Chapter 408: King of the World
I won the Oscar for Best Director once, but there is a new feeling every time I go on stage.
If it was the first time for "Chicago" to go on stage to win an award, little Gilbert was still a little nervous. When he went on stage to receive the award this time, little Gilbert seemed to be at ease and had the air of a general.
In the live broadcast room of ABC TV station, Kenneth Turan has completely stopped talking.
He just made a long speech about the reasons why little Gilbert will never win the best director. The result was a slap in the face, and little Gilbert won the Best Director trophy for the second time.
So Kenneth Turan acted like a clown just now, and now he can only shut up completely.
However, many netizens watching the live broadcast would not let him go. They launched a denunciation of Kenneth Turan in the chat room, and Kenneth Turan's social account was also occupied by Little Gilbert fans.
"Joker, you behave like a clown, are you still a professional film critic?"
"When my dogs comment, their level is higher than yours."
"Scream again? You're not even a bit worse than Roger Ebert."
Although the fans scolded them vigorously, it did not affect Kenneth Turan's continued clamor. He quickly predicted that "The Return of the King" would not win the best picture.
As soon as these words came out, there was an even stronger impact.
There is no hot search algorithm these days, otherwise Kenneth Turan would have been criticized by netizens for being a hot search.
But no one noticed that behind the camera where the camera was not focused, there was an uncontrollable smile on the corner of Kenneth Turan's mouth.
He could imagine that he was scolded by Little Gilbert's fans, but these fans could not imagine how much money he made by blackmailing Little Gilbert.
When he thought of little black Gilbert eating up all the heat, Kenneth Turan instantly felt energized, and he no longer cared about the scoldings.
In the blink of an eye, little Gilbert has walked onto the stage, received the Oscar statuette from Harrison Ford, and then raised the statuette above his head.
At this moment, at least 50 million viewers across the United States saw this scene and witnessed the moment when little Gilbert became a god.
Little Gilbert didn't take a page from James Cameron and shout the words "I am the king of the world."
After waiting for the applause of the award ceremony to subside, little Gilbert put down the trophy he was holding in the air and delivered his acceptance speech.
"Thank you, thank you everyone, tonight is a wonderful moment, thank you to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for recognizing me."
Little Gilbert's father did not come to the scene. When the old man saw what little Gilbert said, the sexy girl in his arms couldn't help but laugh and said: "This kid showed a hint of hypocrisy in his acceptance speech. pretend."
The sexy girl groped the old man's body, but couldn't help but stare at the high-spirited little Gilbert on the TV.
I thought to myself: How wonderful it would be if I were with little Gilbert instead of this bad old man!
However, the sexy girl soon knew that she was delusional when she saw the TV broadcast showing Charlize Theron, Anne Hathaway, Scarlett Johansson and other Hollywood beauties.
In this case, it’s better to serve the old man well, and maybe become little Gilbert’s stepmother!
Unfortunately, the sexy girl’s thoughts behind this are also wishful thinking.
The old man just enjoys it, the kind that doesn't recognize people when he lifts his belt.
Compared to the hypocritical way in which he thanked the college, Gilbert's later words of thanks to the team members were very sincere.
The reason is simple. Although he is the most eye-catching and glorious person tonight, movies are never about personal heroism.
Without the help of an excellent, well-coordinated team, even the combination of Gilbert Jr., Spielberg, and James Cameron would not be able to complete the production of a blockbuster movie.
Gilbert Jr. thanked every major member of the team, and finally added: "Tens of thousands of us in front of and behind the scenes have worked hard for this magnificent epic.
Tonight's award belongs to you. "
Then, Gilbert Jr. thanked the fans who have always supported him and listed the great success of the "Lord of the Rings" series.
Little Gilbert praised: "My fans are the cutest fans, they are always patient and tolerant of my works.
This is why I can't let them down. I hope to continue to bring better works to repay the support of these fans. "
Finally, little Gilbert thanked the old man: "I also want to thank one person, and that is my father.
My father was the first person who inspired me to pursue a career in the film industry. He taught me a lot of truths and has always supported me to continue on the path of my film career.
He once said that we all must learn to try bravely and take the next step bravely.
Don’t be afraid just because the road ahead is unclear.
If you don’t take this step, you won’t know what unknown surprises are waiting for you ahead.
I've always kept this quote in mind, and luckily, now I know what kind of surprise it is.
But I hope there will be more surprises waiting for me in the future.
