Become Famous Another Day

Chapter 486: I didn’t win an award today, I’m really depressed (8,000 words updated!)

After talking to Ning Zhiyuan and Zhou Yuning.

Chen Ziyan said in Lu Yanhe's ear: "After "Nine Yin" became a box office hit, many film companies offered high prices to grab his next movie, but he is still quite moral and he also remembers the good things of others. When he made "Nine Yin", it was not favored. No one believed that martial arts movies could still sell at the box office. Therefore, it has been difficult to find investment. Later, his current film company took over, and with investment, he was able to turn "" "Nine Yins" was filmed, so he rejected other film companies and continued to cooperate with Dong Lin. "

"Dong Lin? I don't think I've heard of this film company."

"It's a small company," Chen Ziyan said. "Before, we made some low-cost films, and basically you have never heard of it."

"Although "Nine Yin" is a martial arts film, director Ning Zhiyuan is also a senior director. Is it so difficult to find investment for him?"

"Because the first two movies lost money." Chen Ziyan said, "Nowadays, martial arts movies are indeed not doing well at the box office. Before "Nine Yin" came out, we had not had a martial arts movie with a high box office for many years."

When Lu Yanhe heard this, he also felt a little pity.

What a shame.

Chen Ziyan's eyes suddenly squinted, "Don't tell me, you also have a martial arts story in your head that you want to write?"

Lu Yanhe smiled and waved his hand.

"Not yet."

Of course there is, but he currently has too many projects, so take it easy and take your time.

But today's meeting with Chen Bige gave Lu Yanhe a reminder.

Even if he shoots until death, he will never be able to film so many scripts by himself.

However, if he cooperates with everyone, he doesn't have to do it alone.

Just like Chen Bige took the lead in making "Rouge Button" and "Raise the Red Lantern".

Just like Jiang Yuqian now wants to do "Telephone".

Just like Li Zhibai's "Nineteen Years of Crime Records".

In fact, can we train some “project managers”?

After this idea popped up in Lu Yanhe's mind, Lu Yanhe even laughed.

It sounds a bit ridiculous.

However, is there any way to make it happen? -

After the pleasantries were over, Lu Yanhe was finally able to sit down in his seat.

His seat is in the middle of the second row.

The only actors sitting in the first row are big names like Shang Yongzhou, Chen Bige, Chen Pinhe, and Ning Xiulian.

Calculated in this way, Lu Yanhe's position is also very good.

But Chen Ziyan had muttered it before. Chen Ziyan felt that with Lu Yanhe's current status, there was no way he would not be able to sit in the first row. To put it bluntly, Lu Yanhe is too young for the Phenom Award. No matter how high his achievements are, his qualifications are still a little low. It is not appropriate to sit in the first row, so Lu Yanhe was put in the second row.

Lu Yanhe was really unsure whether he could win the Best Actor tonight.

He wanted to get it very much.

I have acted in so many dramas and am so highly regarded by everyone, but I have never won a single trophy for Best Actor, which is really embarrassing.

However, the competition this year is too great.

If others don't tell me, there is a Shang Yongzhou in this drama.

Shang Yongzhou's disadvantage is that he has already won two Phenom Awards for Best Actor, and it will be very difficult to win the third. But his advantage is that he has not acted seriously in an art film for nearly five or six years. This time, his performance in "Path of Glory" was unanimously recognized.

As for Lu Yanhe, his advantages needless to say. His disadvantage is that the role in "Path of Glory" is not rich enough. Although the changes in the early and late stages have made the character's portrayal quite profound, he is only the second-largest character in "Path of Glory".

If Lu Yanhe applies for Best Supporting Actor this year, then he is basically certain to win this award.

When the awards were announced, the reason why he did not apply for Best Supporting Actor was because he really had no shortage of supporting actors, and this role could be applied for Best Actor.

Lu Yanhe thought about it silently and felt that he might not be able to win the best actor for this movie.

It's not a problem with his acting skills, it's a problem with his character.

How about choosing Best Supporting Actor for the next two awards?

Best Actor, I feel like I have no chance.

Lu Yanhe thought silently.

