Chapter 0341 - Oscars
The results can't be changed, but at least in other areas, we can do the best.
In fact, it's like foreigners will commit face blindness to us yellow people, and when we sit in the encirclement of Europeans and Americans, I am basically a little confused.
In the past few days, I have also followed Lan Zhiyuan to meet some Hollywood movie stars, including many celebrities who are household names in our country, but this has not improved my eyesight at all.
Fortunately, there are still two great gods Lan Zhiyuan and Twilight by his side.
"How are you feeling now?" When there were still ten minutes before the start of the awards party, Lan Zhiyuan suddenly turned sideways and asked.
I chuckled softly, "It's all about participation, and I'm lucky to be able to sit here and watch a live version of the Oscars." "This is also the mentality that I have gradually adjusted in the past few days. I don't understand how Lan Zhiyuan and Twilight view this matter now, but I also seem to start to feel that not getting such an award is not necessarily a bad thing.
"If you have that mentality, you've already succeeded for the most part. Lan Zhiyuan also smiled gently with me.
In the past few days, he has not actually been involved in any activities with the Hollywood organizing committee as he said, and basically he has not mentioned the Oscars to me again.
As I was pondering, Twilight's hand suddenly came over and gently took mine. I glanced sideways at him, he was smiling, looking at me gently, and then looking past me and looking at Lan Zhiyuan.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled tacitly, which made my heart tighten again.
"Don't worry, it will be the best outcome. This is Twilight whispering softly in my ear.
I nodded obediently, and my whole heart was basically hopeless.
It's still impossible to say that you don't care, and when you try to let go, you actually have a luxury hidden in your heart. But in the face of such two people, my hope was really completely extinguished.
So, from the very beginning of the awards gala, I automatically included myself in the queue of spectators.
However, the awards for Best Actor and Actress are all placed at the end, and they are announced as the finale, so I need to enjoy my first live version of the Oscars with such a complicated and calm mood.
Of the three awards we were nominated for, the Best Photography award ended up in the hands of the Americans, and we didn't get it.
And Lan Zhiyuan really won the Best Director Award, which is also an expected award. Of course, this is not only the honor of "The Legend of Ruyi", but also equivalent to a lifetime achievement award, which is the highest affirmation of Lan Zhiyuan's lifelong commitment to the film industry.
Lan Zhiyuan, who stood on the stage, received more warm applause and more enthusiastic cheers, which was inseparable from his years of hard work and experience in the United States. In a sense, he has been accepted by the European and American film and television circles, and he has also been endowed with more international connotations and expectations, rather than just being associated with China.
And this also makes him more acceptable to this circle in the West.
As for me, what is missing is actually the latter.
When he stepped off the stage with the trophy in his arms and slowly sat back down beside me, my mood rose and fell again. Unconsciously looked at the trophy, which symbolized the unique honor of the Oscars, and was bullied with anxiety.
Fortunately, the awards nominated by the other two crews were finally bagged, which can be regarded as making a certain contribution to our country's film industry together with us.
The prizes were announced one by one, and finally, it was time for the most exciting moment.
All the calmness and calmness before are completely gone, and the mood at this moment is more excited and apprehensive than any previous participation in the award ceremony.
My hands clenched together, and Twilight raised her hand to hold my hand, the warmth reassuring me a little, but it didn't soothe my tension enough.
Huang Ziyi was sitting in front of me diagonally, from the beginning of the award ceremony until now, I had allowed myself to ignore her presence, but at this time, my attention was no longer uncontrollably trying to reach her.
Compared to my inexplicable anxiety, she seemed to have the chance to win, especially when the award presenter was about to reveal the mystery, she was obviously ready to get up, looking at the guests on the stage with an elegant posture, and the people on both sides had already begun to send her blessings.
There were already close-ups of our four candidates on the big screen, and I could only control my expression a little and keep smiling slightly.
Perhaps in order to take care of the existence of many Chinese people on the scene, one of the two award presenters is Chinese, and Tang Wan, a senior who has switched to Hollywood in recent years. Of course, it may also be to take care of me, so that I can hear more clearly, so that I don't get out of trouble.
Sadly, I still got out of trouble.
Because the two guests announced the results in English and Chinese respectively, and I heard my name a little like a dream, or the clear three words 'Lin Chuxia', I actually sat in my position dumbfounded, and my brain went blank for more than ten seconds.
"In early summer, what are you doing in a daze?" Lan Zhiyuan touched me on the side, and then motioned for me to go up to receive the award.
