Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 76 It’s still you, you really know how to have fun!
The Chinese have a habit of making up for what they lack.

In the field of traditional Chinese medicine and diet, it is called "like cures like".

By extension, applying this to Feng Xiaogang: the more you lack, the more you care about it!
Is Feng Xiaogang successful?
Of course!
I started as an art director in the 1980s, learning by practicing on the set.

Today, Feng's number one director has single-handedly created the Spring Festival box office craze. While his signature Lunar New Year comedy films have made many actors famous, he has also made great contributions to Huayi's position as the leading private enterprise in the film and television industry.

The wife of the poor was replaced by Xu Fan,

He was a playboy and a womanizer,

While the red flag at home remains standing, he also generously stated:

"Anyway, we have men in our family, so if anyone falls under our gun, I won't suffer any loss."

Compared with Gu Changwei, who is being annoyed by his wife Jiang Wenli, Feng Xiaogang can be said to be living the life that men most desire!
However, facing his former benefactor Wang Shuo, he recalled his humble attitude at the time.

Feng Xiaogang thought, haven't I worked so hard for so long just to straighten my back which was bent at the beginning?

As a result, his slightly raised attitude was immediately ridiculed by Wang Shuo and others.

In addition, his own works have always been regarded by public opinion as "vulgar and market-pleasing", which has led Feng Xiaogang to attach great importance to recognition from official awards!

When I learned that the Huabiao Awards judges publicly stated that they would revise the previous selection rules and embrace the market.

Feng Xiaogang wished he could pour dishwashing liquid into his anus, and blow bubbles and fart at the judges.

Damn it, I, Gangzi, will stand up from now on!

"Director Feng! I would like to congratulate you in advance on winning the Huabiao Awards."

Seeing Feng Xiaogang's teeth chattering more authentically than his niece's, Zhen Jiecheng understood immediately and offered his sincere blessings.

"Hey! The awards haven't been given out yet, so who can say for sure?"

Hearing this, Feng Xiaogang's mouth widened even more.
The top-notch looks are set against uneven gums. Damn it, Zhen Jiecheng subconsciously wants to take a step back!

"No, no, no, it's not that Uncle Ge has a mole on his head, isn't it obvious?"

Zhen Jiecheng shook his head as he spoke. In order to get out of the situation as quickly as possible, he simply dumped out everything Feng Xiaogang wanted to hear.

"The Huabiao Awards announced changes to the selection rules."

“High-grossing commercial films are no longer ignored.”

"Looking at all the domestic films that were nominated, my film "Life Events" was lucky enough to beat "Cell Phone" at the box office thanks to this special period when the epidemic had just ended."

"But I am still too young after all! I don't have enough experience, and my abilities have not been fully tested."

"So Director Feng! Now, it's yours!"

"The future may be mine, but it will definitely be yours too!"

“In the field of domestic comedy films, you are not a pioneer, but you are the brightest star in the current track!”

Zhen Jiecheng sighed deeply,
Her eyes did not shy away from meeting Feng Xiaogang's gaze.

The slight bit of unwillingness revealed makes the recognition and envy in the eyes seem even more sincere!

With natural thick eyebrows and big eyes,
In addition, he confronted the Hong Kong and Taiwan factions head-on some time ago, and his "young and energetic" emotions were never suppressed.
This gesture instantly gave Feng Xiaogang's damaged, sensitive and often trampled self-esteem an unprecedented satisfaction!

It even makes Feng Xiaogang happier physically and mentally than those beautiful and noble female stars who bow their heads and wag their tails in front of him in the cameras!

Listen!

This guy is the leader of the new generation of directors! He is held in the mouth and in the palm of the hand by Beijing Film Academy!
A junior fellow protected by poet Chen, a brother recognized by Jiang Wen, a talented scholar praised by Wang Shuo,

Evaluation of Laozi!
comfortable!
What a pleasure!
Jiang Wen is so damn right.
This young man is really good!
Thinking of this, Feng Xiaogang immediately grabbed Zhen Jiecheng's hand and refused to let go.

That guy is shaking so hard!
"Jie Cheng! I'll call you that, is that okay?"

"No problem! Of course no problem, Director Feng, you are a senior!"

"Okay! Jie Cheng, come with me! I'll take you to meet some friends! And your sister-in-law!"

Feng Xiaogang was very enthusiastic.
"Your sister-in-law often talks about your filming of "Life Events" at home, saying that it was so well done!"

"Now is a good time to get familiar with each other, so that you won't feel awkward when you come to my house as a guest in the future!"

Zhen Jiecheng: 0.0
Zhen Jiecheng wanted to escape, but he couldn't.

I can only force a smile and look happy.

As soon as the greetings were over, he found an excuse and left without stopping. Even Fan Bingbing couldn't stop Zhen Jiecheng from leaving the "Cell Phone" crew.

Visit? Sister-in-law?
屮!
forgive me!

