Ji Ming didn't know if if there was no wish from the koi, would he be even more excited and even enthusiastic when he heard his name.

Yes, he won the prize.

Peking Opera master Shang Changrong presented the list of ten people for the leading role award at this year's Magnolia Drama Awards, and the youngest Ji Ming was the first prize.

His citation for the award was: "He is a newcomer to the theater industry, but he made a big splash on his first stage and left a very deep artistic impression on the audience. In this year's new work, he successfully created a complex, profound and thick character, and achieved great success, also received high praise, and even triggered a nationwide drama movie-watching boom.

He has been praised by authoritative media as a role model for young theater actors, and has also been recognized by industry experts as an outstanding artistic talent with comprehensive theater ability. He insists on facing the audience, facing the role, and facing himself on the stage, and will continue to contribute new wonderful stage images to the audience.

He is an actor of the National Theatre of China and the actor of Pu Yi in "The Last Emperor", Ji Ming. ”

In fact, the first sentence of this award speech is enough to make people think of Ji Ming.

Too many people have complex hearts that are difficult to understand.

Ji Ming is too young, only 21 years old, he has already won two magnolias, in fact, according to the award design of magnolias, a person can only take three at most - the rookie protagonist and the rookie supporting role, you can only take one of them, and you will not be a rookie in the second year. The supporting actor award and the leading actor award are left, and there are days to come. Ji Ming can be said to have no delay, he will take the newcomer and supporting role in the first year, and the protagonist in the second year, the honor that Magnolia can give him is only the difference between winning it once or a few times.

He himself could feel the gaze with complicated emotions, except for the local drama teacher next to him.

"Congratulations, Ji Ming, hey, it seems that the more you don't care, the more you can concentrate on the performance, the more likely you are to get affirmation. ”

“...... yes, thank you. ”

Lan Yingying, who just won the supporting role, as well as Zhu Man, as well as many friends in the drama industry who he knew and didn't know, all watched him stand up at this time, and there was a feeling of witnessing the rise of the giant - the momentum was too fierce, in the past year, the terrifying results at the box office and awards of the movie, with "The Last Emperor", he has become the most appealing drama actor in China, and now he has won the first prize of the Magnolia Leading Role Award, which is almost like an announcement.

A shining new Buddha on the stage has ascended to heaven.

I took the certificate from Mr. Shang's hand, chatted a few words in my ear, and then I had to chat with other people's award presenters, shake hands, congratulations, thank you, thank you.

"Thank you, Mr. Shang, thank you Magnolia Organizing Committee, thank you Beijing People's Art Theater and Director Ren Ming, thank you for the training and support of the National Theater, and thank you to all the partners behind the stage of the crew of "The Last Emperor".

Well, director Zhou Shaohong of the National Theatre, in the acting class of the Central Academy of Drama three years ago, told me - I hope you will play Zhou Chong in the youth version of "Thunderstorm". I can't accurately describe the emotions at that time, it was too excited, it was too turbulent, it was a great beginning for me, and then I starred in the main play of "Thunderstorm", and I was fortunate to participate in the first performance, participated in the Chinese opera version of "The Last Emperor", participated in the Renyi version of "The Last Emperor", and of course I also did some other work in other fields, met a lot of teachers, and received a lot of favors.

I think I am very lucky, and the fortunate thing is that every bit of my effort, every drop of my sweat, every bit of my investment, and every bit of my dedication have repercussions and rewards. This also encourages me to be worthy of this luck, to work harder for this luck, to be more dedicated, to sweat more, and to gather more focus.

Just like this certificate of honor, all my past achievements are a new spur, and I will take them as expectations and encouragement. Ji Ming will not stop, thank everyone, thank the times!"

Cong Mingsheng, chairman of the judging panel, applauded and smiled.

It is difficult to say that Mr. Zhang's "public relations" played a particularly key role, in fact, Ji Ming's selection was originally thought to be controversial, after all, he only won two awards last year, and he won it again this year, will it endanger Bai Yunlan's reputation, or make people feel that the stinky foot posture of the big star in the drama circle is too much. But when it was actually discussed, teachers from different units and different majors almost did not acquiesce to Ji Ming's award.

