American Tax Officer

After a long while, having regained his composure, he asked again, "Director David, this is the position of the assistant director of the intelligence agency. Aren't you going to think it over?"

"No need, as I've said, I might not be cut out for the job. Tax work is more my speed," David replied.

Elvis was left somewhat speechless by this. With a single effort, you've rooted out nine spies lurking in the Los Angeles area. If you were in charge of the intelligence agency, with such vast resources at your disposal, wouldn't the spies in other regions be easily caught?

And you say you're not cut out for the job?

Of course, Elvis knew this was just an excuse from David. But since David was unwilling, there was nothing he could do. He stood up and said, "Well, Director David, if you change your mind, feel free to call me anytime."

"I will."

...

The following evening, the Dolby Theatre shone like a dazzling pearl on Hollywood Boulevard, where the 93rd Academy Awards ceremony was taking place.

As dusk fell, the façade of the theatre, illuminated by lights, became even more majestic and elegant. Fans and media reporters crowded on both sides of the red carpet, eagerly awaiting the arrival of Hollywood celebrities.

"Hello everyone, this is BBC, welcome to the 93rd Academy Awards ceremony. The celebrities are about to arrive. Stay tuned."

"Hello everyone, this is the cable television network. The Oscar winners for best actor and actress will be revealed tonight. Let's see who will take home the honor."

"..."

The awards are the most authoritative and professional in the global film industry and hold the greatest influence worldwide.

This attracted broadcasts from over 200 countries and regions, so the media presence was naturally too numerous to count.

At 7 P.M. sharp.

The arrival of stars such as Will Smith, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Hugh Jackman, and others such as Robert Downey Jr. instantly set off a wave of cheers at the venue.

The invited film stars who arrived at the venue showcased their gowns and walked the red carpet to the flashes of photographers and media.

This lasted for almost an hour until 8 P.M., when all the invited celebrities had entered the theatre, and the grand Oscars banquet officially began!

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 93rd Academy Awards ceremony. I declare, the ceremony now officially begins..." Continue your journey on empire

Host Regina King took to the stage. She is a talented actress, director, and producer, known for her roles in "If Beale Street Could Talk" and "Watchmen," among others. For "If Beale Street Could Talk," she won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Series, Miniseries, or Motion Picture Made for Television.

While the host conducted the opening ceremony,

Nobody noticed that in a section on the second floor to the right, a few figures quietly took their seats.

"This Oscars ceremony really is quite impressive!"

The one expressing this sentiment was Nisen, who felt thrilled at the thought that they would soon be making a splash.

"Indeed, it is quite grand," David admitted, casually crossing his legs and surveying the crowd below, finally resting his gaze on the invited celebrities and beginning to scrutinize them one by one.

...

The Oscars usually start with categories like Best Editing and Sound Mixing, which are not as coveted, making for a somewhat dull watch until about two hours in, when the main event finally arrived.

"Now I announce, the Best Actor of the 93rd Academy Awards goes to Anthony Hopkins!"

The announcement was met with thunderous applause and cheers from the audience.

At this moment, David retracted his scrutinizing gaze and joined in the applause.

This was not the first time Anthony Hopkins had won the Oscar for Best Actor.

Back in 1991, he claimed the award for "The Silence of the Lambs."

In that film, his performance was nothing short of mesmerizing, so his winning again was not at all surprising.

But David's applause was not so much for his acting skill as it was for the actor's integrity and clean tax record, which David deemed worthy of respect.

After the host announced the winner.

Anthony Hopkins stepped onto the stage, delivered a heartfelt acceptance speech, then descended with the Oscar in hand.

The host continued, "I announce, the Best Actress goes to Frances McDormand!"

Frances McDormand, too, is a seasoned Hollywood actress.

Like Anthony, she had previously won the Oscar for Best Actress for "Fargo" in 1996, making this her second time receiving the honor.

Frances McDormand took the stage and said, "First, I'd like to thank..."

After ten minutes of her acceptance speech, she curtsied and stepped down from the podium.

Host Regina King then took over the stage, and after another ten minutes of closing remarks, she announced, "This concludes the Oscars ceremony. Thank you all for coming, thank you!"

As the host finished her speech,

Upstairs, Nisen immediately asked, "Director, shall we proceed?"

David didn't say a word, merely giving a slight nod.

Nisen shouted through his earpiece, "Move in!"
