Chapter 71: Encounter at Dinner(2/2)

Likewise, they are all considered to be sidekicks, and there are very few films that can win the Best Picture without the Best Director award. All of his leading actors and actresses have been nominated for acting awards.

Some people are making irresponsible remarks about Ronald's selection, because the famous British director Kubrick, whose "Full Metal Jacket" was not nominated for the best director, if he were replaced by Ronald, it would be the best director this year.

The nominees for Best Director are all foreigners.

Sighing, Ronald didn't want to get involved in a quarrel. He asked the waiter to pay, filled in a high number in the tip column, and handed it back to him.

Although the food here is not as delicious as lunch, they are all high-end places. If Ronald is stingy with tips, word will soon spread throughout Hollywood.

Everyone got in the car in the front hall and left, with Ronald and Diane staying at the end.

"Ronald, Ronald...you are here too..."

A voice with an Italian accent came from behind.

"Roberto?" Ronald turned around and saw Italian actor Roberto Benigni talking to him. He was dancing happily, "Let me introduce to you, this is our Italian left-wing national treasure director...

"

"Mr. Bertolucci, I saw you filming in the Forbidden City..." Ronald smiled with the director of The Last Emperor who chose this expensive restaurant together.

"Ah, they are really very good people. I am very grateful to the Chinese for letting me go shooting..." When Bertolucci saw Ronald, he talked a lot about how good the Chinese were, john lone

, how dedicated the two actors are to Joan and so on.

Ronald waved to the two Chinese actors behind him. The Film Academy was also under great pressure. Many people openly or covertly accused the Academy of racial discrimination. As a last resort, the organizing committee of the awards ceremony invited

John Lone and Joan went to serve as award presenters. This was a very unusual move among actors who did not win the award in the previous year. It was a gesture.

"Director Ronald..." Joan came over to say hello to Ronald. She was not very proficient in English, but this Oriental accent was perfect for playing a Chinese female character.

"It's a pity that you didn't get a nomination. Logically speaking, an epic film uses the protagonist to present the world in his eyes and depict the scene at that time. It seems unreasonable not to nominate the protagonist." Ronald looked at John Lone.

It's even more unfair that he didn't get a nomination, as the Golden Globe award was given to him.

"Ronald, can we chat for a few words?" Producer Jeremy Thomas came over and interrupted, asking to chat with Ronald privately.

"Well, actually I'm going back soon." Ronald didn't want to be taken advantage of.

"It won't take long, and you will see that our momentum is very good..."

Producer Thomas, who was about to give a long speech, suddenly saw two people in suits and sunglasses running over from a distance.

"Well, I'll leave first and we'll talk later." He hurriedly turned back to the restaurant and disappeared into the kitchen.

"Oh God..." Upon seeing this scene, Bertolucci took out a small bottle from his pocket, poured out two small pills, and swallowed them into his mouth.

"Are you okay?" Ronald asked in surprise and concern.

"It's okay, the medicine I usually take is just like high blood pressure..." Bertolucci smiled bitterly and changed the topic. He didn't have high blood pressure because the box office was really not good, and there were some Oscars where the leading actor was not nominated.

Controversy. If he can't win a few heavyweight Oscars, it will be difficult for anyone to believe that he will make big movies in the future.

Bertolucci was already depressed, and the doctor prescribed him antidepressants. He took them for several weeks and finally got better recently.

"Bernardo, Ronald, look here, look here, take a photo of us."

The photojournalist was waiting outside the restaurant. There has been a lot of news about "The Last Emperor" recently, and as expected, they stayed there...

"Moonlight and the Last Emperor formed a private alliance, how many prizes will be divided among the others?" The reporter clicked the shutter and calculated in his mind that with such a sensational title, he could buy hundreds of dollars.

"Hey, don't take pictures. Bernardo and I met by chance in a restaurant. We just chatted about our experiences filming together in China."

"Stop peddling, just make a price." Niceta went up. He understood the process of these gossip reporters. He took the photos and sold them to the media, and then asked the celebrities who were photographed if they needed to take them back.

However, film directors who usually have little news value have become a favorite photo subject of the media amid recent calls for unfair Oscars.

Niceta negotiated a price and asked them to take out the film and expose it. After finally finishing it, she got into Ronald's car.

"How much is the total?" Ronald asked the price and asked Niceta to record it in his expense account.
