I'm not mentally ill, I'm a master of a thousand faces!

Chapter 485, Only with me does the Golden Eagle Award have any real value.

The discussion was heated.

It's probably a precedent; there's never been one for this particular case.

At this point, Hu Zhenyu firmly objected. In fact, this matter could be easily resolved by nominating only one role, which would completely solve the problem.

Legal and compliant.

The problem is that there are differing opinions within the judging panel regarding this nomination.

Li Yun, this young actor, has caused quite a stir in the industry, not to mention his most notable achievement: playing two roles in a single production, both of which he performed exceptionally well.

This kind of thing was unheard of and unseen in the past.

after all.

No matter how good a person's acting skills are, or how outstanding their portrayal of a character is, in the end, they are just a person, and at most, they only play one role.

But now, Li Yun's performance in "New Three Kingdoms" has actually achieved some success in both roles, which is shocking and impressive.

This creates a vulnerability.

The last time an actor played two roles was Li Yun, a feat that was unprecedented and will likely never be repeated.

I remember last time.

Li Yun also contributed to this achievement, winning two nominations for Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Eagle Awards for his roles as the Moon Worship Cult Leader and Yang Jian (Erlang Shen).

This is also the first time in history, but the last time was generally in line with historical norms and development rules.

There was nothing wrong or inappropriate about it.

But things are quite different now.

How do you nominate someone for a role in a show with two characters played by one actor?

In any less rigorous award, this matter would be easily resolved: no nomination would prevent errors, and no connection would avoid turmoil. But for the Golden Eagle Awards, this is absolutely unacceptable.

Because of the prestige of the Golden Eagle Awards, such incompetent behavior is absolutely unacceptable.

This led to the argument within the judging panel.

Although everyone had different opinions, no one mentioned not wanting to be nominated.

Because they know.

You're either qualified or not.

Their disagreement lies in whether to select one of the two roles for nomination or to nominate both.

Nominating them together sets a precedent.

But selecting just one person to nominate seems insufficient to convince the public.

It's important to understand that these two roles are equally outstanding. Rejecting the other would compromise the fairness of the award, and fairness is precisely what the Golden Eagle Awards cannot afford to lose.

"Ever since Li Yun made history last time, the public pressure we've faced has been immense. Have you forgotten what happened last time? It caused quite a stir. You haven't forgotten the public outcry that time, have you? Moreover, this time we're so close to the Magnolia Awards, we should proceed with even greater caution."

Hu Zhenyu pondered for a moment.

He also pointed out a key point: although they are called the three major TV drama awards and are known as the three major awards, in reality, none of the three organizations want to be ranked alongside the others; they all want to be number one.

Behind these three awards lie different regions: the Golden Eagle Award represents Hu Nan and the Beijing circle, the Magnolia Award has more Shanghai and Shenzhen roots, and the Flying Apsaras Award is more pure, similar to the Huabiao Award, with a large amount of official and institutional bloodline.

But the three major awards.

Everyone wants to be the one with the highest value.

This time it's so close to the Hundred Flowers Awards, I'm afraid something strange might happen.

On the other side, the chief judge, who had remained silent all along, was a representative nominated by the judging panel of the State Administration of Optics and Electronics, a former leading director of military dramas, and now a retired bigwig.

Jiang Qinghe is the director who once filmed the patriotic military epic "Sichuan Women's Army".

"Old Hu, what you're saying is the same old story: these ancestral laws cannot be changed."

"That's not as exaggerated as it sounds."

"If the ancestral laws are truly immutable, then what's the deal with the newly added Best Foreign Language Film category?" Jiang Qinghe said slowly, and with just this one sentence, he left the other judges speechless.

"Well, he really does have quite a few outstanding foreign films," Hu Zhenyu couldn't help but say.

"Yes, it's extremely excellent. We are artists; we appreciate and judge. The Golden Eagle Awards have reached the status of these three major awards not because of outdated ideas like 'unchangeable ancestral laws,' but because of our professionalism, our appreciation of art, and the audience's trust in our prestige."

