Chapter 309 Surprise at the Golden Globe Awards
As Dongfeng TV Production Company began to go formal, Jed has rarely participated in the creation of specific scripts, and even passed through the outline of the script very rarely.The only TV series that Jed has participated in recently is "Glee". In fact, Jed only proposed some concepts and character settings, and the rest of the work was handed over to the "High School Musical" crew to complete.Although Jed is still serving as a hands-off shopkeeper, "Glee" still lists Jed on the list of creator Ming.Only Jed asked to be listed as the second author, so Jed was included on the list.
In this year's Golden Globe Awards TV drama category, in addition to "Glee", the longevity medical drama "Doctor House" is also a series of Dongfeng TV Production Company.It's just that when "Doctor House" was popular, he was chased and intercepted by his brother "Boston Legal".Finally, "Boston Legal" came to an end, and as a result, HBO TV station produced a "Mad Men" to block "Doctor House" from becoming king.In addition to these two dramas, the vampire-themed "True Blood" and the crime-themed "The Good Wife" are also dramas produced by Dongfeng TV Production Company.
A TV production company can have four TV series shortlisted for the Golden Globe Awards, and Dongfeng TV Production Company has once again proved that it is the best TV production company in the United States.Reminiscent of the fact that this company holds the copyrights of talent shows such as "Talent Series" and "Idol Series" and ace reality shows such as "Big Brother" and "Fei Huang Teng Da", many people present showed a little thought .
In fact, there are a lot of TV shows in the United States, but there are only a few types of programs that can really pull out the ratings in the evening prime time, either TV dramas like crime dramas or family ethics dramas, or TV shows like late-night talk shows or reality shows. columns.The so-called variety shows, game shows and soap operas that were popular in the past have all been driven to the daytime slot.
The talent show among reality shows is a new type of show that has sprung up recently. After all, the popular reality shows in the past are all competitive reality shows like "Big Brother" and "Fei Huang Teng Da".And when Dongfeng cooperated with Fox Television Network to launch "American Idol", various talent show programs emerged one after another.After Dongfeng cooperated with Fox on "American Idol", it soon cooperated with CBS on "America's Got Talent".And recently, they are negotiating with the National Television Network about the broadcast authorization of "X Factor". If you include "The Voice of America" which is still under negotiation, Dongfeng TV Production Company has almost monopolized all the mainstream talent talent shows in the United States.
Not only that, Dongfeng TV Production Company has also set up niche talent shows with cable channels, such as "America's Next Top Model" and "The Proud Son" with the Art and Entertainment Channel with a majority of female audiences; and with the largest cable TV channel in the United States ——Entertainment Time Channel cooperated with two culinary talent shows, "Hell's Kitchen" and "Master Chef".Now the only reality show that can compete with Dongfeng is the ABC Television Network's "Fordward Speed".This program was originally authorized by Galaxy Film Company and Disney Group when they had a friendly relationship. Unfortunately, due to contract issues at that time, Dongfeng TV Company only enjoyed the copyright and brand dividends, and the production and broadcast rights were all owned by Disney ABC TV Group.
The comedy star responsible for hosting the 67th Golden Globe Awards Ceremony is Ricky Gervais, a famous American radio host, TV personality, comedian and movie actor.In addition to the so-called two camps of film actors and TV actors in the United States, there is also a separate camp called comedians.Comedians are not divided into film and television, but they must be stand-up comedians.
American stand-up comedy is generally performed in bars and small performing arts halls. Usually, one person performs on stage for 1 minutes to 6 minutes, just to amuse the audience.Because there are basically no props and other expenses for this performance, it has won the support of many small bars and small performing arts bar owners, and it is also a shortcut for many performing artists to become famous.
Really popular stand-up comedians also pay tens of thousands of dollars a night. They usually only perform once a week in a bar, and perform three to five performances a week at most.The warm-up comedians who can appear before and after them can also earn about [-] yuan, as for other time periods, it is not necessarily so.For example, the comedians during the daytime are completely free, and the boss may not let you on stage.
Because the places where comedians make their debut are relatively concentrated, the grouping of comedians in the United States is very serious.They can force the TV categories of the Emmy Awards and Golden Globe Awards to split the series into two sub-items of "drama" and "comedy" for awarding.Basically, the category of "comedy" is the self-entertainment of comedy stars, which makes other actors envious.
Of course, the television awards also have a mix of TV movies, miniseries and musicals in addition to the drama and comedy categories.So in the United States, the two major TV awards - the Golden Globe TV category and the Primetime Emmy Awards have three items for best drama series, best actor and actress, and best supporting actor and actress.However, compared to so many TV stations in the United States, these awards are actually a drop in the bucket.
