Vol 3 Chapter 16: after that

The scene was silent, everyone stretched their necks and waited for Benini to announce the announcement. Even Adrian clenched his fists involuntarily. The best actress of the Oscars in this memory is so impressive that Annette Benin has such an advantage — the accumulated fame, the evaluation, and her husband ’s network — are still being It was unexpected that Hillary Swank was so cold.
Or this is God's providence, and from then on, Annette Benin will definitely lose if she encounters Hillary Swank. Although Adrian worked hard, handed over the public relations task to Weinstein, and let him use resources to create such a big battle, but who knows what will happen? Luck is sometimes difficult to say, and everyone who is born again must believe in something in the dark. [M]
In a sense, if you can win this best actress for Monica, it will prove that his goal is completely achievable, and half of it has been achieved. Adrian took a deep breath and clenched Monica's hand. Monica, watching the stage intently, didn't notice.
Benini watched it for about two or three seconds, but many people's feelings had passed for a few years, especially when he raised his eyebrows and surprised God, everyone's heart jumped.
"This unexpected name is also ... the name that delights me the most, Monica Bellucci," The Beautiful Legend of Sicily "!" Bernini announced loudly, with a cheerful expression, when One year later, another Italian actor won the Oscar for best actress. How could he not be happy? !!
The audience was quiet for about two seconds, and applause rang loudly. No matter what dissatisfaction or helplessness, you must now pay tribute to the winner.
Monica, sitting in her place, didn't move for a while, as if she didn't know who "Monica Bellucci" meant. Until applause rang suddenly in his ears, he turned his head and looked at Adrian.
"You won, dear. Go, get your honor in your hands." Adrian clapped his hands. Whispered with a smile.
Monica's eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of mist, and ōng's mouth began to rise and fall. Fortunately, she knew where it was now, and how many lenses and eyes were aimed at herself. So he quickly controlled his emotions, didn't rush over and hugged him to kiss him. After finishing his clothes, he immediately stood up.
Starting with Adrian, and congratulating the crew in turn. Monica came to the stage and took over from Benini the little golden man symbolizing the best actress of Oscar.
"Congratulations, Miss Monica." Benini said in admiration. For him, it is naturally very nice to see this scene.
"Thank you," Jīn moved Monica nodded, and then faced everyone in the lobby. "Well ... well. It's a little heavier than I thought."
A chuckle sounded.
"So ..." Monica took a deep breath. "Frankly, I don't know what to say. I don't have any psychological preparation. I knew that. I should prepare a draft first."
There was another good laugh in the hall.
"I have looked up here a few times, but never thought that one day I would really come up. But someone always encouraged me. He said that people's criticism will only make you more mature, and it will only make you sharpen yourself, Persevere, you will finally get your own glory. Now, this day has finally come, but I don't know what words to thank you, I ... I ... "She stuttered twice, seems to be hesitating, But after two or three seconds, I still spoke up.
"Thank you, Ed, thank you, I remember everything you said." Monica couldn't help covering her mouth, her eyes flashed a crystalline light, and she took a deep breath before continuing. : "Thank you, the judges for recognizing my efforts, thank my parents, you gave me endless support, and Marino, you are a little man ..."
Although Monica's speech was quickly transferred to other people, all she had to do was to have some brains, and she would understand what her initial stutter was to say. Of course, no one would say it and no one would compare it.
"Wonderful speech." After Monica returned to her place, Adrian smiled and teased, and a slightly hanging heart completely relaxed, "I thought you would be desperate, dear. of."
"It's not too late now, if you want." Monica, who had calmed down, gave him a white glance, with an indescribable āo charming.
Adrian chuckled softly, and didn't say any more, just held her hand and patted it again. Monica didn't connect again, and set her eyes on the stage, just holding his hand tighter.
The best actress will naturally be the best actor afterwards. Without any suspense, Kevin Spacey won the title of film actor. Although he also thanked Adrian in his speech, Adrian did not care anymore, but Blanchett, who was awarded a gold evening dress, attracted his attention even more. When he announced the winner of the award, that was Ren Hong chún one piece together, it is easy for him to recall the way in the bathroom, Blanchett and Gwyneth that divided and swallowed.
Next, there is no doubt that no film is the opponent of "American Beauty", Sam Mendes won the best director, and "American Beauty" won the best film.
Adrian did not go up when the best film was awarded, although he was a producer, and Mendes went up with the global producers. This was the first Xiaojin they won after being acquired by the media. people. Of course, Universal will never know, this is just the beginning.
