Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 706 I can’t lose to you

After Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei hugged Jiang Xin, they immediately sat down on their seats.

The Popular Mainland Actor and Actor Awards have been handed out, and the next thing to be handed out is the Best New Actor Award.

As He Jiong presided over, the shortlist and the introduction of their respective works appeared on the big screen.

Huang Xuan, "Zhu Xian" and "Struggle"; Zhao Liying, "Zhu Xian", "Struggle"; Liu Shishi, "Sword of Sword 3"; Li Xin, "Legend of Red Flame"; Ru Yi Zha, "Magic Phone".

The Golden Eagle Festival is held every two years. According to the rules of this award, actors who have debuted works within the past two years are all eligible for this award. Those with outstanding personal acting skills or outstanding works will be shortlisted first.

Chu Xuan saw the shortlist. The first four were all familiar with his works, but the last one, "Reyizha" and "Magic Phone", was a bit beyond his expectation.

According to the original trajectory, the heroine of "Magic Phone", "Sha Niu", was played by Su Chang.

It's just that Su Chang's development trajectory has been changed, but unexpectedly, Re Yiza came to replace Su Chang in this role.

"I am a butterfly, but I don't know how many people I have affected." Chu Xuan thought amusingly.

"Who do you think won the prize?" Liu Yifei asked softly. Four of the five people were acquaintances, and the first two were her own, which aroused her a lot of interest.

Hearing her question, Chu Xuan didn't think much about it: "Huang Xuan."

As soon as he finished speaking, the award-winning guest Hou Yong said: "Congratulations to Huang Xuan."

Liu Yifei blinked, raised her hand and gave Chu Xuan a thumbs up.

Chu Xuan smiled slightly. It was really not difficult to guess that one of these five candidates would win the award.

Although Reyi Zha is the heroine of "Magic Phone" and her role is sufficient, the show is not popular enough and it is only a small hit at best.

Li Xin plays Liu Yifei's maid Qinghong in "Legend of Red Flame", which is only a small supporting role. If "Legend of Red Flame" hadn't received such huge ratings, Li Xin would probably not have been nominated.

Although Liu Shishi's "Sword and Sword 3" is a hit, it didn't last long after it was aired and the popularity continues, but Liu Shishi, who is only a supporting actor, is not enough to take off with this one drama.

On the other hand, compared to the other three, Huang Xuan and Zhao Liying have two popular dramas under their belts. This is a bit bullying, but it is also in line with the rules of the Golden Eagle Festival. They have only debuted in the past two years.

Compared with the male protagonist Zhang Xiaofan played by Huang Xuan, Zhao Liying's Baguio and Yang Xiaoyun are supporting roles. From this point of view, Zhao Liying is weaker than Huang Xuan.

Therefore, it is obvious that Huang Xuan won the award.

"We agreed, treat me to dinner for a month." Zhao Liying said to Huang Xuan who stood up.

"Okay." Huang Xuan was very excited in his heart, but he, who was always very steady, only answered with a slight smile and walked towards the ceremony stage.

Liu Shishi, Re Yizha and Li Xin were sitting in various places, looking at Huang Xuan who walked on the stage, they felt envious and disappointed.

Although they had expected that the prize would go to either Huang Xuan or Zhao Liying, they still felt very regretful at the moment when the answer was revealed.

The Newcomer Award is something that only happens once in a lifetime. If you don’t get it this time, you will miss it completely.

This award is not as important as the subsequent awards, but its personal significance to the actor is irreplaceable.

"Didn't Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei win this award too?" After thinking about it, they felt much better.

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei really didn't expect that the few people who didn't win the award would use them as examples to comfort themselves. At this moment, the couple only applauded Huang Xuan and sent their most sincere congratulations to Huang Xuan.

After Huang Xuan said some official words of thanks, He Jiong asked: "Huang Xuan, I heard that when you played the role of Zhang Xiaofan, there was some controversy within your crew, right?"

