Chapter 790 Beginning
On August 7, the Magnolia Award Ceremony of the 26th Shanghai TV Festival was held at the East TV Theater in the PD District.
At around 6 p.m., Gu Wei took a car and arrived outside the venue.
Compared with previous years, this year's Magnolia Awards were much smaller in scale. Not to mention the cancellation of the most watched red carpet event, the number of guests present was not large.
However, there are still many media, especially online media.
Migu Video, Kuaishou, Douyin, Youku, Tengxun Video, etc. It is easy to distinguish the media personnel from the logos on the microphones and shooting equipment.
In addition to being broadcast on Dragon TV, this Magnolia Awards Ceremony will also be broadcast live on various online platforms.
After entering the venue, Gu Wei met with the rest of the crew of [Celebrating More Than Years].
"Isn't Teacher Daoming here?" he asked Director Sun Hao after saying hello to everyone.
“I contacted him and Mr. Chen said that he had other matters in Beijing, so he couldn’t come over.”
Gu Wei nodded, not too surprised.
I was chatting with Ni Ni last month, and he told him that "Golden Years" has been completed.
Chen Daofeng lives in Beijing and will definitely go back after filming here.
Based on the other party’s status, the Magnolia Award for Best Supporting Actor doesn’t seem to be that important, so it’s normal that he didn’t attend.
In the lounge backstage of the theater, celebrities from all walks of life arrived one after another. Some directors and celebrities who were familiar with Gu Wei saw him here and stepped forward to say hello.
"Gu Wei~"
"Sister Li, long time no see.
Brother Chao is not with you?"
Sun Li is wearing a white silk dress, With neat short hair, he looks very capable.
“What is he here for? He has no works shortlisted.
Congratulations on being nominated for Best Actor again. [Qing Yu Nian] is so popular, the probability of winning the award this time is not small."
"Haha, I can lend you some good words.
Sister Li was also nominated for Best Actress. If she wins the award all at once, she will be the winner of Magnolia TV Series three times. She is the only one in China, right? ”
Sun Li was nominated for the Best Actress in Magnolia this year for her hit movie "An Jia" at the beginning of the year.
She has won the Magnolia TV Queen twice before, namely [ "The Story of Hot Mom" and "The Story of Mi Yue" are popular candidates for this year's TV show
"I think so, but it depends on whether the teachers on the jury will give her a chance."
Sun Li had a smile on her face, obviously looking forward to tonight's award.
It’s almost time for the ceremony to start, and all the guests have entered and taken their seats.
Gu Wei and a group of people from the [Celebrating More Than Years] crew sat at the front left of the venue.
Beside him was the crew of [Chang'an Twelve Hours]. When Lei Jiayin saw Gu Wei coming over, he quickly stood up and said hello.
"I watched [The Twelve Hours of Chang'an], and it was really good."
Gu Wei praised with a smile.
"What an award, Brother Wei. Compared with [Qing Yu Nian], the popularity and playback performance are much lower." Lei Jiayin smiled naively and said modestly.
Lei Jiayin is from Ning Hao's circle, but her relationship with Gu Wei is pretty good.
The two met as early as 8 years ago. Lei Jiayin played the role of "Brother Bei", the boss of a trio of robbers, in "Tang Detective 1" filmed by Gu Wei.
At that time, he was still an unknown little actor.
The two later collaborated on "Xiu Chun Knife 2" and "The Wandering Earth". Although Lei Jiayin played supporting roles, his fame and status have been rising little by little.
Over the years, Lei Jiayin has found a track that suits him very well in the film and television industry - the loser track.
Most of the characters he plays are of a cowardly and passive character, but they are very popular with the audience. He is very comfortable in this industry.
The two chatted for a few words, and the ceremony soon began.
Today's Magnolia Awards Ceremony was very straightforward. There was no performance and the awards started right away.
The first is the slightly less attention-grabbing awards such as Best Animation, Best Documentary, and Best TV Variety Show.
After half the time, the awards that everyone cares about most, such as Best Supporting Actor and Actor, Best Actor and Actor, etc., began to be awarded.
