Chapter 688 [114] The final winner of Best Actor!

"The winner of the 26th China Film Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress is——"

Zhang Ziyi, who was in charge of presenting the awards, smiled slightly and said loudly to a woman in the audience, "Liu Jialing, Curiosity Kills the Cat!"

Wow!
There was cheering from the whole audience.

"Congratulations!"

clap clap clap!
Warm applause broke out and the camera turned to Liu Jialing who was sitting there.

She jumped up excitedly, hugged the director beside her, and cried with joy.

Liu Yifei ran with the team again.

But she didn't actually gain nothing this time. In the Hundred Flowers Awards that just ended a few days ago, she won the Best Actress award for "A World Without Thieves". In fact, Liu Yifei was quite happy for a while.

But what can I say about this award? Its presence in the film industry is getting lower and lower, and Chen Yu has won two.

The future will be ruined by capital. Even baby can be crowned the queen. From then on, this award has become a joke in the industry.

It's just a water award now. Although Liu Yifei is happy, she knows that this Best Actress trophy is not very presentable.

And she just lost the Golden Rooster Award, so this might obviously be a consolation prize not long ago.

As for Chen Yu, he didn’t even get the Best Actor award this time.

It can be seen that the Golden Rooster is determined not to give him this trophy.

"The Best Actor Award is here!"

Liu Yifei held Chen Yu's hand. When the Best Actress trophy was awarded, she still felt a little disappointed in her heart.

Although I know the probability of winning is low and the result will be the same even if I go to the scene, I still have a sense of luck in my heart.

At this time, Chen Yu's parents, as well as Liu Xiaoli and others, were also sitting aside, watching this year's Golden Rooster Gala. Everyone was obviously aware of the friction between the Golden Rooster and Chen Yu.

"Please welcome the award presenter, Huazai Liu Dehua!"

The host Zhang Guoli was shouting as Huazai, looking handsome in a suit, walked out from the award ceremony channel.

The whole audience screamed enthusiastically again.

"call……"

Liu Dehua first let out a long breath, then held the award envelope in his hand and supported the podium, with a hint of nervousness on his face, saying: "As the presenter of this award, I am really under pressure!"

I don’t know whether he was aware of the conflict between Chen Yu and Jin Ji, or whether he saw what the shortlisted people said.

Because apart from Fu Dalong from "Tengu" and Li Yixiang from "Chicken Dog Unrest", the other four candidates for Best Actor are all very famous and capable.

"Tokyo Trial" Liu Songren, Chen Yu, Jet Li, and Cheng Long!
This nomination is bound to be controversial and will cause a lot of discussion online.

This year's Golden Rooster Awards was indeed a hot topic. Although the sponsorship atmosphere and other aspects were not as good as in previous years, both the ratings and the level of discussion were the highest in history.

Countless netizens are now sitting in front of their TVs or computers, watching the awarding of the next few major awards of this year's Golden Rooster Awards.

"Let's look at the big screen first!"

"The nominees for the Best Actor at the 26th China Film Golden Rooster Awards are—"

Jackie Chan, Chen Yu, Jet Li... wonderful scenes from movies jumped out from the big screen at the scene.

The movie that Chen Yu was nominated for Best Actor was "A World Without Thieves". The big screen showed the scene where he lied to Sha Gen Wang Li that she had a terminal illness. His acting was indeed the highlight of the entire movie.

A show within a show!

Because this part in the movie was performed by Chen Yu, he had to act out a scene where Wang Bo was acting.

This is a bit of a test of the actor's understanding.

"So nervous!"

“After seeing this shortlist, I’m actually glad that I wasn’t shortlisted!”

Liu Dehua pointed at six people on the big screen, five of whom had real-time images, but Chen Yu's avatar was black because he was not present.

"Because I can't beat any of these six people!"

"Hahaha!"

Many people in the audience laughed.

Everyone knew he was joking.

"Let me check for everyone first to see who it is!"

Liu Dehua secretly opened the envelope, took a look, and his eyes widened instantly: "Wow, it's him?"

Buzz!
At this moment, Chen Yu's cell phone suddenly vibrated, accompanied by the sound of an incoming call.

He narrowed his eyes, then stood up, walked aside and picked up his cell phone.

As for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, although Chen Yu wanted to take a look at the final winner, he actually didn't have any other thoughts in his mind, so he directly answered the phone and walked to the window sill.

Liu Dehua's voice came out from the TV: "Guess who it is?"

"what--"

There was an overwhelming booing from the entire audience.

"Okay, I won't keep you in suspense!"

