Chapter 80
Although Kristen deliberately avoided Xu Can, she seemed to care a lot about Stone.
In this slightly awkward atmosphere, the three took their seats in the venue, waiting for the Golden Globe Awards ceremony to begin.
The competition for this year's Golden Globes is relatively fierce.
Due to its comic book adaptation nature, *The Dark Knight* is difficult to enter the competition for Best Picture and Best Director, only receiving nominations for Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Score.
Xu Can didn't have any change in mentality; it didn't matter to him whether he won or not, he was just here to join in the fun.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm glad everyone is here at the Golden Globe Awards scene. I won't talk nonsense, let's start awarding!"
This year's Golden Globes are simple and direct; the host doesn't appear, only the award presenters go on stage.
"Please welcome the award presenter, Jennifer Lopez!"
The first guest is a well-known singer and actress, the wife of "Batman" Ben Affleck.
"The first is the Best Supporting Actress award. The nominees are..."
She really didn't drag it out, announcing the nominations as soon as she opened her mouth,
and finally presented the award to *I'm Not There*, played by the "Elf Queen," Cate Blanchett.
The Elf Queen delivered her acceptance speech in her standard British accent, her temperament quite elegant.
Then, various Hollywood celebrities served as award presenters, presenting awards for each category one by one.
Best Original Song: *Into the Wild*; Best Animated Feature: *Ratatouille*; Best Foreign Language Film: *The Diving Bell and the Butterfly*.
Best Screenplay: *No Country for Old Men*.
Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical: *Sweeney Todd*, Johnny Depp.
"Captain Jack" Johnny Depp has been very popular in recent years.
The *Pirates of the Caribbean* series he starred in has become one of Disney's ace IPs,
and has recently been the main competitor to Xu Can's films.
In fact, originally, the second and third parts of *Pirates of the Caribbean* were the annual box office champions.
Fanned by the wings of Xu Can, this butterfly, their influence has been greatly reduced.
The best of 2006 was *Spider-Man*, and the best of 2007 was *The Dark Knight*, both of which were Xu Can's films.
Disney's CEO is almost angry enough to get high blood pressure, but the person involved, Xu Can, is completely unaware.
Then DiCaprio appeared to present the award, presenting the Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical award to *La Vie en Rose*, Marion Cotillard.
When the middle-aged Leonardo DiCaprio stood together with Marion Cotillard and hugged,
Xu Can seemed to see the scene of the two looking at each other in front of the hotel window.
By the way, when will *Inception* be arranged!
Come to think of it, Nolan should have been brewing this script for a long time!
He had long wanted to film this movie, but unfortunately no one appreciated it, so he could only temporarily film *The Prestige* and *The Dark Knight*.
After *The Dark Knight* was a great success, he could reward himself with *Inception*.
Instead of benefiting others, it's better to benefit himself. He can talk to him later.
Speaking of which, *The Dark Knight* has been released for a month and is still unstoppable globally, breaking the $1 billion box office mark!
It's a pity it lost the Chinese mainland market, otherwise they would have had a chance to break the $1.1 billion mark created by *Spider-Man*.
Then there were some television awards presented. The 2007 Best Series went to *Mad Men*, and they won 3 television awards.
Among the many nominations, Xu Can didn't see some familiar names.
Perhaps the butterfly effect caused changes, making the series that should have appeared not appear.
After many secondary awards were presented, the Golden Globes also ushered in the last few important film awards!
"Next, let's welcome Scarlett Johansson to present the next award for us! Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture!"
Amidst the warm applause of the audience, Black Widow Scarlett Johansson, wearing a glittering evening gown, walked onto the stage.
At this time, she has just turned 24, in the most moving years between a woman's maturity and greenness.
She had just finished filming *The Black Dahlia*, and the police officer's fiancée she played in the film was sexy and beautiful.
Black Widow had already established her status as a first-line actress in Hollywood at a young age through many films in her ten-year acting career...
However, Chinese audiences are more familiar with her in *Iron Man*.
The blonde Black Widow, standing under the spotlight, was beautiful and moving, smiling at the audience.
"It's an honor to present this award... Wow, the five nominated actors are all quite excellent!"
"*The Assassination of Jesse James*, Casey Affleck!"
Every time Black Widow read a name, the big screen behind her would play clips of his performance in the film.
Casey Affleck, as Ben Affleck's younger brother, has quite a talent for acting.
However, he only truly reached his peak period with *Manchester by the Sea*.
At this time, he seemed a bit immature.
"*No Country for Old Men*, Javier Bardem!"
Before the start of this year's Golden Globes, Javier Bardem was the big favorite for Best Supporting Actor!
He is also Xu Can's most troublesome opponent.
Javier Bardem played a perverted killer in *No Country for Old Men*, and his portrayal made everyone who watched the film shudder.
This killer, along with John Wick and the Joker, became the three most impressive characters of 2007.
"*Hairspray*, John Travolta!"
John Travolta is also a heavyweight Hollywood actor, also known for portraying perverted villains.
The killer dancing the twist in *Pulp Fiction*, the protagonist in the first half and the villain in the second half of *Face/Off*,
and in *Hairspray*, he cross-dressed as a woman, his acting skills were breathtaking.
"*Michael Clayton*, Tom Wilkinson!"
This is also a veteran actor who has been working in Hollywood for decades, has been nominated for an Oscar many times, and has won many awards in various countries.
Finally, after introducing the circle, Black Widow finally introduced the last nominee.
"The next nominated actor, I believe everyone is no stranger to him. He has really risen to fame in the past two years."
"I believe many people have questions: where did this Chinese handsome guy come from?"
"The East is truly magical. You wouldn't have used magic on us, would you?"
Black Widow's little joke made the guests at the scene smile. The spotlight was simultaneously given to Xu Can, giving his handsome face with oriental features a full 10-second close-up.
Taylor Swift in front of the TV was originally painting her toenails. Seeing this scene, she forgot to work on her hands.
Is this the man who bullied her?
How can he be so gentle on TV, yet full of strength in battle, making her beg for mercy again and again?
Unfortunately, the next second, the camera cut to Emma Stone beside him.
Stone was leaning affectionately beside him, her whole body almost stuck to him.
On his right, there was also a cool, sassy girl, Kristen.
"He's quite a lady-killer... Damn it."
Swift gritted her teeth.
"Xu Can from China, this magical oriental man, has brought us huge surprises this year!"
"*The Dark Knight*, playing the Joker!"
At the same time, the screen behind was also playing wonderful clips of the film.
[I believe that whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you... stranger]
[I'm not a monster, I'm just ahead of the curve]
[I'm an agent of chaos. Do you know what chaos is? It's absolute fairness!]
[Why so serious!!!]
Just a few clips made the guests at the scene applaud.
The Joker was indeed the most eye-catching and surprising character of 2007!
Xu Can's performance really made the whole of Hollywood marvel!
"Let's reveal who the winner of Best Supporting Actor is tonight!"
Black Widow opened the award envelope bit by bit, and the TV camera split into five, giving it to the 5 nominated actors.
Everyone had different expressions on their faces, waiting for the result to be revealed.
