Chapter 183

It's hot in Los Angeles in August. In front of Chandler Hall of the music center, what's hotter than the weather is the madness of the reporters. They either hold microphones or hold cameras to fight for a better position, and they don't hesitate to pull their shoulders out of the crowd.

The suit is wrinkled and the tie is crooked, but no one cares. In the eyes of these reporters who specialize in entertainment news, these are worth it.

Because on the red carpet in front of them, Steven Spielberg has just passed by, and Tom Cruise, who has just divorced, comes over with his new girlfriend Penelope Cruz. Behind them is Peter Jackson, a fat New Zealand man. These are Hollywood celebrities. The photos can be on the front page of tomorrow's entertainment page. If you can interview them and ask for some exclusive information, That's it.

Even if there are too many reporters around them, there are still directors like Murphy Stanton who can interview them.

however, if they can interview popular directors and stars, no one will come to Murphy Stanton.

As a B-level film director, the readers concerned are still very limited.

Probably due to the arrangement of the organizer, Murphy stepped onto the red carpet to find that he was caught between Peter Jackson and Harry Potter Daniel Radcliffe, who are famous for the ring: ring guard team. Until the end of the red carpet, few reporters spoke to him.

Murphy is also happy to be clean. Now that the planet of terror is out of gear, there is no need for him to use the opportunity of Saturn prize to win attention.

He didn't even enter the interview area. He went directly into the Chandler hall where the Saturn awards ceremony was held.

This is the 82nd Saturn awards ceremony. It was originally held in early June, but at the end of May, the CIA and the FBI jointly issued a warning that Al Qaeda may launch a new round of terrorist attacks on the United States, and the large-scale activities of celebrities are the primary target. As a last resort, the Saturn awards ceremony has been postponed to the end of August.

Walking into Chandler hall, Murphy, under the command of a staff member, quickly finds the location of the electric saw thriller crew. In the past, he finds James Franco, Seth Logan and Jonah Hill sitting together.

"This way, Murphy," saisrogan beckoned to Murphy, and Jonah hill stood up and said, "come here"

Murphy strode over, sat on the empty chair on James Franco's left hand, looked at the frowning saisrogan and Jonah hill through him, and asked, "it's urgent"

"it's not urgent." It was James Franco who said, "it's the two of them who have found something that they think is very interesting."

It's still a while before the award ceremony, Murphy asked bored, "you two, tell me what it is"

"Murphy, look over there." Jonah Hill pointed to the front seat on the left and said, "look who it is"

following his hand, Murphy recognized the super handsome Hollywood guy with only one look. "Tom Cruise, it seems that there is a Spanish actress next to him. I can't remember his name."

"Don't worry about the Latin woman," Seth Logan reminded, leaning this way. "Look at the seventh position on Tom Cruise's right."

In the twinkling of an eye, Murphy first saw curly red hair, which was different from Jessica chastan's red hair. Red was mixed with more gold.

Although he could only see one back and one unclear profile, Murphy recognized who the woman was, the ex-wife of superstar Tom Cruise, whom Jonah Hill had just shown him. One of them nominated for best actor and the other for best actress at the Saturn awards.

"Did you say they would win?" Jonah hill was like discovering a new world.

Seth Logan looked over there and fumbled for his fat chin. He said, "with the spontaneity of Hollywood, the organizers of events will surely give Tom Cruise the best actor first, and then Nicole Kidman the best actress."

Murphy nodded with approval. "If I were the planner of this award ceremony, I would let Nicole Kidman present the award to Tom Cruise first, and then Tom Cruise present the award to Nicole Kidman. Only in this way can we have gimmicks, news points and ratings. "

James Franco, who has been silent for a long time, can't help but sneer: "it's a waste of time for you not to be the director of the Saturn awards ceremony"

Murphy shrugged his shoulders with a smile and said confidently, "I think so, too."

"If I say that if they really meet on the podium," Seth Logan is still looking over there, as if hoping for this to happen, "what kind of expressions will they have"

"calm awarding, calm receiving." Murphy didn't even think about it and gave an answer, "smile relative, hug deeply, prove to everyone that we are still good friends even if we are apart."

