his emotions, and then came to the edge of the front desk, facing the upper Woody Allen played his self-deprecating humor on stage with thousands of guests.

    "I say people are more qualified than me, I name a lot of people like Martin Scorsese, Mike Nichols, Spike Lee, and I keep suggesting candidates , listed 15 masters who were more talented, witty, and more powerful than me, and they said yes, but they didn't have time!"

    The following burst into laughter.
