As the awards were handed out one after another, the ceremony took a break and singing, dancing, singing and rap were performed on the stage one by one.

...

The performance ended and the ceremony entered the second half, where important awards began to be presented.

The judge on the stage was replaced by another person, who took the microphone and spoke slowly to the crowd.

"Congratulations to Hilary Swank for Best Actress in a Drama for Million Dollar Baby."

Below the stage, Scarlett could not hide her disappointment when she heard the result announced by the judges. Although she knew that her chances of winning were slim, everyone had expectations in their hearts.

As the applause ended, it was time to present the Best Actor in a Feature Film.

Gu Wei glanced at Leonardo and saw that his face was full of anticipation and his eyes were staring straight at the judges.

"Best Actor in a Drama Film Leonardo Dicaprio for The Aviator. Congratulations."

In an instant, Leonardo jumped up, shouting loudly, and hugged the crew members one by one.

"Will, are you okay?"

Gu Wei turned to look at Will Smith and said comfortingly.

"Gu, I'm fine."

Will Smith's mouth twitched and he answered with a somewhat lost look in his eyes.

"Will, there's Oscar later, there will be a chance."

"Yes, the Oscar is our ultimate goal." Will Smith regained his fighting spirit after hearing Gu Wei's words.

“He is a young director whose talent is undoubted.

The Best Director award went to Gu Wei for "The Pursuit of Happyness". Congratulations."

"Gu, we succeeded," Will Smith shouted loudly.

Gu Wei secretly clenched his fists, stood up and hugged each crew member.

“I would like to thank the jury for giving me this award, which is the greatest recognition for me.

Of course, I also want to thank the crew, without their help, I would not have been able to succeed.

Finally, I want to thank my partner Will Smith, he is a very good actor, I look forward to continuing to work with him, thank you all. "

Gu Wei was on the stage, holding the Best Director trophy in one hand and the microphone in the other, giving his acceptance speech.

The speaking time was very short. After Gu Wei finished speaking, he handed the microphone to the judges and walked off the stage with a smile.

Suddenly, warm applause broke out and people in the audience stood up and looked at the young director.

The media reporters all pointed their cameras at Gu Wei and kept taking pictures.

"Gu, congratulations."

Gu Wei returned to his seat and heard Leonardo's congratulations.

"Thank you."

The award ceremony went quickly, and with Gu Wei winning the Best Director award, only the Best Feature Film award remained.

There were no surprises and "The Aviator" won the award. Leonardo looked very excited and had a smile on his face all the time.

After the award ceremony, the cocktail party continued at the Hilton Hotel.

More people gathered around Gu Wei. No one didn't want to meet the best director, especially celebrity artists.

After the cocktail party, Gu Wei left directly and returned to his hotel room.

.........

That night, the news that Gu Wei won the Best Director and Best Screenwriter awards appeared in the Hollywood media, and Hollywood reporters reported it one after another.

The Golden Globe Awards can be seen as a barometer of the Oscars every year. Gu Wei's winning of the Best Director award also represents this year's Oscars, and this film is likely to win an important award.

The news from Hollywood was transmitted back to China overnight. It was obvious that it made the headlines the next day, along with Gu Wei's award-winning photos and acceptance speech.

Most major media reported the news truthfully. There was inevitably some exaggeration in the news, but it was not excessive. After all, the Golden Globe Awards are not very prestigious. Try the Oscars instead.

"'The Pursuit of Happyness' won two of the five awards, Best Director and Best Screenplay."

"Director Gu Wei won the Best Director award, and Leonardo DiCaprio won the Best Actor award."

"House of Flying Daggers lost the Golden Globe Award and missed the Best Foreign Language Film."

"Director Zhang told reporters in an interview that he will continue to work hard and look forward to the Oscars."

A large number of netizens also posted comments online, but most of them were about the Oscars, and they were full of anticipation for the Oscars in a month.

 If you have extra monthly tickets and recommendation tickets, please give some to me. Thank you!
