It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?
Chapter 1131 The old lady is 61 years old this year, how can she withstand a beating?
Chapter 1131 The old lady is 61 years old this year, how can she withstand a beating?
The night breeze in Los Angeles in March, carrying the saltiness of the Pacific Ocean, slowly blew to the holy place of Hollywood, the Dolby Theatre.
With the arrival of the 90th Academy Awards ceremony, the eyes of the world are focused on this star-studded stage.
The red carpet area outside the award ceremony has suddenly become a star-studded area.
Outside the venue, in addition to the American Broadcasting Corporation (ABC channel) broadcasting live, domestic movie channels were also broadcasting live.
"Hello, dear audience friends in China, good evening... As you can see, the Oscar red carpet ceremony is being held as scheduled. Coming towards us now are Christopher Nolan and the crew of the movie 'Dunkirk'..."
As time passed, more and more top Hollywood stars walked onto the red carpet and entered the venue amid warm cheers from both sides of the red carpet.
However, compared to paying attention to these foreigners, domestic netizens who are watching the live broadcast and people working in the film and television industry are all looking forward to Chen Fei's appearance.
"It's been more than half an hour. Why hasn't Chen Fei shown up yet?"
Liu Yifei was a little agitated. She couldn't wait to see her husband, but he was nowhere to be seen.
Liu Xiaoli comforted him, "Don't panic. The real big names always appear at the end. You know that, right?"
"Oh, that's right! Hehe, my husband is a big shot, so he must be the last to appear."
Liu Yifei's worry turned into joy in an instant and she was in a good mood.
Shu Chang, Han Jianu and Jing Tian, who were sitting on the other side of the sofa, couldn't help but roll their eyes.
"Oh, your husband is good at everything."
Xiao Han made a vomiting face, but it did not affect Liu Yifei. Instead, she looked at him proudly, "Humph, my husband is just great."
"Look! Here he comes! It's Brother Chen Fei!"
Suddenly, Jing Tian's exclamation rang out in the living room.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads and looked at the TV screen.
Chen Fei's team has a very strong lineup this time, including Matt Damon, Kate Winslet, Leonardo Dicaprio, Timothée Chalamet...
Looking around, except for a few young actors, the rest are Oscar-winning actors and actresses.
Even Matthew McConaughey is in it!
Although he only had a cameo appearance in the movie for a few minutes, he did a great job in holding the scene.
As expected, the moment they stepped onto the red carpet, the scene suddenly erupted into extremely warm cheers!
Chen Fei walked forward with big strides, a confident smile on his face, while stroking a small bronze compass with his fingertips.
This navigation instrument made in Britain in 1898 has lost its direction, but tonight it carries heavier expectations than the magnetic pole.
Because this compass was picked up by Chen Fei on the beach when he was filming in a small town in Manchester.
He thought that the compass must be a lucky charm for "Manchester by the Sea", so he kept it and brought it to the Oscars ceremony today.
"Fei! I love you!"
Outside the venue, enthusiastic fans expressed their deep love to Chen Fei.
He smiled and said, "If it was a few years ago, I would have said 'I love you', but now I feel embarrassed because I already have my beloved wife."
There was a burst of laughter at the scene.
In Hollywood, the character of a family-oriented husband has always been the best character to win fans.
Chen Fei had always been quite interested in this character, and now he had officially gotten involved.
However, what he didn't know was that because of this sentence, Liu Yifei, who was watching the live broadcast, suddenly jumped up on the sofa with joy!
"Hey, auntie, take it easy!"
Liu Xiaoli suddenly panicked and quickly put out her hands to block her, fearing that she would fall.
"He is confessing his love to me!" Although her mother suppressed her emotion, Liu Yifei still couldn't hide her excitement.
But this time, Han Jianu didn't make a face.
"I'm so envious! How great would it be if my future husband was half as good as my senior brother?"
"Hehe! My husband is one of a kind."
Liu Yifei raised her head proudly.
...
"The person walking towards us now is Chinese film and television director Chen Fei. The film he is bringing to the awards today is called Manchester by the Sea. This is a film about life, coldness, silence, and depression. It is one of the strongest contenders for this year's Oscars..."
Red carpet host Ryan Seacrest introduced Chen Fei excitedly, looking like a little fan of Chen Fei.
This scene made Chen Kai, who was watching the live broadcast, unable to hide his envy.
You know, he has been to Hollywood many times before and participated in several Golden Globe Awards and Oscars ceremonies.
But when he appeared on the stage, the red carpet host never introduced his resume like he introduced Chen Fei.
The most embarrassing thing is that, up to now, in the impression of foreign filmmakers and audiences, he is still the director of "Farewell My Concubine".
It seems that apart from this movie, he has no other representative works.
"Humph! Sooner or later, I will recreate and even surpass the glory of "Farewell My Concubine"!"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Hong beside him immediately acted as a supporting role: "I believe in you, you can definitely do it."
