?Chapter 517 Visiting Howard Stringer

"The nominees for Best Actress at the Academy Awards are Charlize Theron, "All the Time," Leanne Zellweger, "Chicago"; Julian Moore, "Far From Heaven," and Sarah, "Frida" Irma Hayek, Diane Lane in "Infidelity."

Guo Shouyun frowned slightly as he watched the clips of the five shortlisted films played on the big screen. If he remembers correctly, this time the Oscar winner should be Nicole Kidman, the heroine of "The Moment". But now the movie is still the same movie, but the heroine has changed.

Looking at Charlize Theron, who was equally beautiful and intellectual below, and after the owner announced the award, Charlize Theron appeared on the stage to accept the award with joy, Guo Shouyun pondered for a moment, "Buddy, there seems to be no news of Nicole Kidman in Hollywood recently?"

"Her agency officially announced Nicole Kidman's retirement two years ago, don't you know?"

"Two years ago?!"

Guo Shouyun shook his head. At that time, immersed in the sadness of Molly Bevan falling into a coma, and taking care of two infant children, he paid little attention to what was going on in the outside world except for the company, let alone Hollywood.

"Do you know why?"

"Not very clear."

"Some Hollywood gossip media said it was because Nicole Kidman needed to take care of the children, so she stopped filming!" Eva Green, who was sitting next to her, suddenly said.

"child?"

Guo Shouyun remembered what happened when Nicole Kidman asked him for an autograph last time he attended the Sony dinner.

"How did you know?"

"When I first arrived in Hollywood, there was a lot of media coverage of Tom Cruise accusing Nicole Kidman of cheating in their marriage and the reason for their divorce," Eva Green said.

Noticing the boss's gaze, Buddy Morris nodded, "The media did report it for a while, but with Nicole Kidman's own silence, and the decision to leave the shadow, this matter was a month or two later. It was never mentioned again."

Guo Shouyun, who knew it in his heart, didn't ask much. But out of a woman's instinct, Eva Green felt that there must be some unknown news between the man around him and the famous Nicole Kidman.

However, she was smart and didn't ask much. Not only is there no jealousy in my heart, but there is even some joy. As a third party, if he is facing a man who is prefect of 'rules', then he has no chance.

"Boss, do you need me to investigate her news?"

Guo Shouyun nodded after thinking about it. I don't know why, but he always has an inexplicable concern in his heart for this woman who only has one seat. In contrast, Yang Lishan, who had been lingering many times, was able to let go of it freely.

"…Wait a minute, wait a minute, stop the music, thank you."

When Guo Shouyun was about to continue to say something, some small situations on the stage interrupted his words.

Taking a closer look, it turned out to be Adrien Brody, the 'brow eyebrow', who won the best actor at the 75th Academy Awards for "The Pianist". However, compared to winning the award, this gentleman is more fond of talking about the fact that many female stars have been 'wolf kissed' by this gentleman. Similar to Harry Berry, who awarded him this time, Charlize Theron, who won the best actress next year, and so on.

Fortunately, the West is relatively open to kissing. If he dared to do this in the East, he would have been criticized by the newspapers long ago.

"...The opportunity is rare, I am really very happy, but also a little sad. Because accepting this award at this moment, making this film makes me particularly deeply appreciate the suffering of wartime, the dehumanization of evil and the consequences of war. Whether you believe in God or God, may He take care of you. Pray for peace and a solution.... A friend of mine who is in the army is in Kuwait. Tommy, hope you and your countrymen will be back soon. God bless you! I Love you all! Thank you!"

With his words, almost all the stars in the audience stood up to applaud him. Clearly, at the Oscars today, 'anti-war' is a topic that everyone agrees on.

In fact, Adrien Brody's attitude is already good. Michael Moore, the director of the best documentary "Bowling in Columbine", came up with the first sentence of "Shameful President Bush", which was similar to pointing at the other party's nose and scolding, which shocked the audience.

"With today's Oscars broadcast, the White House and Mr. President are probably going to have a headache!" Buddy Morris laughed.

"Although Hollywood has a strong influence among ordinary people, it cannot shake the decision of the ruling class." Guo Shouyun said indifferently.

Although the United States often interferes in the internal affairs of other countries in the name of democracy and freedom, in its own country, the solidification of classes is almost monolithic. If it weren't for the strong rise of the Internet industry, ordinary people, including Guo Shouyun, Jeff Bezos, Larry Page, and Sergey Brin, would not have the chance to enter the top.

