Vol 2 Chapter 502: Sleepless tonight


In the past ten minutes, Roger Albert didn’t know how he got over it. He almost exhausted all his energy to control the thought of jumping over and smashing the big screen opposite, and sitting calmly in front of the live camera. .
But he didn't speak anymore, letting his partner Rope say there alone.
Luo Pei is a very competent host, who constantly uses words to arouse the audience's interest and guide them to continue to pay attention to this awards ceremony.
The number of viewers is directly related to the advertising expenses of his abc TV station in the next Oscars.
Roger Albert next to him is a bit different, but Rope doesn't have the time and energy to take care of him. Duke Rosenberg in the Kodak Theater is far more important than him and more related to his job.
"Just as everyone expected, Duke Rosenberg won the best director of this year's Oscar. It deserves it, and it can be called the return of the king..."
Hearing his partner's constant praise, Roger Albert had the urge to take off his shoes and put it in his partner's mouth.
Fortunately, Rope didn't say a few words, so he stopped, because the best picture awards were about to begin!
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have Steven Spielberg next."
~, Billy Christo retreated to the corner of the stage, Spielberg quickly walked to the microphone, the old Jewish man will present the best film!
"People always say that there is a reason to save the best film until the end. It is the sum of all film elements, and the end of a journey always starts with a dream..."
The old man didn't seem to want people to wait. He spoke very fast, "This year, these dreams are inspired by the Lord of the Rings trilogy based on Tolkien's novels, and there are spectacular novels based on Aubrey and Matulin... "
The string of words was finished by a few short sentences, and then introduced. "The following are the best film finalists-"Lost in Tokyo", Ross Katz and Sophia Coppola; "The Pentium Age" Catherine Kennedy and Frank Marshall; "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" Charles Rowan With Duke Rosenberg; Clint Eastwood and Robert Lorenz in "The River of Mystery"; Harvey Weinstein and Du Kan Henderson in "The Raging Sea"."
Spielberg opened the envelope and read the answer without any surprises, "The winners are Charles Rowan and Duke Rosenberg in "The Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King"!"
Because the live TV was switched to the Kodak Theater, the atmosphere in the abc's live studio was slightly relaxed, but this did not include Roger Albert. The famous film critic stared straight at the big screen opposite, looking like a deformed goldfish.
In the live broadcast room, some people were repairing makeup, some were checking the equipment, and they were all preparing for the live comment after the award ceremony.
Roger Albert's face became more and more red, and the blue veins on his forehead were beating rapidly at a small amplitude and high frequency. He faintly heard a lot of discussions.
"One Oscar, twelve statuettes, Duke Rosenberg set a record!"
"So many people looked down on him before. Now there is nothing to say."
Rope next to him is also seizing the time to read the next stage of the line. This is a plan live broadcast by abc TV. That is to say, abc TV also thinks that Duke Rosenberg and "The Return of the King" will win big at the award ceremony. Win.
"The king is coming to Oscar, Duke Rosenberg's twelve-year journey to the gods..."
Hearing Rope's low reading voice, Roger Albert suddenly had an idea that they are all traitors! The world betrayed him!
ABC Television, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Media and the Public. All are shameful traitors!
The anger that Roger Albert suppressed in his heart all exploded at this moment. The face of the veteran film critic was as if he was drunk, and the red one seemed to bleed.
In the next moment, Roger Albert also had a drunken feeling of dizziness. The person opposite him suddenly became two, and their figures became increasingly blurred. Even if they are less than four feet apart, they can't see each other's faces...
At the same time, there was a strange noise in Roger Albert's head, something seemed to be broken, and his blurred vision suddenly turned into darkness. The whole person crooked to the side.
"Mr. Albert!"
This is the last sentence Roger Albert heard tonight, "Call the doctor, call the emergency call!"
In the Kodak Theater, Duke stepped onto the stage again. He looked at the place where the cast of the Lord of the Rings was sitting, and frequently waved to the members of the team, indicating that they were all coming up. After Charles Rowan stood up, he was doing the same job. .
According to Oscars, there are only two producers who accept the award on behalf of the crew, but the award for the best film is neither the director nor a certain producer, but everyone who participated in the film production process!
This is a team award!
Why does this award always appear as the finale? Because movies are never the result of one person's hard work, but the fruit of a large team working together!
