As time entered March, Ryan was in his spare time in filming "Gladiator", constantly communicating with his investment team and paying attention to the unpredictable stock market. On the surface, the upward momentum of the Nasdaq Index seemed to have no end, and the IT madness would still be maintained.

Although Scott is ready to buy short after Cisco becomes the world's largest company with market value, the investment is relatively limited. They have made huge profits from the stock market and there is no need to take unnecessary risks.

The preliminary work of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has entered the final stage, and some adult actors have already joined the crew. According to Chris Columbus' plan, the movie will officially start after the Oscars.

There are dedicated people in charge of these, Ryan doesn't need to worry too much, and his spare energy is mainly concentrated on Pixar Studio.

Despite the crazy plans, how to implement them will be a big problem. Since he was successfully poached by Disney, he has been contacting Ed Kaml through encrypted satellite phones to deal with the behemoth of Walt Disney in the near future.

The relatively united Pixar will make Disney difficult, while the sharp management conflicts will definitely make Disney's board of directors very energetic.

As time goes by, Ryan and other major actors gradually found their own states, but the shooting was never smooth. When shooting fighting scenes, people would be injured from time to time. In addition, the extremely bad weather in the UK, and the frequent rains caused the crew to often suspend filming.

In order to protect the huge arena built, the crew had to pay high maintenance costs.

This state continues. Ridley Scott has always been tense since the opening battle. He has lost his temper countless times.

Especially Jennifer Lopez, who returned from the Grammy Awards, became the main target of the old man's rebuke. The actress he personally decided on her acting performance was indeed a little immature.

Although Jennifer Lopez stole the limelight at this year's Grammy Awards Ceremony with her Versace deep V vacuum green yarn evening dress and was even named the best dress Grammy ever by the media, for the movie, she is just an absolute newcomer.

Jennifer Lopez's performance can only be described as barely qualified. The crew's filming has been unsuccessful. What makes Ryan even more depressed is that his Oscar vote has not been received yet.

Did the college mail the ballots to Jenkins Manor? Ryan had no choice but to think so, and then called Nicole, who was on vacation in Los Angeles, and got some jaw-dropping news about the Oscars.

The films that were shortlisted for the Oscar this year, generally lacked enough heavyweight works. Although films including "The Pianist" and "The Rules of Cider House" have received enough praise from the critics, they cannot hide their weakness in the box office. The lack of a certain box office figure shows that the film lacks a sufficient audience base, and a large number of movies without an audience base participate in the Oscar competition. This will inevitably affect the ratings of the award ceremony.

Among the five movies that were shortlisted for Best Picture, "American Beauty", the box office performance was slightly better.

Ryan, who used to be a synonym for box office, has been working hard for 40 million US dollars in the North American box office.

Even the mainstream media in North America believe that this Oscar is destined to be the most dullest in recent years. Some tabloids even began to look forward to Romance? Polish basics can withstand the award ceremony and sacrifice themselves to save the Oscar's ratings.

Just after this month, news about the Oscars suddenly increased. The School of Film Arts and Sciences held a press conference claiming that about 4,000 ballots mailed to the Academy members were lost, and the packages containing these ballot mail were mislabeled as third-level mail.

Although the U.S. Postal Service Regional Distribution Center soon found about 1,000 of the votes, in order for affected members to vote, the college sent the ballots again in a yellow envelope and delayed the voting deadline until three days before the Oscars ceremony.

However, this is just the beginning of a series of news about this year's Oscars. The news that followed even Ryan, who was filming far away in the UK, was overwhelmed.

The Wall Street Journal, a subsidiary of News Corp., has carried forward the style of the Sun, secretly fetched voting information from the judges, trying to announce the selection results in advance, and made Robert Rheim, chairman of the School of Film Arts and Sciences, so angry that he was furious.

For this reason, the Academy issued an open letter, accusing the Wall Street Journal of trying to conduct individual interviews with judges to know the results in advance, which is an infringement of the privacy rights of the Film Academy. This Academy Awards ceremony will refuse any form of interviews.

But all this is not over yet. Perhaps God is joking with Oscars, or perhaps the School of Film Arts and Sciences is joking with itself. When it was mid-March, the Oscar Little Golden Man was stolen.

