Looking at the trophy on the table, this is a little lion standing up, with its raised front paws curled up in front of the chest, instead of showing teeth and dancing, it looks naive. The fur on the lion's body is not very bright, but the thin layer of silver plating makes it look dazzling.
After returning from negotiating with the Weinstein brothers, Evan Bell sat on the sofa and quietly looked at the Silver Lion trophy, engraved with "2004, 61st Venice Film Festival, Best Director," Mysterious Skin', Evan Bell" with a thoughtful smile on the corner of his mouth.
The media was surprised that he won the Silver Lion. In fact, Evan Bell was even more surprised, and the attention of the Weinstein brothers was even more unexpected. He once thought about how great it would be if "Mystery Skin" won an award. But soon, Evan Bell adjusted his mentality and did not do more speculation. At the moment Quentin Tarantino announced, Evan Bell almost cried with joy, the tumbling and excitement in his heart can only be experienced by himself. However, when the trophy was actually in his hands, Evan Bell regained his sanity, because he knew that winning the trophy as a dark horse will certainly attract countless attention, but at the same time, there will be countless pressures piled up.
In the history of the Oscars, after winning the Best Actor and Best Actress trophies, there are countless actors who have been sluggish for a long time. But in fact, it is mainly because after these actors have received the highest praise, the pressure of selecting works will appear involuntarily. Whether it is a commercial film or an art film, after winning the best actor and actress, it must be carefully selected; The requirements are also higher and the tastes are also picky, because they want to see more outstanding works. Therefore, it becomes even more difficult for the best actors and actresses to achieve better results, or even make breakthroughs.
The current Evan Bell has only made two films and won the Silver Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival. In the future, his directing path will only attract more criticism. If you think about it again, Evan Bell has won awards at the four major art awards ceremonies in the United States, then it is not surprising that the media and the audience are picky.
Evan Bell doesn't care about pressure. He never cares about so-called pressure. Now he just wants to clear his mind and realize what this Silver Lion trophy means to him. After winning the award, everything has to start all over again, and then refocus all energy on the work itself and create more excellent works. Stressed, so what? Turning pressure into momentum has always been Evan Bell's specialty, hasn't it?
A hand reached out and picked up the Silver Lion trophy directly, interrupting Evan Bell's thoughts. Looking up, it was Teddy Bell. Teddy Bell played with the trophy and said casually, "'NCIS' and 'Doctor House' will premiere soon, don't you plan to join the crew to see?"
Before you know it, it's already September, and the fall season of the annual TV series is coming again. The second season of "NCIS" and the first season of "Doctor House" will be officially launched. And Evan Bell, as a nominal producer, is completely out of hand, and almost never participated in the production of the TV series.
Evan Bell couldn't help laughing, "Aren't you guys running very well now?" Especially "Doctor House", Teddy Bell took the lead for the first time, although the executive producer was David Shore, but It was Teddy Bell's first work after taking over the production department after David Greenblatt left. So far, Teddy Bell is doing well.
However, like "NCIS", "Dr. House" is also Evan Bell's personal favorite TV series, and the villainous and critical Doctor House is definitely a character worth remembering on the small screen. Hugh Laurie, who plays Dr. House, can also be called a legend. He used to be a member of the Cambridge University rowing team. Because of the multicellular hyperplasia, he had to give up his sports dream, otherwise he might You can see him on the Olympic field - his father was the gold medalist in the 1948 Olympic rowing competition.
However, after missing out on his sports career, Hugh Laurie met Emma Thompson, a famous British talented woman in college - Evan Bell once had a relationship with her in "True Love First", Emma Thompson was in It plays the prime minister's sister. Since then, Hugh Laurie has been involved in the entertainment business, he is a brilliant comedian, he is a household name in the UK, he is also a stage actor, and he is also a regular keyboard player for a rock band, which, of course, really made him famous all over the world. The "Doctor House".
Hugh Laurie's personality is also something Evan Bell has always admired. After shaping the classic image of Dr. House, the series came to an end in 2012. Hugh Laurie also stated that he would not take on the role after this, and that he would step back behind the scenes to perform other roles in the same industry. Work. The ruthless and warm-hearted Doctor House on the screen turned around and left this colorful entertainment circle without any hesitation. At least, Hugh Laurie really disappeared before Evan Bell was reborn in the car accident. Few actors have such courage, attention from the spotlight, high popularity, give up when they say give up, turn around and leave without any hesitation, this kind of personality is indeed admirable.
