Hollywood Road - Chapter 702
Seeing the Stanton disciples gathered in front talking and laughing, as if they were already the biggest winner of this year’s Academy Awards, Leonardo DiCaprio felt very upset in his heart, the sudden gush of depression. It made him feel uncomfortable and wanted to shout out. If he didn’t do something, he might go crazy.
At the end of this awards season, Leonardo DiCaprio actually knows very well that his nomination for best actor is a nomination, and the chance of winning will not exceed 15%. I am afraid it is not as good as ” “Twelve Years as a Slave”, the black actor Chevat Egarford has a high chance of winning.
A series of money laundering scandals that broke out during the award season obviously affected him.
Looking at Murphy Stanton, the core of Stanton’s party members, Leonardo DiCaprio determined that he did these things, even if there is no evidence to prove it.
His efforts this year have turned into running water, and he will have to run with an Oscar.
If these were tolerable, the 40 million dollars that were then forced to throw out almost made Leonardo DiCaprio vomit blood.
That’s forty million dollars!
Thinking of forty million dollars, Leonardo DiCaprio unconsciously walked towards the place where Stanton’s party members were.
Even if you know that it’s useless to say more, how can you bear it?
With Gal Gadot’s reminder, Murphy turned his head and looked at Leonardo DiCaprio. Seeing that the other party had walked six feet away, he immediately put a smile on his face and greeted him, “Hi , Leo, I’m so happy to see you.”
Leonardo DiCaprio nodded blankly, “Murphy Stanton…”
Robert Downey Jr., James Franco, Jonah Hill, Seth Logan, Margot Robbie and Gal Gadot all all looked at Leonardo Di Caprio.
Among them, with the exception of Robert Downey Jr., who had a good relationship at the time, everyone else looked at Leonardo DiCaprio and looked a little uncomfortable.
If it was just the personal conflict between Murphy and Leonardo DiCaprio, it wouldn’t be the case. But when the Catholics attacked Murphy, Leonardo DiCaprio fell into trouble and put Stanton’s followers into trouble. Movies have been involved in this storm of public opinion, and these people naturally don’t want to see him.
Margot Robbie had no friendship with Leonardo DiCaprio before, and he leaned into Gal Gadot’s ear and said, “The famous Oscar is here to accompany the runner.”
The voice was not high, it just happened to reach Leonardo DiCaprio’s ears.
Leonardo DiCaprio turned his head and glanced at Margot Robbie, his anger flashed away. This Australian actress was backed by Murphy Stanton and Stanton’s party members, so there was no need to buy him. The account of the superstar, he has nothing to do with the other party.
Margot Robbie looked at Leonardo DiCaprio without fear, with a grinning expression on his face.
“You started celebrating in advance?” Leonardo DiCaprio’s eyes finally turned back to Murphy, “Do you need me to congratulate you?”
Murphy smiled and said unceremoniously, “Thank you!”
Seeing Murphy’s unyielding attitude, Leonardo DiCaprio’s face flashed with irritation, “You are very confident.”
“How can you do without confidence?” Murphy shrugged. “If you don’t have confidence, you won’t be a professional escort.”
Leonardo DiCaprio clenched his fists in an instant, but when he saw Murphy’s playful eyes, he calmed down a bit, knowing that if he made a move, he would probably be out of luck.
Ten feet away from here, Brad Pitt has been watching Murphy and Leonardo DiCaprio, and Angelina Jolie next to him is also very interested.
“Leonardo DiCaprio has met Murphy Stanton.” Angelina Jolie smiled gleefully, “Will they fight? Who will win if they fight? “
“No.” Brad Pitt made a certain judgment, “Don’t forget where it is now.”
This is the Dolby Theater where the Oscars is being held. If someone takes the initiative, the old guys in the college will probably remember it for a lifetime.
Angelina Jolie also knew that it was impossible to fight, and said, “They were making a lot of trouble before. Leonardo DiCaprio lost 40 million dollars in vain. Now I must have a breath.”
“The worse the noise, the better.” Brad Pitt laughed. “The fierce competition between them will cancel each other out, and my “Twelve Years as a Slave” can profit from it!”
He is not only the producer of “Twelve Years as a Slave”, but also the main investor. This film was originally produced by his Plan B film company.
Since taking this film to join the Oscar game, Brad Pitt never thought of returning empty-handed.
“Some things need to be enough.” Leonardo DiCaprio looked at Murphy, “I don’t know if you have heard a story!”
Murphy shrugged, did not speak, just made a please gesture.