The Best Supporting Actress was awarded to Tao Hong from [Little Joy], and the Best Supporting Actor was awarded to Tian Yu from the crew of [Qing Yu Nian].
After hearing the winning host announce that he was the winner, Tian Yu stood up excitedly and hugged several people from the crew around him.
Gu Wei stood up and hugged him with a smile: "Congratulations~"
"Thank you~"
After that, he walked all the way to the stage.
Tian Yu is a Chinese opera major, but because of his unattractive appearance, he could only play supporting roles in various film and television dramas for many years, and he has never become popular.
The person who impressed everyone the most in the early days was Tang Wei’s ex-boyfriend.
It wasn't until he played "Teacher Wang" in "Charlotte" that he left some impression on the audience.
The popularity of "Qing Yu Nian" has made his "Wang Qinian" deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but this is also because of Tian Yu's skillful acting skills. If someone else plays "Wang Qinian", there is a high probability that he will not be as likable as him. It can be regarded as a mutual relationship between the character and the actor. Complete.
“Thank you all for your love, thank you to the Magnolia jury for giving me this award, thank you to Director Sun, Gu Wei, Teacher Daoming and all the colleagues of the [Celebrating More Than Years] crew.”
< br>This is the first time Tian Yu has won the Magnolia Award, and it is also the first time he has been nominated. It is obvious that he is surprised and excited about winning the award.
After the acceptance speech, everyone applauded.
"I watched [Qing Yu Nian], and Teacher Tian Yu's performance of 'Wang Qinian' was great!" Lei Jiayin said to Gu Wei beside him while applauding.
"Old Tian is a rare golden supporting actor in the film and television industry, but there have never been good opportunities."
Gu Wei is very optimistic about Tian Yu, and they played opposite each other during the filming of "Celebrating More Than Years" At most, he agreed with the other party's acting skills.
After the supporting actors and actresses are awarded, it is the turn of the ceremony for the most talked about Best Actor and Actor Award.
Yan Ni won this year's Magnolia Award for Best Actress for her wonderful performance in "Youth Pi", while the Best Actor was awarded to Mr. Chen Baoguo from "Old Tavern".
When the awards were announced, Sun Li couldn't hide her disappointment. Gu Wei was lucky. Neither he nor Lei Jiayin, who was nominated for Best Actor next to him, had any reaction. After all, losing to Mr. Chen Baoguo was not a shame.
The Best Director Award was awarded to Wang Jun, the director of "Little Joy". Not only is he a director, he also likes to play roles in his own dramas.
In "Little Farewell", which was also directed by him, he played the role of Hu Xianxu's father and Chen Xiaoyun's husband.
After the last award was awarded, this year's Magnolia Award Ceremony officially ended. Gu Wei was about to leave when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind.
“Mr. Gu!”
"Mr. Hou?"
The person who came was none other than Hou Hongliang from [Noon Sunshine].
“Do you have time later, let’s have a meal together?” Hou Hongliang invited.
“Mr. Hou came here alone?”
“I came alone this time. [Everything is good] I unexpectedly won the International Communication Award this time. I happened to be here Come and get it from Shanghai.”
Gu Wei understood that Hou Hongliang must be looking for him for something, so he smiled and said, "No problem, I just haven't seen him for a long time. Let's get together with Mr. Hou."
After leaving the award ceremony venue, the two of them were at I found a well-decorated restaurant nearby, ordered a few dishes and a bottle of white wine, and chatted while eating.
“It’s a pity today. [Celebrating More Than Years] is a rare good movie, and it is definitely the most popular TV series this year. It makes sense for Magnolia to give you the best actor”
After finishing a small cup of wine, Hou Hongliang poured it over Gu Wei's, feeling a little sorry for him.
Gu Wei smiled: "[Qing Yu Nian] Fire is fire, but it is too commercial, and it is not particularly good in terms of depth and emotion.
It’s normal not to win the award.” “Recently, the company got a very interesting script, which is currently in the hands of director Sun Molong.
