Chapter Fifty-Eight: Dude, Why Do You Keep Your Ghost Away?

At the closing ceremony of the award ceremony, the host had no routine, with full sincerity, and briefly said the speech of the award ceremony, and then the jury appeared. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info counting the chairman, six judges, 5 are directors, there is only one actor, and the only actor is Italian, and only the chairman is Chinese, Bai Xuejia has seen several of his movies, and he is not familiar with anyone else.

Tsukasa Nishino whispered to Bai Xuejia about those people, and it can be said that they are all influential filmmakers in their respective localities.

Bai Xuejia participated in the film festival for the first time, and it was also the first time to know that the film festival not only had awards such as Best Film, Best Actor, and Actress, but also a lot of strange awards.

For example, what is the "Audience Award" and "Audience Choice Award", Bai Xuejia was confused, don't the meanings of these two awards be different?

The "Audience Choice Award" was awarded to "The Abyss", and when the director came on stage, his smile was as if he was constipated and burst at the same time.

"Why aren't you happy to win the award?" asked Shirakusha curiously.

Tsukasa Nishino explained to Shira, "Although there is no rule that a film can only win one award, there has never been a film that has won both the Audience Choice Award and the Golden Sakura Award. ”

The Golden Sakura Award is the highest award at the Tokyo International Film Festival, to put it simply, the Audience Choice Award is equivalent to a consolation prize, the judges don't look down on it, but the audience likes it, so there is such a consolation prize, have you ever seen any awards that anyone has won both the consolation prize and the first prize?

So when he heard "The Abyss", it meant that he basically said goodbye to the Golden Cherry Blossom Award. That's why the director turned pale, didn't say much thanks, went on stage and won the award, and hurriedly stepped off the stage with a few polite words.

The Audience Choice Award was literal, but he finally knew what this award was for, and then Bai Xuejia heard about the "Special Award of the International Exchange Fund Asia Center", "Samurai Award", "Appreciation Award" and other awards that made him even more confused.

Of course, these are just appetizers at the beginning, and the focus is on the real heavyweights later.

Tatsumi won the Best Cinematography Award for "5 Centimeters per Second", and when he heard it, he was stunned for a moment, and in the urging of everyone, he hurriedly came to the stage, and his thank-you speeches were incoherent - because he was not prepared at all. Until he came down from the stage, he still smiled like a dream, touching the trophy, just like stroking his wife.

"The next thing to be awarded is the Tokyo International Film Festival, Best Supporting Actress ......" After the award presenters came to the stage, they talked to the host as if they were talking about cross talk, and they were verbose and deliberately hung people's appetites. Aragaki Ayase straightened her neck, she didn't know that she unconsciously grabbed Bai Xuejia's hand, and sweat oozed nervously from her palms.

“…… Let's see, the winner is ...... "5 Centimeters per Second", Miss Ayase Aragaki ...... Let's congratulate her!"

Aragaki Ayase seemed to have dropped the line suddenly, and when she heard the final result, she didn't react at all.

It wasn't until Bai Xuejia poked her a few times that she came back to her senses.

"Ayase, congratulations! You've won the award! Go on stage to receive the award!"

"Oh, oh!"

Ayase grabbed the hem of her skirt with both hands, lifted it slightly, and walked quickly to the stage, and when she was about to reach the stage, she took a few steps and took a few deep breaths before walking onto the podium with a stiff smile.

Bai Xue Jia looked at Aragaki Ayase, always worried that she would suddenly fall on the ground on this occasion...... Although he thought it would be funny.

Ayase Aragaki stood steadily in front of the microphone, took the trophy from the award presenters, and turned her head to look at the audience. All she saw was that it was pitch black under the stage, and the heads that couldn't see their faces were shaking, and she swallowed her saliva, and her head went blank.

It's like a dream, and that's the award?

5 Centimeters per Second In order to receive this role, she practiced surfing hard, and the whole person was tanned; during filming, in order to play this role well, every day after going back, she memorized the lines, studied the script, and experienced this role; she was crushed by Bai Xuejia's sudden outburst of acting skills, she was jealous, even more afraid, she was afraid of losing this role; the accident on the set, she thought she was going to die, and was saved by Bai Xuejia; for the first time she communicated with Bai Xuejia outside of filming, she found another Bai Xuejia, different from the domineering during filmingWith the help of Bai Xuejia, she has re-repaired her defeated mentality, and is stronger and brighter than before......

