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

Chapter 486 The Best Actress was crowned, and I, Sissi, won... huh?

On the evening of November 11, after the red carpet session, Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian entered the Hsinchu Performing Arts Hall.

"Hey, this way, Director Chen." Wang Baoqiang waved from afar.

Chen Linfeng looked and saw that they were all familiar faces, Wang Baoqiang, Wang Qianyuan and Ge You.

Wow, several potential best actor candidates are here.

"Hello! Mr. Tree", "The Piano in a Factory", "Let the Bullets Fly", and "Your Name".

Several of the films nominated for the Golden Horse Best Actor Award this year are included.

He lamented, "This year's Chinese-language film box office is not as strong as last year, but looking at you all, in terms of quality, it is not that bad."

Ge You took over the conversation, "We were just talking about this. Recently, the media has invented a new term. Last year was called the year of commercial films, and this year is the year of art films. The momentum has been rising."

Jiang Wen was surprised, "Can it be calculated this way?"

He looked at Chen Linfeng, "Brother, do you think your "Name" and my "Bullet" can be considered art films?"

Chen Linfeng replied seriously, "Our works should be appreciated by both the elite and the masses, so they count."

"Oh, so that's how it is. You're right, brother."

The two looked at each other and then burst into laughter.

Ge You said speechlessly, "I think we should give you two the Thickest-skinned Award. Other awards can't satisfy you."

Jiang Wen said in high spirits, "Thick skin means momentum. Looking at everyone tonight, my brother and I are the most powerful."

This means that among the works nominated for the Golden Horse Awards, the films with the most nominations are "Let the Bullets Fly" and "Your Name".

"Let the Bullets Fly" won 8 awards, and "Your Name" won 10 awards.

In recent days, both movies have been reported by various media outlets.

Chen Linfeng was not so confident. "There are several good films at the Venice Film Festival alone. I don't have much advantage in winning awards."

He was pointing at Jiang Wen.

Even though there were many nominees, he remembered clearly the awards that "Let the Bullets Fly" won in his previous life, and there were only a few.

The Golden Horse Awards and the Hong Kong Film Awards were just runners-up, not to mention the Golden Rooster Awards.

In fact, from the selection of the 150-year classics in film history, it can be seen that "Let the Bullets Fly" finally only hovered around th place.

This is despite Jiang Wen's reputation, which has always been very good in the industry.

Although Chen Linfeng thinks that "Let the Bullets Fly" is excellent, most of his colleagues do not quite agree with it.

Most people still only regard "Let the Bullets Fly" as a commercial movie about bandits fighting bullies.

For now, only a few netizens care about the metaphors in it.

Many well-known memes and metaphors in later generations were actually discovered over time.

It will probably take a few years for professional reputation to improve.

But Jiang Wen didn't feel that way at all, he was feeling very proud now.

Chen Linfeng chatted with him for a few words and then returned to his seat.

"Your Name" does not have very outstanding supporting roles, so teachers Lu Zhong, Tong Yaya, Hu Ge and others did not come.

However, crew members including Xu Jian, Chen Xinzhi, and Li Jinhui were all present at the event because they were nominated for awards.

Chen Linfeng nodded at the few people who were making faces at him, then turned around and greeted them.

"Teacher Li, it's been a while since we last met. I think I'll have a chance to win a prize this time, so it's worth inviting you here."

"This is nothing. I'm just helping you. It doesn't matter whether I get a prize or not."

Li Jinhui shook his head, not seeming to care at all.

"That's still different. Your Name is so outstanding in art, it deserves a reward."

He lowered his voice and said, "In fact, when it came to the Golden Rooster Awards, I was not convinced. It should have been Teacher Li who won the award at that time."

"Hey, don't talk about that. Don't talk about that."

Li Jinhui changed the subject and asked, "The graduate class you taught for two years has ended. Although you left a few people to help, did you not think about teaching another class this year?"

"I've thought about it, but I haven't had the time recently. I'll go to school after I get back."

"You don't have time for a honeymoon?"

"That's different. Public is public and private is private."

