King of Hollywood

There was silence at the scene, and everyone stretched their necks waiting for Bernini's announcement, and even Adrian clenched his fists involuntarily. In my memory, the best actress in this year's Oscars was too impressive. Annette Bening, with such advantages—accumulated fame, excellent evaluation, and her husband's network—is still accepted Hilary Swank's upset was too unexpected.

Or this is God's will. From now on, Annette Bening will lose whenever she meets Hilary Swank. Although Adrian has worked hard, handed over the public relations task to Weinstein, and allowed him to use resources to create such a big battle, but who knows if there will be any accidents? Luck is sometimes difficult to say, and every reborn person has to believe in some hidden things. [M]

In a sense, if he can win the best actress for Monica, it proves that his goal is completely achievable, and has already achieved half of it. Adrian took a deep breath and squeezed Monica's hand tightly. Monica, who was concentrating on the stage, didn't pay attention at all.

Bernini looked at it for about two or three seconds, but many people felt that several years had passed, especially when he raised his eyebrows and showed a look of surprise, everyone's heart skipped a beat.

"This unexpected name is also... the name that makes me the happiest, Monica Bellucci, "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily"!" Bernini announced loudly, with a joyful expression, when A year later, another Italian actor won the Oscar for Best Actress. How could he not be happy? !

The audience was silent for about two seconds, and there was loud applause. No matter what dissatisfaction or helplessness there is, it is a courtesy to pay tribute to the winner.

Monica sat in her seat in a daze, without moving for a while, as if she didn't know who "Monica Bellucci" was referring to. It wasn't until the applause suddenly rang in his ears that he turned his head to look at Adrian suspiciously.

"You won, my dear. Go, go and take your honor." Adrian clapped his hands. He said in a low voice with a smile on his face.

Monica's eyes were suddenly covered with mist, and her mouth began to rise and fall obviously. Fortunately, she knew where she was now, and how many cameras and eyes were aimed at her. So he quickly controlled his emotions, didn't rush over to hug him and kiss him, straightened his clothes, and then stood up.

Starting from Adrian, he hugged and congratulated the crew members in turn. Monica came to the stage and took over from Bernini the statuette that symbolizes the Oscar for Best Actress.

"Congratulations, Miss Monica." Bernini said in an admiring tone. For him, it is naturally very happy to see this scene.

"Thank you," the excited Monica nodded, and then turned to everyone in the hall, "Hmm... alright. It's a bit heavier than I thought."

Light laughter sounded.

"Then..." Monica took a deep breath, "Frankly speaking, I don't know how to give a speech. I'm not mentally prepared at all. If I had known it earlier, I should have prepared a manuscript first."

There was another good-natured laugh in the hall.

"I have looked up at this place several times, but I never thought that one day I would really go up. But someone always encouraged me. He said that people's criticism will only make you more mature, and it will only make you sharpen yourself. Persevere, and you will finally get your own glory. Now, this day has finally come, but I don't know what words to thank you, I...I..." She stammered twice, as if hesitating for something, But after two or three seconds, he still said it.

"Thank you, Ed, thank you, I remember every word you said." Monica couldn't help but covered her mouth, her eyes were shining brightly, she took a deep breath before continuing : "Then, I would like to thank the judges for recognizing my efforts, thank my parents for your endless support, and Marino, you are a little man..."

Although Monica's speech was quickly transferred to other people, as long as everyone present had some brains, they would understand what she wanted to say when she stuttered at the beginning. Of course, no one would say anything and no one would care about it.

"Wonderful speech." After Monica returned to her seat, Adrian teased with a smile, and her slightly suspended heart was completely relaxed, "I thought you would really be desperate, dear of."

"If you think about it, it's not too late now." Monica, who had regained her composure, rolled her eyes at him, with indescribable charm in the corner of her eyes.

Adrian chuckled lightly, didn't go on talking, just held her hand and patted it again. Monica didn't say anything more, she turned her gaze to the stage, but only held his hand tighter.

After the best actress, it is naturally the best actor. There is no suspense. Kevin Spacey won the title of best actor. Although he also thanked Adrian in his speech, Adrian didn't pay attention to it anymore, but Blanchett in a golden evening dress who presented the award attracted his attention even more. The red chún opened and closed, and it was easy for him to recall the appearance of Blanchett and Gwyneth eating and swallowing in the bathroom.

Next, there is no doubt that no movie is a rival to "American Beauty", Sam Mendes won best director, and "American Beauty" won best picture.

Adrian did not go up to the Best Film Awards, even though he had the name of a producer, and the producer from Universal went up with Mendes. This was their first small gold medal after they were acquired by the media. people. Of course, Universal will never know that this is just the beginning.

