As a candidate for the best actor to participate in the Oscar with his family, what a great thing is that he always has some regrets in his heart, as well as his family.
Because the magical director with a bright smile was absent, the reason was that he was imprisoned on the Lake Island prison in New York for four days.
"Dad, is there a TV in prison?" Terry Smith, who was dressed and handsome, suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at Will, and asked with a look of interest: "Can Yang see the Oscars tonight? Should it? have it?"
Will Smith and Jada smiled at each other, although they both knew that the prison had TV, but Wang Yang certainly could n’t see Oscar tonight, but Will patted his son ’s shoulder and smiled, "Man, he will watch He arrived.

This performance of" When Happiness Comes Knocking on the Door "brought him not only this Oscar nomination, not just a rebirth, but also a continuous acting career; and His self-confidence and his dignity were all saved, and those days of self-doubt were not easy.
And his relationship with Terry has also gotten a lot closer. Only then did he understand some of his son's thoughts and ideas and become a better father. Will shook his head with a smile, Yang was a good person, he shouldn't be in jail, would he?
Thinking of this, the front driver, assistant, and others all reminded that "coming soon", the Smith family immediately packed up and happily prepared for the next red carpet catwalk.

This year's 73rd Oscar is still held at the Xuelan Theater. This will also be the last time. The Oscar will start the newly built Kodak Theater next year. For this reason, the work of the organizers has been very hard this year, and the guests are also very face-saving. The invited more than 2,800 celebrities will attend, and the absentee rate has been the lowest in the past years, so the walk of the Star Walkway compared with last year It was unveiled 30 minutes in advance, and the number of people participating in the red carpet show will be the highest in the past years. This year's Oscar is very grand.
Among those who are absent, the person most concerned by the media is naturally the magical Baby Director Wang Yang, but this is no big deal. Oscar will never lack focus, people and news that can be followed. It can be said that any one is in 2800 In front of the famous superstars and stars, all is just a quicksand.
The red carpet outside the Xuelan Theater is full of voices. There are bright stars in suits and dresses, media reporters holding cameras and video cameras, staff, and other people. The stars laugh and laugh and show their beauty. One side of women's winter coat m in Taobao Mall.
Natalie was wearing a black off-the-shoulder dress with a faint smile on her face, but her heart was full of hollowness. She thought it was a day worth remembering, and every time she thought about it, she would be very happy, even if she looked at the guy and his girlfriend dangling sweetly and intimately in front of her eyes, and hugged and kissed ... she could bear it all But now, those two people can't see it, and all of them seem so noisy in front of them.
She really wanted to go back to New York now to prepare for tomorrow's visit day. Anyway, she couldn't take the best heroine tonight. But whether it is for personal image considerations among the fans and the Oscar jury; or for the fame of "Juneau" and the flame movie, she needs to stay here until the end of the awards ceremony and Oscar night, which is really annoying
"Halona Tari, we have found you." The live interview reporter of the broadcaster TV came with a smile. She was a middle-aged white woman, holding a microphone, followed by a photographer with a camera behind her. Not only the tidbits before the national live broadcast at night, viewers in more than 100 countries around the world will see this video will be passed on forever.
Natalie looked at her and smiled: "Hi" blonde female reporter pointed the microphone at her and smiled and asked, "How is your mood now?" Natalie smiled gracefully with her hair hanging from her ears. : "This is not the first time I have participated in an Oscar, but this time it is definitely the most exciting. But on the other hand, you know that my friend, Wang Yang, the director of" Juneau "can't come, this is really bad, I I think he should be here. "
In a serviced apartment in Manhattan, New York, with a beep, Jessica sitting on the sofa turned on the LCD TV. She took the remote control and tuned to the channel. The pretty face without a little makeup looked very haggard, hanging two faint Dark circles, eyes are lonely.
On the TV screen, the Academy Awards ceremony was playing. After introducing the video at the beginning of a space, the model of the host Steve Martin fell into the earth, and the screen was transferred to the auditorium of the Shenlan Theater. The wide hall was full of seats. In the thunderous applause, Steve Martin in a black suit walked to the center of the stage and said, "Thank you, thank you everyone." Behind him stood a huge Oscar gold man. statue.
