Moreover, when he visited the crew, he helped Dustin Hoffman solve the problem of not being able to perform. Levinson did not mention his name.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Of course, it is not difficult to understand. Facing Ronald, who is much younger than himself, and a competitor, in this case, only an open-minded person can

Be honest about who you have benefited from.

Although Ronald understands, he still feels uncomfortable. You have already won and won the trophy. Mentioning me will not damage your reputation in the slightest. Can I still take credit from you?

…

After the awards, Dustin Hoffman returned from backstage. This time he took the stage with Tom Cruise to present the award for Best Actress.

"I was so excited just now that I forgot to mention Tom in my thank you speech. Thank you, Tom, I love you..."

Dustin Hoffman first apologized for his gaffe and won a round of applause. Such a humble winner will give people a lot of favor, and the loser will not feel too uncomfortable.

Tom Cruise was also a little moved, and his resentment for not getting the nomination was reduced a lot. At least he wouldn't vent it out to Dustin Hoffman.

Who will win the award this time? Ronald feels that Melanie Griffiths has a relatively good chance. Several other actress nominees, such as Mel Streep, Sigourney

Weaver, Jodie Foster, Glenn Gross. None of them have received as many major award nominations as her.

If a movie has no other awards but only one leading role award, it is very abrupt. If no one else is good, only one heroine's performance is top-notch. This kind of thing does not happen often.

The only movie with more nominations was Glenn Gross in "Dangerous Liaisons". She and actress Michelle Pfeiffer won Best Actress and Supporting Actress respectively. However, this movie was not nominated for Best Director. May

Lanie Griffiths has also received a lot of media attention recently, and she may still win more awards than Gross.

"The winner for Best Actress is..." Tom Cruise opened the envelope and let Hoffman reveal the answer.

"Jodie Foster... robbed Pear Blossom!"

"Today's night doesn't belong to me..." Ronald lamented, how could this happen?

The last time there was only one nomination for a whole movie, the winner of Best Actress was Sophia Loren in 1960. But that year, half of the male stars in Hollywood fell under her skirt.

Jodie Foster was wearing a light blue low-cut dress. She was obviously very nervous. She kept adjusting her skirt with her hands to prevent it from being exposed.

"Hahaha……"

Jodie Foster couldn't help laughing as she received the trophy from Tom Cruise.

The audience all responded with smiles. It was actually very difficult for this actress. She was innocently involved in the assassination of the former commander-in-chief. After lying dormant for many years, she finally made a breakthrough.

"I would like to thank Kelly McGillis, and... all the crew, including the director, screenwriter..."

Jodie Foster looked in the direction of Ronald and almost said thank you to Ronald. But after all, she was a top student at Yale, so she stopped in time and did not exchange herself with McGillis for this opportunity with Ronald.

Let's talk about things.

"Don't worry, there's another Best Picture..." Diane felt Ronald's palms begin to sweat again and hurried over to comfort him.

"Tonight is not for working girls," Ronald lamented, and he no longer had any hope for the best picture.

The awarding guest was a single female star, the last Best Actress, Cher.

Traditionally, she should be the one to present the Best Actor statuette, but this year's award ceremony was so bad that Ronald is used to it.

Cher seemed to have gotten a hint from the organizing committee that time was running out, so she stopped telling some jokes and quickly announced that the winning movie was "Rain Man."

Mark Johnson, the producer of "Rain Man," went up to give his acceptance speech.

"I've been taught over the past six weeks that producers who win awards have a lot of people to thank. I thank Peter Guber, who did everything an executive producer should do. I thank the director and the writer, and I thank Tom and

Dustin. I should also be most grateful to Michael Ovitz, without whom this movie would not have been possible..."

Thanks again Ovitz!

Ronald felt very abnormal. Why did all the winners of "Rain Man" today, starting with Dustin Hoffman, break the rules and thank Ovitz?

Was it Ovitz who forced them to do this? He wanted to change his career as a producer and take over a big production company? Is this a declaration to everyone in Hollywood?

…

After the awards night, all the award-winners went to the lobby, with life-size Oscar models on their backs and trophies in their hands, and were interviewed and photographed by the media.

"Hi, congratulations, Mark."

