In the end, Wen Muye was disappointed, and the Best Creative Short Film Award was won by a local short film called "Magaba Sea".

Expectations and excitement turned to disappointment, but they quickly subsided.

After all, at the beginning, he never thought that his first film would be shortlisted for a palace-level award ceremony like the Golden Horse Awards, and later learned that he was shortlisted, and he felt more incredible, especially after watching several other short films that competed with him, he felt that his film did not have any advantages, so he actually did not have much expectations.

The reason why I am looking forward to and excited is more because of the influence of Zhang Bufan, after all, his best new actor was won with "Stone", which gave Wen Muye the illusion that "maybe the judges will have extra green eyes for my movie".

In the end, the moment of the award made him understand that the illusion is just an illusion and will not come true, so there will be disappointment, but it is not serious.

Moreover, his trip to the Golden Horse Award this time was not without gain.

At the celebration dinner after the award ceremony, many people took the initiative to make friends with him, judging from the business cards handed over by the other party, they were all companies with good capabilities, among them, there were even large companies like Huayi Brothers.

Obviously, these companies are well aware of what it means to be a competent director, and to make friends with and even invest in Bunmakuno now is actually investing in the future.

At the dinner, Zhang Bufan was not able to meet Liang Leming and Lu Jianqing, and he didn't know if they had found a financier who was willing to invest in them, or if they had other plans.

There were a lot of people looking for him at the dinner, but they were all ordinary contacts, but what surprised him was that he actually met an acquaintance - Xu Caigen.

The veteran actor was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the Golden Horse Awards for his wonderful performance in "Reunion", which is also the only award that "Reunion" was shortlisted for at this Golden Horse Awards.

Zhang Bufan knew the news, and sighed at the time that he really couldn't figure out the timeline of "Reunion", but at that time he thought that Mr. Xu Caigen should not come, but he didn't expect that people would come.

Teacher Xu Caigen was obviously not suitable for such an occasion, he was alone in a corner, and no one went over to communicate with him, so Zhang Bufan simply leaned over, and the two chatted easily about some interesting things during the filming of "Reunion", especially when it came to the play directed by Zhang Bufan instead of Wang Quanan, Teacher Xu Caigen gave Zhang Bufan a thumbs up again.

At the end of the dinner, Zhang Bufan sent Mr. Xu Caigen back to the hotel, and then returned to his residence.

Seeing Zhang Bufan get in the car and leave, Mr. Xu Caigen couldn't help but sigh, it is not easy for an old actor like him to come out with a movie like "Reunion" for such a time, let alone appear at the film festival in the future, there may be few opportunities to continue to shoot similar film and television dramas.

An old actor like him who has no "value", ordinary people treat him the same as he showed at the dinner party - no one cares, Zhang Bufan can actually pretend not to know him and spend his time on other more valuable people, but Zhang Bufan doesn't, because he looks at him a little "isolated", so he has been by his side and never said anything, and finally sent him back in person, such a young man, to be honest, is rare.

Zhang Bufan didn't know what Mr. Xu Caigen felt about him, for him, what he did tonight was purely out of habit, and shouldn't respecting the old and loving the young be the most basic traditional virtues of the Chinese nation?

It was late at night when he returned to the hotel, but Zhang Bufan didn't feel sleepy at all, lying on the bed, and the trophy for the best new actor was placed on the side of the bed.

Lying on his back, his eyes facing the ceiling above, his eyes were blank and thinking.

The acceptance speech at today's award ceremony, just like last year, was not prepared in advance, but a momentary feeling.

As he said, movies have brought him too many different beauty, not only in movies, but also in his life.

For example, Tong Liya.

For example, Guan Hu, Huang Bo, Yan Ni, Ning Hao, Xu Zheng, Tian Xiangzhuang, these friends.

For example, the famous Four Seasons Hall of Jingying.

For example, the students who come to the cafeteria to talk about movies.

For example, Liang Leming and Lu Jianqing, who came to him in the past two days.

These are all things that the movie brought to him, different people and different things, which gave him a different interest and excitement in life.

While experiencing these wonderful, Zhang Bufan's mood is also changing.

From the slightly resistant compromise at the beginning, to the willingness to be pushed later, and then to the active participation now.

This process is a process of appreciating the scenery, but also a process of changing mentality.

As he said at the award ceremony, he wants this feeling of good and wonderful to last, which requires him to become more proactive, and this is the main content of his thinking.

With a sudden wave of his hand, he took the trophy from the bedside table and held it to his eyes and looked at it carefully.

"Two years, 5 scripts, whether it is the Golden Horse Award for Best Adapted Screenplay or the Berlin Best Screenplay Silver Bear, I can confidently and proudly tell others that it is a script written by me Zhang Bufan. ”

"The box office of "People in Embarrassment" broke 100 million, and I can tell others very unceremoniously that it is because of the script I wrote that this story has the potential to exceed 100 million box office. ”

"As for 'The Golden Heist' and 'Killing,' I'm also very proud to tell people that these two scripts are definitely among the top screenplays and have the qualifications to compete for any award. ”

"But you ......"

He looked the trophy up and down again.

"To be honest, I don't think I won it with absolute strength, none of the three actors is worse than me, it can be said that compared with them, I don't have any advantage in acting, I can win this award, it's more because of my status, right?"

"This feeling of being unjustifiable...... Well, it's not very cool, and it makes me feel worse than losing that book called "Cold War". ”

"So, it's time to think of a way to improve my acting skills! It's just that how can I improve it? Find Uncle Tian? No, no, no, he is a teacher in the directing department, if I know that I don't want to learn directing with him, but I want to go to learn acting, what if I get angry......

"Take on more dramas and improve your acting skills through acting accumulation?" No, what I lack is the foundation, and if the foundation is not laid, I will accumulate blindly, and it will be easier to deviate from ......"

"Then how do you get it? It's really not professional, and it's hard to even find a way to improve!"

"Huh, there seems to be a way......
