The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 574 Awards
"Wake up, lazy bastard."

Liu Shishi jumped onto the bed, pinched her boyfriend's nose, played with it for a while, and then pecked him on the lips several times.

Lu Yuan was woken up, stretched, opened his eyes, and saw a delicate little face.

Beautiful things can always make people happy, and those occasional bad tempers when waking up will disappear in an instant.

He smiled, put his arms around her neck, pulled her into his arms, and gave her two hard kisses.

"Pfft, it's so itchy~"

After playing around for a while, Liu Shishi lay in his arms with her hair loose, resting her head on his arm, and drawing circles on the kiss mark on his chest with her index finger.

These are the results of her battle last night.

Although she was defeated in the early stage, she played in the late stage and it was a protracted battle.

Relying on her quick recovery, she fights again and again after repeated defeats. When her brother advances, she retreats; when her brother is tired, she harasses him.

This continued for several rounds until the enemy was forced to call a truce, and finally the final victory was achieved.

"I didn't have time to ask yesterday what it felt like to film with Zhou Xinchi, and whether the reports from outside were true?" Liu Shishi was curious.

"It's not that bad. Apart from the fact that he likes to talk to the actors about the plot and roles on set and continues to do his own thing during filming, he is no different from most directors."

"I thought he would be fierce."

"He's actually okay, but there are too many negative articles about him online."

"Why don't you shave your head yet? Shouldn't Tang Seng be bald?"

"It's not yet time."

Liu Shishi looked at the yellow curtains, suddenly raised her neck, and suggested: "Brother, how about we go out and play today?"

The Golden Eagle Awards will last for three days. It opened last night, today the host awards will be presented, and tomorrow the awards related to film and television dramas will be announced.

"Where?"

"I have a strategy." She smiled like a fox stealing a chicken.

"I planned everything well before coming here. I will go to see the great art sculptures first, then go to Yuelu Academy and the Oceanarium, visit the night market, and wash my feet before coming back. Changsha is the foot capital, so there are many places to go."

"Oh, you still want to go to Yuelu Academy?"

"What? Do you look down on me?" Liu Shishi gave him a pink fist.

"Don't dare."

"Go ahead, go ahead, good brother~"

"Okay, okay, I have no objection." Lu Yuan agreed readily and pushed her dishonest hands away.

"What are you waiting for? Let's get up quickly."

Women are fairies, they can never be satisfied and they can never be filled. As he said this, he was about to get out of bed, but it was too late.

Liu Shishi turned over and sang, riding on his waist, pressing his hands firmly on both sides of the pillow, leaning over and touching his earlobe, breathing hot air.

"Brother, the night is short, just obey me."

Lu Yuan rolled his eyes. Is this how you use the phrase “good nights are short”? You little illiterate boy, even Yuelu Academy can’t save you.

"Your Majesty, I have pledged my allegiance to Buddhism and have made a promise to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. I hope Your Majesty will let me go west, and we will meet again in the next life."

"Why are there still single men and women like us in this world, unable to form couples? Why is my brother willing to stay alone by the lamp and accompany the ancient Buddha?"

"My kidneys are not feeling well today."

"What do you mean?" Liu Shishi tried to hold back her laughter.

"My waist is tired."

"Monster? Monster, my brother, I'm scared!"

"hiss!"

……

It was almost evening.

A couple was strolling along the bank of the Xiangjiang River. The boy was carrying the girl on his back, and the girl looked excited and chattered.

"Brother, do you think I can win the prize tomorrow?"

"Yes, huh~"

"Didn't you say I was light? Why are you breathing heavily?"

"It's indeed not heavy. It is my responsibility to carry you, even if this responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai."

Liu Shishi pinched him and said, "Damn it, you are as heavy as Mount Tai."

"Are you tired?"

"Tired." Lu Yuan stopped pretending. He had been carrying the girl on his back for nearly twenty minutes.

"Is it no longer possible?"