Gao Ruisen, a drama literary critic from Ji Ming's alma mater, said bluntly: "It's not because he is a student of Chinese opera that I say this, to be honest, we evaluate last year's drama and don't give Ji Ming an award, which is equivalent to saying that there are no actors in the drama who can win the award, or directly saying that Magnolia is not about the performance, but about the factors outside the market." ”

There are many people who agree with it.

The next controversy is more controversial, that is, the first prize - according to the standards of the high judges, in fact, among these highly artistic stage performances last year, whether it was opera, drama or others, the repercussions should be Ji Ming's performance. But the large row of senior actors in the back, some of whom have been acting for decades, is it appropriate to put them behind Ji Ming? Is it necessary to do that extreme?

Many people think it's unnecessary, just put him on the list, and that's it.

Of course, there are also people who are extremely insistent on putting Ji Ming in it.

The deputy general manager of the Shanghai Drama Art Center insisted on it: "We don't give the greatest recognition to a work that has achieved great success in both artistry and commerce, this is not a choice that conforms to the trend of the times, some people think that Ji Ming is a film and television star, so he can't give him too much honor, which makes me feel very stunned, shouldn't we encourage film and television stars to return to the stage and return to the theater now? With Ji Ming alone, we expect that in all the hundreds of performances of "The Last Emperor", including those groups in which he did not appear, it will attract tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of new drama audiences, that is, those who have never seen a drama before.

If you don't praise him as much as possible, encourage him, and set up a banner for such an actor, what else do you want to think? Give him the first award, not only will not damage Magnolia's reputation at all, but also expand Magnolia's influence. ”

After the controversy, it was Cong Mingsheng's turn to coordinate - the result was obvious.

It is still necessary to admit it.

......

Zhou Shaohong did not participate in the Magnolia Award this time, of course, she was also very concerned at home in the capital, although there was no live broadcast, but there were really many friends there, and they all instructed her to tell her the results as soon as possible.

"Take it, take it!"

"First Prize!"

"First name!"

News came one after another.

"What?" Brother-in-law Zhou looked at Zhou Shaohong's suddenly enlarged smile: "Took it?"

Zhou Shaohong haha: "I took it, the protagonist award, or the first prize, haha, I didn't expect it, I thought it would be good to win the award." ”

"I told you, I'm nervous, "The Last Emperor" is so successful and doesn't give an award, isn't it a self-defeating mouthpiece?"

Gave him a blank look: "You are so powerful, do you think he can take plum blossoms?"

"Well, I'll do the math, oh, there's a difference of 1,000 yuan in pocket money this month, I can't figure it out. ”

“...... Go farther. ”

Zhou Shaohong ignored him, and quickly picked out a few pictures from the pictures sent by her friends, and prepared to post them on Moments - a year ago, it was also about this time, she posted the Moments of Friends where Ji Ming won the double award, and a year later, she posted them again in the Moments, and she still had a sense of ceremony.

Before the results were sent, the sound of the message was dripping.

"Sister Zhou, Ji Ming's thank you speech mentioned you. ”

"You were named by Ji Ming. ”

"It turns out that you picked Ji Ming to play "Thunderstorm"?"

"Okay, Bole and Maxima, a good story in the drama world. ”

Ah, Sister Zhou paused there, and her heart was so complicated. She will not be hypocritical, she did give Ji Ming a start, which is very important to him, including the background of the drama actor, and also lays the foundation for Ji Ming's powerful personality. But frankly speaking, with Ji Ming's level and the platform of Chinese opera, it is inevitable that she will take the lead, she is not rescuing a piece of gold from the sand, she is just that he brought him out of the gold mine earlier.

She helped Ji Ming, and Ji Ming also gave her a lot of rewards - just as Ji Ming's closest person in Mandarin, she and Vice Dean Ge have too many communication opportunities with Zhou Yuan, and she has been promoted from deputy director of the dean's office to a regular position, which is absolutely inseparable from this layer.

