Chapter 794

Simon was at domay point with women and children when the Oscars ceremony on the other side of the holy citizen hall opened at six o'clock in the evening.

Sophia fishy flew over from Europe today.

There's a regular melisandro party tonight, but the women don't come for it. They're invited by Janet.

The reason is the latest pregnancy test.

I have known for a long time that women are pregnant with twins, but I didn't pay special attention to gender, otherwise I could have been confirmed by DNA testing in London. After four months of pregnancy, routine pregnancy examination, fetal gender is determined by ultrasound examination, the result is not two men or two women, but a man and a woman.

Twins.

Janet was the first to get the news and told Simon that Simon's feeling about it was that last night's names just happened to be used. The boy's name was Greenwich westero and the girl's name was snow westero.

Then Janet offered to invite Sophia to Los Angeles for a few days.

Sophia has rarely come back to North America since she was pregnant, avoiding both Jennie and her two children.

Even if Janet didn't make a big fight about it, she was a bit embarrassed after all.

However, since Janet invited herself, the woman didn't refuse and took the opportunity to come.

Simon left work early that day. Fortunately, the imaginary scene didn't happen. He returned to domay point manor at more than 4 p.m., where three women and a few little guys were enjoying themselves. Sophia brought a lot of gifts, two Janet's and three children's, and set up a room.

After all.

It's not surprising that there are so many people.

Sophia's EQ is no worse than Simon's.

Not only that, after Simon left work early, although Sophia looked at him with deep affection, she still tactfully pushed Simon to the opposite of her and the two jennies. In her words, she fought against Simon's playful behavior. All three of them were victims.

Both Jennie are very smart, probably understand Sophia's intention, but they are very cooperative.

Simon is also very cooperative, a look of recognition of punishment.

After the Oscars ceremony in the holy citizen hall, the TV was turned on specially.

Another good topic.

When people get along with each other, the biggest problem is that they have nothing to say. As long as there is a chat, the relationship will be closer unconsciously.

The broadcaster of the award ceremony is still ABC, which has not changed for a long time. However, the host of this session is David Letterman, the host of CBS "David's late night show".

Danielis entertainment has recently launched an investigation and contact with three TV networks, the real purpose of which is, of course, ABC.

Simon also found out that NBC has Jay Leno's "Jay Leno tonight show" and CBS has David Letterman's "David late show". Only ABC, one of the three old TV networks, lacks a late night talk show. At the same time, there is only one low rating night news show "night line".

Because there are usually many big names present, popular talk shows are quite popular TV programs. From Oprah Winfrey, Jay Leno, David Letterman and others who often rank in the top of the TV industry's income list, we can see that the salaries of TV people are directly related to the popularity of programs in the commercial operation of American TV stations, so there is even a gap Many news presenters get tens of millions of dollars a year.

At present, the two most popular late night talk shows, "Jay Leno tonight show" is very popular, which can bring NBC 150 million dollars of advertising revenue every year. Because of its short start, David late night show is temporarily inferior to the other party, which can also make CBS earn 50 million dollars every year. On the contrary, ABC's "night line" can only bring 10 million dollars of advertising revenue to the TV network every year.

Seeing David Letterman on the Oscars stage, Simon wrote it down quietly.

If you win ABC in the future, even if you can't replace "night line" with other late night talk shows, you have to cultivate a similar program yourself.

Obviously, he didn't adapt to the rhythm of the Oscars. David Letterman, who tried to host the award ceremony for the first time, was very embarrassed. Simon didn't feel at all because of all kinds of jokes and jokes about last year's popular films. The reaction of the audience was far less lively than that of Billy Christo.

Fortunately, this late night show host's gloomy opening did not affect this award ceremony which is destined to be remembered.

Since Forrest Gump won the first best film editing award, the atmosphere in the holy citizen hall has been very warm.

