The dark clouds were still densely piled up in the sky, and the drizzle was scattered around in the violent wind. This kind of weather was not really bad, it was just a little annoying. In particular, this is still a winter rain, not an expensive spring rain. Standing in the rain and fog in spring and watching the green scene of everything has a unique flavor, but in winter, watching the whole world turn into a hazy gray always makes people feel a little depressing.
Teddy Bell and Eden Hudson were sitting in the lobby, drinking coffee and simply chatting, as if there was no such thing as the Oscars today.
"Have the conditions for the Winklevoss brothers been decided?" Teddy Bell knew that if things were not settled, Eden Hudson would not come back, so he asked.
Eden-Hudson put the coffee cup in his hand on the table, ''Fifty million. However, the ratio of cash to stock has not yet been determined. I gave the Winklevoss brothers a proposal, but they still have to discuss it with their lawyers. ''
The twin brothers Winklevoss sued Mark-Zuckerberg for stealing social network ideas and source code, which was not the case when Eduardo-Savarin sued Mark-Zuckerberg for illegally depriving him of his face The book share lawsuit has received so much attention, but it is not a small matter.
After nearly three years of entanglement, Eden-Hudson finally reached a settlement agreement with the Winklevoss brothers. Facebook came forward to pay $50 million in cash and stock, but the Winklevoss brothers still hope to make some adjustments in terms of the ratio of cash to stock - they naturally hope that the ratio of stock can be higher. . But Facebook is naturally not likely to nod so easily.
"The ratio of stock remains the same, and cash can be increased a little more if necessary." Teddy Bell turned his head quickly and gave his opinion. Eden Hudson nodded. "No speaking. Actually now. Basically, the dust has settled, but there is still a tug-of-war for the details of the interests. It is not a big problem. As long as the two sides have the intention of reconciliation, things will be much easier to handle. "What about Eduardo? ''
"Hardcore." Eden-Hudson pouted, just not sure if he was talking about Eduardo-Savarin or Mark-Zuckerberg. The two have been reluctant to get to the negotiating table for a settlement. On both sides, the whole situation is deadlocked here, and there has not been much progress in the past year.
"I heard that Eduardo is writing a biography, does Mark know?", Teddy Bell has enough contacts in this circle, especially Michelle Hathaway, who is in the publishing industry, so for these trends are more aware.
Eduardo-Savarin never made progress in the lawsuit, so he planned to write a biography of the whole thing from his point of view, publish it publicly, and then put pressure on Mark Zuckerberg. There is no need to read this biography, which is still being written, to know that Eduardo-Savarin must have a lot of dissatisfaction to vent. From his point of view, Mark Zuckerberg is naturally impossible. have any positive image.
Evan-Bell also heard about this, but he smiled meaningfully and did not express any opinion. History is still moving forward according to the original trajectory, and I have to say that life is really interesting.
"I know." Eden Hudson looked at the aroma of the coffee in front of him and said plainly. Mark Zuckerberg is a stinky and hard rock, and most of the time, he will not accept any opinion. , not even Evan Bell's. Eden Hudson has a deep understanding of this. But from another perspective, it is precisely because of Mark Rickberg's personality that he can be distinguished from Ed Huaduo-Savarin, who founded an ingenious social network like Facebook, can also become friends with someone as flamboyant as Evan-Belle.
Teddy Bell nodded and stopped talking. These are things that Eden-Hudson handles with real expertise.
In short, the outcome of the lawsuit is also a matter of benefit distribution.
At this time, the door of the room was opened, and Evan Yibel stood at the door with his eyes closed, holding on to the door frame, his slightly tired face showed that his state was indeed not good, "Teddy, have you prepared breakfast? ',
"Yes. I made porridge, and I'm still cooking it." This kind of Chinese cooking method is not uncommon in Bell's house. Eden-Hudson couldn't help but turn his head.
The dog Bell took a deep breath, "Just put some salt. I'll go take a bath." Although his head is still a little heavy, but the whole person is much better, and it is estimated that part of the reason for the heavy head is that he has slept for too long. , It is better to take a bath and wake up.
"Are you sure you won't fall on the red carpet?", Eden-Hudson looked at Evan-Bell's state and said sarcastically. At this time, Evan-Bell was going to take a shower, in fact, to be ready to attend the awards Preparations for the ceremony.
Evan-Bell opened his eyes and couldn't help laughing, ''Don't worry, it was me who made the embarrassment. '' Then he went to the bathroom.
