super actress

As soon as Rhea walked through her red carpet time, someone came to help lift her skirt and walk down with her. She didn't dress up too grandly, lest she won't win the award and have a happy time.

But when Malloy shot her with his eyes, Rhea quickly assured: "Don't worry, I've memorized the speech."

Their plan is to try their best to fight for it. If they miss the award, they will show their face in the UK anyway, which is not a loss.And Rhea did take advantage.

When Rhea was nominated for Best Actress at the British Academy Film Awards, Hollywood was like a chicken blood. Although the trend of the American media is that she has little chance of winning the award, from "Hollywood Report" to "Entertainment Weekly", almost All the Hollywood media covered it.

They feel that BAFTA, which has always entertained itself, has finally kept up with the pace of the times, instead of picking the tallest among the short Europeans headed by the United Kingdom.When Rhea is on the same list as those British actresses, Hollywood will definitely go to her first.

Although the awards in the United Kingdom and the United States are not in circulation, and the British Oscars are also the British Oscars, this does not prevent Hollywood from touting Rhea's nomination this time.

Some Hollywood tabloids even described her as a once-in-a-century acting genius for the sake of gimmicks. This is too exaggerated. Rhea thought it was funny when she saw it, just like other actresses can't act at all.

For a while, the ratings of "Romeo and Juliet" have increased a lot.

Not to mention Rhea herself, she is the direct beneficiary. With this incident, she has received interview invitations from some magazines. Regardless of whether she can win the award or not, the Hollywood media are holding back their praises.

But it seems that the performance of the British media is also very positive, which gives Rhea a certain illusion.

She read a hint from the enthusiasm of the British press: "Is it really possible for us to win this award?"

"Not necessarily, don't think too much about these bitches, the British journalists will only treat you harsher." Malloy's attitude is more conservative this time, he has benefited from Rhea's experience, but this benefit How far it can be maximized is still open to question.

"If you get the prize, you'll be the darling of Hollywood again." When he's back to normal, there's nothing wrong with it, "But if you don't get it, these british journalists will relegate you to hell gone."

Malloy's tone was subtle: "You don't know, in order to trick us into coming to the award ceremony, those British people with weird accents can say

I can't bear to put honey on it - but when I actually went to deal with the judges, they put on a disgusting reserved look. "

He looked sullen, wandering between self-confidence and hesitation, and he was not completely sure of the result.

If there was no previous ambiguous contact, Malloy could still be firmer, but he saw a little hope in it, but it was not clear, so he could only hold a skeptical attitude, and could not give Rhea a definite answer.

It is not certain whether she was brought here to give her an award or whether she was asked to come here to watch other British actresses receive awards.

In any case, the British media can make up flowers.

If she won the award, it means there is a shady scene. If she didn't win the award, it means that Britain defeated the United States-this is very possible.

These words made Rhea wake up from the short-term fever. She was really a little bewitched by Mycroft Holmes. What he said was too suggestive, and Rhea's psychological expectations were suddenly raised. .

But it is undoubtedly more reasonable for Malloy to explain the attitude of the British media in this way.

Maybe they were just waiting so eagerly to see her frustrated face at losing the Best Actress award that they would have liked to have it zoomed in and zoomed in for the front page.

Thinking of this, Rhea felt chills, "You reminded me, I will pay attention to my facial expressions."

No matter how delicate a female star is, she can't guarantee that the snapped photos will look good. After infinitely zooming in, it will only highlight every flaw. Rhea is particularly afraid of this.

No matter what, she couldn't let herself look too bad.

They don't have many contacts in the British media. If the "Sun" did show her an ugly photo, the price of public relations would be even greater.

Malloy was just struggling, but he wasn't very worried: "Anyway, we've made two-handed preparations, so don't put too much pressure on it."

He doesn't have much say in the UK, but he still knows a lot of media people in Hollywood, and a proper exchange of interests can maintain media relations. In any case, Rhea is considered a "glory", and Hollywood will never step on its own facade.

"Can we really not take advantage of the Prince William incident?"

Seeing Rhea's eyes, Malloy quickly relented: "Okay, I was just joking, I know it's not our turn to think about it."

He knows the difference.

In the end, Rhea told her agent about the incident, so that they could prepare in advance in case something happened in the future.

when making this decision

, Rhea already figured it out, what will definitely happen in the future.She couldn't take chances, it turned out that wasn't going to work.

