Chapter 436 Ex-Husband and Ex-Wife
The luncheon for the nominees has already begun. Although all kinds of delicious meals are on the table, few people have the appetite to eat them. Everyone's attention is focused on the small stage at the front of the banquet hall.
Actress Kate Hudson, who hosted the nominees luncheon, was announcing the nominees one by one.
This is just a nomination, not an official award. The list is all read out by Kate Hudson and displayed on the big screen behind her.
"The nominees for Best Animated Short Film are..."
Finally, a Ronan-related award has announced its nominees: "The Cathedral," Thomas Baginski; "Big Eyed Boy's New Car," Pete Docter; "Peppa Pig," Chris Leonard; "Roulette," Chris Setner."
Hearing this list, Chris Leonard clenched his fists hard. The animation team's work for more than half a year was not in vain.
He looked at where Ronan was, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. With a boss who supports the animation team so much, there is no reason for the animation team not to be successful!
And they have to prove with success that those who kicked them out are wrong!
Now it's Peppa Pig, then there's Minions, and then there's the first animated feature!
Chris Leonard has already seen the story outline and main character settings written by Ronan himself. The anti-hero and anti-traditional "Despicable Me" may really restore the glory of the animation team.
Getting nominated for the Best Animated Short Film was completely within Ronan's expectations, and it was time to consider how to get the Best Animated Short Film.
If you want to take the statuette home in one month, proper investment is a must.
The Oscar public relations of "Hero" can be stopped, and the publicity and public relations team can focus on "Peppa Pig" to hit the best animated short film.
Kate Hudson announced the nominations for several more technical awards, and then announced the nominees for the best foreign language film.
Director Zhang was a little nervous, he hadn't had this sense of anticipation for a long time, maybe other awards had lost enough appeal to him.
Nominated this time, he can compete for the best foreign language film statuette and get acquainted with the Oscars.
Next time, maybe he can hit the best director.
The future of Best Picture is not out of the question.
Director Zhang took a look at Ronan. This big boss in Hollywood is a good person. He pays attention to promises and reputation. If he does what he says, he can cooperate for a long time.
"Hotel Paradise," Paula van der Oersted; "The Man Without a Past," Aki Kaurismaki; "Heroes," Jang Yi; "In Africa," Caroline Lam g; "City of God"..."
Director Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, and the crew congratulated him one after another. He was also in a good mood. Although he didn't win an award, he returned with a lot of honor when he returned in a few days.
Even if you don’t have time, you still have to take the time to go back before the awards ceremony. This is a glorious homecoming!
Absolutely can't wait until after the Oscars ceremony, after all, no one can guarantee the award, once you don't win the award, the effect will be much worse if you go back.
Having worked hard in the Eastern film industry for many years, Director Zhang's precise grasp of certain things is beyond admiration.
"Congratulations." Tom Cruise said to Ronan, "Are you nominated for the second Best Foreign Language Film?"
Will Smith answered: "You have a treat tonight."
Ronan first said: "Thank you." Then he responded to Will Smith: "Go to my place after the lunch, I have the beef flown in from the island country, and the latest king crab..."
Will Smith said: "Okay, definitely go!"
This is a celebration banquet, and Ronan will invite many people.
The nominations were announced one by one, and soon came the nominations for the four most important awards.
"Best Actress nominees are Nicole Kidman, The Hours; Renee Zellweger, Chicago; Julianne Moore, Far From Heaven; Salma Hayek, Frida; Diane Lane,
"Infidelity". "
As expected, Nicole Kidman was nominated for Best Actress yet again.
Tom Cruise turned to look in Nicole Kidman's direction, who happened to look in his direction, then turned around and gave Harvey Weinstein a big hug.
Ronan also saw it, but didn't say anything. Even if Tom Cruise was unhappy, it was just his ex-wife.
If you want Harvey Weinstein to help win the Best Actress Oscar, you have to give something.
If you gain something, you may lose something. Similar transactions have never been an unspoken rule in Hollywood, and they have always been out in the open.
Having said that, Harvey Weinstein has a really good appetite, he can eat everything from young and beautiful to old and decrepit, even Judi Dench and Meryl Streep can go down his mouth... …
Ronan admits that he is far behind Weinstein in this respect, maybe Will Smith can compare with him?
But Will Smith is much more particular than Harvey Weinstein. At most, the husband and wife play their own way, and they will not do things that force others.
