Chapter 502
Ye Zheng found that he still underestimated Xiao Qi's influence, and when Xiao Qi appeared on the stage, the entire hall resounded with warm applause and cheers. "Xiao Qi! Xiao Qi!" someone shouted. "Xiao Qi, I love you! I'm your fan!" I don't know which boy shouted, causing a burst of laughter. If it's a concert, it's normal, but at this kind of awards party, it's still quite interesting.
"I love you too. Xiao Qi smiled: "It's a pleasure to meet you here, a new song of mine "Cold Rainy Night" is for everyone, this is the first time I have sung it!" She is a guest performer, not much to say, the accompanying music sounded, Xiao Qi opened her mouth to sing: "Walking in the rain, the blue street lamps are gradually revealed, looking at each other, silently hugging, in order to find the past, to find the warm past, disappeared." I am by your side on a cold rainy night, I hope you will know, but I know that my heart has changed compared to the beginning, only far-fetched to get along, I don't want to go home on a cold rainy night, I am afraid to look at your back, only smile bitterly and look at the raindrops, you need to know to make it clear, but unfortunately I didn't dare to try......"
THE SONG "COLD RAINY NIGHT" FROM BEYOND WAS SUNG BY XIAO QI FOR THE FIRST TIME HERE, AND YE ZHENG NODDED LIGHTLY, VERY SATISFIED WITH XIAO QI'S PERFORMANCE. Xiao Qi is simply a girl born for rock and roll, and today she came here as a guest, wearing not very exciting, quite casual clothes. But when she stood on the stage and sang, in the beat of the guitar drums, under the shaking lights, a warm atmosphere of rock and roll suddenly swept away in all directions centered on her.
The atmosphere in the whole hall was driven by Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi waved his arms and shouted in between singing: "I wish everyone better and better results in the film industry!" After the song "Cold Rainy Night", Xiao Qi withdrew in a cheer, and another singer came up to the stage to sing. Ye Zheng was surprised to find that he actually knew this girl! Lu Hong! More than half a year ago, in Hengyang City, Ye Zheng and Zhou Ke took Lu Hong's father's taxi, and thus got acquainted with Lu Hong, the girl who once had low self-esteem and did not dare to go out, the girl who once blocked the door of the house because she disturbed her neighbors because of her singing, and the girl who was obsessed with singing...... Ye Zheng didn't expect to meet her here!
The song that Lu Hong sang was the song "That Sea" that he gave to Lu Hong, this song, Ye Zheng had already given it to Lu Hong at that time, originally Zhou Ke planned to personally focus on cultivating Lu Hong, but later gave up the renewal contract of Mai Tian and founded Time and Space Music with Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng gave this song to Lu Hong, no creation fee, Lu Hong enjoyed the right to sing this song. For Ye Zheng, saving a good voice with low self-esteem is more important than a song. When Zhou Ke was in the wheat field, she had entrusted her to the company, so Lu Hong also received some attention and was discovered for her good voice. Subsequently, she successfully entered the training class of Wheat Field Music.
That's all Ye Zheng knew, and he learned it when he was chatting with Zhou Ke. Then I didn't know about Lu Hong's situation. But now it seems that Lu Hong has also undergone tremendous changes in the past six months, and it is not at all like Ye Zheng when he saw her at that time. She is still chubby, and she is still so unattractive that she can even be said to be ugly, but she stands on the stage, singing affectionately, revealing a sunny and confident look, and from her body, she can no longer see half of her inferiority complex.
She sang on the stage, waved her hand to the audience, and loud applause rang out, and someone called her name. Someone was singing the climax along with her. It seems that she is a little famous now, Ye Zheng smiled, he was very happy to see that a girl who used to be like that has become what she is today, as if he had witnessed a chrysalis break out of its cocoon and become a butterfly. "It's not easy for this girl. Cheng Yijian said.
"Huh?" Ye Zheng looked at him curiously: "Do you know her?" "Lu Hong, you definitely haven't watched a singing entertainment show that was very popular some time ago, Huaxia Female Voice." Cheng Yijian said: "Lu Hong is a semi-finalist, but he lost in the semifinals. The most touching thing is her story, from a girl who didn't dare to go out to meet people, to now being loved by many people, she is not easy. This song "That Sea" is her masterpiece, it is said that it is a song given to her by a person, she once said in a program that this song has a very important meaning to her, once in her most difficult time, it was that person who gave her hope, and it was this song that gave her strength and warmth. ”
"Huh. Ye Zheng smiled. "This song is very good, isn't it?" Cheng Yijian asked Ye Zheng. "That's good!" Ye Zheng nodded: "I like it a lot." After Lu Hong finished singing, he briefly expressed his blessings to everyone and left here. After nearly ten minutes of jubilation, everyone gradually quieted down, waiting for the announcement of the four most important awards, Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Micro Film.
