Chapter 215 Golden Globe Nominations
"Lie down obediently, and I'll bring you chicken soup." Aunt Karen learned that Ronald had a cold, so she came to his apartment and made him a family cold remedy, a pot of chicken soup.
"I've already drank coke and boiled ginger." Ronald lay on the bed and wiped his nose with a handkerchief.
I go to the wrestling hall twice a week to exercise with Douglas Jr. This body has not had a cold for a long time.But recently New York has a flu epidemic, maybe this time it's the flu.No wonder the symptoms are more serious.
"It's better to use chicken soup. This is what your mother taught me to make."
Ronald was silent, his mother died in a car accident, he had only seen the photos.
Aunt Karen thought he was missing his mother again, so she brought him a bowl of boiled chicken soup, put it on the bedside, touched his face, "Drink him obediently, there is still half a pot of chicken soup in the kitchen , I made you two sandwiches, you eat them with chicken soup, and I have to go to Donna's teacher-parent meeting."
"I see, you go, aunt, don't infect you."
Seeing Ronald obediently finished his chicken soup and took a few mouthfuls of sandwiches, his aunt picked up the bag and walked towards the door, "I'll cook for you again tonight."
The sound of closing the door came, and Ronald remembered the movie clip in his dream again.
This dream contains a lot of information, or for Ronald who wants to be a director, it contains a lot of information that was overlooked in previous dreams.
The opening subtitle of the 15th anniversary edition shows that "fast-paced Richmond High" is a movie that people will still watch after many years.Ronald didn't know what kind of movies would be able to enjoy the commemorative edition treatment in the future video tape market, but the commercial society must make money to make them.
The box office of the original film should not be too bad when it is released in theaters.
In the movie, only Spiccoli is the actor Sean Penn he has seen, and the actor of the heroine Stacy seems familiar, but the only shot is the distant view of the swimming pool, and Stacy only has a short profile, Ronald couldn't see clearly.
The other actors, including the beautiful Linda, had never been seen before.Such a movie without any stars seems to be a small production?
Counting back from the 15th anniversary, it was released in 1982, so according to Hollywood's rhythm, it will be shot next year.
Thinking of this, Ronald picked up the phone and called his agent, Nisita.Since it is a small production, it will definitely become popular. I have to fight for the opportunity. In any case, I must participate in the filming and post-editing of the film from beginning to end, so that the next film will have qualifications and can strive to attract investment as a director. .
"Has the director of David Lynch been negotiated? What position can I get if I participate in the production?" Ronald was waiting for the secretary to transfer, thinking about the question he was going to ask the agent.
"Have you heard, Ronald?" Nisita answered Ronald's phone call from the secretary, "You are very well informed, and I am about to call to tell you."
"what?"
"You've been nominated for a Golden Globe, Ronald, congratulations."
"Huh?" Ronald felt his nose gasp in surprise, "Best screenplay? Do I have a chance to win?"
"No, it's the best original song." Nisita corrected, "You're not a star, and whether you can win the award depends on whether Dolly Parton has time to appear at the awards show.
"What do you mean?" Ronald didn't quite understand.
"The Golden Globe Awards are usually given to the stars who attend the awards show. If they go, they basically win the award. Dolly Parton is the biggest star among the nominees for the best original song. If she doesn't go, you will have a chance."
"I'd ask David da Silva, the world-renowned producer, who is jumping up and down in Hollywood promoting Erin Cara, and he wouldn't pass up the chance at the Golden Globes. And don't forget Prepare a dinner dress, the nominees need it for the dinner, make it yourself, or rent one in Hollywood."
"I'll make one, and I'll use it later," Ronald thought.
"My first draft of the script has been written, and I will send it to you."
"Very good. David Lynch has been nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Director. Tom Mount, the president of Universal Pictures, admires him very much. He can be contacted when the first draft of the script arrives. At the awards dinner in January next year, he said Maybe you can still find a chance to discuss the new film.”
"Then when can I officially sign a contract with Universal, I want to follow up the filming and post-editing of the film from beginning to end."
"At least wait for the director to be confirmed. Don't be nervous Ronald, this is not a director and a screenwriter. Only one person can be a crew. All we ask for is a chance to observe. Studying for a big production in a studio, and being an apprentice to a director.