"Hi Ed."
"Hello, Mr. Adrian."
After Adrian came out of the aisle, someone kept saying hello to him, he also smiled and responded to them one by one, and then a warm body ran into his arms: "Where have you been?"
A smooth silky oblique evening gown with white hair, long blond hair hanging straight down, with a little āo 嗔 and charming, make Gwennis look very mí.
"Take care of the little things inside, don't care." Adrian hugged her waist with a smile, and he didn't have to be as restrained as at Oscar at the Vanity Fair party.
"A little thing?" Gwyneth snorted slightly, getting slightly surprised as he took a deep breath near him. "How many times have you done that?"
Adrian smiled and shrugged without answering, just pulled down the neckline to make himself more casual, and rubbed it around his neck, to lighten the mark on it. Monica's enthusiasm exceeded his expectations, even after he was exhausted from his offense. Still not admitting to lose, they have to work hard forward, after a long time after arriving at death. In fact. As early as the end of Oscars, she put together in Adrian's ears and said without a doubt: I want you! The joy of the unsuccessful self-closing success was completely expressed after the restraint was released, but for various reasons, it had to be patient until now, and naturally it was extremely fierce.
However, she is no longer here, and after the love, Monica chose to go back. The two of them have now moved back to Los Angeles from Orange County. It won't be long before they return.
"I've been here for a while, but it's a party to Vanity Fair, and ..." said Monica, who was exhausted and entangled in Adrian, stroked his face. "So go back and spend time with Deva and Juliet, and show off in front of Sophie, so that she will work harder to squeeze you in the future."
She chuckled. Tenderness that keeps whining, "So, don't come back too late tonight."
"No, dear, it's just the two of us tonight." Adrian replied.
"... Are you serious?" Monica asked, leaning her head on his shoulder.
"Of course, this is necessary. It is also my request." Adrian raised an eyebrow and wěn a sip on her chún. "You can go back and see the children now, but you must go to me then, Tonight. You are my queen. "
In the face of such a love affair, what reason does Monica not agree to? She hardly refused him. What's more, which woman does not want her man to be with him wholeheartedly, even if she has accepted a lot of things.
"Where is Kate? You are not together." Adrian asked now.
"There, with the new Oscars." Gwennis then pointed to the right of the party hall.
Many people around him at this time congratulated him, some of them were sincere, some were perfunctory, and some were related. In short, there were many people and they were very lively.
"How does the best actor feel, Kevin?" Adrian gave him a high-five with a smile.
"Oh, this feels indescribable, as if it suddenly flew into the air, but with a strong sense of unrealism," Spisi said with a glass of wine, "If one day you become an actor, you also get an Oscar With the best actor, Ed, you will understand how I feel now. "
"Do you know what I think, Kevin." Adrian looked at him with a very serious look. "You drank too much, really."
The people around laughed out loud, but there was still a lot of envious eyes sweeping around Adrian. In Hollywood, probably only he could let Gwennis and Blanchett accompany each other. It's written.
A few more words, Adrian left immediately, and did not forget to throw some bait out before leaving.
"Don't be discouraged, Dan, you still have a chance. Losing to Kevin is just luck. In recent years, you have been out of luck, and Oscar should also give black actors a new film emperor." He said to Denzel Washington , And then seemed to add something: "Yes, I got an interesting script before, the idea is very good, but the specific content is not good, so people are revising, maybe you will come and try . "
Washington's eyes lit up suddenly: "No problem, Ed, as long as you need."
This is the power of fame. From Pasino to Spicey, too many actors have received the desired honor for Adrian. Against the olive branch, Denzel Washington can make it without any consideration. Decided? Too many people have tried their best to get in touch with director Marvel.
After leaving there, I chatted with Blanchett and Gwennis intimately. Adrian then walked away, and the two women did not have too much entanglement. They were very clear. Like last year, Adrian No one can change tonight to accompany Monica.
After another round, chatting with Julia, Zeta Jones, or Kirsten, and feeling their different styles, Adrian came to Nicole's side.
"Your wife is an actor out of sè, she's just out of luck." Adrian stood beside Nicole, smiling and shivering with the husband in front of him.
Female xìng is in her early forties and is well-maintained, with a mature style and attractive. Her husband was in his early sixties. Although the wrinkles climbed unstoppably on his face, he still could see his handsome appearance when he was young. They are Annette Benin and Warren Beatty.