Liu Dehua suddenly straightened his appearance, then smiled at the microphone and said word by word: "The winner of the 26th China Film Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor is Chen Yu from A World Without Thieves!"

"Wow!"

Liu Yifei stood up suddenly and looked at the TV in disbelief.

Liu Xiaoli was also stunned. Shen Xiaoqin asked in confusion, "No...didn't you say you had a falling out with Jinji?"

"Compromise?"

"Or someone has spoken!"

Having been the leader of a quasi-listed company for several years, Chen Peidong did have some foresight, not to mention that Chen Yu was still on the phone.

Receiving a call before the award ceremony is a very delicate moment.

"Honey, you won the Best Actor award!"

"Second seal!"

Liu Yifei shouted at Chen Yu, who had just finished a call and smiled, "Yes, Teacher Chang told me!"

"Ok?"

"Teacher Chang?"

"Yes, I have to go to the study. The production team will call me later!"

"What's going on?"

Liu Yifei didn't understand at all, but after Liu Dehua finished speaking, there was already warm applause at the Golden Rooster Awards.

Best Actor, Chen Yu!
And it’s the second time that Chen Yu has won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor. He is the only Chinese male actor to have received this honor.

The last time was three years ago, when he and Xia Yu won it together.

This time, he alone defeated Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Liu Songren, and even Fu Dalong, who was supposed to win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor next year for "Tengu".

"Please invite Mr. Wang Zhonglei, the general manager of Huayi Brothers Pictures, to accept this award on behalf of Chen Yu!"

Wang Zhonglei, wearing a suit, walked onto the stage and took the trophy from Chen Yu from Liu Dehua.

"Thank you. I would like to thank the Golden Rooster organizers and the judges on behalf of Brother Yu!"

"He's filming, he really doesn't have time to come!"

"Shadow!"

"Don't think that giving the Best Actor award can make up for the fact that "Taken" and "Departures" were not nominated!"

"That's right, Chen Bensheng in "Departures" is the best role for the Best Actor award!"

"The Golden Rooster is getting scared now!"

"No, he knew that he was going to be finished, so he gave Brother Yu the Best Actor award to make up for it!"

"..."

There were still many fans cursing on the Internet. At this time, Wang Zhonglei had just walked off the stage with Chen Yu's Golden Rooster Award trophy, but Zhang Guoli came to Cheng Long's side and asked, "Brother, do you have something to say about not winning the award?"

"Haha, no, I already won it last year. I want to give Brother Yu a call and have him give a personal acceptance speech!"

"Does everyone want to hear it?"

Zhang Guoli suddenly handed the microphone to the front of the scene. "Think!"

The whole audience was roaring.

"Brother, did you hear that?"

"Haha, OK, I'll call him right away!"

As he spoke, Cheng Long took out his mobile phone and dialed Chen Yu's number. Chen Peidong shook his head while watching the live broadcast, and Liu Xiaoli also laughed.

Liu Yifei already understood and also knew why Chen Yu wanted to go to the study.

"pass!"

Cheng Long pointed at his cell phone and turned on the speakerphone.

"Hey, big brother!"

Chen Yu's voice came out clearly from the phone, and Cheng Long immediately laughed and said, "Brother Yu——"

"Hey, big brother, just call me Yuzi!"

"Yuzi, did you watch the Golden Rooster Gala today?"

Cheng Long made a strange expression and signaled everyone to be quiet.

"No, I'm editing a film..."

"Haha, I forgot, you are Director Chen now, have you finished filming your first movie as a director?"

"Yes, we just finished shooting!"

“Congratulations, and I wish you great sales!”

Cheng Long had a smile on his face, but the next second he said, "Double happiness, do you know what the other happiness is?"

"I'm calling you from the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony right now!"

"what?"

Chen Yu was surprised. Zhang Guoli was already there, saying, "Brother Yu, I'm Zhang Guoli!"

"Hello, Teacher Guo Li!"

"Hello, congratulations, you won the Best Actor Award at the 26th China Film Golden Rooster Awards. Do you have anything to say to the audience here and in front of the TV?"

"It was so sudden. I never thought I would win the award!"

Chen Yu's words were true, and Cheng Long immediately said, "You got it by defeating Jet and me, so you owe us a meal!"

"Ha ha!"

There was laughter from the whole audience.

"Okay, I will definitely make it up to you!"

"Then give your acceptance speech!"

Cheng Long winked and Zhang Guoli smiled, "We all want to hear it. This is your second time winning the Golden Rooster Award. It's the first time in history that a male actor has won it twice!"

"Thank you, thank you to the organizers, and thank you to my alma mater, the Central Academy of Drama. I never thought I would receive this award!"