The so-called democracy and freedom are nothing but the emperor's new clothes, deceiving ordinary people. Once the fundamental interests are involved, the shadows of the power class are all behind it. Therefore, after the end of Bush's first term, he was still re-elected, even if the anti-war wave up and down the country increased.

"...Buddy, don't spend too much energy on anti-war propaganda in the company's media. You can even cater to the White House sometimes!"

Looking at the boss with deep eyes, Buddy Morris nodded.

It doesn't matter if other people don't know the future of the United States, but he is very clear about the trend of American politics in the next ten years. He doesn't want to do something that doesn't do him any good to go against the Bush family. Moreover, a war in the Middle East has nothing to do with him, and even has some benefits, why should he object? In addition, for Guo Shouyun, who still believes that he belongs to the Chinese in his bones, the US war in Iraq is of great benefit to the rise of China.

Officially, because the two wars in Iraq and Afghanistan involved most of the energy and financial resources of the United States, it gave China time for the development of the golden decade of the 21st century, and laid the foundation for its rise in the next decade.

Therefore, no matter from the perspective of self-interest, national feelings and the future of the country, he not only would not oppose the war, but was very supportive. Of course, this kind of emotion is not enough for outsiders.

"Boss, Mr. Howard Stringer of Sony wants to see you."

Matthew came over and said respectfully.

Guo Shouyun looked at the time and smiled: "I thought he would come to me after the party today, but now it seems that things are more interesting than I thought."

"Sony's board must have put a lot of pressure on him!" Buddy Morris also laughed.

Guo Shouyun nodded slightly, "Let him come in."

Matthew nodded and walked out of the box. It didn't take long, and a smiling Howard Stringer walked in in a black suit.

"Mr. Guo, long time no see!"

While speaking, Howard Stringer gave Guo Shouyun a warm hug. When the relationship between the two parties has not yet reached this level, Howard Stringer's deliberate closeness reveals a different purpose.

Guo Shouyun did not show any refusal, but accepted the other's closeness very happily. In the eyes of Eva Green next to them, the relationship between the two sides seems to be really close friends. But only they know in their own hearts that there are silent interest demands hidden behind the surface closeness.

"Buddy, we meet again."

"Mr Stringer!"

"Miss Eva is very beautiful! It's an honor to meet you."

"Thank you! You are so kind!"

Looking at this stomping, the respect for himself expressed in the words of a powerful figure in Hollywood trembles. While being flattered, Eva Green once again realized the admirable status of the man she was attached to in the field of film and television media.

With the comparison of Howard Stringer, the CEO of Sony, it is far more intuitive and shocking than the information seen from the data.

After a simple greeting, everyone took their seats.

"Mr. Guo, what do you think of Oscar tonight?"

"Very good. However, unfortunately there are not many films shortlisted by the Matrix."

"The Academy of Motion Picture Arts, which is in charge of the awards, likes what they think are art films~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and scoffs at our commercial films. So it's not just The Matrix, but we at Sony Entertainment also don't have a few films that win. However, the awards and We're just icing on the cake. As CEO, I'm more concerned about the box office. In that regard, Matrix is ​​a big winner in Hollywood this year."

“…Fifty Shades of Darkness and Fake Points of God combined by Pixar’s “Fifty Shades of Darkness” at the box office of nearly 900 million US dollars, and Universal’s still-hot “Hulk” at the box office already More than 200 million US dollars, in terms of the current box office curve, breaking 400 million is almost a certainty. Plus about 800 million US dollars of "Spider-Man 2", and "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" and "Rage" released in the second half of the year The two blockbusters Hai Zhengfeng: Polar Expedition, the global box office of Matrix this year will undoubtedly exceed 5 billion US dollars. This kind of achievement is several times that of our Sony.”

Guo Shouyun smiled lightly as he watched the other party's twinkling eyes staring at him. Howard Stringer deliberately strengthens the tone of the two figures "Spider-Man 2" and "$5 billion", and the reminder and vague envy in them are self-evident.

"Sony's results are also very good, especially "Adapted Screenplay" has won four Oscar nominations for Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Actor. This won the Best Supporting Actor award. In terms of box office, Terminator 3 and Charlie's Angels also did well."