I don't want to fight with you at all!

So I no longer thought about walking around, and sat back in the area where the "Life Events" crew was, waiting for the award ceremony to begin.

"Why? Do you have any idea about the Outstanding Actor Award?"

Looking at Deng Chao with a serious face, Zhen Jiecheng couldn't help but tease him.

"No, no, no! How is that possible!" Deng Chao waved his hands reflexively, "Teacher You is still here, as is Teacher Jiang Wen. It's not my turn anyway!"

This year's Huabiao Awards abolished the distinction between leading and supporting roles, and all were included in the Outstanding Actor (Actress) Award, so Mr. You and Deng Chao were nominated for the same award.

"Forget it! If you have an idea, then you have an idea. There's no need to pretend!" Zhen Jiecheng curled his lips, "But you have some ideas in your mind. If you are nominated for the Outstanding New Actor Award, I think you may have some hope. Outstanding Actor Award? Haha, don't dream! No chance!"

Lies hurt little, the truth is a sharp knife.

Facing Zhen Jiecheng's frank confession, Deng Chao had a bitter face.
"I know! But I'm just hoping for the best!"

"What the hell! Learn from Teacher You, and then learn from me! You're already in your twenties, be more mature, don't worry about gains and losses, it's embarrassing to watch!"

"Okay, Jiecheng, Deng Chao is still young, it's normal! Who doesn't want to win an honor? Isn't that how we all got here?" On the side, Grandpa You smiled and said, "By the way, Jiecheng, don't you have any thoughts about the award?"

"Yes! But I know what's going on!" Zhen Jiecheng leaned back in his chair comfortably.
"The only award I can win in this Huabiao Awards is probably the Outstanding New Director Award. The others have nothing to do with me at all."

"Even if I get nothing in the end, I don't care! You have to give it to me sooner or later anyway!"

As he spoke, Zhen Jiecheng raised three fingers.

"Teacher You, I won't hide anything from you."

"I'm going to give them three chances!"

"If you still don't give me three chances, don't blame me for ruining your business!"

“Three chances?” Grandpa You was stunned. “When did you become so patient? Tsk tsk tsk, this is really rare! You are willing to wait for three years!”

"Three years? Teacher You, please stop joking! I meant three chances, not three terms!"

Zhen Jiecheng counted on his fingers.

"Today's Huabiao Award is the first chance!"

"The Hundred Flowers Awards to be held next month is a second chance!"

"The Jinkun Award, held together with the Hundred Flowers Award, is the third chance!"

"Just these three times!"

Mr. You:
Even though he was over 70 years old and had superb acting skills, he was unable to control his expression at the first moment.
The corners of his mouth twitched a few times.
"Okay!"

"You are quite patient! After all, you have won three awards."

After some small talk, the host walked onto the center of the stage as music started playing.

Upon seeing this, everyone quickly adjusted their expressions to prepare for being captured by the camera at any time.

The award ceremony officially begins!
"The winner of the 10th Huaxia Film Huabiao Award, Market Development Award is"

""cell phone"!"

"Congratulations to Director Feng Xiaogang!"

Warm applause broke out, Feng Xiaogang's face flushed, and he stood up excitedly! Here we go!

Come right at the beginning!
The Huabiao Award really did not deceive me!

Our little steel cannon can now stand up straight in the country!
Feng Xiaogang certainly knows that the domestic awards cannot be compared in terms of value with the three European awards held by Zhang Yimou and Chen Shishi.

But for him, it was enough!

There was no way. Before this, the little steel cannon had a really miserable life.

Apart from "Party A and Party B" and "Big Shot" which won awards at the Hundred Flowers Awards in 97 and 02 respectively, only "A Sigh" won honors at the Cairo International Film Festival in 00.

But the problem is that no one in China buys into the Cairo Film Festival! After all the publicity, it was ridiculed, which made Feng Xiaogang so angry that he cursed.

He didn't even win the Beijing University Student Film Festival's Most Popular Director Award.

This year's "Cell Phone" lost to Zhen Jiecheng's "Life Events".

By the way, Zhen Jiecheng didn’t come. Wang Jinghua was there on his behalf.

How embarrassed would the young man who was present at the scene feel?

“Thanks to the Huabiao Awards jury for voting!”

“Thank you for the love from the audience!”

“Thanks to my wife for her full support.”

Feng Xiaogang picked up the microphone and talked incessantly, his excitement was beyond words!
The audience applauded continuously and was very cooperative.

Especially Zhen Jiecheng, who clapped the loudest.

In response, Feng Xiaogang returned the favor.

"As our film market becomes more and more prosperous, many outstanding new directors have emerged!"

"Just like Director Zhen Jiecheng!"

"I believe that our film market will continue to prosper and more outstanding directors will emerge!"

"thank you all!"

Wow! Thunderous applause!

