Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 277 Disrupting the Hong Kong Film Awards Ceremony

The live stream was filled with chat messages.

"We're here for Zhou Yang; he's sure to win the award this time."

"Zhou Yang definitely deserves the Best Actor award!"

"The cast of 'Tracey'? I've never heard of this movie before, and I don't recognize anyone on the red carpet. I really look forward to Zhou Yang attending the red carpet ceremony."

"Haha, with veteran actors like Huang Dongsheng, Xu Shanzheng, Chow Yun-fat, and Wu Zhengyu in the cast this time, Zhou Yang still expects to win Best Actor? Wishful thinking!"

"Zhou Yang's fans are indeed a bit exaggerated. They've become arrogant and conceited after working alongside big shots and making a few good movies."

"Exactly, when things are going smoothly, even a pig can fly!"

"..."

Ten minutes later, it was finally the turn of the film crew of "Dying to Survive" to appear, with a Rolls-Royce parked outside the venue.

Zhou Yang and Xu Shanzheng got out of the car at the same time and stepped onto the red carpet, where fans cheered wildly!
"Zhou Yang, you're so handsome! I love you so much! Brother Yang, you're the best actor in my heart!"

Xu Shanzheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Zhou Yang, we can't walk the red carpet together anymore. You have too many fans, and I don't have a single one."

Zhou Yang said with a big smile, "Haha, I didn't expect to have so many fans in Honggang."

Shortly after, the entire cast and crew finished the red carpet event and signed their names on the autograph wall.

Xu Shanzheng and others then entered the main venue of the awards ceremony, while Zhou Yang left through a side passage and returned to the waiting area by car.

Half an hour later, the cast and crew of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" appeared. When Zhou Yang got out of the car, the audience at the scene and in the live broadcast room were momentarily stunned!
Two Zhou Yangs?!
"What's going on? Another Zhou Yang has appeared!"

"Does Brother Yang have a twin brother?"

"Impossible, I've never heard of Brother Yang having any other brothers."

"They might not have entered the venue and will walk the red carpet again for the next film crew."

"That's amazing! This is the first time I've ever seen something like that."

"..."

On the red carpet, Zhou Yang led the cast and crew of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" as they walked slowly forward, waving to fans as they walked away.

Apart from Zhou Yang, the other main cast members were all walking the red carpet for the first time, and they were nervous and unfamiliar with some of the procedures.

To take care of them, Zhou Yang thoughtfully accompanied them throughout the process, taking photos and signing autographs, and personally escorted them into the venue.

Two hours later, it was the last turn of the "Project Gutenberg" crew to appear!
When Zhou Yang reappeared, the audience was no longer as surprised as before.

Although Zhou Yang has already appeared twice, he always goes to great lengths to fulfill fans' requests for autographs whenever they ask.

After the red carpet event, Zhou Yang signed his name on the autograph wall again, marking his third signature and making him the first person in the history of the Hong Kong Film Awards to do so.

After Zhou Yang, Chow Yun-fat, and others entered the venue, Xu Shanzheng and the others hurriedly stood up to greet Chow Yun-fat.

"Brother Zheng, I watched your performance in 'Dying to Survive,' it was really good. You deserve to win Best Actor this time," Chow Yun-fat praised with a smile.

Xu Shanzheng quickly shook his head: "Brother Fa, please don't call me Xu Shanzheng. You're praising me too much. I think you played the 'painter' better."

The two praised each other, acting more like old friends than competitors.

"Haha, Chow Yun-fat and Cheng Chung are both too modest. I think they are the two most likely to win the award."

"Haha, Brother Yang must be very frustrated. There are clearly three people, so why does he seem superfluous?"

"Emmm, I feel sorry for Brother Yang. Standing next to these two big shots, he looks like a little brother..."

"Haha, Yang is also good, breaking the nomination record. He will definitely gain something." "Yes, I think it's fine no matter which of the three of them wins."

After everyone exchanged polite greetings, Chow Yun-fat, Xu Shanzheng, and Zhou Yang arrived at the central seats for Best Actor nominees, and happened to sit between Chow Yun-fat and Xu Shanzheng.

Soon, the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony began!

The first awards presented were some minor ones, such as Best Costume Design, Best Original Film Score, and Best Original Film Song.

Next, it was time for the first major award of the ceremony.

Best New Actor Award!
Five shortlisted candidates, all young faces, appeared on the screen.

The other competitors competing with Zhou Yang this time are all rising stars from Hong Kong, with Zhou Yang being the only one from mainland China.

Fans in the live stream cheered for Zhou Yang.

"The best newcomer is definitely Brother Yang; I've never even heard of the others."

"Nonsense! How could any other newcomer compare to the Hong Kong Newcomer? Hong Kong's awards will never go to you mainlanders!"

"Tch, if they didn't give it to Brother Yang, there must be some conspiracy behind it."

"Exactly! If they dare not give it to us, we will boycott the Hong Kong Film Awards!"

"..."

At this point, the envelope containing the list of award winners was finally opened by the award presenter.

They announced on the spot: "The Best Newcomer award goes to Zhou Yang, who played Lü Shouyi in the movie 'Dying to Survive'! Congratulations to Zhou Yang!!!"

The big screen also displayed a photo of Zhou Yang, who plays Lü Shouyi.

Immediately afterwards, enthusiastic applause erupted as everyone congratulated Zhou Yang, who had truly lived up to his reputation.

Xu Shanzheng and Chow Yun-fat were also very happy, and immediately hugged Zhou Yang and offered him their blessings.

Zhou Yang then went on stage and accepted the trophy representing the best newcomer from the award presenter.

Then Zhou Yang stepped forward to the microphone and began his speech: "Hello everyone, I am Zhou Yang, who played Lü Shouyi in the movie 'Dying to Survive'. First of all, I would like to thank the director and all the main creators, as well as my fans who support me. Without you, there would be no me today. Of course, winning the Best Newcomer award is not unexpected for me, because I believe that my strength is not limited to this! Thank you everyone, that concludes my speech."

This caused a sensation throughout the venue!
Zhou Yang became the first person in history to dare to make such bold remarks at the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony, which was even a bit too arrogant.

The camera panned to the celebrities in the audience, most of whom showed expressions of surprise at Zhou Yang's bold statement.

The viewers in the live stream also got excited.

"This Zhou Yang is really something else!"

"Brother Yang, can we be a little more discreet?"

"We need to show our confidence! Let Hong Kong people see the talent of mainland actors!"

"Fortunately, he didn't say anything more outrageous, like 'I want it all.'"

"..."

"Ahem, Mr. Zhou Yang seems very confident. It's a good thing for young people to be confident, but hopefully they have enough strength to back it up, otherwise they'll just become a laughing stock," host Zeng Baoyi teased.

Haha, laughter erupted from below...

Zhou Yang returned to his seat, smiled slightly, and said nothing.

Next, the awards ceremony continued, followed by a highly anticipated award, Best Film, which went to "Dying to Survive"!
Zhou Yang and the others also stood up to congratulate Wen Muye.
