In a coffee shop on the street of San Francisco, Liu Shishi was sitting in an open-air café on the street, turned on his laptop, and tuned to the barrage network to watch TVB's live broadcast. [No pop-up novel network]

Her clear face without any makeup looked very haggard, with two faint dark circles under her eyes, but her eyes were extremely firm.

Gu Xiaofan will be detained in San Francisco for three months, so she decided to stay in San Francisco for three months, find the best lawyer, collect all the relevant evidence, and at the same time she has to hurry up and practice her spoken English.

The last time she met Gu Xiaofan, he told her on the other side of the railing:

"Sister Shi, you must practice your English well, you must be prepared, we will come back to make movies here in the near future."

Whether Gu Xiaofan was comforting her, or seriously, Liu Shishi listened to this, she wanted to seize this precious time, stay in San Francisco to improve herself, and when Gu Xiaofan came back, she would fight back here with him with her head held high.

At this time, the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony was playing on the computer screen, and after the introduction of the video at the beginning, the three hosts Wu Junru, Zheng Yuling, and Zheng Xiuwen appeared on the stage of the cultural center.

The spacious hall was full, and in the thunderous applause of everyone, Zheng Yuling, who was in a pink dress, and her partner Wu Junru began a teasing opening remarks while saying "thank you".

After making the audience laugh, Wu Junru pointed to the guests in the first row and smiled:

"Someone told me that this year's shortlisted guests are all handsome guys, what Zhou Runfa, Liu Dehua, Li Lianjie, Gu Tianle, Chen Kexin sitting in the first row, are you sitting in the wrong position?"

Seeing Wu Junru teasing her husband, when the scene was full of laughter, Zheng Yuling clasped her palms together and teased a few Hong Kong stars before spreading her hands and saying:

"There are a lot of familiar faces in tonight's guests, the conference praised your talent, you have received the love of people all over China and even all over Asia, I can't help but think of a question, what is a real star?"

The venue sounded with leisurely and soft music, and Zheng Yuling looked at all the guests below and said:

"Celebrities are all attractive people, some are tall, some are very short, some are handsome, and some are very round."

The camera was focused on Zeng Zhiwei at this time, and the laughter of many guests in the audience suddenly destroyed the elegant and vulgar atmosphere created before, but Zheng Yuling maintained a serious face and said:

"There are artists of the older generation who deserve our respect, and there are lovely middle-aged women."

Shen Dianxia, who died 2 months ago, was shown on the big screen, which made everyone laugh and feel a little sad.

"But how exactly do you define a celebrity?" Zheng Yuling said softly: "I think the title of star belongs to those who can really inspire people." ”

The passionate music sounded, and on the big screen at the scene, the picture of Gu Xiaofan standing on the live broadcast car singing and singing was played, and the live broadcast car was surrounded by a five-star red flag like an ocean.

The scene couldn't help but think of the warmest applause, and the other shot was aimed at the direction of the crew of "Dear", aimed at the empty seat next to Liang Jiahui and Gao Yuanyuan......

The shout of "Gu Xiaofan" sounded on the screen, and when he heard this word, Liu Shishi, who was watching the live broadcast screen, was in a fluctuating mood, yes, at this time, he should be wearing a straight suit, where to sit and accept the host's jokes, not prison clothes......

Liu Shishi leaned back on the seat, holding the spoon in her fingers and gently stirring the coffee in the cup, muttering, "Gu Xiaoshu......"

Los Angeles City Prison, in the collective cell, Gu Xiaofan was standing by the bed, one leg on the head of the bed, sweat dripping down from his forehead, while pressing his legs and silently chanting: "167, 168, 169......"

Gao Xiaosong, who was lying on the bed next to him, tilted his head sideways and looked at him, feeling very puzzled by Gu Xiaofan's move.

Since Gu Xiaofan came to the cell, he has been doing repetitive and boring things every day, constantly talking with various people of different races in the cell for 2 hours, observing the details of their lives.

5 hours of "drum kit" with Jones, 7 hours of leg press and stretch, and some ballet basics.

This little director is as energetic as a calf.

But Gao Xiaosong really couldn't figure out why Gu Xiaofan, a big man, practiced ballet such a sissy dance......

"I said, Teacher Gu......" Gao Xiaosong was also a little bored, leaned sideways to support his head, and asked Gu Xiaofan:

"Today is the Hong Kong Film Awards, your "Darling" has been shortlisted for five awards, what if you win the Best Film, Best Actor, Best Screenplay Award?"

Winning? Gu Xiaofan put down his legs and stopped, wiped his sweat and thought for a while:

"I don't think I have much chance except for Best Screenplay, and I only have a little chance of Best Screenplay."

The result has nothing to do with whether he is now in custody or not, although the judging will take into account off-site factors, but the judging of the Academy Awards has already ended long before the San Francisco torch incident......

And this time the best films shortlisted are the big hits "Casting a Name" and "Disciple", "Dear" is a mainland anti-abduction theme, it is difficult to arouse the preference of Hong Kong filmmakers.

In terms of Best Actor, whether it is Lau Dehua, Aaron Kwok, or Li Lianjie, Liu Qingyun, they are all superstars who have been famous for a long time, and there is no reason to award them to the only newcomer among the finalists.

In terms of best screenplay, "Vote for Fame" and "Disciple" are not the strongest opponents, and the media and film critics believe that his "Dear" is evenly matched with Wei Jiahui's "Detective", and there may be real hope.

So although there was not much hope, he had routinely prepared a leader's acceptance speech for He Tiejun on the phone, but he probably didn't need it......

"I think you have a good chance." Gao Xiaosong patted him on the shoulder with great confidence:

"If you want me to say, the script of "Dear" is completely like a rewrite of the real script, there are too many details in it, although Wei Jiahui's "Detective" is also excellent, but he plays metaphysics, and it can't be compared with you, Mr. Gu, you have a great chance of winning."

At the Hong Kong Cultural Center, the award ceremony was already halfway through, and many technical and post-production awards were presented to Shen Dianxia for professionalism, Donnie Yen for best action design, "Fuse", best Asian film "Lust and Caution", best original film music for Hisaishi Jean "Auntie's Postmodern Life", and best art director Xi Zhongwen "Cast a Name" and many other technical and post-production awards.

gradually came to the highlight part, first of all, the best cinematography was won by the great photographer Huang Yuetai ("Casting the Name"), and the best supporting actress was won by Shao Yinyin's "Wild Dog".
