After Xiao Yao and his entourage entered, their own staff waiting on the side led everyone to their respective seats. The crew is seated to the right of the third row, which is not the most popular seat, but it is also very good.

When Xiao Yao and others entered, the red carpet show outside had not yet ended.

The awards ceremony is a more formal occasion, and the stars are wearing dresses, so it is not easy to move around at will, but the awards ceremony has not started yet, and it is still okay to talk and chat.

Xiao Yao and others are also shortlisted crew members around their seats, and there are many celebrities among them. Even if I haven't seen it in private, I've always seen it on TV. After Xiao Yao and the others sat down, they actively or passively greeted the stars in the front and back rows, Xiao Yao and several other Chinese stars helped introduce the American members of the crew next to them, and finally sent each other some blessings for winning awards, and the time before the award ceremony basically passed.

At less than eight o'clock, the red carpet show ended, all the guests attending the award ceremony entered, and the lights on the stage were all extinguished, indicating that the award ceremony was about to begin.

The Golden Dragon Award ceremony has a performance program, and Xiao Yao's movie theme song sung by their band is one of the performance programs tonight, but their song is an English song and is not scheduled as the opening performance at the beginning, so Xiao Yao and the band members don't need to leave early to prepare.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the lights above the auditorium dimmed, and everyone knew that the award ceremony was about to officially begin, and the scene quickly fell silent.

The Golden Dragon Awards ceremony began with the usual posters of some of China's best films over the years, followed by clips of films nominated for this year's awards, and then the opening performance.

"Please host of this award ceremony..."After the opening performance, the voice of narration sounded in the live stereo.

Everyone in the audience applauded, and then there was a burst of music in the stereo. Amid the sound of music and applause from the audience, two presenters in formal dresses and microphones walked onto the stage from the passage at the back of the stage. The number of hosts of the award ceremony is not fixed, the year before last Xiao Yao participated in three, it seems that there are only two this year.

The two hosts walked to the front of the stage, the music stopped, and the applause of the audience also fell.

"This year, Brother Ben is a guest host," Zhao Rui, who was sitting beside Xiao Yao, gently turned Xiao Yao with his elbow, tilted his head and whispered, "Aren't you quite able to speak? When will you go to the awards ceremony to be the host and have fun?"

The two hosts on the stage are both stars familiar to Chinese audiences. Among them, the female host is called Tong Yishu, who works for CCTV and is a professional host. And the male host's name is Xu Ben, but he is a well-known actor who has won the best actor.

"Brother Ben is not a guest as a host!" Xiao Yao replied in a low voice, "Brother Ben has done a lot of careers, from voice actor to resident singer, and has hosted galas and award ceremonies a lot of times. He is an all-round talent hosted by film and television songs!"

"Brother Ben is omnipotent, are you omnipotent?" Zhao Rui said, "What kind of profession he has done, which one haven't you done? No, I guess you haven't done it as a waiter serving dishes, but what can't you do?"

Xu Ben is in his forties, he is a late-blooming actor, and he is really popular until he is middle-aged, and his early life experience is very rich, which can also be said to be relatively bumpy. He has done many professions and is an inspirational model in the Chinese entertainment industry.

"Besides, didn't you also take the host certificate?" Zhao Rui continued, "Don't practice it, your certificate is just for fun?"

"It's just for fun!" Xiao Yao nodded with a smile, and suddenly shrugged his shoulders and said, "Sit down!

Although Xiao Yao was chatting with Zhao Rui, part of his attention was always on the two hosts on the stage, listening to their speeches. Although the two hosts had not mentioned Xiao Yao or Zhao Rui's names, Xiao Yao knew from the meaning of their words that he was going to be named soon, so he immediately reminded Zhao Rui.

After the usual welcome remarks, the two hosts began to introduce some of the guests who attended tonight's awards ceremony. When introducing the celebrity guest, the main camera camera will turn to shoot the person introduced in the guest seat, and the large screen behind the stage will also show the image of the celebrity guest.

Zhao Rui knew that Xiao Yao's reaction was faster than his own, and as soon as he heard Xiao Yao's words, he immediately sat upright, and his face was replaced with a smiling expression.

After introducing several core figures and top celebrities in the film industry who have won multiple nominations tonight, the two hosts turned the introduction to young people.

"I just introduced several predecessors and mainstays in the Chinese film industry, and now we want to introduce a few outstanding young people in the film industry. Tong Yishu said, looked at Xu Ben and said, "Brother Ben, when it comes to outstanding young people in the film industry, who are you most impressed by?"

