America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM.

Chapter 211 210. Who won the Golden Globe for Best Actress?

"Feifei, it's time for Best Screenplay. Eric has two nominations."

"I know, auntie, I'll be right away."

Amid Zhou Wenqiong's shouts, Liu Yifei hurriedly walked to the sofa and sat down. There was a wrinkled facial mask on her face. It was obvious that she was in a hurry and had not packed it properly.

"I've only been away for a few minutes. Didn't I just give out TV drama awards? How come it's so fast!"

"Nicole Kidman is the award guest. This woman is not a good person." Liu Xiaoli said with a cold snort.

Zhou Wenqiong thought that there were rumors of an affair between Nicole Kidman and Eric, at least the existence of a relationship has not been confirmed.

But you have really slept with him, and you don’t know how many times you have slept with him, so you are embarrassed to tell others.

But maybe it was because she slept with Eric that she hated other women who were good to him even more, except her own daughter.

Zhou Wenqiong said: "Nicole Kidman is also good. This is a good sign, isn't it?"

Even if "Get Out" wins the award, Eric's contribution is greater, so he has no complaints at all. He will be satisfied if he can get the nomination.

"They are all the best screenwriters. I have seen both "Lost in Translation" and "Mystic River". I am very sure that both movies will be famous in film history. I am just lucky."

In the audience, the Olsen sisters looked at Eric with smiles. The goblet on the table could reflect the stars in their eyes.

The camera showed the other nominees, and Ray Whannell naturally gave him heartfelt applause. After all, strictly speaking, "Get Out" can be regarded as a script led by Eric.

Wow.
Bang bang bang bang
In an instant, the entire awards ceremony burst into applause. Regardless of whether they could see it or not, everyone's eyes were focused on one point.

Maybe they will sneer and secretly curse Eric for relying on this trend of political correctness to win the award. No one knows.

"It's possible, what if it's just a smoke bomb to deliberately make people confused." Liu Xiaoli poured cold water on her.

"I want to keep playing this role." Nicole secretly poked at the activity.

After being trained hard, she didn't dare to make any surprise attacks this time, and just whispered "I love you".

"Mom, how can you be like this! Why don't you want Eric to win the award?"

Taking advantage of the moment when no one was around, Eric rubbed her ass.

"What are you talking about? Auntie."

Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes, her body was already given to her anyway.

The directing team of the party was a little disappointed that the passionate scene at the Emmy Awards was not staged. They deliberately arranged the part, but you guys didn't cooperate. What will happen to the ratings?
After kissing the trophy, Eric said, "Thank you Nicole, beautiful lady, for being my lucky lady once again."

After hugging Judy, Andrea, Neill Blomkamp and others, I strode onto the stage.

"Haha. You can't say anything and they still arrange a role for you. Feifei is going to participate in a big production this year. I already know it."

Beverly Hills, Hilton Hotel, Golden Globe Awards.

The two sisters looked at each other. No one knew how much they had put into their roles. They were totally lost.

Nicole opened the envelope and announced loudly: "The winner of the Golden Globe Award for Best Screenplay is Eric Cooper's Life of Adele!"

"I don't think so. Whether he wins the award or not has nothing to do with me. I'm just judging the matter and making a wild guess."

Liu Xiaoli glared at her sister: "Why am I familiar with him? I usually don't even get a phone call or a text message, and I can't talk to him."

But isn’t it also the responsibility of movies to follow the trend of public opinion and reflect social facts?

But if you think about it seriously, it shouldn't be too bad if you really hug a tiger. Eric Cooper is hard to say emotionally, but at least he keeps his word and will definitely not treat his children badly.

Nicole's eyebrows were watery: "Dear, am I obedient enough this time? Are you satisfied?"

"I am very grateful to the association for awarding the trophy to a young man like me. Compared to the others, I have the least experience."

Patty Jenkins is equally convinced. Without MGM's investment, there is no doubt whether "The Devil Wears Prada" will be made, or whether it will be released in theaters.

The other two nominees either smiled or looked serious, and they all graced the applause. It was hard to say what they were thinking.

After delivering their acceptance speeches, Eric and Nicole returned backstage arm in arm.

