There is also Alfred Hitchcock, a director from country Y on the other side of the ocean, who filmed the first sound film "Blackmail" in country Y last year, which was widely praised in Europe and the United States.

Mike Senate, who trained the famous comedian Chaplin, is known as the father of comedy by many filmmakers.

Fachot Edot, a famous director in country F, has successfully brought the transparency effect he invented to the screen, making the film look more realistic.

The great director David Griffith, this and Douglas and his wife, Mary Beck, known as America's sweetheart baby, are known as the Golden Triangle of Hollywood.

Of course, he is also one of the four founders of Luen Mei, and until today Li Zitao did not know that Luen Mei was founded by Douglas Van Punk, Mary Bickford, David Griffith, and the comedy master Chaplin.

In terms of actors, it is natural to be led by the uncrowned king Douglas Van Punk, the president of the Oscar jury and now in Hollywood.

The master of comedy, Chaplin, needs no introduction, just listen to the cheers that tear down the ceiling, it is enough to know his influence in this era.

Buster Keaton, a comedian who can compete with Chaplin.

Fred Astaire, known as the king of Hollywood dance.

The Max Brothers, also known as the Anarchist Four, were also a theatrical group of the silent film era.

Comedian Harold Lloyd, whose films are very popular in the Chinese market.

Henry Fonda, known as a Hollywood legend, has received countless cheers and screams for his unique style.

Rudolph Valentino and John Gilbert, the two big screen lovers who swept the world in the silent film era, are the perfect man in the heart of every noblewoman.

In this era when sound films were just developing, those who could be called superstars were all people who came from the silent film era, and most of them were comic actors.

"This guy is too demonic. Putting away the smiling face that was about to stiffen, Li Zitao looked at Ai Mo beside him and asked, "How long will it take?"

"Charlie, you have to be patient, everyone who walks in front of you now represents a box office guarantee of millions of dollars. Douglas smiled and quietly tilted his head.

"I think you're right, Douglas, introduce me to the lady who is coming now. Looking at the woman who was coming, Li Zitao's eyes lit up.

"Anne Shirley, who often plays supporting roles, is very difficult to get roles in Hollywood without resources, you know. Douglas said and took a step forward and warmly opened his hug to Anne who came over: "Anne, I'm so happy to see you." ”

"Mr. Van Punk, I am equally pleased. Douglas's attitude flattered Cherny, who was well aware that she was a minor character.

But she soon understood why she was so popular with Douglas.

"Let me introduce you to the initiator of the Academy Awards, a famous wealthy Chinese businessman, Charlie Lee. Douglas leaned sideways to give way to Li Zitao.

"Hello, Miss Anne, you are beautiful tonight. Li Zitao did not hide the heat in his eyes at all, and his purpose was obvious.

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Lee. Anne's mind raced, and at the moment when their hands parted, she said, "Maybe after the awards, I can invite you to a drink." ”

"Turning down an invitation from a beautiful woman is not what a gentleman should do. Li Zitao agreed neatly.

Douglas laughed on the side and said nothing, but Aimo, who was standing behind him, was speechless, "The purpose of the boss in Hollywood, isn't that?"

"Charlie, long time no see. Walter walked briskly from the red carpet.

"Walt, my friend. Li Zitao didn't have a little arrogance, and took the initiative to greet him.

Who is this? This is Walt Disney, a true giant, a genius who single-handedly created the kingdom of animation, and a cash cow for his future.

"Haha, you look so handsome tonight. Walter patted him on the shoulder.

"You too, Walt. Li Zitao said with a smile.

"I'll go in first, you'll be in Hollywood for two more days, right?" said Walter had some questions he wanted to talk to.

"Of course, we'll have time to talk individually. Li Zitao nodded.

Looking at Walt's back as he left, Li Zitao seemed to see a glittering mountain of gold, "I can't wait to see that Disney, maybe I should push him." ”

"Charlie, I'm here to introduce you to a new friend. Douglas's voice hooked back Li Zitao's 'lost' soul.

When he looked back and saw the woman standing next to Douglas, the whole world lost color for a moment, and only the quiet woman remained in his eyes.

Li Zitao has never seen such a beautiful woman, even in the era of information explosion and makeup in his previous life.