While lining up for photos, Michael Ovitz went up to congratulate "Rain Man" producer Mark Johnson.

He was still a little envious when he looked at the statuette. Although he received most of the profits from "Rain Man", as an agent, he was not qualified to win the award, even though he was the producer who did most of the work.

People who work.

"However, you shouldn't thank me. The tradition of agent work is that we are behind the scenes..."

"Don't say that, Michael. This movie wouldn't have been successful without you. And Dustin and Barry both thanked you... We should take a group photo with you holding the Oscar trophy together." Mark Johnson

Pulled Ovitz to take a photo.

"Well, one piece is enough..."

Ovitz, who never took photos, made an exception and took one. He also figured it out. Anyway, the whole of Hollywood will know tomorrow that he broke the rules, so there is no point in covering up. Anyway, Sony's acquisition of Columbia is almost done.

That's it. When the time comes, I will be the CEO of the new Columbia company, and I will be a frequent person thanked at the Oscars in the future.

"Alan, Jean..."

After taking the group photo, Ovitz turned to the two nominees for "Mississippi Burning" and wanted to say hello and explain to them.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Humph..."

Gene Hackman sneered, turned his back, and walked directly to the hall next to him—the venue for the dinner after the Oscar ceremony.

"I will remember tonight..." Alan Parker was more aggressive. He came over and gave him a harsh word and ignored him.

Ovitz felt aggrieved. It was impossible for him to conjure up two Oscar-winning directors and two Oscar-winning actor statuettes.

Who can blame this? Good things are always scarce. If you want to blame, blame you for not being one of our own.

Ovitz also walked to the dinner hall, where only nominees and their friends could come in. He glanced left and right and saw the back of the tall Ronald. In front of him was Tom Cruise, two

People are chatting.

"This guy can still try to get some understanding. Who knows if he will wake up and find a Jewish girl to marry?" Ovitz walked up...

"Today was really embarrassing. Dustin apologized directly to me on stage, and I didn't even know how to answer it..." Tom Cruise joked with Ronald in a low voice.

"Forget it, my heroine last year even thanked the hairstylist, but he didn't thank me." Ronald also talked about Cher last year, "I must have been very nervous when I won the award, and forgetting my words is inevitable.

"

"Ha, me too, I am Cher's main agent, and she didn't thank me like everyone thanked Michael today."

The speaker was a handsome, tanned middle-aged man wearing a California casual shirt. His sweater was wrapped around his waist. It was completely different from Ovitz's usual suit-and-tie appearance.

He is the other owner of CAA, Ron Meyer.

Unlike Ovitz's nickname of "The Boxer," many people in the industry call him "Velvet Gloves." The two men's different styles and the division of labor between good cops and bad cops are evident from their nicknames.

"Yeah, Ronald." Ovitz broke into the conversation.

"I didn't actually manipulate any votes, I could only exert influence. These were the results of the judges' votes..." Ovitz was eager to explain the reason for Ronald's defeat. Before he became the CEO of the new company, Ronald

Nader can also bring him a lot of business.

"Tsk..." Ronald sneered. This person is really thick-skinned. He is still talking about this after all. The three winners all thanked you in their speeches... Is there any need to deny it?

"This may sound hard to believe, but there is no way I could have manipulated all the votes...Ronald, to say it was complete manipulation, I only manipulated one vote. My own vote was for Rain Man,

You know, I had more clients on that movie, and your movie didn't have so many CAA clients. It's a professional ethic..."

"Hahaha, stop talking nonsense, Michael..." Ronald laughed out loud, "The audience tonight and the audience in front of the TV have all seen and heard it. Be a man (

Be a man!)…bravely admit your abilities…”

"Hahaha..." Not only Ronald, but also Cruise and Ron Meyer next to him laughed out loud. At this point, there is no need to explain any more in front of knowledgeable people.

.

"Okay, you win, Ronald." Ovitz raised his hands in surrender. "I know it's hard for you to believe what I say. Let's move forward. I know your desire for an Oscar. So, let's do this."

Let’s talk about next year’s promising seed players.”

"Let's make an appointment again..." Ronald secretly thought that this man was really shameless and shook hands with him.

Everyone dispersed again to chat and socialize with their acquaintances.