He is more of a tinkerer. Their contributions to the script are similar to the first and second works of the thesis, and there is a certain distance between them in terms of gold content.

"Without their wonderful performances, the movie would not be as effective as it is today. You are the best."

"MGM sent someone to inspect it once, but nothing happened after that. Our theater owner kept asking me about their attitude."

Pushing the messy thoughts out of her mind, Liu Xiaoli said, "Okay, okay, I'll think of a way, don't worry."

"Feifei, do you remember the Emmy Awards? At that time, Eric won the Best Screenplay Award for Nicole Kidman. Maybe the association wants to replicate that tonight."

Amid warm applause, Ashley and Mary kissed him immediately, kissing him on the cheeks.

Moreover, the influence of "The Devil" is obviously not as great as "Adele's Life". Heishen lost to Xiaoqing, which is unfair.

After coming on stage, he hugged Nicole first, and the two kissed briefly.

"If you don't help, Feifei will definitely help me."

Zhou Wenqiong looked at Liu Xiaoli with a half-smile but not a smile: "Sister, it's been more than half a year since I last saw Eric in Los Angeles."

Why do I want to feed a tiger with my body? Isn't it just to prevent my daughter from going into the tiger's den? Otherwise, it will be fun to bring a tiger cub back to me one day.

"You know Eric so well, and Feifei, please help me talk."

"I would also like to thank the entire crew, especially Ashley and Mary, who have sacrificed a lot for their characters, to an extent that outsiders cannot imagine."

"Hmph! You know what's going on."

"Then you choose a time to come to my house. My mother likes you very much."

"what?"

"Ah what! We have a meal and nothing else, are you coming?"

Seeing someone coming, Eric nodded hurriedly: "I must go!"

"That's pretty much it."

Returning to her seat, Mary grabbed the trophy and looked at it carefully: "Is this the Golden Globe Award? It's really beautiful. I want it too."

Ashley came over with the same longing look in her eyes. This trophy was more tempting than the most delicious candy in the world.

Eric chuckled and said: "You will have it too, you will have it soon."

The awards ceremony continued, with several TV series awards being handed out, and then it was the turn of Best Foreign Language Film.

As predicted by the media, the award went to the Afghan film "Osama", Russia's "Return" and Germany's "Goodbye Lenin" both failed.

This movie tells a microcosm of the Afghan people under Taban's rule in the 90s. The movie is heartbreaking and cruel. Although it is not as dimly lit as "The Devil Wears Prada", the darkness is not inferior at all, and it is a type of movie that Eric will never watch a second time.

Even if this kind of movie does not have an exquisite narrative and structure, or any editing or technical tricks, some aspects are even deliberately done.

But the shock of the story itself and the reality of the background make this deliberateness become natural, and this simplicity become fuller.

A movie can win awards not only because of its authenticity, but also because of its political factors.

The United States has not done anything good since it invaded Afghanistan in 2001. Choosing this movie can at least highlight its own justice.

Eric remembered that he had also watched a movie called "Children of Kabul" that reflected the lives of the people after the US invasion of Afghanistan.

This movie doesn't seem to have won any major awards.

Director Siddiq Balmak did not attend the Golden Globe Awards. The acting usher came up and said a few words before leaving the stage.

Then Diane Keaton won the best actress in a musical comedy film for her performance in "Love Is Compromising", and "The Office" won the best musical comedy series.

At this time, Jack Nicholson wearing sunglasses came up from the backstage. Anyone who dared to dress up like this to present the award was a senior actor. Generally, actors wearing sunglasses would be sprayed to death.

Old Jack was nominated for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy, but unfortunately lost to Bill Murray.

But he no longer needs to prove himself with awards. Classic roles such as The Shining and The Joker have already made this old man stand tall.

"A few days ago, the association contacted me and said, Jack, how about you come and award the Best Actress in a Drama Series?"

"I said why not let me present the best film? Do you think I am not worthy of presenting this award?"

"They said no, and look who are the nominees for Best Picture? Peter Jackson, Anthony Minghella, Clint Eastwood, Peter Weir, Eric Cooper."

"Five people put together can't put together a beautiful leg. They are all stinky men, although Eric Cooper is a young and handsome guy."

