Chapter 1878 1880【Winona Ryder】
Subsequently, the Golden Globe Awards announced the Best Screenplay Award.
The award guests were Brooke Shields and Timothy Dalton.
Timothy is the new 007 actor. The film "007: Dead by Daylight" he starred in the year before last year has achieved good results at the global box office of nearly 200 million US dollars. It also made the English actor instantly famous and became a big star in Hollywood.
“The finalists for the Best Screenplay Award are… Spike Lee for “Just Do It,” Charles “When Harry Met Sally,” Charles “Dead Poets Society,” Kevin Jarrel for “Glory,” David · Mamei''s "House of Gambling," read Timothy Dalton.
As he read out the list of finalists, the works of the finalists were also displayed on the big screen behind him. Among them, Xiang Nan was shortlisted for two movies, which really made people at the scene and in front of the TV envious.
“I’ve read “When Harry Met Sally” and the story is really good.”
“Dead Poets Society” is definitely a good movie. If it doesn’t win an award, there must be a conspiracy.”
“Charles is really awesome. Two of his films were shortlisted. However, I think “Legend of Innocence” is also very qualified.”
"Why is "Speed" such an excellent movie not shortlisted for the Best Screenplay Award? Are only art films called movies?"
People commented one after another, feeling happy for Xiang Nan but also feeling sorry for him.
Subsequently, Brooke Shields announced the winners.
“The winner of the Best Screenplay Award is, Charles, for ‘When Harry Met Sally.’” she announced happily.
As soon as the list was announced, the audience burst into warm applause.
Xiang Nan also became the first person to win the Golden Globe Award for Best Screenplay.
In fact, the judges were hesitant when awarding this award to Xiang Nan because there had never been a best screenwriter for Lian Zhuang. To award awards like this is tantamount to breaking convention.
But unfortunately, Xiang Nan’s script was written really well. "When Harry Met Sally" and "Dead Poets Society" are both well-known. If you don''t give it, you will face a lot of pressure.
So in the end, it was all about the work, and Xiang Nan received the most votes and won the Best Screenplay Award.
Xiang Nan stood up calmly.
??Nicole Kidman, Halle Berry, Michelle Pfeiffer and others sitting next to him all sent hugs.
?This scene made many men’s eyes red.
“Congratulations, Charles.” Brooke Shields handed the trophy to Xiang Nan, and then gave her a kiss, which made the audience in the audience and in front of the TV a little embarrassed.
"Thank you." Xiang Nan took the trophy and said, "I am really honored to receive this trophy again. I am very grateful to the judges for their love and to the fans for their support. I will continue to create good works and repay everyone! Thank you !”
…
Xiang Nan then returned to the stage carrying the trophy.
?Halle Berry and Nicole Kidman took it over with envy and took a good look at it.
??At present, neither of them has won a single award, which is really rare.
“Hey, I don’t know when I will win the award.” Nicole Kidman said with emotion.
?Her acting skills are quite impressive in Australia, but after going to Hollywood, she realized that there are really many good actors.
?Like Susan Sarandon, Jodie Foster, Meryl Streep, etc., they are all great actors and their acting skills are really good. Compared with them, my acting skills are really not good enough.
?Halle Berry also nodded. She also wanted to win the award, but she never had the chance.
Xiang Nan smiled.
?As far as he knew, both of them had won Oscars.
??Nicole Kidman won the film in 2003 with the movie "The Hours"; Halle Berry won the film in 2002 with "Death Row".
?However, Nicole Kidman almost lost her face in order to win this award; and Halle Berry borrowed the light of Zheng Zhi, and the best actor and actress that year were all won by African Americans. "Don''t worry, there is a chance." Xiang Nan patted Nicole Kidman''s hand.
?Nicole Kidman heard this and nodded.
…
Subsequently, Dead Poets Society''s luck seemed to have run out.
The three awards of Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Film were all missed, which made many fans depressed.
They believe that "Dead Poets Society" is definitely qualified to win the three awards of Best Director, Best Actor and Best Picture. It is a pity that the Golden Globe Awards gave these three awards to other films out of balance considerations.
For example, Spike Lee''s "Do What You Have to Do."
??Nicole Kidman and Halle Berry saw this and kept comforting Xiang Nan, for fear that he would not be able to think about it.
?However, Xiang Nan is obviously more generous than they thought. Although he lost three heavyweight awards, it did not ruin his good mood.
After all, "Dead Poets Society" grossed $95 million at the box office, which is quite a hit. Since I have made so much money, it is worth forgivable to lose some money in awards. You can''t always let yourself get every good thing.
So he was not disappointed, but smiled and blessed those winners.
…
After the Golden Globe Awards, there is a party as usual.
? Xiang Nan, Halle Berry and Nicole Kidman also attended the party.
"Charles, thank you for recommending me to star in "Beetlejuice." Winona Ryder expressed her gratitude to Xiang Nan.
??The film made more than 70 million U.S. dollars at the box office in North America and as high as 150 million U.S. dollars globally. It was Winona''s first box office hit.
??She became an instant hit and became a rising star in Hollywood.
She also found out afterwards that she was able to star in this film because of Xiang Nan''s recommendation, so now she expresses her gratitude to him.
"You''re welcome. If you really want to thank me, treat me to a cup of coffee another day." Xiang Nan smiled.
Winona heard this and nodded.
Bruce Willis also came to express his gratitude to Xiang Nan.
? Xiang Nan recommended him for his role in "Warm Family", which earned a box office of US$100 million, which was higher than the "RoboCop" he starred in. This move also established the position of Hollywood''s first-line superstar.
??Although it is still far behind Xiang Nan, the salary has also increased to 6 million US dollars, which is several times higher than before.
Xiang Nan smiled and nodded, "You''re welcome, I will make money if you become popular. We will cooperate more in the future. Remember to give me a discount."
“Don’t worry, if you invite me to film in the future, I will always treat you as a friend.” Bruce Willis smiled.
Xiang Nan smiled.
Subsequently, he finalized two more projects.
One is "Born on the Fourth of July" written and directed by Oliver Stone, and the other is "Dangerous Days" adapted from Stephen King''s novel.
?Oliver Stone is a well-known director in Hollywood. His "Platoon", "Wall Street" and "El Salvador" are all classics.
?However, his reputation in the industry is not very good, because he likes to take contraband, causing his emotions to always be out of control, so film producers are classified as dangerous and dare not invest in him.
Movies adapted from Stephen King''s novels often do not do well at the box office, so investors tend to stay away from them.
