When I realized what special day next Sunday would be, Eva felt that her mind was a little too twisted. She subconsciously covered her mouth to avoid screaming more than joy. Eva turned the words just now in her head and confirmed that she had no misunderstandings. Then she said carefully, "So, sir." Eva deliberately emphasized this title, and then she heard Lance's chuckle coming from the other end of the phone.

It is undeniable that the magnetic chuckle is very charming, but she is not interested, she is not interested at all, and she is not interested at all. "I would like to ask, is this invitation as a director or as a friend?" Eva tried to ease her tone, don't look too nervous or too fussy, but the problem is that it is really incredible.

The identity of the director means that it is an unspoken rule. So what should she do? Should she agree? Or should she ask the agent if it is an unspoken rule, does it mean that after the Oscars, there is a follow-up. But why is it the Oscar? During the audition and in the crew, the unspoken rules did not happen. Now the movie has been completed. Will Lance delete all the shots he has taken?

The identity of a friend means a friend. So is this a date? Why did Lance ask for an appointment? She is not interested in him at all. He is not the type he likes at all. If it is not a date, what's going on? It's still self-indulgent.

Lance raised his eyebrows gently, and he could hear that although the rich emotions in Eva's voice could not be distinguished one by one, there seemed to be a trace of ominous premonition in his tone. He filtered his words in his mind again. Could it be that the way he asked was wrong.

"Friend. Of course, it's friends." Lance's voice seemed very relaxed, with a slight smile.

"Oh." Eva sighed softly. The emotions were so complicated that it was impossible to distinguish them clearly. Then Eva realized her rudeness and hurriedly concealed it, "Friends, of course, are friends." She also repeated Lance's words, "Sir, thank you for your invitation, I mean, I'm honored." Just the word "Sir" made the previous sentence extremely weird. Even if you don't need to continue listening, Lance knew what would happen next. "But I think I'm not very suitable for that occasion. However, I still want to thank you for your invitation."

Although attending the Oscar is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Eva really doesn't care much. As a French-born actor, the pride of European actors is still hidden in their bones, after all, young. "I'm really grateful" Eva repeated again, "I'm in the exercise now, please forgive my rudeness, and let me talk about it next time I meet." After that, Eva hung up the phone.

"How, how, how?" Gao Wen asked with great enthusiasm. He could not hear Eva's words just now, and only judged clues from Lance's words. There was a hint of expectation in his words and a little gloating.

Lance did not answer immediately, with a little confusion between his eyebrows, paused for a while, and said softly, "She refused." He was stunned for a moment, and he turned to look at Gao Wen and Ian, "Didn't I explain it clearly?"

In an instant, Gao Wen clapped his hands and laughed, and he was so happy that he fell from the sofa to the ground. Ian laughed out loud at this time. It was rare to see Lance being defeated once, especially after leaving Diorama Pictures, he had not seen Lance's confused expression in the past two years. This made Ian not give any face at all and released his mockery skills to his heart's content.

The only shame is that Theo is not present.

Looking at Gao Wen and Ian who were laughing loudly, Lance pursed his lips helplessly, and finally couldn't help laughing and burst into laughter.

The passage of time seems to have begun to speed up, but it seems to have slowed down because the end of the awards season is approaching. The tension that permeates Los Angeles is filled with tension little by little with the rise of the crowd, as if the whole city is starting to become lively. To be more precise, not just a city, but the whole United States is busy with the coming of this grand event. Because the bowstrings are tight to the extreme, when February 27th actually arrives, it becomes a little loose and cannot get nervous at all.

But this emotion only lasted for one morning. When the afternoon sun shone, the slowing pace once again accelerated at ten times. The nervous mood began to spread over the city in a hundred times posture, which was so dense that it was almost suffocating. Even the warm sunshine and the transparent blue sky in Los Angeles could not alleviate this situation. Time was like sand. The tighter it was grabbed, the faster it fell. Before there was even time to react, there was not much left before the red carpet was unveiled.