"Are you sure no one knows? Why do I vaguely feel that they all know." Malloy muttered there, there was something he couldn't figure out.

There are even more things Rhea can't figure out. She still has to worry about her manager now. If she wasn't worried about being exposed, she would want to draw a tube of Malloy's blood for research.

Whether it is a mutation problem or not, there is definitely something strange about his physical condition.

But she was really worried that he would be kidnapped by Hank Pym, who also owns a biochemical technology company, and Rhea had to be careful, so she replied indiscriminately: "Don't say something stupid, if it's what you said It won’t be the way it is now.”

If it is true according to that statement, she should be confessed by them as a god.

What about Buckingham Palace, what about Downing Street, Rhea just wanted to roll her eyes, it is definitely not a good thing to be remembered by these forces.

Malloy defended himself: "Someone really told me that, now it's only limited to a small circle, and other people only know that your movie is extremely popular."

In terms of inquiring about news, Rhea has always admired her manager: "Then you really have great powers."

"Don't flatter me, it's useless. I still remember when you went on a date. Can't you be more obedient for the sake of my mental illness? You clearly know that I get angry more frequently!"

Since Rhea knew about this, Malloy had no scruples, and he could even use this to threaten her in turn.

That's really dodgy!

And when Rhea sat down in the seat, Rhea felt that BAFTA's intentions were not pure, and she was placed next to Kate Winslet.

There's no way they didn't know that they had previously competed together for the lead actress in Titanic, with Rhea snatching the role of Ruth from Kate at the last minute.

No matter what they thought in their hearts, they still greeted each other friendly on the surface.

Because she played the heroine of Cameron, Rhea dyed a head of bright red hair, and Kate has blond hair that has been curled. Black is used to brighten the skin texture, and Caucasian skin can easily appear pale.

That's why wheat skin is so popular in Hollywood. For a while, when her Lolita style was popular, Rhea's costume stylist suggested that she also dye it.

Honey-colored skin.

Kate showed her a friendly smile. Kate painted classic red lips, so she showed a kind of stunner temperament when she smiled: "I have always wanted to know you, Rhea, and I didn't expect to meet you here."

Rhea is a little envious. Her image is limited, so she often plays the safe card when styling.

She smiled back, "Me too, who would have thought that? This is my first time attending a British awards ceremony, I'm a little nervous, I just saw Juliette Binoche!" She used to like the British actress film.

In fact, Rhea and Kate met at last year's Oscars, but they didn't say hello, but the occasion is different now, and they need to deal with each other.

"You are Juliet today." Kate answered quickly, her British accent was nice, not particularly obvious, "Don't be nervous, you look fine."

This natural friendly attitude made Rhea feel a little tangled sense of guilt. She took away an extremely important opportunity from Kate, but even if she did it all over again, Rhea would still do it. She couldn't miss "" The Titanic opportunity.

She's the winner with a head start, so in front of Kate, Rhea has a sense of guilt that it's not entirely fair that she won.

But as the conversation continued, Rhea discovered a subtle phenomenon.

Maybe she's thinking too much, maybe she's inflating herself—wait a minute, is Kate Winslet taking the initiative to deal with her, to talk to her?

"Rhea! So you are here." Baz Luhrmann, the director of "Romeo and Juliet", came over from his seat, and his expression was full of the clarity and joy of a successful man, " I have been looking for you for a long time."

Obviously, the double harvest of box office and word-of-mouth has given him great affirmation. Although the British and American reviews are a bit polarized, it does not affect the success of the film.

Rhea stood up and hugged Luhrmann. His attitude was very enthusiastic. Luhrmann is an Australian director. He has his own production studio and a team of directors. He has more contacts in the UK than Rhea. , but in comparison, of course he prefers Rhea, an American actor who has worked with him.

During the interval of embracing, Luhrmann revealed a little nervousness. He lowered his voice and asked Rhea for news: "Do you think we have any hope of winning the prize?"

Best Actress and Best Director are definitely more important awards, and the chances of winning awards are lower, not to mention that there are many excellent films in the UK participating in the competition this year.

This

Lower Rhea felt even weirder: "I don't know, how could I know."

The film got a lot of nominations in the UK, and Rhea had nothing to do with those, she and Malloy didn't have the power to run the whole film, and she didn't invest in it and wasn't the producer of the film.