"We live in a beautiful country. If we were in Afghanistan, this statue would have been blown up." Steve Martin pointedly pointed at the statue behind him, and there was a burst of laughter at the scene. Jessica's face was expressionless and she couldn't laugh at all. She asked softly, "What's interesting?"
Steve Martin held his hands and continued, "In January, they asked me if I wanted to be the host of this party. What I was most concerned about was whether I had enough time to recover after pulling my face?" There was laughter again, and Steve Martin made a hand gesture and said, "Thanks to the Astronauts. In any case, the introduction clip at the beginning cost the government $ 1 trillion. Do n’t expect tax cuts because it ’s because I want a wonderful introduction. "The audience laughed again.
"Astronauts are watching us in the 200-mile sky, and now 800 million people are watching TV all over the world. Everyone has an idea that we are all gay." Steve Martin's tone continued to be serious, the hall Li laughed loudly. After a few words, he added: "Kate Hudson is 21 years old (" Almost Fame ", nominated for Best Supporting Actress), and Natalie Portman is 19 years old."
At this time, the live broadcast was switched to Kate Hudson and Natalie Portman, and Kate smiled with open mouth, and Natalie kept a cloudly smile. In the applause of the scene, Steve Martin spread his hand and said: "I like young actors very much, because they remind me of me, I'm going to die."
The scene on the screen sounded unexpectedly loud laughter. Hearing the word "ung", Jessica felt tight. He should be wearing a handsome suit and sitting there accepting the joke of the host rather than a prison uniform ... she leaned on the sofa and stared at the TV in amazement On the screen, a heart has flew to Reyk Island, muttering: "Yang ..."
In the small cell of Lake Island Prison, Wang Yang was doing push-ups on the floor beside the bed. Sweat fell from his forehead ticking, meditating, "121, 122 ..."
Robert Downey Jr., who was lying on the lower bed, glanced sideways. He lost his wrench wrist so thoroughly that he no longer feels strange. The guy on the ground punches every morning and then lies at his desk all day long. Write something, do push-ups, sit-ups when you are bored ... like now at least three hundred are done this time, with vigorous energy like a cow.
"Hey, Young." Downey was also a little bored, and he sideways supported his head and asked in a chatter: "I saw in the newspaper that your" Juneau "was shortlisted for the best original script, I was thinking if you have to What happens when the prize is won? "
Winning? Wang Yang lay on the ground and stopped, thinking gaspingly, said: "I don't think it's possible. Is the Oscar jury awarded to a young man?" The result has nothing to do with his imprisonment. Sometimes these off-site factors are considered, but as early as mid-February, six thousand judges mailed the final ballots unless they can predict the future.
However, the shortlisted movie scripts include "Almost Fame", "Never Compromise", etc. Although the predictions of the media are very balanced, he does not have too many ideas, because the style of the Oscar judges is notoriously conservative; but another On the one hand, he also knew that the Oscars of the past two years had begun to intentionally make innovations and changes. One of them was to face up to the outstanding works of blacks and Chinese Americans, like this year's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won the second place; next year Denzel-Washington became The first black film actor, maybe Will will take the lead this year.
So despite his low hopes, he routinely prepared a speech on behalf of Ms. Bedes-Bill on the phone to receive the award yesterday. He smiled and frowned, should not be used. ? Whatever it is
"Maybe they will." Robert Downey Jr. pouted his lips, took out an unlit cigarette, and sucked the smell of smoke. He seemed to say with emotion: "Man, the times are different."
The Snowland Theater in Los Angeles, halfway through the party, presented the best original song ("Miracle Kid"), the best art director / prop set ("Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"), and the best original soundtrack ("Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon") 》) Various technical and later awards gradually came to the highlight. The first is the two screenwriter awards. The best adapted script was won by the

"In the guest seat under the stage, the Will Smith family became focused; Natalie not far away finally changed his expression, a calm face without a smile , But she was very nervous.
"There are five nominees, William Nicholson," Gladiator "; Susannah Grant," Never Compromise "; Wang Yang," Juneau. "Hearing the name and the applause from the scene, the sofa The Jessica on the body suddenly felt excited and recovered. This was the prize for the competition. She sat upright and looked at the TV screen. I saw Angelina-Julie in a white suit continued to read: "Lee Hall," Dancing Life "; Cameron Crowe," Almost Fame. "The crowd was applauded again.
