Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 825 Awards Ceremony (Part )

Liu Yi, who walked down from the stage, never expected that he, who had just taken the time to fly here this afternoon and had originally rushed here to run as a runner-up, would actually win a big prize.

If it weren't for Bai Yulan, he wouldn't have come in person. He could have sent anyone from the screenwriter team of "The Legend of Red Flame" as a representative. There are so many things to do in the company, and wasting some time will delay many things.

But unexpectedly, this trip was not in vain, and he actually got the award, which was completely beyond his expectations.

Such an award is very valuable for a screenwriter, and can also enhance the screenwriter's status and industry qualifications.

Apart from anything else, he can talk about his salary at the literary company when he returns. If Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, who were applauded, knew his interesting mentality, who knows what kind of amusing and crying expressions the couple would have.

"Legend of Red Flame" is a fictional historical theme, and its story structure is centered on a female protagonist. Compared to other works with group portrait elements, the difficulty of its creation is relatively small.

After learning about the shortlist a few days ago, he originally thought that the screenwriter award had nothing to do with "The Legend of Red Flame", but it turned out that surprises often come suddenly.

"Congratulations, I'll treat you to a meal." Concubine Liu Yi saw Liu Yi coming back and clapped her hands and joked as she passed by.

"Eat whatever you want." Liu Yi couldn't help laughing. He high-fived Chu Xuan and Kong Sheng and returned to his seat.

Judging from the correlation between the Best Story Award and the Best Screenplay Award, winning the former means you have the ability to win the latter.

In many second-tier and lower awards, these two awards are often given simultaneously to the same play or screenwriter under the same packaging.

Perhaps it is because the other awards are not as professional as the Magnolia Award, and the specific differences between the two awards are unclear. Seeing that the Magnolia Award has set up these two awards, they imitate it but do not understand its deep meaning.

The plot and story are an integral part of script writing, but the screenwriter's creative ability is not limited to the plot and story.

Creative thinking, creative ideas and creative level are often reflected in the creative process rather than the script.

But no one knows the creative process except the creative team, so how can the organizing committee judge it?

"The winner of the 15th Magnolia Award for Best Screenwriter is... "Lost", screenwriter Jiang Wei, congratulations." The award presenter is a well-known screenwriter teacher in the industry, who announced the winner of the Best Screenwriter award.

Liu Yi smiled. It turned out to be here.

He said that Jiang Wei would definitely win a screenwriting award, so he had no hope before coming here, and was very surprised when he won the award.

He is very sure about this. If he were a member of the organizing committee, he would also give the screenwriter award to Jiang Wei. He would be fine with giving both awards to Jiang Wei.

There is nothing else to say. "The Disguiser" is really awesome in terms of adaptation and creation. These screenwriters are also very convinced and acknowledge Jiang Wei's excellence.

"Lost" has an original work of the same name, that is, there is an original novel.

Normal people would not think anything of this, because many film and television dramas are adapted from novels, and many people normally think that such a novel has at least 100,000 words and at most several hundred thousand words. This is the common understanding of practitioners in the screenwriting industry.

But what about "Insidious"? The original novel has less than 1 words!

Adapting the original novel of 1 words into a film and television script of 120 million words, with the content expanded 120 times, the rhythm is not lost at all, the logic is also tight, the plot is constantly reversed, and a large number of branch lines are added without the main line deviating. This is truly amazing, and few people in the industry can do it.

If there is no brain with super logical thinking to coordinate, the adapted plot will be wrong in every way, the main line will drift further and further away, and eventually become a bad script.

But screenwriter Jiang Wei did it. Not only did he coordinate the script well, he also made the play a huge hit.

This year's Magnolia Award for Best Screenwriter went to Jiang Wei, which was absolutely well-deserved.

Liu Yi touched his chin and thought, if he could bring Jiang Wei under the literary company, then his Brilliant Times would not be one of the four golden screenwriters, but one of the top five. This would mean there would be one more powerful player in the screenwriting industry and script creation. He began to have some ideas in his mind.