Nancy Black felt that his heart was about to be numb, and he took a deep breath, but the blood still started to accelerate without restraint. Oscars are here

In just one year, Nancy has become one of the top reporters of the Chicago Tribune in Los Angeles. She will never forget the Oscars last year. Not only because it was the stage for her to prove herself, but because of the excellent reports of the 76th Oscars, she won trust and grew up quickly. It was also because it was her famous work. She recorded the wonderful moment when Lancelot Strello first stepped on the red carpet on the red carpet, and after the ceremony, it became a hot topic reprinted by major newspapers.

A year later, standing at the entrance of the Kodak Theater on Hollywood Avenue again, Nancy thought she would start to adapt, but she didn't. She was still excited, still novel, and still nervous. She turned around and looked around. There were some strange faces, but more familiar faces. The industry of journalists has a high elimination rate, but once she stayed, the retirement rate was very low. Even the old reporter who participated in more than a dozen Oscars still had excitement on her face, and she couldn't wait to attend this grand event.

"Hey, Nancy, thank you for your help." A light voice came from beside him. Even without looking back, Nancy knew that the person was Javier Ulier. Javier just went to the bathroom to solve the problem of three urgent issues, so please Nancy help me take care of his equipment. "Huh, although this is the second time I participated, I still have no experience." A truly experienced reporter will not drink too much water from noon to avoid falling off the chain at critical moments. After entering the infield, the situation will be much better. "Fortunately, you have the help."

Nancy looked at Javier's shiny bald head and waved her hand. Even if she had just exposed the help, "I thought that if I experienced it once, I would become accustomed to it the second time, but obviously, this idea was wrong."

"Everything is new, isn't it?" Javier said with a chuckle. Feeling Nancy's curious eyes, Javier explained, "Every year, a new group of people will appear in Hollywood, and even those who stay will appear in a new look. Because, this is Hollywood."

Nancy's eyes lit up and she immediately understood. This is the Shura field with the highest elimination rate, this is the fame and fortune market where you don't advance or retreat, this is the Hollywood that rises in the rising sun and disappears in the sunset, so every year is brand new. This makes Nancy look at Javier deeply. As an entertainment reporter who has been relocated for less than three years, Javier's perspective on things is always so unique. No wonder his blog can become a beautiful landscape in the entertainment industry.

"So, what do you think Lance's new look this year?" Nancy and Javier became good friends. The biggest reason is that both of them rose up on Lance, which has also become the topic of discussion between the two.

Javier reconfirmed his tripod and said with a smile, "Actor." Just one word is enough to summarize everyone's thoughts, which was almost the biggest surprise that Lance brought last year. "What do you think?"

"I can't argue." Nancy spread her hands, "But I'm very curious about which female companion Lance will bring to attend this year."

"Female companion" Javier chewed this sentence and looked at Nancy meaningfully. Sure enough, women are more sensitive to gossip in this regard. Of course, men are also very concerned about romantic affairs. "Keira Knightley, I think it must be her."

"Don't forget, Jessica still starred in Lance's latest work." Nancy emphasized that although she wasn't sure whether it was "Sin City" or "Boy Scouts vs. Zombies", "She is Lance's muse, there is no doubt."

"That's not what I heard about." Javier shook his head, with an unfathomable expression. But obviously Nancy didn't buy it at all, and she sneered and left her eyes open. The voice of another reporter came from beside him, "I think it's not Kayla or Jessica, it's very likely that he is a new face." Javier and Nancy both turned their heads, and the reporter looked around, as if worried that others would eavesdrop. Then he lowered his voice and said, "Eva Green is the muse of Lance's new work, both of which are." It refers to the two films "City of Sin" and "Boy Scouts vs. Zombies". "Besides, with Lance's charm, I don't think it's strange that he changes his dates every day." After that, the reporter exchanged a glance with Javier, revealing the expression that only men understood, which made Nancy speechless.

The 77th Academy Awards Ceremony, Lance is not the protagonist, the real protagonist is the director and actor nominated by Clint Eastwood, Martin Scorsis, who competes for the Little Golden Man again, Tom Cruise and Leonardo DiCaprio, who are pointed at the tip of Maiman, Hillary Swank and Annette Bening, who are in the fateful reincarnation showdown.

But even so, when Lance appeared on the beginning of the red carpet, all the reporters' cameras were aimed at him in unison. Nancy looked around and only saw Lance alone, first confused, then guessed, and finally, a trace of sudden realization appeared in Nancy's eyes. To be continued.
