Heads Up Hollywood

The Oscars of this era are usually held at the end of March.

It is quite popular in the industry!

There is a gap of 2 months between the Golden Globes and the Oscars!

Such a long time will leave enough public relations time for the major film companies.

The longer the PR time, the more Oscar's hidden income.

This is a big criticism.

Recently, a group of independent filmmakers in the Hollywood industry set off a wave of rebellion against the Oscars.

They asked the academy to move the Oscars forward!

The longer the PR time, the better it is for the big studios.

Those small companies don't have much money to operate during the awards season, so naturally it's hard to get anything.

This is so unfair!

Especially this year's New Universal has almost monopolized the Oscars. Is there any reason for this?

If this continues, will those small independent film companies still have room to survive?

The box office market is monopolized by big companies, and the awards season has become a game for big companies. Is this good for the development of American movies?

Fortunately, these small film companies and independent producers do not have many channels and resources, and have not caused much public opinion.

However, this is enough to attract the attention of the Oscar Organizing Committee!

If nothing is changed, Oscar's reputation is likely to be damaged if things go wrong.

In particular, several films under New Universal this year are really shining.

Oscar does not want to encounter this kind of situation where the family dominates.

Therefore, the Oscar Organizing Committee has recently issued a statement.

Starting next year, that is, in 2004, the Oscar awards ceremony will be held one month earlier at the end of February!

I thought that such a statement would calm the restlessness inside.

Unexpectedly, the mutant rebirth!

This year's Oscar ceremony is scheduled to be held on March 23.

However, on March 20th, a joint force dominated by the British and American troops launched a military operation against Iraq!

The second Gulf War, which has been tense for several months, broke out!

A sudden war is fatal to an entertainment event like the Oscars.

Many actors, including Jim Carrey, Cate Blanchett, Will Smith, Natalie Portman, etc., have declined the request to be the guests of the award, citing respect for military families .

Families are in fear, but celebrities are throwing parties in costumes?

I'm really sorry.

ABC Television, the broadcaster, also made a request to the Oscar Organizing Committee, hoping to postpone the awards ceremony and hold it at the end of March or early April.

However, this request was rejected by the president of the academy, Pearson.

The Kodak Theater has already made arrangements. If Oscar wants to adjust the date, he needs to pay a huge amount of money to breach the contract. Even Oscar couldn't afford this fee.

Three days later, the Oscar ceremony will come as scheduled!

However, this year's Oscars, the grand occasion has been greatly reduced. Not only has the red carpet event been drastically scaled back, but the grandstand seats along Hollywood Boulevard have also been removed.

ABC TV station, the Oscar Organizing Committee, and the Los Angeles police are even closely watching the war situation in Iraq.

It seemed that if I was not careful, Iraqi shells would hit the ceremony hall.

Tang En didn't care, he followed the crew of "Chicago" and appeared together.

Walking through the red carpet, the female stars competed in front of the signed version and took pictures for souvenirs.

Never tire of showing off beauty.

Tang En had long since lost interest in the red carpet and the media.

If it wasn't for a statuette who could exchange the "Contract Stealing" skill with the sunglasses system, he wouldn't even want to participate in the ceremony.

"very nervous?"

Tang En was sitting between the crews of "Chicago" and "The Hours", with Rachel Weisz on the left and Nicole Kidman on the right.

At this moment, he was holding Nicole's hand, and found that her palm was covered with sweat.

Nicole Kidman forced a smile and took a deep breath, "Twain, you have to understand that there has never been an Australian actress who can become an Oscar queen."

Tang En patted her thigh lightly and said with a smile, "Don't worry, tonight...the first one will be born!"

Nicole Kidman glanced at him charmingly, glanced around quickly, and then covered his hands with a lift of her skirt.

Tang En's hand fell on the smooth and smooth thigh, cool and delicate.

"Aren't you afraid of being seen?"

Dunn was surprised and delighted, his eyes wide open.

"You don't like it? Forget it." Nicole Kidman pushed him jokingly.

Of course Tang En would not refuse, he simply slid his hand up, which was better covered by the skirt, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he seemed to be enjoying it.

The broadcaster is ABC TV station, even if it is discovered, this kind of picture will certainly not appear in the TV broadcast.

But Rachel Weisz on the other side saw it, lowered her voice, and said in surprise: "You guys are so bold!"

Nicole Kidman's face was a little red, her lips were tightly pressed together, she couldn't make a sound, and she couldn't make a sound.

Tang En is playing tricks on the bottom.

"Do you want to try it?"