Huang Kairen, who was sitting next to him, kept rubbing his hands on his knees.

Seeing this, Lu Yanhe came to his senses and asked, "Brother Kai Ren, why are you always rubbing your hands?"

Huang Kairen whispered in Lu Yanhe's ear: "I'm nervous, my palms are sweating all the time."

"..." Lu Yanhe didn't know what to say for a while.

It was Huang Kairen's first nomination for Best Actor at the three film awards, so it was inevitable that he would be nervous.

In particular, his performance in "Rouge Button" this time is well-known. Even if he didn't win the Best Actor Award at the Hollywood Film Festival like Chen Bige, it doesn't mean that his performance was worse than Chen Bige. It can be said that in the media, the one with the highest voice is actually Huang Kairen. The media seems to like the drama "Rouge" very much. In the predicted list, the best male and female protagonists are Huang Kairen and Chen Bige respectively.

Lu Yanhe said: "Okay, Brother Kai Ren, I think you will definitely win one of the three awards this year."

The Phenom Award is the first to be awarded, so it is the most difficult to predict.

According to the law of trying not to award the same award to the same person, if the Feihong Award is given to Shang Yongzhou, then Shang Yongzhou will basically not be considered for the other two awards.

Unless this year is really too bad, like when Lu Yanhe won the Best Supporting Actor for "Three Mountains", there were basically no competitors, then he would win two awards by himself.

Obviously, this is not the case this time.

Huang Kairen took a deep breath and said, "Don't milk me, I need to calm down now."

Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "You should ask Sister Zi Xing to accompany you."

"Zixing has something to do tonight, otherwise she would have come with me." Huang Kairen said.

"What's going on tonight, Sister Zi Xing?" Lu Yanhe was a little surprised.

"She wants to meet someone, and we hope to hire that person to be my agent."

"Ah?" Lu Yanhe was puzzled.

Who does Huang Kairen have his eyes on? Who does he want to invite?

The Best Supporting Actress award was awarded at this time.

The winner was Li Shiyi, the supporting actress in the commercial action film "Lin Yuan".

A girl in her early twenties.

This is her first time acting in a movie.

When she heard her name being called, she was so excited that she cried with joy on the spot.

Lu Yanhe turned around and looked over. Li Shiyi was still a little far away from him. The little girl was sitting on the right side of the fourth row.

"I'm so lucky to win an award for my first acting performance." He heard a voice behind him sigh softly.

He glanced back.

Sitting behind him is Yu Mengling, the heroine of "Fuso". She previously won the Lingyun Award for Best Actress for this film.

When Yu Mengling saw Lu Yanhe looking back, he suddenly realized that his subconscious sigh just now must have been heard.

She stuck out her tongue sheepishly.

Lu Yanhe smiled kindly.

-

Lu Yanhe has two nominations tonight, one for Best Actor and the other for Best Screenplay for "Rouge Button".

According to industry predictions, the chances of winning the Best Screenplay Award are actually not as high as those of the Best Actor Award.

Mainly because there is "The Seventh Chapter of a Floating Life" which is so strong that as soon as it was released, its text was hailed as the most literary script in Chinese films in the past ten years.

How good is its script?

Its movie is so mediocre that it didn't get a single nomination at the Phenom Awards except for Best Screenplay.

But in this case, no one can ignore the excellence of its script.

Lu Yanhe has not seen this movie yet, but since it has been praised unanimously by so many people, Lu Yanhe believes that there must be something awesome about it.

He was also going to find time to watch the movie.

When the winning result was announced to be "The Seventh Story of a Floating Life", the audience burst into applause that was "no surprise".

Its screenwriter, a young man only twenty-six years old, walked on stage wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses.

His name is Zuo Feng. He graduated from the School of Liberal Arts of Yuming University with a bachelor's degree. He then went to Beijing Arts University to study for a master's degree in screenwriting. After graduating with a master's degree, he entered the industry, working as an unsigned scriptwriter and writing in his spare time. The script was invested in a youth film fund venture capital fund, and it was this "The Seventh Story of a Floating Life" that was spotted by actor Liu Teli, who served as the producer and made this film.

