"Then can I sit next to you next time?" Because there were no reporters around, Virginia let go a little and cast a charming look at Eric.
Eric smiled and took the girl's little hand and squeezed it, and said, "Of course, as long as you want."
Virginia looked around, the awards ceremony would take a few minutes to start, and she was surrounded by familiar people, so she didn't break away, and obediently let Eric hold her hand.

It was not until more than 20 minutes later that the famous actor Steve Martin, known as Hollywood's "Pulsatilla", stepped onto the podium, and Eric cheered up a little. Because, the next award is the best original soundtrack, and the "Speechless Love" copied by Eric in "Dark War" was nominated.

After introducing the nominations, Steve Martin opened the envelope in his hand, glanced inside, then raised his head in a little surprise and searched for the audience. His gaze was locked on Eric's face for half a second, and then quickly retracted. Read: "This year's Oscar winners for best original soundtrack are: 'Silence Without Words', "Dark War"."
Wow-
Before the wordless love music could be thought of, there was a uniform exclamation in the whole hall in advance, and then countless eyes turned to Eric.
Eric also stood up in disbelief, quickly hugged everyone around him one by one, smiled and walked towards the stage.
After receiving the statuette from the hands of the award presenters, Eric came to the front of the microphone, quickly organized his words, looked around the audience, and said with a smile: "This is really surprising, I didn't expect it, I got it The first Oscar award, it turned out to be the best original soundtrack, but the statuette is heavier than I thought."
There was a chuckle from the audience.
After the laughter stopped for a while, Eric continued: "More than a year ago, I was just an unknown young man who had just grown up. Because my father passed away suddenly, I had to drop out of school and work in an Italian restaurant. Then, suddenly One day, I felt that I can't be like this anymore, I have to do something, I must do something, this desire is very strong, so I began to try to write my first novel and my first novel. I got away with a script, luckily with the help of some people, and I've made it all the way to where I am today. I've been into music since I was a kid, and after I got paid for the movie "Seventeen Back," I bought my own The first piano, I always ponder some tunes occasionally in my spare time, and then write them down clumsily with staves, and "Speechless Love" is the product of this inspiration. I am not a professional soundtrack engineer, so I got this The award was very unexpected. Here, I would like to thank those who have helped me along the way, Mr. Michael Krause, who helped me publish my first book, James Brooks and Penny Marshall, who Gave me the opportunity to enter Hollywood, Jeffrey Hansen, he helped me finish my first film, and in the following year, silently supported me, and finally, the beauty of my film Girls, oh... well, don't laugh, I mean it, thank you, thank you all."

"What's the matter, inspired again?" Virginia said with a little teasing in her tone.
Eric shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered a few people."
"Why don't you just say, how many women do you think of?" Virginia teased again softly.
Eric smiled, he did think of a few women, Isabel Adjani, who is appearing on the big screen, and two other women, Sophie Marceau and Monica Bellucci.
Eric originally had a feeling that these three women, although Isabel Adjani has the best acting skills, Sophie Marceau is second, and Monica Bellucci is completely a vase, but in terms of looks, The three have a lot in common.