"Yes."

"How can a man say he's not good enough! I'm optimistic about you, so I'll reward you with a kiss."

"Boom!"

"Brother, come on, go ahead, go!"

"Snapped!"

Lu Yuan slapped her on the butt, saying with disgust: "Fuck you, big head ghost, if you move again I'll throw you down, and don't get close to me with your greasy mouth."

"Oh." Liu Shishi retracted her neck, puffed up her cheeks, and responded obediently.

In one hand she held a fan she had bought from a stall at the tourist attraction and fanned herself with it. In the other hand she held a string of stinky tofu and passed it to his mouth, then took a bite herself.

Lu Yuan chewed the stinky tofu, tightened her thighs, and looked to the right.

This is Fisherman’s Wharf. The tables along the riverside fence are filled with diners, and waiters are busy shuttling around.

After Tang Seng defeated the Queen of the Kingdom of Women three times in the morning, he had not rested for long before being dragged out to play by Liu Shishi.

He knew that Liu Shishi was probably nervous. After all, tomorrow would be her first time to be nominated for the Golden Eagle Award for Most Popular Actress.

And it is the biggest chance.

Just accompany her and have fun.

The first stop was to go to Orange Island to see the statue of the great man.

Originally, Liu Shishi planned to go to Yuelu Academy to receive cultural enlightenment.

As a result, I was recognized by tourists and surrounded for half an hour. Not only did I not get to visit the academy, but my travel plan was also completely messed up.

I drove around aimlessly and arrived at Fisherman's Wharf at night.

This place is a night market designed for tourists. Locals usually don't come here, but the two of them no longer have the energy to walk around the streets looking for authentic restaurants.

Stop and go along the way, tasting snacks.

Liu Shishi was feeling lazy and her legs were sore that she couldn't walk, but she didn't want to go back, so she squatted on the ground, acting pitiful and pouting like a rogue. Lu Yuan had no choice but to do the hard labor and carry her on his back.

After walking for about two more minutes, I saw a stone bench by the river.

Lu Yuan stretched out his long legs and walked forward in two steps.

"Snapped!"

"Come down."

Liu Shishi reluctantly jumped off his back, sat on the stool and took out her cell phone to reply to the message.

"Who?"

"Your sister asked me if Changsha is fun."

Lu Yuan looked at the rugged river surface, felt his arms a little sore, and sighed deeply.

"Hey~"

"What's the matter?" Liu Shishi was surprised.

"I'm thinking that when we have a child in the future, when she's old enough to run and jump, she'll insist on going shopping with us. If you can't walk and act like a scoundrel behind her, and she follows suit, what will I do? What if I have a daughter who likes to act like a spoiled brat? I won't know who to coax first."

He felt a headache when thinking about that scene: "If it's just one baby, it's fine. I'll carry you on my back and the little one in front. But if there are more than two, it will be troublesome."

"Humph!" Liu Shishi elbowed him and said shyly, "Who promised to bear your child?"

"It's just a matter of time. You were so impatient in the car yesterday that you didn't even use your raincoat."

Liu Shishi blinked her eyes, as if that was the case. She tilted her head and said uncertainly, "But I am in my safe period these days." Lu Yuan flicked her forehead and said, "This is a question of probability."

"Well, what should we do then?" She was a little worried, thinking that she had been impulsive yesterday.

Lu Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Give birth, and then I'll bring Yaoyao along. You'll be mine, and the little one will be hers."

"Pfft." Liu Shishi imagined the scene of the little guy following the two of them with a gloomy face, and she burst out laughing.

"She is unlucky to have an uncle like you."

Lu Yuan grinned: "When she was young, she worked as a farmhand for her mother. She worked hard and never complained. It is only natural for a daughter to pay off her mother's debts."

"Oh my goodness." Liu Shishi was laughing so hard that she was staggering from side to side, and WeChat happened to ring.

"Speak of the devil, here I come. Yaoyao asked you to bring her a gift."