Charles Rowan, Anna Prinz, Hannah Serena, John Schwarzman, Mike Dawson, Ilya Wood, Vigo Mortensen, Orlando Bloom, Billy More than a dozen crew members including Boyd and Ian McLean all stepped onto the stage to receive the award!
Although the film did not get any performance awards or even a performance award nomination, this is the honor everyone deserves!
Everyone contributed to the success of these trilogy during the shooting process!
The two Golden Men representing the best films were handed over to Duke and Charles Rowan by Spielberg. Duke just said "Thank you everyone" and gave up the position to Charles Rowan. .
"It's a great honor to stand here. I entered this business 35 years ago, starting with sending coffee to the director."
This veteran producer is not lacking in humor. He deliberately glanced at Duke, then turned to the host tonight, "I think I dated Billy Christo’s cousin many years ago. Made me award today..."
There were bursts of laughter in the theater, and Charles Rowan obviously knew better at mobilizing the atmosphere than Duke, who had basically no humor.
On the other side, Billy Christo was quite cooperative, shrugging his shoulders and making a very innocent expression.
At the end of the joke time, Charles Rowan continued, "I am very happy to be able to work in an excellent team. I am very happy to work with such an outstanding director as Duke and to be nominated together with four other films, and after so many years, finally Winning the prize is a pleasant surprise for all of us."
"I want to thank all the actors and people behind the camera for this film. I want to especially thank my partners Warner Bros. and Duke Studios. My beautiful daughter Danielle and my 87-year-old father are waiting behind We celebrate together. I want to thank Tolkien and the fans who supported us, as well as Doug Walter and Jeff Robinoff, for their efforts to enable us to make this film."
He turned his head to look at Duke, "In the end, it is Duke Rosenberg's director. He has never been 100% satisfied. He is always pursuing 110%. He gives us all inspiration and does his best. Try your best to shoot these movies and put them on the screen!"
The awards ceremony came to the end, the door to the backstage was opened, all the winners who got the figurines walked on the stage tonight, and the 76th Oscars ceremony came to an end.
The award ceremony is over, but for Duke winners, the Oscar is far from over. From the backstage, he has become the target of the media and reporters to chase and block, and the limelight of one person even overwhelmed Sean. Pan and Charlize Theron are two people.
Duke knows very well, and no wonder these reporters are so excited. Past best directors and best film winners often face an embarrassing problem. They are indeed awarded, but the real influence of the winning works is not great.
The Lord of the Rings trilogy is different. The global box office of "The Fellowship of the Ring", "The Two Towers" and "The Return of the King" has exceeded 4 billion U.S. dollars. Not only is the Oscar winning, it is also a record. Twelve statuettes.
How could the person who created this miracle be not welcomed by the media?
Not to mention the relatively slow response speed of the traditional media, the relevant comments on the Internet had already started at the moment when the award ceremony ended.
Norman Miller turned off the TV, focused all his energy on the Internet, and quickly typed out a sentence with his instant sharing account.
"Great! Great victory! Congratulations Duke, congratulations to the Lord of the Rings Trilogy!"
Then, he entered the homepage of the instant sharing website, where almost swiped by comments related to Oscars.
"Twelve years of waiting, Duke ushered in the greatest victory!"
"This is a great feat that can be compared with "Titanic" and James Cameron!"
"Twelve nominations, twelve statuettes, a 100% winning rate, besides our Duke Rosenberg, who else can do it?"
"Celebrate, guys! Celebrate our Lord of the Rings, and toast to our favorite Duke! No sleep tonight, no drunk tonight, no one will sleep tonight!"
Turn off the computer, Norman Miller put on a coat and rushed to the movie-themed bar nearest home. He wants to join the carnival until dawn!
To many people, this is indeed a sleepless night.
The emergency room of the University of California School of Medicine was pushed aside, and a doctor strode out, and Roger Albert's agent hurried to greet him.
"Mr. Albert is out of danger."
Hearing these words, the agent was relieved, but the doctor then said, "In view of Mr. Albert's physical condition, I personally suggest not to work again in the short term, it is best..."
He hesitated a little, and said, "It's best to retire, find a quiet place, keep the mood calm, and have a long rest." (To be continued...)
