Chapter 90: Grand Prize Winner

First of all, the award closely related to Tang De is the best hip-hop video of the year.

There are many competitors, including the song "Passthecourvoisier (Part II)" by the famous rapper Bragging Daddy and several other rappers.

It's just that the one who finally won this award did not exceed the expectations of some media people, and it was Tang De's "Makeover" for Raymond.

With its unique use of color, this music video beat the MV of Nelly, who was also shot by Donde, and became the winner of the best hip-hop video of the year.

"Woohoo!" Raymond was so happy that he almost jumped up, he could think that after this award was released, his songs would definitely usher in another wave of sales peaks.

Singers have this benefit, and a classic work can often eat for a lifetime.

When receiving the award, Raymond played with Donde.

Raymond said a lot, including thanking his family, his mother, and his agent, as well as Donde.

As he himself said, he basically copied the letter that Tang De once wrote for him, but changed some details.

When he finished speaking, everyone applauded, and then it was Donde's turn.

But Tang De didn't say much, just picked up the microphone and said with a smile: "Actually, I want to thank Raymond and his agent Badman for this MV, because they gave me the opportunity, as for the rest of the words...... I'll leave it for the next awards. ”

"Hahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter, and the applause was deafening.

Host Jimmy Fallon explained after Don stepped down: "Really, you know what? Makeover, it's Don's first MV! He only started shooting music videos as a cinematographer and director this year, and he's a real newcomer, oh, my god! ”

"Oh my God!"

"Really?" The celebrity guests in the audience all covered their mouths to express their surprise, and the eyes that looked at Tang De also revealed a stronger sense of curiosity.

And Avril raised her head happily when she saw that Tang De was so popular, as if she was honored.

Then there was a succession of awards, and the best R&B video of the year was won by Mary Bligette for "No More Drama".

The best dance music video of the year was won by p!nk "Get the Party Started", but when the female singer gave her acceptance speech on stage, her face was ruddy and her speech was a little unfavorable.

Under the host's questioning, she herself admitted that she was drunk, which caused all the stars to laugh.

It didn't take long for the awards for Best Rock Video of the Year and Best Group Video to be announced after the performance.

And as time went on, more heavyweight awards began to be awarded, starting with the Best Male Artist of the Year video.

When Jimmy Fallon read Eminem's name, the audience boiled over, and this year his new song has become one of the best-selling singles of the year, taking the United States and the world by storm.

Watching Eminem and Joseph take the stage to accept the award together, Dylan and Northin in the media seats breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, although Donde took the lead, but Eminem's award was obviously more powerful.

It's just that when Jimmy Fallon said the name of the next award, the two frowned again.

Next, the winner of the Best Female Artist Video of the Year was announced...... Its nominees are......"

The shots on the big screen were given to several female artists, including Avril Lavigne.

Jimmy didn't sell anything, and after a few seconds of silence, the audience directly announced: "The winner of the best female artist video of the year is...... Avril Lavigne! ”

"Wow!"

"Congratulations!" The people around him congratulated.

Avril and Don got up together and stepped onto the stage.

Avril Lavigne talked about Tang De when she gave a speech, and she also looked at him affectionately.

Naturally, this scene was captured by reporters and intended to be used as a reporting picture.

However, Donde's speech was still brief, and he stepped off the stage after thanking the crew and Avril Lavigne a little.

The MTV Awards ceremony continued, and soon moved on to the International Audience Choice Awards, where Don also saw an acquaintance.

Zheng Jun, whose "1/3 Ideal" won MTV's International Audience Choice Award.

After that, MTV entered the presentation of professional awards.

The awards for Best Special Effects, Best Choreography, Best Editing and so on allow the behind-the-scenes staff to show their faces on stage.

Of course, the most talked-about of these was the Director of the Year award, which attracted the attention of the audience when Jimmy Fallon read out the name of the award.

The other competitors simply couldn't compete with the two, and they actually gave up the possibility of winning the prize.

After all, the MV of these two people is too amazing.

Dylan and Northin also clenched their palms slightly, waiting for the winner to appear.

The host looked at the performance of everyone in the audience and smiled slightly: "The winner of the best director of the year...... It's ......"

He deliberately paused for a moment to let the camera stay on the two of them, only to see Joseph nervously touching his forehead, while Tang De was as calm as if he was nothing.

The contrast between the two is obvious.

"The winner of Best Director is ...... SK8er BOI! Tang Dynasty! ”

“fxxk! How can it be! Dylan exclaimed, his face blushing in disbelief.

This is completely contrary to his perception of MTV's selection, which in the past has tended to give director awards to those who are more daring avant-garde.

Although he admits that Tang De's MV is very good, this fantastic MV is too fake, there are no flaws, no flaws, how can it be possible that such a big scene has no flaws!