"Is it really me?" I raised my hand and pointed at myself, looking at Lan Zhiyuan, and then at Twilight, it was like a dream.
"Go, little fool. Twilight petted my head dotingly and motioned for me to hurry up to the stage to accept the award.
Fortunately, the two people on the stage are also good at adjusting the atmosphere, especially Tang Wan, who directly teased me in Chinese whether I was too happy, I forgot this step of going on stage to receive the award, and at the same time did not forget to ridicule the twilight next to me, and the action he just touched his head was indeed seen by everyone.
I basically don't have any impression of how I got on stage. When the heavy trophy fell into my hands, the thick weight also gave me a real feeling.
Tang Wan and another guest also sent a blessing hug, and Tang Wan also whispered in my ear, "In early summer, you are the pride of our Chinese, congratulations." ”
I smiled back at her with gratitude, and the brain circuits seemed to be starting to work properly.
When I faced the audience, most of which were still the best in the same industry, especially the stars from Europe and the United States, I still felt a little dizzy, standing in front of the microphone, and I was still a little overwhelmed.
It was an unprecedented tension that I had never experienced before, almost out of my control.
But there is another business in my mind telling me that this girl standing here now does not only represent Lin Chuxia personally, I am the heroine of "The Legend of Ruyi", and I am also the first actress from China to win this award, I can't show my timidity, I can't let these foreigners see jokes.
Eventually, my eyes settled on the goal that reassured me – twilight.
He always maintained the most elegant and warm smile, his eyes fixed on me, and when our eyes met, it seemed that there was warmth and energy in those eyes.
I reciprocated with the same warm smile, and then slowly spoke, "To be able to stand on this stage, I know that I am lucky and happy. "My heart gradually calmed down, and my thoughts gradually became clearer.
"This is not only an affirmation of me personally, but also an affirmation of our entire crew, which may be a bit cliché, but I still want to thank the organizing committee, the staff of our entire crew, and finally, my husband. ”
When I said this, the audience erupted in warm applause again, it turned out that it could be a stronger reaction than to Lan Zhiyuan.
"I also believe that we will definitely shoot more excellent domestic films, and there will be more outstanding Chinese actors standing on this stage. These words caused a sigh in a certain area of the audience, but the vast majority of foreigners are also very self-contained, and there are too many overseas Chinese at the scene, and they also expressed their approval and support with warm applause.
On the way back, with a heavy trophy in hand, I suddenly became full of happiness. The steps under my feet are much more steady, but the incredible feeling is still lingering in my heart.
When she passed by Alexia's side, she smiled politely at me, we didn't have any contact before, and this time we were direct competitors, she was at least able to maintain such a demeanor at this time, which made me impressed.
And when I walked to Huang Ziyi's row, there was no disguised hostility in her eyes, and she occasionally looked at the trophy in my hand, which made her feel a little more angry and jealous. Perhaps, she is still confident that she will win, so she is naturally full of incomprehension and more jealousy that I can win this trophy.
After that unpleasant contact with the dress shop, I basically didn't have much hope for her person, so I didn't have the heart to pay attention to her, and I quickened my pace and walked to my place. I just have to sigh with emotion, this kind of behavior is really a shame for us Chinese abroad.
Lan Zhiyuan and Twilight's eyes were full of blessings and joy, but obviously there was no such incredulity as mine, but a kind of natural calm.
Fortunately, with the announcement of the Best Actor award, there will be a closing ceremony at the end, and even if this awards party ends successfully, I finally have the opportunity to ask these two people for advice.
Like other awards parties, after the official party, there will be an off-site interview dedicated to the winners, and after Lan Zhiyuan was interviewed, he went straight back to his home in Los Angeles and handed me over to Twilight.
Seeing him like that, he probably knew that I would break the casserole and ask to the end, so he simply handed over this important task to Twilight to solve it.
The interview is expected to take only 10 minutes, which is also a rule on the part of the organizers.
However, because I was the first Chinese actress to win this award, journalists from all over the world were very concerned about such a major surprise, and the interview scene was simply endless questions, and the Chinese reporters were even more excited.
In this way, the interview, which was originally scheduled to be completed in ten minutes, lasted for nearly half an hour, and finally the organizer intervened, which made the interview hastily concluded.
Considering my safety concern, on the way back, Dusk had already arranged six bodyguards to take two cars in two cars and drive the road in front of and behind our car, so as to avoid being chased and intercepted by reporters from all walks of life.
As soon as I got in the car, I couldn't help but ask him for advice.