"That must be Xiao Yao!" Xu Ben said without thinking.

"Oh~" Some ordinary spectators attending the awards ceremony in the back row of the auditorium let out a burst of cheers.

"Surely, there is no hesitation at all!" Tong Yishu smiled and continued to ask, "There are many outstanding young people in the film industry now, why are you so sure that he is he?"

"Cows!" Xu Ben stretched out a hand and took turns bending his hand and said, "The eighteen-year-old self-written, directed and acted in a short film won an award abroad, and the first feature film he starred in won two nominations for Best Newcomer and Best Actor at the Golden Dragon Awards the year before last, and won the Best Newcomer Award, the animated feature film of the director and screenwriter won the Best Animated Feature Film at last year's Golden Dragon Awards, and this year's Golden Dragon Awards, his film was shortlisted again." And for this year's shortlisted film, he is not only the starring role, but also involved in directing, writing, soundtrack, and action design. ”

"Wow~"

"Oh~"

With Xu Ben's introduction, exclamations and even louder cheers rang out from the ordinary audience in the back row. Even among the celebrity guests in the front row, there were some applause and cheers.

"There are young people in our Chinese film industry who can act, and there are also young people who can be behind the scenes," Xu Ben said as if summarizing and explaining, "But young people who have good acting skills and are doing so well behind the scenes, it seems that there is no one else to find except him, right?"

"Well, I agree!" Tong Yishu nodded, turned his head to look at the audience and said, "But Xiao Yao didn't come to last year's Golden Dragon Award, I don't know if he came this year?"

"Here! where is it!" Xu Ben pointed in the direction of Xiao Yao.

The camera turned in the direction Xu Ben pointed, and Xiao Yao stood up and bowed to Xu Ben on the stage with his hands folded on the big screen, and then smiled and waved to the camera.

After sitting down again, Xiao Yao stretched out his fingers and pointed at Zhao Rui and the others beside him, and exaggerated the "behind-the-scenes" mouth shape. The cameras at the scene also pointed at Zhao Rui and Xu Fei.

"Xiao Yao seems to be reminding you that he is not the only one who can act and be behind the scenes!" Tong Yishu smiled at Xu Ben, "Zhao Rui and Xu Fei next to him are also very good young actors, and they are also involved in the screenwriting and action design of the movie." In addition, Chen Xiaoting is also one of the screenwriters of the movie. ”

"Okay!" Xu Ben smiled and nodded, "Tonight, we should indeed put Xiao Yao, Zhao Rui, Xu Fei and Chen Xiaoting together." ”

"Why do you say that?" Tong Yishu continued.

"Because the four of them are a team," Xu Ben said, "and the film they nominated for tonight is based on a new extreme sport called parkour." As far as I know, parkour was started by a team of four people, and all four of them were involved in both the front and back of the film. So, they're here as a group tonight!"

"Saying this, I suddenly feel that our young filmmakers in China are very powerful. Xu Ben looked at Tong Yishu and said, "Not only can I film, but I can also invent a new extreme sport that is popular all over the world." I am proud to have such young compatriots and peers!" As he spoke, Xu Ben also gave a thumbs up in the direction of Xiao Yao and the others.

There was a round of applause, and there were many cheers. Xiao Yao and the four of them all stood up and bowed in all directions of the audience.

"Okay!" When Xiao Yao and the four of them sat down, the applause at the scene stopped, and Xu Ben continued, "There are a few young people who are good at acting and behind the scenes, let's introduce a few young actors who are particularly outstanding in acting." There are five actors who won the best newcomer actor this year, they are Wen Li, where is Wen Li?"

The picture on the big screen at the scene cut to the young actor named Wen Li, and Xiao Yao and the others relaxed a little.

After introducing the guests, the next step is the award process.

Among the various film awards, Best Actor, Actress, Best Director and Best Picture are usually the four most important awards. The four most important awards are usually placed at the end of the finale. The awards of Best Supporting Actor, Best New Actor, and Best New Director are usually more concerned than technical awards due to the fame of the candidates, but it is impossible for the awards ceremony to gather all the awards with high attention, so these awards and technical awards are staggered in the order of awarding.

At the awards ceremony the year before, the first award was Best New Actor, and this year is no different. However, for this year's award, Xiao Yao's crew was not nominated, and it has nothing to do with them.

After the first award was handed out, there was no show in between, and then it was the second award tonight. The second award tonight was Best Action Design in the Technical category. Xiao Yao: Their movie was nominated for this award, and it has something to do with them, so naturally some people are nervous.

