Illiterate top class: three years of poor performance, become a superstar

Chapter 251 Congratulations to Mr. Xu Nian and "Infernal Affairs"

"..."

As soon as the host finished speaking, the audience burst into enthusiastic applause.

It seemed like he was deliberately trying not to show respect to the hosts.

Most of the people present are from the film and television industry, but if you know how to play, the main thing is... you can't always let the host steal the spotlight.

Besides, the program schedule for the award ceremony was released before the ceremony started.

Who doesn’t know where it is now?

Interrupted by the lively atmosphere, an actor guest-starred as the host and said with a dumbfounded look: "Okay, okay, this is how we play, right~"

"Then I will be a guest presenter."

"Whoever heckles the best will be awarded the MVP on the spot."

In response, the audience burst into laughter: "Hahaha..."

The noisy atmosphere became more intense.

Although the following awards have nothing to do with most of the people present, or even have nothing to do with their lives, it does not prevent everyone from being excited.

Because each of the following awards at least represents the peak level of a certain field of Chinese film and television this year.

Let’s put it this way, although the Chinese watch is more difficult to win among the three awards, after reform after reform, the Golden Rooster has represented the pinnacle level of film and television awards.

After all, even the 'Special Jury Award', which once had a certain protective nature, was completely canceled in the last session.

Completely bringing professional awards back to the profession.

For example, Shao Manning's acting ability in Detective Tang 2 is at a level that is obvious to all.

If it were the Golden Rooster Award in the early days, with a movie like Tang Detective 2 that has a high box office and is very successful overseas, and there are some factors of this and that, it is estimated that Shao Manning can directly appoint the female supporting role.

Because the actress who won the Best Supporting Actress award was in a movie that wasn't very good.

There's nothing to say about the actress' performance.

This... is called professionalism.

The award that will be drawn next is the Best Actor Award, which is the most watched part of this year's Golden Rooster Awards.

none of them.

Not only because Xu Nian was nominated for "Infernal Affairs", but also because the other four nominees are not weak.

And it’s a bit topical.

For example... Chen Qi was successfully nominated for "Desperate", and his performance in the film was indeed good.

Far exceeded the audience's expectations.

For example... Lu Mingkai, who tried too hard, failed to be shortlisted with 'Ten Thousand Cities'.

Therefore, while the scene was bustling with excitement, the barrage in the online live broadcast room had been blocked by "enthusiastic netizens".

"Stop dragging Tang, why are you still playing with this? Start, start, start!"

"It's just that every time I watch this kind of event live, I can't get the humor of the host. I just want to fast forward."

"I only have one expectation, don't let Xu win the award, don't let him get slapped in the face, he's so good at the frontcourt interview!"

"The key point is that "Infernal Affairs" has not been released and has not been criticized. If it wins an award directly, does it count as shady?"

"The professionalism of the current Golden Rooster Awards is still worthy of trust. There is no care for the parts that have been awarded in the last and this year. Even the shortlist is very strict. This year, more than one actor was not shortlisted."

"Personally, I think Xu Nian's hope is very, very high. What can I say about his performance? It's the type that the more you watch it carefully, the more you like it. It's completely different from the slices of Fengshen acting that you can often see on Weibo. The latter The more I watch, the more awkward and unrealistic I feel; the more I watch Xu Nian’s performance, the more I feel that I have ignored his face, which is also natural, silky and pleasing to the eye."

"..."

There have been countless comments on the barrage, and they are looking forward to this session.

This year there are players Xu Nian and "Xu Men", both of whom are traffickers.

The other three finalists are all movie stars.

Although the barrage discussion basically revolves around Xu, it does not prevent other nominated contestants from receiving attention.

Process is important.

The results are just as important.

However, judging from the trend of barrage speeches, most people do not want Xu Nian to win the award.

"Infernal Affairs" is the only film that was not released at this year's Golden Rooster Awards but was shortlisted for multiple awards.

It's very unsatisfactory.

The most annoying thing is that in the last group of awards, "Infernal Affairs" just didn't sign up for Best Actress.

This is true because from a popular perspective, "Infernal Affairs" does not have a heroine in the popular sense.