Huang Xuan thought for a while and chose to speak bluntly: "Yes, I have my own disputes."

"You have a dispute yourself?" He Jiong smiled.

Huang Xuan said: "I graduated from Beijing Dance University. I majored in dance, musical theater, and had some basic acting skills, but I had no experience in acting. Suddenly I was asked to play the male lead. At that time, I was extremely excited. I’m not confident. Why should I, a person who has never acted before, play the male lead? Do I have the ability?"

"What happened next?" He Jiong asked.

Huang Xuan said: "It was my brother Chu Xuan who was both a teacher and a friend, and Liu Yifei. They gave me confidence, encouraged me all the time, and allowed Zhao Liying and me to study and observe on the set of "Crazy Stone" at that time. Let us know what acting is and what actors are, so we are where we are today."

Hearing this, many people at the scene couldn't help but look at the location of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. No wonder Jiang Xin said that these two people were very good, and Huang Xuan's remarks were confirmed.

In order to train newcomers, they are sent to another crew to study. This is equivalent to using one's own favors to help others. Such behavior is rare in the industry.

"If I remember correctly, after "Zhu Xian" and "Struggle", you still have no works published. What is the reason for this? Can you tell me?" He Jiong asked again.

Huang Xuan said: "It was Brother Chu Xuan's suggestion. He was afraid that we would bloat, so he asked Zhao Liying and I to settle down for a year and go to a teacher from China National Theater to study hard for a year to lay a solid foundation in acting. Brother Chu Xuan said that without real talent and hard work, , everything gained is just a flash in the pan after all, I think it makes sense."

The audience burst into applause. He Jiong on the stage, Li Xuejian, Chen Baoguo, Zhang Fengyi, Jiang Wen and other seniors in the audience couldn't help but turn their heads and glance at Chu Xuan's position, their eyes filled with admiration.

Perhaps Huang Xuan's words are not recognized by those who pursue traffic. They should just take advantage of the hot trend and settle down.

But these words are definitely worthy of praise in the hearts of senior teachers and those who pursue long-term planning.

Without real acting ability, most of it relies on luck and business market talent. If you just dive into the market like this, and if the market trend changes one day, then this actor will soon be wiped out from the public.

Only with a certain level of performance can you change your career direction as the market changes.

Chu Xuan's advice to Huang Xuan and Zhao Liying is enough to affect their lives. This is what real actors should do.

"Chu Xuan is okay, just treat him differently." Teacher Jiang Wen said.

Huang Xuan walked off the stage and waved to Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei in the distance. He did not run over to hug the two of them as freely as Jiang Xin did. His temperament was different, so his words and deeds were naturally different.

"It just so happens that many teachers look at you with admiration." Liu Yifei said happily.

"You are different too?" Chu Xuan smiled.

First, Hu Ge attributed the reason for the popularity of the drama to their "Sword and Sword 1".

Then came Jiang Xin, who gave them special thanks for winning the award.

Then Huang Xuan returned all his achievements to the two of them.

To be honest, this made the couple feel that it didn't matter whether they won or not at this Golden Eagle Festival. They were already full of honors.

Immediately afterwards, the Most Popular Actor Award was presented.

The finalists are: Chu Xuan, Lin Zhiying, Lin Xinru, Ren Quan and Zhao Wei.

No masterpiece is required to be shortlisted for this award, as long as the actors have produced works in the past two years, regardless of the quality of the works or the performance of the works, all the actors can be voted by the audience, and the winners are determined purely by online and offline audience votes.

Unlike the Mainland Popular Awards, which are limited to mainland China, this award covers Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and is national in nature. Together with the Golden Eagle Goddess Award, it is also known as the two purely commercial awards of the Golden Eagle Festival.

"Damn, these five people..." Yuan Hong looked like he was watching a show.

These five people can be said to be the five most popular kings in the entertainment industry, and it will be no problem for anyone to win the award.

