Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 150 Venice Silver Lion

I wonder if he will really be given a consolation prize later? Chen Linfeng tried to remain calm.

Li Yu on the side looked at him with sympathy, they were two brothers in distress.

Chen Linfeng forced a smile at Li Yu standing beside him and waited for the subsequent prize to be distributed.

I waited for a while with a dead heart.

He kept waiting like this, but unexpectedly, almost all the peripheral awards were given out, and his name still hadn't been called.

Could it be that?
Chen Linfeng pretended to be calm, but he was actually very excited.

Next, there are basically awards from the main competition unit.

The previous favorite, "Good Night and Good Luck", won the Best Screenplay Award and the Best Actor Award.

This film can basically be declared to be withdrawing from this film festival. Best Actor and Best Screenplay are not small awards, and it is unlikely that he will be given more important awards.

Director George Clooney was visibly depressed, as the two awards he won had little to do with him.

Actor David Strathairn was quite excited, as the Venice Film Festival Best Actor Award is no small title.

It reveals the disparity in the world.

At this point, although Chen Linfeng was still very excited, he had already begun to think about what was going on.

These are all awards for the main competition unit. They have nothing to do with me. It couldn’t be that the staff made a mistake.

The next Best Actress award was won by Joanna from Roma.

The highest award was about to be given, and Chen Linfeng became more and more confused. He knew that he would never win the Golden Lion Award.

At this time, Freddy, the chairman of the jury of this year's film festival, appeared as the award presenter.

He looked at the envelope in his hand and finally spoke slowly.

"The winner of the Silver Lion Award for Best Short Film at this year's Venice Film Festival is "Bird Without Wings."

Chen Linfeng was still analyzing the issue in his mind when he heard about the Silver Lion Award. He thought, no wonder, there actually was a Silver Lion Award and a short film award could be added.

This is a special award. In previous years, there has only been one Silver Lion Award for Best Director.

And in later generations, the second highest award of the Venice Film Festival became the newly added Silver Lion Grand Jury Award.

It is usually referred to as the Jury Prize. Ordinary people have rarely heard of the Silver Lion Award, so he had never thought of it before.

The judges are playing tricks.

Chen Linfeng was so focused on himself that he forgot for a moment that the award was given to him.

Until Qian Jianfei beside him patted his shoulder and spoke in his ear.

"Xiao Chen, I'm calling you. We won a prize."

"Won a prize?"

Only then did Chen Linfeng react.

Everyone from the surrounding Chinese army, including many people at the scene, were looking at him.

The expressions of Li Yu and Guan Jinpeng were particularly complicated.

We were supposed to share the consolation prize, but you were the only one who ran away.

I won a prize!

A sincere smile began to appear on Chen Linfeng's face, and he hugged and celebrated with the people around him.

Then he pulled Qian Jianfei and wanted to go with him.

At critical moments, we must not forget our partners. The honor of this award is already in our hands, and we can still share the moment of victory with our partners.

Qian Jianfei waved his hands vigorously. Shenmei Factory was just a paid production company and had no involvement in the investment, so he felt embarrassed to go up.

Chen Linfeng ignored his apparent refusal. Who wouldn't want to go up at this time, so he pulled him up with all his might.

Qian Jianfei followed with a helpless look on his face.

On the stage, Qian Jianfei signaled Chen Linfeng to speak first.

Chen Linfeng did not refuse and delivered his long-prepared acceptance speech in Chinese.

“I would like to thank the organizers of the Venice Film Festival for valuing me so much, and I would also like to thank the audiences who have watched “Wingless Bird” for their support.

As a new director, I will definitely work harder and take every work seriously in my future directing career."

The colleagues in the audience applauded enthusiastically, as they all knew that Chen Linfeng was a famous writer.

They completely regarded the above paragraph as a pledge of allegiance and a statement of job change. The film and television industry is still good. Haven't you seen such a multi-million best-selling writer change his job to become a director?

It can only be said that this kind of contempt chain between different professions also exists abroad.

It is obvious that the level of the film and television industry is a little inferior to that of the writer circle.

Therefore, everyone was very excited about this move of "abandoning darkness and turning to light".

Then, as usual, Chen Linfeng thanked the school, parents, relatives and friends.

Then he handed the microphone to Qian Jianfei.

Qian Jianfei was obviously a little nervous and excited, and his voice was trembling at the beginning.

Yes, Shenmei Factory hasn’t been so prosperous for many years.

As an old employee of the factory, how could he not be mentally unbalanced when he encountered a situation that could change the factory?

After the Silver Lion Award for Best Short Film, it is the Silver Lion Award for Best Director.

The award was won by French director Philippe Garrel.

The final Golden Lion Award was won by Li An's "Brokeback Mountain".

In fact, everyone already had an idea before the final award was announced.

After many years, the Golden Lion Award was won by a Chinese again, and everyone was very happy.

Chen Linfeng followed the crowd and applauded. He already knew the result and was not at all moved.

When I came out of the venue, Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang were waiting outside. They had already known the news of winning the award.

Liu Qianqian rushed up to him and gave him a big hug.

Chen Linfeng felt the soft body in his arms and wondered if this girl was a little too real. He just wanted to congratulate her and there was no need to be so enthusiastic.

After the hug, he opened his arms to Shu Chang.

Shu Chang looked at him puzzledly.

"What do you mean?"

"Aren't you coming to celebrate?"

Shu Chang chuckled and said, "I'm not coming."

As she spoke, she walked over to Chen Linfeng and patted him on the shoulder.

"Well done."

Shu Chang tilted his head and teased Liu Xixi, "This is the correct way to celebrate, right, Xixi."

Liu Qianqian stared at her with shame and anger. Just hug me if I let you. Why are you looking so dead?

At this time, Princess Six Tu Jingwei came over to congratulate him, "This is not a consolation prize. Can you accept my interview?"

That was no problem, of course. The two agreed that the interview would be conducted in the hotel afterwards.

The subsequent interview.

Tu Jingwei congratulated Chen Linfeng again on winning the award, and then asked.

"Did you ever think about winning such a big prize this time?"

"Really not. I always thought that it would be great if I could win a Best Short Film Award."

Chen Linfeng also talked about his mental journey at the conference.

Tu Jingwei laughed. She didn't expect that writer Xiao Chen, who had been famous since his youth, would also be nervous.

She then asked, "What do you think this award means to you?"

"It can be regarded as an encouragement. My current thought is, don't be complacent because of this. There are higher mountains ahead waiting for me to climb."

"Well said." Tu Jingwei exclaimed.

"What are your plans for the future? You are also an actor now. You must have filmed two or three dramas since last year.

Should I continue to be an actor or specialize in directing?"

“I will not give up on either aspect. Starting next year, I will probably try to organize and film a drama on my own.

Due to schedule constraints, I will probably take fewer external dramas and focus more on my own dramas.”
