146 - Good Luck Boy!

"Hi, Wayne!"

Hearing someone greeted, Wayne looked up and saw the radiant Uma Thurman. At this moment, the man around her aroused his great interest.

"Hi, Uma." He stood up and shook hands gently with the actress who had worked with him. He turned his eyes to the man beside him.

This person's recognizable facial features look casual and free. Later, netizens nicknamed him "Pixie". When he saw him, a picture appeared in Wayne's mind. He proudly said "Niu Coin" in Chinese!

"Hello, Director Greenberg, Quentin Tarantino!" The ruffian Quentin stretched out his hand.

"I'm glad to meet you, Director Tarantino!"

After saying hello, Quentin was obviously very interested in him. He should have intentionally asked Uma Thurman to help him get to know him. You should know that the relationship between this woman and Wayne is very average.

The pissy director had a lot of body language when he spoke. At this moment, he waved his hands and gestured, while saying, "I have seen all your videos. Do you know that our shooting philosophy and style have many similarities. Especially for those beautiful bloody shots, oh my god! It's like a negotiated..."

Wayne kept smiling and listening to his chatter. Uma Thurman patted himself on the forehead, poked him hard, and whispered to him. "Dear, it's time for us to leave."

"Sorry, we can talk together if we have time." Before leaving, the director with a pretty look even gave him a business card.

He handed Nina the business card with only the name and phone number written on it, and Wayne smiled and shook his head and sat down.

The Australian beauty who had been watching them greeting each other, staring at Uma Thurman's back and said, "This woman was still with Ethan Hawke before, but she didn't expect that she would be replaced by this director so soon."

"Stop gossiping, Nami."

If Uma Thurman didn't kick Ethan Hawk, how could he get along with Quentin? Just think about it, you can understand that Quentin and Uma's most important masterpiece should have started filming. Only after "Kill Bill" will the violent aesthetics of this ruffian director be perfected.

The Oscar ceremony began at the right time, interrupting Naomi Watts's intention to continue gossiping. She and Uma Thurman have never dealt with each other very much, and they also belittled the woman in their words.

The host Billy Chris wore a clown mask intriguingly, and the first thing he said was to tease Wayne. "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the beautiful and charming Gotham City. I am your old friend Arthur's clown! Hey, Wayne, don't just applaud, you irresponsibly sent me to the whole of America. How do I go back now?"

"ha!……"

The audience was filled with kind laughter and applause, and Wayne also stood up with a smile and bent slightly towards the audience.

It was not only Wayne himself who was teased. Billy Chris, who was a talk show actor, made up a big set of words, from Al Pacino's "Smelling the Scent to Knowing Women" to Robert Downey Jr.'s "Chaplin", and almost all the shortlisted actors were teased.

Then everyone discovered that the only highlight of this grand event might be Billy Chris' talk show. After entering the formal stage, various boring and nostalgic performances began, with some small awards interspersed in the middle.

It was not until Naomi Watts gently pushed him that Wayne retreated from his distracted state. Anne Banklaoft and Dustin Hoffman were introducing the list of nominations for the best original scripts.

"…"Lorenzo's Oil", "Unforgivable", "Crying Game", "Escape from the Deadly Town", "The Couple and Couple". "Dustin Hoffman paused deliberately, then smiled and said to the microphone: "The one who won the best original script is ~ "Escape from the Deadly Town", Wayne Greenberg, congratulations!"

Although this was expected, Wayne also got the first little golden man in his life. He buttoned the suit and hugged Naomi Watts.

"Dear, congratulations!"

"Thank you, Nami!"

Then he hugged everyone in the crew one by one. The last one happened to be the funny Will Smith. He hugged Wayne and shouted loudly in his ear. "Brother, you got that damn little golden man, congratulations!"

Amid the warm applause of the audience, Wayne took over the Little Golden Man from Dustin Hoffman. Although this thing is not a particularly heavy award, it is at least a comfort for him.

"First of all, I want to thank the Academy for giving me this affirmation. This is the biggest compliment for my hard work. I also want to thank everyone in the crew for their efforts. It is you who made this film into the Oscars. Finally, I want to thank my father, Ruben Greenberg!

Dad, thank you for risking losing your pension money and paying for my first film. You taught me how to be a man. Finally, I will say to my mother Anna Greenberg, Mom, I will be your pride!”

After saying that, he waved the little golden man in his hand in the applause and walked towards the backstage of the music hall.

Wayne's award did not cause any trouble, and the award ceremony is still in progress.

