518 - Vanity Fair
The 69th Academy Awards ceremony finally came to an end in a special and turbulent way. The best foreign language film, Little Golden Man, was awarded to the Czech film "Give Me a Dad". Sadly, almost no one cares about the belonging of this Little Golden Man, and whether it is the guests on the scene or the media around the world, they are staring at the winning crew of "The Walker of the Stop".
Today's Oscars are actually infinitely close to the length of more than ten years ago. To watch the award ceremony for several hours, even the fans sitting in front of the TV need some physical strength, let alone the participants of this grand event.
Faced with the possibility of being broadcast live on TV at any time, most of the guests sitting in the front row will always maintain elegant smiles. The entire awards ceremony lasted, which was no less than a day of high-intensity physical work.
Every time the participants miss the Oscars decades ago. The earliest event lasted only fifteen minutes. Compared with the Oscars before, today's Oscars are like a dull old man, but their charm has never diminished. Countless movie stars and onlookers still yearn for the Oscars that attract world-renowned attention once a year.
The 69th Oscar ended with a complete victory in "The Walker". The film received nine nominations and won a total of six Little Golden Man, including the first prize of Best Picture, and Wayne Xinniannian's Best Director.
After the crew received the honor of Best Picture together, facing the siege of backstage reporters, Robert and Mia, who received the Little Golden Man, tacitly put their Little Golden Man in front of Wayne.
Everyone understood what the two meant, and Jennifer Connery followed closely and put his best supporting actress, Little Golden Man, in front of that man.
Both the crew members and dozens of reporters on the scene knew that the reason why they were recognized by the Oscars was inseparable from the men waiting to be interviewed. In order to express their gratitude to him, no one minded "loaning" the little golden man for the time being.
The six small golden men opened in rows to the long table in front of Wayne. The media's camera flashes even reflected the golden lights of these small golden men. However, it is obvious that the reporters did not stay on these small golden men for too long. The tough-looking man sitting behind the table is the focus of all media's eyes.
Four of Hollywood's most representative top directors were invited by the Academy to award him the highest honor, and there are too many topics to hype here. Nine nominations and six awards may not be among the top few in the list of Little Golden Man, but the treatment he received is definitely the most dazzling in the history of the Oscars in recent decades.
The award ceremony was completely over, but the grand event had just begun. Except for Wayne, who was surrounded by reporters in the backstage and constantly answering nutritional questions, the celebrities who had already left the venue were almost transferred to the Hilton Hotel banquet hall half a block away as long as they received the invitation.
Where will the annual "Vanity Fair" cocktail party that appears with Oscars is a very high-standard social platform. No one can easily reject the invitation from "Vanity Fair". In fact, being able to receive their invitation means that their status has reached a certain point.
Twenty minutes later, facing the reluctant reporters, Wayne finally escaped from the backcourt under the escort of Sergei. What surprised him was that not only Naomi Watts and Nina were waiting for him in front, but also a familiar woman.
This woman has short hair, which is different from the countless bright female stars tonight. She is wearing a very simple professional outfit. Even before getting close, the professionalism and sharp temperament emitted from her whole body have already told Wayne that this woman is not simple.
"Director Greenberg, congratulations on being the biggest winner tonight."
Before anyone could introduce the woman, the woman stretched out her right hand and a warm smile rose on her face. "We have seen it before, maybe you don't remember it. I am Tina Brown from Vanity Fair, and I'm waiting for you here."
He shook hands with the other party calmly. After seeing the assistant lady's move, he politely said: "Hello, Ms. Brown."
He may not know this woman when she meets her, but this woman has a legendary career. As long as she lives and works in this circle, she will more or less hear about it.
When Tina Brown took over the magazine in 1984, the circulation of Vanity Fair had shrunk to 250,000 copies, and the advertising revenue was not even a question. It was this powerful professional woman who took over the magazine and carried out drastic reforms, from the management of magazine staff, editing policies, to the content and packaging of magazines, and from beginning to end.
