"Best actor nominations," Anne Hathaway announced directly, "Jeff Bridges' crazy heart, George Clooney's in the cloud, Colin fields' single man..."

A personal name jumps out of Anne Hathaway's mouth. Leonardo DiCaprio looks at Murphy involuntarily. For some reason, he suddenly feels that he has lost the election.

"Jeremy Reiner, bomb disposal."

Leonardo DiCaprio's heart is sinking. He knows that Robert Downey Jr. is also interested in the best actor nomination

At this moment, the friendship with little Robert Downey was completely forgotten by Leonardo DiCaprio. He didn't want to hear the name of little Robert Downey at all.

The last nomination, if there is little Robert Downey, it means there is no him.

"Robert Downey Jr., the wolf of Wall Street!"

It's not Leonardo DiCaprio, it's not "closed island"!

Leonardo DiCaprio leans heavily on the back of his chair, his brows locked tightly, and his eyes unconsciously turn to Murphy.

There was a big round of applause in the banquet hall. Murphy was smiling and clapping.

His hand trembled slightly, and Leonardo DiCaprio understood that he had lost the game.

"Best director nomination!"

The applause stopped for a moment, and Anne Hathaway's voice rang out again, "James Cameron's Avatar"... "

Leonardo DiCaprio breathes out that Murphy Stanton may not be nominated for best director because of the controversy caused by "Wall Street wolf", so that he can pull back a little.

"Katherine Bigelow, bomb disposal."

"The second one." Leonardo DiCaprio counts down in his heart.

"Lee Daniels, true love!"

Before the face of embarrassment improved, Leonardo DiCaprio continued to murmur, "the third!"

"Jason Letterman, in the cloud!"

"The fourth one!" Leonardo DiCaprio's mouth is slightly raised, and Murphy stando's chance of winning the best director nomination is very small.

Because there is no director Martin Scorsese in the list of nominations, compared with young Murphy Stanton, Martin Scorsese, as one of the four directors, has an overwhelming advantage in terms of both qualifications and contacts. Moreover, the film has not received any Oscar nominations before, even for the sake of leveling Considering Heng, Martin Scorsese will be preferred over Murphy Stanton.

These thoughts flashed through Leonardo DiCaprio's head in an instant, and the corners of his mouth had already shown a smile that was not obvious.

Although there is no evidence that Murphy Stanton is related to his failure to win the best actor nomination list, Leonardo DiCaprio believes that he is absolutely inseparable. Since he can't get the best actor nomination, he can't get the best actor nomination.

Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for him to win the nomination of best director. The last quota must belong to his investment in "closed island", and it must be Martin Scorsese!

"Murphy Stanton, the wolf of Wall Street!"

Anne Hathaway's voice sounded, Leonardo DiCaprio gradually revealed a smile, instantly stiff, "what?"

He turned to Murphy. "How could it be him? Why not Martin Scorsese? "

After the announcement of the best director nomination, there was a huge applause in the banquet hall. Leonardo DiCaprio was a little stunned and sat here with a gloomy face, without any action.

Suddenly, the camera turned to capture Murphy, just like a conditioned reflex. The corner of his eye noticed that the camera was aimed at his desk. Leonardo DiCaprio immediately broke his stiff smile, turned his black face into warm congratulations, and clapped his hands with the applause in the banquet hall, fully showing Hollywood The demeanor of a superstar.

With the announcement of the best director nomination list, Murphy is at ease. The most difficult nomination has finally arrived.

Next, Anne Hathaway announced the best picture nomination list, which is the first time that the best picture nomination list has exceeded five films in the history of Oscar.

"Best picture: weakness, bomb disposal unit, avatar, Wall Street wolf, District 9, growth education, flying around the house, in the far end and serious man."

"There's no confinement island!"

Just like during the performance, Leonardo DiCaprio's eyes widened with exaggeration. In the nomination list of the whole nine films, he didn't have his own "closed island"!