After Zuo Feng came on stage, his movements were a bit reserved, and he didn't even dare to look at the audience.

He walked up to the microphone, took the trophy, and said as if he was embarrassed, "It's a bit surprising. I thought it was Lu Yanhe who won this award. I like the movie "Rouge" very much."

Lu Yanhe was suddenly given a hint and laughed.

He knew that there must be a camera filming him at this time.

He waved his hands quickly.

Sure enough, the scene of him waving his hand appeared on the screen at the scene.

A director cut to him.

Zuo Feng said: "Thank you, Mr. Liu Teli, for giving me the opportunity to make my script into a movie. Maybe I will have many opportunities to make my script into a movie in the future, but I know that the first one is always the most difficult." So, Teacher Liu, I will always remember what you said to me that my script was very good. You were the first person to encourage me.”

Liu Teli was not present.

But Zuo Feng's grateful attitude was obviously appreciated by everyone present.

The applause continued.

"Like me, you may be struggling to make ends meet. You don't know when the scripts you create will be appreciated by others. There are really many young screenwriters who have been made into works. I hope all the teachers at the scene can pay more attention to young people. The works of the screenwriters, the works we created are not bad, they just lack a chance to be seen by you, thank you.”

The audience burst into applause again.

Lu Yanhe applauded and looked at Zuo Feng.

From his position, he could still clearly see the expression on Zuo Feng's face.

What Zuo Feng said made Lu Yanhe think deeply.

-

During the break during the award ceremony, Lu Yanhe took the initiative to find Zuo Feng.

"Hello, I am Lu Yanhe."

Zuo Feng raised his hand and pushed up his glasses, "Hello."

At first glance, Zuo Feng had an expressionless face and seemed not to care about Lu Yanhe coming to see him. He was even a little condescending and distant.

But Lu Yanhe was still keenly aware of Zuo Feng's slightly trembling mouth corners and his Adam's apple rolling from time to time.

Lu Yanhe laughed, guessing that Zuo Feng must be very nervous.

Just like him before.

When meeting famous people, they want to appear as neither humble nor arrogant as possible, but if they are unable to control their performance well, such unsatisfactory deviations will occur.

Lu Yanhe said: "Congratulations."

Zuo Feng said: "Actually, you should win the award. Compared with "Rouge Button", "The Seventh Story of a Floating Life" is not that popular."

Lu Yanhe: "Although I haven't watched your movie yet, almost every friend around me told me that the script of this movie is very good, so I believe you deserve the award tonight. No need to be modest."

"No?" Zuo Feng was surprised.

"It's true. So, you won the Phenom Award, so don't belittle yourself." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "If there is a chance in the future, we can work together and I will act in the script you wrote. How about it?"

Zuo Feng immediately said: "If you are willing to act, of course that's fine."

Lu Yanhe exchanged contact information with Zuo Feng and added a friend.

He added: "Just now, you said on stage that there are many talented young screenwriters, and they are actually only one chance away. If you meet the kind of screenwriter who needs a chance in the future, they have mature scripts and you can contact them at any time. Me, if I am not suitable, I can introduce it to others. There are many actors around me, and they are actually waiting for a good script. But you also know that in our industry, there may be a gap between us and a good script. An invisible barrier. Including scripts like "The Seventh Chapter of a Floating Life", it has never been in the hands of me or any actor around me. Everyone said that if such a script is in the hands, they will definitely not miss it. ”

Zuo Feng showed surprise.

"Really?"

Lu Yanhe nodded, "There are many actors who don't know how to pick scripts, but there are also many actors who have the ability and vision to read scripts. However, unfortunately, it seems that the more actors like this, the harder it is to find good ones from a large number of scripts. thing."

Zuo Feng: "I thought not many people liked this script. When I was looking for actors, many actors were unwilling to take it because the budget was very low."

"This does happen, but nothing is absolute." Lu Yanhe said, "Sometimes it's not us who reject the script, but the team rejects it, and the actors don't even see it. It's an opportunity, but if an actor sees it, in fact, as long as the script is good, the salary can be negotiated. Therefore, if you have a good script and a good screenwriter in the future, if you need an opportunity, please contact me at any time. "

Zuo Feng laughed in surprise and nodded.