"We've gotten to where we are today thanks to our professional expertise."

So, at this moment, right now.

We judge it from a purely artistic perspective.

If we're talking about tasting it...

These two characters.

Am I qualified?

By the time the Golden Eagle Awards began, the production team of "New Three Kingdoms" still hadn't received any nominations for Lü Bu and Zhuge Liang. At that point, it was basically a done deal.

These two roles missed out on a nomination.

"It's a pity. Leonardo DiCaprio acted so well, but I didn't expect him to not even get a nomination."

Liu Hewei, standing to the side, felt a little regretful about this. As someone who acted opposite Li Yun, he knew this very well. The exhilarating feeling he got from acting opposite Li Yun was unparalleled.

"Don't question the professionalism of the Golden Eagle Awards. They must have their reasons for not nominating Li Yun," Chen Jianbo said from the side. He didn't have the same strong feeling as Liu Hewei, after all, he wasn't the one who acted opposite Li Yun the whole time.

If I had to say something, Li Yun's failure to nominate him meant he had one less competitor, which was a relief for him.

Liu Hewei didn't say anything more at this point, after all, he felt the same way as Chen Jianbo.

During the Golden Eagle Awards ceremony.

It's different from when I was on set.

When on set, everyone wants the other to give their best, because as 'comrades-in-arms,' they all feel a sense of shared glory and shared loss.

But now he's no longer on set; he's now at the Golden Eagle Awards ceremony, where he and his opponent are completely rivals.

They are adversaries, not allies, and their objectives are the same.

It also involves pulling the other party down.

They are 'enemies'.

There is a subtle shift in stance.

"Perhaps there were indeed some factors that led the organizers of the Golden Eagle Awards to make certain choices."

At this moment, Liu Hewei stopped thinking and focused on fixing his appearance.

I wonder if my Liu Bei, the actor who played Liu Bei, is worthy of the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor?

People arrived at the Golden Eagle Awards one after another, and a large number of people also watched the awards ceremony on television.

Because of his high level of expertise, he has such influence.

They complement each other.

Today, the hashtag on Weibo is all about the "Golden Eagle Awards," which shows its influence.

Tang Min was envious, but among her own group of people, not many were even good enough to be runners-up; walking the red carpet would suffice.

At this moment, she opened the Weibo community that she frequently follows.

"I thought that Lu Bu and Zhuge Liang in the new Three Kingdoms were really amazing, but it turns out they didn't even get a nomination, yet they keep bragging about it. They have no shame at all."

"I get annoyed just hearing Li Yun's name now. He talks a big game, but he's really just average."

"The Three Kingdoms is such an outdated thing."

There were quite a few haters, and some of them even seemed to have a grudge against Li Yun.

Among these guys who have a huge voice right now, the ones who have a grudge against Li Yun are probably the fans of TNboy, who had a feud with Li Yun last time in "The Hidden Corner".

Why did you only invite Jackson Yee and not my younger brother?

Why not let Jackson Yee be the lead actor instead of letting an ordinary person do it?

These voices are currently very loud, ranking last on the trending searches, which shows that Li Yun's influence is indeed significant, and also demonstrates the considerable impact this group can have.

Sometimes, Tang Min even admired Li Yun's way of doing things.

I also admire his style of doing things; he lets his hard work speak for itself and doesn't resort to fancy tricks.

This is probably something that Shanghai's elite circles will always envy.

However, Tang Min was also puzzled as to why Li Yun's name was not on the list for this year's Golden Eagle Awards.

From the perspective of the moviegoers, she didn't think Li Yun was unqualified. But the reality was just that cruel.

There was no nomination.

"Actually, I had heard before that Li Yun said he had received a nomination, but I don't know why he hasn't received one now." At this moment, Wang Jinghua also felt something was strange.

Logically speaking, the nomination list should have been released by now.

Let things be as they are.

The matter is already settled.

"Anyway, there's still the Best Foreign Language Film category this year, so let's leave it at that. By the way, are you ready?"

"I'm waiting for you to put on makeup."

