Chapter 1159 1159 Top Party
The awards show is over, but for Hollywood entertainers, the rave is just beginning.
Oscar is just a carnival for a small group of people, the number of people who can be nominated is only a few, and it is not so easy to be the presenter; but after the Oscar is over, there is a carnival that belongs to everyone The curtain is being drawn.
The annual Oscar night, organized by Vanity Fair magazine, is in full swing right after the awards ceremony.
The old magazine "Vanity Fair" has experienced ups and downs for 80 years. After 1991, it gradually reached its peak under the leadership of the new editor-in-chief, Graydon. Carter. This magazine truly records the glitzy life in the United States. The content of the magazine is a mixture of fashion, politics, celebrities, money and social news. Not only ordinary people love to read it, but celebrities and intellectuals are also willing to read it, which makes the magazine continue to expand its readership base.
In 1993, in order to further expand the influence of "Vanity Fair", Graydon made a bold decision that was enough to change the trend of Hollywood: to set up a celebrity party after the Oscars, bringing all the top celebrities together on one occasion, and at the same time. Open shopping mall tycoons, social authorities, and media celebrities!
This so-called "Oscar Night" has only been held for two years, but it already has the ability to change the direction of the entertainment industry.
At this party, people can meet top Hollywood stars, top executives of film companies or listed companies, meet editors of fashion magazines and national newspapers, and see handsome guys and beauties flooding the eyes of the party, which makes the party. It has become a real vanity fair, where almost everyone can achieve their goals.
Graydon has very special eligibility rules for Oscar night, first handing out invitations to all Oscar nominees to ensure the eventual winner will show up at the party to attract more attention.
Second, invitations will be issued to top celebrities, including powerful figures from all fields of entertainment, culture, and sports, such as Steven Spielberg, although he has not received any Oscar nominations this year, but he has no doubts Get invitations; David Geffen, who has never been nominated for an Oscar, has been invited for the past two years.
Once again, the popular fried chicken in the past year will receive invitations, especially the beauties. Take Cameron Diaz, for example, she's not nominated for an Oscar or a Golden Globe, but a "Geek in Disguise" would be enough to get her invited, not to mention that she's currently dating Hugo.
In the end, Graydon will also issue invitation letters to some topical characters, which is very broad, including second-tier and third-tier actors, as well as many popular singers, as well as socialites, outstanding agents, and famous lawyers. Elites from all walks of life, let them become active figures in the party.
Oscar night means opportunities, connections, and special circles that ordinary people cannot reach and ordinary people cannot join.
Therefore, in just two years, Oscar night has become the most important party in the United States, even surpassing the Oscars itself, becoming a dream occasion for countless celebrities and people at the bottom. Some even called it "the most difficult party in the world", and invitations to the party were hard to come by.
Hugo received an invitation when the first Oscar night was held. At that time, the super popularity of "Smell the Fragrance and Know a Woman" and "Righteous Sea Heroes" made Hugo a topical figure, and received an invitation letter at the last moment. , but Hugo lacked interest in these activities because of the Golden Globes event, and then Oscar simply did not attend, not to mention Oscar night.
Last year, "Vanity Fair" naturally won't forget Hugo, and Hugo also became the winner of the Golden Man for the first time, but Hugo just walked around Oscar night, and then went to party with a large group of friends, drinking and drinking until dawn . The result also caused a fuss in the media - Hugo, who was second only to Steven Spielberg at the Oscars that night, only showed up and then disappeared.
The direct result of this is that after Hugo gave up the Golden Globes and chose Sundance this year, Graydon called Hugo in person and sincerely invited Hugo to attend. Oscar night. You know, the Oscar nominations hadn't come out yet.
However, with Hugo's current reputation, it would be really embarrassing if he couldn't be invited to attend Oscar night. So, Graydon invited Rick to dinner three times before and after, and after the nomination list came out, he sent a special gift to congratulate Hugo-it was a pair of exquisite Rolex couple watches, and they reported it after the Grammys ended. It's no surprise that the great deeds of glory to death - the words of praise, and the sheer sincerity shown before and after are not surprising.