If you look at it from the perspective of a movie, Donde's MV is like an award-winning short film that can go to the Oscars, it is unbelievably perfect.

So in Dylan's eyes, it is far less rough than Joseph's coming, and it is real.

At least the latter he can comment on the advantages and disadvantages, but the former ...... He can't seem to find fault with the work itself.

He even suspected that the work was produced by a film team, otherwise if it was really shot by Tang De himself, it would indeed be challenging his life experience in the past few decades.

With the same expression as him, Northin knew that Brady's expectations would not be met this time, and they would no longer be able to promote the best music video director to the client.

On the contrary, Edinson and those people can use this name to attract customers like crazy.

"Damn the British! Good luck. ”

He and Dylan can only hope that the Video of the Year goes to Joseph, so that they can save some face.

And in stark contrast to the unwillingness on the faces of the two, it was naturally Avril and Raymond, who applauded happily, especially Raymond, and the singer next to him took the initiative to talk when he looked at him: "See! My good brother! Donde! Awesome! ”

Donde stood on the podium, this time on a stage that was completely his own, and no one else accepted the award together.

So he picked up the microphone and delivered his acceptance speech: "You know, I've come up three times. ”

"Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed out loud.

"yes, yes, I think a lot of you must be muttering, damn Don, how can he always win awards?" Don De walked around the stage like a stand-up comedian: "But unfortunately, I said it, I hope some people don't get too sad tonight!" ”

"Hahahaha!"

"If you really feel sad, you can also come to me for a drink, as long as you can get me drunk, you can take this astronaut away." The MTV's trophy is the shape of an astronaut planting a flag on the moon.

"But if you hadn't drunk me, I'd say, 'Man, you're really inferior!'

"Bang!"

Outside the TV, Thorn, who was drinking heavily at home, threw the bottle in his hand against the wall with a crisp cracking sound.

His face was full of anger that he couldn't vent, and he wanted to rush into the TV and beat Tang De violently, if he hadn't robbed him of his job, he wouldn't have been beaten by black people twice in a row.

I won't enter the hospital for tens of thousands of dollars in one breath and almost go bankrupt!

After a few months of no work and no money, his life suddenly fell to the bottom, and now his wife is becoming more and more impatient with him!

"Thorn! What are you doing! "Said wife, wife arrived, but she was carrying a baseball bat in her hand when she went downstairs.

"Oh! I'm sorry! Wife, I'm not careful! Thorn hurriedly got up, staggered to his knees and cleaned up the broken glass, his face full of tears.

At the same time, the awards ceremony on the TV set was also carried out to an end.

After the new band's performance, Jimmy Fallon walked up to the stage with the all-important card and said to the crowd: "Tonight is so fast, and as we see that the ceremony is coming to an end, I am sure everyone must have been curious about the next award for a long time." ”

"That's right, it's Video of the Year! And now, I'm going to announce its nominees! ”

"First place! Eminem's "Without Me" camera shows Eminem, who raises his eyebrows with a cool expression.

"Second place! Superboy "Gone" camera continues to switch, and several handsome guys from Superboy are waving.

"Third ......" Jimmy Fallon announced the third to fifth nominees one after another, and everyone smiled at the camera.

"Last one, Avril Lavigne 'SK8er BOI'!"

The camera showed Avril, and she directly turned Dondra over and grinned together.

So who won this award? Who is he? I'm so curious, I'm going to take a sneak peek! Jimmy Fallon sold it in the end, and after reading it, he stared at everyone with exaggerated eyes: "This is crazy! ”

"The winner of the best video of the year is...... Avril and her SK8er BOI! ”

"Wow!" Exclamations.

"Wow!" Applause.

The two voices instantly drowned out Avril and Donde, and the two looked at each other and smiled, held hands, and walked onto the stage together.

Offstage, as a competitor Joseph, he took off his glasses with some loss and wiped them with a tissue.

Northin, who was sitting in the media seat, also closed his eyes and sighed, regretting that he did not sign with Tang De in time.

As for Dylan, he left the scene the moment the results were announced, he was going to the boxing gym to vent his frustration fiercely, and then write an article tomorrow to attack the injustice of the MTV awards.

Since there is no way to go back to the past and change his words, then go all the way to the end, at least readers will think that he is a fighter.

And after the awards ceremony, all the singers are looking for Donde, and even Michael Jackson wants to talk to the new best director.

It's a pity that they find that Donder has disappeared, and only his agent Carl is still there.

So Carl endured everyone's inquiries and compliments for Donde, and accepted countless business cards and phone calls, as well as various party invitations with a smile.

As for Donde, after receiving the award, he rushed directly to the airport and boarded a flight to Chicago.

Because tomorrow in Chicago, the song and dance film that won the Oscar for Best Motion Picture is about to start!