Natalie clapped hard, her eyes fixed on Angelina on the stage, watching her open the white envelope, only to feel her heart beating faster and faster ...
"Well, the winner is ..." Angelina glanced at the results in the letter and looked at the nearly 3,000 guests off the stage. She smiled: "He is an amazing guy. What I like most about him is that He loves and supports child protection. He is a hero. He saved a cute little girl ... "
Everyone on the stage knew who it was, and applauded with applause; Natalie waved her fist secretly, her face full of bright smiles, and her heart was filled with joy: "Yang is that guy" she suddenly Being aware of your current psychology, unprecedented before, feeling so happy for a person, is this like and care? Angelina on the stage announced with a smile: "Wang Yang," Junuo "" With her words, the large screen behind her showed Wang Yang's photo and name.
"Oh, my God," Jessica jumped up from the sofa in exultation, and whispered, "Yang, Yang, you won the prize, you get the Oscar, God, Yang ..." She stopped suddenly Come down and look around. Where will there be that familiar figure? Hugging and kissing with excitement ... She sighed and sat down on the sofa with a smile.
There was a warm applause at the Xuelan Theater, and almost everyone knew what was happening now. The magic boy was in jail in New York and could not receive the prize in person; it was obviously impossible to get a telephone connection, but fortunately there was a substitute By. Amidst applause, Ms. Bedes-Bill, who received the award on behalf of Wang Yang, took the stage. She smiled and took the little golden man from Angelina, holding a piece of paper and smiling at the microphone. Tao: "Thank you all, everyone knows that he can't come in person. I now read his acceptance speech."
Everyone on the stage was suddenly quiet. Will Smith's family, Natalie ... and Jessica, Rachel, Joshua, Michael Pitt in front of the TV ... and all the 800 million people watching The viewers on the broadcast are all ready to listen to his testimony.
Bedes-Bill looked at the note and said, "I actually won the prize? Is this a kind of compensation?" Everyone chuckled softly, and she continued: "OK, then thank Santa, Thanks to Lake Island, who brought me luck, and to the Oscar judges. "Everyone laughed again, and heard Bedis say," And the next thing to thank, they are not a ruthless synonym. "The people laughed with applause.
"First of all thank you for a sweet synonym, my fans, thank you for your support; a great synonym, family father, mother, grandparents ... you are always so good, I love you" in the applause, Bei Dess Bill said quickly: "Thank you my friends, my colleagues, you are not famous, you are so cute, especially thanks to Natalie Portman, she provided this script A lot of inspiration and creativity; her understanding of Juno also in turn affected the script, she is a monster. "
Everyone laughed and clapped again, and the broadcast lens was also aimed at Natalie, but she smiled happily and clapped her palms.
"I know this will definitely be a gossip, so I will clarify now that there is no such thing. The last thing I want to thank is an angel, my girlfriend Jessica, I don't want to say much, sweetheart, I love you" Bay When Days said here, the cries and applause in the synagogue boiled again. Natalie's smile turned into a smile. She applauded gently and murmured depressedly in her heart: "Why not me? Just because Does she know you earlier than me? "
"Thanks for finishing, but I have to say a word to them, sorry, let you worry about the last ..." Bedes-Bill held the little gold man, looked at the few lines of text on the end of the note, and said: "I still want to quote In a word, you can kill me, but you can't beat me. THE-END, thank you. "
Jessica wiped tears from the corners of her eyes with a tissue, UU reading books www.uukanshu. With a sweet smile, com said with a choked voice, "I love you too." Looking at Bedais walking down the stage from the screen, she suddenly had an unstoppable miss in her heart, and wanted to hear the voice and watch To that face. She couldn't help but pick up the phone on the front coffee table and dialed that number, but no miracle happened, only the icy system sound over and over: "Sorry, the user you dialed has been turned off ..."
She sighed frowningly, why wasn't that voice: "Hi, sweetheart" She stood up and walked to the balcony, looking at the dark night sky outside, and the night city underneath, and Lake Island was not Far north ... she leaned on the balcony railing, picked up her phone and typed a text message and sent it to the night of the past: "I love you." After a while, she sent a smile to the night of the past: "I miss you very much "She knew it didn't make sense, but she sent again:" Can you reply to me? "," What are you doing? "...
"Magic Young, who do you think will be the best actor of this year? Tom Hanks? Russell Crowe? Will Smith?"