Although according to popular opinion, the current promotional materials for "Infernal Affairs" are excellent and satisfying;
But enthusiastic netizens really don't accept the sudden and serious competition for so many professional awards.

Even though everyone usually pays more attention to this matter after the fact, unlike this year, because of Xu, online attention does not prevent them from chirping.

However, among the audience who spoke through the barrage, some were more optimistic about Xu Nian.

Moreover, the speech was relatively pertinent and objective.

It is no exaggeration to say... Xu Nian's performance is just like that. The less familiar Xu Nian is, the easier it is to see that it is 'pleasing to the eyes'.

In the field of big screen performance, Xu Nian's outstanding appearance actually has a certain debuff effect.

At least this is the case when the films he stars in are released in the domestic market, because Xu Nian is now so popular that almost no one has heard of this name.

Let's put it this way, he is more famous than Chicken Brother.

This is also why when Detective Tang 2 was released in North America, Xu's acting skills were immediately highlighted!

…………

Finally, what some people consider to be a rather 'long' opening process is over.

The hosts invited the award-giving guests to the stage, and the process began to go down.

The guests said a few words briefly, and then five beams of lights lit up, falling on the heads of the five shortlisted actors.

Xu Nian, Chen Qi, etc.

The award presenter made a few jokes, and then went straight to the inevitable part -

"Please watch VCR"

The narration sounded quickly, and the frames of the candidates in the five beams of light were covered by videos of their performances.

“Amazing performance!”

The guest praised.

"The winner of this year's Best Actor is..."

The guests tore open the envelope and took out the winner who had been finalized by the jury.

The two guests looked down at the list of winners, looked up and smiled, and the background music also took on a disturbing look.

The atmosphere brewed for a few seconds, and the guest finally announced with a hearty laugh: "Congratulations...Mr. Xu Nian!"

The next second, there was deafening applause, and many people even stood up and cheered.

The narration sounded impatiently.

"Xu Nian used his outstanding performance to perfectly interpret the mentality of an undercover agent in eternal purgatory...

It uniquely expresses the rich inner world of the character...

The unique performance style allows the audience's mind to be completely involved in the plot, firmly grabbing the audience's attention...

The outstanding performance level fully reflects the diversity and richness of the characters..."

In contrast, Mr. Xu walked onto the stage calmly.

There was no rush to perform celebrations with the companions sitting next to me, nor any fancy operations like this.

Just so unhurried.

The cheers and applause at the scene were several decibels higher.

On the stage, the award-winning guest handed the trophy to Xu Nian with a smile: "Congratulations to Teacher Xu." Then he joked: "This is the second time that Teacher Xu has won the Best Actor trophy. He gets one every year. Why don't you share it with us?" experience?"

"Shall we go back and study?"

Xu Nian, who was sandwiched between the two award-giving guests, looked around and said with a smile: "I'm not very good at summarizing experience."

"However... if you two are willing to join the 'Xu Men', I can work hard to customize my personal experience for you."

Guest: "..."

Do you want to see what you are saying?

You won't shy away from bullying us old-timers, right?

How dare we take such talk!
Before today, everyone may not have taken 'Xu Men' seriously, but after today, this name has become a god in the Chinese film and television industry!
Being shortlisted and nominated is also a very powerful strength!

After joking happily again, the two guests handed over the stage to Xu Nian.

After being quiet for two seconds, Xu Nian looked at the trophy in his right hand, raised it and shook it: "It's an honor to win the award again."

"Thank you to the Golden Rooster Awards for recognizing my acting ability. I finally fully realized that I can make a difference as an actor."

""Infernal Affairs" is a very good work. I hope it can meet everyone's expectations when it meets you."

"The recognition from the Golden Rooster Award also allows me to finally give myself the title of actor with confidence."

"Thank you, I am actor Xu Nian."

As soon as the words fell, the applause reached its peak tonight.

It was so noisy that there was no other noise.

Apart from anything else, insiders actually expected this result.

And I have already accepted this result in my heart.

Let's put it this way, even Lu Mingkai was convinced that Xu Nian won the Golden Rooster Best Actor.

Because, in the past month, Li Cheng and Zhuang Hui have made some efforts to reduce the targeting within the circle as much as possible.

This includes but is not limited to inviting seniors in the industry to watch the film within the company.

