Chapter 211 I hope you are happy
Chapter 211 I hope you are happy
Lin Xiaoxiao took the water and drank it gracefully.
She looked at the brightly lit award ceremony stage and asked Li Bowen in a lost and pitiful voice: "Bowen, do you think I can win the Best Actress award this time?"
Li Bowen touched her hair and said lovingly: "Of course, I watched your movie, and your acting skills are still solid."
Lin Xiaoxiao was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Bowen's evaluation: "It's just stable, no breakthrough?"
After being in the entertainment industry for so long, the achievement she most looks forward to is winning this award for Best Actress.
Before, she had made many movies and was nominated several times.
But none of them won any awards.
Lin Xiaoxiao spent a lot of money on this shoot.
She abandoned her previous noble and beautiful image and made herself ugly and fat.
The pictures that her haters on the internet use to attack her were all taken from this movie!
She made such a great sacrifice just to break through her acting skills and gain new cognition and recognition from the audience and judges.
Unexpectedly, Li Bowen only said one sentence and his acting skills were very stable!
This was simply a curse on her.
Li Bowen is not a person who would lie. Seeing that Lin Xiaoxiao was unhappy, he could only patiently comfort her: "This is already very good."
"..."
Lin Xiaoxiao shut up in disappointment, then a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.
What does Li Bowen know?
His evaluation does not count!
Anyway, she's going to win the Best Actress award today!
Not only did he have to live up to his efforts and sacrifices during this period, but he also had to prove his excellence to Gu Sili.
Hit Yun Ning’s face!
Isn’t he just a screenwriter of a low-budget movie?
How can anyone compare to a big star like her!
Under Lin Xiaoxiao's extremely strong expectation, the award ceremony officially began.
The female host and the male host walked onto the stage.
"Dear guests, audience friends from all over the world, hello, welcome to the 48th National Best Film Awards Ceremony..."
The passionate opening remarks drew thunderous applause.
After a brief warm-up between the two hosts, the formal award ceremony soon began.
"Next, we are going to present the Best New Director Award!"
"Everyone knows that the quality of a film depends first and foremost on the director's overall abilities. New directors provide a constant source of energy for artistic creation, and we all need to encourage and appreciate them. Now, please take a look at the shortlisted works that will be screened..."
The next second, clips of each shortlisted film began to appear on the big screen.
"Chen Bin's 'Happiness Quintet,' Xu Chuang's 'The Long Winter,' Zhu Long's 'Colorful Lights,' ... and Qi Heng's 'Loving You for More Than Two or Three Days.'"
The clip shown in "Loving You Is Not Just Two or Three Days" was shot by Qi Heng. At the end of the film, the male and female protagonists smiled at each other and ran towards each other.
Through the big screen, everyone can feel the beauty and romance of two people falling in love and finally getting married.
Anyone in the entertainment industry has heard of this romantic comedy movie which was a box office dark horse.
Although the filming techniques have some shortcomings, the acting skills of the male and female protagonists are also a bit immature.
But the whole story has a very good framework structure, and the design is clever and fascinating.
It is not easy for such a common romantic comedy film to stand out among so many other themes.
After all the films were introduced, the host picked up the microphone again, and her sweet voice echoed throughout the awards ceremony: "Dear audience friends, now we are about to unveil the mystery of the award. The winner of the 48th National Film Best New Director Award is..."
As the host's drawn-out voice sounded, the camera quickly switched to the four shortlisted new directors.
Qi Heng, who was in the audience, clenched his fists nervously.
Yun Ning sat next to him and patted his arm gently to make him relax.
Gu Sili, who was wearing a mask next to him, coughed immediately and took back Yun Ning's hand that was patting her arm.
Gu Sili originally wanted to accompany Yun Ning to formally attend this important occasion and declare his sovereignty to everyone.
Unexpectedly, Yun Ning didn't give him this opportunity at all.
The girl’s explanation was well-founded: Today’s event is mainly about awarding prizes.
As the president of Gu's Company and the richest man in Baicheng, once Gu Sili brings her out, the headlines will be about Gu Sili's mysterious female companion.
Rather than the award itself.
This will distract from the main topic.
Therefore, Yun Ning gave Gu Sili a strict order to keep a low profile.
If you must come, wear a mask and disguise yourself.
Gu Sili, Yun Ning's husband who just got the marriage certificate and is protected by law, cannot reveal his identity!
He was feeling aggrieved, but when he saw Yun Ning carefully and considerately comforting Qi Heng, he suddenly became furious.
He immediately snatched Yun Ning's hand back.
Yun Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and had no choice but to let Gu Sili hold her hand.
At this time, the host finally spoke.
She said loudly: "The winner of the Best New Director Award is Xu Chuang's "The Long Winter"!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone at the scene looked at the new director and applauded.
"..."
Yun Ning clearly felt Qi Heng beside her and lowered her head in frustration.
She whispered to comfort him, "It's okay. This is only your first time making a movie. It's okay if there are some shortcomings. I've seen Xu Chuang's movie. It's a suspense movie. Although the box office is not as high as ours, it has a deep social impact. And the director's filming technique is really good. Let's keep up the good work."
"Ok, I know."
Qi Heng nodded.
In fact, before the award ceremony, he also felt that he would not win the Best Newcomer Award.
But there is always a little expectation in my heart.
Now that the dust has settled, it’s impossible not to feel sad.
But it can be adjusted.
Just like Yun Ning said, this is his first time making a movie.
He will have many more opportunities in the future!
Being shortlisted is already a great encouragement.
Qi Heng quickly adjusted his mood, watched the new director go on stage to receive the award and give his acceptance speech.
Then, the award ceremony continued.
The male host said excitedly, "Next, we are going to present the award for Best Actress!"
In addition to the Best Actor, the Best Actress award is the most anticipated award tonight.
Because it represents the highest quality film actresses in the country.
The others immediately sat up straight.
Soon, the trailer began playing on the big screen.
"How Are You" by Ren Ziyi.
"Letter from Afar" by Tang Xiaohui.
“Apple Blossom” by Yang Yanyan.
"Fusang" by Lin Xiaoxiao.
Hearing Lin Xiaoxiao's name, Yun Ning looked around, but did not see Lin Xiaoxiao.
This award is so valuable, why didn't she show up?
Gu Sili beside her seemed to see what she was thinking and explained in a low voice: "Lin Xiaoxiao will not show up."
Yun Ning asked in confusion: "Why?"
Gu Sili looked at her and said patiently: "Lin Xiaoxiao has gone abroad. You won't see her again at this stage."
"go abroad?"
Lin Xiaoxiao's entire acting career, including her home and even her boyfriend Li Bowen, are all in China. Why would she want to go abroad?
Gu Sili pinched Yun Ning's cheek and said, "That night, nothing really happened between Lin Xiaoxiao and me, but her presence made you unhappy, so I arranged for her to go abroad. Yun Ning, I hope you are happy."