All we were looking for was an informal learning opportunity.There's nothing to be nervous about, that's how a lot of celebrity kids get into the industry.I can assure you that after the director is confirmed and the project is officially approved, you can join the group to study at any time. "Nisita made it easy for Ronald, this position is easy to arrange.
After receiving the unexpected good news and the promise to study, Ronald felt refreshed and his body felt much better.
After several days of recuperation, Ronald recovered from the flu, and it was almost Christmas time.Aunt began to prepare for Christmas.
Ronald was called in to prepare the Christmas tree, and happened to make an appointment with Lawrence, the accountant, to check the accounts.
"You were nominated for the Golden Globes? Congratulations." While drinking coffee, Lawrence and Ronald used the receipts to check the expenses. "To be honest, I didn't expect you to go to the Golden Globes so soon. Maybe it won't be long. , I’ll have an Oscar winner as a client.”
"I would like to borrow your good words, but there is still a big gap between the Golden Globe Awards and the Oscars. He was selected by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, and there are only less than 90 judges in total. The Oscars have thousands of judges voting, and the degree of authority is higher. Much more." Ronald showed off in front of the accountant what he had learned from the broker.
"I'll watch TV then, will the Golden Globes be televised?" Lawrence asked.The awards show of the film and television industry, full of stars, is very attractive to him.
"Yes, NBC will broadcast the Golden Globe Awards dinner, and I have to prepare a dress to receive the award. Custom tailoring is too expensive. I plan to rent one temporarily at a rental store in Hollywood."
"You can try the tailors in Chinatown. There are many red gang tailors there. They have been making formal suits for two generations, and the price is not expensive. I am made by them. If you like, I can send my tailor Let me introduce you." Lawrence stood up and took a few steps, and deliberately stretched out his hand to make some movements.
Ronald took a look at Lawrence's coat, and it really looked good.No matter how he moves, the clothes stick to his body snugly.
"Not bad, remember to introduce it to me."
"Why don't we go later? It takes a long time to make a formal suit, so it's better if you go earlier."
"Don't forget to buy a Christmas tree." Aunt Karen told Ronald when she heard that Ronald was going out.
"I won't forget." Ronald opened the newspaper on the table and read it, waiting for Lawrence to check his receipts one by one.
"Brookie Shields and Leif Garrett at Warlam Ice Rink in Central Park."
"Why is there no picture for this entertainment news?" Ronald was a little surprised. With Terry as a person, she would not forget to bring a photographer.
"Woram Ice Rink is going to be closed for renovation. It is said that the refrigeration system is aging and has caused many potholes on the ice. It is temporarily closed for safety reasons. The mayor of New York said that it will allocate funds for renovation and open next winter." Lawrence said.
Ronald understood. It seems that the two of them went to the skating rink just when it was closed for safety reasons, so they didn't get any pictures of skating together. "Unfortunately, I planned to take Donna to have fun."
"Yeah, there is only one large open-air skating rink in New York, and the small skating rink in Rockefeller Center only receives 150 people a day. We can't make an appointment at all."
……
"Mr. Li's figure is really amazing, just like a clothes rack." Lawrence recommended the Hong Gang tailor, an old man wearing old-fashioned glasses, with a soft ruler wrapped around his neck, and asked his apprentice to give Ronald Measure the size.
"The time for the dress is too tight. Fortunately, Mr. Li's figure is standard. We can modify this one in time for the Golden Globe Awards. The two suits need to be modified slowly. I will notify you to come and sample."
After contacting the tailor, Ronald felt that his craftsmanship and conversation were good, and the price was cheap, so he simply ordered two more suits.
Then Ronald drove to the Christmas market, picked out a small Christmas tree that looked good, put it on the roof of the car like everyone else, and drove home.
"You think of a way, Ronnie." At night, Donna looked at the small Christmas tree that Ronald bought in the living room, and when she heard that she couldn't go to the Wallam skating rink, she didn't let her go. "Diane will also come from Canada soon. Come back, we agreed to go together."
"Okay, then I'll ask Eddie, the agent, to find a way to book a few Rockefeller tickets. Diane's movie is over? When will she come back?"
"She called back and said she met her mother in Canada. Burt and her mother had a big fight, and Diane was very unhappy, so I asked her out to skate together."