His face suddenly became extremely dark, like a cloudy sky.No wonder Leonardo DiCaprio's face is so smelly. In the list of nominations for all 24 Awards announced, "closed island" has not won even one nomination!

For Leonardo DiCaprio, who wants to make a difference in the Oscars and win the best actor Oscar, this is a huge failure.

He calculated in his heart that Murphy Stanton's "wolf of Wall Street" actually won nine Oscar nominations for best editing, best photography, best costume design, best art direction, best adapted script, best actor, best supporting actor, best director and best film!

"Damn it

Leonardo DiCaprio murmured a word of abuse, when the nomination was announced, he did not wait for the photo and souvenirs, stood up and left the Hilton Beverly Hills Hotel.

Murphy also saw Leonardo DiCaprio leave, but he didn't care at all. Leonardo DiCaprio would surely think that the defeat of "closed island" had something to do with himself, in fact, it had something to do with it, but it was nothing. He was never the kind of Saint who had been bullied and had to bear it silently.

If someone slaps him, he will only return a knife. If he doesn't return it at that time, he is also waiting for a more suitable opportunity.

This is a highly competitive society. Murphy has never been afraid of competition, but enjoys it. In a word given to a great man on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, it's fun to fight with others.

After the announcement of the nomination list, it's time for the routine group photo and souvenir collection. Under the rules set by the Academy of film arts and Sciences, there is no fierce competition on the scene, but a happy scene.

Although the battle for the Oscars is bloody, the Academy of film arts and Sciences believes that the function of the annual banquet is not to create an atmosphere of singing and dancing, but to make the nominees who are likely to lose the election feel surrounded by a sense of honor. In addition to taking photos, receiving nomination certificates and enjoying delicious food, they will also receive a beautiful gift, which is undoubtedly a pity A kind of encouragement to the most outstanding filmmaker of the year.

In some ways, the nominees' luncheon before the Academy Awards ceremony is more like a fraternity. The academy can show its own formality. Nominees have certificates, meetings and so on. You can meet, exchange and talk about the gains and losses of a year. On the surface, it is similar to the excellent workers' Forum on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

The nominees like Murphy are naturally in a good mood. In the circle of Hollywood, even though there are all kinds of disputes and disturbances around the Oscar, no one will deny that it is the most authoritative award in the industry. It is also a very glorious and boastful thing to get the Oscar nomination. It is not easy to win the Oscar and get the nomination It's also not easy. At the same time of paying huge time and capital cost, it also needs opportunities, coincidences and efforts.

Of course, this is also a good place for PR and networking. After the group photo, Murphy had a chat with many people.

Although there is no hope of winning the Oscars this year, who can't wait to use such things as social network to think about it? In that case, it's too late.

Finally, before leaving the Hilton Hotel, Murphy gave a special interview to Fox TV reporters.

"I spend far more money on film production than on the cast," he said when asked why Murphy can always control the cost of films. "This is also an important reason why my films can control the cost well."

When the reporter asked how to face the difficulties of shooting and production, Murphy said, "it's good for filmmakers to go through a difficult period, because they will think when they are in trouble. If you are spoiled by an adequate budget, you will make a spoiled film. If you overcome many difficulties to make a film, I believe the audience can feel it. "

He added, "I think all first-time filmmakers will encounter the same thing. Once they decide to do it, there's no dilemma. You don't care what happens next."

When he left the hotel, Murphy met Sandra Bullock, who took the initiative to say hello. Murphy also had a chat with her. He vaguely remembered that she should be the best actress in the Oscar.

Seeing Sandra Bullock's stiff face because of the injection, Murphy can only feel that, just like he is accumulating qualifications, there are many ways to win the Oscar heavyweight awards.

Get on the bus and tell the driver to go back to wave manor. Murphy calls Gail gado, who has been in Israel for a while, to tell him the good news he just got from the nominees' lunch. Then he goes home and changes into casual clothes. He is ready to go to a beach restaurant in Santa Monica to attend James Franco's party.

James Franco had previously revealed that he would propose to Lily Collins at the party. (to be continued). )
