90. Chapter 90
The much-anticipated Huaxia Golden Crow Award Ceremony is scheduled for April 20 at the Huajing Grand Theatre.
Although due to some historical reasons, the domestic entertainment industry is not as respected and supported by the imperial court as the foreign entertainment industry. But for ordinary people, the annual Golden Crow Awards is still the most influential and commercially valuable entertainment event in the country and even in Southeast Asia. Even in a certain way, the impact of the Golden Crow Award on the world is no less than that of the other four major film festivals.
After all, Huaxia's status and influence as a great power are in the past, even if the current dynasty does not attach importance to the development and growth of its own entertainment industry, but Huaxia has a history of 5,000 years, is the only country in the world without cultural faults, and is also the most prestigious ancient oriental country in the world. Her mystery and power have always attracted the attention of the world.
The various works exported by the Chinese entertainment industry and the award ceremony of the Golden Crow Award are a way for the world to understand Huaxia.
The time has just passed two o'clock in the afternoon, and the front of the Huajing Grand Theater, located in the downtown business district of Huajing, is already bustling. Thousands of movie fans and journalists from all over the world, as well as staff from the Golden Crow Awards, gathered here, and the shopping street next to the entrance to the Huajing Grand Theatre was completely blocked off early in the morning, and no vehicles were allowed to pass through the city. A red carpet with auspicious clouds leading from the entrance of the Huajing Grand Theater to the end of the street.
The security guards in charge of guarding the awards ceremony stood on either side of the red carpet in black suits and black headsets, and they were surrounded by a bustling crowd of movie fans. The screams and the sound of mobile phone photos are heard one after another, and even the aerial camera plane responsible for broadcasting this movie event can hear the screams of female fans, so you can imagine how lively the atmosphere here is.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Mo, who was wearing a black dress, arrived at the entrance of the red carpet in a long luxury car.
The moment he opened the door and got out of the car, the screams from both sides of the red carpet almost shook the sky. Chen Mo smiled and waved to the fans on both sides of the red carpet, the black suit set off his eyebrows and eyes more and more exquisitely, and even Chen Mo's unique flying wanton was revealed a kind of noble restraint under the background of this dress. The fans on both sides of the red carpet, who have a calm temperament that is completely different from usual, screamed and called "domineering president" repeatedly.
Chen Mo, who was aware of the fan commotion, raised his eyebrows more and more proudly. All the fans who were squinting at that moment screamed again.
And the reporters on the red carpet and on both sides of the red carpet pressed the shutter desperately, the flash flashed frequently, just when all the reporters were noisily asking Chen Mo questions, Chen Mo stood sideways next to the car door, put one hand behind his back, and made a "please" gesture with a smile.
In the next second, the first thing everyone saw was a pair of black shiny Oxford leather shoes, followed by a pair of long legs wrapped in black trousers. The shapely legs look straight and slender against the black trousers. It's a perfect interpretation of what it means to say "legs below the navel".
What is even more striking than this pair of long legs is the man's broad arms and narrow waist, wrapped in a tailor-made suit dress, like an adult black cheetah, exuding an incomparably elegant and lazy carnivore atmosphere.
It wasn't until this handsome-looking man with an unfamiliar face stood next to Chen Mo that everyone was stunned to realize that the dresses they were wearing were the same fabric style, and even the dark lines of the clothes that were faintly revealed in the sunlight were so compatible.
Mu Yu, who was standing still on the red carpet, faced the frequently flashing flashing lights, and looked at Chen Mo who had already stood with his arms bent helplessly.
Noticing Mu Yu's helplessness, the smile on Chen Mo's face became more and more arbitrary. The smile that blinded everyone's eyes. And when Mu Yu calmly reached out to hold Chen Mo's arm, the screams on both sides of the red carpet became more and more shocking.
It even attracted the attention of artists on the red carpet.
Despite the "screams" of fans, the reporters who first rushed to Chen Mo asked the identity of the strange-looking but very familiar man next to Chen Mo while taking pictures frantically.
Chen Mowan smiled and introduced: "This is my red carpet male companion and my fiancΓ© Mu Yu." β
When the words fell, the reporters present were immediately stunned. After learning that the man who accompanied Chen Mo on the red carpet in front of him was the CEO of M Moser Group and the first heir, the enthusiasm of the media present to take pictures became more and more high.
Immediately some people thought of the most popular dog abuse video showing affection on the Internet a while ago, although everyone learned that Chen Mo and Mu Yu were in love, but they still couldn't imagine that the children of the family who had always been noble and mysterious would actually appear on the red carpet of the Golden Crow Awards ceremony for their partners, and the media reporters present almost didn't even have time for ecstasy, and they grabbed the best interview position, and asked about the relationship between the two in an old-fashioned manner, the situation of meeting their parents and whether they had any intention of getting married, etc.