It can only be said that with this fate, there is no need to calculate so much.

"What's wrong again?"

When Ji Ming said his words of thanks, he mentioned that I had selected him into the group at the beginning. ”

"Yo," Brother-in-law Zhou's eyes widened: "You are on the podium in disguise?" ”

"Okay, it's time to celebrate Ji Ming, how to celebrate?"

"What do you think of adding a thousand dollars to my pocket money?"

“...... Up to three hundred. ”

"Gotta be, grateful to Ji Ming, accompany me...... Thanks to my wife, who has been with me all my life, I have the courage to go out and have fun. ”

Zhou Shaohong can't do anything about this living treasure husband, the children are so old, she quickly edited a circle of friends, and the sentences are almost the same as last year.

The younger brother Ji Ming won the first prize of the Leading Role Award at this year's Magnolia Drama Awards for his performance in "The Last Emperor", and I would like to thank all the leaders and friends for their consistent support and help. "Scattering flowers" "Scattering flowers"

- "Congratulations, congratulations. ”

- "Sister Zhou is also on stage, haha, congratulations." ”

- "This brother recognizes the value." ”

- "Cow beep." ”

Last year, she still had to worry, some people would think that she was hot, and she really regarded herself as Ji Ming's sister, but this year she didn't have to worry. Although Ji Ming did not thank her solemnly, at this time, being able to say it by name means that people 100% agree that Zhou Shaohong is his Bole.

No doubt.

......

Ji Ming won the Magnolia Drama Award and won the highest honor in drama. "—This is the media in Shanghai.

Mandarin actors performed in human dramas, and Ji Ming won the Shanghai Magnolia Leading Role Award. "—This is from the Kyori media.

"The Last Emperor, which set off a whirlwind of watching dramas in Ning, starring Ji Ming won the first prize of the Magnolia Award, an authoritative drama award!" - this is from Jinling Media.

The copywriting of Jinling media can be applied to Hangcheng, Chang'an, Tianfu, Jingwu and other major cities that have set off the "Last Emperor" craze. Therefore, the benefits of the drama landing are also reflected in this, the local media will feel that you have an emotional connection with them, so they are willing to focus on the report, even if you report Magnolia in previous years, that is, a pass, which is like this year, many local big media have given the headlines of the entertainment version, and by the way, talk about "The Wandering Earth" and "Immortals" or something, giving an impression to those ordinary people who can't be reached by the Internet - yo, now there is a big star, called Ji Ming, the movie is amazing, the drama is amazing, and he has won a lot of awards.

How do ordinary people know whether an actor is a cow beep or not? It doesn't rely on the media to blow it? It depends on the mouth. Those who like to read newspapers and don't like to watch TV and surf the Internet, many of them are the favorite bragging beeps in various communities and villages, and they go to work in the small garden at the head of the village three times a day.

Ji Ming's name also spread out of their mouths.

"Hey, speaking of celebrities, there's a little young one recently, it's amazing......"

"You say, if everyone is like this Ji Ming, isn't it? Like him, we, as parents, won't be so worried about our children chasing stars, right? What I'm afraid of is chasing stars and chasing the kind of people who have no quality, what kind of medicine to take today, cheating tomorrow, and breaking the law the day after tomorrow, how can that kind of person be a public figure, the country just wants to govern them well and make the entertainment industry a bright future. ”

- It's like the entertainment industry is bright, and your children can soar.

This wave of awards is still of great significance to Ji Ming. In fact, just like that comic, digging a well, digging is still a hoe away from the spring, digging a hundred pits is useless, you must get that hoe - Ji Ming is also the same way, the box office, Cannes, Montreal, are constantly getting closer to the spring, but if there is no such word-of-mouth on the ground, he will always be just an online superstar, a superstar in the stratosphere.

......