In the end, this inconspicuous magazine, with the woman's celebrity effect and fascinating reports, and the concept of extreme sensitivity of in-community news, successfully made "Vanity Fair" the best-selling magazine in the circle and even North America in more than a decade.
More importantly, this magazine not only has strong advertising money-making ability, but also follows the pace of Oscars. It started to create this Vanity Fair cocktail party a few years ago, and its influence is no longer limited to the media field.
"Ha, everyone knows that you don't like socializing."
Tina Brown shrugged with a sincere smile and said, "So I'm waiting here specifically, hoping to invite you, the biggest successor tonight, to attend the cocktail party held at Vanity Fair. Well, even if you tie it, I'll tie you up, the protagonist of you tonight."
Wayne nodded with a smile. To some extent, this woman's face is indeed great. Although Vanity Fair mainly reports celebrity gossip and entertainment news, it has a good relationship with Warner Bros., and there is no reason not to give the other party this face.
Regardless of how fierce the Oscars are, after the grand event, the party held at Vanity Fair became the prelude to everyone's carnival.
The Oscars have come to an end, but the TV broadcast has not ended. Several well-known film critics have made various summaries and analysis like in previous years. Compared with the endless talk during the award ceremony, Roger Albert's face turned pale at this time, and he listened silently as his colleagues sang praises to Wayne.
In fact, his initial judgment and basis were correct. There were more than 6,000 members in the entire North American Academy of Film Arts and Sciences, and everyone's ideas were impossible. Even when facing the strongest public relations, the only ones that could affect were those small group of identities.
Judging from the rules of the Oscars over the years, the final prize-winning results are not something that participants can control. Before the entire party is held, there are only two people who can learn the prize results in advance. PwC's accountant partner in charge of counting votes and Frank Pearson, the chairman of the college.
Combined with the opening of the evening with special significance and the four major directors were invited to present awards on the same stage, if you think about it carefully, the Academy and the four top directors in the circle revealed some of the award results in advance, which actually does not comply with the Oscar rules.
However, even Roger Albert, who is already suffering from cancer, is not stupid enough to question everyone. To put it bluntly, film critics make a living by relying on the entire Hollywood film industry. No one is willing to destroy their own jobs. Moreover, for those of them, the money may be a golden job.
Sitting in front of the camera, the Pulitzer Prize winner finally got to the end of the show, without saying hello to anyone, and hurriedly left the studio alone.
"His face was a little wrong."
Kenneth Turan's tone was filled with unconcealed gloating, and raised his elbow and gently touched David Denby beside him.
"Who knows."
David Denby shook his head in confusion, continued to pack up his belongings and prepare to go back to the hotel early. He also wanted to write a special film review for "The New Yorker" before dawn tomorrow morning, and he had no intention of paying attention to others.
"Oh my God!"
Just as everyone was tidying up and about to leave the studio, a backstage staff member hurried in and ran straight to the producer's position. At the same time, his exclamation attracted everyone's attention.
"Ted, damn, Roger fell in the dressing room and has been rushed to the hospital by his agent. Should we do something?"
"Shit...why didn't he wait to leave the TV station and then fall! f**k!" The TV station program producer frowned and sweared. That guy fell down in the background. If something really happened, they would undoubtedly have to take part of the responsibility.
Almost everyone heard the news, but everyone's movements were paused, and then they accelerated their pace of leaving as if they hadn't heard anything.
"You said, why did Roger hate Wayne?"
After leaving the TV station's broadcasting room, Todd McCarthy, who was also a Los Angeles native, walked towards the parking lot while expressing doubts about Kenneth Tulane beside him.
"Don't know."
Shaking his head, he was also puzzled by this incident. "I remember a few years ago, Roger accepted Warner Bros.'s public relations, praised Wayne's new film, and called on his supporters to go to the cinema to buy tickets to watch. I think there should be some problems between him and Warner Bros."
The two looked at each other and did not continue to mention the topic. Before the car caught fire, Kenneth Tulan lowered the window and asked, "Are you going to attend the cocktail party held in Vanity Fair? It's time to go now."
"Let's go, let's go together."
