Chapter 136
Time is the most unpredictable existence in the world, and when you want to hurry, it is slow and leisurely; But when you desperately prayed to slow down, it suddenly turned into a sprinter......
Song Yan felt that he had just participated in the finale banquet of "T-Junction" yesterday, and today he was told that he was going to go out to participate in the Linde Film Festival.
Where did the time go?
When she stood in front of the mirror for the last time trying on the dress, Lu Qingyun had been chattering beside her, and her voice was full of obvious excitement, "...... You ready? ”
Song Yan, who was already nervous, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and squeezed out a few words painfully, "No." ”
Lu Qingyun immediately stared at her with eyes like eating shi, his expression was very fierce, "Don't say that when the media asks, otherwise you will definitely be killed, believe me." ”
So until the security check and getting on the plane, this young female star, who had high hopes from all parties, smiled and said nothing throughout the whole process, looking very calm.
Later, various media outlets described it like this:
"In the face of the upcoming international ceremony, Song Yan seems very calm and easy......"
"Although Song Yan is only in her twenties this year, this is not her first time going international, and we have already seen from this young actress that she is not shocked......
"She didn't say a word, but her smile showed a qiē, let us look forward to the arrival of the Song Yan era together!"
Song Yan: "......"
You're going to kill people if you write like that, really.
She really can't help but be nervous, because this year, only one film in China, "Alai", has been shortlisted for the final competition of the Linde Film Festival, and it is very likely to win more than one award. Since the beginning of the campaign for the Linde Film Festival at home and abroad a few months ago, countless cameras and eyes have been aimed at her, and even the smallest action will be interpreted by everyone to have a different meaning.
It's no wonder that everyone is looking forward to it, it's really that Huaguo has been silent for too long.
The last time a Chinese actor won the Best Lead Actor award at the Linde Film Festival was seven years ago, and the lead role was Wen Tang. Since then, although Huaguo Films has also broken into the final competition several times, they have all passed by the trophy without exception.
The domestic media also shifted from the quibbles and explanations at the beginning to the later "fate and inseparability......
And this year, the box office of "Alai" at home and abroad is so bad, and the evaluation of industry insiders is so high, if it can't win the award, it really makes no sense!
In addition to the crew of "Alai" who participated in the film festival together, Wen Tang was invited to be the guest of honor, as well as the spokespersons of major brand sponsors.
No matter how arrogant the old, middle-aged and young people who make literary films are, they are blind when they have no money at a critical time, so even the Linde Film Festival, which is known as the "clear stream of the film industry", has several local tyrant sponsors.
As the leading brand of photographic equipment in and outside the industry, DK naturally disdains to take the initiative to sponsor any occasion, even if countless photographers and directors are proud to use their products. However, this does not prevent it from promoting it, because in addition to its excellent production line, the brand also has an independent magazine that sells an amazing number of magazines in every issue.
There is no doubt about the purchasing power of the Chinese people, and as one of the most appealing female stars of our time, Song Yan has performed her duties as a spokesperson brilliantly, and the endorsement has pulled the sales of DK up by as much as 7 percentage points that year, almost double the expected value, and the number is almost equivalent to the population of a small European country.
It's simply amazing!
You must know that for a mature brand like DK, the customer base and annual consumption are basically fixed, and even if the advertising with the effect of a blockbuster will not have much effect.
There was also a relevant prediction at the DK headquarters before: although Huaguo is famous for not being bad for money, but after all, Song Yan's endorsement is only a newly established regional brand, and DK's senior executives also know that the price of their products is by no means affordable for ordinary residents, and it is estimated that the public is likely to take a wait-and-see attitude in the first year, for example, wait for the first batch of users to try it and release the experience before deciding......
However, I never expected that on the evening of the official launch of the Huaguo physical store pù, the person in charge of the Huaguo district called, and very concisely indicated the local "grim shape": "It has been sold out, and I ask for support from other markets!" ”
A few high-level executives are going to pound the table, okay?,This is the camera of DK.,I heard that the price of the entry-level model is enough for a down payment in a medium-sized city in China.,Don't you know what it means to be calm.,What is rational consumption?!