She looked in one direction of the audience, which was the direction of the crew of "5 Centimeters per Second", she couldn't see Bai Xuejia's face, but she could feel that Bai Xuejia was looking at her.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you Tokyo Film Festival...... At the same time, I would like to thank my parents for their understanding and support, I would also like to thank Director Makoto Shinkai, it is his appreciation that I guessed such a hard-won opportunity, and I would like to thank Mr. Bai Xuejia, who allowed me to stand on this stage......"

Ayase Aragaki thought it was a dream the whole time, until she got off the stage, accepted the blessings of her fellow crew members, and held the trophy for Best Supporting Actress in her hand, and her excitement erupted from the bottom of her heart like a tide.

"Mr. Bai Xuejia, I, I have won the award!"

Aragaki Ayase hugged Bai Xue Jia hard and whispered excitedly, and then reluctantly left Bai Xue Jia's embrace, his face ruddy and bright.

"Congratulations. ”

Bai Xuejia congratulated with a smile, and Aragaki Ayaseko's performance in "5 Centimeters per Second" was well deserved.

However, then "5 Centimeters per Second" was reduced to the background picture, and in "5 Centimeters per Second", Bai Xuejia and Tsukasa Nishino were also nominated for Best Actor and Best Actress with Guishu and Akari respectively, which is the so-called actor and actress.

Tsukasa Nishino's "The Abyss" was also nominated for Best Actress, and both works were nominated at the same time, but they were still unsuccessful, and the actress was an Italian actress in her forties. Bai Xuejia watched her film during the screening, and he really had nothing to say.

In the competition for Best Actor, Bai Xuejia lost to Rune, who played the male protagonist Arslan in "The Battle of Arslan: The Tragedy of the Sunset", which is worth mentioning, although Rune has also starred in some popular idol TV series. But he, like Bai Xuejia, is the first movie, and it is also his first time to show his acting skills.

Although Yue Qingfeng was also nominated for the leading actor, he was reduced to the background like Bai Xuejia.

Participating in the Tokyo International Film Festival for the first time, Bai Xuejia has also seen so many wonderful movies from all over the world and actors with different performance styles.

Although Bai Xuejia has no expectations, it does not mean that he is willing to fall and does not want to win awards at all...... On the contrary, after seeing the performance of the group of amazing and colorful actors, a flame rose in Bai Xuejia's eyes as he looked at them. If it turned out that Bai Xuejia's heart was just a small flame, then they were gasoline to Bai Xuejia, which made the flame in Bai Xuejia's heart burn more violently.

"You're no worse than them...... The worst thing is my movie. Makoto Shinkai comforted Bai Xue Jia, and Guishu opened a door for Bai Xue Jia, but if he wanted to completely release Bai Xue Jia's potential, it was far from enough.

The final Golden Cherry Blossom Award was awarded to "The Battle of Arslan: Sunset Tragedy".

The Tokyo International Film Festival came to a successful conclusion, and as soon as they left the theater, the reporters who had been waiting outside for a long time rushed over like idiots who saw a naked woman holding a black stubby. "5 Centimeters per Second" only won one off-the-radar cinematography award and one Best Supporting Actress award, and only Ayase Aragaki received enthusiastic attention.

After sending off the reporters, Makoto Shinkai beckoned everyone to go to the old place to celebrate. Although the two awards he won have nothing to do with him, in general, these two will also be the joint efforts of the whole crew, and the film festival has also sold the rights to South Korea and Southeast Asia, Makoto Shinkai is happy.

In addition, to attend the award ceremony, everyone didn't eat much, only a little cushion their stomachs, and after a few hours, they were already hungry with their chests against their backs. So they returned to change their troublesome dresses into everyday casual clothes and went to the "xxxholic izakaya".

It's a pity that the proprietress was not there and couldn't see the proprietress .

"xxxholic" is divided into several thematic areas according to different styles. It was impossible for the crew to come to the film festival, there were only a few main creators, and there were not many people, so I went to the cubicle in the hall.

The hall has an elegant environment, and the cubicles are like pearl curtains dotted with stars, so if you don't look inside, you can't see who is sitting inside.

There is a piano in the center of the hall, and the listeners can enjoy beautiful and soothing piano music, chatting and eating.

"Hey, Xiao Si, what a coincidence, you also came here to eat!"

The pearl curtain was suddenly lifted, and a Yue Qingfeng's head came out.

Bai Xuejia stared at Yue Qingfeng speechlessly: Dude, why don't you keep your ghost going?
