Chapter 98: return
The Academy Awards, also known as the Academy Awards of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, is a film award sponsored by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, founded in 1929.
The award is the oldest, most authoritative and professional film award in the United States, and also the most influential film award in the world.
However, since the 1990s, the Academy Awards have gradually entered a vicious circle, wanting to gain ratings and exposure, but also discriminating against commercial films.
But the audience in front of the TV didn't want to watch art films, but commercial films and the big-name stars in the commercial film crew.
Of course, even after another twenty years, the Oscars are still eye-catching. Every year, there are countless male and female stars who want to be one of them, and they will not hesitate to pay an unimaginable price for it.
This year is the 67th Academy Awards, and the time and place have been announced. It will be held on March 27 at the Holy Auditorium in Los Angeles.
But before that, Ryan needs to pick up someone at the airport, Monica Bellucci, and she needs to come back at least a week in advance to prepare for the Oscars.
In fact, one week is not much. Many female stars have already started preparations more than half a month ago.
On the second-hand Bentley, Ryan looked at the tired-looking Monica Bellucci beside him, and said, "You need to take a good rest."
Monica Bellucci closed her eyes and narrowed her eyes for a while, "I also want to rest for a while, but you know, I have to attend a very important audition tomorrow."
"If the audition is successful, it will be very busy for a long time to come, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to have a break."
The audition for the Independence Day project has been dragged on for a long time, and the remaining three important roles in the film have already been decided.
Only Monica Bellucci's role in the audition is pending.
Twentieth Century Fox has revealed many times that it can let Monica Bellucci play this role without even needing to audition, provided that it increases the proportion of investment in the next Saw movie.
In this regard, Ryan naturally would not agree.
So dragged on until now.
"Do you need me to go with you?" Ryan asked casually.
Monica Bellucci opened her eyes and glanced at him, "It would be best if possible."
"Then let's talk about it." Ryan took half a day without any difficulty.
Next, instead of driving back to the apartment or the restaurant, Ryan turned onto Rodeo Drive and parked in front of a jewelry store.
Tiffany is one of the most famous jewelry brands in the world. It is luxurious and affordable at the same time.
When Monica Bellucci got out of the car and saw Tiffany's signboard, she hesitated for a moment and finally chose to remain silent.
Ryan walked in with Monica Bellucci in his arms, and greeted politely a male and a female shopping guide who were well-known in Hollywood.
"Welcome Mr. Ryan"
Apparently he wasn't here for the first time.
"Bring me the jewelry I ordered last time."
The shopping guide glanced enviously at Monica Bellucci and guided the two into the VIP area, served two cups of hand-ground coffee and said wait, then turned and walked inside.
Not long after, he came out holding a purple box and put it in front of the two of them.
"Open it and have a look." Ryan looked at Monica Bellucci and said.
Monica Bellucci was born as a model, and her understanding of the fashion industry is far from Ryan's. Naturally, she knew the meaning of Tiffany and hesitated for a while, and gently opened the box to reveal a dazzling array of jewelry.
Inside the box is not a piece of jewelry, but two pieces, a necklace and a pair of earrings. Canyon Novel Network
The necklace is composed of hundreds of broken diamonds, in the shape of a lifelike rose, and in the middle is a red gemstone with a size of more than ten carats; the earrings are also studded with broken diamonds, but the ruby is smaller, but there are five Six carats, very beautiful.
This is a series of jewelry, the design is very exquisite and luxurious, as dazzling as a flame.
Seeing the very expensive jewelry in front of her, Monica Bellucci was a little moved, but also a little speechless.
The Tiffany brand is famous for its diamonds, but the jewels in front of it are mainly rubies.
"How much?" She looked up at the shopping guide and asked.
The shopping guide looked at Monica Bellucci with some hesitation. The beautiful woman in front of her seemed to be a model. She should be very clear about the price of jewelry. Her question might be difficult to answer.

In the end, the shopping guide said cautiously, "This is a limited edition that was just launched this year, so the price is a little higher, about $1.2 million."
$1.2 million
Monica Bellucci pointed to the necklace and earrings in the box, and said, "The Tiffany brand is famous for its diamonds, but this set of jewelry in front of me mainly focuses on rubies."
Before she could finish speaking, Ryan stopped her from continuing, chose to take out the necklace in the box, put it on Monica Bellucci's white neck, looked carefully for a while, and felt very satisfied.
"This necklace is very suitable for you, very charming." After speaking, he put on the earrings for Monica Bellucci.
The red gemstone necklace hangs in front of the cleavage, paired with a pair of red earrings, which brings out the **** and charming of Monica Bellucci.
The only pity is that today Monica Bellucci is wearing a casual outfit, which doesn't go well with this jewelry set.
Monica Bellucci touched the necklace around her neck, and somewhat helplessly said, "It's too expensive, and Tiffany's jewelry brand should choose diamonds instead of rubies."
"Okay, next time, I will choose diamonds instead of rubies." Ryan showed an innocent expression.
How did he know that the Tiffany brand is famous for its diamonds, anyway, as long as they look good, and they are not bought for investment to wait for appreciation, but for the beauty to smile.
Besides, the dress has already been custom-made according to the color of the jewelry. It only needs to be slightly modified according to Monica Bellucci's body shape and opinions, and the dress cannot be changed together.
Monica Bellucci corrected Ryan, saying, "I mean it's expensive."
"It's okay~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ryan smiled and said, "It just happens to be used to attend the Oscar dinner held by Vanity Fair. "
As for attending the Oscars, and red carpet jewelry, that's what counts.
It's just that it's not bought, but rented.
In fact, most of the female stars competing for beauty on the Oscar red carpet would choose to rent a few precious jewels, and only a few first-line actresses' jewels were endorsed by brands.
Of course, there are also female stars who spend a lot of money, choosing to wear jewelry bought by themselves or their husbands.
After leaving Tiffany, the two then went to a private clothing store that ordered a dress to see if the dress fit and if there was anything that needed to be modified.
Custom handmade dresses are also expensive, and not one set, but two sets of dresses, one for the Oscars and one for the dinner.
However, female celebrities with a little more money will not choose to rent dresses, and usually order them privately.
The reason is very simple, I am afraid of bumping into people, and embarrassing situations will appear.
Therefore, a female celebrity walking the red carpet is far less simple than imagined, and it means a huge expense. Even some second- and third-tier Hollywood female stars feel painful to pay.
Let's put it this way, I spent almost all the money I earned on a trip to Los Angeles some time ago.
Ryan's dress is much simpler, two sets of handmade suits, leather shoes, and a passable watch.
Next, the two walked around Rodeo Drive, going in and out of luxury stores, but this time they didn't do much shopping, they just bought some cheap trinkets and had dinner by the way.
Meanwhile, the duo returns to their North Hollywood apartment, where a man-woman war ensues, and the scene is extraordinarily heated.
