Chapter 56： Golden bomb rice flower

It was an old man with gray hair neatly combed to the back of his head. The old man's gaze was staring straight here, as sharp as an eagle. Duke's gaze greeted him without fear, calm and indifferent, as if he was opposite. It's just the most common wooden stake on the dock.

"Young man," Sean Connery took a few steps closer, "confidence must have talents that match it, otherwise it will become arrogant. This is Hollywood. It is easy to remember a person, forget a person. Easier."

There was an obvious condescending lesson in his tone, "There are many people who can succeed because of occasional luck, but the next failure will make them fall from the peak to the bottom, torn apart, and ruined!"

"I like collisions, excitement, and thrills."

With a faint smile, Duke said faintly, "This is a path for young people, not something that those who are outdated can understand."

"The road to failure!" Sean Connery said disdainfully.

"is it?"

Facing this domineering old man, Duke changed into a slightly ironic tone, "If you think I will fail next, why do you insist on investing $10 million in my film? This only shows that you recognize me in your heart. Project, and you hypocritically refuse to admit it."

∠,

"You thought I would care about that little money." Sean Connery looked like a gentleman who looked at money like dirt.

"If you remember correctly, you are neither a nomination nor an award-giving guest." Duke deliberately showed a puzzled expression. "I don't know how many digits of checks were signed by mtv to invite the famous Sean. Mr. Connery!"

Sean Connery opened his eyes and raised his shoulders slightly, "You..."

"Mr. Connery, this is a public place."

Before he finished speaking, Duke interrupted. The other party didn’t care. He didn’t want to be ashamed of the old ruffian. "It took a lot of effort to come to caa to make you a perfect gentleman. Do you want to give up the image of a gentleman? By the way, to remind you, I have always been a quarterback of the school football team in middle school and college. If you want to do something, I am happy to accompany you."

After taking a step back, Sean Connery's throat twitched a few times, as if he was swallowing something back into his stomach. In Duke's indifferent eyes, he said coldly, "You have no restraint and respect People who are actually valued by Warner?"

"This is Hollywood." Duke shrugged indifferently. "Since someone who is rude, grumpy, swearing, and addicted to alcohol and drugs can become the most elegant old gentleman, what's impossible? "

"You..." Sean Connery almost squeezed a word from his teeth, "You won't succeed, I swear!"

After speaking, he no longer gave Duke a chance to speak, and quickly turned and left.

Looking at the slightly trembling back, Duke didn’t know how hard it took the grumpy Sean Connery to endure it. He couldn’t help but shook his head. Caa’s packaging was indeed very strong. To be synonymous with an elegant gentleman is enough to prove the ability of this brokerage company.

As for the other party's final words, Duke doesn't care. He is not an independent producer. There is Warner's super thigh behind him. Even if Caa wants to do anything, Warner will be at the forefront.

Independent production is not in Duke’s early plans at all. The ability to resist risks is too weak. This is Hollywood. It is a battleground for money and fame. It is not a pure film that can kill the entire United States by making a good movie. Good place.

"This man has a very bad temper and character."

Naomi, who had been holding him all the time, said suddenly, "One time at a party held at Cruise's mansion, he once reprimanded a young director for not being able to say a word."

"Well, don't discuss him."

For Naomi Watts, Duke has a little bit more affection. She stood firmly beside her from beginning to end. This is also an attitude. He looked at the watch and led her out of the lounge. "It's almost time, and the award ceremony is about to begin."

Because "Life and Death" is one of the most nominated films for the MTV Awards, Duke's seat is relatively high, surrounded by crew members such as Uma Thurman and Keanu Reeves, on the other side of Reeves There was also a strange woman sitting, who seemed to be his new girlfriend.

"Do you think you can win the prize?" Naomi Watts asked in a low voice.

"Since the organizing committee has sent me an invitation, I also made it clear that I will attend..."

For such entertaining awards, Duke heard Nancy explain a few words, "Presumably they won't let me go home empty-handed."

The award ceremony quickly kicked off, without the seriousness and seriousness of the Oscar, it was full of joy from beginning to end. For example, the opening performance of Whitney Houston will be a hit because of "Bodyguard". Love you forever" is re-arranged and turned into a fast-paced r&b.

