Chapter 435： High style

The most important annual award in the North American awards season is undoubtedly the Oscar, and the announcement of the Oscar nominations, which is the traditional Oscar nominees luncheon, can be regarded as the focus of fans all over the world.

The nomination list is undoubtedly the ticket to enter the Oscars.

In order for "Hero" to be nominated for the best foreign language film Oscar, Embassy Pictures has done a lot of work.

Nearly $5 million has been invested in public relations and publicity.

This is also a good opportunity for the film to continue to expand its popularity before the Oscars. Ronan also promised the producer before, so he arrived at the nomination lunch on time at 5:01 in the afternoon.

The School of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences hosted the nominees’ luncheon at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel and leased the huge Ballroom One

There was a not-so-long red carpet at the entrance of the hotel, gathering hundreds of media reporters.

It was agreed in advance that Ronan found Tom Cruise and Will Smith as soon as he walked into the media area.

The three stood side by side, allowing media reporters to take photos, but they all declined the interview.

Entering the banquet hall of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, at Ronan’s proposal, Tom Cruise and Will Smith all changed seats and sat at the same table with Ronan.

The Oscar nominees luncheon was held in the form of a formal banquet, with dozens of round tables filled with banquet halls, which can be regarded as a big entertainment party for eating and drinking.

Of course, those who can get the nomination are happy, but those who can't get the nomination will be disappointed.

This is the second award-giving banquet that Ronan has recently attended.

Last week, he just participated in the 60th American TV Film Golden Globe Awards.

"Hero" was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film, but the Spanish film "Speak to Her" won the award.

The Golden Globe Award is a wonderful award. No one understands the criteria for its award. The best foreign language film award-winning hit "The City of God" returned empty-handed, causing countless people to fall below the spotlight.

Gary Oldman once said that the Ballon d'Or is meaningless, just a group of 90 incompetents.

This famous personality actor may not be right, but there is always some truth.

And he is also known for daring to speak the truth.

For example, there used to be myths about Heath Ledger. Countless people said that Heath Ledger died because he played the clown wholeheartedly. In an interview with Gary Oldman, who also appeared in The Dark Knight, he only gave One sentence-nonsense.

Although the Golden Globes have a completely different relationship with the Oscars due to the completely different relationship between the judges and the Oscars, the coincidence rate with the Oscars is not high, but as an important award before the Oscars, the exposure and publicity that the Golden Globes can bring cannot be underestimated.

For celebrities, exposure is crucial.

Therefore, at today's nominees luncheon, not only the majority of those who applied for the Oscars came to the scene, but also a considerable number of guests came to cheer.

Ronan introduced Tom Cruise, Will Smith and Zhang Guoshi at the next table and other members of the "Hero" crew, and talked with two friends.

Compared to the members of the "Hero" crew, he is confident that the film can be nominated for the best foreign language film.

If you can get the best foreign language film nomination, take the opportunity to expand the North American screening of "Hero".

Even if it fails to be nominated, it is not the end of the world.

Not far away, Chris Leonard from Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio was sitting.

Compared with "Hero" and the best foreign language film, "Little Pig Peppa" can almost 100% win a nomination for the best animated short film.

The competition for this award is not fierce at all, and even the nomination list is a simple selection of five from seven.

It’s not long since the Oscars ceremony. As Ronan, who is not the first Hollywood leader to participate in the Oscar game, he can perceive the possible outcome of the nomination.

Director Zhang looked at Ronan. There were three Ronan beside a small round table, and asked the male protagonist next to him: "Jett, can you talk to them?"

If you can cooperate with one of Ravel Smith or Tom Cruise...

Jeter-Lee shook his head directly: "I can't talk to them, they and I... how to say, in Hollywood are two completely different levels."

Director Zhang nodded and said nothing.

"You mean the agent didn't try his best when you rushed for the prize?" Will Smith heard Tom Cruise's words and said directly: "What does such an agent want her to do? Just fire her."

Ronan urged: "Tom and her question has not been presented yet, please keep it secret."

Will Smith said quickly: "I know, I won't talk nonsense." He looked at Tom Cruise: "Tom, what do you think?"

Tom Cruise was blunt: "Wait until the nomination list is announced."

Will Smith thought for a while and said, "Yes, if you can get the best actor nomination, it's not suitable to change agent now."

The agent knows too many customers and secrets, and usually nothing. If there is a sudden burst of information before the Oscars ceremony, it will definitely drag down the bonus plan.