At the same time, Chen Feiyu, who was sitting upright on the other side of the sofa, nodded hurriedly and said, "I also believe that father can do it."
Although Brother Chen Kai enjoyed the praise and recognition from his wife and son, his personality determined that he was unable to give positive feedback to his family.
"Arthur? After Ever Night wrapped up, have you approached other film and TV projects?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Feiyu straightened his back and said, "Father, I am working on the latest TV drama project "Celebrating Yu Nian" announced by Feiyue Films. The original novel of this drama and "Ever Night" are from the same school, and both are very good quality projects."
"Okay." Brother Chen Kai nodded slightly: "I wish you success."
"Yes, I will try my best, father."
The question and answer between the father and son seemed like a set program.
Chen Hong, who was standing by, waited until the two of them finished their conversation before speaking out, "I'm currently helping Feiyu negotiate a youth campus-themed movie, adapted from the novel The Best of Us.
The TV series that was released earlier was very successful, and now the movie version is also in the works. If Feiyu can play the leading male role, it will undoubtedly be a good choice.”
"Yeah, you decide."
Since the couple has already decided to support their son, they naturally won't be as stingy as they would with outsiders.
"There is also a role suitable for Feiyu in the project I'm working on now, My Country and Me. You can just come over when the time comes. You don't have to go out of your way to audition."
Chen Feiyu couldn't hide his joy when he heard this!
Although the family environment he grew up in made him feel very depressed, it was not until he entered the entertainment industry that he realized how great it was to be a "top second-generation star"!
Those big names, bosses, drama tyrants, etc., are more docile than each other when facing him, which makes him more and more comfortable in the circle.
……
At this moment, clips from many nominated films were flashing on the big screen of the Dolby Theatre.
The award ceremony host, Jimmy Kimmel, made witty remarks and caused laughter from time to time.
The Oscar for Best Actress is about to be awarded.
Prior to this, Manchester by the Sea had already won a series of awards including Best Sound Effects, Best Sound Editing, and Best Film Editing. Correspondingly, The Shape of Water won awards such as Best Art Direction and Best Original Score.
By now, the hundreds of people attending the Oscars already have a rough guess in their minds.
If nothing unexpected happens, the Oscar for this year will probably be chosen from "The Shape of Water" and "Manchester by the Sea".
As for "Call Me by Your Name" and "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri", which had previously been highly favored to win awards, they have now been "sentenced to death" by everyone because they did not win any of the preliminary awards.
It’s actually quite normal if you think about it. “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri” and “The Shape of Water” are both films produced by Fox Searchlight. How could they be rivals?
As for "Call Me by Your Name", after it won the Best Adapted Screenplay Award, it has completely lost the chance of winning any major awards.
There is no way around it. The Oscars ceremony has now developed to the point where it almost entirely relies on public relations to win.
The investor of "Call Me by Your Name" is an unknown independent production company. How could it possibly afford such huge public relations fees?
"The winner of the 82nd Academy Awards for Best Actress is..."
As the presenter spoke, the Dolby Theatre suddenly fell silent.
"Francis Monkdormond, Three Billboards!"
Applause broke out. Francis, who is 61 years old this year, is from Chicago and graduated from Yale University. She won the Best Actress Award at the 69th Academy Awards for her role in the thriller film "Fargo", stood up and hugged her friends around her warmly.
On the set of "Manchester by the Sea", although Kate Winslet was also applauding politely, her mood had already fallen to the bottom.
Leonardo DiCaprio, a good friend standing by, consoled her thoughtfully, "Don't be too sad. The 'women's rights movement' is booming right now, and Three Billboards fits this political element. It's normal that you lost to her. Your acting skills are obvious to all, there's no doubt about that!"
After these words were spoken, Kate Winslet felt much better.
But at this moment, Fade Chen and Matt Damon, who were sitting on the left and right sides, turned their heads and looked at Leonardo in surprise.
You know, this guy usually plays the role of a "bad friend", why did he suddenly change his personality this time? He even comforted Kate Winslet, which doesn't seem like his usual style?
Sure enough, the next second, Leo's true colors were revealed.
He lowered his voice and suggested quietly: "If you are very upset, I can go and find out where Frances is, and we can find an opportunity to beat her up. What do you think?"
Kate Winslet: "..."
Can you please stop being so outrageous, bro?
The old lady is 61 years old this year, how can she withstand a beating?
If this guy gets beaten up, won't public opinion in Hollywood explode?
On a dark and windy night, Leonardo DiCaprio, the 88th Oscar winner, and Kate Winslet, the 81st Oscar winner, beat up Frances Monkdormond, the 90th Oscar winner...
Listen, how outrageous is this?
While a few people were chatting, Frances Monkdormond had finished her acceptance speech and returned to her seat holding the Oscar for Best Actress.