Thank you everyone..." The old man in front of the TV was very pleased, although he didn't know whether he said those words.
Perhaps the biggest label that the old man has left to the outside world today is that he is the father of the famous director Gilbert Jr.
The famous producer who once dominated Hollywood is now gone.
But the old man has no regrets. His greatest pride in his life is not the days when he once roamed Hollywood and slept with Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn.
Instead, he trained little Gilbert, a super genius in the film industry, and allowed his son to revitalize the Landrini family.
By the way, I heard that Naomi Watts is also pregnant. There are so many little Gilbert women, and the Landellini family will not be alone in the future.
Spreading branches and leaves is not a problem, and the family inheritance is established.
As for the fans in front of the TV, the more emotional ones cried when they heard little Gilbert's affectionate confession.
The twelve years that accompanied little Gilbert's growth were nothing short of the growth of movie fans.
Although many movie fans actually joined in one after another halfway through, this does not prevent fans from empathizing with little Gilbert.
The reaction of little Gilbert's friends was much simpler. Tom Cruise smiled and applauded. He was claimed to be little Gilbert's good friend.
DiCaprio smiled even more happily, even though his starring role in "Gangs of New York" failed.
The friendship between Leonardo DiCaprio and Gilberto was a close one. When Madonna Ciccone was entangled with Gilberte, it was DiCaprio who stepped forward and helped Gilberto solve the problem.
Among the women who came to the scene, Scarlett looked at little Gilbert with admiration. She knew that her little brother Gilbert was the most powerful.
The glorious and majestic figure of little Gilbert had long been burned into her heart.
Anne Hathaway applauded gently, Charlize Theron held the Best Actress trophy and wondered whether the trophy display stand at Melon Manor should be expanded.
Cameron Diaz smiled, thinking about the future operations of Cantaloupe Studio, of which she was one of the executives.
Jennifer Connelly is also very happy. Although she has not been following little Gilbert for a long time, she has gained a lot.
She felt that little Gilbert was different from other powerful people in Hollywood. Those big shots only had unspeakable desires in their eyes, but little Gilbert always had light in his eyes.
Naomi Watts in the Melon Manor watched the TV broadcast, touched her belly, and thought to herself: My child, this is your father. You have to work hard and learn from your father in the future!
Everyone has different moods, but at this time, those who are anti-Little Gilbert and hate Little Gilbert are not in a very beautiful mood.
David Ellison was one of them. Seeing little Gilbert win the statuette, he was so angry that he broke a set of porcelain teacups from China.
The most critical thing is that David Ellison's sister Megan Ellison also mocked: "I thought all your bold words could be realized in the past, surpassing Gilbert Jr.'s achievements in three years.
Now it seems that you are just talking big words. "
"Hmph!" David Ellison snorted coldly: "Do you think little Gilbert is a gangster on the street? If he is surpassed so easily, then hasn't he spent more than ten years in vain?"
Megan Ellison was very disdainful: "When I graduate, I will also enter the film industry. Just watch, I will do better than you, better than little Gilbert."
David Ellison wanted to laugh when he heard this. He already knew that Hollywood was not easy to get along with, and those people did not welcome him as an outsider.
But he has no obligation to remind Megan Ellison that everyone has to pay the price for their choices.
After delivering his acceptance speech, Gilbert Jr. did not immediately go backstage for an interview because there was still one last award to be awarded, Best Picture.
Gilbert Jr. won the Best Director trophy earlier, allowing "The Return of the King" to break the record of eleven awards set by "Titanic".
If it wins the Best Picture award again, "The Return of the King" will be remembered in the history of the Oscars forever with an unprecedented 13 nominations.
In fact, there was no surprise in the best picture award. Charles Roven and Kane Waxman jointly won the best picture trophy.
Kane Waxman gave a touching acceptance speech after Charles Rowan, thanked Gilbert Jr., and announced his upcoming retirement.
"I would like to thank Gilbert Jr., at the end of my career as a producer, for being able to stay in the history of film forever with the "Lord of the Rings" series and go down in history.
This made me extremely excited and moved.
I had repeated discussions with little Gilbert, although he advised me not to retire and that I could still work for a few more years.
But considering that I am old now, it is a better choice to spend more time with my family while my health is still good. "
With that said, Kane Waxman looked at little Gilbert and said: "We will always like your movies, little Gilbert, and I can't accompany you on the next journey.
But please continue to persevere and walk firmly on the road to becoming the king of movies! "