It should have been nominated for Best Actress for "The Beauty" this year. Then accidentally lost to Swank Benin, and now sits and laughs with Nicole, who was nominated for Best Actress for "American Beauty". It's really interesting. Benin should have been nominated for this Oscar. There are no other movies like "American Beauty", and it is said that the film titled "Day by Day", which was co-produced with Gene Hackman, is very good. It was just squeezed out by Hillary Swank-okay. The last one was a rumor or Adrian's speculation, but anyway, she was really squeezed out, which was unfortunate.
But Adrian's attention was more on Warren Beatty. He won the Lifetime Achievement award at this Oscar. Although he has not won the best actor, it should be enough to have the best director and lifetime life award. He heard a lot of rumors about him in previous lives. But after all, people who were born in the 1930s, became famous in the 1960s and 1970s, and gradually faded out after the millennium, so it doesn't matter.
After rebirth, set your own goals. Adrian will inevitably think of such a legend and naturally understand it. Although in past lives I remember that Beatty once refuted a book that wrote about his life, saying that the contents inside were untenable, but he went deeper. Will know later. The content of that book is basically true.
Of course, the numbers may differ. The words of tens of thousands are still too exaggerated. The 20,000 that Chamberlain brags about is actually only 2,000. Even so, it is already quite amazing, and it is no wonder that it will become an idol for many people.
"Seeing you is like seeing me when I was young, Ed, we are really similar," whispered Beattie and Adrian, who were sitting next to Benin and Nicole, when they were having a good time talking, and then Glancing at Nicole, he narrowed his eyes at him, "but your means are much higher than mine."
In a sense, this is the truth. When treating women, both people have due respect, and they are also very emotional. Although the starting point is different, Adrian is obviously more sane, but at least both Didn't hurt the woman-well, Natalie was an accident, and it was also a stain of Adrian, but this is life, it can never be perfect and full of variables, and the rebirth cannot escape.
"Thank you, but some of your achievements cannot be surpassed." Adrian replied indifferently.
If it is more than a number, he must be better than that, even if that number is reduced by half, but it is more difficult to say if it is of a higher quality, not to mention that they still actively stay with him. This alone is enough to make it difficult for countless dudes Look at it, let alone surpass it. Just like a rumor describes him: a talented person who coaxes a woman is not as powerful as he is, a powerful person who coaxes a woman is not as talented as he is, and a powerful person is not as good as he coaxes a woman.
Therefore, Adrian will also be unique in the future.
"Why would they want to come and chat with you?" Adrian asked Nicole this way after the couple left.
"We met Warren, we talked a little, and Annette came over," Nicole answered.
Adrian raised an eyebrow, and then suddenly laughed. Warren Beatty, who has been in love for a lifetime, will get married. In addition to feeling old and wanting to settle down, there may be reasons why Benin can pay close attention to him. .
"It's a pity that you didn't get the best actress." He changed the subject and asked with a smile.
"There is always a chance." Nicole's blue eyes stared at Adrian in a very calm tone.
This made him both surprised and a little clear. When announcing the award of Monica at the award ceremony, he watched Nicole consciously or unintentionally. The crew of "American Beauty" and "The Legend of Sicily" are close together . Basically, except for the three best actress candidates, except for Streep, who was not surprised because of his rich experience, both Julian Moore and Hillary Swank were irresistible. But Nicole was always calm, as it is now.
"Did you say that?" She added immediately.
It is not the kind of peace that Streep sees through that is acceptable regardless of the result, but ... more confident, the failure now is only the peace that lays the foundation for the future. Obviously, Monica's successful closure has made her think about something thoroughly.
"Oh, EbookFREE.me ~ Ed, you are here." A voice passed into the ears of the two facing each other, "and the beautiful Miss Nicole."
"Hey, Don, how are you?" Adrian stood up immediately, and Nicole, who had wanted to say something, had to stand up.
"It's not good at all," the old man in a formal dress complained. "In order to find you, I've turned around here, knowing that I'm 70 soon."
"Then sit down and ask for something." Adrian smiled and invited him to the seat, and then snapped his fingers and called shì.
The younger brother of Donald Newhouse, Snyder Newhouse — that is, Samuel Owen Newhouse Jr. — and one of the heads of the Newhouse Group. Apparently he had something to discuss with Adrian, so after a few words of humiliation, Nicole left with interest.
"It really makes me feel sorry to see you with Shi Yi for a few years. She is also sitting with Cruise." Newhouse looked at the departing Nicole with a meaningful smile. Adrian shrugged and made a gesture to speak,
"I heard that your M record company has had a problem recently. Is that so?" Q! .
