The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.
Chapter 31 Kneeling in public?
The nominees for Best Supporting Actress are Shirley MacLaine for *Shoes in the Dark*, Frances McDormand for *North Country*, Michelle Williams for *Brokeback Mountain*, Rachel Weisz for *The Constant Gardener*, Michelle Williams for *Manchester by the Sea*, and Scarlett Johansson for *Match Point*.
Among them, Michel Williams is the most popular, with two nominations for "Brokeback Mountain" and "Manchester by the Sea".
"Scarlett!"
Lin Bufan looked at Scarlett on the screen; she was only 22 years old at the time.
At 22, Scarlett Johansson was young and beautiful, but compared to the Black Widow of our memories, she lacked an indescribable coldness and charm.
Michelle Williams was visibly emotional at this point, as she had been nominated for two of the six films.
"Let's congratulate Rachel Weisz on 'The Constant Gardener'..."
On stage, the presenter opened the list, glanced at it, and read it aloud with a smile.
Some were happy while others were sad. Lin Bufan could sense Michelle's momentary disappointment, after all, this was the closest she had ever been to the award.
The awards ceremony continued, and the next award presented was for Best Original Song, which was won by "Brokeback Mountain".
Next up was the Best Supporting Actor award.
"Congratulations to Lucas Hedges for 'Manchester by the Sea'..."
"Is it me?"
Lucas Hedges looked delighted. Born in 96, the 10-year-old had no idea that his very first film would win an award.
"Director, thank you!"
Lucas stood up and excitedly hugged Lin Bufan.
"Alright, go up and accept your honor."
Lin Bufan patted Lucas on the shoulder.
Lucas nodded vigorously, walked onto the stage to accept the trophy, and took a deep breath: "First of all, I want to thank the director. He gave me this opportunity; without him, I wouldn't be who I am today..."
Watching Lucas speak eloquently on stage, Michelle felt a pang of envy.
Both were nominees, but he missed out on the award.
"Next up is the Best Original Score Award..."
A small award was ultimately won by "Memoirs of a Geisha".
Next, the awards for Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Comedy Film were presented, all of which were won by "Walk the Line".
"Next up is the award for Best Foreign Language Film..."
As the host finished speaking, the nominated films began to be shown on the big screen.
Among them are "The Promise" representing mainland China and "Kung Fu Hustle" representing Hong Kong. The other three films are "Merry Christmas" from France, "Heaven Now" from Palestine, and "Gangsters" from South Africa, for a total of five films competing for the Best Foreign Language Film award.
Lin Bufan looked in the direction of the "Kung Fu Hustle" crew and the "The Promise" crew. It was obvious to the naked eye that neither Stephen Chow nor Chen Kaige had a calm expression.
For Stephen Chow, Kung Fu Hustle can be considered his best film to date.
Similarly, Chen Kaige also wanted to use the Golden Globe Awards to make a great comeback for "The Promise". He wanted to prove that it wasn't that his film "The Promise" was bad, but that domestic audiences didn't know how to appreciate it.
"Let's congratulate 'Paradise Now'..."
When the presenter announced the award, the disappointment of Stephen Chow and Chen Kaige was clearly visible.
After the Best Foreign Language Film award was presented, only five awards remained at the entire awards ceremony, which were also the most prestigious awards.
The first award presented was for Best Screenplay.
The six films nominated are Match Point, Good Night and Good Luck, Crash, Munich, Brokeback Mountain and Manchester by the Sea.
Watching the movie scrolling on the screen, it would be impossible for Lin Bufan not to feel nervous.
"Congratulations to Lin for 'Manchester by the Sea'..."
The award presenter on stage opened the envelope, his voice somewhat loud.
"Director, congratulations..."
Standing on the stage, Lin Bufan accepted the trophy from the presenter, turned to look at the crowd below, took a deep breath, and smiled broadly: "Thank you to the organizing committee for giving me this award. You could say this is the first trophy I've ever received, and it has special significance for me..."
After giving his acceptance speech, Lin Bufan walked off the stage with the trophy.
Next up was the Best Actress award, which had nothing to do with "Manchester by the Sea".
The nominees include Maria Bello in *A History of Violence*, Felicity Hoffman in *Crossing America*, Gwyneth Paltrow in *Evidence*, Charlize Theron in *North Country*, and Zhang Ziyi in *Memoirs of a Geisha*.
Of the group, the only person Lin Bufan was familiar with was Zhang Ziyi.
As a fellow Chinese, Lin Bufan also hoped that Zhang Ziyi would win the award, but unfortunately, the Best Actress award was ultimately won by Felicity Hoffman for "Crossing America".
"Why……"
After failing to be selected, Zhang Ziyi could not hide her disappointment.
After the Best Actress award, it's the turn of the Best Actor award.
Compared to Best Actress, the competition for Best Actor this year is fierce, with nominees including Russell Crowe for Cinderella, Philip Seymour Hoffman for Capote, Terrence Dash Howard for Hustle, David Strathairn for Good Night and Good Luck, Heath Ledger for Brokeback Mountain, and Casey Affleck for Manchester by the Sea.
Among them, Casey Affleck and Heath Ledger are the most noteworthy.
At this moment, as they watched the footage being played on stage, the two men clenched their fists. For male actors, winning a Best Actor award is of paramount importance.
Leonardo DiCaprio was nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor several times but was never nominated.
While the Golden Globes may not be as prestigious as the Oscars, they are still highly regarded.
"Let's congratulate Casey Affleck on 'Manchester by the Sea'..."
Upon hearing this news, Cassie, who was standing next to Lin Bufan, immediately stood up excitedly.
Casey Affleck, a third-tier Hollywood actor whose salary is only around $20 to $50 per film, will see his salary instantly jump to $100 million, or even more, after winning this Best Actor award.
Moreover, winning a Best Actor award brings him into the spotlight of many directors and investors, which is even more important to him.
"Director, thank you!"
Overwhelmed with emotion, Casey Affleck actually knelt down before Lin Bufan in public.
This scene instantly caused an uproar throughout the entire venue.
