Chapter 840: Present an award to Yuan Bin
After entering the crew of "Secret Garden", Zhang Chengyuan concentrated on filming, and he habitually stopped paying much attention to what happened in the outside world, just paying a little attention to the box office trend after the release of "Grand Prix", but he only occasionally asked.
Of course, if something important happens, he will definitely find time to pay attention to it, and Lin Jixiu will never forget to inform him, but there is really nothing important happening during this time, at least for him.
After spending more than 20 days so peacefully, on October 29, the 47th Daejong Award ceremony was held at the Peace Hall of Kyung Hee University, and as the winner of the last Daejong Award for Best Actor, Jang Sung-won was invited by the organizer to present this year's Best Actor and Actress Award on the spot.
And after receiving the invitation, Zhang Chengyuan didn't want to go very much, he was rushing to shoot a TV series, how could he have time to give awards to others? Besides, with his status, he didn't need to worry about the organizer of the Big Bell Award, but he suddenly remembered that Yuan Bin was also shortlisted for this award with his excellent performance in "Uncle", and the chance of winning the award was very high, so he agreed. If you can award Yuan Bin, it seems to be a beautiful thing.
At about nine o'clock that night, Zhang Chengyuan came to the scene of the Dazhong Award ceremony, although he promised to present the Dazhong Award, but he would not go to the scene early to watch irrelevant actors win the award, wouldn't it be a waste of his precious time? Therefore, although he rushed back to Seoul from Jeju Island, where he was currently filming, at around 6 o'clock, he didn't rush to the award ceremony until half past eight, anyway, as long as he could catch up with the award for Best Actor.
By the time he arrived, the ceremony was more than halfway over. However, it is still very early to be awarded the Best Actor and Actress Award in the penultimate position. So he's not busy. casually said a word to the staff who came to receive him, and walked over to sit in an empty seat next to Yuan Bin and talked to him softly. The staff originally wanted to tell him about the matters to pay attention to when awarding the award, but when they saw him like this, they didn't dare to stop him, so they could only stand aside and wait for the time being.
After seeing Zhang Chengyuan. Yuan Bin couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?" Isn't it filming a TV series? Zhang Chengyuan didn't tell him in advance about coming to present the award, and the media didn't report it much.
Zhang Chengyuan laughed softly: "If I don't come, who will award you the Best Actor Award?" ”
Yuan Bin was slightly stunned, understood, and said, "I almost forgot that you were the winner of last year's Best Actor Award, so you came to present the award, but why did you come so late?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "What's the point of coming early, it's not to sit and wait?" How can I have such leisure? As long as you don't miss out on giving you an award. ”
Yuan Bin said: "It's hard to say whether I can win the award." Don't be in a hurry to say such things. ”
Zhang Chengyuan smiled: "I have a hunch that you will definitely be able to win this award tonight." So you'd better prepare to win the award in advance, and try to prepare the award speech to be beautiful and touching, so as to live up to the good intentions I came to present you with the award, well, remember to thank me by the way when you won the award, so as to let others know that I also have an actor friend. ”
Yuan Bin smiled faintly and said, "I hope so." Oh, by the way, congratulations on your "Grand Prix" breaking through the box office of 3 million in three weeks after its release, and maybe in another week or two, it will exceed 4 million as you wish. ”
Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile: "My hard work was not in vain, but compared with the box office of your "Uncle" of more than 6 million, it is still a lot worse." Moreover, this year's movies do not have the high box office of last year's "Haeundae" and "National Representative", presumably "Uncle" is this year's box office champion. ”
Yuan Bin said: "Maybe." Well, let's not talk about that, let's have a drink together if we have time? ”
Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile: "I'm happy to accompany you, I wanted to have a drink with you when my movie premiered last month, and I can make up for it tonight." Well, aside, I'll have to go backstage to get ready for the awards, and I'll see you on stage later. ”
Yuan Bin said: "Well, see you on stage, but only if I can go on stage." ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "It seems that you still don't believe my hunch, it's okay, wait a minute, you will know how accurate my hunch is." ”
Yuan Bin shook his head, didn't take his words seriously, and thought: "You just guessed right, it doesn't seem to be anything, besides you, there are many people who think that I will get this award." In fact, the call for Yuan Bin to win the Best Actor Award tonight was originally very high, so he only thought that Zhang Chengyuan was joking with him.
Zhang Chengyuan saw his thoughts at a glance, but he didn't explain anything, patted him on the shoulder, and then got up and left to go backstage, and the staff who stayed on the side and waited saw it and hurriedly followed.
When he arrived backstage, the staff respectfully told Jang Sung-won everything he had to say, and then introduced him to the actress Xiu Ai, who will be presented with him tonight, and she was the winner of the Best Actress Award at last year's Daejong Awards, so she was also invited to present the award. In fact, there is no need for the introduction of the staff, Zhang Chengyuan also knows Xiuai, after all, she is also an actor who has debuted for many years and is quite famous.
