American Fame and Fortune Chapter 651

Chapter 651 Three bastards, five Oscars

At the end of February, Hollywood's annual event, the Oscars, kicked off.

The focus of this session is naturally on Leonardo, and all the media are frantically reporting on whether Leonardo, who is pursuing the Oscar statuette, can get his wish.

The former handsome guy Jack, for the sake of performing arts, did not hesitate to destroy his own image in reality. He turned into a greasy middle-aged uncle and was abandoned by more than a dozen girlfriends. It was really not easy.

 “If Leo wins the award, I will sincerely wish him the best!”

When Martin walked into the media area, he happened to hear the red carpet host Maria interviewing Nicholson. The old man was wearing a suit and sunglasses, and he was quite cool.

His voice suddenly became stern: "If Leo cannot win the award, I will set up a separate training class for him and conduct hell-style special training."

Maria saw Martin approaching after being reminded by the director, and quickly pulled him over and asked: "Martin, if Leo wins the award, how will the three of you celebrate."

This question is obviously flawed. Martin will never open the champagne at halftime. He said seriously: "The results have not been released yet, and everything is still uncertain. I will answer your question in five hours."

 Martin and Nicholson are relatively low-key, helping their best friends to build their reputations.

Suddenly, Bruce took two steps forward and blocked Martin's side.

 Martin reacted very quickly, without even thinking, and pulled Nicholson behind him.

Diagonally opposite, Christian Bale had just finished an interview with another red carpet host, Robin Roberts, when he turned around and saw Martin.

After the filming of "The Dark Knight" ended, he received psychological treatment, and all the painful memories were suppressed by the newly built psychological defense line.

Seeing Martin, Bell thought of his divorced wife, broken family, torn corpus cavernosum, etc.

At this moment, Martin's appearance suddenly changed in his eyes. His face was automatically covered with white paint, and his blood-red mouth was pulled up to his ears.

Bell's voice became thicker unconsciously, like Bruce Wayne with a voice changer: "There is a thing called justice..."

 Martin put his hands into his trouser pockets and just looked at Bell quietly.

Bell walked towards this side: "It can make me shine, or it can make me burn!"

 All the people and movements around him stopped, and all their eyes turned to Bell, thinking that he was crazy.

 Martin said nothing, did nothing, and waited for Bell to make a move.

If Bell takes action against him here, it will be tantamount to severing himself from the Oscars and the Academy.

 Michael Caine squeezed out from the crowd and hugged Bale. The old man persuaded Bale in a low voice: "Don't go crazy, come with me, come with me quickly!"

Kate Winslet came from the other side and pulled Martin: "Entering the theater."

Martin glanced at Nicholson and followed Kate.

Nicholson originally planned to persuade Martin to leave at the critical moment: "Let's go, it won't do you any good if we get into a fight. After all, the Oscar is the face of the Academy."

 The three of them entered the Kodak Theater one after another. Kate said to Martin: "You are so aggressive."

 Martin was very innocent: "I didn't do anything today, I just encountered it suddenly."

"There's something wrong with him." Kate pointed to her head: "Don't care about him."

After all, the two have been in and out of relationships many times. Of course, Martin will not have any objection to Kate because of such a trivial matter. He said: "I am an easy-going person and not aggressive at all. Who in the circle doesn't know this?"

Nicholson added: "Our trio has a very good reputation. No one can give us a compliment."

 Single Leonardo was waiting in front. After the group met, they passed through the guest entrance and entered the hall.

 The Oscars have always respected the old and favored the young. Nicholson's seat is in the front row, the crew of "Shutter Island" where Leonardo is on is on the left, and the crews of the two films starring Martin are on the right.

The three of them separated and went to find their seats.

 Martin came to the second row on the right, shook hands with Nolan and David Fincher, and wished them good luck tonight.

That's what they said, but they all knew that it was impossible to win the Best Director trophy tonight.

 The Directors Guild's Best Director Award was awarded to David Russell, the director of "The Fighter".

Nolan, the director who is famous for his superhero movies, still has a long road to Oscar.

"Gone Girl" is not correct enough, and David Fincher himself is not the type of director who is very popular with the academy.

Martin said hello to the other people in the crew one by one. As soon as he sat down in his seat, a person came from behind and lay on the back of the empty seat next to him.

Saoirse Ronan has grown taller: "Teacher, long time no see."

 Martin turned his head to look at the trouble-making girl and asked, "Why did your face suddenly become bigger?"

Saoirse rubbed her cheek: "I am also very troubled. After entering the period of rapid growth, it became like this, and the whole body grew wildly."

Martin took a quick look and said, "He has grown a lot taller."

Saoirse suddenly looked into the distance with hatred in her eyes: "She laughed at me at the British Academy Awards and the other two times, saying that I had grown into a defective product."