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei didn't know what Liu Yi was thinking. Even if they knew, they would still strongly support him. If they could have one more like-minded and capable person join their career, it would naturally be a good thing that would be icing on the cake.

Continuing to watch the ceremony, there was a guest performance.

Taiwan's singer Peng Jiahui sang a song called "It's a pity we met too late", which was full of emotion and pleasant to the ears. Her powerful and high-pitched voice was worthy of the name of a person with iron lungs. Even Zhang Shaohan could only be called a little iron lung, which showed his excellent singing skills.

After the performance, several awards were handed out, and there was another guest performance as a transition process.

Hong Kong singer Wong Koon-chung sang "Glorious Years" from his own beyong band. Many people said that Wong Koon-chung was not as good as Ka Kui, but such comparison is purely boring. They are good brothers so why should they compare with each other? Today, Wong Koon-chung is the lead singer of beyong, one to continue the music, the other to give the audience an unforgettable feeling.

"No wonder Sister Zhu Ying is here too, it turns out my husband is here to perform." Liu Yifei felt amused and whispered to Chu Xuan while covering her mouth.

Chu Xuan nodded slightly. After entering the venue, he saw Zhu Ying sitting in the audience. The couple waved and greeted her from afar. He thought Zhu Ying was brought here to play by her best friend Cai Shaofen, but now it seems that it was because her husband was going to perform at the Magnolia Awards.

I met Zhu Ying and Huang Guanzhong at Cai Shaofen’s wedding, and we haven’t seen each other for a year or two. After the ceremony, we can meet up and have some fun together.

There were performances by singers from Taiwan and songs from Hong Kong expressing their feelings. The main theme of this year's Magnolia Awards was "One Family Across Taiwan, Hong Kong and Taiwan". It was particularly meaningful at the moment of the 60th anniversary of the founding of the motherland. It was truly a full-scale event.

When the award ceremony started again, the atmosphere became even more heated, simply because the next award was more valued by most actors and audiences.

"The winner of the 15th Magnolia Award for Most Promising Actor is..."

The Most Potential Award is similar to the Golden Eagle Awards' Newcomer Award, but only the award categories are the same; the scope covered is very different.

The Golden Eagle Award for Newcomers is only for newcomers, that is, selected from new actors who have only starred in one drama.

The scope of the Magnolia Potential Award is wider. No matter how many years a young actor has debuted, he or she can be nominated.

Chu Xuan saw his name on the shortlist, as well as Zu Feng, the supporting actor in "The Disguiser", Li Xuedong, the supporting actor in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and five other people in total. The common feature of the shortlist is that they are all under 30 years old. Could this be the standard for the Magnolia Potential Award?

Chu Xuan shook his head. He didn't know the specific rules, but he knew very well that there was no chance that he would win the bid.

Anyway, he is an actor who has starred in many popular dramas, and his potential has been proven through his performance. If you insist that he still has potential, it is reasonable to give him this award, but I don't think that will be the case.

"Zu Feng, congratulations." The award presenter Dong Yong announced the winner, who was Zu Feng, the supporting actor in "The Disguiser".

"I knew it couldn't be you." Liu Yifei clapped her hands and said softly with a faint smile.

She and Chu Xuan had the same idea. They had both debuted for six years and had many good works. How could such an award similar to the newcomer award fall to Chu Xuan? It would be almost impossible unless Chu Xuan had never been popular.

However, considering Chu Xuan's current career status, it would be embarrassing to give this award to him. I thought the Magnolia official would not do this. Now it seems that she guessed right.

With this idea in mind, looking at the next Most Promising Actress Award, even though she is on the shortlist, it is unlikely to be her.

"It can't be me." Liu Yifei muttered softly.

As a couple, Chu Xuan also understood her psychology.