Before Chen Mo could speak this time, Mu Yu, who was standing next to him, had already said, "We have already met the parents of both sides and are officially engaged." The engagement reception is scheduled for June 6th. Although we cannot invite the media to attend, we hope to receive your blessings. β
As soon as Mu Yu's words fell, not only the media reporters, but also the fans and artists in the audience were also crazy.
Chen Mo glanced at Mu Yu, who was secretly sullen, a little helplessly, and took photos with the requests of media reporters and fans, feeling that the time was almost up, and slowly walked to the signature board.
The red carpet host in charge of the Golden Crow Awards ceremony also congratulated Chen Mo with a smile, and did not forget to play with envy and hatred: "...... A bumper harvest in career and love, and I can be admitted to my favorite university, compared to Chen Mo's three joys, when will I get married! β
One sentence amused everyone, and after laughing, the host interviewed with a spring breeze on his face: "...... I was nominated for the Best Newcomer Award this time, do you think you can win it? β
Chen Mo said with a smile: "I'm already very happy to be nominated for the Best Newcomer Award, but I really haven't considered whether I can win the award." β
Chen Mo told the truth, he has been busy filming recently, preparing for various matters of engagement, and busy completing the class assignments and group assignments left by the teachers of various subjects in the Faculty of Arts, and even the previously agreed "Nine Days" crew also sent the final script for Chen Mo to figure out, and all kinds of things piled up together, making Chen Mo almost anxious. I really don't have the energy to worry about the Best Newcomer Award.
What's more, in Chen Mo's view, being able to be nominated for the Best Newcomer Award has proved his potential and strength, as for whether he can win the award, in addition to the artist's appearance in the movie, it also depends on the public relations power of the agency and the agent.
After saying goodbye to the red carpet host, Chen Mo and Mu Yu entered the hall of the Huajing Grand Theater. The artists and industry bigwigs who learned of the commotion on the red carpet immediately took a look. Chen Yuxiu, Li Zhaoxi, Lu Xiaonong and others, who had dealt with Chen Mo, came over to greet Chen Mo one after another.
Chen Mo knew that at this year's Golden Crow Awards ceremony, Chen Yuxiu was nominated for Best Actor with a "Above the Sky", and although Li Zhaoxi did not receive any nominations, he was the guest of honor to announce this year's Best Actor Award as the winner of the previous Best Actor. As for Lu Xiaonong, she was nominated for Best Actress with a "Wind and Moon in the Border City".
In addition, Yuan Haobin, who belongs to the same agency as Chen Mo and has a good personal relationship, was also nominated for Best Original Song.
Everyone congratulated each other, and before they had time to say a few more words, many boss-level figures who were very unfamiliar to outsiders but held the power of life and death for people in the industry came up one after another.
Chen Mo knew that the target of the other party should be Mu Yu, the heir of the Mu Group. The results were certainly not surprising.
It's a pity that the urgency of the award ceremony and the etiquette of the first meeting did not allow everyone to talk about it to go deep into the ideal process, and there was already a master of ceremonies for the Golden Crow Award to lead everyone to the designated location.
As the leading actor of "Time Diary", Chen Mo was naturally placed in the crew of "Time Diary". Sitting next to him is Zhao Yanyan, the heroine of "Time Diary".
Zhao Yanyan, who has always had a good impression of Chen Mo, of course, also saw the commotion on the red carpet, she glanced at Chen Mo with complicated eyes, a trace of imperceptible loss flashed on her face, and she smiled and said: "Congratulations on being nominated for the Best Newcomer Award...... And happy engagement. β
Chen Mo thanked him and introduced Mu Yu to Zhao Yanyan, who nodded at Mu Yu with a decent smile.
At the beginning of the award ceremony, everyone's eyes naturally fell on the stage.
The host responsible for presiding over this year's Golden Crow Award ceremony is Wei Xiaoman, the gold medal host who has won the Golden Microphone Award for three consecutive years. After a burst of slogans and laughter, Wei Xiaoman made an extremely natural transition to the first award to be announced today - the Best Original Music Award.
The guest of honor is a well-known music producer in the circle, the 66-year-old man has no doubt about his musical talent, and has composed dozens of popular classic golden songs. Even to this day, it has been repeatedly covered, and can be called a treasure-level master in the Chinese music industry.
However, compared to the master's talent in music, his vocabulary in language is very weak. After dryly announcing the five nominees for the Best Original Music award, the old man motioned for everyone to watch the big screen.
