Chapter 113: But I refuse

The Golden Phoenix Award is an Oscar-style model.

First I was interviewed, then I walked the red carpet, then I signed my name on the publicity wall, then I took pictures, and finally I entered the venue.

Wu Kai didn't take this step, he came in early.

Right now, he's sitting in the first row, and it's not full yet.

His expression was blank, and he raised his head slightly to look at the brilliant lights above the stage.

He didn't know what the consequences would be if he did that.

No, he knows.

is nothing more than being suppressed out of the film and television industry, and he can't turn over in this life.

Unless he has the talent of Fang Bei, he can also bring talents like Nie Fang, Luo Wei, and Pan Xiao around him.

But does he have any other talents?

He wished he had.

But he is not a fool who swells blindly.

So...... Do you want to give up?

Throw your courage aside and sit back on the so-called "well-known young literary film director" who is at the mercy of others?

His memories came eleven years ago.

That year, he was nineteen years old, and he was nineteen years old.

It was their first day of college, the day he had just met the fat man surnamed Liu.

At that time they were assigned to a dormitory.

Liu Mang wears tyrannosaurus sunglasses and wears a famous brand.

Wu Kai was thin and weak, wearing a cheap T-shirt that had been washed and faded.

Liu Mang is like the rich second generation on TV, arrogant and doesn't take anyone in his eyes.

Including him Wu Kai.

But later during military training, in order to save money, Wu Kai, who was hungry, fainted.

It was Liu Mang who carried him to the infirmary.

That night, in the dormitory, it was also the first time that Liu Mang took the initiative to talk to him.

"Skinny monkey, why did you come to this school? ”

β€œ...... Because I want to make movies. ”

"What do you want to make a movie? Making a movie requires money and connections. Do you want to make the kind of literary film that specializes in smearing our country and go abroad to win awards?"

"No, I want to make a commercial film, our own commercial blockbuster in China!"

"I didn't find it, skinny monkey, you are quite a pursuit. But it's a pity that I will be the one who will become a big director of domestic commercial films in the end. And not only in China, but also to create a new film genre! Let the whole world know my Liu Mang's name!"

......

"How?"

"It's the second again, the first won't be the ...... again"

"That's right! the first place in this short film shooting exam is still me Liu Mang~"

"Someday ......"

"Haha! You can never surpass the skinny monkey~ How can a fat man be surpassed by a thin man?"

......

"Why!"

"I didn't know why, I just saw it at the teacher's place and used it. ”

"So you're not going to have a face?"

"I'm not like you, my family has no money and no connections, I can only rely on myself. ”

"So you're going to hug the teacher's thigh?"

"Lu Yue likes me. ”

β€œ...... Skinny monkey. No, Wu Kai. From this day on, you and I will be severed. From now on, don't say you're my friend. I, Liu Mang, can't afford to lose that person. ”

β€œ...... Yes, I will let you understand that I am better than you. ”

............

Lu Shengyan patted his disciple, who was also his son-in-law, on the shoulder: "I will prepare the acceptance speech in a moment." ”

"Hmm. Wu Kai replied lightly.

Lu Shengyan didn't say anything more when he saw his son-in-law's response, he hurriedly walked towards the backstage.

Today's events have already been arranged.

Today is the most important step for Wu Kai to gain a firm foothold, and it is also the most important step for him to hope for the future.

............

In the nail salon, the three-shot bonister sat in front of the store and smoked in a daze.

In the store, Kira Yoshikage, who didn't dare to be angry or speak, smiled bitterly: "Three, you are blocking the door of the store...... What else is I going to do in this business?"

"You still have business in this shop? It's been a few days since I came back, and I haven't seen anyone come to the door. Liu Mang flicked the cigarette ash disdainfully, and picked his feet by the way, "Isn't it just to keep the smoke from you, why are you still dissatisfied?"

Next to him, Chen Yongren still looked at the gloomy sky with his eternally melancholy eyes and muttered to himself: "You said that I, a young actor who had just debuted, why did I suddenly win the Venice Best Actor......

He still feels like he's dreaming.

