Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 541
The impact of 911/[-] last year has continued to this year's Oscars. There were many demonstrators around the red carpet, protesting that the party should not be held at this time of war.There are also some actors who have launched activities to boycott the Oscars before, but the effect is not too great.

Soon came the awards ceremony, and the first award that Laila's crew welcomed was Janet's best costume design.

In Leila's view, her opponent is not very strong, at least not as good as Janet in her eyes.Whether it is "Moulin Rouge" or "Gone with the Wind", it is not so brilliant compared with "Pirates of the Caribbean".Maybe it's the subject matter, commercial films have more room to play than those.Coupled with Janet's own strength, Laila felt that she had at least an [-]% chance of winning that award.

"The winner is Janet Moran, "Pirates of the Caribbean"!" The award presenter smiled and read out the name.

Laila wasn't surprised when the presenter announced Janet Moran's name, while the entire crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" clapped and cheered excitedly.

At this time, Janet's delicate and beautiful appearance, which is not inferior to that of a big star, appeared on the movie screens of thousands of households. Her simple, clean and graceful aristocratic temperament is somewhat different from those of the stars.If people really talk about it, most people may not know what the difference is, but as long as they look at her, they can deeply feel the difference.

"Wow!" "Congratulations!" "Beautiful job!"

Appreciation, applause, and cheers made Janet cover her lips in disbelief.

"Come on, Mom." Laila urged her to the stage, clapping her hands and laughing.

Only then did Janet slowly step onto the stage, and took over the statuette from the guests, which she couldn't even imagine.

"Thank you, thank you everyone." She no longer knew what to say: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect to get this award at all, and I didn't even prepare my award speech."

Her shyness elicited a burst of friendly laughter from the audience.

"It's incredible to get this award. The other day, my daughter said to me 'Mom, I need you'. Well, she got me."

This time the laughter was louder, mixed with a lot of encouraging applause.

Janet looked in the direction of her daughter, her voice choked up: "What I want to say is that as long as you need me, I will always be by your side. Thank you, thank you Oscar for giving me this opportunity, thank you everyone in the crew for helping me, Thank you my daughter for needing me."

Although she did not prepare a speech, everyone was moved by the sincere emotion revealed in her words.Even Laila, who thought she was more rational than emotional, felt a sour taste in her nose.

When she came to this world, apart from being able to make her favorite movie, the deepest feeling is that her family supports her for no reason.It was a kind of love that even if she wanted to poke a big hole in the sky, they would help her find something.

For the layman's mother who got the coveted statuette before herself, Leila didn't feel any jealousy other than being happy, she deserved it!

"Honey, I didn't embarrass you, did I?" Janet, who came off the stage, always felt that she must be ugly just now.

Laila gave her a gentle hug. "Mommy, you're fine. You're the best mom ever."

"You are also the best daughter!" Janet sniffed and hugged her even tighter.

After losing Best Sound Mixing, the second category related to the crew is Best Makeup.Lila thinks that her crew is more likely to win this award, because the image of Captain Jack is loved by so many people, which has a lot to do with his costumes.

Besides "A Beautiful Mind", his opponent is "Moulin Rouge". The original winner "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" has not been filmed because of Leila's relationship, so Xiao Ye will take advantage of it no matter how you look at it. a little.

"Aren't you nervous at all?" Someone in the crew asked Xiao Ye curiously.

The result was Xiao Ye's rhetorical question: "Why should I be nervous?" He had encountered life-and-death situations countless times, how could he be nervous just because of an award?

"Aren't you worried that you won't get the prize?"

Xiao Ye shrugged: "What's mine is mine, and if it's not mine, I can't force it." He directly used a Zen oriental way of saying it.

"Okay." The crew could only secretly feel ashamed of their narrow-mindedness, seeing how generous they are, and they don't care whether they win or lose.

When Lila heard what they said, she turned her head away with a smile: "Our company is still very young, and so are you. Being here is already a victory for us. As for the award, we can get it at such a young age, isn't it? Can't you get what you want in the next few decades?"

"That's right!" Everyone turned around.Think about how many young people like them have been nominated in the history of the Oscars?Even if they don't get the award, with this nomination, they are worth a hundred times each, so why should they ruin their mood because of whether they won the award or not?

Seeing that Lila changed everyone's attitude with a few words, Xiao Ye secretly gave her a thumbs up.If it weren't for the boss, this eloquence would have already broken through the sky.

"The winner is Ian Shaw, "Pirates of the Caribbean"!" The guest smiled and read out the name in the envelope.

The applause sounded, and Xiao Ye walked towards the podium with a smile while being slightly stunned.Ian Xiao was the name he had chosen for himself as a make-up artist. He never expected that this random name would appear on such an occasion one day.

He used to think that he would live in a dark place with different faces all his life, but after he quit his job as an agent, he had such a brilliant and bright place for himself to appear on the stage.I have to sigh the magic and mystery of fate.

After receiving the trophy from the award presenter, Xiao Ye's expression was a bit complicated. It was not the ecstasy of ordinary people, nor indifference, but a kind of vicissitudes mixed with various emotions that people could feel.

"To be honest, I didn't prepare the script for the award speech. Like Janet, I also didn't expect to have the opportunity to win this award." Holding the trophy, his fingers lightly passed over it, and he could see that he was interested in the trophy. With care and attention.

"My makeup skills are self-taught. I was seen by my boss Leila Moran by chance, and then I was abducted by her into her company. At that time, I just thought that my makeup skills could still be used in movies. , It’s really amazing. But as I got more and more in touch with the movie, I realized that this is not the simple world I thought, it should be another world, a world where I can be called a superhero.”

He looked at the audience, especially where his crew was, and smiled slightly: "What I want to say is, no matter where you see my potential, boss, I have to say something to you—do good."