He said thank you very forcefully.

It was only then that he laughed.

-

"Who do you think won the Best Actor award today?"

In a lounge, there were more than a dozen smokers gathered, so the lounge became a smoking room.

"Except for Zhang Ding in "You Go Against the Current," everyone else will have a chance."

"Indeed, this year is really the year for Best Actor and Best Actress. They are both fierce." Someone laughed. "Shang Yongzhou should be eliminated first, right? He has already won the Best Actor twice. It is impossible to give it to him again this year. If it is given to him again, then he will have won it three times. He is only in his thirties. Well, if we break the record now, will we give it back to him in the future?”

"But apart from this, is there any other reason not to give it to him?" Someone immediately asked, "In comparison, the role of Lu Yanhe is a bit weaker. The thickness of the character is not as thick as that of Shang Yongzhou. He is the most important The one who gets eliminated first.”

"Don't say that. Among the five nominees this year, tell me, from the judges' point of view, who is the most deserving of the Best Actor award at this time?"

"But the character he played is indeed not the core protagonist of "Path of Glory". It is said that there are two male protagonists. Everyone can see that the protagonist of this movie is still Shang Yongzhou."

"This doesn't affect the excitement of his performance in it, right? Even in the United States, he was nominated for many awards in a row."

"Those are some awards for Best Supporting Actor. If he applied for Best Supporting Actor, he would definitely sweep them this year."

"Maybe the judges didn't consider them both at all, but wanted to choose one of Huang Kairen and Zhou Yuning. Huang Kairen played the role of the Twelve Young Masters. This role was great, and he completely won it. As a A popular star with a lot of traffic, dared to insist on acting in this drama in a public opinion environment that was not favored by everyone at the time, and gave an impressive performance, which is completely worthy of the recognition of a best actor. "

"Zhou Yuning is a late bloomer. He single-handedly supported the martial arts film "Nine Yins" and brought martial arts films back into the mainstream. Isn't it representative?"

"Alas, in fact, except for Zhang Ding, these four people all have reasons to win the award. It is really difficult to be a judge this year."

“I feel like there will be a lot of controversy no matter who you choose.”

"There is no way. In the past, it was already a big year when there were two people competing for the award. This year, there are four people competing for the award. Everyone has a reason to win the award."

"But one thing is almost certain. This year's top three awards will probably be won by three people."

"Out of three people out of four, who will be the unlucky one?"

"Who knows."

"No judge thinks that Lu Yanhe is competing for the North American awards season. He may have achieved something in North America, so just give the award to someone else, right?"

"That's not true, is it?"

"If our three domestic awards don't quickly give Yan He a best actor, it will become a scandal for the three awards."

"Then what you said is too much. Lu Yanhe has only played a movie with a male protagonist in "Path of Glory" until now. It's not like he won the best supporting actor in the previous "Three Mountains". Gave him an award.”

"Did you get it wrong? Lu Yanhe was nominated for three awards for Best Actor last year with "Late Spring", but he ran into a competition between Liu Teli and Chen Pinhe, and there was also a big upset, He Daren. Last year Didn’t Lu Yanhe lose because he is too young? In fact, "Late Spring" is a performance that can definitely win an award."

"'Late Spring' is an ensemble show. No matter how good Lu Yanhe's performance is, it is still a little worse than Chen Pinhe and Liu Teli."

"You just can't see a young man winning the Best Actor Award."

…

The break wasn't very long, the commercial break was only fifteen minutes.

When there were only three minutes left before the ceremony could continue, someone knocked on the door to remind them that they were leaving.

Everyone stopped talking and walked out of the room one after another.

The conversation that just happened in the small room was just a conversation.

Will anyone tell anyone? Will it have any impact on this circle? No one knew at this time.

Anyway, in this industry, countless people are chatting and expressing their opinions every day.

Maybe Lu Yanhe can successfully win the Best Actor tonight, maybe someone else will win it.

