After the Golden Rooster, Golden Image and Golden Horse awards ceremonies over the years, netizens and fans of each award will basically have a big fight over the results of the awards.

This time's Golden Horse is no exception and is particularly fierce.

As soon as the Best Actor and Best Actress candidates were announced, most people approved of Zhang Ziyi. Regardless of Zhang Ziyi's style of doing things, her performance in "The Grandmaster" was obvious to all.

Only Lu Yuan and Li Kangsheng shared the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, which caused dissatisfaction among many people.

Because before this, most people had never heard of this person, let alone the movie "Outing" starring him.

Compared to this, double yolks are no big deal.

It's not that double yolks are not possible, netizens just can't understand how a person who suddenly appeared could defeat well-known actors such as Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Tony Leung Ka-fai.

Is it just because the other party is a Taiwanese actor?

In addition to the award results, several videos of the award ceremony also exploded the Internet in a very short time with the promotion of iQiyi, PPS, NetEase, and Youku.

# Cai Kangyong challenges Huang Bo: Golden Horse Awards is my home, not yours#
#Huang Bo criticized Cai Kangyong, saying that he had only seen people riding horses, but never seen horses riding people#
#At the 50th Golden Horse Awards ceremony, Lu Yuan rarely looked unhappy#

#Liu Tianwang's Sichuan Opera face-changing, from solemn to cheerful#
Never underestimate netizens’ curiosity about and ability to interpret politics. Even if Cai Kangyong’s agency uses a military of internet operatives to whitewash the issue, it will be of no avail.

"What does Huang Bo mean by teasing Kevin Tsai at the Golden Horse Awards?"

"Because Kang Yong teased him at the beginning, it was just a return gesture, there was no special meaning, it was just to warm up the atmosphere. Don't make a fuss about it, over-interpret it, it will make you look sensitive."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't you see Lu Yuan's face suddenly become stern, and Liu Dehua and the others looked embarrassed? When have you ever seen Lu Yuan's face become sullen in public? Isn't this obvious?"

"I don't think it's that serious. Cai Kangyong was just teasing and embarrassing Huang Bo to achieve the effect of the show. I really don't think it's necessary to over-interpret it. Even someone as sensitive as me doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.

Cai Kangyong is the host, Huang Bo is the award presenter. Of course, the host will be the master here, and the guest is the guest. Both of them performed very well. As for Lu Yuan and others, these people have experienced many ups and downs. How can they show such obvious emotions on their faces? You who can understand the movie emperor are really strong. "

"People should speak according to their own opinions. Shouldn't the host consider where the guests are from and their own identities when speaking? The guests are originally from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong. Even in sports competitions, there are still home and away games. Which host or referee would say this is your home, not mine? Is this appropriate even as a joke?"

"Fuck, why are there so many stupid people? Lu Yuan pointed out directly in his speech that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are one family. He would say this for no reason. Can you use your pig brains?"

Of course, some netizens have some strange focuses.

"Oh my god, Lu Yuan actually got angry. My husband is so fierce and manly. What a damn masculine charm."

"Oh, oh, oh, I didn't even cry when Lu Yuan abused me."

"."

The next morning, Taipei, hotel.

The room was dark. As the urgent ringing of the phone sounded, Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

After the award ceremony last night, the organizers held a dinner as usual.

As one of the new movie emperors, he is also at the top of the pyramid of the Chinese-language film industry. He holds a lot of resources. His colleagues are very attentive and come up to him one by one to toast him.

It was hard to refuse the kindness, so even though he only took a small sip from each person, he still drank a lot.

As a result, all flights originally scheduled for the evening were cancelled and rescheduled to this morning.

The phone was still ringing, so he picked it up and saw that it was Han Sanping.

"Mr. Han!"

"Lu Yuan, are you still in Taipei?"

“Still in Taipei.”

"You did a great job last night. It's a great example of a cross-strait family. Many leaders are praising you today. The Film Bureau is not convenient to contact you directly, so they asked me to call you."

"Well, thank you for your concern, it's nothing, it's just my job. In that kind of situation, facing the Chinese people from all over the world, I think anyone would be unable to hold back."

"Not necessarily. Our Golden Horse winner didn't say a word when she went on stage. La Peikang was just talking about it on the phone. No wonder she won the Best Actress award. She cried quite sincerely when she gave her acceptance speech."

Lu Yuan smacked his lips and didn't respond. He didn't care about the Golden Horse Awards and he didn't have any resources with the filmmakers on the other side. Zhang Ziyi was different. She probably only had her eyes on the Grand Slam.

"Wait for you to come back and have dinner together."

"Ok."

After chatting for a few words, Lu Yuan hung up the phone and was about to take a nap when his cell phone rang again.

"Hey, Brother Bo, something's up."