"This is a PK between the mainland and the treasure island." Hu Ge was full of interest.

Chu Xuan, Ren Quan and Zhao Wei are mainland actors, while Lin Zhiying and Lin Xinru are Taiwanese actors, a three-on-two situation.

"Who do you think won the award?" "Struggle" screenwriter Shi Kang asked.

This award did not exist in previous years. It was added two years ago with the Golden Eagle Goddess Award. Many people are not sure about this award.

"Whoever has the highest commercial value at the moment will win the award." screenwriter Yu Zheng speculated.

This award reflects commercial value. It is not professional and relies entirely on the favor of the market.

In other words, the national audience selected these five actors. Which actor is the most loved by the audience and has never won an award before, which actor will win.

"Congratulations Chu Xuan." Awards guest Jiang Wen announced the answer.

It turned out to be Chu Xuan? ! ...Many people present were a little surprised. Shouldn't Chu Xuan be the best actor? It seems that the speculations spread on the Internet are wrong.

Screenwriter Yu Zheng narrowed his eyes: "I guessed it right."

"Struggle" is a hit, but its ratings are not explosive. It falls within the reasonable range of the TV market. There are several TV series in the past two years that have surpassed the results of "Struggle", and there are also a few that are not weaker than "Struggle". .

Judging from the ratings results, "Struggle" is not enough to give Chu Xuan much bonus in the competition for the Best Actor award, so it can only compete with his acting skills.

However, "Struggle" is an idol drama and does not require a high level of acting skills.

It's not that Chu Xuan's acting skills are weak, but based on this drama alone, Chu Xuan is not popular in terms of acting.

Although "Legend of Red Flame" has received huge ratings, giving Chu Xuan a boost in the competition for best actor, and Chu Xuan's acting skills in this drama are also outstanding, the very embarrassing thing is that Chu Xuan is in this drama. There are not enough scenes, and it is not as good as the supporting role of Ren Quan.

In this way, it is normal that Chu Xuan cannot compete for the Best Actor Award. It is reasonable to settle for the Most Popular Actor Award to prove Chu Xuan's top commercial value. This is also the best choice that the organizing committee has received. solution.

Liu Yifei looked at Chu Xuan. In her heart, she most hoped that Chu Xuan would win the Best Actor award. This was the most authoritative award and the highest recognition for an actor, but now it seemed hopeless.

But, the Most Popular Award represents the love for Chu Xuan from audiences across the country, including those from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. This is also a very good honor.

What is lost is the east corner, and what is gained is the mulberry tree. She didn't know whether she should be happy for Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan stood up and opened his arms to her. Seeing Chu Xuan's satisfied smile, Liu Yifei looked congratulatory, stood up and hugged him: "Congratulations, you are the best male protagonist in my mind."

Chu Xuan patted her back gently, separated from her and walked straight to the ceremony stage.

Ren Quan applauded and sent congratulations to Chu Xuan. With his relationship with Chu Xuan and being inside the group, he knew how popular Chu Xuan was, and he really couldn't compete with him in this award.

In the 1990s and the beginning of the new millennium, Lin Zhiying could be said to be the absolute most popular king in the entertainment industry, and was even popular throughout Asia. However, talents have emerged from generation to generation, and new generations have replaced old ones. Now it is no longer his era.

But looking back on the past, on the set of "Dragon", Chu Xuan's crushing on him in acting is still vivid in his mind, but his extremely free and easy way of giving up this highlight to highlight himself has made him still remember it.

He said at that time that Chu Xuan would be popular.

Sure enough, Chu Xuan's achievements over the years have been difficult to match, and now he has surpassed him in the popularity competition. Lin Zhiying clapped her hands, with two dimples on her face. While congratulating Chu Xuan, she also wanted to say: "You said you wanted to come to me to learn racing, but you haven't come for so many years, you liar!"

Zhao Wei and Lin Xinru sat together. They looked at each other and shrugged at the same time.