But it was just like this that made Chu Xuan feel a little emotional, and he said with amusement: "It makes you look so senior and experienced."

Liu Yifei pursed her lips and lowered her eyebrows, glanced at him with a hint of annoyance, then returned to normal with helplessness.

Look at the shortlist, Jiang Xin from "The Legend of Zhen Huan", Li Yixiao from "Comrades: Almost a Love Story", Wang Yuanke from "Marvin's War", and Yuan Fei from "My Captain, My Regiment".

Although she only knew one Jiang Xin, she knew very clearly that in terms of age, the "Liu Yifei from "The Legend of Red Flame"" was the youngest.

At the age of 21, he said with a very senior attitude: "This award cannot be mine."

When I think about it this way, something seems to be wrong.

"I'm not old, why do I have this mentality?" Liu Yifei murmured in her heart: "Who made me debut so early? This is also the fact."

Finally, Liu Yifei thought of a killer idea: "They are still single, but I am married."

After changing her mind to this point, it seemed that it would be no problem for her to express her high qualifications as a married person, and her mentality was balanced.

"Jiang Xin, congratulations." The award presenter Yin Tao announced the winner of the Most Promising Actress Award, Jiang Xin from "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

"It's really Xinxin. I guessed it right." Liu Yifei was very happy and felt glad that her good sister Jiang Xin won the award again for her role as Hua Fei.

Jiang Xin stepped onto the stage with an excited look on her face.

She once became a little famous for her role as Mu Wanqing in "Tian Long Ba Bu", but then failed. Later, she became a little famous again for her role as Jin Ping'er in "Zhu Xian". However, this time, with the support of Brilliant Times, her popularity did not decline, and she took advantage of the opportunity to become famous for her role as Concubine Hua in "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

Therefore, winning the Most Popular Actress Award at the Golden Eagle Awards last year and the Most Promising Actress Award at the Magnolia Awards this year are both great honors and also herald a booming career.

Chu Xuan was also happy, and he applauded along with Liu Yifei and the people at the scene.

Compared with the role performances of the other nominees, except Liu Yifei, it was no suspense that Jiang Xin won the award, and he was not surprised.

In terms of acting skills alone, which actress of the same age can compare to Jiang Xin?

He had discussed this topic with Liu Yifei, and the answer was no.

Maybe it's because their knowledge is limited. Anyway, among the actresses of the same age they know, Jiang Xin's acting skills are the best.

Just as Zheng Xiaolong, the director of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" said, Concubine Hua is just a supporting role. If the two actresses acting with her were not Sun Li and Cai Shaofen, and if younger actresses were found, then the supporting role of Concubine Hua could have been played by Jiang Xin as the heroine.

It's a very ordinary sentence, but it is a very high evaluation of Jiang Xin.

Jiang Xin's strength among the younger generation is evident in her acting ability and understanding of characters.

"Except for being talkative, everything else is good." Chu Xuan thought of Jiang Xin's "dare to say anything" mouth and gave this evaluation of Jiang Xin.

Coming to the next award ceremony, the Most Popular Actor Award was presented.

"It could be you." Liu Yifei showed some anticipation and turned her head to whisper to Chu Xuan.

She and Chu Xuan had no hope of winning the Best Actor and Actress awards. Under the professionalism and authority of the Magnolia Awards, the requirements for acting skills were too high, and the nominees were all seniors and artists. The competition was too fierce, and their chances of winning were very small.

Taking a step back and focusing on the Popularity Award, she felt that she and Chu Xuan might have a chance at the Popularity Award, influenced by the fact that they had participated in the Golden Eagle Awards and other awards, both large and small, many times, and most of the awards were given out based on their popularity.

However, this is the Magnolia Award, and the award rules are different from those in the market, so she actually didn't have much confidence.

Chu Xuan did not comment. He raised the corner of his mouth in response and then acted as normal, waiting for the answer to be revealed.