"I'm going downstairs to have breakfast, do you want to join us?"

Lu Yuan yawned and looked at the time on his phone. It was 8:30 in the morning. "Okay, are you coming downstairs yet? If not, why don't you just come to my place and wait for me to wash my face."

"Uh, I just went downstairs. I'm too lazy to go back up. I'll wait for you downstairs."

"Row!"

Lu Yuan put down his phone, walked into the bathroom in his slippers, took a shower, and came out after a while wearing a short-sleeved shirt.

The reason why Taiwan is known as the Treasure Island is not only because of its resources, but also because of its climate. The four seasons are like spring, and the weather is always warm. The temperature will not be cooler until December.

If I were in Beijing, I would have to wear a down jacket by now.

When Lu Yuan went downstairs, he saw Huang Bo standing at the door of the hotel. He was wearing sunglasses, holding a mobile phone, and his old face was wrinkled with smile.

"Brother Bo, what are you looking at? You seem to be in a good mood. Is your sister-in-law pregnant again?"

Lu Yuan joked, but he could roughly guess the reason in his heart.

When Huang Bo challenged Cai Kangyong last night, he was neither humble nor arrogant. He maintained his composure and deftly resolved the awkwardness with a few words. As long as the other party's studio is not stupid and can guide public opinion a little, he will definitely win the favor of a large number of netizens.

A character with high emotional intelligence will also be more stable. Regardless of whether there will be risks in the long run, the audience's popularity will inevitably skyrocket in the short term.

"Don't talk nonsense." Huang Bo rolled his eyes and asked, "Didn't you watch the news?"

"No, I don't have time to check my phone. I came back home feeling dizzy last night, and I answered a few phone calls. Then I fell asleep. I slept until President Han and you called. By the way, are the reports here unfriendly to us?"

"Uh, I don't know. I haven't paid attention to it."

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows, knowing what was going on, and rubbed his stomach: "Where should we eat?"

"Follow me." Huang Bo turned and left, obviously very familiar with this place.

Two grown men were walking down the street, with a dozen paparazzi following behind them.

The hotel is located on Huaining Street, not far from the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall.

When Lu Yuan came yesterday, he was busy preparing to attend the award ceremony and didn't pay much attention. He just simply walked around the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and took a few photos.

Now I have some free time to take a look at the local customs and practices. As far as I can see, except for a few high-rise buildings near Taipei 101, most of the other buildings are a bit old because they were built in the s and s.

In terms of roads, there are no wide roads and numerous overpasses like those in China. The widest main road has only three lanes.

Many streets are one-way, and there are countless small streets and alleys, so there are a huge number of motorcycles on the streets.

The bustling crowds, the hot biker girls, the various hawking sounds, the full atmosphere of fireworks.

Huang Bo led him into an alley and stopped in front of a breakfast shop that looked bright and clean.

Taiwan's food style was influenced by Japan and the West in the early years, but generally speaking, it is still Fujian style, light and less greasy.

The store is divided into Chinese and Western styles. Lu Yuan looked through the glass partition and looked at the toast, hamburgers, sandwiches, teppanyaki noodles, etc.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned around, went to the far right, and ordered a bowl of white rice porridge and a portion of steamed dumplings.

I saw that the store was selling tea eggs with a fragrant smell, so I asked the waiter to bring me two. Yes, Taiwanese people really like to eat tea eggs.

"You eat so lightly?"

Huang Bo was holding a plate of oyster noodles, sprinkled with coriander, chopped green onions, a small spoonful of yellow sauce, and a few thin slices of meat.

"I drank too much last night and don't have much appetite."

Lu Yuan held a tea egg in his hand. There were cracks on the surface of the eggshell. He tapped it lightly against the corner of the table and peeled it open along the crack, revealing the delicate egg white.

The brown lines on the egg white are clearly visible, indicating that the egg is very flavorful.

He took a bite and found it tasted good, with the sauce permeating the entire egg white. Apart from being a bit more expensive, everything else was almost the same as in mainland China, not as fantastic as the locals boasted on the Internet.

Huang Bo glanced at the paparazzi outside the window and laughed, "You must be doing this on purpose. The reporters here don't like you anyway. They say you don't know how to be grateful for the award. It will be interesting if the photo of the Golden Horse Award winner eating tea eggs makes the headlines. I don't know how they will describe you."

In 2011, a well-known food expert said that he could not afford tea eggs, which caused an uproar in public opinion on the Internet.

Lu Yuan stared at him straight in the eye: "Didn't you just say that you haven't read the news here?"

"Ah, this..." Huang Bo blurted out, and quickly changed the subject. He coughed and asked, "Li An asked you to talk alone for a long time last night. What did you talk about?"

"What else could it be? Just complaining." Lu Yuan put the remaining egg yolk aside.