Tang En looked at Rachel Weisz with a smirk.

"I don't!"

Rachel Weisz was taken aback, quickly gathered her legs together, and held down her skirt.

Tang En shook his head amusedly, and suddenly thought of something, "By the way, Rachel, I have a small favor and I need your help."

"As long as you don't tease me on this occasion, you can do anything." Rachel Weisz was really afraid that Tang En would make some surprising moves.

Tang En shook his head, "It's business."

"Oh, then tell me."

"I know a girl in the UK, a little girl. Uh... I haven't seen it, she should be 13 years old this year. Her parents divorced, and she lives with her mother. But the mother's income is not much, except for paying her tuition fees. , I can't even afford stationery..."

"Wait!" Rachel Weisz was very strange, "Tuition fee? What tuition fee?"

Tang En said: "She is studying at the Dragon School, not only that, she is also studying acting at the Oxford branch of the Stagecoach School of Drama and Art."

Oxford Dragon School is the top private school in the UK, and it is not free of tuition like public schools.

On the contrary, the tuition fee is still very high!

This made Rachel Weisz amazed, but also admired.

The family conditions are not good, and they also support their daughters to study in private schools and take acting classes. It is difficult for children raised in this kind of family environment to be outstanding.

"Oh, you want to support her?" Rachel Weisz thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she looked at Tang En with admiration.

Tang En said: "Actually, I have secretly funded her for nearly three years."

"Three years?"

"Well, she auditioned for "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" back then, but unfortunately, she was eliminated. Later, I followed her in the list and found that she is very hardworking and motivated. Although she is young, she is very sensible. Also smart."

Rachel Weisz was even more strange, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Tang En said: "I hope that she can be independent and self-reliant enough, have struggle, and be able to fight hard. If I come forward directly, it may make her feel lazy and dependent. This is not my original intention."

Rachel Weisz understood very well that once a big shot like Twain paid attention, any girl would have to dream about living the life of a princess she had always dreamed of, which might have the opposite effect.

"Then what happened in the past three years?"

"It's Kate, Kate Winslet. She's been contacting the girl, but you know, she's married and pregnant, so I'm going to find someone else to take her place."

"Why are you looking for me?"

"Although I have a lot of friends in the UK, there are not many who are suitable for this job. You are a woman with an instinctive affinity, which can make it easier for her to accept funding. You are also an actor, and you can give her some performances opinions. Of course, you are my friend, and you can keep it secret for me."

Rachel Weisz understood. She really didn't expect Tang En to take such a big detour and expend so much energy for a little girl.

Do good deeds without leaving a name, and let others stand on top of the tank.

so great?

Rachel Weisz nodded in disbelief, "What do I need to do?"

Tang En said: "It's very simple. Give her 100 pounds of pocket money every week. If it's a special festival, or if you find some special circumstances, you can give her another 100 pounds."

"Huh?" Rachel Weisz opened her eyes wide, "Only £100?"

Tang En said angrily: "I told you, she is only 13 years old, why give her so much money? Worshiping money? 100 pounds is enough to meet her daily expenses, so that she will not be troubled by school supplies and menstrual cycle .If she saves enough, the money could even pay for her acting studies."

Rachel Weisz shook her head and said, "I live in Los Angeles, I don't have the time to send her 100 pounds a week."

"I don't want you to send it yourself every week, and ask you for help. The main reason is that you are a famous British actor, and she will trust you and accept your funding."

Tang En paused, and then said: "It's good that you find time to see her once every one or two months. After all, she is a single-parent family and has many difficulties. You can provide some advice and help her. If she If you have some trouble with the performance, you can also help."

Rachel Weisz asked suspiciously: "You care about her performance? Do you think she can be an actress in the future?"

In the UK, there are millions of children studying acting every year. But after growing up, less than one in ten thousand can really embark on an acting career.

Tang En said firmly: "As long as she is interested in acting, she can do it!"

Rachel Weisz nodded, "Yeah, with your help, it's not easy for her to want to act? But... you should find her a more professional and excellent acting school, if you really think she can become an actress in the future Excellent actor."

"No, the external environment is just an objective condition. As long as she works hard enough, she can overcome these difficulties." Tang En said disapprovingly.

"Okay, I promise."

Rachel Weisz shook her head. He couldn't convince Tang En, so he could only accept, "What's that girl's name? Where is she?"

"Emma Watson, who lives in Oxfordshire. But on weekends, she often goes to her father's house in London."

Tang En opened his mouth without even thinking about it.

Obviously, he has been paying attention to this girl.
