Chapter 114 Golden Globe Awards

The news reached China while Chen An was still in Africa.

The news that the new film was nominated for two Golden Globe Awards came from the media.

It caused quite a stir in the circle, but most people didn't feel anything.

Ballon d'Or?
What the hell?
Never heard of it.

Teacher Mu walked into the office holding the newspaper he bought in the morning. Looking at the news on it, he felt that his student was now very capable.

Two things were reported in the newspaper: one was that he was shortlisted for the Golden Globe Awards, and the other was that he was shortlisted for the main competition unit of this year's Berlin Film Festival.

I put the newspaper on the table and thought about how long it had been since this kid came to school. After he went out, he was like a wild dog that had broken free from its leash and I could not see him anymore.

I took out a portion of tea from the drawer, washed the cup that I had drunk from yesterday, brewed the tea, and went to the classroom to prepare for class.

With the newspaper and the homework handed in yesterday in my hand.

It was horrible, it made my blood pressure rise.

As soon as he entered the classroom, he threw the things on the table, and couldn't help sighing when he saw the twenty or so heads raised like quails and geese sitting in front of him.

He slammed his hand on the table and said, "Look for yourselves what you handed in!"

"I recruited so many of you because of your senior's success, but now that you've come in, you've been hanging out in the Performance Department all day. Their teachers have complained to me!"

I picked up the homework in my hand. On it were photos that I had ordered taken. It was obvious that they were a scam.

It's ok to trick a little girl, but to do it in front of me is embarrassing, do you know who taught Chen An? !

Then he threw the newspaper out and said, "You are really the worst class I have ever taught. Look at your senior. Not only did he win the Best Director Award at Cannes, he has also been nominated for the Golden Globe Award and the Berlin Film Festival."

"Look at you guys again, you're still trying to fool me with these things. Don't you even look at who taught you? We recruited you to learn photography, not to exchange ideas with the acting department!"

The students scratched their heads, speechless. Now that you have brought up Senior Brother Chen An, what else can we say?

第57届美国电影电视金球奖，漂亮国东部时间2000年1月23日晚8点贝弗利山庄的希尔顿酒店举行。

Although it is not an Oscar, it is also one of the more important awards in Hollywood.

It was only later that many Hollywood superstars refused to attend, but it is still a star-studded event now.

When the evening started, a large number of media had already gathered, and the camera flashes kept flashing in the middle of the night, making it just like daytime.

A wide red carpet was laid in front of the hotel, leading all the way to the interior of the hotel.

Just as the name of the award suggests, this is an award that covers both movies and TV series. Not only movie crews but also many TV crews come.

There are more nominated crews than Oscars, let’s take a look at them one by one.

"Little Miss Sunshine" was lined up behind the crew of "Notting Hill". The young actor walked in the front, holding the hand of Julia Roberts, the leading actress of the crew in front.

With her aunt, she was interviewed and flashed.

Chen An and others walked behind. Naomi rented a white evening dress and wore it. She walked on the red carpet holding the arm of Chen An, who was wearing a new tight suit.

On both sides of the red carpet, reporters held out rows of microphones wanting to interview and shoot with cameras.

"Look at me, Chinese boy!"

"Ms. Naomi, can you give me an interview?"

"Hey Chen, I'm a fan of yours, can I be interviewed?!"

Naomi didn't care but continued walking forward holding Chen An's arm. She was also one of the protagonists tonight and was nominated for the Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy.

Chen An accompanied him and accepted the flash of the light. He wouldn't be blinded for a while anyway.

Until we reached the end, the awards were arranged and the reporter was already waiting here. He asked, "Young director Chen and the beautiful Miss Naomi are both nominated for the Golden Globe Awards for the first time. Are you confident that you will win?"

Chen An thought for a moment and said, "I would be very confident if it was the Best Director award, but it's a pity that I was not nominated." Naomi seemed to have thought about it carefully and said seriously, "This is my first time to be nominated for this award. I am already very satisfied to have a nomination."

Then he nodded to indicate that his answer was finished.

At the reporter's signal, a staff member led them to the seats that had been arranged in advance for the crew.

As soon as he sat down, Chen An leaned back in the chair. He was tense because someone was staring at him all the time, but now he finally relaxed.

In front of the crew's position is the crew of "The Insider", and sitting in front of Chen An is Al Pacino, one of the four famous talented actors in Hollywood.

That is the second generation Godfather.

A man in a black suit sat in front of Chen An with his legs crossed.

Next door was the crew of "Notting Hill", and the leading actress Julia Roberts was sitting next to little Emma, ​​chatting about something.

The girl was very excited. It was her first time to attend such an event. Although she was not nominated, she was also included in the Best Film in the Musical or Comedy category.

I am looking forward to being on stage and receiving the award.

But the cold facts are that the Best Picture in the Musical or Comedy category was won by "Toy Story 2", and the movie that little Emma loved took the award she was expecting.

Naomi's Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy award was won by Janet McTeer, the actress of Dandelion.

Chen An had expected that "Little Miss Sunshine" would not receive any Golden Globe nominations this time, but Naomi, who had also thought about it, felt a little disappointed.

But he still kept smiling in front of the media, and finally expressed his gratitude for the nomination opportunity when facing the media interview when leaving.

At this Golden Globe Awards, the crew of "Little Miss Sunshine" went home defeated without gaining anything.

Chen An didn't feel anything and didn't want to come in the first place.

But seeing Naomi looking so sad, I felt that I needed to comfort her tonight.

On the other hand, Jerry said to Chen An happily afterwards: "Don't be discouraged, Chen. Wait for the Oscar nominations to be announced. I believe you won't be disappointed."

It seemed that he had received some news and didn't take the recent defeat seriously at all.

Chen An said, "I'm so discouraged. If you hadn't stopped me, I wouldn't have even wanted to come. Now I've already returned to my hometown to celebrate the New Year in advance."

Now I can't stay there for a few days and I have to go to Berlin.

He nodded without saying anything more. There were still people who needed his comfort, and that was what was important.

Let Zhao Xiong go back to the hotel first, and I will go to comfort him first.

Naomi is a sensible woman, and she recovered after Chen An's persuasion.

Before leaving, he still held Chen An reluctantly.

But Chen An really had something to do, and had to rush home to celebrate the New Year.

There will be no chance for the Chinese New Year as I have to go to Berlin, so I’ll go back early to get together.

After packing up their things, Chen An and Zhao Xiong flew back to Beijing two days later.

As soon as they landed, the reporters who were waiting there all rushed out when they saw Chen An coming out. They took out the microphone that they were about to put into Chen An's mouth and asked:
"Director Chen, this Golden Globe Award is your first failure, right? So do you still have confidence in this year's Berlin Film Festival?"

"Director Chen, now that your new movie has grossed over 100 million US dollars worldwide, do you have any new filming plans?"

"Director Chen, now that you have achieved great success in Hollywood, will you continue to stay in Hollywood or return to China for development in the future?"

"."

There is a lot of information inside and outside, and I don’t know where I got the information from.