Because the nominee for this award has his friend Yuan Haobin, Chen Mo was nervous for Yuan Haobin when he announced the award. When the results were finally announced, Yuan Haobin, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, directly sang the ending song of the same name of his film "Above the Sky", which was shortlisted for the Golden Crow Award for Best Original Music, on stage.
Mellow and affectionate singing with a hint of blues drifted in the sky above the Huajing Grand Theater, and after a song, Yuan Haobin delivered his acceptance speech on stage.
The award that followed the Best Original Music award was the Best Newcomer Award. When the award presenters on the stage slowly read out the names of the five nominees and the nominated films, Chen Mo felt that all the cameras in the studio hall swept over, and Chen Mo also appeared on the big screen.
I saw Chen Mo, who was wearing a black dress, smiling comfortably, and he didn't have to worry about the best music award just now.
The award presenter on the stage opened the envelope with a smile on his face and read the name on the letter: "The winner of the Best Newcomer Award is ...... Chen Mo. β
When the results of the awards were announced, Chen Mo showed a smile of surprise just right, hugged Mu Yu beside him, and hugged the directors and actors in the crew one by one, and the surrounding actors and directors also stepped forward to congratulate Chen Mo.
Holding the golden crow trophy in both hands, Chen Mo stood on the stage and said, "First of all, I want to thank the organizing committee for awarding this award to me. Secondly, I would like to thank all the members of the crew of "Time Diary", as well as my agency...... Finally, I would like to thank my family, thank you for your company and love, I will try to be the best son I can be...... I love you. β
Chen's father and Chen's mother, who were watching the live broadcast in front of the TV, suddenly burst into tears.
Holding the trophy of the Golden Crow Award back to his seat, Chen Mo stuffed the trophy into Mu Yu's hand as if offering a treasure, and said with a smile: "The first award I won, is it okay to give it to you?" β
Feeling the texture of the trophy in his hand, Mu Yu nodded with a smile and said softly, "Okay." β
Chen Mo bent his eyebrows, and said, "Then all the awards I will get in the future will be given to you, okay?" β
Mu Yu lightly hooked the corners of his lips and replied, "Okay." β
Chen Mo smiled, picked up the trophy again, and said, "I don't know if this trophy is pure gold." If so, it would be fine, and when we ran out of money, we would sell it. β
Mu Yu was dumbfounded, so he had to say, "There won't be no money." I'll raise you. β
The actors and directors sitting around noticed the slimy appearance of the two and couldn't help but shiver.
Liang Shiyi, who played the second female lead in "Time Diary", couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, and muttered vigorously, "It's too sadistic, it's too abusive." β
In addition to Chen Mo's nomination and the Best Newcomer Award, the crew of "Time Diary" was also nominated for two awards: Best Cinematography and Best Costume Design. In the end, when the awards were announced, "Time Diary" won the best costume design, and the award for best cinematography went to another film about the Western style documentary.
Overall, "Time Diary" can be regarded as a small success.
The highlight of the awards ceremony, the Best Actress, was awarded to Lu Xiaonong without suspense, and Chen Yuxiu missed the Best Actor, and the next awards have nothing to do with Chen Mo. Chen Mo no longer pays attention. took advantage of the fact that the camera didn't sweep over, and kept chatting with Mu Yu from ear to ear.
The awards ceremony was followed by an in-house celebratory reception. For many people, the end of the award ceremony means that this year's Golden Crow Awards has come to a successful conclusion.
But for the artists and workers in the circle, the celebration reception after the awards ceremony is the highlight.
People can use cocktail parties to make connections, find opportunities, and even make deals that are conventional, but never put on the table.
However, most of these things have nothing to do with Chen Mo - he is too busy with the things at hand, where is the time and energy to expand other things. Besides, with Chen Mo's resources, there is no shortage of good scripts, so he really can't afford to stay here and be false and wronged with those who don't know him.
Therefore, Chen Mo originally wanted to leave directly after the award ceremony, but this idea was stopped by Yang Qindong.
"Why, the interest in winning the Best Newcomer Award is not high?" Yang Qindong asked with a smile.
Chen Mo smiled: "That's not it, it's the first time you get the award in your hand, how can you be unhappy." Besides, to get this award, you and the company have no less public relations, this is the result of our joint efforts, and it is a token I gave to our family Muyu, such a commemorative thing, how can you be unhappy. β
"It's worthy of being a top student who has been admitted to the Faculty of Letters, and his speech is really getting more and more beautiful, huh?" Yang Qindong was stunned and said, "But you are wrong. This Best Newcomer Award, even if there is no company to give you PR, it must be in your pocket. β
Chen Mo glanced at Yang Qindong with some surprise and raised his eyebrows, not quite believing that the Golden Crow Award Organizing Committee was really not affected by any outside world.