"Xu Qi, say it quickly, there is Wang Ying's Best Actress. Wang Ying poked Xu Qi's arm and said. Xu Qi nodded and began to mumble: "There must be Wang Ying's Best Actress, there must be Wang Ying's Best Actress......"
Zou Kang began to read out the list, four nominations, no Wang Ying. Xu Qi stuck out his tongue: "Beauty, I'm sorry." Wang Ying smiled indifferently: "It's okay, sister doesn't care about this, when I look back, my sister can earn twenty or thirty thousand yuan for a drama performance, is this kind of small prize a hair?" Ma Huijie said to Wang Ying: "Sister Ying, you must win a grand prize in the future!
"Mmmmmmmmmmmm The beautiful woman who won the best actress came to the stage to accept the award, a very beautiful girl, dressed up young and beautiful, returned to the team after winning the award, and gave everyone a warm hug, quite excited. "Here's Best Actor. Xu Qi asked**: "Are you nervous?" "What do you say?"** asked rhetorically. "Uh...... You said you were very confident, so you shouldn't be nervous, right?" Xu Qi said. ** looked at him with disdain: "It wasn't the time to be nervous, didn't you notice that my voice was trembling now? Zhou Bin is the director and the actor of the actor, if you say that in this regard, he is indeed a very talented person. A suppressed cheer rang out in Zhou Bin's team, and Zhou Bin's face also showed a smile and confidence. This is their fourth nomination, and this time they will definitely win the Best Actor award. He has a strong sense of self-confidence in his performance.
However, then he heard Zhu Danzi read out the second person to be nominated,**. Zhou Bin's face was instantly ugly, last year, that is, ** and he won the Best Actor nomination at the same time, but the last person to win the Best Actor was **! This year, he came with confidence, and he was nominated again with **! Must win! Zhou Bin clenched his fists, or even if he couldn't get it, he must not be **! Otherwise, he felt like he would go crazy! He didn't care about the last two nominees
November 15th. Yenching Film Academy. The 4th College Student Short Film Festival was held at the Yenching Film Academy, and the award ceremony was held this evening, starting at 19:00 and expected to end around 21:00. Cheng Yijian and the others took leave and came to Yenching Film Academy with Ye Zheng. There are also **, Wang Ying, Ma Huijie, Du Xiaoyun, and Xu Qi and other key members of the crew.
Three days ago, Cheng Yijian, as a director, received an invitation from the jury and asked him to take some people from the crew to participate in the micro film festival. Cheng Yijian, who received the invitation, was lying on the top bunk in the dormitory reading a book, and after hanging up the phone, he screamed and jumped up. Then his head hit the ceiling hard, and with a roar of pain, he collapsed on the bed again.
The invitation issued by the jury means that the micro-film "I Heard" has at least one nomination, or one of the twenty excellent works. The 4th College Student Short Film Festival set up a total of 12 awards. They are Best Micro Film, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Original Music, Best Animated Micro Film, Most Creative Micro Film, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Editing Award, and Best Cinematography Award. There will be four nominations and one final winner for each award. In addition to this, twenty excellent works will be selected among the works that have not won awards and nominations.
Only the crews that have been nominated and qualified for outstanding works will be invited by the judging panel. Cheng Yijian informed everyone in the crew of the news at lightning speed through chat tools, phone calls, etc., and even Yang Lan and Luo Wen made a special call. After learning the news, everyone was very excited and wanted to go to the awards party, but the jury team only gave ten tickets, so after discussion, Ye Zheng and Cheng Yijian went in with the tickets. The rest of the people who followed the people who went to play were outside watching the big screen live at night.
"There are more than 2,100 entries in this college student micro film festival, more than 300 more than the previous one. With the holding of the micro film festival, its influence is also expanding, this time the micro film festival is jointly organized by 20 universities and five film and television companies across the country. Cheng Yijian pointed to the billboard outside the award hall and said. Ye Zheng nodded, looked at the five film and television companies, and unexpectedly saw Five Elements Film and Television. Just three days ago, Time Music and Five Elements Film and Television reached a series of cooperation agreements and formed a cooperative alliance.
Time and Space Music handed over the script of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", and there are other commercial partnerships. Five Elements Film and Television has opened up many channels of sharing to time and space music. As a result, several high-level executives of Time and Space Music learned about Ye Zheng's other identity, a movie screenwriter. Two scripts, one helped Wuxing Film and Television win the box office of 950 million so far and immediately broke 1 billion, and the other "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" has become the basis of cooperation between the two sides and an important bargaining chip for time and space music negotiations. Ye Zheng's contribution to the music of time and space has once again added a strong stroke. Not only the music team admired Ye Zheng, but the managers led by Sun Zhaofu also admired the young chairman of the company for a long time. Let's ask, how many people in the world are there who start from scratch and build a huge company at such an age with their own talent and hard work?