As soon as the names of the two award presenters for the best action design were read out by the host, before they came on stage, Xu Fei quietly pulled Zhao Rui's arm and asked in a nervous whisper: "The two of them presented the awards, are we out of play?"

Most of the award presenters are a combination of a man and a woman. Tonight's Golden Dragon Award for Best Action Design is not only a man and a woman, but also a person in front of the curtain and behind the scenes.

The male award presenter is named Zhou Nian'an, in his 40s, who was once a member of the international Hong Kong Island kung fu superstar Zhou Hu's royal martial arts team, Zhou Jiaban, and is now a senior martial arts instructor and action director in the industry, and has also made action movies as a director.

The female award presenter is called Tian Xinhui and is an actress. Tian Xinhui was originally a professional taekwondo athlete and won the championship in official competitions. After retiring, he transformed into an actor, and the roles he played were mainly playing, basically an action actor. She has transformed into an actor for nearly ten years, and she is currently one of the most famous "beating girls" in the Chinese film industry.

The two award presenters are known for filming "fighting scenes", while Xiao Yao's "Parkour Boy" is characterized by "running", and there are very few scenes of real fights, which is the least "fighting" element among the five shortlisted films. This is also the reason why Xu Fei was a little unconfident when he heard that these two were the award presenters.

"Calm!" Zhao Rui smiled, "Didn't you say that the nomination is a victory, and it doesn't matter if you win the award or not?"

"Just like that, how can it really matter!" Xu Fei said, "It's all here, who doesn't want to win the award?"

"I want to win the award, but it's not up to us to decide!" Zhao Rui comforted, "Besides, they are famous for filming scenes, but how many people are really famous for making action movies such as sports, basically aren't they all famous for playing dramas? Who do you think is appropriate to give us awards? Don't be so unconfident when you hear a name!"

On the stage, after the two award presenters greeted the audience, introduced themselves, and greeted each other, Tian Xinhui asked Zhou Nianan with a smile: "Director Zhou, I am now labeled as an action actor by the audience, and some people call me a beating girl, so I want to ask, is a female action actor a beating girl?"

"Of course not!" Zhou Nianan shook his head with a smile and said, "Action scenes include fighting scenes, but they are definitely not only fighting scenes. For example, running, chasing, and even jumping off buildings and cars, which can be classified as stunts, are all action scenes..."

"There's a play!" Xu Fei in the audience said happily.

"However," Zhou Nianan continued, "Of all the action scenes, I think the fight scenes are the most difficult to film. Because he not only requires beautiful and difficult movements, but also needs to cooperate with each other in the actors, so that he can shoot well. So I think you're called a beater, which actually means you're a very good action actor. ”

"Alas~" Xu Fei sighed with some disappointment.

"Expression management!" Zhao Rui reminded in a low voice.

"Hmm!" Xu Fei immediately straightened his face.

"Thank you, director!" Tian Xinhui on the stage smiled, "I feel very happy when you say that." ”

"Okay, since you're happy, then we won't waste time, let's present the award!" Zhou Nianan said with a smile.

"The shortlist for the Best Action Design Award at the 55th Golden Dragon Awards is, please look at the big screen!" Tian Xinhui finished reading the cover of the envelope in his hand, and turned around with Zhou Nianan to look at the big screen behind him.

The big screen at the scene played the characteristic action clips of the five shortlisted films in turn, and the names of the action designers/directors were marked below, and there were bursts of applause at the scene.

After the clips of the five shortlisted films were played, Zhou Nianan took the envelope from Tian Xinhui's hand and opened it, and read it seriously: "The winner of the Best Action Design Award at the 55th Golden Dragon Awards is..."

Reading this, Zhou Nian'an stopped, handed the envelope to Tian Xinhui, and motioned for her to read it.

Tian Xinhui took the envelope and glanced at it, then continued with a smile: "Although there are not many fight scenes in this movie, I know that at least one person in this movie is very, very capable of fighting! The winners are "Parkour Boy", Xiao Yao, Zhao Rui, Xu Fei, and Kevin Scott!"

When Tian Xinhui said that there were not many fight scenes, Xu Fei clenched his fists excitedly, and when Tian Xinhui read out the name of the movie, there was a round of applause from the audience, and Xu Fei also happily patted Zhao Rui's shoulder next to him and hugged him.

"Congratulations to the four!Please come on stage to receive the award!" said the host Tong Yishu, who was standing on the side of the stage.