For stars like him and Tom Cruise, there are a lot of things hidden under the halo. It is a troublesome thing to not say how big the problem is.

Tom Cruise shrugged: "I guess I might not get the nomination."

While talking, his gaze moved to the left, Ronan also looked over, only to see that after four or five round dining tables, Nicole Kidman is sitting in the "The Moment" crew, and Harvey Wei Enstein was chatting and laughing.

Ronan could see that even if Tom Cruise was an open-minded person, his face was not very pretty.

Everyone knows that it's impossible to take Harvey Weinstein's thick legs to attack Oscar without paying anything.

Will Smith probably saw some of Tom Cruise's thoughts and said: "Even if it doesn't work this time, we still have a chance."

He pointed to Ronan on purpose and joked: "Don't forget, we have a big backer!"

Tom Cruise turned his head back, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Ronan, don't you want Relativity Entertainment to take a few Oscars for best film?"

Ronan helplessly spread his hands: "I think too, but the Oscar is not that you can get it. A few years ago, Harvey Weinstein produced "Shakespeare in Love", which made the academy quite annoyed and chilled him. Three years. In these three years, another DreamWorks has emerged and won three consecutive Oscars for Best Picture. This year, Harvey Weinstein made a comeback. I heard that "Chicago" is a nostalgic song and dance film. They like it very much."

Will Smith snorted coldly: "It's been many years, and they still miss the so-called golden age."

Ronan suddenly said: "We should make a more nostalgic film, such as a black and white silent film."

"Yes." Tom Cruise seemed to be greatly inspired: "Aren't they nostalgic?"

Ronan was also inspired by his own words. Will the black-and-white silent film of black transgender plus homosexuality plus bisexuality be 100% awarded in the future?

Sure enough, I am a genius!

Suddenly, Ronan felt that someone was staring here. He turned his head and found Nicole Kidman.

The Australian actress' eyes fell on Tom Cruise, and she smiled at Tom Cruise. Tom Cruise, who had been calm, breathed suddenly.

"Damn it!" Tom Cruise muttered, "I will fire Pat Kingsley!"

Ronan said: "When you think about it, do it, and Will will support you."

"Yes." Will Smith said.

Ronan decided to change the topic to a lighter one and asked: "Will, you called yesterday and said that you just returned to Los Angeles. I remember that you have been filming "Rivals of the People" for a while, so shouldn't you sneak in to talk to Charlize- Theron has a date, right?"

Will Smith shook his head quickly: "Just kidding, it's an African iceberg. You would be interested in a woman like her who has a cold air all day long? I went to Miami, where the Williams sisters are preparing for Australia. Tennis Open."

Ronan admired: "You pick two again?"

Will Smith seemed to think of something terrible, his face changed, and instead of answering Ronan’s question, he said: "Ronan, Tom, I strongly recommend you to try a professional female athlete Especially the female tennis players, their legs are so strong that they are terribly tight..."

Tom Cruise shook his head: "I am not interested now."

Ronan said, "Sister Williams is terrible. Will, their legs didn't break your waist?"

"Cough...cough..." Will Smith avoided Ronan's question by coughing, and said, "Do you have any favorite female tennis players? I can ask Venus and Serena to help you introduce them. "

Are there any tennis beauties in this era? Ronan thought about it carefully. It seems that Maria Sharapova, who was a beautiful girl in her teenage years, did not make her debut. What kind of training camp is Piggy’s wife Ivan?

Don't say it, it really reminded him of a name.

Ronan asked: "Is Anna Kournikova still playing?"

"I'm not sure about this." Will Smith thought for a while, and said, "It seems that Kournikova has a boyfriend. I guess it's no use. In fact, you can find the tennis princess. Hingis must be very happy to meet you like this. Outstanding male."

Ronan remembers the name: "Swiss Hingis?"

Will Smith nodded: "Yes, she is the former No. 1 woman in the world. She is easy to get started and is willing to interact with outstanding men. It is said that she has a lot of needs and is addicted."

Tom Cruise was a little helpless with these two, and reminded: "You two."

Ronan smiled and said, "Yes, this is the Oscar of the tall, and discussing these is a bit of a downplay."

Will Smith didn't care and said, "Tom, you don't understand, Ronan must have an experience. The more beautiful female celebrities we have, the higher our style."

Ronan said: "Wandering about a few double beds, changing brides several times..."