"Thank you!"

"Your acceptance speech is too short. Say more!"

Before Cheng Long finished speaking, Zhang Guoli beside him had already started laughing and quickly hugged Cheng Long: "Alright, big brother, you see Director Zhang and the others are anxious, the next Best Director award has to be presented!"

The camera immediately turned to Zhang Yimou, who was smiling with wrinkles on his face, and he quickly waved his hands.

"Oh oh oh, okay, then Brother Yu, let's talk next time!"

"Okay, big brother, let's talk next time!"

click!
After the call ended, Cheng Long put away his phone with a reluctant look on his face, and the award ceremony continued.

The online discussion became more heated because of this sudden episode.

"Damn it, I've been fooled. Chen Yu doesn't have time to participate in the Golden Rooster Awards!"

"Listen to what he's saying. It's obvious that Jin Ji saw that he couldn't handle the situation anymore, so he asked Cheng Long to be the peacemaker!"

"That shouldn't be the case. I don't think there is any conflict between Jin Ji and Chen Yu at all."

"Shit, this must be a script!"

"Look at what Chen Yu said just now. He thanked the organizer and his alma mater, but he didn't thank the judges!"

“Haha, it seems like that!”

"It should be Jinji's emergency PR. Chen Yu probably doesn't want to completely break off relations with him. Cheng Long is the best person to be the middleman!"

"It must be so!"

"So what should we do now? Should we still spray the golden chicken?"

"Spray, you Golden Chicken idiot!"

"Golden Rooster Idiot +1!"

"Golden Rooster Idiot +2!"

"Golden Rooster Idiot +10086!"

"..."

Many times, netizens are indeed very smart.

This was indeed a script that had been planned in advance. The publicity and promotion department put pressure on the Golden Rooster organizers, and they finally came up with this method, which has calmed down this farce during this period; although there are still criticisms online, with people saying things like "there is a shady deal" and "you are an idiot," etc.

But at least the anger value was not so full, and Chen Yu and Jin Ji both took a step back.

The Golden Rooster Award gave Chen Yu the Best Actor Award, and through Cheng Long as the peacemaker, Chang Li also said a lot of good things to Chen Yu.

In the end, it ended with the above ending.

"Golden Rooster compromises!"

“This is the first time I’ve seen this!”

Liu Yifei looked at Chen Yu who was walking down the stairs, but Chen Yu shook his head: "It's the organizers who are under pressure. In fact, this matter has nothing to do with the organizers. It's all the fault of the judges!"

"From the very beginning when the registration was restricted to the final shortlist, it was all their doing!"

"So that's why you didn't thank them?"

"I'm not thanking them for anything. I'm already very polite by not scolding them!"

Chen Yu curled his lips in annoyance. Liu Yifei also felt that the Golden Rooster Awards was really wronged. However, the Golden Rooster Awards deserved to be scolded. It was because they reformed the judging mechanism that caused such a joke.

"Will you still participate next year?"

Liu Yifei blinked and looked at Chen Yu. Chen Yu knew that she was obsessed with this actress, so he smiled and said, "Let's talk about it later. Let's see how you perform!"

"What do you mean by watching my performance?"

"I definitely won't get the Best Actor trophy. I begged for two Golden Rooster trophies like this, let alone three. So it doesn't really matter if I participate in the competition in the future. As for you..."

Before Chen Yu could say anything else, Liu Yifei had already picked up the pillow and threw it at him.

"To be honest, I really don't know what next year will be like!"

Chen Yu took the pillow and said, "Who knows what these guys will do next? If next year is going to be the same as this year, or even worse, I'll go to hell!"

Whoever wants to wade into this muddy water can do so. Anyway, Chen Yu doesn't want to talk any more with these people.

"Yeah, well, let's talk about it next year!"

Liu Yifei felt a little melancholy, and at this moment, on TV, the biggest award of this year's Golden Rooster Award, the Best Feature Film, finally welcomed its owner.

Best Feature Film - "Tengu", "Myth"!
The best director awards just now were given to Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang.

Two double yolk eggs.

This time, the Golden Rooster Awards have achieved the ultimate in balance, with all nominated films winning awards to varying degrees.

"Tokyo Trial" won the Best Screenplay Award!
I have to say that the judges were really capable. Apart from criticizing Chen Yu, they really followed the general policy of the Golden Rooster Awards.

"Okay, I have to go work out!"

He has to develop Bruce Lee's physique within a month because he will have to join the filming crew starting next month.

The period from December to before the Chinese New Year was the time when Chen Yu filmed "Bruce Lee".