Luhrmann might as well ask Gabriel Martini, the film's co-producer.

After hearing what Rhea said, her director looked at her with an inscrutable expression, and then Luhrmann nodded, "I understand what you mean."

--What's the meaning?

She really didn't mean anything!

Feeling baffled and uneasy at the same time, Rhea was disturbed by this strange state of enthusiasm.

When she came, she had planned the result in advance. Whether she won the prize or not, Rhea was mentally prepared, and now it was completely unexpected.

It's that her competitors are all acting tender and close, "The English Patient" heroine Kristin Scott Thomas all said hello to Rhea, Emre Watson, Brenda Bryce , Rhea felt cordial for the first time in England.

The situation she encountered in this country before was not very good. It seemed that every British person looked at people with their nostrils at the beginning, which inevitably cast a shadow on Rhea.

But now the people Rhea sees are very friendly, and they don't take her seriously just because she is a too young American actress.

It might sound funny to say that, but when Rhea does talk to Juliette Binoche, she does get a little subtly agitated.

Although she has no particular object of admiration, this does not prevent Rhea from having actors she admires. She could only see Juliette Binoche in the video before.

The other party seems to have really watched the movie played by Rhea, "I think it is very contagious when you commit suicide at the end. The American media underestimated your performance."

"You deserve a nomination like that."

Binoche's words were a bit demeaning to Hollywood, and Rhea didn't dare to answer, so she just smiled and covered it up, but fortunately, the other party didn't continue talking.

Now Rhea couldn't lie to herself anymore, and she knew that there was definitely something going on in it.

After a long wait, Rhea finally waited until the awards were announced.The award presenter read the names of the candidates one by one, and it seemed a little strange that her name was in the middle.

The other actresses have very British names, of course

Well, they are all British, only Rhea, an American, is mixed in.

"She's young but passionate, she's beautiful and talented, so she's able to create a classic new, unforgettable Juliet."

She felt very bewildered, and when she realized that she had a ridiculous idea of ​​not wanting to win an award, Rhea wanted to wake herself up.

In any case, it is a fool not to take advantage of the advantages!

"And our best actress is—our Juliet, Rhea Noren!"

The word "we" is very subtle, but in front of the Juliet created by Shakespeare, it is not surprising that the British say so. It seems that they are not so happy to give her this award. Rhea was thinking wildly at this moment.

"Oh my God."

It wasn't just Rhea herself who was so amazed, I don't know how many people sighed like this at this moment, she actually won the prize!

When she really heard her name, Rhea still felt terrified.She was both surprised and terrified, and that mix of joy and fear was a bit scary indeed.

No matter what she thinks, the Hollywood media who followed Rhea to the UK to track and report about one or two interviews with Rhea's team have already called and sent emails to their editor-in-chief immediately.

"Fuck, Jimmy, she really won an award!"

When the call was transferred from the secretary, James Anlia was still in the office checking the edited samples of the new issue of "Entertainment Weekly". Published and sold everywhere.

He intends to put Rhea's interview in the next issue, and she will have a cover and an interview page.

"Entertainment Weekly" has been cooperating well with Rhea Noren's team. So far, their cooperation has been a win-win situation, so Anlia also decided to support her trip to the UK. explain.

When it comes to Americans, the British Academy will only be more difficult to deal with than the Oscars, and regional discrimination is not a Hollywood patent.

So at first, Anlia felt that he had misheard, or that the reporter he sent over had gone crazy in England, and he even asked a particularly stupid question: "What award?"

Before the other party had time to answer, he immediately grabbed the conversation: "The best actress in BAFTA? Rhea Noren really won the British Best Actress Award?"

After asking questions one after another, he breathed heavily: "Exclusive interview! You go right away—no, don't worry about the interview

Things, what a waste of time, immediately!Write a report, right now, I want photos and reports!Fax, email, I don't care what method you use, just send it to me now, you know? "

"I know, I know!" The voice of the person on the phone was unsteady, he was not much better than Anlia, "Damn it, I still have to compete with this group of British reporters, wait for me for 10 minutes, no, 10 minutes !"

When Anlia hung up the phone, the editor who was waiting in his office asked cautiously, "Then shall we send it to be printed?"

"No!" Anlia decisively closed the new magazine that had been prepared for a long time, and he immediately issued an order to the other party, "Tell them to add Rhea Noren's page here as soon as possible! "

The other party had expected it when he was listening to the phone, and there was surprise on his face, and then excitement, because Hollywood was not optimistic, and this big news basically belonged to them!