There are too many excellent films in this year. Both Forrest Gump, which has won 13 nominations, and Batman: the rise of the dark knight, which has only won three nominations for technical awards, have attracted much attention. Four Weddings and a funeral, stealing the line of fire, burning years, little women and other films are also quite popular. They are far from the Oscar losers later In the last stage, the audience of the nominated films have not seen many scenes of decline.In addition, whether Tom Hanks, who was hot talked about by the media beforehand, won the best actor Oscar after last year's Philadelphia story, has also become the biggest suspense of this year's award ceremony.

An hour after the awards ceremony, the westrow family began to have dinner, and the topic moved from the living room to the dining room.

In this way, until more than 8 o'clock, most of the awards ceremony was held, and dinner was over, danielis entertainment had won 9 of this year's 26 nominations. Considering that the following important awards will basically fall on Forrest Gump, we can get at least half of the 26 nominations tonight.

After dinner, Simon will also leave for downtown.

It's not just that his boss is going to show his group to tonight's winners in person at melisandro's party, but also some other meetings he's scheduled to meet with Stallone to talk about the game of the brave just agreed today and, most importantly, Warren Buffett will be here tonight.

Berkshire Hathaway, run by Warren Buffett, is a major shareholder of Metro ABC Group, the parent company of ABC television network. They are very close friends with Tom Murphy, the current chairman and CEO of Metro ABC. They basically maintain the same attitude towards ABC.

Danielis entertainment wants to buy Metro ABC, but Warren Buffett is a hurdle. However, as long as the old Omaha investor agrees, the matter can be basically settled.

Melisandra's party has long been out of Sophia's hands. Women don't rush to the Sunset Tower Hotel Downtown with Simon.

When Simon left, Janet, who took the man out of the house, was still very aggressive. She also said that some guy didn't have to come back tonight. If they wanted to sleep together, they would talk to each other.

Arriving at the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood, it's already 9:30.

The Oscars are over.

Forrest Gump has won eight gold medals, including the core best picture, best director and best actor awards, with a good score of 13 points and 8 points, which is higher than the original 13 points and 6 points. Obviously, Denise's strong public relations offensive has played a role.

Tom Hanks has also become the first actor in Hollywood history to win the best actor Oscar for two consecutive years, creating a new Hollywood history.

In addition, danielis also won six gold medals in non core awards such as best score, best documentary feature and so on.

26 nominations and 14 awards.

A big win.

After a year of active understatement last year, daenerys became the biggest Oscar winner again.

And it deserves it.

Because there were so many good films last year, most of them came from danielis entertainment. At the end of the award ceremony, there were even voices on the Internet about some non award winning films.

Simon arrived at the party and just congratulated the cast of Forrest Gump. Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife came over. As last year's best-selling "true lies" actor, Arnold will not be absent from this year's Oscar ceremony. Even if there is no agreement on the game of the brave project, it does not prevent melisandra from sending an invitation to the other party.

Unless it's something that touches Simon's red line, he never turns over because business doesn't work out.

Arnold didn't beat around the Bush and said, "Simon, I heard you want Sylvie to take over the project. Frankly, Sylvie is a good guy, but he doesn't have the talent for comedy. Maybe we can talk about it again, right?"

Before Simon had time to answer, Stallone had already brought his girlfriend, Jennifer flavin, to the front of him. He warmly exchanged greetings with them, and then said, "what are you talking about?"

Simon won't let them fight at his party. He said with a smile, "nothing," and said directly to Schwarzenegger, "I'm sorry, Arnold. I'm sorry this time. Maybe we'll have a chance to cooperate next time."

He gestured to Stallone, nodded to Arnold, and turned away.

He was oppressed by Schwarzenegger for several years, but he had been cheated at the beginning. It was rare for him to get the upper hand. Before he turned around with Simon, Stallone could not help but pick on his old opponent.

Hollywood news is always dressed fast.

During the day, Schwarzenegger immediately received the news that daenerys turned to Stallone. At that time, he realized that Simon's so-called alternative plan was not joking at all. At the same time, he also realized his mistake.

In recent years, Schwarzenegger also saw that special effects movies are the trend of Hollywood, and the traditional muscle action movies have become less and less popular. For the game of the brave, he was determined to win. After reading the original script outline, Arnold thought that he was the only one to play the role, so he wanted to bargain with danielis.