"The winner of the 15th Magnolia Award for Most Popular Actor is... Yu Hewei. Congratulations."

Liu Yifei was stunned for a moment. She actually guessed wrong. It was not Chu Xuan, which surprised her a little.

The friends and fellow actors nearby were also a little stunned. They focused their eyes on Chu Xuan for a while and forgot to applaud with their raised hands.

This is really unexpected. Over the years, if there is any award related to popularity, as long as Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are there, at least one of them will win the award.

These two people are really popular, and the actors themselves are used to it.

But this time it's a little different, the most popular person is not Chu Xuan? Chu Xuan's career has not declined in the past year. On the contrary, due to the suspected marriage with Liu Yifei and the new drama he filmed as a director for the first time, his popularity has remained high, and his peers are still far behind.

Moreover, even if Chu Xuan did not win the award, Duan Yihong from "My Captain, My Regiment" is now more popular on the Internet than Yu Hewei from "Greed and Dreams", so how could it not be Duan Yihong who won the award?

The result of this award is interesting. The Magnolia Award is worthy of being the Magnolia Award. Popularity is not really taken into consideration by the organizing committee.

Well, since popularity is not taken into consideration, why is the award still called the Most Popular Award?

Many actors don’t understand, but Chu Xuan understands a little bit.

For the Magnolia Popularity Award, the character performance and popularity of the nominated plays are taken into consideration as a combined criterion.

Moreover, the popularity vote is different from the Golden Eagle Award. The Golden Eagle Award only looks at the audience votes, and the audience votes offline and online to ultimately form the voting results.

As for the Magnolia Awards, its votes come not only from the audience, but also from students, teachers, and school leaders from major art schools in China. Together with the audience, there is a four-fold voting structure.

If it was just audience voting, then we could guess who would win just by looking at the situation online, and there would be no suspense.

But if we add professional students, more professional teachers, and school leaders, and so many people participate in the voting, then the variables will be huge and it will be impossible to predict at all.

For this award, if we only compare acting skills, then Yu Hewei from "Glittering Life", Duan Yihong from "My Regiment", Lin Yongjian from "Wang Gui and Anna", Feng Enhe from "The Disguiser", and him from "The Legend of Red Flame", they can all be talked about and ranked first, second, third, fourth, and fifth.

But half of the popularity considerations are variables, and that is based on luck, connections, and of course, the audience's perception of the strength demonstrated in the play.

Obviously, Yu Hewei's performance in "Glimpses of Life" is more popular among professional students, teachers and school seniors, and certainly accounts for most of the voting data.

In the area where the crew of "Glamour and Desire" was located, Yu Hewei looked confused and did not react.

After the actors near him applauded and voices of "Congratulations" were heard from everywhere, he came to his senses. Despite the congratulations from his fellow crew members, he still felt confused as he walked onto the stage.

He bowed a little stiffly to receive the award, turned to the microphone in a daze, and held up the trophy in confusion: "Thank you..."

Yu Hewei took back the words he had just said, still worriedly asking Chen Rong, "Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

“Hahahaha——” The host Chen Rong was stunned, but the audience burst into laughter, echoing throughout the exhibition hall.

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were equally amused. Teacher Yu Hewei's silly look was really cute and funny.

"Do you want me to show you the script?" Chen Rong said jokingly, feeling both amused and helpless.

"No, no, no." Yu Hewei said repeatedly. Now he really believed that he had won the award, and it was the Most Popular Award.

He swallowed, calmed himself down, and said, "To be honest, I really didn't expect..."

He raised the trophy and shook it: "This award is actually for me."

He took back the trophy and said, "Before I came here, I had already made up my mind to be a runner-up. Looking at the list of nominees, everyone is better than me."

Yu Hewei sorted out his thoughts and began his speech.

"Teacher Duan Yihong, your superb performance in 'My Troupe' made my blood boil." Hearing his words, Duan Yihong in the audience smiled slightly.