"Who?" Martin asked, and at the same time he thought about it, turned around and saw that it was indeed Emma Watson.

Saoirse said: "She said I was aging prematurely, that I was a disabled child star, and that I looked like an old woman in her forties."

　　Martin rambled casually: "Being disabled is an irresistible fate for child stars."

Saoirse almost cried when she said this.

Martin is not a good guy either. He is essentially the same as Nicholson. He does not cause trouble and makes people uncomfortable. He added: "Next time you meet Emma Watson, you laugh at her for having a shoehorned face. ” ˆ ˜ Saoirse couldn't understand the last word at all.

 Martin gestured with his hand: "Ugly crescent face."

Saoirse understood this time: "I understand, thank you teacher for teaching me, let's see if I can find an opportunity tonight, I want to fight back!"

She asked specifically: "Teacher, did you bring any firecrackers?"

 Martin asked: "What do you want this for?"

Saoirse learned a lot from Martin: "I would keep watching her, and when she went to the bathroom, I would go to the partition next to her and throw firecrackers into her!"

"It's a pity that Oscar doesn't allow pets." She obviously became a mortal enemy of Emma Watson: "How about borrowing other people's pet feces, wrapping it with firecrackers, and throwing it to Emma to satisfy the hatred!"

 Martin wasn't going to mess around with her: “I don't have one here, you'd better wait until next time.”

Charlize Theron arrived at this time, her seat was next to Martin, and Saoirse Ronan quickly stepped back.

Turning to look at Saoirse, Charlize sat down and whispered: "You have so many hobbies, not as specific as Leonardo."

 Martin shook his head: "I am very dedicated and only like beautiful things."

 Charlize asked instead: "You have been robbed of film projects one after another. Are you very depressed recently? I remember that Elizabeth is on a business trip. Come to my place in the evening and I can help you relieve your depression?"

 Martin said: "It depends on the situation. If Leo can't win the award, I will go find you."

As the Kodak Theater was full, the awards ceremony officially began.

Although the Academy claims to be comprehensively reformed, the Oscars still have the same tone and melody as before. Too many links before the awards are nostalgic. Not to mention the young audience who make up the majority of movie fans, even actors born in the 1980s like Martin were drowsy. .

There are so many people and things they miss that they simply don't know about and have no interest in understanding.

 In addition, as the host, James Franco's performance was not normal, and Anne Hathaway seemed to be preoccupied, and her performance was also a disaster. There was almost no chemistry between the two hosts.

Charlize covered her mouth and whispered to Martin: "James Franco seems to be high."

 Martin feels the same way.

Finally, someone came over to remind Martin that it was time to go backstage to prepare the award for Best Actor.

 Martin entered the passage next to him, just as Nicholson came over, and the two went backstage together.

After entering the backstage, the director handed the word string card to Martin, the golden envelope to Nicholson, and gave a few more instructions.

Martin glanced at the string of words, clasped it over and held it in his hand.

　　After the previous host came to an end, Anne Hathaway returned to the backstage. She saw Martin at a glance. Since she didn't need to touch up her makeup for the time being, she came over specifically.

Nicholson reminded Martin: "Your old lover is here."

 Martin saw it.

 Anne came to Martin: "Long time no see."

 Martin looked like a scumbag: "Annie, are you okay?"

"Not very good." Anne said directly: "Can we find a time to chat tonight?"

 Martin thought for a moment: “I'll go to the Oscar night party.”

 On the stage in front, there was a reminder that the Best Actor was about to be awarded.

 Martin walked forward first.

Nicholson, the old bastard, said something specifically before following up: "If you want to win back Martin's heart, find someone to get engaged to or get married to."

When these words fell into her ears, Anne was stunned. After she got married or engaged, how could it be possible to win back Martin?

 No wonder people say Jack Nicholson is crazy.

 Martin and Nicholson stood in front of microphones on stage.

 The discussion below is not loud, because after the Screen Actors Guild Awards came out, the ownership of the major awards was basically determined.

“Jack, you and I, and another idiot, are known in Hollywood as the Iron Triangle.” In such a formal situation, it is impossible for Martin to call himself a trio of jerks.

He said: "People often ask me, how many Oscars have your Audio-Technica team won in total?"

Nicholson replied: "Of course four!"

Martin asked: "But they always ask me, do you all have one? And then I can't answer."

“Because we have to look after the **** who don't have Oscars,” Nicholson said.

 The guests and the audience burst into laughter. Of course they understood who Martin and Nicholson were talking about.

The main camera also turned to Leonardo, taking a close-up of him.

Nicholson introduced the nominees and opened the envelopes directly for Martin to read.

 Martin read: "The winner of the Best Actor is Leonardo DiCaprio!"