For Lin Xinru, she met Chu Xuan on the show "Men and Women", and Chu Xuan soared to the sky with this drama. On the contrary, her career has been tepid in recent years, which made her very unconvinced. But there is nothing you can do.

For Zhao Wei, she has been trying to get rid of the three words "Little Swallow" all these years, but it turns out that she can't get rid of it no matter what. No matter what drama she plays, the audience only remembers her as "Little Swallow", which is very difficult. have no choice.

The success of "Returning the Princess" and the failure of "Returning the Princess", ten years have passed, and times have changed. Looking at Chu Xuan's 40% approval rate on the big screen, tsk tsk, the younger generation is also the junior brother Chu Xuan. Man is completely transcended.

On the podium, Chu Xuan said some words of thanks, and He Jiong asked: "So many viewers like you, have you ever thought about it?"

"I thought about it in my dream." Chu Xuan said.

There was laughter at the scene, and He Jiong asked with great interest: "Looking at your energetic and radiant appearance, are good things coming soon?"

"Oh——" the audience upstairs cheered, what a good thing? Of course it's a wedding.

Faced with the attention of people nearby, Liu Yifei covered her face in embarrassment, and she did not expect that He Jiong would mention this.

"It's not decided yet. The road ahead is bumpy and we still need to work hard." Chu Xuan said.

Liu Yifei raised her eyes, is there a bumpy road ahead? What’s the ups and downs? Isn't it just the last step to go to dad's house? With her here, this is the situation of lying flat.

"Come on." He Jiong encouraged Chu Xuan, and then got back to the subject: "So many viewers like you, and of course Liu Yifei is indispensable among them, but in my impression you rarely participate in commercial activities and rarely appear on shows, and you lose a lot of exposure. Why do you think more and more viewers still like you so much after all these years?"

"There are people who are better than us, but the audience hasn't discovered them yet, and we are just enjoying the dividends of an era when the market is biased towards younger people." Chu Xuan said.

He Jiong and many people at the scene applauded. This question was not easy to answer. I didn't expect it to be easily resolved by Chu Xuan.

"Jiang Xin and Huang Xuan both thanked you earlier, saying that you had provided a lot of help to their growth and development. Why did you do this?" He Jiong asked.

"They are my friends. Isn't it normal to help friends?" Chu Xuan said.

Chu Xuan's help to Jiang Xin, Huang Xuan and Zhao Liying was enough to change their lives, but in Chu Xuan's case, it was just a normal word of help for friends. This made the audience and guests present feel Chu Xuan's kindness and warmth, and Chu Xuan's kindness and warmth. Xuan friendly human qualities.

"I heard that you are going to direct and star in a new drama next. Why are you thinking about turning into a director? Or do you think you should pay equal attention to actors and directors?" He Jiong asked.

"Acting is my core profession. Learning to direct can broaden my horizons and knowledge. In short, it is to present better works to everyone." Chu Xuan said.

"Come on, I'm looking forward to your new drama." He Jiong finished the interview and applauded Chu Xuan in farewell with everyone in the audience.

Chu Xuan returned to his seat and handed the trophy to Liu Yifei. The audience upstairs laughed when they saw this scene. It is like this every award ceremony. Chu Xuan will hand the trophy to Liu Yifei. Such a dog-food scene has been criticized by the audience. We are used to it.

Next, the best supporting actor and actress were awarded.

The winner of Best Supporting Actor was Ren Quan, for his masterpiece "Legend of Red Flame".

The explosive ratings of "Legend of Red Flame" and the fact that Mei Changsu's character is better than the protagonist from beginning to end make Ren Quan the winner without any controversy and definitely worthy of the award.

But when He Jiong asked the question, Ren Quan's revelation made the whole audience very interested.

"Actually, this role was given to me by Chu Xuan. He didn't want to play Mei Changsu, so I came to play it." Ren Quan looked at Chu Xuan in the audience: "I regret giving up this role to the best supporting actor. ?"