"Teacher Sun Honglei, your demeanor in 'The Disguiser' made me admire and worship you." As soon as these words were spoken, Sun Honglei in the audience laughed so hard that his eyes became slits.

"Teacher Chen Jianbing, the emperor's demeanor in 'The Legend of Zhen Huan' gave me a new perspective on the word 'emperor', as well as a goal to learn and catch up with." After he finished speaking, Chen Jianbing in the audience grinned, showing a good mood.

“And Teacher Chu Xuan, I also admire his bravery and majestic momentum in "Legend of Red Flame." After hearing this, Chu Xuan still felt embarrassed to call him teacher, and Liu Yifei gave him a teasing look.

Yu Hewei finally said: "It is said that if you are lucky enough, you can get a sword that is abandoned by the gods. I came to Shenghai just to drink and make friends, but I didn't expect that the dark horse would be me."

He held up the trophy: "So cool!"

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei once again burst into laughter with the whole audience. Teacher Yu Hewei is really funny.

The sword abandoned by the gods is here, and you can get it if you are lucky... It was you gods who looked down on this prize, so I got it by luck.

On the surface, it sounds like picking up leftovers, but Yu Hewei used a line of poetry to express it, which shows his literary character and cultural heritage. The small joke did not make him lose face, and also revealed the deep meaning that even if he had luck, it was still based on his strength.

Such a humorous answer not only made Chu Xuan and other people who had not won the competition just laugh it off, but also made the audience in front of the TV have a better impression of He Wei.

"Who is this? It's so funny. I'm laughing to death!"

"As expected of Yu Hewei, a man who is as funny as Huang Bo!"

"This Yu Hewei is so funny and seems very cultured. I like him."

"..."

Yu Hewei walked off the stage happily, and the applause from the audience gradually died down. One can only say that Yu Hewei's emotional intelligence is really amazing. He single-handedly created a warm atmosphere in the audience. No one else can do that.

Influenced by this, Chu Xuan, who did not win the award, also calmed down.

Liu Yifei was also infected by the cheerful atmosphere. Even when she heard that the winner of the Most Popular Actress Award was Yan Ni, she only felt a little regretful and followed everyone in applauding and congratulating Teacher Yan Ni.

Next was another halftime performance, with singer Liao Changyong singing "A Thousand Lights", also a song about the motherland.

The deep and beautiful voice shocked people and also dispelled the joy brought by He Wei.

The extra-long and steady breath of the mid-high notes makes people feel comfortable and intoxicated.

Looking back, the solemn and serious atmosphere emerged again, and the bigger prize also attracted everyone's attention.

"The winner of the 15th Magnolia Award for Best Supporting Actor is Feng Enhe from "Insidious". Congratulations."

"The winner of the 15th Magnolia Award for Best Supporting Actress is Cai Shaofen from "The Legend of Zhen Huan". Congratulations."

Two supporting actor awards were presented consecutively, one was won by the crew of "The Disguiser" and the other was won by the crew of "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

Cai Shaofen was extremely excited. It was a pity that she did not win an award at the Golden Eagle Awards, but she made up for it later by winning many small awards in mainland China and in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

But Hong Kong and Taiwan are her home markets, and she has already won the Grand Slam in the local market. Giving her more awards will not mean much. What she hopes more is to win big prizes in the mainland. Then her career in the mainland may develop further, and she can often visit good friends such as Chu Xuan, Xixi, Deng Chao, Sun Li, Wu Jin, and Xie Nan.

She was flattered and delighted to see that she was the winner of the Best Supporting Actress Award. This was her first major award in the mainland, and it was won at the Magnolia Awards, the most authoritative television art venue in the mainland. She felt really honored and privileged.

Before going on stage, she accidentally made eye contact with Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. Facing the congratulations from the couple, she blew them a kiss gracefully, still so pure, interesting, generous and fun.

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei each smiled as they watched Cai Shaofen happily go up to give her speech and then happily walk off the stage with the award. What followed was the most important award process for an actor.