"Because you're a student at the Faculty of Arts at Huajing University." Yang Qindong didn't sell it either, and said bluntly.
"You are a student at the Faculty of Arts of Huajing University, and you are also an actor. You can also experience the difference between the two in terms of status. People who mix in the entertainment industry, no matter how famous they are, but in the eyes of those children of the family, we are just the bottom of the food chain. β
It is like a famous horn in the wild history of the past dynasties, and it is beautiful and beautiful in the eyes of the common people. But for the rich and powerful people of the family, no matter how famous the Oiran is, it is just a plaything.
Today's actors, actresses, and actresses are probably the same in their eyes.
But Chen Mo, who can be admitted to the School of Liberal Arts of Huajing University, is different. Just being a student in school gave Chen Mo a step forward. Not to mention that Chen Mo is still the fiancΓ©e admitted by the Mu family.
It's just for these two, not only the organizing committee of the Golden Crow Award, but now the big bosses in the circle who don't want to go online with Chen Mo?
Yang Qindong sighed a little embarrassed, and looked at Chen Mo with complicated eyes, "So this time you can be shortlisted for the Best Newcomer Award of the Golden Crow Awards, although our company has some common public relations, it really didn't take much effort." Even the people of the organizing committee held a special research meeting for you, if it weren't for the script of "Time Diary" that was too in-depth, I was afraid that the members of the organizing committee would nominate you for Best Actor. People have put so much effort into it, it's not good for you not to even participate in the celebration party, right? β
"Is that an exaggeration?" Chen Mo was stunned and asked, "Why don't I think the organizing committee has any special care for me?" β
Yang Qindong smiled when he heard this, and said in his heart that the Golden Crow Award is also one of the five most prestigious and influential film festivals in the world.
However, Yang Qindong still suggested that Chen Mo could participate in the celebration reception, "If you still want to develop in the circle in the future and still want to film, there is no harm in staying and participating in the reception." Interlacing is like separating mountains, and it will also help you to meet some people and listen to their ideas. β
Chen Mo blinked thoughtfully, looked at Mu Yu, who had been sitting on the sofa in the lounge silently, and smiled: "I originally wanted the two of us to celebrate after the ceremony." However, there is some truth in Dongge's words......"
Mu Yu didn't wait for Chen Mo to finish speaking, and already smiled and said: "I am accompanying you to the award ceremony today, of course you must have a beginning and an end to do things." It just so happens that I haven't attended such a drinking party, but today I am dragging your light to see. β
Mu Yu said so, and Chen Mo was no longer in a hurry to go home. It's just that he didn't mean to participate in the Qinggong faction, so he didn't prepare the corresponding dress. Fortunately, male actors have always been more casual than female stars at this point, and no one will care even if they wear the same set of clothes to participate in the celebration of gonggong.
By the time Chen Mo and Mu Yu arrived at Paiduì, the atmosphere here was in full swing. Everywhere, you can see well-dressed female stars and male artists in suits and leather shoes, holding slender goblets and chatting elegantly.
The arrival of Chen Mo and Mu Yu caused a commotion. The people with heads and faces on the pie duì all stepped forward to greet each other. Among them, there are familiar faces of Chen Mo, and there are also faces that Chen Mo has never seen, and even the members of the Golden Crow Award Organizing Committee greeted them, holding wine glasses to greet Chen Mo.
A member of the organizing committee of the Golden Crow Award, whose sideburns were all white, smiled and asked Chen Mo how he felt after winning the award. Chen Mo answered the old man's question with a smile, and the two chatted a few words about the award, during which the winner of the Golden Crow Award for Best Actor also looked for an opportunity to join the conversation.
After Chen Mo politely complimented the gold content of the other party's Best Actor award, I only heard the old man from the Golden Crow Award Organizing Committee suddenly sigh and said with a gloomy expression: "Compared with important awards such as Best Actor and Best Actress, the gold content of the Best Newcomer Award is only attractive to newcomers who have just debuted. However, for other artists who came to participate in the awards ceremony, they were neither qualified nor necessary to win awards. I think in the eyes of some people, the status of our practitioners in the entertainment industry is probably like this Best Newcomer Award. β
"However, in our opinion, we also have our own efforts to let more people in more countries around the world understand the culture and history of China. Times are different, even if the Chinese people still uphold the concept that everything is inferior only to high reading, but there should be some flexibility. For example, in the entertainment industry, making money is still a ......"
Chen Mo's heart moved slightly, knowing that the drama was coming. Although he didn't know why the other party would talk to such a newcomer as him on the Qinggong faction duì who met for the first time. However, this did not prevent Chen Mo from making his next moves.
He smiled and played with the champagne glass in his hand, making a look of listening to his ears.