For the interactive effect, the on-site director also specially asked someone to hand Chu Xuan a microphone.

Chu Xuan took the microphone, picked up the trophy from Liu Yifei's arms, and said, "You won that award. Do you regret losing it?"

The whole audience burst into laughter. The interaction between Chu Xuan and Hu Ge was about mutual praise, while the interaction between Chu Xuan and Ren Quan was about mutual quarrels, which made everyone present feel full of fun.

He Jiong felt very interesting and asked: "Why doesn't Chu Xuan want to play this role?"

Ren Quan said: "Although the character Mei Changsu is very charming, there is no growth line. Based on my understanding of Chu Xuan, he is generally not interested in characters without a complete character arc."

"There is pursuit." Teacher Chen Baoguo praised in the audience.

He had watched "The Legend of Red Flame" and was impressed by the two people.

From the beginning of the war to the final sacrifice of his country, Lin Shu's character grew up along the way.

Mei Changsu's character has not changed from beginning to end, and he has always been a wise man who makes strategic plans.

Judging from the role, Lin Shu is not as good as Mei Changsu.

But from the perspective of character fullness, Mei Changsu is not as outstanding as Lin Shu.

Chu Xuan took the initiative to choose a role with fewer scenes but more fleshed-out characters, which shows that Chu Xuan is a very pursuing person when it comes to acting.

The winner of the Best Supporting Actress is Tao Huimin, for her masterpiece "Legend of Red Flame".

When the answer was announced, Tao Huimin looked incredulous. She had been silent in the entertainment industry for so many years, how could she still have this moment?

"Teacher Tao, congratulations." Yang Rong congratulated him.

Two people co-starred as Princess Xuanji in "Legend of Red Flame", with Yang Rong playing the disguised pro-Prajna and Tao Huimin playing the real Princess Xuanji.

The moment when Prajna revealed herself and transformed into Princess Xuanji, I don’t know how many viewers in front of the TV were stunned and people were amazed.

Although Princess Xuanji doesn't have many roles, she deserves the award for Best Supporting Actress.

"Thank you to the Golden Eagle Festival for giving me such a noble honor, and thank you to the crew of "Legend of Red Flame" for giving me such a good role and giving me the opportunity to meet the audience again..."

Yu Feihong and Yu Li, who were in the same group, applauded. Tao Huimin stunned everyone with her role as Guanyin Bodhisattva in the 1990s and then had no follow-up. Such a beautiful person with such a good figure has no role to film for so many years. I don’t know how many people lamented. A pity.

Now that she has become popular again, the two people in the circle who are also slowly falling silent are happy for her.

"That's great. Teacher Tao will definitely shine in the future. Her Princess Xuanji is really beautiful." Liu Yifei said.

"When we look for actors in the future, we still need to look for these old actors. Their appearance and acting skills are both good." Chu Xuan said.

"Yes." Liu Yifei nodded repeatedly, and then became a little nervous again.

The Best Actor and Actress awards are about to be awarded. Ren Quan's Mei Changsu and Tao Huimin's Princess Xuanji won the Best Actress and Actress award. Can I, Princess Nihuang, successfully win the Best Actress award?

Chu Xuan didn't win the Best Actor, wouldn't she also lose?

"If you didn't win the Best Actress, there is only one reason." Chu Xuan saw Liu Yifei's slightly nervous expression and prepared to calm her down.

"What?" Liu Yifei asked curiously.

"You are going to be re-elected as the Golden Eagle Goddess." Chu Xuan said seriously.

Liu Yifei lowered her head and smiled, then looked at him angrily. How could this guy be re-elected? She also knew that Chu Xuan was trying to comfort her, so she simply calmed down and waited for the result.