The winners are not too excited, and those who are frustrated are not frustrated. The people who come to the stage to receive the award always cooperate with the host and the award-presenting guests to make some small self-ridicule.

Although Duke was still empty-handed for more than half of the awards ceremony, "Life and Death" still won several awards. Keanu Reeves won the best actor. After he and Uma Thurman escaped the bus In the kissing scene, the airport madly kissed Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner and won the trophy for the best kiss scene.

Unfortunately, Uma Thurman lost to Whitney Houston in the best actress and Sharon Stone in the sexiest actress, but she and Keanu Reeves then gained again The popcorn bucket of the best screen partner.

"The next thing to be awarded is the best action scene design..." the host stood on the stage and said in an exaggerated tone, "The winner is the bus that destroyed half of Santa Monica. "! Duke Rosenberg, please."

As the people around him clapped their palms together, Duke stood up and accepted Naomi Watts' hug, then walked onto the stage and took a big golden popcorn bucket from the hostess.

"Oh, it's heavier than I thought."

In this kind of occasion and atmosphere, even if it is not good at joking, Duke still teased a few words, "I just don't know how it tastes."

"It will explode!" The host was joking next to him, "It is powerful enough to blow an airplane and a bus into pieces!"

"Then it will come in handy soon." Duke put it in front of him and looked at it. "I will use it to blow up half of San Francisco."

"So the rumor is true?"

I don’t know if Warner did a good job in private, and the host said very much, "Your new film is going to destroy San Francisco and Alcatraz?"

"Just destroy half of it." Duke emphasized.

"There will be an explosion?" the host asked with interest, "A better explosion than "Life and Death"?"

"Yes, it's crazier than "Life and Death", and it also has an impactful explosion, you can see this summer." Duke put on a mysterious tone, "I suggest action movie fans to see me. In the new film "Brave to Death Island", take the motion sickness medicine that will not sleep in advance."

There were bursts of laughter in the entire hall, followed by warm applause.

Time was almost up, Duke knew that he should step down. Before leaving, he pretended to be serious and said, "Explosion is a highly technical sensory art. Inferior explosions are aesthetically fatigued, and high-quality explosions make people excited. And the top explosion can make people fall into thinking."

There was a wave of applause. I don’t know who took the lead. Many people stood up and applauded. Especially in the audience area behind, there was a clear and audible cheering. The audience who can appear here must be popcorn. For movie lovers, Duke’s words are just to their liking.

Naomi Watts in the front row stood up a long time ago. When the camera lens turned around, he clapped his palms and lip-shaped, as if saying something like'i.' A very competent female companion.

"Do you believe his new movie will succeed?"

Just at the seat not far from the stage, Mel Gibson asked Sean Connery with a gloomy face. The old man snorted heavily, "As long as someone stops him, he will not succeed!"

Sean Connery has an elegant smile on his face, and he is also applauding the others, but the eyes are shining with a negative light.

"Congratulations, Duke."

As soon as he stepped off the stage, Naomi Watts gave him a big hug, and Duke's after-eyes aimed at the camera lens that turned around, and patted her back together, and whispered, "Don't So excited."

The awards were still going on. Naomi took the golden popcorn from his hand and rubbed her fingers lightly on it. "It would be great if this was a little golden man."

"There will be, not now." Duke looked indifferent, it seems that the Golden Man is not much better than this golden popcorn trophy in his eyes, "The Golden Man may not be more noble than popcorn."

"But that's authoritative certification." Naomi obviously didn't agree with him.

Shrugging, Duke said nothing more. It seems that the golden popcorn produced by the audience's vote must be full of inside stories. How much better can the Oscar be? He has some memories of the Internet age and knows how most of the Oscars will be born in the future.

art? Is it true that only literary or independent films can represent film art?

In fact, who doesn't know that all Hollywood movies are born for only one purpose, and that is commercial profit!

"Batman 2 got the best picture in essence."

After the awards, there was a small interview ceremony. Duke faced the footage of mtv television and said, “The award for the best action scene is the best inspiration for me. I have been working hard to design plots and scenes that audiences like. Thank them for voting for me and thank them for liking my movie."

"When you make a movie," the reporter asked again, "will the audience's preferences be taken into account?"