"Huh, there is even Kyushu Film and Television!" Cheng Yijian frowned and said. Kyushu Film and Television Company was founded by Zhou Bin's father, Zhou Hongxin, and when Zhou Bin had a conflict with them, he was slapped by Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng also noticed it and nodded slightly. It seems that this time, they also received an invitation from the jury, and it is said that Zhou Bin learned from his father that there was more than one nomination for their micro-film "Etude of Love". Cheng Yijian said again.
"It must be through the back door!" Mr. Xu said. "Don't say that, Zhou Bin's character is not very good, but he still has a hand in making movies. ** said: "I probably know the script of this "Etude of Love", which seems to be about two college students male and female classmates who have been good friends since high school, and the girl likes the boy but is embarrassed to confess directly, so he lets the boy pretend to be his boyfriend in order to practice falling in love and getting close to him, and finally the boy also likes the story of the girl. ”
"Practicing falling in love? What kind of thing? Isn't it the story of a woman seducing a man!" Xu Qi said disdainfully: "Can we have our deaf and mute creativity? Hmph, I curse them that no matter how many nominations there are, they won't get any awards." By the way, **, I think there should be a nomination for your Best Actor, right?" "It's hard to say, there are so many entries, even if there is one excellent one out of a hundred, there are twenty, and the competition for each award is fierce and cruel, even if it is a nomination, it is difficult to get. ”
** smiled: "So when you participate in an award ceremony like this, unless you have strong confidence or know the result in advance, don't have the mentality that you will definitely win the award." Otherwise, the higher the expectations, the higher the disappointment. Last year, I saw a crew go to the awards party with flowers and streamers to celebrate after winning the award...... They thought they could win one or two awards, but in the end they only got one award for excellence. Although it was also a good thing, compared to their original expectations, this gap was too big, and the group went happily, and finally left gloomily. ”
"I don't think it's a big problem. Wang Ying said with a smile: "**, when the micro-movie is in the online movie, you will come to the stage to accept the award." Cheng Yijian said. Ye Zheng squinted at him: "Hey, I found that you can fantasize better than Xu Qi?" "Ah, what did Brother Ye tell me to do?" Xu Qi was discussing with ** the academic question of which beauty here is white-skinned, and suddenly heard Ye Zheng mention him, thinking that he was calling him.
"It's okay, you can continue to look at the beauties. Ye Zheng said. "Oooh. Xu Qi turned his head and continued to discuss with **: "I think the girl you just talked about, beautiful is beautiful, but looking at the face, you know that she has a bad temper and is difficult to serve, such a girl can't have it." "Uh-huh!" ** nodded sympathetically: "You're right, hey, look at the girl who is drinking juice over there, it's very pure!" "It's really good!" Xu Qi's eyes lit up.
"Go and ask her for a phone number?" "Don't go now, I'll go again when our crew comes on stage to accept the award, how face-saving does it seem?" Xu Qi said: "Let's stop there and say, sister, give me a phone number, and I'll guide you on how to make a movie another day." She will definitely be very excited to hand over her phone number, maybe even ask an hour earlier, Ye Zheng and the ten of them enter the hall with admission tickets, this is a theater of the Yenching Film Academy, which can accommodate more than a thousand people. In fact, generally invited crews can only get about three tickets, and there is a saying that if the jury gives a certain crew more than five tickets, it means that they are likely to have more than one nomination. Ten admission tickets. This number makes the people in their crew look forward to this awards party more and more intensely, are there three nominations? A group of people happily found their place and sat down, Du Xiaoyun said with emotion: "I have taken on a lot of scenes over the years, but it is the first time to come to the scene of this kind of awards party. Although it was an awards party for micro-films, it was also very memorable for me. But you are different, you are still very young, and there is still a long way to go. You are also very good, and you will definitely be able to make a difference in the future. Aunt Du is looking forward to seeing you win the Hundred Flowers Golden Horse Award. ”
"We'll definitely be in touch with you in the future if there's a role for you. Ye Zheng said with a smile. "Well, I like to perform, and although I open a restaurant, acting is my lifelong career. Du Xiaoyun said. "Cut, career?hehe......" A voice came, and Ye Zheng didn't have to look back to know who it was, Zhou Bin.