"That's a really good excuse you found."

Li Jinhui laughed, then he said seriously,

"Okay, if we recruit more people this year, we have to accept two more from our college.

The students you teach have the most opportunities to practice, and they are now very popular. I can only ask you for an opportunity."

He sighed, "Art is actually quite important. Many crews nowadays don't pay attention to it, which actually has a huge impact."

At this point, he couldn't help but complain.

“I’ve been watching a few TV shows in a row recently, and the highly saturated warm tones almost blinded me.

Are those who do post-production color grading stupid?
The clothes worn by the characters in the play are also hard to describe, they are all colorful, I am so...”

As he spoke, Li Jinhui started swearing.

This can be considered a traditional characteristic of the older generation. Whenever they get excited, they tend to utter harmonious words.

Although Li Jinhui is a teacher, he is not so particular when speaking in private.

Chen Linfeng knew which ones they were talking about as soon as he heard them.

It must be Yu Heng’s drama, the characteristics are too obvious.

"It should be these few. I think the others are all OK."

"A few are enough, how can you dare to have a few more?"

Li Jinhui glared and said, "This is the result of the art director's low level and poor aesthetic taste.

So Xiao Chen, you still need to train more talents in this area.

Even if you can't use it, Long Lin will definitely be able to use it when he's filming a TV series."

He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I will only pick those with enough talent, and I won't put any ugly ones in front of you."

After all, it’s all for this.

Chen Linfeng nodded, but ultimately did not give in, only saying that he would wait and see when he got to school.

When talking about the latest TV series, Cao Yu couldn't help but complain.

“Previously, TV dramas were shot with film, which has a yellow tint. Even if the clothes were bright colors, the overall look of the picture was harmonious.

In the past two years, we have switched to high-definition cameras and have converted to digital, so those who are not good enough can’t do color grading anymore.”

"Not only that," Liu Qingshan also joined the conversation, "The lighting is also all kinds of strong warm light."

Chen Xinzhi said weakly, "I think it's okay. After all, I have Director Chen's dramas as a benchmark, and I learned most of it from him."

Cao Yu curled his lips and said, "I think they can't understand it even if they learn it."

Liu Qingshan nodded repeatedly, "That's right, Director Chen's level is still too high."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Chen Linfeng said helplessly, "Why are you dragging me into this? Long Lin's dramas in the past two years have all been good, so naturally there are crews following suit. What does this have to do with me?"

"It doesn't matter. After all, it was Director Chen who started it."

"That's it."

Chen Xinzhi opened his mouth and couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

You guys are such a flatterer, you guys are a bunch of dogs.

Chen Linfeng also complained in his heart that these people really have no shame at all.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhiren is relatively honest and has not been infected.

Then Chen Xinzhi asked, "Director, the editing is done now, and only the post-production is left. When can we start working again?"

Since I can't win the argument with words, I can only show my attitude to you guys.

Cao Yu, Liu Qingshan and others cursed in their hearts: Damn it, this bastard, stop exacerbating the internal conflict.

Then Liu Qingshan smiled and said, "Yes, Director, I can't wait to start shooting the new film."

Cao Yu: “…”

Chen Linfeng felt that this group of people were somewhat sick.

"Wait until the New Year is over, and you can take a rest during this time."

"Okay!"*3
Xu Jian, who is in charge of the mythical beast special effects, looked at these fake ones with disdain.

It's worth mentioning that it only opens twice a year. It's really~
They are the ones who work on special effects and have to work overtime every now and then. Are they proud of themselves?
"Mr. Chen, isn't the special effects cycle for Inception still a bit too long? How about we speed up the process?"

"Well, that's not necessary. Just come as normal. Xu Jian, you have to pay attention. When you lead employees to work overtime, remember to pay them enough overtime pay."

Seeing that this group of people were beginning to fight among themselves, Chen Linfeng quickly called a halt.

Workers should not torture each other.

At this time, Liu Qianqian came back from somewhere and sat down in her seat.

Chen Linfeng asked, "Why didn't I see you just now? Who were you chatting with?"

"Yes, I was just chatting with Sister Yun."

Liu Qianqian's face flushed as she recalled the techniques of controlling her husband that she had just heard.

It's so exciting.

Although I haven't thought about putting it into practice, it's still great to listen to as gossip.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wen, who looked like a big man, was still eaten to death when he returned home.

Sister Yun is so awesome!

Chen Linfeng had no idea what kind of vicious words were going on in his wife's little head.

At this time, the Golden Horse Awards ceremony officially began, and the cameras were all facing me, so it was not appropriate to speak too frequently.

Half an hour later, the Best Art Design Award was won by "Your Name".

Li Jinhui went on stage to receive the award.

Teacher Li, who had acted nonchalant before, spoke incoherently when he gave his speech.

Xu Jian went on stage to receive the Best Visual Effects Award, helping "Your Name" win another award.

"Let the Bullets Fly" won the Best Cinematography and Best Adapted Screenplay awards.

When Chen Linfeng turned his head to look at Jiang Wen, he was laughing.

When he saw Chen Linfeng, he made a scissors gesture, indicating that the score was 2 to 2, a temporary tie.

The next Best New Actor award was won by an actor named Ke from "Those Years".

This film was released in Taiwan around August and received a lot of positive reviews.

However, because of the precedent of "Your Name", "Those Years", which also describes the feelings of student days, has a big gap in the novelty of the story and special effects.

Therefore, it did not reach the level of sensation in the previous life.

Taiwan's own media are comparing these two movies and then concluding that they have lost.

Then they started howling and screaming, "Taiwanese movies are lame."

Well, it's quite weird.

This is even more true at the audience level.

After years of word-of-mouth management, Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian have a large fan base in Wandao, which can almost be considered as their home turf.

Fans of "Your Name" can hang up and beat fans of "Those Years" on the underworld forum.

However, at the Golden Horse Awards, the organizing committee will still find a way to take care of their own people.

It was just taking care of the poisonous ghost, and it was a waste of effort in the end.

The Best Supporting Actor award went to "Seediq Bale".

This film is the film with the most nominated awards at this year's Golden Horse Awards, except for "Your Name", with a total of 9 nominations.

Jiang Wen had not mentioned this before, but he actually didn't think highly of this movie from the bottom of his heart.

I think the content inside is too stingy.

Chen Linfeng also thinks so.

But this does not stop the locals in Taiwan from paying close attention to this film, so it is also a hot favorite for this year's Golden Horse Awards.

The Best Supporting Actress award went to an art film from Taiwan.

Liu Jialing did not win the Best Supporting Actress award, and Jiang Wen, who was sitting not far away, was not as excited as he was at the beginning.

Then came the highlight, the competition for Best Actor and Best Actress.

The first award to be given out was the Best Actor award.

While the four shortlisted films were being shown.

The camera was focused on Chen Linfeng, Wang Baoqiang, Ge You, and Wang Qianyuan. When "Your Name" was played, there was extremely warm cheering around.

Then four screens were placed separately on the big screen, creating an atmosphere that seemed to be full of ups and downs and tit-for-tat.

But Chen Linfeng didn't feel the slightest bit shaken, as there wasn't much room for judging this award.

Sure enough, Ruan Jingtian on the stage slowly read out Wang Baoqiang's name.

Chen Linfeng clapped calmly.

Wang Baoqiang's performance was truly perfect.

Now with the support of Venice Film Festival Best Actor and Golden Horse Award Best Actor, "Lost in Thailand" is almost finished.

With both box office and awards in mind, the momentum of development is expected to be even stronger than in the previous life.

Then it was time to present the Best Actress award.

Liu Dehua appeared as the award presenter and argued with the two hosts.

Liu Qianqian in the audience was already starting to get nervous.

The camera would turn here from time to time, forcing her to remain calm.

Chen Linfeng secretly grabbed her hand and patted the back of her hand gently.

"Relax and think about how to say your acceptance speech later."

While the camera wasn't here, Liu Qianqian glanced at him and said, "It's not as easy as you say."

The jokes on the stage ended and the big screen began to play the works of the four candidates.

Qin Hailu in "The Piano in a Factory";

Yip Tak Yin in A Simple Life;

Chen Yanxi in "Those Years";
And Liu Qianqian from "Your Name".

When "Your Name" was broadcast, the screen showed the scene where Hanqiu woke up in the morning and touched her chest with her hands.

The audience burst into laughter immediately, followed by cheers and shouts.

This part is actually the plot where the male protagonist takes over after the body swap.

Obviously, the organizing committee chose this segment, not only for the overall program effect, but also mainly to praise Liu Qianqian's performance in playing two roles.

On the big screen, real-time images of the four people appeared at the same time, and everyone appeared calm.

Then, Liu Dehua opened the envelope.

As a result, at this time he and Zeng Zhiwei were still creating the show effect. They looked at the cards in their hands and made strange "oh" and "oh" sounds, as if they were very surprised.

Oh oh, oh your head.

Chen Linfeng could hardly bear it anymore.

Several Best Actress candidates were extremely angry but could only smile helplessly on the surface.

After waiting for about ten seconds, the two finally had enough fun.

Later, Liu Dehua announced, "Liu Xixi, Your Name."

Wow ~
The audience burst into applause and screams.

Chen Linfeng even had auditory hallucinations, and he could hear Sissi's voice from time to time.

Uh, it doesn’t seem to be an auditory hallucination.

Liu Qianqian could no longer maintain her expression and screamed into his arms.

At the same time, tears immediately came down.

Chen Linfeng comforted helplessly, "Why are you crying when you are so happy?"

"I can't help myself."

"Okay, it's time to go on stage to receive the award. Remember to speak slowly and don't forget the words."

"Ok, I know."

Liu Qianqian rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand, took a deep breath, and walked onto the stage.

Holding the trophy tightly in my hand, feeling the real touch, my floating heart finally settled down.

"First of all, I would like to thank the Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee for their recognition. Secondly, I would like to thank..."

Liu Qianqian's acceptance speech was almost the same as Chen Linfeng's.

I always thank the organizing committee, family, friends, crew and country first.

Then came the point, "Finally, I would like to thank the director, screenwriter and leading actor of this film, uh, that is, my husband, Chen Linfeng..."

Hoho~
Strange cries came from the audience from time to time, interrupting her story.

Liu Qianqian took a look and found that the voices came from the crew of "Your Name" and "Let the Bullets Fly".

She gritted her teeth secretly, these people really don't care about the occasion.

Liu Qianqian has always been shy about mentioning their special relationship in public, which is why people who know them like to make a fuss.

But at this time, I can only bite the bullet and continue.

"Well, thank him for his support and help to me all the time. Thank you, Xiaofeng."

Hu~
Cao Yu and his friends were greatly disappointed, as they had thought that he would express his love in public.

Is this the result?

Chen Linfeng turned around and glared at them, suppressing their arrogance.

I am the only one who can tease my wife. When is it your turn to make trouble?
A few people raised their hands in surrender with a wry smile, and the place finally quieted down.

Liu Qianqian finished speaking as if she was reciting a line, then walked down quickly with her head down.

Returning to her seat, she became arrogant again.

He threw the trophy in his hand, and Chen Linfeng quickly caught it.

"Well, keep it."

With his head held high and his chest puffed out, he looks like a proud white goose.

Chen Linfeng complained in his heart, "Who did you learn this habit from?"

Liu Qianqian's face was flushed, and she felt that her life was extremely satisfying.

Winning the award is secondary. Showing off in front of Xiaofeng is the ultimate enjoyment.

Chen Linfeng had no intention of fighting back.

Forget it, just satisfy her tonight.

It only happens once every few years, which is quite pitiful.

After the Best Actress award comes the Best Director award.

This award was finally given to Xu Anhua, the director of "A Simple Life".

Chen Linfeng thought that this guy was unlucky because he had won great prizes at the Venice Film Festival and the Golden Horse Awards in his previous life.

As a result, due to his influence, this is all that is left.

He didn't have the slightest resentment, but instead felt some newfound pity, how pitiful.

For the final grand prize, the Best Feature Film Award, the organizing committee played some tricks.

I made a double flower egg.

"Your Name" and "Seediq Bale" won the award together.

Chen Linfeng was actually a little unhappy.

Isn't this equivalent to using his "Your Name" to raise the value of "Seediq Bale"?

But on the surface, he was given two technical awards, a Best Actress award, and a Best Film award.

The treatment was very good, and it is no exaggeration to say that he was the biggest winner of this year's Golden Horse Awards.

This made him not so unhappy.

All I can say is that the Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee does know how to strike a balance.

If the Golden Rooster Awards could learn the essence of this, there would not have to be such a situation today.

But he almost accepted it.

It is very uncomfortable when the balance is truly reached.

After Chen Linfeng finished his acceptance speech, he glimpsed from afar that Jiang Wen's face had turned dark.

This person who ran along throughout the whole race belongs to him.

After this year's Golden Horse Awards came to an end, the media's carnival has just begun.

There wasn't much controversy during the interview session after the award ceremony.

Even for Jiang Wen, we can only say that it is rather miserable, but we cannot say that there is anything wrong with this year's awards.

However, it is really worth mentioning that Liu Xixi won the Best Actress award.

Starting from TV series to the big screen.

Liu Xixi has always been enjoying flowers and applause.

The only strange thing is that she never gets much praise when it comes to awards.

Even though we have experienced such highly acclaimed works as "The Great Tang Empire", "Reply", "Whiplash" and "Sunset".

As a result, she has hardly ever won any particularly important awards.

This issue has been discussed a lot in the past by both fans and the media.

Now, everything is fine, and I can say that I have finally accomplished my goal, having won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress, a fairly prestigious award.

The media simply displayed Liu Xixi's works and the awards she had won in the past decade.

The topic and program effect are maximized.

In addition, as the other half of the couple, Chen Linfeng has always been a favorite at major film festivals and award ceremonies.

The awards he has won are countless.

Comparing the two is also a hot topic among the media and the public.

It is outdated to compare Chen Linfeng and Fang Long now.

The new version is a war between two wall hangings.

Both are contestants who have never failed. What will be the result if Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian are compared with each other?

Of course, this excludes the inherent inequality between directors and actors.

From the current perspective, Liu Qianqian still has people to pursue.

But in a long-distance race, no one cares about the immediate victory or defeat.

The media and those who fan the flames online are trying to add some instability to the couple's married life.

However, what the outside world doesn’t know is that Chen Linfeng’s favorite thing is to use these reports and comments to amuse his wife.

Tonight, Liu Qianqian felt she had won a great victory.

After returning to the hotel, he tried to reverse the past unfavorable situation, but as expected, he was killed.

"is this okay?"

Liu Qianqian held the trophy in humiliation, feeling that something was not right.

How come I have been winning all night, but now I still have to suffer a loss?
……

The next day, Chen Linfeng returned feeling refreshed.

I happened to meet Jiang Wen and his group on the plane.

Everyone changed positions slightly.

Chen Linfeng and Jiang Wen sat together, while Liu Qianqian went to ask Zhou Yun for advice on how to control her husband.

"Brother Jiang, are you still depressed?"

"Hey, why would a grown man care about such a thing? You underestimate your brother Jiang."

Jiang Wen grinned, but his words sounded a bit insincere.

"Don't worry. The professional reputation of Let the Bullets Fly won't improve in the past two years. Wait and see in a few years."

"What's wrong?"

Chen Linfeng waved his hand and said, "Not worth mentioning."

"Oh?"

"Among the films that won awards last night, I'm not saying that there are only a few that will be remembered ten years later, and the most eye-catching one must be Let the Bullets Fly."

"You praise me too much. Your Name alone is a huge mountain."

"I really don't support it. Ten years from now, Your Name will definitely not be as successful as it is this year, and Let the Bullets Fly will probably be the opposite."

"You think too highly of my brother. How about I take over this movie and you play the leading role?"

"Farewell!"