"Alright then, let's head to the Golden Eagle Awards ceremony."

At this very moment, Li Yun was also dressed up and ready to go to the Golden Eagle Awards ceremony.

Right next to him was Jiang Chenggang, who was frantically making phone calls and asking around.

Why, why wasn't Li Yun nominated? Is there some mistake?

Or is it that the damn Beijing clique is targeting Li Yun?

He just wouldn't stop making those calls.

At this moment, Li Yun remained calm and showed no signs of emotional fluctuation.

Jiang Chenggang, who was standing next to Li Yun, looked at him in astonishment and said.

"Why aren't you in a hurry at all?"

"Why should I be in a hurry?"

"Why wasn't you nominated for the Golden Eagle Awards this year? They verbally informed our company beforehand that our chances of winning were quite high!"

Jiang Chenggang was furious. Although he dared not claim to be an expert in art appreciation, he believed that Li Yun's two roles could not possibly have been reduced to not even receiving a nomination.

not a single one!

In all honesty, Jiang Chenggang's best hope for Li Yun was that he could win the Best Actor award at this time to prove himself.

With nominations for both the Magnolia Award and the Golden Eagle Award, winning a Best Actor award would be a huge victory.

The title of "potential TV King" is completely different from that of a true TV King.

Authoritative certification and industry recognition are two different things.

Although Li Yun has the talent of a TV King in the industry, without the backing of awards, he can only get the title of "TV King" no matter what.

Rather than a true TV King.

There are many differences among them, and these differences are objective facts and things.

At worst, getting a nomination would be a safety net, but now I haven't even gotten a nomination.

This gives people a feeling of anger.

At this point, Li Yun was probably quite calm.

"If not, do you think you can get my nomination by making a series of phone calls? You can't possibly do that."

"But you were so calm. You were even a little bit calm."

Jiang Chenggang didn't know whether he should admire Li Yun or say that Li Yun was carefree.

Such an important matter in the entertainment industry was handled so casually.

This is about your career future.

That casual posture is truly impressive.

Casual and indifferent.

This kind of powerful stance is actually quite admirable.

They really have a big heart.

Generally speaking, one would at least feel a sense of loss, but Li Yun didn't seem to feel that way at all. He showed no confusion or bewilderment whatsoever. What was Li Yun thinking at this moment?

At this very moment, Li Yun is contemplating and weaving the next important script, "The Wandering Earth".

This is the most important trump card script for me.

Jiang Chenggang was indeed a good man, and he did put all his effort into doing something during this period. Even though he didn't understand Li Yun's actions, he still did his best to do it.

Just as he couldn't understand Li Yun's strangely calm demeanor.

They didn't seem rushed at all.

Another point is that Li Yun's rise, along with the area known as the Li Circle, has actually harmed the interests of countless people. This time, there is definitely someone stirring up public opinion, which is also a point that angered Jiang Chenggang.

Li Yun touched someone else's cake.

Now, Li Yun's failure to be nominated is seen as a grave offense, leading to widespread and frenzied ridicule.

You can't even get a nomination, yet you're thinking of creating an entire circle.

Isn't this class the most ridiculous thing in the world?

Publicity.

Vigorous promotion.

The goal is to let the whole world know that Li Yun is all show and no substance. He may sound impressive, but professional organizations don't recognize his abilities. What good is it if you exaggerate his abilities to the skies?

"I also think you're a bit too calm, Li Yun. If it were me, I'd be bursting with anxiety by now." At this moment, Jiang Wen looked at Li Yun with great admiration.

He will also be attending the Golden Eagle Awards this year, but he will be accompanying Jiang Wu.

Of course, there was also an element of accompanying Li Yun.

"You guys just want to know why I'm so calm, right?"

"right."

"Because without this award, my nomination has no prestige. And if it has no prestige, why should I care whether I was nominated or not?"

At this moment, Li Yun grinned and said.

An answer that surprised both of them.

The Golden Eagle Awards only have value because of me.

Without me.

Why should I worry about it?