The next award to be presented is the Best Actor Award.
When presenters Jane Fonda and Helen Mirren walked onto the stage, Matt Damon instantly became nervous!
"Brother! It's your turn!"
Leonardo started to act funny again, muttering in Matt Damon's ear: "If you win the award this time, you must open the most expensive bottle of red wine in your wine cellar, and then we will go to the White House and set off fireworks all night..."
"roll roll roll!"
Matt Damon was already very nervous, and after hearing what Leonardo said, he became even more nervous.
Going to the White House to set off fireworks?
It’s amazing that this guy could think of such a thing. Does he really think the FBI is just there to do nothing?
"The winner of the 90th Academy Awards for Best Actor is..."
On the stage, Jane Fonda, 81, and Helen Mirren, 73, wore reading glasses and looked at the names on the envelopes for a long time before they spoke:
"Manchester by the Sea - Congratulations, Matt Damon, for playing Lee Chandler."
At this moment, the scene was silent for a moment, and then suddenly broke into extremely warm applause!
Everyone's eyes turned to Matt Damon and Fade Chen who was sitting next to him.
Leonardo hugged Matt Damon and shouted excitedly: "Brother! Someone is finally enjoying the bottle of red wine in your wine cellar!"
Matt Damon was also so excited that he could hardly control himself.
He swung his arms vigorously to break free from Leonardo's restraints, and looked at Chen Fei excitedly, giving him a hug full of joy and gratitude: "Fei! Thank you! Thank you so much!"
"Go and claim your prize."
Chen Fei patted his shoulder and was not surprised at who won the award.
Matt Damon's performance in "Manchester by the Sea" definitely deserves a Best Actor award!
"it is good."
Turning around, Matt took big strides and walked towards the podium excitedly.
At this moment, the impact of the failure of "The Great Wall" on him has completely disappeared!
With this Oscar for Best Actor, many acting offers will surely come to him like snowflakes, one after another.
At the same time, when Matt Damon went to receive the award, many actors at the scene still had their eyes fixed on Chen Fei.
No one expected that he would actually produce another "Best Actor"!
Leonardo on the side suddenly came over and whispered: "Fei, look at these people, the eyes they look at you are so hot. If you are a 'comrade', there will definitely be many men who will come forward to offer their butts to you."
"Go away! Get away! Can you stop being so disgusting?"
Chen Fei has no interest in being a "troublemaker". He is a completely straight man and his hobby has always been women, which has never changed.
A few minutes later, Matt Damon returned from the stage after receiving the award, with tears in his eyes due to excessive excitement.
As expected, Leonardo's sarcasm came late but arrived: "Oh, God! You are crying! It's unimaginable!"
"Haha." Matt Damon gave him a glare and said sarcastically, "Do you need me to help you remember what you looked like when you received the award? Tears and snot, tsk tsk..."
Hearing this, Little Leo fell silent.
At the same time, the finale has already started on the stage.
“The winner of the 90th Academy Awards for Best Director is…”
The scene suddenly became quiet, and many people's eyes began to move back and forth between Chen Fei and the director of "The Shape of Water", secretly guessing who of the two would win the Best Director Award.
According to the analysis of many audience members outside the venue, Chen Fei is the most likely to win the Best Director Award. After all, "The Shape of Water" has so many buffs that it is simply the only choice for Best Picture!
However, the next second, many viewers who were watching the award ceremony were stunned.
Because the winner of the Best Director Award from Emma Stone's mouth was: "Guillermo del Toro - "The Shape of Water"!"
For a moment, in addition to applause, there were more exclamations of surprise and heated discussions.
And when Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway later announced that the winner of the 90th Academy Award for Best Picture was "Manchester by the Sea", the entire Dolby Theatre was suddenly filled with cheers!
Isn't it too strange that "The Shape of Water", which has multiple buffs such as LGBTQAPKXREW, lost to "Manchester by the Sea", a traditional award-winning film?
Many people even began to doubt, is this still an Oscar?
Obviously, many "monsters" are vigorously promoting their own ideas and have a lot of supporters, but why did "The Shape of Water" lose to "Manchester by the Sea"?
At this moment, in a tavern in Los Angeles, Kevin Tsujihara and Hamada, a pair of "brothers in distress", were staring at the TV screen hanging on the wall with wide eyes in disbelief.
"Dunkirk" gained almost nothing tonight, which was exactly what Kevin Tsujihara predicted.
After all, since he stepped down as CEO of Warner Bros. Pictures, the public relations of "Dunkirk" has been completely ruined. How could the new CEO support a project that was vigorously promoted by him, the outgoing CEO?
However, he was puzzled by the fact that "Manchester by the Sea" won the Best Picture.
"How is this possible? Why on earth? LGBTQAPKXREW lost? Isn't this too weird?"
Inside the tavern, Kevin Tsujihara's face was filled with shock. He was almost going insane because of the award result!
