Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

"Mingming, do you want to go?"

When the two were having dinner in the evening, Yu Dongqing asked about it.

"Go, why don't you go?" Meiliang said:

"I'm leaving for Xiamen right away to film. The main filming location of the film is there. And you, after going to Taipei to attend the award ceremony, you can stop by Xiamen for a few days. If I win the Best Actress Award, help me I brought the trophy back, but I don’t have time to go anyway.”

"Dog 13" was originally filmed in Xi'an in that time and space. When Yu Dongqing made her suggestion to film in Xi'an, she was rejected by Meili.

Xi'an is too cold for filming in winter, so Xiamen is more suitable.

And compared to Xi'an, which is relatively dense, Xiamen looks young and enthusiastic, making it more suitable for youth movies.

"Although the theme reflected in this film is a bit heavy, I didn't want it to be very gloomy. The tone of youth is originally very sunny and bright, right? Husband?"

These are bright words, and Yu Dongqing expressed his understanding.

Now that his wife said this, Yu Dongqing agreed.

"Okay, I'll go to Taipei and then come back to Xiamen to visit you!" Yu Dongqing stood up and asked:

"Can you still eat it?" I'll scoop you another bowl. "

"Husband, don't tempt me. I don't dare to eat. I'm afraid of gaining weight."

On December 24, which was Christmas Eve, Meimei rushed to Xiamen with the crew, and Yu Dongqing drove her to the airport in person.

Mingliang was a little reluctant to leave, but she was too embarrassed to be intimate in front of so many people in the departure hall. She just told him to take care of his health at home and call or video chat frequently.

Well, Yu Dongqing agreed.

"Don't forget the little bean sprouts and little bean bags, and feed those goldfish!" Mingliang reminded.

Feed the goldfish?

I guess it won't take long before it goes into Xiaodou Bao's belly.

But he still agreed.

Yu Dongqing left on December 28. She got up early in the morning, with light snow falling outside. She drove the bean sprouts and bean bags to her father-in-law's house in Houhai, and left a message on WeChat for her daughter Yu Tongtong. Then she rushed to Daxing Airport with her suitcase. Head to Taipei.

Also traveling with them were Li Yunjie and Liu Heping.

Li Yunjie was nominated for the Best Actor Award, while Liu Heping was nominated for the Best Action Award for "The Swordsman".

Although most of the film's action designs were designed by Yu Dongqing, the film's action designers were signed by Liu Heping.

It was the first time for both of them to be nominated for the Golden Horse Award, so they were extremely excited, especially Liu Heping, who was excited but also a little nervous.

If you really win the award, will you live up to your reputation?

"Lao Liu, don't belittle yourself. I think you gave me a lot of good opinions and suggestions during this filming process. Besides, you may not win the award yet." Yu Dongqing consoled me.

"Impossible! If we don't win this time, then the judges of the Golden Horse Awards will be as blind as the judges of the Golden Rooster Awards in China!"

Liu Heping’s words are to the point.

In the annual Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards to be held in January, the film "The Swordsman" has been nominated for seven awards, including Best Director. However, according to private rumors, most of the awards are expected to be left behind.

Yu Dongqing didn't care about this, but Liu Heping was very unhappy.

This is crazy.

Such a good movie can't win awards.

Excuse me, is there any royal method? !

"Okay, let's not talk about this." Yu Dongqing stopped Liu Heping's complaints and closed his eyes slightly.

The business class cabin is full.

After more than three hours of flight, the plane landed steadily at Taoyuan Airport.

It's raining outside.

The three of them exited the station and were surprised to find that there were many fans waiting to pick them up in the waiting hall, and there were reporters beside them who kept taking pictures.

Seeing the three of them coming out, fans rushed up one after another. A beautiful girl with a ponytail smiled and gave Yu Dongqing and the others flowers.

"Thank you, thank you." Yu Dongqing expressed his gratitude.

Sign autographs and take photos.

Yu Dongqing is surrounded by the most fans.

However, Yu Dongqing is still very patient in meeting fans' requests.

"Mr. Yu, I am Xie Meilian, a reporter from Feihong Entertainment. Your film "The Swordsman" was nominated for six Golden Horse Awards. It is the most nominated film this year. How many of them will win the awards in the end?" A female reporter squeezed in and asked loudly with a microphone.

"Miss reporter, you asked the wrong person. You want to ask the Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee." Yu Dongqing said with a smile.

oops

Too nervous.

This was her first time interviewing a celebrity alone, so she hurriedly asked: "Mr. Yu, which award do you think you can win the most?"

Before the reporter could answer, the fans nearby became dissatisfied and began to boo. A boy said loudly:

"Miss reporter, why are you asking such a retarded question? It must be the best song award. Who doesn't know the song "A Smile in the Sea"?"

Fans laughed.

Indeed, as soon as the song "A Laugh in the Sea" was released, it immediately swept across the Taiwan Strait and three places. It dominated the famous music charts in Baodao for a month, creating a history.

Moreover, at the upcoming annual Taiwan Golden Melody Awards, this song has now been shortlisted and will definitely win the Best Song of the Year award. The songwriter Yu Dongqing will also compete for individual awards such as Best Composer and Best Lyricist.

Of course, whether people come or not is still one thing.

Anyway, people will not attend the Mainland's Top Ten Golden Melody Awards and Hong Kong's Top Ten Song Awards awards shows, especially the Mainland, which has already announced its withdrawal from competition for various awards.

Not only will I not go, but you should also stop judging me about the best this and that.

Seeing that the young female reporter was a little embarrassed, Yu Dongqing hurriedly came to the rescue: "Miss reporter, winning awards is important, but participation is more important. The Golden Horse Awards ceremony is a grand event for Chinese filmmakers around the world. Winning or losing is not important, what is important is performance. The two sides of the Taiwan Strait are like one family."

"So, Mr. Yu, what's your impression of Taipei?" Xie Meilian asked again.

Miss reporter, I haven’t even started shopping yet, and you’re asking this question?

Looks like a real novice.

Yu Dongqing didn't want to talk to her anymore. He looked at the rainy sky outside and said, "It rains a lot in Taipei."

Farewell to the fans, Yu Dongqing and the other two took the subway to the city center, but part of the time the subway ran on the ground.

The three of them sat on their seats and looked at the scenery outside.

The rain is still falling.

"It's raining all the time. It's so refreshing to see rain in winter," Liu Heping said.

He is from the Northeast and sees only goose feathers and heavy snow in winter.

"I saw on the Internet that it rains a lot in Taipei, especially in winter when it rains most of the time." Li Yunjie explained.

"Oh my God, I feel so wet."

Yu Dongqing listened to the two people's chat, said nothing and just looked at the scenery outside quietly.

In winter, I really come to Taipei to watch the rain.

The rain is not heavy and gentle enough. It is not like the continuous rain in summer. The temperature and humidity are high and unpleasant.

It's not like the cold winter rain in the south of the Yangtze River, which drops from the front to the dawn, making people sad and melancholy.

No wonder Meng Tingwei can sing such beautiful songs.
