Chapter 40: Best Supporting Actor Award

As the lights went out, the hall gradually dimmed, and only the lights on the stage were still dazzling.

Under the gaze of everyone, the two hosts slowly stepped onto the stage, sang and spoke a large part of the opening speech, and then invited the judges and guests to speak on stage one after another.

After waiting for a long time, the award ceremony finally officially began.

"The first award to be presented is the Best Art Award, and the films nominated for the awards are, "Twilight", "Dream Chaser", "Above the White Clouds", and "Life by the Sea".

With the words of the award presenters, the big screen behind the side played a short film synchronously, and every time a movie is mentioned, there will be a corresponding picture. The camera camera then swept across the audience, stopping at the nominees for several film crews.

According to the process, after reading the nomination list, the two guests did not announce the winners immediately, but chatted awkwardly on the stage for a while, and interacted with the people in the audience again, before opening the envelope and taking out the card with the winner's name written on it.

"The winner of the Best Art Award in the Film Newcomer Unit of the 24th Yanjing International Film Festival is." The male guest paused deliberately, and the female guest said the second half of the sentence, "Life by the Sea, Ciri Cyno." ”

"Congratulations to Ciri Cyno!"

The rest of the audience applauded in cooperation, and the audience immediately applauded.

Hearing the name, a foreign woman jumped up from her seat, burst into tears of excitement, and hugged the person next to her in celebration.

"Life by the Sea" is a foreign film, and for the film's creator, it is enough to be happy to win an award at the Yenching Film Festival, even if it is just a small award like the Best Art Award.

After winning this award and promoting it a little after returning to China, this woman named "Ciri Cyno" can immediately transform into a cutting-edge filmmaker in their country, so it's no wonder she is so excited.

After the winners were announced, the camera swept over the other three nominated film crews, capturing the expressions on people's faces.

did not win the award, and the art directors of the other three crews were a little disappointed.

And when the camera caught Wu Xiaofei, the smile on his face was still bright, and he was applauding the winners with a gentlemanly demeanor.

For the corresponding art director, the best art award is more important, but for the entire crew of "Dream Chaser", this is just a small award.

Wu Xiaofei's eyes have been staring at awards such as Best Director and Best Picture, so he doesn't bother to pay attention to any art awards.

The three Fang Bo in the back were also applauding, and their mentality was relatively relaxed at the moment.

Because "Night Club" has no special art director at all, if you really want to say it, it can only be Fang Bo as a director, and it is impossible to shoot any unique art effects with a budget of hundreds of thousands.

So although he easily reported his name when he registered, he didn't even get the nomination, so it naturally has nothing to do with this award.

Seeing the foreign woman named "Ciri Cyno" trotting up to the stage excitedly, and saying with tears in her eyes after receiving the award, Zhou Wei suddenly remembered something, turned her head and whispered: "Director Fang, Lao Xu, are you ready to give an acceptance speech?" ”

The three members of the crew, Fang Bo and Xu Hongsheng, were all nominated for awards, only Zhou Wei was not nominated at all, and this time she participated in the award ceremony purely to join in the fun.

So after completing her dream of walking the red carpet, her mentality was completely relaxed, and she still had the heart to pay attention to the acceptance speeches of the two people next to her.

Xu Hongsheng scratched his head and took out a small note from his pocket, "I'm ready, but I don't know if I will have the opportunity to speak on stage at the meeting." ”

Fang Bo smiled: "Old Xu, I think you still have a chance." ”

"I hope so." Xu Hongsheng smacked his lips, not having much confidence in himself.

Fang Bo's words were not purely to comfort him, in fact, the most promising award for the crew of "Night Club" was the Best Supporting Actor Award nominated by Xu Hongsheng.

After all, although "He Sanshui" in the movie is a supporting role, the role is very heavy and brilliant, and the impression left is even deeper than that of the actor "Li Junwei".

Therefore, compared with Fang Bo, the probability of Xu Hongsheng receiving the award is greater.

While several people were talking, the Best Art Award had been awarded, and the next one was the Best Editing Award.

Among the nominees for this award are still the editors of the crew of "Dream Chaser", but the editing award was ultimately missed by "Dream Chaser" and was won by another popular film "Twilight".

It's just another small prize.

Wu Xiaofei still didn't care, and continued to wait for the next prize.

can come down for Best Music, Best Recording, Best Supporting Actress, and three consecutive awards "Dream Chaser" have been nominated, but they all passed by.

didn't win any of the five awards, this is not like the results that a popular film should have, you must know that the crew of "Twilight" has come to the stage to accept the award twice, but the popularity of "Dream Chaser" is still silent.

No matter how much he comforted himself, when the camera caught Wu Xiaofei again, the smile on his face faded a lot.

"The next award to be presented is Best Supporting Actor......"

In a university dormitory in Shanghai.

Tian Xiaoling couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she saw the camera sweeping over the crew of "Dream Chaser" and stopping on the face of Li Hao, who was nominated.

The award presenter took out the card, glanced at it, and read aloud: "The winner of the Best Supporting Actor Award is, Xu Hongsheng of "Night Club"! ”

"Oops."

The favorite actor didn't win the award, Tian Xiaoling pursed her lips and frowned.

But the next moment, the picture was given to the crew of "Night Club", and when she saw Fang Bo next to Xu Hongsheng, her mood was a little better.

It turns out that the winner is from this crew, for the sake of the director being so handsome, it seems acceptable.

……

"Lao Xu, you have won an award!"

Hearing the names read out by the guests, Zhou Wei excitedly pushed Xu Hongsheng on the side, and shouted again and again, as if she was even happier than winning the award.

"Lao Xu, it's time for you to speak on stage." Fang Bo also said with a smile.

The surprise came too suddenly, Xu Hongsheng was stunned for a moment, and when he heard the reminder of the two, he stood up like waking up from a dream and walked towards the stage.

Watching Xu Hongsheng deliver a speech on stage, Fang Bo was not only happy, but also couldn't help but think of his two nominations.

The crew of "Night Club" received a total of three nominations, in addition to Xu Hongsheng's Best Supporting Actor, Fang Bo's Best Director and Best Screenplay.

Among them, Fang Bo believes that the most promising is the best supporting actor, followed by the best screenwriter. As for the best director, to be honest, he didn't even think about it.

Although he is very optimistic about "Night Club" in his heart, it is a small-budget movie after all, and he feels that if he can win the best supporting actor, at most there will be a best screenwriter, and he is already content, and he can't think too much.

Now that Xu Hongsheng has successfully won the award, his minimum goal has been achieved, and the next thing is to see who wins the best screenwriter.
