Chapter 276: Historic

Whoosh...

Applause began to ring out.

Eastwood coughed, waited for the applause to ring for a while, and then pressed his hands down, signaling everyone not to clap yet.

"What's going on? Did he read it wrong?"

Hong was clapping and marveling at Cao Yang's awesomeness. At this time, she couldn't help but feel confused and asked Chen with some worry.

Chen frowned, patted Hong's hand, and said softly: "With Cao Yang's current status, logically speaking, even Eastwood wouldn't tease him and deliberately read the wrong name..."

He actually wasn't sure either, and his heart was pounding.

Who knew if this old man on stage would go crazy? You have to know that this old man lost to Cao Yang at the Oscars last year. Was he holding a grudge and risking offending Cao Yang completely to play a trick on Cao Yang?

If that were really the case, he would go to the Film Bureau and slam the table when he went back, even if he mobilized all his connections, he would make the Film Bureau put this old thing on the blacklist and never let the old guy's films enter China again.

"Interrupting for a moment, wait a while before clapping. What I want to add is that this is the third time Cao Yang has won the Golden Globe for Best Screenplay! Yes, you heard it right, the third time, the third consecutive time!"

After Eastwood finished speaking, he raised his hands upward. This was a gesture signaling everyone to stand up, and then he raised his hands above his head and clapped.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

The guests clapped enthusiastically while standing up from their seats, looking in Cao Yang's direction.

Emma Stone covered her mouth in disbelief, looked at Cao Yang with a look of surprise, then said "Ah," hugged Cao Yang, and said in Cao Yang's ear:

"Congratulations, Mr. Director. This is an incredible thing. You are an incredible person. It's too shocking. I still can't believe it's true."

Then, as she let go of Cao Yang, she suddenly added softly, "I'll be eighteen in a few months. I'll call you then."

"Congratulations, you are a great director, and even more so a great screenwriter and novelist."

The director of "Zhu Nuo," Jason Reitman, also followed with compliments.

"Thank you."

Cao Yang said to Jason Reitman and got out of his seat.

Along the way, the guests stood and followed Cao Yang with their eyes, clapping for him.

Chen also stood up, looking at Cao Yang at this moment as if he were the center of everyone. He suddenly felt very gratified. The teacher really didn't misjudge the person; this little junior brother is indeed extraordinary!

"Thank you!"

Cao Yang walked onto the stage, first said thank you to Eastwood, and then took the trophy from his hand.

Eastwood hugged Cao Yang and said:

"You are an amazing genius. I bought all of your 'Cao Yang's Fantasy Journey,' many of which are very wonderful. If there is a chance, let's cooperate and create a film together."

"There will be a chance."

Cao Yang said to Eastwood.

He looked at the trophy and said to the microphone: "Thank you."

The applause that had just weakened rang out again.

"Thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association; you are a group of people with great courage. Thank you to all the staff of the 'Zhu Nuo' crew, thank you to director Jason Reitman, thank you to Emma Stone for her wonderful performance; you are all the best."

"In addition, thank you to my alma mater, Beijing Film Academy, thank you to my teacher, Mr. Situ; they taught me a lot. Finally, thank you to my parents, thank you."

Looking at Cao Yang walking down from the stage, Chen said to Chen Hong while clapping: "From now on, when mentioning the Golden Globe Awards, one can't get around little junior brother. Winning Best Screenplay for three consecutive years, I'm afraid it's unprecedented and will never happen again."

Chen Hong nodded and followed up: "Teacher Situ's eye is indeed good, first you and Old Tian, then Cao Yang."

Chen didn't even think about being humble and nodded naturally, "Teacher's eye is indeed good."

Stephen Chow looked at the high-spirited Cao Yang and was also full of emotion. Winning Best Screenplay for three consecutive years is simply something that one dare not think about, but it actually happened.

He could at most look forward to Best Foreign Language Film; there is no comparison, no comparability at all!

Stephen Chow suddenly felt a pity for Ang Lee. Originally, Ang Lee's "Brokeback Mountain" was the biggest hit tonight, receiving seven nominations.

It is a pity that even if Ang Lee won major awards like Best Picture and Best Director, tomorrow's front-page headline would still be the news of Cao Yang winning the Golden Globe for Best Screenplay for the third consecutive time.

What Stephen Chow could think of, Ang Lee could certainly think of too.

Moreover, Ang Lee thought more and further than Stephen Chow.

"Brokeback Mountain" is a project of Hollywood's Focus Features. When attacking the Oscars, they had already clearly told Ang Lee.

Because Cao Yang won the Oscar for Best Picture the year before last and the Oscar for Best Director last year, it is very difficult for the Oscars to give these two awards to a Chinese person again this year...

Therefore, the Golden Globes became Ang Lee's greatest consolation.

Focus Features is also working in this direction, focusing on operating the Golden Globes.

However, after Cao Yang won the Golden Globe for Best Screenplay for the third consecutive time, the Golden Globes tonight have actually ended. No matter who wins what award, it is not as topical as Cao Yang.

This is something that can definitely leave a heavy stroke on the Golden Globe Awards.

Sigh, I don't know what the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is thinking. Do they want to steal the limelight from the Oscars so much?

Ang Lee is depressed.

At the Venice Film Festival in September, "Brokeback Mountain" lost to the Chinese film "Black Swan" directed by Cao Yang. Tonight, even if he wins Best Picture and Best Director, in terms of heat and topic, he will definitely lose to Cao Yang again.

Zhang Ziyi stared at Cao Yang without blinking, watching everyone stand up for him, watching him go on stage, watching him give his acceptance speech, watching him go off stage...

She regretted it, extremely regretted it.

She felt that she had countless opportunities to "take down" Cao Yang, but unfortunately, she missed them for one reason or another.

So much so that now, f*** the five people of the four great Qingyi!

Isn't this mocking me?

If I had "taken down" Cao Yang earlier, these Best Actress awards would all be mine, mine!

All f***ing mine!

She calculated whether she still had any way to "take down" Cao Yang.

If she could win the Golden Globe Best Actress tonight, she would see if she could take the opportunity to "take down" Cao Yang again at the Golden Globe party held by NBC Universal Group.

If she couldn't win the Golden Globe Best Actress... impossible, absolutely impossible.

Zhang Ziyi herself couldn't imagine that if she missed the Golden Globe Best Actress again, the mockery in the country would be even crazier, right?

Damn it, just thinking about it makes me angry, the more I think about it, the angrier I get.

I haven't dropped my status, and my development in Hollywood is okay, and my status is on an upward trend. Why am I not worthy of being one of the four great Qingyi in the country?

Really f***ing strange!