"Li An said that he had not expected Cai Kangyong to say that, and promised to make Cai Kangyong apologize in the media, and hoped that I would try not to mention this matter again when I was interviewed by the media."

Huang Bo said: "Director Li An probably overthought it. After a night of fermentation, this matter has gone viral in China. It's no use for Cai Kangyong to apologize. All his dirty laundry has been exposed. His reputation in China is basically ruined, and even Kangxi Is Coming is being boycotted."

"Oh, what else does he have?" Lu Yuan was slightly surprised.

If Cai Kangyong is finished, then the "Kangxi Comes Here" introduced by Tencent Video will also be finished. Without this variety show, the variety show section of Tencent Video will be basically scrapped.

"They said all kinds of things, including low emotional intelligence, a broken personality, being outspoken, sexual orientation, and the fact that he had offended Liu Dehua in the past."

"Tell me more specifically." Lu Yuan was curious.

"During the 40th Golden Horse Awards, weren't Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Andy Lau nominated for Best Actor at the same time? Tony Leung Chiu-wai won Best Actor at the Hong Kong Film Awards earlier that year, and probably thought he had little chance of winning the Golden Horse again, so he didn't go, while Andy Lau did."

"Tsai Kang-yong was the host of that year's Golden Horse Awards. He kept bringing up the topic around Andy Lau, hinting at everything, and finally making Andy Lau feel confident that he would win the Best Actor award. But when the result was announced, it was Tony Leung Chiu-wai who didn't even show up. Andy Lau was so angry that his face went black. He refused to attend the celebration banquet and chose to attend a party held by his fans instead."

"The two of them started a feud."

Lu Yuan held the spoon and recalled what happened yesterday: "No wonder when Liu Dehua and Cai Kangyong were co-hosting on the stage last night, Cai Kangyong's smile looked a little forced."

"Hey." Huang Bo laughed.

"I received news that the executive committee of this year's Golden Horse Awards did not intend to put Cai Kangyong on the waiting list at the beginning because they were worried that Liu Dehua would not come. Fortunately, Liu Dehua took care of the face of the Golden Horse Awards."

Lu Yuan shook his head: "It would be great if he could just be a good host, but he insisted on talking about topics that he shouldn't talk about. It's his own fault. Who does he think he is?"

"Isn't it?"

Beijing, midday sun.

The Golden Horse Awards incident caused an uproar on the Internet, but Hou Hongliang had no time to pay attention to it.

In the conference room, on the table was a contract for Noon Sunshine, Yuanfang Media and PPS to jointly invest in "Nirvana in Fire".

Hou Hongliang signed his name swiftly, then raised his head and looked at Lu Jing opposite him.

"Mr. Lu, happy cooperation!"

"It's a pleasure working with you." Lu Jing shook hands with him. After receiving instructions from her cousin, she had been in contact with Noon Sunshine.

Because Kong Sheng directed "My Love from the Star", Hou Hongliang was very clear about the potential of PPS, so the negotiations went smoothly.

Looking at the contract, Hou Hongliang let out a sigh of relief.

In early summer last year, when he was still the general manager of Shanying Production Company, he got a fictional online novel "Nirvana in Fire" recommended by netizens.

Since 2011, it has become a trend in the film and television industry to scramble for the copyrights of various online novels for IP development.

However, he was somewhat disapproving.

"Silent Oath" and "Crossing the Guandong" filmed by Shanying are both real main theme films.

He has never considered adapting online novels into TV series, and Shanying has so many good scripts waiting for him to screen.

At the beginning of this year, the market for mainstream films was sluggish. He had to go on a business trip and felt bored after the several-hour flight, so he took out "Nirvana in Fire", which he had not had time to read carefully, and began to read it.

I soon fell into it.

"Langya Bang" perfectly combines the court and the underworld, with intrigues and the spirit of the underworld. Of course, there are shortcomings as well, such as the power struggles are too naive and cannot be thought about carefully.

But in his opinion, it was just right.

Audiences watch TV dramas for fun, and the political schemes cannot be too profound.

If it's like "The Ming Dynasty 1566", where the audience can't understand it at all, it would probably be difficult to save the situation even if we invite Lu Yuan, the top star of domestic dramas, to star in it.

Seeing Hou Hongliang in a daze, Lu Jing asked, "Boss Hou, do you have any target for the actor who will play Mei Changsu?"

Hou Hongliang subconsciously looked at Kong Sheng. After exchanging glances, he replied, "We have several candidates at the moment, Huang Xiaoming, Hu Jian, and Nie Yuan. But we haven't made a decision yet. What does Mr. Lu mean?"

Lu Jing twirled the pen in his hand, his eyes burning with anger: "Let's hold a vote on PPS."