"The winner of the 15th Magnolia Award for Best Actor is..."

For Chu Xuan, this is the last award he has been nominated for in this year's Magnolia Awards, and also the biggest award.

I said I had no hope, but now that the moment had come, it would be a lie to say I had no idea of ​​winning the prize.

However, the mentality of being prepared to run as a runner-up in advance worked, and at this moment, he only had a little expectation in his heart.

In the crew of "Glimpses of Life", Yu Hewei has completely fallen by the wayside. Compared with the shortlisted Sun Honglei, Duan Yihong, Lin Yongjian and Chu Xuan, he is the worst among them, neither in terms of popularity nor resources. He has never won any commercial awards before.

Although popularity and resources cannot determine the performance of an actor in a drama, his long-standing career slump has made him accustomed to not having any hope for awards. Like Zhang Songwen, he is also a buried actor. The drama he filmed, "Glimpses of Glamour", is also a low-budget drama with low ratings and is not ranked high in the same time period.

He came to the Magnolia Awards this time just like Chu Xuan, aiming to be the runner-up. Unexpectedly, good news fell from the sky, giving him a big surprise. He won the Most Popular Award. Now he is still immersed in excitement and doesn't care about the Best Actor award.

"Whoever wants to take it can take it. It's not my turn anyway." Yu Hewei is a clear-headed person.

On the set of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", Chen Jianbing looked calm and comfortable. He had already won the Magnolia Actor Award a long time ago. After winning the Best Actor award at the Golden Eagle Awards last year, he has already won the grand slam in domestic awards. Now facing the competition for the big prize again, he is very relaxed.

Of course, it would be a good thing if we could win another award.

It’s just that since he already has the honor of a Grand Slam award, he is not very keen on pursuing this award. Like Chu Xuan, he only has slight expectations.

At the crew of "My Troupe", Duan Yihong looked calm but was anxious inside.

Logically speaking, he has already won the title of Best Actor, and now he is entering the television industry to compete for the title of Best TV Actor. His mentality should not be like this.

However, his own crew has not won anything at the Magnolia Awards so far. As the male lead, he is of course a little conflicted and anxious about shouldering the honor of the crew.

If he can win the Best Actor award, even if he doesn’t win the other awards, it will be worth it for "My Group" to have achieved such good results in the market.

If it fails, then "My Group" might get zero points at the Magnolia Awards, which would be somewhat embarrassing.

"My Group" has good ratings, and his acting skills are not bad either, so he has high expectations for this award.

Sun Honglei, who is also in the crew of "The Disguiser", is also looking forward to it. He only lost to Chen Jianbing at the Golden Eagle Awards together with Chu Xuan because of "The Disguiser", but he swept all other major awards, including the first-tier Feitian Award, the second-tier Huading Award and the National Drama Festival, and he won the Best Actor award.

If he had won the Best Actor award at the Golden Eagle Awards last year and the Magnolia Awards today, he would have achieved the Grand Slam just like Chen Jianbing, and it was thanks to the drama "The Disguiser", which is truly a miracle.

But the miracle did not happen. We lost at the Golden Eagle Awards last year, and it is still unknown whether we can win the Magnolia Award today. But if we can win the Magnolia Award today, the only award we will need to achieve our goal in future awards is the Golden Eagle Award, which is also a good thing.

Therefore, he, like Duan Yihong, was looking forward to this award.

"It would be great if Chu Xuan could win the award..." Liu Yifei glanced at Chu Xuan quietly and prayed silently in her heart.

Seeing Chu Xuan's nonchalant look, she, as his wife, knew very well that Chu Xuan must have expectations in his heart.

Although all his competitors are very strong and Chu Xuan is the youngest actor of his generation, nothing is absolute. What if there is a surprise?

Unfortunately, the surprise did not come.