"What do you mean?" ** turned his head and looked at Zhou Bin lightly. Zhou Bin's eyes flashed with resentment, but he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, just snorted coldly: "I didn't expect you to be invited by the jury, it seems that you also have your nominations today? But don't be too happy! Having your nomination doesn't mean that you can win the award!" He looked at ** and said: "**, don't laugh, you won the best actor last year, it doesn't mean that you can still get it this year! We didn't win the best short film and the best director last year, but we will definitely get it this year!"
"Good luck. ** said lightly. Zhou Bin snorted coldly, then looked at Ye Zheng, gritted his teeth and said: "Boy, you don't have to look calm, I don't know how thick the sky is, I will let you see today, what is a good movie, and what kind of talent can make a difference in the future." My future, our future, is not something that you rabble can imagine!" After that, he waved his hand to the group of people who followed him: "Let's go, when we come to the stage to receive the award, they will look good!" A group of people followed Zhou Bin to the front row, they have a relationship with the jury, and it is relatively simple to get some top positions.
"It's funny, do you know who gave them so much confidence?" asked Ye Zheng with a smile. "They also came in with ten people, and they got the same number of tickets as us, does that mean they will also have three nominations?" asked Ma Huijie. Xu Qi said a little unpleasantly: "I said it all, no matter how many nominations they make, they can't get any of them!" "Don't talk nonsense." Ye Zheng looked at someone sitting in front of them and said, "Honestly wait for the start of the party." ”
Not long, Ye Zheng and the others saw another crew from Huaxia University of the Arts. This time, there are about 50 invited crews at the college student micro film festival, and the organizer Yenching Film Academy has special rights to place some uninvited crews and audiences to come in to watch the awards party, in addition to some media reporters. The influence of the college student micro film festival is increasing, and the college student micro film festival in the past two years has also attracted more and more media attention.
As the time got closer, more and more people came, some media reporters also came, and the big screen outside the theater of Yenching Film Academy also began to broadcast live. Even, there is a live broadcast on the Internet, but there is no live broadcast on the TV station. Suddenly, the bright lights went out a lot, the light dimmed, and the whole scene suddenly became much quieter. On Ye Zheng's side, Cheng Yijian originally looked calm, but now he looked very nervous, kept rubbing his hands, and muttered: "God bless, God bless us, we must get an award." ”
"Don't look like this, right?" Ye Zheng said with a smile. "You don't know, it's a very important thing, and if we can win an award, preferably if I get a nomination, I'll have enough reasons to convince my parents to agree to me going into directing. Cheng Yijian said: "I want to make a movie, but I don't want to have a fight with my parents, of course, the best way is to persuade them to agree with my idea." "Well, that's good. Ye Zheng said: "But why don't you want to get a best director?" "If there is, of course it's okay!" Cheng Yijian laughed quietly and said: "But I don't count it, and even if there is a director's nomination or award, this award has half of your credit." ”
Ye Zheng smiled and shook his head: "That's your ability, it has nothing to do with me." I'm here today to see the excitement. "Maybe there's your best original screenplay." Cheng Yijian said. "It's harder. Ye Zheng said: "Because the script is different from the movie, a good script, if there is no good team, is likely to be made into a very bad thing." But that doesn't negate the quality of the script. I watched the best original screenplay of the previous three editions before I came, and the award-winning scripts of two of them made a micro-film that didn't even get a good work. "Then if our micro-film wins a best micro-film or the best creative micro-film, you will go on stage to accept the award. Cheng Yijian said. Ye Zheng squinted at him: "Hey, I found that you can fantasize better than Xu Qi?"
"Ah, what did Brother Ye call me for?" Xu Qi was discussing with ** the academic question of which beauty here has white skin, and suddenly heard Ye Zheng mention him, thinking that he was calling him. "It's okay, you can continue to look at the beauties. Ye Zheng said. "Oooh. Xu Qi turned his head and continued to discuss with **: "I think the girl you just talked about, beautiful is beautiful, but looking at the face, you know that she has a bad temper and is difficult to serve, such a girl can't have it." ”
"Uh-huh!" ** nodded sympathetically: "You're right, hey, look at the girl who is drinking juice over there, it's very pure!" "It's really good!" Xu Qi's eyes lit up. "Go and ask her for a phone number?" "Don't go now, I'll go again when our crew comes on stage to accept the award, how face-saving does it seem?" Xu Qi said: "Let's stop there and say, sister, give me a phone number, and I'll guide you on how to make a movie another day." She's going to be very excited to hand over her phone number, and maybe ask for an autograph!" "Well, when I win Best Actor, I'll ask for it." Said **.
"Didn't you say don't have too high expectations?" Xu Qi wondered. **Pouting: "Didn't I say it, unless I have a very strong self-confidence, I have a very strong self-confidence, is that modest and low-key outside just now?" As they spoke, suddenly the light in the entire room disappeared completely, plunging into darkness.
