Chapter 224 Experience the Feeling of a Hollywood Emperor(2/3)
Seeing these two hosts, Annie was a little excited.
Because that man's name is Billy Crystal, and he is a host who has hosted nine Oscar awards shows.
The Oscar Awards party at the end of March this year was hosted by Billy Crystal.
The female host next to her is named Ellen DeGeneres. She is still relatively young and not as famous as Billy Crystal.
But Ellen DeGeneres is also a rising star in the American hosting world, and many people are calling for her to maybe host an Oscars show.
This time Disney asked these two people to serve as hosts, which is enough to prove that Disney attaches great importance to it.
"Hi~"
From afar, Billy Crystal greeted Abel and Annie.
"Mr. Smith, Miss Hathaway, good evening!"
Ellen DeGeneres also smiled and said hello.
Anne responded immediately, while Abel smiled and nodded lightly.
Both hosts looked a little bit insincere.
The main reason is that Abel's halo is too scary, and his face remains expressionless at this time.
Therefore, the interviews between the two of them mainly focused on Anne.
The two asked Anne many questions.
But in fact, Anne has already answered the standard answers to these questions.
She answered naturally and without missing a beat.
At this time, it was impossible for the two hosts to be stupid enough to embarrass her.
In the end, Annie's answer was almost complete, and Billy Crystal had no choice but to bite the bullet and put the question on Abel.
"Mr. Smith! Why did you attend the premiere of "The Princess Diaries"?"
"Because I am one of the investors. Naturally, I hope that the box office of this movie will be good, so that my investment can be recovered."
"Oh~ What is your relationship with Miss Hathaway?"
"We're friends. Good friends we met in New York."
"Oh, Mr. Smith, I have no problem then."
Billy Crystal is gone.
Faced with such a giant.
Even a brave host like him didn't dare to ask random questions.
The two questions just now were checked in advance before Billy Crystal dared to ask them.
Didn’t you see Ellen DeGeneres next to you, smiling and saying nothing from the beginning to the end?
You must know that this is a big boss who even giants like Sony Columbia have to obediently send back the little spiders they eat.
Even Hollywood giants can't afford to offend.
Hosts like them are fine when facing ordinary celebrities.
Facing such a giant, they are basically the same as ordinary people.
The smarter and more rational people are, the more they know this.
And intelligence and rationality have always been necessary conditions for a host.
"Are there no other questions?" Abel said softly:
"Then let's go in first."
Billy Crystal thought to himself, I would like to ask a question, but do I dare?
He looked at Ellen DeGeneres.
The latter immediately averted his eyes - if you have any questions, ask them yourself.
"No problem, Mr. Smith." Billy Crystal could only smile.
Abel then joined hands with Annie and entered the Huaxia Theater.
The interior of the Huaxia Theater is a typical Western-style stepped layout, with the theater stage at the bottom.
What makes this theater different from other American theaters is that the interior and exterior of this theater are full of strong Chinese style.
The huge auditorium has 2,200 red seats.
The red carpet on the floor is cleaned extremely neatly every day.
Directly above the auditorium, there is a spectacular chandelier hanging in the middle of the theater, forming a huge and gorgeous starburst.
It is surrounded by a ring composed of dragon-shaped patterns. Relatively small, but full of oriental flavor wall lamps are embedded in the middle of intricately carved stone pillars and are responsible for illuminating the sides of the auditorium.
At the top is a corridor that connects all seating areas.
When Abel and others came in, there were already many people sitting inside.
But it was not full, and the people sitting inside were mainly celebrities and Hollywood executives.
Later, before the premiere officially begins.
Media will also be arranged to enter the venue, as well as some lucky spectators.
The premiere will officially begin after everyone has arrived.
The hosts are also Billy Crystal and Ellen DeGeneres.
Therefore, when Abel and Anne walked in, there were only 200 people in the 2,200 seats.
They are all industry insiders.
But it seems like everyone in these industry insiders is paying attention to the entrance.
When Abel and Anne appeared in it.
The big-name Hollywood stars in the theater, as well as executives from Disney and MGM, all stood up and looked at them.
I don’t know who applauded first, but nearly two hundred people in the theater began to applaud to welcome Abel and Anne.
Annie looked at the very familiar superstars who she had seen countless times in many movies and on many entertainment news.
At this moment, I am smiling, applauding and looking this way.
Anne's feelings at this moment cannot be described in words.
At this moment, Anne felt as if she had become the queen of Hollywood.
And next to her, of course, is the unique Hollywood Emperor.
Fortunately for Abel, he didn't have any grand feeling. Instead, he felt like a Hollywood superstar.
In the face of wealth and power, they and they are actually no different from the actors in ancient China.
Abel was complaining in his mind that he just likes to do these exaggerated things for entertainment.
While holding Anne's hand, he wanted to find his own seat.
There is no need for him to look for them one by one.
Robert Egger had already left his seat and walked towards Abel and Annie.
"BOSS." Robert Egger smiled broadly: "This way. Your seat is over here."
When Abel reached the edge of his seat.
Michael Eisner next to him smiled, stretched out his hand and said to Abel:
"Hello, Mr. Smith. I'm Michael Eisner."
Abel smiled and shook hands with him: "Hello, I am Mr. Abel Smith Eisner."
From beginning to end, Abel almost only shook hands with Michael Eisner.
Then the two of them sat down.
Next to Anne is Robert Egger, and next to Abel is Michael Eisner.
The normal process of the premiere show continues.
Next it was the turn of the media to enter, with hundreds of reporters and film critics entering the venue.
Michael Eisner took the initiative and started talking to Abel.
It was Abel's talking style that made Michael Eisner, who had always been unique in Hollywood, a little uncomfortable.
Because Abel said to Michael Eisner right at the beginning:
"Mr. Eisner, actually I have thought about acquiring Disney."
His opening remarks made Michael Eisner, the CEO and chairman of Disney, not sure how to speak.
Michael Eisner had no choice but to be depressed and said softly: "Mr. Smith, that's not that easy."