"Hi Ed."

"Hello, Mr. Adrian."

After Adrian came out of the aisle, people kept saying hello to him, and he smiled and responded to them one by one, and then a warm body crashed into his arms: "Where have you been?"

A white smooth silk evening dress with slanted shoulders, long blond hair hanging down straight, with a little āo and charm, making Gwyneth look very charming.

"I went inside to deal with a little matter, so don't worry about it." Adrian smiled and held her waist. At the "Vanity Fair" party, he didn't have to be as restrained as he was at Oscar.

"A little thing?" Gwyneth snorted softly, she was slightly surprised after taking a deep breath when she approached him, "How many times have you done this?"

Adrian shrugged with a smile and didn't answer. He just pulled down his neckline to make himself look more casual, and rubbed it on his neck to make the mark on it fade. Monica's enthusiasm exceeded his expectations, even after she was exhausted in his attack. Those who still refuse to admit defeat still have to work hard to move forward, after a long time of lingering to death. In fact. As early as the Oscar just ended, she leaned into Adrian's ear and said without any scruples: I want you! The unbearable joy of being a successful empress was completely expressed after the release of the shackles, but due to various reasons, she had to endure it until now, so it was naturally extremely intense.

But she is no longer here now, and Monica chose to go back after being passionate. The two of them have now moved back to Los Angeles from Orange County, and it won't be long before they go back.

"I've been here for a while, and it can be regarded as attending the "Vanity Fair" party, and..." Monica, who was exhausted but wrapped around Adrian, said, stroking his face. "So I'd better go back and stay with Diva and Juliet, and show off to Sophie, so that she will work harder to squeeze you in the future."

She chuckled. The tenderness that keeps rubbing ears and temples together: "So, don't come back too late tonight."

"No, honey, it's just the two of us tonight," Adrian replied.

"...Are you serious?" Monica asked, resting her head on his shoulder.

"Of course, this is necessary. It's also my request." Adrian raised his eyebrows, and took another sip on her chún, "You can go back to see the children now, but you must go to my place when the time comes, Tonight. You are my queen."

Faced with such love words, what reason does Monica not agree to? She hardly ever turned him down. What's more, which woman doesn't want her man to be by her side wholeheartedly, even if she has accepted many things.

"Where is Kate? You are not together." Adrian asked at this time.

"Over there, with the new Oscar winner." Gwyneth then pointed to the right of the party hall.

At this time, many people gathered around Spacey to congratulate him, some sincerely, some perfunctory, and some trying to make connections. In short, there were many people and it was very lively.

"How does Best Actor feel, Kevin?" Adrian smiled and gave him a high five.

"Oh, this feeling is indescribable, as if suddenly flying into the air, but with a strong sense of unreality," Spacey said with a glass of wine, "If one day you become an actor, you will also win an Oscar. Best Actor, Ed, and you'll know how I feel right now."

"You know what I think, Kevin." Adrian looked at him very seriously, "You drank too much, really."

The people around burst out laughing immediately, but there were still many envious eyes sweeping around Adrian. In Hollywood, he is probably the only one who can accompany Gwyneth and Blanchett to the left and right. caught.

After saying a few more words, Adrian left immediately, and he didn't forget to throw some bait out before leaving.

"Don't be discouraged, Dan, you still have a chance. Losing to Kevin is just luck. You have been outstanding in the past few years. It's time for the Oscars to give black actors a new best actor." He said to Denzel Washington , and then as if thinking of something, he added: "By the way, I got an interesting script before. The idea is very good, but the specific content is not good, so I am asking people to modify it. Maybe you are willing to try it when the time comes." .”

Washington's eyes lit up immediately: "No problem, Ed, as long as you need."

This is the power of fame. From Pacino to Spacey, there have been too many actors who have received the honor they desire because of Adrian. Denzel Washington can do it without even thinking about it. Decide? There are too many people trying their best to build a relationship with the director of Miracle.

After leaving there, I chatted with Blanchett and Gwyneth, and Adrian walked away immediately. The two women did not entangle too much. They knew very well that, just like last year, Adrian Tonight and even the next few days will be with Monica, no one can change it.

After turning around again, after chatting with Julia, Zeta Jones, or Kirsten respectively, and feeling their different styles, Adrian came to Nicole's side.

"Your wife is an excellent actress, but she's just unlucky." Adrian stood beside Nicole, smiling and greeting the couple in front of him.

The woman is in her early forties, well maintained, mature and charming. And her husband is almost in his early sixties. Although the wrinkles are unstoppable on his face, he can still see his handsome appearance when he was young. They are Annette? Bening and Warren? Tiff fù.

She should have been nominated for Best Actress this year for "American Beauty." Bening, who was then unexpectedly defeated by Swank, is now sitting with Nicole, who was nominated for Best Actress for "American Beauty", chatting and laughing. What an interesting thing. Bening should have been nominated for this year's Oscars. Without "American Beauty", there are other films, and it is said that the film with Gene Hackman called "Day After Day" is very good, Just getting squeezed out by Hilary Swank - okay. That last one is either rumor or Adrian's speculation, but she did get squeezed out anyway, which is unfortunate.

But Adrian's attention was more on Warren Beatty. He won the Lifetime Achievement Award at this year's Oscars. Although he didn't win the Best Actor, it should be enough to have the Best Director and the Lifetime Achievement Award. He had heard a lot of rumors about him in his previous life. But after all, he was born in the 1930s, became famous in the 1960s and 1970s, and gradually faded out after the millennium, so it doesn't matter.

After rebirth, set your own goals. Adrian will inevitably think of such a legendary character, so he naturally understands it. Although in his previous life, he remembered that Beatty once refuted a book about his private life, saying that everything in it was untenable. You'll know later. The content of that book is basically true.

Of course, figures may vary. The words of tens of thousands are still too exaggerated. The 20,000 that Chamberlain boasted were actually only 2,000. Even so, it is already quite remarkable, no wonder it will become the idol of many people.

"Seeing you is like seeing me when I was young, Ed, we are really similar," whispered Beatty and Adrian, who were sitting next to Bening and Nicole, and then Glancing at Nicole, she winked at him ambiguously, "But your skills are much better than mine."

In a sense, he is telling the truth. When treating women, both of them have due respect and are very emotionally involved. Although the starting point is different, Adrian is obviously more rational, but at least both of them It didn't hurt the woman—well, Natalie was an accident, and it could be regarded as a stain on Adrian, but life is like this, it can never be perfect and is always full of variables, and even the reborn can't escape.

"Thank you, but some of your achievements cannot be surpassed." Adrian replied insincerely.

In terms of numbers, he definitely can't compare, even if the number is reduced by half, but in terms of quality, it is even more difficult to say, not to mention that they still actively stay by his side, this alone is enough to make countless playboys difficult. It's on par, let alone surpassed. Just like a rumor described him: the talented one who can coax women is not as powerful as he is, the powerful one who can coax women is not as talented as he is, the powerful and talented one is not as good as he can coax women.

Therefore, Adrian will also be unique in the future.

"Why would they want to come and chat with you?" Adrian asked Nicole after the couple left.

"Meet Warren, we chatted a bit, and then Annette came over." Nicole replied.

Adrian raised his eyebrows, and then laughed dumbly. Warren Beatty, who has been romantic for almost a lifetime, will get married. Apart from feeling old and wanting to settle down, there may be reasons why Bening can take care of him. .

"It's a pity that you didn't get the best actress." He changed the subject and asked with a smile.

"There is always a chance." Nicole's blue eyes stared at Adrian, her tone was very flat.

This made him a little surprised and a little clear. From the moment Monica was announced at the awards ceremony, he observed Nicole intentionally or unintentionally. The crew of "American Beauty" and "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" were very close. . Basically, among the other three Best Actress candidates, except for Streep, who was not surprised because of his rich experience, Julianne Moore and Hilary Swank couldn't help showing disappointed looks, But Nicole was always calm, as she is now.

"You said so?" she added immediately.

It's not Streep's kind of calmness that sees through and accepts no matter what the outcome is, but... more confident, the current failure is just a calmness that lays the foundation for the future. Obviously, Monica's successful empress seal has made her think about something thoroughly.

"Oh, Ed, so you are here." A voice came into the ears of the two people who were looking at each other at this time, "There is also the beautiful Miss Nicole."

"Hey, Don, how are you?" Adrian stood up immediately, and Nicole, who was about to say something, had to stand up too.

"It's not good at all." The very formally dressed old man complained, "I searched all over here to find you, you know I'm going to be 70 soon."

"Then sit down first, what do you want." Adrian smiled and asked him to take a seat, and then snapped his fingers to call the messenger.

Donald Newhouse, the younger brother of Shi Yi Newhouse—that is, Samuel Owen Newhouse Jr.—is one of the heads of the Newhouse Group. He obviously had something to discuss with Adrian, so after a few pleasantries, Nicole left knowingly.

"It's really emotional. I saw you with Shi Yi in a few years, and she was still sitting with Cruise." Newhouse looked at Nicole who was leaving and gave a meaningful smile. Adrian shrugged and made a gesture of please speak,

"I heard that your M record company has some problems recently, is that true?" Q! .