Fang Bei smiled: "Why do you want to do so much, if you take it, you take it, do you still want to be an Oscar-winning actor?"

Liu Mang glanced at Chen Yongren: "Come on, it's good to get a Venice actor." Those cats and dogs in China dare to call the actor any pheasant award they take, why do you say the actor is so worthless?"

Fang Bei raised his eyebrows: "I said fatty, did you take gun medicine today? ”

After that, he suddenly realized that he seemed to understand something: "I understand, you are afraid that Wu Kai will not win the award, and then you will not be able to kiss him, right?" ”

"!" Liu Mang said angrily: "Lao Tzu is afraid that he will win the award." That kid is not a good person, I really don't understand why you want to speak for him on Weibo, he hired a navy to hack you. ”

"But the navy is not powerful. Fang Bei sighed.

It's okay to do anything (about 8:20 rounds?)

Can such an unprofessional water army be mixed in the industry?

It can be said that in recent years, there have been more and more crooked melons and cracked dates in the navy industry.

Kira Yoshikage in the house turned on the TV: "The Golden Phoenix Awards are about to start, why don't you come in and take a look?"

Liu Mang was not interested: "The Golden Phoenix Award? That place is more than money, you may not be able to get rich, it depends on whether the company behind you gives it or not, and what is the point of watching. ”

"Why is it boring?" he said, Fang Bei became interested instead, "Let's go, I'd like to see who can win the award now." ”

For example, what kind of poker face actor, staring at the dead face shadow queen and so on, don't be particularly interested.

He even wanted to see their acceptance speeches.

See how cheeky they have to be to claim the prize.

To be honest, put the acting skills of the "surprise expression" when accepting the award into the play, and they will not completely lose the credibility of those domestic awards.

Liu Mang reluctantly followed him into the house, and muttered as he walked: "Isn't it just those little traffic bacon brought out by Old Man Lu's company, you said that those are also over thirty years old, why haven't their acting skills improved at all?"

Fang Bei turned his head and choked him: "Let you count one, two, three, four, five when you act every day, and you can't exercise." ”

After a long wait, when the host chatted awkwardly and the guests smirked, the award finally began.

Fang Bei and the others, who were yawning, also raised their minds and began to complain frantically.

"Why didn't they get invited? Their brother won several Oscars and Venice, but they didn't make it to the Little Chicken Award?"

"Nonsense, no one invited our crew, okay, even if they invited you to go?"

"If you don't go, a fool will go. It's like playing monkey fun. ”

"Hmm, this actress is very beautiful, what is she playing?"

"Hell knows, but I think she's had plastic surgery. ”

"It's nonsense again, this nose is paddled at a glance, as well as the chin and the corners of the eyes. I didn't dare to grin when I didn't see her laugh, because I was afraid that my face would collapse. ”

"You said that her face was stiffened like this, how can she act?

"Alas...... As long as there is a woman when Miss Su is watching TV, she likes to pick thorns, and this is over for a while, and that is also over for a while. But it's weird, she's said to be quite cold, why do you like this when you watch TV?"

"Lao Fang, did you watch it together when she watched TV?"

"yes, what's wrong?"

β€œ......”

Isn't that nonsense!

Miss Su has a good impression of you, you guy definitely likes to stare at other beautiful girls when watching TV.

Can Miss Su not say a few sour sentences?

A natural beauty is dangling in front of your eyes, why do you go to watch the plastic surgery on TV?

It's good that people didn't give you a face!

Liu Mang's sour comparison.

The whole nail salon smells of lemon.

Fang Bei's expression was very lonely: "You know a fart!sigh...... You don't know what I've given up for you......"

For the dream of your group of sand sculptures, Uncle Ben didn't even want a whole street of faΓ§ade houses and a whole residential building!

That's a lot of real estate that adds up to seven or eight hundred thousand yuan a month just for rent!

Liu Mang, if you don't look like a dog, are you worthy of me?!

Liu Mang was so angry: "I finally know why Director Zhang looks at you like that." ”

I don't know the blessing in the blessing, and the thief is especially beaten!

