"Not for Best Actor," Anne Hathaway announced the nomination list directly, "Jeff Bridges "Crazy Heart", George Clooney "In the Clouds", Colin Philes "Single Man"..."

A personal name jumped out of Anne Hathaway's mouth, and Leonardo DiCaprio couldn't help but look at Murphy. For some reason, he suddenly felt that he had lost the election.

"Jeremy Reiner, "Bomb Disposal Force."

The fourth person is named, but he still doesn't have his own name. Leonardo DiCaprio's heart gradually sinks. He knows that Robert Downey Jr. is also determined to be nominated for Best Actor...

At this moment, the little friendship with Robert Downey Jr. was completely thrown behind Leonardo DiCaprio. He didn't want to hear the name Robert Downey Jr. at all.

The last nomination is available. If there is Robert Downey Jr., it means there is no him.

"Robert Downey Jr., "Wolf of Wall Street"!"

Not Leonardo DiCaprio, nor "Shut Island"!

Leonardo DiCaprio leaned heavily on the back of the chair, his brows tightly locked, and his eyes turned unconsciously to Murphy.

There was warm applause in the banquet hall, and Murphy was smiling and applauding.

His hands trembled slightly, and Leonardo DiCaprio understood that he had lost in this game.

“Best Director Nomination!”

The applause stopped, and Anne Hathaway's voice sounded again, "James Cameron "Avatar"..."

Leonardo DiCaprio breathed a sigh of relief. With the controversy caused by "Wolf of Wall Street", Murphy Stanton may not be nominated for Best Director, so he can win a little back.

"Catherine Bigelow, "Bomb Disposal Force."

"The second one." Leonardo DiCaprio counted down.

"Lee Daniels, True Love!"

The previously embarrassed face improved, and Leonardo DiCaprio continued to recite silently, "Third!"

"Jason Reitman, "In the Clouds"!"

"The fourth one!" Leonardo DiCaprio's mouth curled up slightly, and Murphy Standu's chances of winning the best director's nomination are very small.

Because there is no director of "Shut Island" in the announced nomination list, Martin Scorsese, who is one of the four major directors, has an overwhelming advantage in terms of qualifications and connections. Moreover, "Shut Island" has not received any Oscar nomination before, even for balance, the academy will give priority to Martin Scorsese instead of Murphy Stanton.

These thoughts flashed through Leonardo DiCaprio's head instantly, and a less obvious smile appeared on the corner of his curled mouth.

Although there is no evidence that Murphy Stanton is related to his nomination for the Oscar for Best Actor, Leonardo DiCaprio believes that he is absolutely inseparable. Since he cannot win the Nomination for Best Actor, he will not be nominated for Best Director.

Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for him to be nominated for the best director. The last place must belong to the "Shut Island" he invested in, and it must be Martin Scorsese!

"Murphy Stanton, "Wolf of Wall Street"!"

Anne Hathaway's voice sounded, and Leonardo DiCaprio's gradually revealing smile instantly stiffened, "What?"

He turned to look at Murphy, "How could it be him? Why not Martin Scorsese?"

After the announcement of the best director's nomination, there was a shocking applause in the banquet hall. Leonardo DiCaprio was a little stunned, sitting here with a gloomy face, without any movement.

Suddenly, the camera lens at the scene turned to capture Murphy, like a conditioned reflex. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed that the camera lens was aimed at his desk. Leonardo DiCaprio immediately dissipated the stiff smile on his face, and his black face changed to enthusiastic congratulations. His hands clapped hard with the applause in the banquet hall, fully demonstrating the demeanor of the Hollywood superstar.

With the announcement of the list of best director nominations, Murphy also calmed down and the most difficult nomination was finally obtained.

Next, Anne Hathaway announced the list of nominations for Best Picture, which is the first time that the Oscars have ever won more than five films.

"Best Pictures: Weakness, Bomb Defence Force, Avatar, Wolf of Wall Street, District 9, Growth Education, Flying Houses, In the Far and Serious Men."

“No “Shut Island”!”

Just like during the performance, Leonardo DiCaprio widened his eyes exaggeratedly. On the nomination list for nine films, there was no "Shut Island" of his own!