In any case, no matter what the outcome, there will be various controversies.

But one thing is clear to everyone.

In the eyes of many people in this industry, Lu Yanhe has reached the point where the three major awards must give him a Best Actor trophy.

Otherwise, if a top actor who is representing this industry cannot get a trophy that belongs to him, everyone will only question the authority of your award.

From "Three Mountains" to "Late Spring", from "Rouge Button" to "Path of Glory", the films in which Lu Yanhe participated have represented Chinese-language films in the international arena in the past two years. This is a fact that everyone can see.

An actor who was smoking in a small room just now sighed to his companions: "Tsk, tsk, it's unimaginable, he is only 21 years old."

-

Lu Yanhe sat back in his seat.

He let out a long breath.

Huang Kairen also clenched his fists.

Lu Yanhe couldn't help laughing when he saw him like this.

The award ceremony has come to an end, and it is almost time to award the most important awards.

Lu Yanhe put his hand on Huang Kairen's shoulder and said, "Brother Kairen, let's continue to find a suitable project to cooperate with next time."

Huang Kairen was diverted by this sentence, and he was a little confused and asked: "Have you written a new script again?"

"A new script has been written, but there is no suitable role for you." Lu Yanhe smiled, "I mean, if there is a suitable scene, we will continue to act together."

"Okay." Huang Kairen's eyes flashed with disappointment when he heard that there was no script suitable for him.

He asked: "What...if you win the award this time, I might still be a little jealous of you. Don't mind it then."

Lu Yanhe was stunned.

Huang Kairen took a deep breath, "I really want to win this award. I can't control my emotions."

Lu Yanhe laughed and said, "Okay, Brother Kairen, if you win this award, you have to take care of my emotions, and I will be jealous of you."

"If I win this award, I will help you make a movie for free without any salary." Huang Kairen said, "Really, I can't think of any other way to thank you."

Lu Yanhe: "When you said it, I suddenly felt that it would be great if you won the award."

Huang Kairen clenched his hands and took a deep breath.

"That's you, if another competitor sits next to me, I don't want to deal with it at all now."

Lu Yanhe smiled.

He was quite nervous at first, but seeing Huang Kairen like this, his attention was diverted a little.

Finally, it’s time to award the Best Actor award.

Lu Yanhe felt Huang Kairen's whole body tense up.

Lu Yanhe himself was the same, not much better.

It's all **** that he's reached the point where he doesn't need awards to prove himself.

Why doesn't he need an award?

Lu Yanhe directly raised his right hand to cover his eyes.

As a result, Huang Kairen suddenly grabbed his left hand, grabbing it hard, as if he was praying for something.

"Give me a chance to catch him, otherwise I'll be out of breath!" Huang Kairen said.

When the people around them saw this move of the two of them, they all looked surprised.

—Do you two want to wear such a conspicuous bag?

The presenter, Pearl Bao, who had won the Phenom Award for Best Supporting Actress, opened the envelope and took out the winner's information.

"The winner of this year's Phenom Award for Best Actor is—"

"Huang Kairen, "Rouge Button"."

Before anyone in Lu Yanhe could react, he was hugged excitedly by Huang Kairen next to him.

"Congratulations." Lu Yanhe said.

Others were a little numb and didn't react.

Huang Kairen took a deep breath and said, "It will definitely be you who wins the prize next time."

Lu Yanhe laughed, patted Huang Kairen and said, "Hurry up and receive the award, don't worry about comforting me."

Huang Kairen was in a state of extreme excitement and excitement.

Lu Yanhe watched him hugging people around him and then went on stage.

He was really a little...jealous at the moment.

Why wasn't he himself on stage?

Reason has long told him that it is indeed difficult for him to win an award with "Path of Glory". However, if reason can work at this time, the sensibility of human beings will be too useless.

Lu Yanhe took a long, deep breath.

Yu Mengling, who was sitting behind him, suddenly put a hand on his shoulder and patted him gently.

"There will be Lingyun Award and Galaxy Award later. You still have a chance." Yu Mengling leaned over and whispered to Lu Yanhe, "Don't be disappointed."