"He was jealous that I was young and handsome. ”

"Pull it down! Forget it, watch TV first, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. ”

The best male and female lead has already begun to be awarded on TV.

Fang Bei raised his eyebrows: "This woman's ...... Isn't it the woman who read the lines and counted the numbers that was exposed before?

Liu Mang said indifferently: "That man can win the actor with one expression throughout the whole process, people just count, at most he will drop eye drops into his eyes, which is already dedicated enough." Could it be that you discriminate against women and others? ”

"Less, the best picture is coming out, I think it's "The World Is Not Worth It", what do you think?"

"Although Wu Kai is not good, this movie is okay, and I feel that he is also him. ”

"Hah, then it seems that you can't kiss him. Fang Bei smiled and said, "But what are you praying for here? He won the award, you don't have to kiss him, shouldn't he be happy?"

"I'd rather kiss him than see him win the award!" Liu Mang clasped his hands together and said something in his mouth, "Old Wang blesses...... Blessed by the Right Goddess...... Bless Wu Kai and don't win the award......"

Fang Beile was no longer happy: "You also believe in that thing, believe in those things, it is better to believe in the Flying Heavenly Pasta Divine Sect with me." ”

"But those work, didn't all of our two movies take off after worshipping him?" Liu Mang retorted to him, "Let's not say that they don't show their spirits, so what if Wu Kai's money is not enough?" It's not right, this time the chief judge is his father-in-law, and there is also Xu Kuangfu's old man in the review......"

............

At the Golden Phoenix Award ceremony, Wu Kai looked boredly at the lively atmosphere around him.

Looking at the smirks of those around him, he suddenly felt a disgusting emotion.

"The winner of the Golden Phoenix Award is...... Wu Kai "People Are Not Worth It"! Congratulations to Director Wu!

The voices of the award presenters on the stage came.

Wu Kai suddenly felt a burst of emptiness.

The cheers and applause around him became distant to his ears.

He slowly walked up to the stage and received the glittering golden trophy from the guest.

He scanned the hall.

In the front row, there is Xu Kuangfu's face smiling and applauding.

Next to him was the smiling face of his father-in-law, Lu Shengyan, who was pleased.

Wu Kai's brain went blank.

There was only one sentence in his head:

"Do you want to be a coward for the rest of your life?"

Close your eyes and open them again.

There was no confusion in his eyes.

He glanced at Lu Shengyan below, Xu Kuangfu, the famous domestic directors, and the brightly dressed "actors" present.

Finally, he looked up at the blinding lights.

He picked up the microphone and said in a calm voice: "I used to think that I was not wrong, I used to think that I was the best director of the younger generation, I used to think that I was close to my dream." ”

Lu Shengyan's expression changed, which was different from the original testimonial!

Wu Kai continued: "But there is one person, I am not as good as him. He's better than me, he's better than me, he's better than me, and his team is better than mine. ”

"But he didn't come today because his film didn't make the cut. ”

The applause in the audience stopped, and countless people began to whisper, they didn't know what Wu Kai wanted to say.

They all know who the person Wu Kai is talking about, but don't everyone have a tacit understanding that the person who is not close to the circle does not exist today?

The smile on Xu Kuangfu's face disappeared, and Lu Shengyan's always elegant face became distorted: "How dare he ......!"

Wu Kai ignored the commotion, he continued: "Winning this award, I will become the leader of the young generation of domestic film directors, I can rise from now on, and decades later, I can also sit below as a judge and continue to evaluate those young directors who can satisfy me." ”

"But I want to make a movie. ”

"But I want to make good films. ”

"But I want to make my own blockbusters, I want to go out, I want people outside to know that in addition to Zhang Luo, there is a good director named Wu Kai. ”

"But ......"

He glanced at Lu Shengyan, who had a hideous expression, and there was indescribable happiness in his heart.

"I refuse. ”

Put down the trophy and drop the mic.

He walked off the stage.

He bypassed Xu Kuangfu.

He bypassed Lu Shengyan.

He bypassed the "actor" and the "actress".

He walked down the aisle.

He left them all behind.

He walked out of the auditorium.