"Sun Honglei, congratulations." The award presenter was Zhang Guoli, who announced that the best actor award was Sun Honglei.

Chu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, letting go of his regrets and completely relaxing.

Once the award was announced, there was nothing more for him to do afterwards. He was deemed to be a runner-up, and he felt completely relaxed.

Concubine Liu Yi looked at him and gave him a comforting look.

Chu Xuan shook his head, indicating that it was okay and it didn't matter.

I had a hunch before coming here. He didn't even win the Best Actor award at the Golden Eagle Awards for his role as Lin Shu in "Red Flame", so he would definitely not win one at the Magnolia Awards.

It’s not that his acting skills are worse than Sun Honglei’s, it’s just that Lin Shu in “Red Flame” is slightly worse than Yu Zecheng in “The Disguiser”.

The specific manifestation of this is that he had too few parts as Lin Shu, and therefore lost the chance to win a big award at last year's Golden Eagle Awards.

The amount of roles cannot determine whether an actor's performance is good or bad, but there is one fact that cannot be denied: the more roles an actor has, the more highlights he can capture.

Among a group of actors with similar acting skills and script quality, the actor with more roles will naturally have more highlights.

His Lin Shu definitely has highlights, otherwise he would not have been shortlisted, but the small number of roles means there are not many highlights, and he cannot compare to the performance of the real male lead in dramas of the same quality.

The reason why we actively chose Lin Shu, who has fewer roles, is, firstly, to better present the overall quality of the drama, and secondly, to let Liu Yifei play a drama with a strong heroine, giving her more room to play roles and allowing her to show her plasticity more freely.

This may be the reason why he did not win the award, and it may also be the reason why he lost both the Golden Eagle and Magnolia Awards. But this was his own decision and there is nothing much to say.

"The winner of the 15th Magnolia Award for Best Actress is..."

On the set of "Glamour and Desire", Luo Haiqiong had a calm expression, but the action of rubbing her thigh with her fingers exposed her nervousness. She knew that she was an unknown drama actor and seemed a bit out of place in the TV circle.

The actual performance of the drama they starred in was not that good. If it was for any other award, it might not even be nominated. It’s just that the Magnolia Awards don’t look at these things and nominate based solely on their own strength, giving them this opportunity.

But the nominees and the plays were all very strong, so she didn't hold out much hope.

But, if Yu Hewei can win the grand prize, why can't she?
This also made her want to compete.

On the set of "The North Wind Blows", Yan Ni was as lazy as ever, as if she hadn't woken up yet and looked dazed. It was impossible to guess whether she was here to make a cameo appearance or to win a big award, nor could it be seen what she thought about the Best Actress award.

Anyway, she was in a state between half asleep and half awake, and felt the same as Yu Hewei's mentality just now. Whoever wants to take the award can take it, just don't bother me.

If you say this state is cute, it is very soft and comfortable. If you say it is relaxed and comfortable, there is a feeling of being intoxicated and ignoring everything.

In short, she is so cute that one would want to pick her up, but she is so cute that one would want to pick her up and throw her to death.

On the set of "Shanghai King", Yuan Li did not look sleepy like Yan Ni, nor did she have the image of an idol like Luo Haiqiong who appeared calm on the outside but was nervous on the inside. Her anticipation was written all over her face, and her desire for the Best Actress award was beyond words.

The main reason is that the Magnolia Award is too valuable, and the competitors are stronger than each other, including the super popular superstar Liu Yifei, the high-level drama actor Luo Haiqiong, the absolutely powerful Yan Ni, and the recognized great artist Song Dandan.

Regardless of whether the competition is fierce or not, just look at these opponents. If you can win the crown among them, it will be equivalent to adding another award-winning value to the Magnolia Award, which is already highly authoritative and valuable.

She had some knowledge of previous Magnolia Awards and believed that this year's award was definitely the most competitive and the most valuable in history.

If you can win from it, you will benefit greatly.