Her beauty is natural, like a gift from heaven, her eyebrows stand proudly, her slender curved eyebrows are like the moon, and her eyebrows are frivolous and charming.

Garbo nodded faintly in thanks, and with a light touch of her fingers, she quickly retracted, if it wasn't for Douglas's invitation, she wouldn't have come to this ceremony.

"Hey, man, are you also fascinated by her?" Douglas pushed Li Zitao's shoulder hard, finally waking up the goose.

"Who is she?" asked Li Zitao with an unabashed nod.

"Greta Garbo, a silent film became the new favorite of the United States, and if it weren't for the marriage, I would definitely pursue her. ”

Hearing Douglas's joking words, Li Zitao straightened his collar and said with a resolute gaze: "You don't have a chance, because she is mine." ”

"You're shameless!" Douglas pointed at him with a wry smile.

"Shamelessness is my motto, thank you for the compliment. Li Zitao bowed and thanked him funny, and the atmosphere returned to its previous lightness.

The shock just now has not been eliminated in his heart, but has become more intense, but Li Zitao knows very well that the impression he left on Greta is not good.

"Aimo, I want all her information. Taking advantage of his free time, Li Zitao gave Aimo a new task.

Hearing this, Aimo really wanted to smash the bag in his face in his hand, the damn bastard, "I'm a lawyer, not a pimp or a paparazzi." ”

Although he hated it to death, Aimo still kept this matter in his heart, who made him his boss!

is thinking about the pursuit plan in his heart, and another stunning beauty stands in front of him, Jane Harlou, a young actor who is not famous.

I have to say that there is never a shortage of beauties in the entertainment industry, even in the first year of Hollywood, there are already groups of beautifully dressed women.

"Why can't I do the doppelganger technique!" Li Zitao thought with regret.

"Alright, it's time for us to go in, you're one of the protagonists tonight. At 7:45 p.m., Douglas invited Li Zitao to go backstage with him.

"You're the most shining star tonight, and don't forget that you're also working part-time as a host. "Pickling girls is returning to pickling girls, Li Zitao will not forget the business.

If you want to have more influence in Hollywood, of course, there is more than just awards, but if you want to dominate the film industry in the future, the Oscars must not be missing.

The ability of the Academy in the past life is obvious to all, no one can deny its existence, and being able to appear on the Oscars, even if it is only a nomination, is enough to make an actor famous overnight.

"Mr. Douglas, the stage is ready, it's time for you to play. The staff trotted over, and the whole backstage was like a clockwork, and they trotted up unconsciously when they walked, only Li Zitao looked absent-minded.

"Hey man, listen to your name. Douglas patted him and walked to the stage with the microphone after the assistant made sure he was dressed correctly.

"This is from the Hollywood Oscar Star Theater, the first Academy Awards, we are here to commend the most prominent in the film industry, all the nominated and winning works, are from the Oscar jury council, a total of 1146 jury members voted together, the following is invited Douglas ~~ Van Punk. ”

In the voiceover, Douglas, dressed in a bright suit, takes the stage and drowns out the awards with loud cheers and applause.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much. "With experience hosting the Academy Awards, the support of a professional team and an early rehearsal rehearsal, Douglas has performed with ease.

"I am honored to be here tonight for the first edition of the Oscars at the Star Theatre to remember the outstanding contribution that every filmmaker has made to this great industry.

In order to let you know more about the Oscar jury, I think I need to delay you for a few minutes to make a short introduction. ”

Douglas opened the paper in his hand, and applause erupted from below the stage.

"The jury is a jury composed of directors and actors, editors, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, the Starlight Foundation, workers' associations across the country, women's guilds, independent producers, distributors, and independent film critics.

And after the nomination is over, the Council will randomly select 360 senior viewers from the audience who watched the film in the previous year to join the jury and serve as interim jury members.

The jury has only one purpose, and that is to ensure that all award-winning films are impartial, open and fair. ”

Whoa—

Fierce applause rang out, and whenever Douglas called names, 1~2 delegates would stand up and salute their surroundings to show their presence.

Justice, openness, fairness, what a perfect propaganda concept, everyone's heart is excited, for the chaotic Hollywood, such an environment is too needed.

Of course, the jury members from the big companies will not be here alone, they will join the jury as members of the actors, directors, and editors' guilds.