Lu Yuan took the phone and sent a voice message: "What do you want? How about I buy you some exercise books?"

Zhou Yaoyao must have been jumping up and down anxiously over there, her tone was quite excited: "I don't want the exercise book, uncle, I don't want the exercise book, I want a plush doll, a big one, so I can hug it when I sleep at night."

"what colour?"

"pink."

"What does it look like?"

"Little Bear."

"Barcelo Bear, Strawberry Bear, or Lina."

"I want a Care Bear."

“Oh, no.”

"Ah? You're not going to buy it, but you're asking me so many questions, you bad uncle, huh."

Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow at Liu Shishi and said, "Your aunt and sister and I were sitting here bored, so your aunt asked me to tease you. Come, I'll give you a (bone), suck it~"

"Nonsense!" Liu Shishi wanted to beat him up. This man was trying to sow discord between her and Yaoyao.

On the evening of September 9, the 9th Golden Eagle Awards ceremony officially began.

A total of 168 TV series were registered for this year's Golden Eagle Awards, and more than were nominated.

In addition to the four films starring Lu Yuan, the other films include "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "The Promise of Life", "The Revolution of 1911", "The Founding of a New World", "Beijing Love Story" and "The Battle to Defend Marriage".
Compared with the previous session, this year's Golden Eagle Awards has changed the previous method of having the scope of entries first selected by an expert jury and then voted on by the audience and members of the China Television Association.

Instead, the audience, members of the China Television Artists Association, and an expert jury will vote separately, and the scores will be tabulated to determine the level and ranking of each award.

It is intended to better reflect public opinion, but in reality, it is doubtful whether the audience can truly have a say.

Tonight's hosts are Sa Beining and He Jiong. Their hosting style is like a pair of funny people, just like they are performing crosstalk.

At the beginning of the ceremony, the two sang and danced on the stage. Sa Beining said, "Do you think it is necessary for us to sing and dance? It's so tiring."

"Let me tell you, this is lively, it gets high ratings, and the audience loves to watch it," He Jiong said as he danced.

"Do you really think so?" Sa Beining turned his head and stared at the audience. The meaning was very clear: they were the protagonists.

He Jiong explained breathlessly: "The home court now belongs to the two of us, it's not their turn yet, let's have some fun first."

The two began to jump and dance enchantingly, and after a while, the party ended.

Standing in the center of the stage, He Jiong said sincerely: "Xiao Sa, I am very unhappy today. Fortunately, I have a colleague by my side who can listen to my complaints and vent my grievances."

"Really? What's wrong?"

He Jiong faced the guests with a serious expression: "I feel very unhappy. At the award ceremony two years ago, I made a promise that two years later, I would sit in the audience and receive the award for my TV series."

"Two years have passed and you're still here." Sa Beining added ruthlessly.

He Jiong choked: "I know, no need to remind me, thank you."

Sa Beining was relentless: "Not only did you fail to get a ticket for the TV drama actor category, you didn't even get nominated for the host category this year."

He Jiong was speechless and the audience burst into laughter.

He sighed, "I feel like this TV industry is unfair because it's always the same familiar faces."

The camera turned at the right time to the guests in the first row, such as Li Youbing, Zhang Guoli and others, and finally stopped on Lu Yuan.

"Hahaha!" The audience laughed. This face was so familiar.

He Jiong named names: "For example, my good friend, Lu Yuan. I have been unhappy with him for a long time. Two years ago, we were in the same position. At that time, Ouyang Xiadan and I were the hosts, and he was sitting in the audience. He won the Best Actor trophy for "The Hidden". He is still there this year, so whenever I see him now, I feel that the award is unfair."

Applause broke out. Lu Yuan smiled, stood up, clasped his hands together, and begged for mercy.

He Jiong chose to ignore it, pointed at him and teased: "He's handsome, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuan's figure appeared on the screen behind the stage. He was dressed in a suit and looked very handsome.