Lu Yanhe politely thanked him.

At this time, people came to encourage him, and Lu Yanhe was very grateful.

While applauding, he turned back and smiled at Meng Ling.

From the corner of his eye, he saw many people looking at him, with encouragement and encouragement in their eyes.

Lu Yanhe thanked them one by one with his eyes.

Huang Kairen has already come to the stage to receive the award. Holding the trophy, he stood in front of the microphone and took a deep breath.

"I hope I don't look too embarrassed now." Huang Kairen said with a smile, "I'm so excited."

He took two deep breaths, then clenched the trophy in his hand with red eyes, and said: "I want to say with confidence that I won this award without any guilt, but this time the actors nominated with me They are all amazing, I don’t need to tell you how awesome they are.”

Many people did not expect that Huang Kairen would say these words on stage.

"I even don't know how to face Yan He. If it weren't for him, I would definitely, never act in the movie "Rouge". Then maybe he will be the one to accept the award today."

After Huang Kairen finished speaking, the audience burst into laughter.

Lu Yanhe couldn't help but laugh.

"I rejected this movie and this role three times." Huang Kairen said, "Then Yan He persuaded me to come back three times. He told me at that time that this would become the masterpiece of my acting career. I thought at the time Yes, you wrote the script, of course you said that. If I really believed it, I would be a fool. Now that I am holding the first Best Actor trophy in my life, I just want to go back to that time and tell me at that time, Well, you are really stupid."

Lu Yanhe's frustration and discomfort slowly subsided.

Huang Kairen's acceptance speech was a bit funny and attracted him.

"Before I went on stage, I told Yan He that if I won the award this time, I would help him film a movie for free. It was just a joke and I wanted to liven up the atmosphere, because we were both very nervous in the audience. —Speaking of which, it’s my first time to nominate. Forget it, I’m nervous. You’ve been nominated so many times, Yan He, why are you still nervous?”

Faced with Huang Kairen's ridicule, Lu Yanhe resisted the urge to raise his middle finger, and just pursed his lips and made a helpless gesture.

Huang Kairen took a deep breath, "But, I want to say it very seriously now in front of everyone, if you ask me to act in your next movie, I don't want a penny in salary. Anyway, I don't have an agent now, no People can take care of me.”

Crazy, crazy.

Huang Kairen also won the award, and he was very happy.

Lu Yanhe shook his head and clicked his tongue.

Huang Kairen's acceptance speech almost ended with an interaction with Lu Yanhe. When he got off the stage, he suddenly reacted and was shocked, "Damn, I forgot to thank the director and Sister Bi Ge!"

Bao Zhenzhu smiled and said, "It's okay, they won't mind. Everyone can see that you are just too excited."

Huang Kairen: "...Ah."

Five minutes later, Ning Xiulian won the Best Actress award.

Chen Bige applauded very calmly, showing no trace of disappointment.

On the contrary, Xu Yiren couldn't hide his disappointment.

The Best Director Award was awarded to Ning Zhiyuan, who has been making martial arts movies and finally returned to the public eye with "Nine Yins".

Best movie, a huge upset, went to the animated film "Angry Crow," and everyone was stunned.

Another Phenom Awards has come to an end.

Lu Yanhe once again missed the award.

Lu Yanhe did not go to the celebration party that followed. Everyone thinks that he doesn't really need to care about these awards, but he does. He was worried that he was too disappointed and couldn't hold back his expression, so he simply didn't show up.

When he walked out of the venue and was about to get in the car to go home, many media reporters swarmed over and asked him questions.

"You didn't win the Best Actor this time. Do you have anything to say to the fans who support you??"

"Neither "Rouge" nor "Paths of Glory" won the Best Picture Award. Many netizens on the Internet said it was a huge upset. Do you think it is reasonable for "Angry Crow" to win the award?"

…

Lu Yanhe was not interested and sighed, but he still stopped.

"Brothers and sisters, I didn't win the award today and I was already feeling very depressed. You still ask me so many questions. I'm really depressed."

Six thousand words guaranteed, two thousand words extra.

Can you... let me add a little more, friends.