"When will 'Doctor House' start airing? If I have time, I'll go visit the crew." Just like Mark Harmon, the boss of "NCIS", Evan Bell felt that he would take a break. - Laurie is also a good idea.
"'NCIS' starts at the end of the month, 'Doctor House' has to wait for November." Teddy Bell smiled, although he could do a good job in the position of producer, but from "Navy Crime" It can be seen from the atmosphere of the crew of "Investigation Office" that if Evan Bell can visit the class, the effect will be different after all. "David invited 'X-Men' director Brian Singer to direct the first episode of the first season, so it took some time." This David is not David Greenblatt, but David Shaw you.
Evan Bell was quite surprised by this answer, "Fox did not refuse?" Because the production costs were borne by Eleven Studios and Fox Television, these projects that require money must be negotiated by both parties.
Teddy Bell laughed, "It doesn't make any sense." Looking at his simple and honest smile, Evan Bell noticed something was wrong. Even if the two brothers blinked each other, they could feel abnormal, so Evan Bell looked at Teddy Bell with scrutiny. Teddy Bell didn't intend to sell off, still with that smile, "The ratings of 'American Idol' in the last season have been ahead of 'CSI'." No wonder, the third season audition is in full swing for "American Idol" , has become the No. 1 viewership leader in the United States. Although the advantage is not obvious now, it is obvious that the momentum has surpassed all programs.
"They also want you to be on 'American Idol'." Teddy Bell went on to say that this is Fox's real calculus. "If you're willing to be a judge for one issue, that's great; even if you don't, it's good to be on stage to perform two songs, or to be a mentor to the contestants. If you really don't have time, record a video. All are acceptable."
Hearing Teddy Bell's words, Evan Bell burst into laughter, it seems that Fox TV is really anxious. As the first-hand creator of "American Idol", Evan Bell has never appeared on this show, which is indeed not a good phenomenon. Teddy Bell probably also thought it was a little funny, so the smile just seemed a little unusual.
"'X Factor' has been calling me to attend, but I don't have time." The "X Factor" that is currently being broadcast in the UK is now also top-notch in ratings. Compared with the previous "Pop Idol", "X Factor" attracts The audience is wider, the impact is more far-reaching, it is more suitable for the soil of the British Isles, and it has also won support. "You don't have to go back to them. I've been filming Brokeback Mountain recently. I guess they all know it and won't mention it again for the time being."
Teddy Bell nodded, "Let's wait until the filming of 'Brokeback Mountain' is over about your visit to the class."
At this moment, Evan Bell's cell phone rang, and he picked it up directly. It was an unfamiliar number, and the number was still an international long distance, "00971-4? Which country's code is it?" Wen Bell looked up at Teddy Bell, Teddy Bell searched his memory, "Dubai?" He wasn't sure either.
Evan Bell muttered "Dubai?" and answered the phone, "Hello, this is Evan Bell."
"Hello, Mr. Bell, this is the Dubai Municipal Government Burj Khalifa Project Office." A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone. She had no Middle Eastern accent and was fluent in American English. "Don't you know that Mr. Bell is convenient to answer the phone now?" The other party was obviously polite.
Evan Bell glanced at Teddy Bell nodded and confirmed that it was the code of Dubai. Teddy Bell knew what the call was. He leaned back in his chair and held his hand. The Silver Lion trophy is constantly playing.
"No problem, if you have any business, please say." Evan Bell recalled the time, it has been a month since the last bid for Burj Khalifa, and the Dubai Municipal Government plans to start construction before October, so The results of the bidding will come out around this time.
"That's right. Mr. Bell's drawings for the Burj Khalifa are very good and have been selected by our city government as the final winning drawing..." The lady on the other end of the phone was still sending polite words of praise, but Evan -Bell was no longer listening, he clenched his right fist, gritted his teeth, and whispered "Yeah!"
Teddy Bell knew the result when his brother looked like this. He immediately sat next to Evan Bell and asked with his mouth, "Won the bid?" After receiving Evan Bell's confirmed answer, Teddy Bell Also excitedly hugged Evan Bell.