After the awards, Ji Ming visited several seniors in the Shanghai drama industry, Cong Mingsheng definitely had to go, and Mr. Ma also had to go, all the way down, he was familiar. Then turned to the Whampoa Small Theater, and the crew was already almost in the small theater and the surrounding scenery.

The big scene is the dance troupe - called "Red Star Dance Troupe" in the film, and then Yang Ming's house, and there are some street scenes that have to be moved to the other two streets in Shanghai to shoot.

"I heard you've won the jackpot again?"

"Haha, it's an award in the field of stage plays, didn't I act in "The Last Emperor" before, the play of the same name from Bertolucci's film. Ji Ming smiled, in a good mood: "Who told you?"

"The crew was talking about it, and it was hard for me not to hear it. ”

Ji Ming nodded clearly, obviously every bit of Ji Ming's achievements will become the confidence of "Mo".

"Huh?" When Ji Ming looked up, he happened to see the little brother who was about to say something, not wanting to pat him on the back: "What's wrong?

Alice turned to look at the translator, her shoulders plummeting.

"Okay, I'll tell you, don't ask him. Some people in the crew may not cooperate very well in the set and preparation due to poor communication. But it didn't affect the entry into the city, and I can settle down. ”

Deception?

Ji Ming was honest, he was embarrassed, his first reaction was not anger, but curiosity - strictly speaking, bullying students, or bullying the small, the big power bullying the small, the senior bullying the newcomer, Tan Ziyang had been bullied before, but he didn't.

At the time of "Thunderstorm", the atmosphere of the crew was very good, and there was no such bad thing at all.

Later, I didn't have a chance, the cow beeped.

This was a foreign subject to him.

"Let the translator tell me about it, it's serious, Alice, you're the director, maybe because I'm not doing a good job and making some people think that you lack authority on the set, and that will definitely affect efficiency. ”

Alice is not a weak person: "I just feel that whether I come to China to work, or Chinese people go to Italy or Europe to work, in fact, it is the same, you have to face this challenge, you can't be naïve to think that everyone in the crew is 100% enthusiastic about their work, this is also a problem that I have to overcome." Even when I was filming "Lazaro" in Italy before, in Italy itself, I still had to deal with the crew. ”

"Perhaps, but I should know what they did. ”

Ji Ming's insistence, Alice couldn't refuse.

She worked with the translator and told her what was going on.

Alice must be more than Ji Ming, and the entire set, she arranged it according to the storyboard she had designed before. So she has to direct the staff of the set and props, she is a foreigner who doesn't understand the language, she is not well-known in China, and she is still a woman, so she will inevitably be despised by some things that do not know what to do, and people will fool her, saying that this and this can't be so open, and the intensity is not good. Then he was quite presumptuous in muttering about her in Chinese, giving some disrespectful nicknames or something.

"Have you communicated with Wen Yan and Lin Junheng?"

These two are producers, Wen Yan was invited by Ji Ming, Lin Junheng was invited by Beijing Culture, and Ji Ming didn't know him very well.

"I mentioned it to Mr. Lin, but it didn't work. ”

Ji Ming's brows furrowed tightly: "I'll find out, and I'll talk about it at a meeting in the evening." ”

He is not in a particularly bad mood, although it is the first time to serve as a producer and producer, but this psychological preparation is still there, but he didn't expect that the first thing he knew about this matter was the object, and it turned out to be the director!!

What about the others?

Ji Ming asked Tang Fan and Lin Ran to find someone to ask, find someone to talk to, and then go to find it themselves. At present, the crew is in charge, the two producers, Wen Yan is more responsible for art and shooting, and Lin Junheng is responsible for the operation of the crew, and there are three assistant directors, plus the person in charge of the crew, Ji Ming is the only one who carries it.

One by one, I asked.

The big boss came to talk to you, which is the proper meaning of the question, when everyone entered the producer's office, they all smiled, and when they came out, they couldn't see the smile at all.

Ji Ming didn't get angry, he asked carefully, as an "atypical actor" who is familiar with the whole crew of "The Wandering Earth", Ji Ming is no stranger to the crew, he just surrounded the middle little by little, and slowly asked what the director said when he came out of the set, how did you achieve it for her, and there were obstacles in communication?