Simon gave his last offer last week, and Schwarzenegger hesitated and almost agreed.

He knows danielis's strength in contract negotiations.However, under the persuading of the agent, in fact, he wanted to insist on it again, so he refused again. Unexpectedly, it was so yellow.

Watching westero and Stallone leave, Schwarzenegger will inevitably anger his agent for a moment.

There's a little bit of uneasiness.

Just now, Maria schleiver, Schwarzenegger's wife, who had been standing quietly, saw her husband's uncertain expression and said in a low voice: "Arnold, I don't think it's nothing. Isn't Warner inviting you to participate in their" evaporation secret order ", we don't lack opportunities."

Schwarzenegger is a big man, but his brain matches his size. He smiles bitterly and shakes his head. "It's different, honey."

It is precisely because there is no lack of film contract in hand that Schwarzenegger will have the courage to bargain with danielis. Warner's "evaporation secret order" is one of the most important projects, and the other side has also given a full amount of US $15 million salary offer.

However, "evaporation secret order" is still Arnold's old-fashioned action film. He knows very well that playing in such a film will not bring him any breakthrough, but just repeat the past performance. Even if the project fails, it will damage his coffee position. Stallone's popularity has declined in recent years. The key reason is that he has been repeating his own image on the screen, leading to the audience's growing boredom.

Denise's game of the brave is different.

This is not only the most popular special effects blockbuster in recent years, but also the character suitable for their obvious actions. Moreover, the setting is also different from the common lone hero in the past, which is absolutely refreshing for the audience.

Now, depending on the situation, it's completely out of the question.

On the other hand, even if Stallone is chosen, Simon still thinks Arnold is more suitable.

But now that the decision has been made, Simon will not change it easily.

This film is a challenge for Stallone. If he succeeds, he can break through the shackles of his previous role. For Simon, it is also a breakthrough attempt.

Even failure is nothing.

Daenerys entertainment can now stand up to the failure of one or two projects.

What's more, it's a foreign cooperation project.

Simon launched these projects just to keep Hollywood in a balanced state of mind, but he didn't want to help other film companies at all.

Stallone sent his girlfriend to the balcony of the bar on the top floor of the Sunset Tower Hotel where the party was held, and found a seat. The action star spoke seriously about his ideas on the project, and Simon began to bring up his own opinions.

The key to success of Stallone's participation in this project is a sense of contrast.

One of the reasons for the success of the original film is the lighthearted and humorous tone of the film. However, it does not mean that Stallone wants to be funny in it. This is mainly the work of two supporting roles.

In Jushi Johnson's version, Johnson is still acting, not responsible for too many funny scenes, but successfully added the contrast setting of being possessed by an otaku, and showed it very successfully. This time, Stallone has to do the same, and he has to integrate his own style.

In fact, it's the same as the movie "brother dragon and brother mouse" that opened Schwarzenegger's comedy career. In "brother dragon and brother mouse", it's Denny DeVito who is responsible for making fun, and the sharp contrast between the two brothers whose images are totally out of tune.

Stallone's emphasis on this project is extraordinary. They chatted for more than half an hour. If it wasn't for Bryce Levison who came to say hello and reminded Stallone of Simon's other parties, the action star would have wanted to continue talking with Simon.

When Stallone left, Simon looked at the woman who was wearing a silver sequined dress like a mermaid tonight, patted herself, and asked with a smile, "what's the matter with you?"

Bryce Levinson was not shy either. She squeezed directly beside Simon, but pointed to the bar hall and said with a smile, "don't blame me for disturbing you. I was encouraged."

Simon followed Bryce's direction and saw nothing special.

However, it soon became clear that she should have been sent by grace spelt. Grace said on the phone at the weekend that she would come to the west coast today. She didn't expect to bring Bryce Levison with her. Maybe, Bryce took the initiative to come up. This woman was severely cleaned up by Janet in Florida last time, but she didn't seem to have a long memory.