This time, Hugo did not miss Oscar night again, especially at a sensitive moment when Endeavour Elite Agency needed him, and he had no reason to be absent.
After leaving the Holy Auditorium, Hugo and Cameron first went to the beauty salon to freshen up and changed into a set of clothes before driving to the Sunset Tower Hotel (Sunset. Tower. Hotel) by Samora.
It was already late when they arrived, but there was still a long line of cars ahead, slowly moving forward, and after about twenty minutes, they arrived at the ticket gate of the parking lot, the Los Angeles police in uniform. Cha came up, confirmed the parking permit on the dashboard, and said to Samora with a smile, "Welcome to Oscar night." He waved his hand back, and a dressed-up parking boy ran over. police. Cha then turned around and said, "Please give the car to our staff, we will park it for you."
Hugo looked at Joseph and Rick who were sitting beside him in surprise, "Is there a parking service here?"
Rick had expected it long ago, opened the door skillfully, and said, "It's just you", and got out of the car. Joseph fell behind, explaining simply, "This is also graded."
It was only later that Hugo learned that their parking permits were of different colors, and different colors enjoyed different levels of service. Clearly, Hugo enjoyed top-notch service.
After the group got out of the car, a staff member drove over in a golf cart and drove them from the parking lot entrance all the way to the party. There are two large rows of security guards in black suits at the entrance, next to the Los Angeles police. Cha was helping to maintain order—there were many fans gathered nearby, and when they saw Hugo coming, they screamed and shouted excitedly.
Hugo stopped, looked back, and saw a few familiar faces. He couldn't help laughing and waving his hand, causing the crowd of fans to burst into screams. Hugo patted Samora on the shoulder, "Your brother and the others came here, you know?" Hugo saw Eli Casvey and Liam Pinkman.
"Well, they told me." Samora nodded, "Don't worry, after you go in, they will go home."
Since Samora is Hugo's assistant, Samora is actually notified of many of Young Volcano's activities to ensure fans are organized and disciplined and try to avoid chaos.
Hugo nodded with a smile, waved at them again, and said to Samora, "After you go in for a while, check their situation, it's almost midnight, it's too cold in Los Angeles today. ." After coming out of the Holy Auditorium, you can feel the sudden drop in temperature, which is not normal for Los Angeles at the end of March.
Samora nodded and was about to comfort Hugo so he didn't have to worry when Rick's voice came from the front, "Hugo, come here, we need you here."
Hugo raised his eyebrows in surprise, and walked over with Cameron, "What's wrong?" I saw Rick and Joseph standing at the entrance, but the security stopped them and did not let them go, which made Hugo a little bit. surprised.
Rick didn't speak, just shrugged and stepped aside for Hugo to step forward.
Hugo stepped forward, and before he had time to ask, he heard the security guard smile and say, "Oh, Mr. Lancaster, good evening." Hugo nodded and said hello, and then the security guard explained, "We Just to confirm the identity of the guests and prevent others from getting in, please be considerate of our work."
It turns out that Rick, as an agent, does not know the security guards, which is normal. Not to mention Joseph.
"Excuse me, are they all your entourage? Can you tell us their names? Thank you for your cooperation." Although the security recognized Hugo, he said dutifully.
"Of course." Hugo introduced everyone around him, and Samora hurried over to avoid being missed. I saw that the security guard took the invitation and confirmed it again, and then let it go.
Hugo couldn't help but sigh, no wonder Oscar night is so influential, every detail of it reflects the difference of class levels, clearly telling everyone: this is a top party, not everyone can enter, and even if you get an invitation people are also different. This clear attitude has made more people flock to them, not only taking pride in attending such a party, but also hoping to take advantage of such a party to reach the sky.
Sure enough, this is a vanity fair.
But before Hugo's sigh was over, he ran into trouble again. After entering the gate and walking through the garden, Hugo and his party were stopped in front of the banquet hall again. A black-haired woman said solemnly and sternly, "May I ask the names of you and your entourage."
Hugo looked back at the security guard not far from the door, and then at the black-haired woman. The words got stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it: This layer of security is too complicated, isn't it?