On the set of "Marvin's War", Song Dan's hope of winning the award was also evident in her words, but her expression seemed more pure.

She doesn't care about any endless benefits. What she cares about is whether the sketch actors can really break through and win the grand prize from the most authoritative Magnolia Award in the country.

This is what she cares about most.

Although the Magnolia Awards recognized her as a nominee for the grand prize, which was already a breakthrough in the circle, but compared to successfully winning the award, of course, being able to win the award is the most perfect.

She stared at the script in the hands of the award presenter Cheng Pei-pei with sharp eyes, waiting for the answer to be revealed.

"Aren't you nervous at all?" Chu Xuan looked at Liu Yifei and whispered with a smile.

In previous awards, when her nominated awards were about to be announced, Liu Yifei would sit upright or sit normally, which showed that she had expectations and desires in her heart.

But looking at Liu Yifei now, she was leaning on the back of the chair, looking like a lazy fish, as if the award had nothing to do with her at all. Chu Xuan found this interesting.

After hearing what Chu Xuan said, Liu Yifei also realized that her sitting posture was too leisurely and a bit disrespectful to Bai Yulan, so she sat up straight, crossed her legs, and raised her hand to smooth her hair.

She whispered: "Why are you so nervous? It can't be me. I'm just guessing Mr. Song Dandan."

Chu Xuan nodded, which was the same as he guessed.

Although Song Dandan's artistic attainments are unquestionable, the gap between the sketch circle and the television circle has existed for a long time. Now that Song Dandan has been shortlisted for the Magnolia Award, it seems that this award will belong to Song Dandan.

After all, with Song Dandan's acting ability and understanding of the characters, even if he hasn't seen the TV series she was nominated for, it is very likely that her acting skills are off the charts.

He forgot the name of the Spring Festival Gala work he performed with Zhao Benshan a few years ago, but "I am the Black Soil, I am the White Cloud" was truly a classic. He still remembers the images and facial expressions of both Song Dandan and Zhao Benshan in his mind, and it is truly unforgettable.

Such acting skills cannot be described as superb, but can be said to be superb.

If we really compare acting skills, it’s not that he doesn’t want a good wife, it’s just that his own wife really can’t compare to him.

"Congratulations, Liu Yifei."

Luo Haiqiong raised her eyebrows, her eyes full of regret.

Yuan Li opened her mouth, somewhat surprised and astonished.

Yan Ni woke up a little from her half-asleep state, turned her head and looked at Liu Yifei who was not far away. She blinked and murmured a few times: "Not bad, not bad, you fucked Sister Dandan, you are quite good at it."

Song Dandan sighed, said "Ah", and shook her head with a wry smile. This result was both expected and unexpected. What was expected was that she might not win the award given the fierce competition, but what was unexpected was that the award was won by the youngest junior.

Since Bai Yulan made such a choice, there must be professional reasons for it, and she didn't think too much about it.

Liu Yifei was sitting just to the east of her. She turned her head and saw that Liu Yifei looked guilty and could not bear it. She raised two thumbs up and encouraged and congratulated Liu Yifei as an elder.

Chu Xuan was stunned for a long time. Liu Yifei? Did his wife win the Magnolia Award for Best Actress?
He woke up, clapped his hands together and smiled.

Just like everything has its own consequences, he gave up the normal role of the male lead to play Lin Shu in order to give Liu Yifei more roles.

More roles mean more possibilities and more highlights.

So what if he is a runner-up this time, or missed out on the Best Actor award at the Golden Eagle Awards last year? Our wife won the Magnolia Award, that’s enough!
Compared to the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actress, this year's Magnolia Award for Best Actress is definitely a more impressive honor!
Standing on the shoulders of three talented artists in the Mesozoic era, Yan Ni, Luo Haiqiong and Yuan Li, and surpassing the great artist predecessor Song Dandan, my wife is only 21 years old...

He was so excited that he shouted in his heart: "My wife is awesome!!"