Most of the familiar names in the industry were invited by Li Cheng and others to watch Infernal Affairs internally.

Even actors with antagonistic emotions like Lu Mingkai are on the invitation list.

Of course, Lu Mingkai cannot do anything but spoil the world after watching it.

That's not revenge, nor is it crazy, it's because he doesn't want his life...

Therefore, at this moment, some of the online live broadcast viewers are a little bit intolerant of it.

"No, did Xu Nian really win the Golden Rooster Award? Is there really no shady story?"

"'Infernal Affairs' is so good? Xu Nian's acting ability is indeed quite good, but...why did he win in a competition with the best actor again?"

"I have to go see this movie. If this actor shows any care, I will turn Xu Nian into a dog!"

"One thing to say, Xu Nian's acceptance speech was relatively pertinent and peaceful. He has only now officially called himself an actor. I think he has a bit of love for acting."

"Actually, it's something that is expected and reasonable. Xu Nian usually doesn't make blind remarks. I'm not so sure that he is just joking at most, but not confident. Unfortunately, I don't know the full picture now. It's not good. evaluate."

"..."

Xu Nian certainly didn't know much about what was happening on the Internet at the moment.

The success of winning the Golden Rooster Award as he wished has given him new motivation to move forward.

After all, today is different.

He has made a new decision to do his job well and obtain some external things to make his life more interesting.

So... love is really something that even dogs don’t talk about.

Now that he doesn't have to fall in love, he still can't escape the 'fate' of running for love.

It’s not easy~
…………

The hustle and bustle of the awarding of Best Actor subsided a little, and the hosts immediately brought the focus to the new excitement——

Best Actress Award

The competition for this award is also very lively, much crazier than before for Best Supporting Actress.

The final winner was a veteran actress.

Name: Xu Chang
42 years old this year.

He has always been a low-key person and a purely talented player. He doesn’t even have a Weibo or Weishi account yet.

I have almost never participated in variety shows, and as for business activities, I have never seen anyone.

Passionate about performing.

It just so happens that these female protagonists who can play the leading roles on the big screen are all very good-looking, with no sign of age at all, and they are fully worthy of the word "charming".

It fits Xu Nian's eyes very well.

Xu Nian had an intuition that according to the current career plan, they would definitely cooperate in the future.

Nothing else, it's really hard for an average actress to play with Xu Nian.

It's different from the previous one.

From a professional perspective, that film didn't make it onto the stage. A practical example is that Tian Wenqi didn't even come to the Golden Rooster Awards.

.........

After the two most lively awards, it’s Best Screenplay.

Zhuang Hui and Li Cheng were nominated together for "Infernal Affairs". At this moment, under the bright lights of the scene, both of them were a little nervous.

Their main identity is that of director.

Li Cheng has won some awards, otherwise he would not have gained the reputation of an outstanding young director.

Zhuang Hui basically didn’t.

The same thing is that neither of them has won any awards for screenwriting.

The current Golden Rooster Award represents the evaluation of the professional standards of Chinese film and television, so both of them are looking forward to it.

The end result is...a regrettable ending.

Because the finalists are indeed better.

Immediately after that came the Best Director award.

Li Cheng and Zhuang Hui, who were also nominated for "Infernal Affairs", were extremely nervous again.

Li Cheng even clasped his hands together and started cramming.

The title of outstanding young director he received is very famous in a sense, but who doesn’t want this kind of award that has a wider spread~

The guest presenting the award was a friend of Li Cheng. He took a moment to write in ink and tried his best to ridicule Li Cheng.

Then the envelope was torn open to announce the result.

"Congratulations... Li Cheng and Zhuang Hui."

Unlike the Golden Rooster Awards, which ban double-yolk eggs for leading actor and leading actress awards, directors can jointly win the award.

Because co-directing is very common in the industry.

It is inevitable that multiple people will jointly win the prize.

Unless it is a unit drama that can be calculated separately, it is difficult to get the Golden Rooster, but you can get the Huabiao next door.

Li Cheng and Zhuang Hui came to the stage to receive the award with great joy, just like the first time they got the little red flower in kindergarten.

Thieves are interesting.

The last one is the best feature film... The guest announced the result without any ink at all.

"Congratulations to Infernal Affairs."
