Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 274: Giving You Children (Thanks to the Alliance Leader: Give You a Longer Nickname)
The award ceremony was still going on. After Gui Lunmei finished her acceptance speech, she went to be interviewed by the media.

The two hosts came on stage and started chatting again. Huang Bo comforted them: "It's okay, fairy. You have the highest box office here. In terms of audience popularity, no one can compare to you."

There was laughter from the audience, and Liu Tianxian's mouth curled up.

This is indeed the case. Among the several candidate nominees, Liu Tianxian has the highest box office and is the most well-known and popular.

After some joking, the award ceremony entered the final two major awards process, one of which was the Best Actor Award, or the Best Actor Award.

But this has nothing to do with Liu Tianxian and Fang Hong. Their task is to attend the award ceremony.

The Best Actor award was won by Andy Lau.

The last grand prize was the Best Feature Film, the award was presented by King Liu, and the winner was director Gao Qunshu of "Detective Hunter Zhang".

He is the director who made "The Message" and "Conquer".

And "Detective Hunter Zhang" was also invested by Guangxian Investment!
There were reports on the big screen about production and investment companies. I didn’t expect that Huayi, Guangxian and China Film all invested in art films.

Huayi invested in "Girlfriend Boyfriend"!
The award ceremony ended here, and what followed was a banquet. The banquet was still the usual style of the entertainment industry, with toasts and a life of decadence.

There were a wide variety of dishes on the large round tables, including nougat, pineapple cakes, cakes, chocolates and other desserts, as well as some drinks.

The drinks are printed with the Golden Horse logo.

People who know each other will chat with each other, and those who don’t know each other will just sit still.

However, the entertainment industry in Taiwan is more open than that in mainland China, so I won’t discuss that here.

Anyway, we are not allowed to take photos or videos, so they can do whatever they want.

Only those who have been shortlisted can participate here, which means they have a certain status in the entertainment industry. If not, just go home.

Fang Hong, Liu Tianxian and Zhang Songwen naturally participated. After all, they had to eat when they came, otherwise it would be a waste not to eat.

Also at their table were Wu Gang, Hao Lei, Lou Ye, Gao Qunshu, as well as some producers and behind-the-scenes creators.

We are all mainlanders. We don’t sit together with those people from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Some of them are very toxic, so it’s best to stay away from them.

Fang Hong was whispering to Liu Tianxian, "Gui Lunmei is 30 years old now. She has acted in more than plays before this. She has been trained through hard work. It's not like you can win the competition just by acting in a few plays. It's not like that. You have acted in too few films and you still need to hone your skills."

Even if this award doesn't belong to Gui Lunmei, it will belong to Hao Lei. She can't even get ahead of Liu Tianxian in the queue.

There is no competitiveness at all, and being shortlisted is already a good performance.

"She has good conditions and people always ask her to act in plays, so she has the opportunity to hone her skills," said Liu Tianxian.

This is true. Gui Lunmei's circle is too wide. Even Xu Ke has contacted her twice. Some actors don't even have the chance to hone their skills.

"Take your time. It's not like you can't act now. It's okay to practice for a few more years." Fang Hong said.

"If I don't win an award by the time I'm 30, I'll just go with the flow and give up." Liu Tianxian set a goal for herself.

She doesn't care if she can't even reach thirty, because a woman's most youthful and energetic years are before thirty.

"Then where are you going?" Fang Hong asked curiously.

Liu Tianxian leaned closer and said playfully, "Do you want me to give birth to children for you?"

"We want a boy." Fang Hong said.

Liu Tianxian leaned back, with a scrutinizing look in her eyes, and picked it up.

"My Goddess, are you still upset about not winning the award?" Hao Lei put her hands on her chin.

The others also turned their eyes to her, and seeing the two of them whispering, they couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"No, I just feel regretful." Liu Tianxian responded.

"You can't force it. Even if you have a good work, if your competitors are too strong that year, you won't get it. If your work is not so good, and your competitors are too weak that year, you might get it. Awards depend on luck and the preferences of the judges. There are many factors that influence it, including politics and ideology."

These words were said by Gao Qunshu. He talked a lot, and sounded like a know-it-all.

"Thank you, Director Gao. I know. I will work hard to improve myself." Liu Tianxian said politely.

"Don't worry about those things. The Golden Horse Awards are nothing great. What matters is acting well." Liang Jing said this very casually, as if she didn't take the award too seriously.

She is a literary soldier.

Everyone at this table is from the mainland, and they somehow feel a sense of closeness in this place, so they speak with less guard.

Liu Tianxian also chatted with them smoothly, and the way she talked and laughed seemed that she was very used to such occasions.

Although it was their first time socializing, they were all good at communication. In this circle, those who don't have the skill to make friends would feel embarrassed to say hello to others.

"The principal doesn't seem to be very talkative." Wu Gang leaned over to talk.

"I generally don't like to interrupt other people. It's impolite." Fang Hong looked at the man.

"Oh, this is my business card, take it, Principal."

Wu Gang took out a business card and handed it over with both hands: "My contact information is on it. You can contact me if you have any questions."

Fang Hong took it and took a look. There was an agency and a phone number on it.

The intention couldn't be more obvious.

People also have their own aspirations. If they didn’t have them, they wouldn’t hype themselves up or get face lifts.

Think about it, this world is quite wonderful. An actor who is active in both drama and film and television, and has won the highest award in drama, is pursuing worldly money.