Jonah Hill didn't seem to believe Murphy's words. He questioned, "they can really do this"

"nonsense, they do better than Murphy said," James Franco knocked down the arm of his chair and reminded, "you two idiots, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are the best actors in Hollywood."Jonah hill and Seth Logan were dubious about what Murphy and James Franco said. The award ceremony that started later confirmed what Murphy and James Franco said. When Nicole Kidman won the Saturn Award for best actress, Tom Cruise took the initiative to stand up and send congratulations to his wife after passing the seat where Tom Cruise was sitting Embrace deeply, just like the things that I wanted to kill each other a year ago never happened.

Jonah hill has been staring over there until Nicole Kidman stepped onto the podium and sighed, "this is Hollywood"

the biggest attraction tonight is undoubtedly Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, the former couple, who won best actor and best actress respectively by virtue of vanilla sky and island soul.

It's a happy event. The winning films are all box office hits. There won't be popular films that most audiences haven't seen or heard. It's a time of science fiction, fantasy and horror films.

Different from Oscar's appeal for both refined and popular tastes, and different from the artistic success of international film festivals such as Venice, the Saturn Award has always been focused on encouraging excellent sci-fi, fantasy and horror films. In other words, this is a completely mainstream commercial film award ceremony.

It can be seen from the winners and the films that Tom Cruise, who was scorned by the Oscars, was the favorite here. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone won nine nominations. Peter Jackson won the best director award by virtue of the Lord of the rings: the ring guard team

"dear Murphy, don't be sad, don't be sad." watching Peter Jackson, who received the best director award on the stage, Jan "It's just the Saturn prize," musfranco said in a low voice. "One day, maybe you will become the best director of the Oscars."

Murphy squinted at him. "Am I so stupid that I thought I could beat Peter Jackson and Spielberg with a chainsaw?"

He looked at the awarding guests on the stage and said, "this is the prize we may get."

On the stage, the sweet looking Jessica Alba is reading the nomination list of the best horror film for the Saturn Award, "the best horror film nominees for the 28th Saturn Award are: Island thriller, ghost children's home, scary cannibals, 13th Street, chainsaw thriller."

She smiles at the stage, sunny and pure.

"It must be us, it must be us," whispered Seth Logan and Jonah hill.

James Franco also put away his playful expression, his face stretched.

Murphy unconsciously holds his fist. This is the first time since he joined the film industry that he may win a heavyweight award. There is a Saturn Award next to him. It will be much more convenient for him to invest or find a distribution in the future.

And his next plan also needs such a heavyweight award to increase persuasion, so that he can convince the famous stubborn guy in the cartoon industry as soon as possible.

Before the award ceremony, Bill rosis and grace also did a lot of work. Murphy believes that he still has the hope of winning the prize.

The biggest competitor is undoubtedly Kojima thriller, but this film has won the best actress. From the perspective of cake sharing, the winning hope of chainsaw thriller is even greater.

"The winner is" Jessica Alba opened the envelope in her hand, with a typical sunny smile on her face, and said the final answer. "The electric saw is terrified"

"wow" next to two strange cries, which are the excited voices of Seth Logan and Jonah hill.

James, Frankie, they need to be calm. They stand up for the first time, look at Murphy and clap their palms.

The applause came from all directions and gathered to Murphy. Murphy's clenched fist waved in his chest and stood up

buttoned up his suit. Murphy hugged James Franco, Seth Logan and Jonah hill one by one, and then walked to the stage.

"This is the young director who sold two small films in a row." when Spielberg finished this sentence, he saw his assistant nodding and said, "let people stare at him, pay attention to his new project, and let me know if there is any news."

On the stage, Murphy took the best horror movie trophy from Jessica Alba, opened her hand and gave the chocolate beauty a polite hug, then stood in front of the microphone in the middle of the stage, looked down at the trophy in her hand and said, "thank you" is not finished.