One question or two, you will understand everything when you know it in your heart.

When the meeting was held below, it was held in the set, and even Ji Ming didn't ask for a mobile phone or anything - just follow the daily confidentiality regulations of the crew.

"First of all, thank you all for your hard work and preparation for so long. ”

"It's not hard. Someone shouted.

Everyone was happy, and Ji Ming was also happy, but Lin Junheng's producer, executive director Li Zhou, and drama director Zhou Hailong, who were standing next to him, didn't have any smiles on their faces, standing there, they didn't fit in.

"It's good if it's not hard, it's not hard to show that everyone is enjoying it, confident in our play, and enthusiastic ......" Ji Ming said good things for five minutes, and then changed the conversation: "But when I came today, I didn't fully feel this positive atmosphere." So I would like to take this opportunity to tell you that our group, from the first day of filming, the number one person is not me Ji Ming, it is director Alice Lowach, I must also listen to her when I am filming, and the whole crew, whether you are an Italian from Alice's team or a teacher in China, must also understand this.

The snake can't be without a head, the head of the crew is the director. But as soon as I came, I knew that some people didn't cooperate because the director was a foreigner and a lady, and even said something that was not on stage, which was absolutely not allowed. There are three of them, the props and set and the crew, and I have no intention of letting them come out to show the public, so they have all left the group. ”

There was silence.

Needle drops can be heard.

Ji Ming has only been here for a few hours, and he has opened three of them, and his attitude is so tough that it seems to remind everyone - this is a crew decision-making level composed of young actors and foreign directors, but the power to decide whether you get out of the house or not is not discounted in the slightest.

Ji Ming glanced at the people who were holding their breath.

"I really like the harmony within the crew, because I am from a drama background, drama is different from movies, when the movie is released, everyone no longer wants to do it, including the director, after editing, there is nothing to do. But drama is different, even in the process of performance, the actors, directors, sound effects, props, sets, and so on must be on high alert, because they have to participate in the whole performance. Therefore, the drama crew must be responsible for every part and have a sense of responsibility.

So I'm the same with the film crew, no exceptions, every part, every person, you're going to be in the final credits, and you have to concentrate on doing this work. No one is allowed to spoil the crew's environment,-stirring sticks, rat droppings, black sheep...... All of this, leave our crew, and I will tell all my friends and teachers in the industry what this is. ”

It was quiet again.

Although Ji Ming didn't use particularly sharp words, it was still enough to deter everyone.

"The front-line staff don't show the public, and those who are in charge of things still have to make a public statement, Lin Junheng producer, Li Zhou, deputy director, Zhou Hailong, drama director, three please. ”

For this public demonstration, Ji Ming's phone was directly called to the private mobile phone of Mr. Song of Beijing Culture, Li Zhou was from Xitian, Ji Ming only asked him, "Do you need me to let Zhou Xiyan and Zhang Jun come to tell you?"

As for Zhou Hailong, if it weren't for his too active attitude, and the director of the crew also needed such an eight-sided delicate look, Ji Ming would have planned to replace him.

"I'm going to apologize to Director Alice first......"

When the three of them made a statement, Ji Ming stood on the side, swept over and over without a smile, and the people who were swept felt that their skin had been stabbed. The majesty of this scene before the start of filming can be regarded as letting Ji Ming know that being a producer, even if it is just one of them, cannot be the same as when he was an actor, and he can't hide from what he should do. For the crew, they also recognize the fact that Ji Ming is not a clay Bodhisattva, he is angry and fierce.

The next day, Ji Ming and Alice both temporarily left the group and flew directly from Shanghai to Rome to attend the award ceremony of the Italian Film David Award - one of the most important awards in Italy. "Immortals" was shortlisted for two foreign language film awards: Best Foreign Film and Best Foreign Actor.

Because when he was robbed in Rome before, the chairman of the organizing committee specially helped him speak, and later invited him to attend through Alice, and he readily agreed.