After the Best Actress nomination list comes the Best Actor nomination list.
"Adrien Brody, The Pianist; Jack Nicholson, About Schmidt; Nicolas Cage, Adapted Screenplay; Daniel Day-Lewis, Gangs of New York; Michael Kane, "The Quiet American."
No Tom Cruise on the list!
Tom Cruise didn't get an Oscar nomination for Best Actor!
The nomination list was announced. Although Tom Cruise maintained a polite smile, Ronan and Will Smith, who knew him well, could tell that Tom Cruise was very upset.
Ronan sighed softly in his heart. From today onwards, the team behind Tom Cruise will inevitably undergo tremendous changes.
Will Smith pretended to be relaxed and said: "Tom, it's no big deal. It's better than being disappointed at the awards ceremony. You have plenty of time and opportunities. If this time doesn't work, there will be a next time."
Ronan said: "It's just a comeback."
Tom Cruise nodded: "Don't worry, I'm fine, I've been running with you for so many years, I'm used to it."
Only then did Ronan realize that Tom Cruise has been nominated for many Oscars, and he has been a professional escort for 20 years.
As the list of nominations came to an end, the luncheon officially entered the dining stage, and many people began to cross tables. Ronan went to say hello to Chris Leonard and the "Heroes" crew, and invited them to go after the luncheon In the future world manor, there will be a celebration party in the evening.
In addition to these people, Ronan also extended invitations to others, such as Nicolas Cage.
"Sofia talked about you specifically with me." Nicolas Cage said to Ronan: "She said that you are a very amazing person, you have a lot of ideas about movies, and you are a trustworthy partner."
Ronan replied with a smile: "I just did what a producer should do." He then said: "Nicola, I hope we can also have the opportunity to cooperate."
Since "Windtalker", Nicolas Cage's career has gone downhill. Of course, he would not underestimate the favor of a famous producer, and quickly said: "This is my honor."
After bidding farewell to Nicolas Cage, Ronan chatted with Martin Scorsese again. The old Martin had heard of him, and they were more polite to each other.
Ronan simply asked, Martin Scorsese will cooperate with Leonardo DiCaprio in "The Aviator" next.
Now is not the time to mention The Departed.
After Martin Scorsese declined the invitation to the party, Ronan returned to his table and found that there was another person here, a beautiful woman who was white and glowing.
Nicole Kidman is here.
The woman had a smile on her face, as proud as an Australian koala.
Maybe it was the end of what to say, Nicole Kidman nodded to Ronan with a smile, and left here.
Tom Cruise also had a smile on his face, a polite smile.
Ronan asked, "What's wrong?"
Tom Cruise didn't answer, Will Smith said: "What else can I do, just come and show off, it's just a nomination."
"More than a nomination," Tom Cruise murmured. "She might actually win."
Ronan shook his head: "Women, you can't help but cock your tail." He said directly: "It may not be a good thing for Nicole to win the Oscar for Best Actress."
"How about that?" Tom Cruise asked.
Ronan said directly: "Before filming "The Bourne", CAA recommended Nicole to me. I asked someone to do a targeted market research, and then declined."
"Too much pay?" Will Smith asked.
Ronan said: "This is only one reason. The most important thing is that I found through the first-line survey data that American movie fans don't like Nicole at all."
Tom Cruise frowned: "Isn't it? The movies she starred in in the past two years have done well..."
Ronan sighed and said, "Do you know? There is a kind of sympathy that the audience pays for."
Will Smith and Tom Cruise are smart people and immediately understood what Ronan was saying.
"So, she deliberately pretended to be pitiful?" Tom Cruise was one of the parties involved: "Throw all the faults on me, and I will not open my mouth if I am sure? Then win the sympathy of the public and the media?"
Ronan did not answer directly, but said: "Once she wins the Oscar for Best Actress, everything before will be reset to zero with the huge benefits brought by the statuette."
Once she becomes an absolute heroine and really carries a commercial film, Nicole Kidman is a veritable box office poison.
Will-Smith said: "Ronan's vision has always been good, and I think that makes sense."
Tom Cruise didn't say anything, and thinking of Nicole Kidman using him to gain hype and sympathy in the divorce case, the remaining trace of affection disappeared.
Ronan looked at the time and said, "It's almost time, let's go, go to my place."