At this moment, in the back row of the music hall, a person sat up immediately after hearing the name of Ruben Greenberg. The executive of Xinshi Film was sitting here, and the one who realized that Xinshi's president Shay.

There was a voice that only he could hear from Shay's mouth. "Wayne Greenberg, Ruben Greenberg! I should have thought of it long ago, but I didn't expect you to have grown so old!"

Shay knows very well what this former little "nephew" has a relationship with Warner Brothers. The new Line Film Company, which he now holds, is facing a fusion with Time Warner. Although it was indirectly acquired, it can be considered a family.

However, the only advantage is that Shay also retains the controlling rights and independent management rights of Xinshi, and does not have to be too constrained by Warner, but can enjoy Warner's resources.

"Ruben, I don't know if your son knows what happened back then..."

His voice disappeared into the noisy music hall.

There are no upset movies in this Oscar. The Best Change of the script was given to "Howard Manor". The Best Supporting Actress was Marisa Tome and "My Cousin Winnie". Gene Hackman won the Best Supporting Actor for his performance in "Unforgivable".

The most important awards are exactly the same as the media predicted. The best actor is Al Pacino in "Smelling the Scent", Emma Thompson in "Howard Manor", and the best film is "Unforgivable"!

The best director is the old cowboy who is expected to be, Clint Eastwood "Unforgivable"!

After the Shen Chang's award ceremony, most of the actresses on the scene changed from being weak and then became refreshed. Everyone was ready to attend the party held by Vanity Fair.

This is the main purpose of many people coming to participate in the Oscars. Most powerful people in Hollywood will appear at the party. This party is full of opportunities. As long as you can catch one, it may change the fate of many people.

All of this was arranged by Warner Bros. Wayne had to move to the Four Seasons Hotel with the crowd. Jeff Robinoff began to take him around to say hello to others.

"The videotape of "Escape from the Deadly Town" will start to be distributed across the United States tomorrow. With the name of Oscar Little Golden Man, Warner Bros. is going to make a lot of money this time."

Not far away, Townsend Rossman held a wine glass and whispered to Jane De Bonte next to him. Bont had just signed a contract with 20th Century Fox and was preparing to start preparing for a new project "Speed ​​of Life and Death".

"Townsen, you missed him when you might be able to invite him back when his next project starts. Of course, it depends on Wayne Greenberg's summer performance." Bonter looked at the young director with envy. Recently, his videos have caused discussion across the United States.

He looked at Wayne again with a look of regret, and Townsend Rossman said with a sigh: "We tried to invite him back to direct "Happy Death Day 2", but unfortunately he was rejected by his agent. It is unlikely that in the past two years, he has been tied to Warner Bros.

Even I took a look at him in this matter. Who would have thought that such a young man had his success not by chance!”

The conversation not far away could not reach Wayne's ears. He was obviously drinking a little too much at this moment. He was about to call Naomi Watts back early, but the big man who came up to say hello forced him to stop his own steps.

"Wayne, you did a very good job. Many people are watching you. Don't be sad about Oscars. As long as you keep improving, some things are destined to be given to you!"

Wayne felt relieved when he was coming up. "Thank you, Mr. Spielberg, I will continue to work hard!"

This old Jewish man who picked up the camera was the best director, and put down the camera was a businessman. He should have a very good impression of Wayne, and he regarded him as his own person in a few words.

Steven Spielberg looked like he was supporting his juniors, but in fact he was really a good person to Jewish descendants.

"If you have time, you can play golf together. I will introduce Jeffrey Carsonberg and George Lucas to you. It is already very rare in our group, talented young people like you."

This gave Wayne a huge surprise. He knew that although he had some status in the circle, he was still far from these Jewish bosses.

So his mind moved and took advantage of this rare opportunity to send an invitation. "Director Spielberg, if you have time, I want to invite you to the premiere of "The Joker" and see the stylized film I made!"

“When?”

"It's soon, it's scheduled for mid-May!" Wayne said quickly.

The old Jewish man frowned and thought for a while, and finally nodded. "I will go. Remember to ask Warner to send me an invitation. Good luck boy, just in time!"

After politely exchanging contact information with the other party and saying goodbye, Wayne felt as if he was dreaming. These characters were something he could not get at for the time being, and this was no longer a matter of status.

He quickly found Jeff who was chatting and told him the news. Even Jeff was sighing. "Good luck boy, this year is an important year for Spielberg. I didn't expect that he would promise you to attend the premiere in the gap between the two films."

Damn it! Wayne woke up instantly, it was "Schindler's List" and "Jurassic Park"!