His face suddenly became extremely dark, as if the sky was covered with clouds.

No wonder Leonardo DiCaprio's face was so stinky. Among the nomination list for all twenty-four awards announced, "Shutland" did not receive even one nomination!

For Leonardo DiCaprio, who is determined to make a difference in the Oscars and wants to win the Best Actor Little Golden Man, this is tantamount to a huge failure.

He calculated silently in his mind that Murphy Stanton's "Wolf of Wall Street" actually won nine Oscar nominations in total, including Best Editing, Best Photography, Best Costume Design, Best Art Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director and Best Picture!

"Damn it!"

Leonardo DiCaprio whispered, and the nomination was announced at this time. Without waiting for a photo and receiving souvenirs, he stood up and left the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills.

Murphy also saw Leonardo DiCaprio leaving, but he didn't care at all. Leonardo DiCaprio would definitely think that the defeat in "Shutland" was related to him, but it was indeed related to him, but this was nothing. He was never the kind of saint who had to bear silently when he was bullied.

If someone slapped him, he would only return it with a knife. If he didn't pay it back at that time, he would be waiting for a more appropriate opportunity.

This is a highly competitive society. Murphy has never been afraid of competition. Instead, he enjoys this kind of competition. To put it in a sentence from a great man on the other side of the Pacific, it is to have endless fun with others.

After announcing the nomination list, it was time to take routine group photos and receive souvenirs. Under the rules defined by the School of Film Arts and Sciences, there was no fierce competition scene on site, but it was a joyful scene.

Although the Oscar battle is very bloody, the School of Film Arts and Sciences believes that the role of annual banquets is not to create an atmosphere of peace and prosperity, but to allow nominees who may not be elected to get a feeling of being surrounded by a sense of honor. In addition to taking photos, receiving nomination certificates and enjoying delicious food, they will also receive a beautiful gift, which is undoubtedly an encouragement to the filmmakers who perform the most outstandingly in the year.

In some ways, the nominee luncheon before the Oscars is more like a sorority party. The college can demonstrate its formality. Nominees have issued certificates, meetings, etc. Everyone meets, exchanges and talks about the gains and losses of the year. On the surface, it is somewhat similar to the symposium of outstanding workers on the other side of the Pacific.

People like Murphy who have won the nomination are naturally in a very good mood. In the Hollywood circle, even if there are various controversies and troubles around the Oscars, no one will deny it. It is a very honorable and worth showing off when nominating the Oscar. It is not easy to win the Oscar Little Goldman, and it is also not easy to get a nomination. While spending huge time and capital costs, it also requires opportunities, coincidences and efforts.

Of course, this is also a good place to build relationships with public relations. After the photo was over, Murphy chatted with many people for a while.

Although there is no hope of winning this year's Oscar, no one can wait until they use it to remember to pull things like a network, as it would be too late.

Finally, before leaving the Hilton Hotel, Murphy also specifically interviewed by a Fox TV reporter.

“I spend much more money on film production than on the cast,” he said when asked why Murphy always controls the cost of the film. “This is also an important reason why my film can control the cost.”

When the reporter asked how to face the difficulties of filming and production, Murphy said, "For those who make movies, it is beneficial to go through a difficult period, because they will think in difficulties. If they are spoiled by a sufficient budget, they will also be a spoiled film; and if you overcome many difficulties to shoot, I believe the audience can feel it."

He added, "I think all the first time filming people will encounter the same thing. Once you decide to do it, there is no such dilemma, and you will no longer care about what will happen next."

When he left the hotel, Murphy met Sandra Bullock, and the other party greeted him on his own initiative. Murphy also chatted with him for a while. He vaguely remembered that the other party should be the best actress of this Oscar.

Seeing Sandra Bullock's face with a stiff expression due to the injection, Murphy could only sigh that just as he was constantly accumulating qualifications, there were really a variety of ways to win the Oscar heavyweight award.

After getting in the car, he ordered the driver to go back to the Wave Manor. Murphy called Gal Gadot, who had been in Israel for a while, told the good news he had just received from the nominee luncheon, then went home to change into casual clothes and prepared to go to a beach restaurant in Santa Monica to attend James Franco's party.