Feng Xiaogang walked with a step that showed no regard for his relatives. After sitting back in his seat, the first thing he looked at was the stage, his eyes were bright and sharp!
The Outstanding Foreign Co-production Award, the Outstanding Chinese Opera Award, the Outstanding TV Film Award, and the Outstanding Film Technology Award were presented one after another.

until!

"The winner of the Outstanding New Film Director Award is Liu Xin, the director of 38 Degrees!"

As soon as the words fell, the scene suddenly became quiet!
Thirty-Eight Degrees? Liu Xin?

Shouldn’t it be Zhen Jiecheng from “Life Events”?

Even Liu Xin himself was a little surprised, until a solitary applause finally broke out at the scene.

Everyone looked up and saw Zhen Jiecheng smiling and clapping.

"Alas! What a pity for Jie Cheng!"

"I've had a lot of trouble with Jiang Wen over the past year, and it's not a good influence. Otherwise, this award would definitely be his!"

Feng Xiaogang spoke to his wife Xu Fan with regret, and then cast a sympathetic look at Zhen Jiecheng.

Seeing that Zhen Jiecheng had caught it and looked over, he made a cheering gesture to show his encouragement.

It was not just Feng Xiaogang, many people at the scene felt the same way.

For example, Jiang Wen, and Cheng Hong, who represented the poet Chen and was sitting next to director Teng Wenji,

Among them, the one who expressed the most emotion was the department head Tian Zhuangzhuang.

Suddenly, Teacher Tian had a dark face and looked at the judges with an unfriendly look!

"The winners of the Outstanding Actress Award are Ju Xue from "Brilliant Season" and Jiang Wenli from "Taiwan Past"!"

This time it wasn't as quiet as before, but the applause was obviously hesitant!

The camera immediately locked onto Zhang Ziyi.
Double yolk egg!

There’s no Zhang Ziyi here?
"The winners of the Outstanding Actor Award are Liu Wei from "Mysterious Case" and Zhou Xiaobin from "Unforgettable"!"

Oh shit, another double yolk egg!
But what about Jiang Wen? What about Huang Sanshi?

Everyone was so surprised that they had no intention of paying attention to the winner's speech and just applauded.

And the performance of the Huabiao Awards is still going on!

Feng Xiaogang also sat up straight and prepared to stand up.

"The winners of the Outstanding Director Award are Zheng Dongtian for "Taiwan Past" and Huo Jianqi for "Warmth"!"

Damn it! It’s a double yolk egg!
Feng Xiaogang shuddered!
It took only a very short time for her buttocks to leave the chair by ten centimeters and then sit back down.

Then his body began to stiffen, and at the pull and signal of his daughter-in-law Xu Fan, he clapped mechanically.

His chest rose and fell dramatically, and his breathing became heavier.
It took a lot of effort to adjust my mood.
"The winners of the Outstanding Feature Film Award are "Taiwan Province Past", "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", "Thrilling", "Brilliant Season", and "38 Degrees". Congratulations to the creative teams and crew members of the above ten films!"

Finally it’s not a double yolked egg this time!

But it was Inuru's ten-yolked egg!

What’s even more fucking insane is that even among the ten yellow cards, “Cell Phone” didn’t even get a turn!
Feng Xiaogang felt a black screen in front of his eyes and a swelling in his forehead.

A bunch of words related to mother are crowded in my throat, and I wish I could pour them all out in the next second!

The market is leaning heavily towards it!

**Fully consider the film market influence as the selection criteria!
Damn Huabiao Award!

Damn judges!
I'm ******!

"Director Zhen, what do you think about the fact that Life Events did not win any awards at the Huabiao Awards?"

"Director Zhen, do you think the Huabiao Award's judging criteria are unfair?"

"Director Zhen, your brother Jiang Wen and Beijing Film Academy's acting teacher Huang Sanshi both missed out on the Outstanding Actor Award. What do you think?"

"Director Zhen."

After the award ceremony, Zhen Jiecheng left the venue directly and was surrounded by reporters when he drove out of the parking lot.

Seeing this, Zhen Jiecheng had no choice but to roll down the window and replied calmly,

"It's an award ceremony. There are always people who win and there are always people who miss out. It's normal!"

"If I can't get it this time, there's always next time!"

"I'm still young, there's no rush!"

After saying that, he rolled back the car window.

After sending Teacher You and Deng Chao Sun Li back respectively, he took out his cell phone and called Fan Bingbing.

"Sister, I'm in a bad mood. Do you have time to accompany me to soak in a hot spring? Any hot spring in Beijing will do!"

Thank you for the Huabiao Award!

Isn't this just giving the reason right to your door?
　It’s no exaggeration, this is how the Huabiao Awards were held this year.

　　Moreover, it was publicly stated early on that the awards would be heavily tilted towards the market, and that the influence of the film market would be fully considered as the selection criteria.

　　All the favorites were wiped out, and the bulls were in a mess.