It's just, it's just...... It's so cool!
So without any hesitation at all, DK chose to take the initiative to ask for the extension of Song Yan's endorsement year and appropriately increase the endorsement fee.
Knowing that his spokesperson would also participate in the film festival, DK did not hesitate to send a film crew to give her an exclusive interview.
DK Magazine is basically divided into the following sections:
Inventory of classic products, analysis of new products of the month, display of military supplies, customer experience reports, the application of products in the film and television entertainment industry, and the last uncertain section.
The uncertainty section has a relatively high degree of flexibility, and sometimes the works of the photo contest organized by the official DK will be published, and by the way, this contest has become popular with many excellent photographers; Sometimes there will be an interview with the spokesperson, and if there is an interview, it often means that there will be several cover photos at the same time.
After the interview, several senior executives of DK also took the time to invite Song Yan to dinner, and bluntly said that if Song Yan can really win the championship at the film festival, then she is the global brand spokesperson.
It should be noted here that DK's global brand ambassador is not every year, and there are only five since its inception. These five spokespersons are either supermodels who have never been seen before, or they are real international superstars who have been directly engraved in the milestones of the entertainment industry. To this day, there are still many celebrities who are in the limelight and generously said in interviews that one of their life goals is to be a global spokesperson for DK......
Therefore, there are actresses and actors every year, but DK is the chief spokesperson, and it is better to lack than to abuse!
Even if he had analyzed with Lu Qingyun the possible meaning of this dinner before coming, Song Yan was also flattered by this news.
But if you think about it carefully, the reason why I can encounter such a good thing is that I am afraid that in addition to valuing his own film and television potential, the other party is more concerned about the terrifying consumption prospects of the Chinese people.
Therefore, as soon as Lu Qingyun asked her how she was after returning to the hotel, Song Yan immediately said with a stern face, "I love my motherland and people deeply!" ”
Lu Qingyun: "......"
Nima, the awards ceremony will start soon, but the artist doesn't seem to be very good!
On the day of the official red carpet, it was really a gathering of celebrities, and the crowd was like a bright Milky Way in the sky, full of star-studded superstars, and Song Yan, who was in it, suddenly felt like a gray potato.
As a star who has won the Best Actress trophy several times, although Wen Tang only came as an award presenter, the organizers still made a beautiful huge poster for her, which was hung in one of the most conspicuous positions.
But the most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the clearance treatment she enjoys.
Clearance, as the name suggests, the organizer will clear a star before stepping on the red carpet, so long and wide on the entire red carpet he/she alone, and thousands of cameras from all over the world, also only shoot him/her alone!
What grabs attention, what rubs the camera, all of them are not needed, my sister is just dragging like this, such a large place, my sister can walk as she wants, straight lines, detours, circles, forked waists, tilted heads, shrugged shoulders......
One word, cool!
As long as you are mixed in this circle, no one will not take being able to enjoy the clearance treatment as one of their lifelong goals!
Du Yun obviously attaches great importance to today's award ceremony, and he has always been raunchy, and he has also dressed up carefully, which is quite a bit ruined.
Song Yan's nervousness reached its first peak at this moment, her limbs were cold, her palms were full of sweat, her heartbeat was so violent that she almost burst her eardrums, even bright lipstick couldn't cover her lips.
Du Yun, who has been running with him for many years, has experience, and when he saw this, he hurriedly made a move, "Don't think about it, it's a rare opportunity, go chase the stars." ”
Originally, Song Yan refused, but when she was semi-forcibly turned her head and looked around, she completely fell.
The on-site personnel are basically Aunt Sauce's:
Superstar, Superstar, Actor, Superstar, Actress, Superstar, Actor, Actress, Legend, Superstar......
, don't chase stars now, when will you wait!
Then Song Yan took the initiative to participate in the activity of asking for photos and autographs.
Because there are a lot of superstars with lively personalities at the scene, they are making grimaces or something, and a group of people are wearing exquisite and valuable dresses under the spotlight, so the overall atmosphere is still relatively relaxed, but Song Yan was too nervous just now, and he didn't have time to feel it at all.