On March 10, 55 Oscars were stolen at a loading and unloading dock of a land express company. These little golden men suddenly disappeared as if they had wings. Whether it was the college, express company, or the Los Angeles County Police Department, they could not find any clues. They were like thieves in Hollywood movies, who came to the real world and committed this amusing and crying case.

The Little Golden Man, which represents the highest honor in Hollywood, has been unable to recover it, so the School of Film Arts and Sciences had to commission manufacturer R.S. Owens to re-produce a batch of new trophies to avoid the embarrassment of no awards.

Until nine days later, a man named Willie Fulgill found 52 of the Little Golden Man in a trash can in a supermarket near South Koreatown, Los Angeles, and the other three were still missing until Ryan returned to North America.

To this end, the college held a press conference, announcing that Fulgil would be given 50,000 US dollars as a reward, and also gave his son Allen two tickets to the party. The limelight of this little person instantly overwhelmed all the Oscar-nominated big stars and became the darling of the media's rush to report.

Two employees of the freight company, truck driver Lawrence Lydenter and dock worker Anthony Hart, were arrested for stealing the Little Golden Man. Both of them strangely admitted their crimes and chose not to defend themselves.

This incident immediately aroused the suspicion of many people. What are they not good at stealing? Why do they steal the little golden man who is actually not of high value?

The Oscar Little Golden Man is something that Hollywood industry insiders dream of and a symbol of honor, but for outsiders, it is not very valuable, and it is extremely difficult to sell stolen goods after stealing it. If the two old employees of express companies were either confused, they would be really fools.

Anyway, the Oscars ceremony is about to be held, and the public opinion was not enthusiastic before. Journalists from all walks of life were worried that there was nothing to speculate. Who would have expected that so many selling points suddenly appeared in a short period of time, and finally gave reporters room to play, and newspapers from various Americans made a big fuss.

Some reporters suspect that these news is a trick used by the Academy of Film Arts and Sciences to attract people's attention to the Oscars. Although the Academy strongly denies it, the sudden rise in this year's Oscars has triggered a craze of discussion across the United States, which is an indisputable fact.

The award ceremony was about to be held, and Ryan also returned to Los Angeles from the UK. In addition to going to Pixar Studio and discussing with several core managers, he hid in his manor for the rest of the day.

Although the frequent accidents of this year's Oscar have attracted the attention of most media, entertainment reporters will not let go of the popular candidates who won the award. The nominee for the Best Actor and Actress is still their pursuit.

Among the predictions of many authoritative media, Ryan has a very high voice for winning the Best Actor, and can even go hand in hand with Kevin Spacey. Film critics have also written articles in their columns, believing that the role of Spearman is definitely worth an Oscar Little Golden Man. If the academy still stubbornly awards the award to others, their discrimination against young people will be too obvious.

Many media believe that Ryan has been nominated for Best Actor for the fourth time in a row. Even in order to attract the audience's attention and increase the ratings, the academy should give him an explanation.

"Compared with the reform of the college's youthfulness, I appreciate the previous series of techniques."

Sitting in the locker room, Ryan let Nicole and Jennifer Meyer do their styling, "Is this an accident or a coincidence? Perhaps only God knows it, but I have to say that the academy's methods are getting more and more clever."

"Why can I always feel that there is a shamelessness called Ryan? Jenkins in this incident?" Ni tightened the black bow tie in her hand with force, and then continued to say, "Dear, don't use your eyes to measure everyone in this world."

"Okay, maybe I'm overthinking it." Ryan quickly changed the topic, and the award ceremony was about to come. He didn't think of any disputes. "Nicole, where are the dresses you prepared? Do you want to wear Trinity's leather jacket?"

"I'm not that bored." Nicole waved his hand to Jennifer Mayer and walked into the inner room of the studio's locker room. "Jenny has prepared it for me long ago."

Jennifer Mayer shrugged Ryan, circled around him, and said, "Last year, your look was so bad. Now, our handsome Ryan is back."

She also walked into the inner room, "I'll go and help Nicole, you can wait a while."

Ryan understood that it would take at least half an afternoon to wait for a while. The Oscar red carpet is the best place for women to compete for beauty.