Liu Tianxian, who relies on her looks and fans, is pursuing illusory honor.

The more you can't get something, the more you want it.

While they were talking, Huang Bo finished his work and came over with a glass of wine: "Drinking!"

"You are such a busy man!" Liang Jing teased.

She is quite familiar with Huang Bo. Huang Bo starred in the movie "Killing" directed by her husband, and she also played a supporting role in it. "Oh, it's not easy to be a host again, so why not show off your skills?"

Huang Bo said this proudly, and then laughed, "Just kidding, just kidding."

"You were right. I will come again next year." Liu Tianxian joked.

"You should drink two glasses of wine as punishment." Fang Hong chimed in.

"That's right." Hao Lei snorted.

This happened just at the award ceremony. Huang Bo teased them in various ways, saying this one would win an award and that one would win an award, but none of them got one.

"My bad, I'll drink two glasses of wine as punishment."

Huang Bo picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then poured himself another glass and drank it generously, and said: "If you can be nominated again next year, you will definitely win the award."

"You still said."

Hao Lei stood up, bursting out with the aura of a big sister.

Huang Bo was so scared that he ran away with his neck shrunk, looking so disgusting.

It was just a joke, and everyone present just laughed it off and didn't take it seriously.

While everyone was eating and chatting, Liu Tianwang came again and greeted everyone: "Hello! Principal."

The last two words were said to Fang Hong, who nodded in response.

"The Golden Horse Awards chairman remembers us!" Hao Lei spoke directly, almost jokingly.

"It's mainly because I'm too busy. If there's anything I haven't done well, I'll personally make it up to you."

King Liu raised his glass: "Come, let's have a drink."

This table is full of mainland directors and actors, all of whom are relatives, so I came here to socialize.

Don't think that King Liu, with his status, shouldn't be like this.

His influence is limited to his fans and Hong Kong and Taiwan, and he is nothing in the North.

As I said, every artist who can make it big has his own circle, and it is difficult to break out of the circle and integrate into it.

King Liu has put a lot of thought into this aspect, as can be seen from his trajectory.

Nothing else, the Hong Kong film industry is already in its twilight years.

The banquet ended like this without any trouble. You don't provoke others and others don't provoke you. It's like keeping to yourself.

Fang Hong doesn't socialize with others. It's not necessary for him with his status.

People from Hong Kong and Taiwan rarely invite him to socialize, and they know there is no need for that. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that they don't care about Hong Kong and Taiwan at all.

Some people have heard about Emperor Entertainment Group.

Liu Tianxian was a runner-up in this award ceremony. After flying back to Beijing the next day, she lay at home in a bad mood.

There are many bad reasons, such as Zeng!
It is December now, and this month happens to be the peak period for promotions of major movies, which relieves some of the pressure on Liu Tianxian.

"1942" has been released for a few days, but the box office is not very ideal.

首日29日只有2555万，第30日到12月2日票房表现还好，每天有个三四千万。

But after a few days, the box office was suddenly cut in half to only around 10 million, which is not ideal.

This is a good movie. Everyone who has seen it has nothing to say about it. It also has a high Douban score. However, it is too heavy and I can’t bear to watch it.

As for movies of this period, you only need to watch them in the next few days. If they are good, they are good. If they are not good, they are not good. You said you want to wait for Christmas or New Year's Day for a turnaround.

That's too long ago and unrealistic.

The film's box office performance was not ideal, causing Huayi's stock to suffer another blow. Within two trading days from December 12, Huayi's market value evaporated by 3 billion yuan.

It has suffered several consecutive hits this year. If it continues to evaporate like this, all the stocks will evaporate. The market value was originally less than 10 billion yuan.

The main reason is that the total investment of this movie is as high as 2.5 million yuan. Judging from the current situation, it is definitely a loss on the books. This is the first work in which Feng Kuazi has suffered a loss.

The most important thing is that Feng Pants’ cards are no longer effective.

This is the most damaging to Huayi. The film industry has always been supported by Feng Kuazi.

I still remember that Feng Kuazi once said to netizens: "I can shoot anything, and everything I shoot is a box office hit. Who can beat me in this regard? I am unique and invincible."

Listen, how arrogant! This is a lesson.

However, the failure of this movie also made Feng Kuazi say another thing: "The movies I made casually sold 4 million in a week, but the movies I made seriously didn't sell. This made me very confused."

This is still saying that Chinese audiences are rubbish!

To be honest, this movie was a big blow to Feng Kuzi's confidence. He even said, "I'm tired and don't want to make movies anymore."

Only after being comforted and encouraged by Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang did he come out.

It seems that people's hearts are fragile, and these old men who have been in the underworld don't seem to have a strong mentality.

What's more, Liu Tianxian doesn't seem to have a strong mentality!
Yutu did not laugh or ridicule, but remained silent. It is best not to watch this kind of movie.

Because it's a good movie, if you satirize others, the audience will definitely criticize you back, and it can inexplicably provide the other party with heat and emotions.

It would be bad if we had some revenge movie watching.

Although most people follow blindly, there are also many rational people. Most of them are silent, but they have strong explosive power!
There are rumors that the movie "1942" was not originally approved, but it was approved after they used their connections. In order to repay this favor, Feng Kuazi became the chief director of the 2014 Spring Festival Gala.

It's just said, I don't know if it's true or not.