After preliminary communication with foreign counterparts, Song Yan was surprised to find that he still had a little fame!
After a few superstars smiled and took a photo with her, they even took a picture with her in turn and said, "I've seen you play "Alai", it's great!" "You're a great actor" or something like that.
Although it is not ruled out that this is just a must-have homework for everyone, when you hear the people you admire say that they are also very optimistic about you, the excitement and sense of accomplishment is really not covered!
Of course, there are also people who know her through Guòdk's endorsement advertisements, and in the end, a well-known photographer asked her with a smile if she could help get a discount coupon or something. However, he immediately showed that he was joking, and then Song Yan also smiled and said, "But I really have the privilege of discounting." ”
Photographer: "...... Why don't we exchange phone numbers? ”
Todu Yunjian yì's blessing, Song Yan was completely nervous in the next time, and even the guide read out the names of the crew, and when everyone was going to walk the red carpet, she still looked sorry.
Ahh
When Song Yan really sat down, that tension returned.
She wants to win the prize, and she's going crazy thinking about it!
So far, there is only one domestic award for Best Supporting Actress, which is obviously behind her soaring popularity, as a professional actor who wants to continue on the road of acting, she must win an award with international weight.
The high hopes given to her by so many people, how dare she, how could she lose!
Just like Zhao Zongze predicted in advance, in the two awards of Best Director and Best Cinematography, "Alai" did not say that it won the award, and it was not even shortlisted at all.
Then in the competition for best screenplay, "Alai" lost to a small-budget hunting movie, and once again passed by that trophy, Song Yan clearly heard a sigh from the screenwriter next to him.
The competition for this year's Best Foreign Language Film is quite fierce, and among the films co-shortlisted, several of them are praised by even Du Yun and Zhao Zongze after watching them, and the former even said in person that even if this award falls on any of the shortlisted works today, it is well deserved!
However, the goddess of fate probably didn't want to play tricks anymore, and later everyone finally heard the word "Alai" from the mouth of the award presenter......
After winning the Best Foreign Language Film Award, Song Yan felt a little relieved, and with this award as a guarantee, her acting skills as the only protagonist can be regarded as recognized by the public.
However, I really want the best actress!
Among the actors who were jointly shortlisted for Best Actress, there are many veterans who have been "fighting" with this award for many years, and there is even a female star who won the actress crown a few years ago!
To be honest, before taking the stage, Song Yan once had symptoms of deafness and blindness, she couldn't hear anyone talking, and the uncontrollable brain in her mind made up scenes of unbelievable scenes, and her vision was even more blurry, until someone slapped her arm hard.
"You, it's you!"
Du Yun was already about to go crazy with joy, so he directly dragged Song Yan up, then hugged her fiercely, and hit her back violently, "Don't be in a daze, come on stage to accept the award!" ”
After speaking, seeing that Song Yan still didn't move, he simply pushed the person out.
It wasn't until the high heels staggered on the steps that Song Yan came back to his senses in hindsight and was surprised by the thunderous applause in his ears, mixed with the smiling ridicule of the award presenters.
"Oh, don't worry, no one can snatch your trophy."
Standing in front of the microphone, facing the countless seniors and peers in the audience, the first thought that popped into Song Yan's mind turned out to be:
Special Du Yun, you shoot so hard!
Then, in great distress, she found that she could not stop crying.
At first, she was in a hurry to wipe it, but when she found that she couldn't wipe it clean, and she simply soaked the three tissues handed over by the staff, Song Yan simply gave up.
While she was in tears heartily, she said a thank you speech upside down:
"Actually, I was ready to give a thank-you speech before I came, but I'm sorry, I've forgotten it all now."
The scene burst into laughter.
By this time, Song Yan's mind had basically cleared up, but his mouth was not very obedient.
She took advantage of the waiting for the applause to pass and calmed down a little, and then thanked the ones who should be thanked in turn, and finally raised the trophy to the camera with tears on her face, declaring it to the world.
“ting.”
This is just the beginning.