However, for this actress who won the Best Actress Award at the Daejong Awards, which should have belonged to Ha Ji Won last year, in his opinion, although Jang Sung-won was not angry with her, he didn't have a good impression of her, so after seeing her, he was very cold, and of course he was still thoughtful in terms of etiquette. Xiuai didn't think anything about this, because most of the insiders knew that Zhang Chengyuan had always been very cold and arrogant, and she only debuted in the same year as Zhang Chengyuan, and her status was even worse than Zhang Chengyuan, so how dare she say anything?
At that moment, the two politely exchanged words, and then discussed the opening remarks after the appearance, and they were silent, just waiting for the stage to present the Best Actor Award, Zhang Chengyuan also took out his mobile phone to text and chat with the sisters, and said that he would go back to Seoul tonight, hoping that which sister would be free tonight and be able to accompany him in his apartment for one night.
Fifteen minutes later, it was time to present the Best Actor Award, Jang Sung-won and Xiu-ai glanced at each other, and then smiled almost at the same time, and then walked from the backstage to the front stage holding hands. Both are professional actors, so although they are like passers-by with each other, they can still do it effortlessly when it is time to show intimacy. As for the award, it will naturally become a passerby again.
After going on stage, facing the audience, the two first introduced themselves calmly, and then said the opening remarks according to the lines they had just discussed. After a few words, the award ceremony began, with the audience being asked to look at the list of candidates and videos displayed on the big screen, followed by the announcement of the names of the winners.
Zhang Chengyuan opened the letter with the name of the winner, looked at it, and immediately laughed, then looked at Yuan Bin in the audience, and announced loudly: "The winner of the 47th Dazhong Award for Best Actor is, the actor of "Uncle" Yuan Bin-"
When the fans in the audience heard this, they immediately cheered loudly, and the guests also clapped and congratulated. I have to say that Yuan Bin's award this time is definitely expected, so everyone is happy to see it come to fruition, and there is no doubt.
Yuan Bin was a little confused, although he knew that he had a great chance of winning the award, but after confirming that it was him, he was still shocked, as if in a dream, after debuting for so many years, it was the first time he won this award, so he had to be excited.
After Yuan Bin came up, Zhang Chengyuan immediately stepped forward, handed him the trophy, and then hugged him again, and said with a smile: "Brother Dao Zhen, I said you would win the award, right?" ”
Yuan Bin smiled, but did not make a sound, he was already a little speechless with excitement at this time. Subsequently, Shen Dongye, one of the hosts tonight, asked him to give an acceptance speech.
Standing in front of the vertical microphone, Yuan Bin's spirit was still a little trance, and he was silent for a while before he said, "Thank you." And his eyes seemed to be moist, but because he was wearing black-rimmed glasses, they weren't very conspicuous.
Then he was silent for a while, and then he said slowly: "The profession of actor has always given me a lot of troubles and pressures, but even so, I am still very grateful that it allows me to stand on this stage today and make this speech...... Well, thanks to director Li Zhenfan...... and all the staff of the crew, as well as the audience who like "Uncle" and give us enthusiasm and care, thank you very much for your love...... Finally, at the request of my good brother Cheng Yuanxi, I would like to solemnly thank him for taking time out of his busy schedule to come here to present me with the award, and thank him for his encouragement and support to me over the years, especially before and after I joined the army. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Thank you! ”
Although he only said three or four sentences, he spoke slowly and after several long pauses, so he spoke for more than two minutes before he finished speaking. However, everyone also knows that he has always been relatively taciturn and clumsy in words, so he doesn't feel like anything.
As for Zhang Chengyuan, he was a little speechless, shook his head, and thought: "Brother Dao Zhen, I was just joking with you just now, you are still serious, it seems that you really can't joke with you casually in the future, besides, you can thank me if you thank me, but why say it is at my request?" I don't know how many people are going to laugh at me, at least some of my sisters will make fun of me. Of course, he didn't actually blame Yuan Bin in his heart.
Subsequently, the Best Actress Award was presented, and after handing the trophy to the winner and fulfilling his duties, Jang Sung-won stepped down from the stage and sat directly next to Won Bin, talking to him softly to pass the remaining time. Not long after, the last award, the Best Picture Award, was also awarded, but unfortunately it was not Yuan Bin's "Uncle", but another literary film that was far inferior to "Uncle" at the box office but received high praise. In this regard, Zhang Chengyuan is not surprised, because at the awards ceremony, literary films have always been easier to win awards than commercial films.
After the award ceremony, after dealing with the greetings of people in the circle, Zhang Chengyuan and Yuan Bin found a quiet hotel nearby to drink and chat, and celebrate Yuan Bin's award. That night, when Yuan Bin was drunk and delirious, Zhang Chengyuan let him go, and then asked Yuan Bin's agent to send him home, while he himself returned to the apartment by car.