"So cool!" fans in the background shouted.

"Am I similar to him?" He Jiong raised his chin, trying to guide him.

“Shh~” The fans deliberately refused to buy it.

He Jiong looked like he had been shot, looking pitiful.

"I called him yesterday morning, and he took a long time to answer. He was out of breath. Later he said he had just woken up and was working out in the hotel. If you work so hard, you will have no friends."

Lu Yuan had a very natural smile on his face in the audience, but Liu Shishi bit her lip and avoided his gaze.

"I asked him to come out for dinner again, and he said he had other important plans. I believed him, but then a post appeared on Weibo in the afternoon, saying that Lu Yuan and Liu Shishi were surrounded by fans in front of Yuelu Academy for half an hour. Come on, give me an explanation. So your important plan is to visit tourist attractions with your girlfriend."

"Pfft, hahaha."

"Why?" He Jiong said unwillingly.

"The TV series he starred in had such good ratings. This year, a total of four dramas were nominated at the same time. That's not all. His movies also had high box office, including Lost in Thailand and Time Travel. The most important thing is that he is the Golden Eagle Goddess this year. Look, they are holding hands while sitting in the audience. Isn't that infuriating?"

"It's infuriating!" Sa Beining echoed.

"That's right, it's even more infuriating than the exposure of Xiao Sa and Zi Yi's relationship!" He Jiong finally got his revenge.

Sa Beining looked at him with a question mark on his face. Damn it, what does it have to do with me? Aren’t we in the same group?
"Hahaha." The audience was even happier.

Liu Shishi fell directly on Lu Yuan's shoulder. She was nominated this year for "Scarlet Heart" and could finally sit next to her boyfriend with dignity. At this moment, she covered her mouth because of He Jiong's teasing. It was nothing, she just wanted to laugh and couldn't hold it back.

This scene drove the netizens who were watching the live broadcast crazy.

He Jiong and Sa Beining were all affected, from Lu Yuan, Liu Shishi, to Li Youbing, Lin Yongjian, Hu Jun, Chen Sicheng, Tong Liya
The two of them were joking around on the stage, and VCR clips of the shortlisted male and female actors appeared on the screen at the back.

"Next, let's listen to their collective voices on the big screen."

Liu Shishi: "This is my first time to be nominated for the Golden Eagle Award."

Lu Yuan: "."

Chen Shu: "I have never been nominated for the Golden Eagle Awards, nor have I participated in it. This is my first time."

Tong Liya: “It’s my first time to be nominated.”

Lin Yongjian: "."

"."

VCR ends.

He Jiong stood side by side with Sa Beining, holding the microphone, and said: "Like in the past, tonight there will be four actors and four actresses that the audience likes, but what is different from the past is that we have opened a channel on the Internet."

He and Sa Beining joked with each other for a while.

"The first group of actor awards will be launched soon. They won glory for their country in London last August... Let us invite the award-giving guests, the captain of the Chinese gymnastics team, Chen Yibing, and everyone's favorite gymnastics world champion Feng Ji. Welcome!"

Two athletes in red gymnastics uniforms walked up the steps and stood in the center of the stage.

Compared with people in the entertainment industry, the two were obviously not good at talking and told a few jokes.

Feng Ji said that he liked watching "My Fair Princess", "Journey to the West" and "Legend of White Snake", and then Chen Yibing asked him if he knew what the three dramas had in common.

Feng Ji didn't know that the protagonists of the three plays narrated by Chen Yibing were all animals.

The scene was cold.

"Is the protagonist of "My Fair Princess" also an animal?" Feng Ji was puzzled.

Chen Yibing answered as a matter of course: "Little Swallow."

"Good!" Lu Yuan immediately clapped his hands in support.

The applause paused and the camera panned over the nominated actresses, each of whom sat upright with a nervous look on their faces.

Chen Yibing cleared his throat and revealed the first audience's favorite actress.

"Chen Shu!"
