Chapter 406: Asia-Pacific Film Festival (2)
As he continued to walk forward, the smile on Zixi's face did not diminish, but he had always wondered why a resident of Taiwan would change such a name to himself. "Are they calling me?" For the "Prince. The name "Xi" is very unfamiliar, but Zixi waved his hand with a smile and asked Lin Chiling beside him in a low voice.
"Don't you know the way?" Lin Chiling was surprised and asked in amazement.
"What do you know?" Zixi was even more stunned than Lin Chiling.
"Prince Zixi!" Lin Chiling seemed to understand this, approached Zixi, smiled and said softly: "It seems that it first spread from South Korea, it is said that after you appeared on a Korean variety show at the beginning of the year, your performance was outstanding, and Fans began to call you that on the Internet." At first, it was 'Prince Zixi', but later some fans directly called you 'Wang. 'Zixi', 'Wang' seems to mean the most powerful in Korean. Then many fans and media also shouted, and even Japan and Taiwan also changed their titles, calling 'Wang. Zixi' changed to'Prince. Hee', it's almost becoming your new stage name, and now basically your fans and fans in Asia call you that, don't you know at all? ”
Zixi and Lin Chiling talked closely, and in their opinion, it was nothing. However, their intimate behavior immediately attracted many media, but Zixi rarely showed too much intimacy with female artists. There have been a lot of scandals before, but it's the first time to talk to a beautiful woman so openly and intimately.
Zixi was a little helpless, the only variety show he participated in was Jiang Hudong's "Love Letter", and this name must have come out at that time. He spent most of his time in the United States for more than half a year, although he occasionally returned to South Korea to shoot commercials, but it was all done in secret, not to mention the media, and even Kim Tae-hee waited for him to go home to find out that he had returned to South Korea, so Zi-hee had never heard of this new title at all. It's just that he didn't expect to change his stage name just by participating in this show, isn't it a bit of a thing.
Zixi and Lin Chiling walked hand in hand to the small stage built by the Little Arena, where they were all going to leave their autographs. And Xiao S and Su Kangyong will not let them go, and they will start temporary interviews. Fortunately, Zixi has long been familiar with these, and even in the face of the two celebrities, he was not embarrassed by them.
The only thing that made Zixi a little difficult to answer was what Xiao S asked: "Do you think Zhiling is beautiful?" ”
Zixi nodded and replied, "It's beautiful!" ”
Xiao S then asked, "Do you like Chi Ling so much?" ”
Zixi nodded with a smile and said, "Who doesn't like beautiful women?" ”
This was originally a very polite remark, but Xiao S grabbed the handle and asked: "Zixi can't lie, there are countless fans of yours here." Then you answer me, since you like Chi Ling, have you ever thought about dating? You are all handsome men and beautiful women, looking at you standing together, you are simply a natural pair, golden boy and girl. ”
How does this make Zixi answer? Don't want to date? Then it proves that what he said before was a lie, or he didn't like Lin Chiling, and it was simply a trap that Xiao S gave Zixi to step on.
Just as Lin Chiling wanted to relieve Zixi, Zixi, who was used to seeing the world, had already reacted, and said with a smile: "Miss Xu Xidi is also a big beauty!" I also like Miss Xu Xidi's too. ”
"Ugh!" Xiao S was choked. glanced at Zixi, pushed away Su Kangyong, who wanted to interview Lin Chiling, with one hand, and didn't care that his partner rolled his eyes, stretched out the microphone in front of Lin Chiling, and said, "So what does Chiling think of Zixi?" It seems that he doesn't like you very much, but he actually likes me, a married woman. When Zixi heard Xiao S's words, she almost didn't catch her breath. Can you understand it that way?
Lin Chiling chuckled lightly when she saw Zixi's aggrieved appearance, but Su Kangyong on the side was fascinated, and her saliva was about to flow out. Zixi was also attracted by Lin Chiling's smile, and her smile was too beautiful and moving.
"I get along very well with Zixi, he is very good, there is no shelf, and he doesn't look like an international star. As for Zixi liking you, it's because Xidi is beautiful! ”
Xiao S glanced at Lin Chiling again, pushed Su Kangyong, who was confused, and said angrily: "I've returned to my soul!" ”
After a small episode, Zixi and Lin Chiling were finally able to enter the Little Dome. Taipei Arena is an important indoor venue facility in the overall planning and construction plan of sports facilities in Taipei. In addition to providing an optimized design for spectator competitive sports activities, Taipei Arena's multi-purpose design can effectively support the use of other events such as performing arts, concerts, and large-scale celebrations.
The asymmetrical roof ceiling can reduce the sound diffraction of large indoor venues, improve the problem of spatial reverberation, and improve the quality of broadcasting. The ring is equipped with a high-altitude catwalk, and a large hanger is configured above the central stage and the remote stage position to reduce the cost of lighting arrangement for performance activities. The museum also provides a large performance facilities and equipment expandability interface, for the event unit to add relevant equipment to achieve perfect lighting and sound effects.
Zixi and Lin Chiling were arranged in the front row, passing by all the way, many of the artists who entered the venue before had already taken their seats, and only a few who knew each other got together to chat in twos and threes. When many people saw Zixi and Lin Chiling, they first cast stunned eyes, and then were surprised.
Facing the gaze of these people, Zixi looked calm. These people have artists and directors from Vietnam, Iran, India, Japan, Thailand and local Taiwan, but Zixi really doesn't know them at all, and a few are a little familiar, but they can't name them. He had no choice but to see everyone smiling and nodding and saying "hello".