"But even though homosexual love is popular now, you must still prefer beautiful women."

“I thought about it carefully and felt like it was, so I accepted the offer.”

Hahahaha
The funny old Jack performed a talk show and joked about the current homosexual trend, which immediately attracted laughter.

But some people can laugh, and some people can't, such as the Olsen family now.

Aomei was sitting on the sofa with her parents. The only sound from the TV could be heard in the living room. The three of them stared at the screen.

For this day, the two couples who had been divorced for several years sat together again, hoping to see the wonderful moments of their two precious daughters.

"Dad, can Ashley and Mary win the prize?" Omei asked anxiously.

"Of course it can. Among these five movies, "Adele's Life" has the highest box office and the most influence. The gay community regards the two of them as idols and spiritual totems."

"The media and the Internet are also very optimistic about Ashley and Mary. We will definitely win the award."

"Yes, honey, your sister can definitely win the prize."

On stage, Jack Nicholson continued: "Nominated for Best Actress in a Drama Series."

"Charlize Theron's "The Devil Wears Prada," Scarlett Johansson's "Girl with a Pearl Earring," Evan Rachel Wood's "Thirteen," Cate Blanchett's "The Wife" and Ashley Olson, Mary Olson, "The Life of Adele."

There are six nominees for five films, because "The Life of Adele" has two heroines, and the two sisters' scenes are equal.

Suddenly, their hands were clenched, and the Olsen sisters pursed their lips nervously. Eric could even feel them shaking slightly.

At the round table next to him, Theron looked at himself nervously, and then stared at the envelope in Jack Nicholson's hand.

The same is true for the other three nominees. Cate Blanchett wore a red dress, and the style of the future devil has already taken shape. Scarlett Johansson wore a gorgeous evening dress and was also rushing to win the award.

Under everyone's nervous gaze, Jack Nicholson slowly opened the envelope. The old man was still acting weird at this time.

He took off his sunglasses and announced with a smile: "The winner of the Best Actress in a Drama Movie is Ashley Olsen and Mary Olsen's "Adele's Life"!"

Yeah!

Yeah!

Two girls who had just turned 18 couldn't restrain their excitement and stood up and cheered loudly.

Although their behavior is somewhat unseemly, who says they are just adults?

The little girl is young, energetic and full of energy, and she should dare to laugh and dance.

In particular, their awards also broke the age record for Best Actress at the Golden Globe Awards. The age of 18 is unprecedented.

It’s hard to say whether there will be others in the future. Just like Eric’s record, it is almost a swan song.

Even in 2021, Rachel Ziegler, the youngest actress born at the Golden Globe Awards, was already 20 years old at that time.

What's more, the Olsen sisters are still the daughters that Americans have watched grow up. When the children grow up and become capable, they should react no matter how big they are.

So instead of being annoying, this kind of excited expression makes people feel cute.

The two kissed Eric on the face again, and then walked onto the stage side by side.

Eric switched to the "The Devil Wears Prada" crew and gently patted Theron on the back to comfort her.

Theron pouted aggrievedly, her eyes unable to hide the disappointment. If it wasn't in a public place, she really wanted to throw herself into Eric's arms and cry.

Even though we have done so much, we still failed.

If you like female celebrities to act ugly, then I will act ugly and gain weight.

If you don’t like commercial films, then I will make literary films.

If you like breakthrough roles, then I will play a gay character.

What else do you want from me? What else do you want from me? Only you will give me the trophy!
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. It was a blessing that Eric was not around, but seeing him around made her feel sad and found an outlet.

"Honey, I feel like crying," Theron whispered.

"Now is not the time, baby, otherwise tomorrow your big feature will be on the front page, and those guys will mock you as a loser, and that's okay."

"Isn't it the Golden Globe? Forget it if you can't win it. Let's go get the Oscar. The Oscar is always more authoritative and convincing than the Golden Globe."

Patty Jenkins also comforted and said: "Yes Theron, your performance is already great."

"The Golden Globes are just a bunch of unprofessional people's selection. The Oscars are professional. If we wait another month, we will definitely win the Oscar."

"really?"

"I promise, honey!" Eric nodded solemnly.