The other party quickly left Anlia's office with magazine samples, and when there was only one person left, the editor-in-chief of "Entertainment Weekly" murmured in the office: "Who dares to stand in front of Rhea Nolan again?" Add the adjective 'unfortunate' and it's insane!"

She is not the once-in-a-century acting genius in Hollywood, she is clearly the once-in-a-century lucky one!

And Lucky is giving a thank you speech.

Emotionally memorizing the well-prepared speech, Rhea confirmed that she was not at all blunt, and she even showed a natural grateful smile, neither too exaggerated nor too cold.

Although she vaguely guessed a little bit, Rhea still felt that it was a little subtle that she actually won the award.

When she walked down with the trophy, countless congratulatory voices overwhelmed her. Rhea couldn't tell which voice belonged to which person, she only knew that she heard overlapping British accents.

"Congratulations, Rhea!"

Her director, Baz Luhrmann, stood up and stopped her halfway to give her a hug, and Anthony Minghella, the director of "The English Patient," whom she didn't know, shook her hand.

When she really won the award, not only the actors cast their kind blessing eyes, but also the British director and producer also hoped to get to know her.

"Thank you, thank you!" Rhea couldn't remember how many times she said thank you, completely confused by the mysterious atmosphere in Britain.

This time the meaning of the pie in the sky is obviously more obvious, Rhea feels a little

Dizzy, but they did make an effort, it wasn't pure luck.

——Can she attribute this to shit luck?

Obviously not.

When she got backstage, she was dragged by Malloy in front of the media interview area. Her manager was not excited, but had the same strange expression as Rhea.

He's wary of free lunches: "Now do you see what I mean?"

"Damn it, I understand, I understand." Rhea was even more terrified than him, "I feel like I'm really being regarded as a god."

This description is an exaggeration, but Rhea does feel this way, she feels that she has been treated with extra grandeur.

"No, you're just being treated like an English princess."

Malloy's words gave Rhea goosebumps, because princess and princess are the same word in English, and she really didn't like the joke.

She stared at him in horror: "Please, don't make this joke with me, it's not funny at all, I'm pretty sure I'm American."

"That's not necessarily true." Malloy muttered, he had privately found Rhea's biological father, "You look quite European."

Rhea glared at her agent. "Do you think it's even possible? If the British government were to publicize the award for me—"

This made Rhea herself feel sick, and she had to stop before she finished speaking.

The man took a deep breath, "What the hell, we got it anyway, so can they still ask for it back?"

If you must think so, then this award is indeed very likely to be hers.

For better or for worse, she did "know" some people in the UK, and they were upper class, and that background, combined with their PR operation, gave Rhea an unexpected advantage.

What's more, she really has a title.

A British actor with a title has to win several awards, so an American actor with a title should win one.Otherwise, wouldn't this medal be given too cheaply.

Just as Rhea was worrying about the price she would have to pay, Malloy said, "You know what I'm thinking?"

When she looked doubtful, her manager laughed out loud: "Anyway, I know, your salary can go up again."

Then his eyes slowly became firm and determined.

"I only agree with the British, to hell with Hollywood film critics, your Juliet is really good!"

Malloy thinks her movies deserve full marks.

This sentence is funny

Laughing Rhea, this is really too weird, obviously she is in trouble, and she will capsize in the gutter if she is not careful, but she still enjoys the benefits from the trouble.

Mycroft Holmes used her as a bargaining chip against Andre Vetter, and she was still unable to get rid of Andre Vetter, and her agent, Matthew Malloy, was likely to be a mutant who threatened her .

She couldn't guarantee that Malloy was absolutely safe, but he wasn't just a manager to her.

Opportunity and crisis hit Rhea's head together. Since she couldn't refuse, she could only find a way to use it.

Rhea didn't know exactly which version of the British legend was, but she could imagine that she even suspected that someone was behind the scenes to promote these rumors.

Anyway, the version she heard was too exaggerated-it is said that Rhea Noren has big fans in the political world.

This is so hilarious, would anyone really believe it?

Saying that Prince William is her fan, Rhea's acceptance will be even higher.

By the way, it is rumored that she does know someone from the British royal family.

Is there any mistake that she used this method to conquer England on the far side first?

The author has something to say:
