I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Chapter 25 The awards ceremony begins, and Su Chang receives the award.
After hanging up, he started dialing again.

He made five calls in a row before stopping.

Seeing Li Yue's curious gaze, the editor-in-chief said, "I called my friends in Venice and asked them to quickly find Cheng Sheng's crew to take some photos and send them back. Once the photos are back, I'll upload them online along with the article."

“Okay, boss.” Li Yue said excitedly.

"Xiaoyue, you should start preparing now. First, get the press releases for the Best Actor and Best Actress. Quickly find the actors' information. Second, get the press releases for Cheng Sheng. I don't need to teach you how to praise him, right? It would be best if you could get his detailed information about the Central Academy of Drama. That way, we can discuss things objectively."

Li Yue listened attentively, nodding and taking notes.

"After making these two preparations, don't rush to report it. Wait until the Venice awards are confirmed tomorrow, and then release them all as soon as possible."

9 month 11 day.

It was the closing ceremony of the Venice Film Festival.

All the film crews that were able to participate in the closing ceremony were nominated for the main competition. Those that were not nominated were basically selling their films. After selling their films, most of them took a plane back home, and only a small number stayed to wait for the awards ceremony.

The closing ceremony also involves walking the red carpet, but this time the red carpet is different. You can spend more time on the red carpet, and there are also special photo and interview areas.

It's a perfect opportunity for the actors in the production team to showcase their talents and become famous.

Cheng Sheng and the female lead Su Chang walked at the front, followed by Zheng Guolin, Fu Dalong and other leading actors. The coal bosses did not walk the red carpet.

Su Chang wore a light yellow, modified Hanfu. The waistline was accentuated by pleats, making the overall look more prominent and giving her a playful, girlish charm.

As the film's female lead, Su Chang portrays the young Empress Zhangsun, perfectly capturing both the Empress's wisdom and her youthful mischief.

Holding Su Chang's cold hand, Cheng Sheng was speechless. He hadn't expected Su Chang to be just like Zeng Li, prioritizing style over warmth.

Hey!
Being a female celebrity is really tough. Not only do they have to maintain their figure, but they also have to attend various events and wear revealing dresses that accentuate their figures, no matter how cold the weather is. It's truly a hardship.

After walking the red carpet, the next step was to sign the movie posters on the wall.

Cheng Sheng simply signed his name, while Su Chang's signature was incredibly smooth, clearly indicating that he had practiced.

Next, the rest of the people signed.

Then, in the photo area, we were photographed by media from various countries.

"Procedure!"

"Suanzhang!"

"Guangyang!"

“mingshili!”

"..."

During the photo shoot, several photographers were even shouting out the names of the people, clearly indicating that these people had also seen the movie.

Su Chang was a bit reserved when taking photos, while Zeng Li was poised and confident, striking various poses.

The other actresses were also reserved, but they didn't want to miss the opportunity to become famous, so they tried their best to show off their beauty.

For a time, all the actresses in the crew were vying to outshine each other.

Fifteen minutes later.

The group finally walked the red carpet.

Cheng Sheng couldn't help but glance at Su Chang, whose face was as red as an egg from the cold, and asked, "Are you cold?"

Su Chang's lips trembled a few times, but she didn't make a sound. However, she gripped Cheng Sheng's hand much tighter, which showed that she had already made up her mind. She blinked and looked at Cheng Sheng.

Seeing Su Chang's pitiful state, Cheng Sheng quickly led her into the theater and found the film crew's seats, where the coal bosses had already taken their seats.

Amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the coal mine owners, Cheng Sheng sat in the middle of them, while Su Chang sat on the side with Zeng Li and others.

Cheng Sheng chatted with the coal mine owners while putting on a smiling face, but he felt utterly helpless. These coal mine owners were too enthusiastic; if there hadn't been no alcohol here, he probably would have gotten drunk to death.

However, he could understand. After all, they had really made a splash this time. They had even been interviewed by CCTV reporters. If that had been broadcast on the evening news, their family tree would have been dedicated to them when they returned to their hometown.

One by one, many people entered the film crew and sat down according to their assigned seats.

Once everyone had arrived, the president of the film festival jury gave an opening speech, and the jury members made a collective appearance.

As the youngest member of the judging panel, Scarlett was quite mischievous, secretly winking at Cheng Sheng's crew on stage.

signal.

Cheng Sheng received news that his film was sure to win an award.

Scarlett hadn't revealed any information before, but the awards ceremony was just around the corner. Even if Scarlett gave him a signal, others wouldn't say anything even if they understood.

The film festival has a lot of procedures. In addition to the main competition, there are various sections for special mention and awards for short films. After all these are given out,

Then came the awards ceremony for the main competition section.

The Bresson Prize was awarded to Wim Wenders.

The International Critics' Award was given to Kim Ki-duk's "3-Iron" and Vincent Mara's "Earthquake".

After that, there are awards in the Digital and Horizon categories, and finally the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement, which was presented to American director Stalydonan and Portuguese director Manuel de Oliveira.

After these awards are presented, the big prize will be awarded next.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the entire theater changed, because this was the environment everyone had been looking forward to the most, and also the most important moment.

The host started by rambling on and on, which Cheng Sheng couldn't understand at all.

Then they began to present the first award—the Best Newcomer Award.

"The winner of Best New Actress is Changsu, for 'The Great Tang Dynasty - Origins'."

Su Chang won an award!
The entire crew of "The Great Tang Dynasty" was stunned.

Amidst the applause, everyone turned to look at Cheng Sheng, and Su Chang, her face flushed with excitement, stood up.

Cheng Sheng frowned slightly. Although it was a good start, if Su Chang won the Best Newcomer award, then she probably wouldn't get the Best Actress award.

I secretly felt sorry for Su Chang.

After all, Su Chang worked very hard in his film, and with the added benefit of being there in person, winning Best Actress is no problem for her.

However, winning an award in Venice is a recognition of Su Chang's achievements.

After returning to China, Su Chang's career will probably be even better than in the original timeline!

Su Chang excitedly shook hands with the crew members before going on stage to accept the award.

After receiving the award, it's time to give an acceptance speech.

Although Su Chang was a little nervous, she was well-prepared and managed to speak English, thanking Cheng Sheng first, then the crew and her friends and family.

domestic.

On the set of "The Legend of Nezha".

At this moment, no one on set was filming; everyone was gathered around a radio, listening to the Venice Film Festival awards ceremony.

When Director Chang heard that Su Chang had won Best Newcomer, he was completely stunned. He clenched his fists and could no longer suppress his smile.

"Haha, great! Changchang won the award, great!" Director Chang laughed loudly.
