233. Awards (2)
The Academy Awards are no longer the only ones that belong to HK people. Due to its historical background and the booming development of the film and television industry in the surrounding countries, the Academy Awards now contain more and more off-site elements.
For example, in this year, Ye Sumang's movie alone won thirteen nominations. In the past, only local films from HK could have won such favor.
Moreover, with Ye Sumang's participation, the award ceremony of this year's Academy Awards has also attracted the attention of mainland media. Many newspapers have sent reporters to interview to get first-hand information. This has also led to the media area of this year's Academy Awards Awards ceremony that has to double in previous years. Even so, many media reporters still have not won a good position.
The first one to appear in front of the media was naturally Wen Jun, the chairman of this Academy Awards. The Academy Awards chairman who had already taken office last year can be said to be the biggest contributor to the entry of the Academy Awards into the mainland. Many mainland filmmakers were invited by him personally. Last year, Ye Sumang actually received an invitation letter, but Ye Sumang, who was only shortlisted for two events, did not attend the audience in person.
This year, Wen Jun contacted Ye Sumang in person and asked him to attend. This emphasis can also show the other party's attitude towards the mainland market.
After all, HK's film market is becoming increasingly sluggish now, and the only way out is to develop in the mainland, which is why more and more HK directors have been filming in the mainland over the years.
Wen Jun's appearance is not the focus, the focus is on the safe in his hand.
All media reporters know that the final result of today's Academy Awards is in this small safe, and for a moment, all media reporters' cameras and microphones were also aimed at this little old man.
"Chairman Wen, what is the biggest highlight of today's Academy Awards?"
"Chairman Wen, can you reveal who will be the biggest winner of this year's Academy Awards?"
"Chairman Wen..."
The media's questions were either direct or implicit, but the purpose was the same. They wanted to make a little noise from the old man's mouth. They also knew that it was impossible for Wen Jun to say the result, but as long as he could reveal a little bit of the wind direction, that would be enough.
"Although I am the chairman, I am not a judge. How could I know the result? Don't look at me carrying a box, but I don't have a key. Don't ask. Anyway, in a few hours, everyone in the world will know." Wen Jun smiled and perfunctorily told the reporters without any slightest expression.
In desperation, all media reporters could only look at the box that Wen Jun was holding, and disappeared step by step in front of them.
However, as the stars gradually arrived, all the media's just lost hearts slowly rekindled.
This year's Golden Star Awards can be called star-studded. Before the red carpet show was underway, many media films had been murdered, including Liang Chaowei, Liu Jialing, Zhang Baizhi, Wu Yanzu, etc. Almost every time the host calls out a name, there will be a lot of calls on the scene.
Ye Sumang, who was already waiting outside, could hear clearly even when he was sitting in the car.
"Remember to smile when you go out later, and it's a little more natural. Don't answer questions from the media. By the way, remember to shake hands with fans..." At this time, Joey, sitting in the passenger seat, kept reminding Zhou Xun and Ye Sumang behind him.
On today's red carpet, the two of them will walk together.
Ye Sumang sat in the back seat of the car, listening casually to Joey's instructions, while looking out the window, his thoughts had floated far away.
Zhou Xun, who was beside him, kept his eyes on the figure on Ye Sumang's side, his eyes were like a pool of spring water, and it was filled with ripples from time to time.
"Have you two listened carefully to me?" No one talked to you for a long time later, and Joey also noticed something was wrong. He turned around and saw that both of them were actually in a state of distraction. Obviously, all of them were said in vain.
"Sister Joey, don't be nervous." Ye Sumang also withdrew his thoughts at this time and said with a smile.
"Am I nervous? Why am I nervous?" Joey made an incredible expression, but his heart felt a little weak, because there was another reason for her chatting like this, that is, she was really nervous too.
After all, this kind of major award ceremony is something that everyone in the company attaches importance to, especially she is also the head of the agency department. Today's awards are not only the company's honor, but also the honor of its artists, Zhou Xun's Best Actress, and Yuan Hong's Best Supporting Actor. These are all things that make Joey worried about gains and losses.
Before she knew it, she, a strong woman, couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Forget it, I won't say much. By the way, Su Mang, if you don't understand Cantonese well, just remember to smile when you can." Joey smiled mockingly, and then quickly returned to his ability at work.
Ye Sumang just smiled and didn't answer. Although his expression looked very calm, the turbulence in his heart was not less than Joey.
After all, this is his first film that has been valued at major awards ceremony. Even if Ye Sumang is calm, he can't help but feel a little worried before facing the awards. Among the three people sitting in the car, Zhou Xun is probably the most indifferent. In this little woman's heart, perhaps being able to accompany Ye Sumang is a kind of happiness, and the award is not important.
As time passed, it was soon Ye Sumang and the others stepped onto the red carpet.
As Cadillac's high-end sedan slowly stopped, a security guard came forward and opened the car door. Then Ye Sumang and Zhou Xun walked on the red carpet of the Golden Horse Awards for the first time.
What greeted them was naturally the warm calls from the fans around them and the flashes of the media constantly shining.
"Director Ye, this year your work "If? Love" has thirteen nominations, which of these nominations are the most accurate?"
"Original music and soundtrack." Ye Sumang replied with a smile. He was indeed the most confident in these two awards, and he was filming musical and dance films. If neither of these two awards are confident, then don't just forget it.
"What about the best actress? Miss Zhou Xun next to you was also shortlisted for the Best Actress Award this time. I wonder how confident you are about Miss Zhou Xun's chance of winning this time?"
When Ye Sumang heard this, his eyes couldn't help but look at Zhou Xun beside him, but found that the girl had a smile on her face, and she could not see any nervousness, but she seemed very relaxed.
Turning his head, Ye Sumang couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that Zhou Xun's mentality was indeed very good. However, as the director of the film "If? Love" and also the immediate boss of Zhou Xun's company, Ye Sumang naturally still had to say something strongly supported.