Leonardo DiCaprio didn’t wait for him to speak at all, and said, “A mouse fell into a half-full rice tank. This accident made the mouse overjoyed. After confirming that there was no danger, it ate and ate. After that, they went to sleep. The mice ate and slept in the rice tank like this, and slowly became fat and fat, and could no longer climb out. Finally, they were beaten to death in the rice tank!”
“Is my life ruined by greed?” Murphy didn’t care about Leonardo DiCaprio’s metaphor at all, and moved closer and said, “It’s a wonderful and philosophical story.”
He suddenly smiled, “Leo, let me tell a story too.”
“God asked the angel to find the bad guy in this world and write it to him. The angel was very embarrassed and couldn’t write it.” Murphy was full of nonsense, “Seeing that the date God gave is approaching, the angel thought of a good way, the world There are too many bad people in, and there is no way to write them one by one, but there are few good people, but it can be done. The angel gave God a list with the names of good people. Those who are not on this list are all bad people.”
He looked at Leonardo DiCaprio, “Do you know who is on this list?”
Leonardo DiCaprio didn’t understand what it meant, and asked casually, “Who is there?”
“Only gods and angels know who is on the list!” Murphy spread his hands and pointed to Leonardo DiCaprio, “but I’m sure you and I are not on this list!”
Murphy’s tone turned cold, “Leo, what do you want to do when you come here? Find fairness? Or denounce the bad guys? Don’t be stupid, the whole world knows we are bad guys.”
“Bad guys must have the consciousness of bad guys.” Murphy was actually deliberately molesting Leonardo DiCaprio. “Bad guys must have bad guys’ ways of doing things, bad guys must admit that they are bad guys and pretend to be good guys. The bad guys are the most disgusting.”
“You…” Leonardo DiCaprio’s anger was aroused.
Murphy stopped talking, just looked at Leonardo DiCaprio, as if waiting for something, Leonardo DiCaprio’s face flushed…
“That…” Robert Downey Jr. said suddenly, “Time is almost up, let’s get into the theater quickly.”
“Yeah.” Murphy greeted the people around him, “Let’s go.”
He knew that Robert Downey Jr. had a close relationship with Leonardo DiCaprio before, and he certainly didn’t want to see Leonardo DiCaprio making an unmanageable mess.
Leaving the VIP lounge, on the way to the main hall of the Dolby Theater, Robert Downey Jr. walked up to Murphy and said in a low voice, “Leo and I were always friends before.”
Murphy nodded, “I just teased him.”
Robert Downey Jr. didn’t say anything. Leonardo DiCaprio was a friend, but Murphy was a brother, and he did his best to do so.
As the first person among Stanton’s followers who knew Murphy and went to jail together, he knew Murphy was easy to say, so he dug a hole and waited for Leonardo DiCaprio to jump in by himself. .
Murphy and his party went directly to the middle part of the second row of seats, where the organizer arranged for the “Dark City” crew to take a seat.
Some people from the crew have arrived early, Josh Griffith, Helena Espola, David Robbie and Philip Raschel each sitting here with their companions, occupying a large area.
“Dark City” has received thirteen Oscar nominations, and at least thirteen admissions, plus the relatives and friends they bring, it seems to be extremely powerful.
Murphy and Gal Gadot had just sat down, and Leonardo DiCaprio also came over. The seat of the crew of “The Great Gatsby” is to the right of the crew of “The Dark City”. There is only one aisle between the two sides!
Later, more crew members of “The Great Gatsby” also came over.
“That…” Gal Gadot motioned to Murphy with his eyes, “It’s Kerry Mulligan, right?”
Murphy turned his head and glanced, and said openly, “Yes, it’s her, she looks more mature than before.”
The affair between him and Kerry Mulligan has long since become a mere mist.
Gal Gadot also knew that he was unique in Murphy’s heart. That Kerry Mulligan had no place at all. He just looked at it and turned his eyes to the other side.
“Interesting.” She couldn’t help laughing. “The seat of the crew of “Twelve Years as a Slave” is on our left.”
Murphy followed Gal Gadot’s gaze, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had just sat down.
On the left is “Twelve Years as a Slave” and on the right is “The Great Gatsby”, all of which are powerful competitors.
Of course, Murphy pays more attention to “Twelve Years as a Slave”!
As time went on, the main hall of the Dolby Theater gradually became quiet, music suddenly sounded, the curtain slowly opened on the stage, and the 86th Oscars ceremony officially began!