Teddy Bell stood up, walked into the kitchen, and started to prepare breakfast for Evan Bell. He looked much better than before. He had slept for twelve hours, so there shouldn't be any major problems. It would be better to go out for a walk. "Teddy Bell's dangling heart was relieved. Evan felt hungry and wanted to eat breakfast. This is a good sign." Besides, did you meet him for the first time today? "If it's really uncomfortable, Evan-Bell will never force himself for an awards ceremony, not even the Oscars. If it's a concert, that's another story.
"It's because I've known him for too long," Eden-Hudson said firmly. When it comes to work, Evan-Bell has always liked to be brave, in concerts, filming, and recording. But fortunately, today is just an awards ceremony, and Evan Bell will not force himself.
"Would you like to eat some too? The airplane meal is almost digested now." Teddy Bell's voice came from the kitchen.
"Yeah." Eden Hudson also went to the kitchen to help, "Are the dresses ready?" Although they were all staying in the backstage, dedicated to the manager's lounge, it was not too polite to wear shirts and jeans to attend. Even the reporters were dressed to attend, and they were no exception.
"In the car." Teddy Bell is all too familiar with these things now, after all, he has also been Evan Bell's agent for eight years. Looking down at his watch, it was already eleven o'clock. Teddy Bell handed the spoon to Eden Hudson and let him serve the porridge. He hurriedly picked up the phone and started making calls one by one.
At this time, it was only a few hours before the red carpet started at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Teddy Bell had to make preparations for each link early, otherwise, he might be in a hurry and he might be late. Of course, it is also necessary to tell Sid-Gannis the good news.
We should be thankful here, men are always more convenient than women, like Anne Hathaway, they prepare for the red carpet, from beauty to hair to makeup, and finally dressing, starting from eight in the morning to two in the afternoon. point around. If you encounter a star-studded beauty salon, it may take a little longer. Of course, the real big names have their own working teams. But it is much more convenient for men, the hairstyle is not too troublesome, the dress is not too troublesome, and even the makeup does not have so many complicated details, the whole time can be completely controlled within two to three hours.
Although the time is very tight, Evan-Bell still finished his breakfast without any hassle. It is now eleven o'clock, mainly for the sake of his stomach. If he eats too quickly, it is not good for digestion. By the time Evan and Bell and his party set off for the beauty room, the hour hand had already pointed to half past eleven.
The traffic on Sunday is always frustrating. There is no difference between the morning peak and the evening peak. It seems that at any time, there is a heavy traffic jam.
Evan Bell slept again in the car, and it was a quarter past twelve when Eden Hudson woke up. You know, the distance from their apartment to the beauty salon is usually only fifteen minutes away—without traffic jams.
Teddy Bell looked at Evan Bell's face carefully. Although he was still a little tired, his whole spirit had come back. It wasn't because of the makeup, but the light in Evan Bell's eyes came back. Only then did he feel relieved and turned his eyes to the car window again, "Why is it raining again Los Angeles doesn't necessarily rain so much throughout the year."
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the light rain stopped for a while, and a little bit of sun appeared in the corner of the dark clouds in the sky, which made many people breathe a sigh of relief. It's not that the rain is so cold, it's just that the drizzle is always a little infiltrating in the cold wind and bleak, and it's very troublesome. But the rain stopped for less than an hour, and it started to fall again, and it was even bigger than the rain and fog in the morning, and you could even see raindrops.
"Haha, I guess God thinks that the screenwriter has finished work too early and is crying sadly." Evan Yibel is now gradually getting more energy to joke. In fact, this time it was just a sign of a cold, and it happened to happen to Oscar's day. Even if he really caught a cold, it wasn't necessarily that weak.
In the rain curtain outside the window, the appearance of the Kodak Theater gradually came into view. Since the two streets around Hollywood Boulevard are subject to traffic control every year, just for the smooth holding of the awards ceremony, there is no traffic jam here at all. However, today because of the rain, the crowded scene outside the Kodak Theater was not visible. It is estimated that there were less than 200 spectators, plus the photojournalists, the scale on both sides of the red carpet was much quieter than in previous years. .
Looking at his watch, it was already quarter past six, and there were only fifteen minutes left before the awards ceremony, which was about to start at seven, but the red carpet was still very lively at this time. Looking out the window, Katherine Hagrid Er, Penelope and Cruz were still in sight, waving gracefully and calmly to the reporters.