Unlike the Emmys and Oscars, the Golden Globes do not have professional awards, so there are no awards for best photography, best editing, or best sound effects.At the same time, unlike the Emmy Awards, the Golden Globe Awards do not impose a threshold for the audience of TV dramas.The Emmy Awards stipulate that if a certain TV series or TV program is only watched by less than 5% of American households, then it can only participate in the local Emmy Awards.National Emmys such as the Primetime Emmys, the Sports Emmys, the Daytime Emmys and the News and Documentary Emmys would not be nominating these shows.
Fortunately, there are 2 local Emmy awards in the United States, and the chances of winning are relatively high.The main reason why the Emmy Awards are more complicated than the Oscars and Golden Globes is that the Emmy Awards are hosted by three institutions: the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, and the International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. Host their respective Emmys, so that's pretty much it.
When Jed attended the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony, he was attracted by another nominated show that had nothing to do with him.That is the Golden Globe nomination list for Best Actress in a TV Movie and Miniseries, because Jed saw a TV movie that was very familiar back then, "God Bless Bobby".This is a TV movie based on a true story. The protagonist Bobby goes to extremes because he is not understood by his family as a gay and betrayed by his lover.After Bobby's death, Bobby's mother blamed herself and tried to make sense of gay life.
Finally, Bobby's mother finally understood why God refused to "cure" Bobby, who was gay, because Bobby's homosexuality was not a "disease" at all.After getting over her own demons, Bobby's mother started advocating for gay teens.According to the original historical trajectory, Sigourney Weaver, who played Bobby's mother, did not win the award.But arranging Jed to present this not very important award this time seems to imply something.Although the Golden Globe Awards was broadcast by the TV network under Jed's name this time, Jed himself did not know the final list of winners.
Sigourney Weaver is not an unknown actor, on the contrary, many Chinese audiences are familiar with her.The heroine of the first and second episodes of the classic sci-fi horror film "Alien" - Alan Ripley was played by her, and she later became the producer of the third and fourth episodes of "Alien".The producer who was able to make a movie and finally made this movie, Sigourney Weaver is also No.1.In addition to the "Alien" series, Sigourney Weaver has also participated in a series of performances in sci-fi movies, and is considered a first-line actress in the sci-fi world.And in the hit movie "Avatar", Sigourney Weaver played the key heroine-Dr. Grace.
A quarter of the way through the award presentation, the master of ceremonies began to remind Jed that it was time to present the awards backstage.When Jed went backstage, the chairman of the Golden Globe Awards Organizing Committee handed Jed a sealed envelope.
Jed joked: "Can you tell me who won the award?"
The chairman blinked slyly, "You can open the envelope and peek, oh, we seem to be being followed."
The conversation between Jed and the chairman in the background was naturally broadcast live by the camera, which immediately aroused laughter from the audience.Jed walked up to the stage amid the laughter of the audience, "Everyone knows that whether it's a TV movie or a mini-series, they have a shorter duration than a normal movie or series. Maybe someone said , so I don't need too many plots? But the question is, can you finish your story? The Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a TV Movie and Mini-Series is to honor those who have given us the last year by being shorter than others Actresses who leave equally impressive performances. Let's see the nominees."
After walking through the nomination list on the big screen, Jed tore open the envelope, then took a deep breath and said: "I really admire the courage of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association to give the Golden Globe to such a controversial work. Let us congratulate Seager Ms Newever!"
Signey stepped onto the stage and took the trophy from Jed. "I didn't expect the Press Association to be so sure of my performance. Although I believed in my performance, I was worried about some things outside the performance. Fortunately, my worries proved to be unnecessary, but I have to say that such worries are not Unfounded worries. With the enlightenment of our society, many people are becoming more and more tolerant, but some people are becoming more and more extreme. Especially in the online society, the anonymity of the Internet and the convenience of social networks make it easy for vulnerable groups to be bullied The number of times is increasing and it is getting easier. "God Bless Bobby" is an excellent movie. I admire the character I played in the play-Ms. Mary Griffith's righteous deeds! Finally, I would like to thank the Academy The trophy is presented to, thanks to my family for supporting me, and of course, to all the viewers who love me and never leave me.”
When Sigourney finished receiving the trophy, Jed had already stepped aside.After he remembered the plot in "God Bless Bobby", he couldn't help but sigh, although the society is getting more and more progressive, and there are many people calling for it, but human beings always have a kind of hostility towards the disadvantaged groups of their own kind.Jed couldn't help thinking of a sentence he had read before, "Maybe human beings are the only creatures on this planet that hate their own kind?"
After the Golden Globe TV awards, the film awards have also been issued one after another...