Just because Zixi doesn't know people doesn't mean that others don't know him. Except for Iran, which strictly bans foreign films, most of the artists and directors in the venue know Zixi, because Zixi's fame in Asia in the past two years is too loud. And he starred in several Hollywood blockbusters, which made him an international star, even if he didn't meet him, he had heard the name after all.
After Zixi sat down, actors and directors from different countries introduced themselves and got to know each other from time to time. There is no problem for people in the English-speaking area to communicate, and Japanese and Chinese are not difficult at all. But there are many who use the local dialect, or Hindi and Arabic, and Zixi is helpless. It's better to have a translator, but if you don't, you can only barely communicate through body language.
The 51st Asia-Pacific Film Festival Awards Ceremony was officially held, and the organizing committee invited filmmakers from all over the world to participate, and the award-winning films also came from various Asian countries and regions.
Zixi just sat down and watched it boringly, and he basically didn't know every film or actor that was awarded. In addition to introducing the nomination, from the quick flashes of pictures and introductions, a little understanding of the basic theme of the film, Zixi's eyes were smeared.
Fortunately, Lin Chiling was sitting next to him, this big beauty had obviously done her homework, and she couldn't help but laugh when she saw Zixi sitting with a blank face. After asking, I learned that Zixi has seen very few films. In addition to a few Korean films, Zixi has also watched the film "If Love" from Hong Kong and the Taiwanese movie "Mermaid Duoduo", which he rented from a video store to pass the time when he was free in the United States.
In order not to affect the people around her, Lin Chiling leaned on Zixi's ear and whispered to him to introduce each movie. Although she has not seen every one, but many days in the film industry, even if she doesn't have time to watch, there are also introductions to relevant participating films, Lin Chiling participated in this kind of large-scale awards party for the first time, of course, she can't know nothing at all, she has done her homework, and she has become Zixi's narrator tonight. However, their intimate demeanor was captured by the camera again, and it seems that tomorrow's scandal about Zixi and Lin Chiling will inevitably appear.
At this year's Asia-Pacific Film Festival, South Korea and Iran are undoubtedly the biggest winners. South Korea won major awards such as Best Supporting Actor, Best Editing, Best Sound and Best Short Film.
When the award presenters were shouting Son Ye-jin's name, she finally won the crown of Asian actress, and she cried on the spot. No matter what the people around him think, before going on stage, he ran to Zixi's side and hugged him excitedly. However, these did not attract too many people's attention, and excitement is something that every award-winning actor must experience. Zixi and Son Ye-jin are partners in cooperation, and now that they have won the award, it is natural to hug their partners, and it does not seem abrupt.
The actress was produced, and the actor attracted extreme attention, even Zixi, who had a lot of complaints about this Asia-Pacific Film Festival, was nervous when he was about to be nominated. Lin Chiling beside her also felt that the previous light Zixi was gone, and now Zixi is just like the students who released the college entrance examination list, looking forward to her name appearing on the list.
"Don't worry, with your acting skills and popularity, it should be fine. It is not unreasonable that many media have rated you as a big hit before. Lin Chiling tried to soothe Zixi's unstable heart, and said coquettishly: "I have also seen this film [Outing], you acted very well, and performed the actor's inner world very wonderfully, and spread a love full of contradictions and helplessness to the depths of every audience's heart." I think the judges' eyes will know how to choose."
Zixi could only answer with a smile, although it didn't matter to him whether he won the award or not, but who could ignore an award? In particular, this award is the biggest film award in Asia on the surface, and the winners of this award are all highly recognized actors, and it is also the best annotation to prove their strength.
The award presenter invited Liu Tianci, the managing director of the largest entertainment company in Taiwan and even Asia, and after Liu Tianci, who was full of gorgeous hair, came to the stage, he didn't say much nonsense, and directly watched the list of nominees. If you don't get the award, you don't know what the media will write about.
Opening the envelope, Liu Tianci looked inside, showing a sudden smile, but his eyes were already fixed on Zixi. "This award-winning actor, I watched him be born and watched him grow up. I have loved acting since I was a child, and now I have become an internationally renowned actor, and I realized that I am really old, and the future should belong to young people. The 51st Asia-Pacific Film Festival Competition Unit, the winner of Best Actor, Zixi from the Korean film "Out]. ”
The applause rang out like thunder again before Liu Tianci could say his name, and many viewers stood up to celebrate Zixi. There was a burst of shouts from the audience, "Prince. Hee..., Prince. Hee...". Some improvised support cards were held high, and these were all temporary slogans written by fans on cardboard after learning of Zixi's arrival, and written in Korean and Chinese on them.
Zixi was pulled up by Lin Chiling, who had a happy face, and accepted the congratulations of the surrounding guests, and Zixi also came to the [Out] crew and hugged Director Xu Zhenhao and Son Ye-jin excitedly. The actor and actress were picked up by a film at the same time, which is unprecedented. Director Heo Jin-ho feels that he can breathe out turbidity, and the cold reception he suffered in South Korea is finally getting everything back.
After receiving the trophy, Zixi didn't know what to say, and stood there blankly, not mentally prepared for winning the award, let alone any acceptance speech. After the last, under Liu Tianci's reminder, looking at the countless expectant eyes below, he had to thank the jury first, and then thank the entire crew of [going out].