Award presenter Chen Baoguo announced that the best actor is Chen Jianbin, the representative work of "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

He defeated Lin Zhiying in "Sheep Star", Zhang Guoli in "Golden Wedding", Chu Xuan in "Legend of Red Flame", and Sun Honglei in "Latent".

Chen Jianbin won the Best Actor in Magnolia and the Best Actor in the Feitian TV Festival, but he did not win the Best Actor in the Golden Eagle Festival. The most promising award at the Golden Eagle Festival two years ago went to "The Condor" Chu Xuan intercepted Hu. This time Chu Xuan won the most popular award and was eliminated first. Now no one would stand in his way!

Chen Jianbin was very emotional. After saying a round of thanks, he finally raised the trophy and said, "It's not easy. When you get old, you still have to act like an emperor when you win awards."

Old people can't compete with young people, nor can they compete with the market's preference for young people.

Chen Daoming, Chen Baoguo, Zhang Guoli, and Tie Lin have all played emperors, and they have all won the Golden Eagle Festival award for this performance. This time it is his turn.

This short sentence reveals the interpretation of today's entertainment market and the helplessness of the veteran actor.

This sentence is a bit classic, and even the seniors and official leaders laughed along with the audience.

"Teacher Chen is great. There are many layers of meaning in one sentence." Liu Yifei applauded and experienced the artist's art of ironic language.

Chu Xuan nodded and applauded Teacher Chen Jianbin.

Chen Jianbin walked off the stage, and the process came to the presentation of the Best Actress Award.

For the Best Actress Award, the nominees are: Liu Yifei, "Legend of Red Flame"; Li Xiaolu, "It's All Angels' fault"; Gao Yuanyuan, "The Qin Empire"; Mei Ting, "Years"; Yao Chen, "Latent".

Just looking at the names, the competition is a bit fierce, but after watching the drama, most people think that the winner is Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei is the only major heroine in the five works of the five people. Unlike Chu Xuan, the male protagonist, who has few scenes, Liu Yifei's scenes can be said to be unrivaled in the drama, and her triple identity switching from marshal to princess to fiancée will The character's personality is well developed.

If we only judge individual acting skills, perhaps Liu Yifei is not as good as Mei Ting and Yao Chen.

But looking at the combination with the drama, Liu Yifei's overall performance is definitely the most eye-catching.

This is also Liu Yifei's first time starring in a drama with a female protagonist, and the ratings have broken records. She should have missed out on this award.

The guest presenting the award for Best Actress was Tao Hong. She was just heard to say: "Congratulations to Liu Yifei."

The couple held hands, and Chu Xuanzhi felt Liu Yifei's slightly tense hands loosen, which obviously eased the tension.

Among the four people accompanying her, Gao Yuanyuan was nothing. She had never won a big prize since her debut, and her mentality had long since calmed down. The only thing she envied was that Liu Yifei had Chu Xuan.

Regarding this, Li Xiaolu was very jealous, but there was nothing she could do about jealousy. First, there was no channel to contact Chu Xuan, and second, the couple had entered the marriage stage, which made it difficult to handle.

Yao Chen was just slightly disappointed. Compared with the performance of Huo and Liu Yifei in "Legend of Red Flame", she had expected this result before coming to the Golden Eagle Festival.

Mei Ting is calm and relaxed. She never competes or grabs, and lives her life like a salted fish. If she wins a prize, it will be an unexpected joy. If she does not win, her life will remain the same, no different.

"Congratulations." Chu Xuan stood up and hugged Liu Yifei.

"Last time you won the Best Actor, this time I also won the Best Actress. I can't lose to you." Liu Yifei's only concern about the award is that Chu Xuan has won the best award at a major TV festival. The best male lead but not the best female lead, this time I finally got my wish.

Seeing the beautiful figure of Liu Yifei walking onto the stage, Chu Xuan sat down with a smile. Did he really regard his fiancé as a "rival"? Why do you want to compare with him?

What should I do if I have such a strong fiancée? Let’s continue to encourage each other and keep working hard.