He wanted to invite Mr. Gu to star. He originally planned to send you the script and invitation later, but he happened to meet me today and told me directly."
"Old Sun, he has gotten better and better in the past two years. I watched last year's movie [I Am Yu Huanshui], which was very interesting."
The same goes for directors Sun Molong and Gu Wei, as mentioned by Hou Hongliang. An old acquaintance, he is Kong Sheng's royal camera guide, and he has been following Kong Sheng since the earliest "Qianmenlouzi Jiuzhangjiu" and "Crossing Guandong"
Until the filming of "Nirvana in Fire", he and I were also the photographers on the crew.
With the development of "Noon Sunshine" in recent years, Sun Molong, who specializes in camera work, has also begun to work as a director. "I Am Yu Huanshui" is the work he directed.
"This time it is also a short drama. It is estimated to only have more than ten episodes. The rhythm is tight but the content is very gripping."
"What drama?" Hou Hongliang said to Gu Wei I had a premonition in my heart.
"It's called [The Beginning]. It's a TV series adapted from the novel of the same name. It tells a story about the cycle of time and space.
I'll have someone send you the script later."
Gu Wei nodded, it was indeed this drama.
He was still very impressed by [The Beginning], the concept of time and space cycle. It is rarely filmed in the domestic film and television industry, but the drama "Original Space" is very good.
However, the total number of episodes is only 15 and it is a web drama. This determines that even if it is a big hit, the drama itself will not be as good as it is. The profit is also extremely limited.
So Gu Wei didn't consider this drama at all when he chose the film he wanted to make.
"I just happened to have read the original novel, which is similar to [Groundhog Day] and [Source Code]."
"It's almost the same. It mainly tells the story of a bus explosion, the protagonist constantly going through time loops, and finally solving the case."
Gu Wei thought for a while: "My schedule is too full, and I won't have time to film other movies in the past year."
He is somewhat interested in [The Beginning], but he also There really is no time.
Hou Hongliang said with a smile: "The schedule is easy to say. [Begin] itself is a small production, and the shooting time will not be too long. As long as you can appear, the crew will definitely use your time as the main one"
"Okay, let's communicate after I go back and read the script."
The Magnolia Awards Ceremony is over, and the list of winners has caused a wave of discussion on the Internet. The audience does not have much opinion on this year's results. All the award-winning actors are capable, and everyone agrees that they can win the award.
Gu Wei failed to win the title of Magnolia Emperor for the second time, and many fans felt sorry for him.
[What a pity, "Celebrating More Than Years" is so good, why couldn't Gu Wei win the Best Actor award! 】
["Celebrating More Than Years" is the best drama I have watched this year. All the characters in it are very brilliant. Congratulations to Tian Yu for winning the best supporting actor. I feel sorry for Gu Wei]< br>
[Is it possible that Gu Wei failed to win the award because the other characters were too brilliant? "Celebrating More Than Years" gave me the impression that it was more of a group portrait.]
[The subject matter should be limited. Although Gu Wei played Fan Xian That's good, but the TV series and the role itself limit his performance. 】
【Gu Wei lost unjustly. Anyone who has watched "Old Tavern" will know how outstanding Mr. Chen Baoguo's performance was. It is so normal for him to win the award! 】
【Actually, I think "Celebrating More Than Years" is like a commercial film, with a wide audience and everyone likes to watch it.
Teacher Chen Baoguo's "The Old Tavern" is a literary film with a deeper connotation and greater room for actors to perform.
Obviously this year Magnolia attaches more importance to the latter.]
[Wow, don’t be sad if my brother didn’t win the award. I bought a movie ticket for "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" and the movie will be released in two days. Go to the theater to support you! 】
“There was a lot of discussion on the Internet about your failure to win the Magnolia Award, especially since many of your fans are fighting for you.”
In the crew the next day, someone standing aside Reba said while she was resting, scrolling through her phone.
"Fight for me?" Gu Wei frowned and took out his mobile phone to search for relevant news and discussions.
Then his brows slowly relaxed.
It’s okay. Although many fans think it’s a pity that he didn’t win the award, the words were not too intense and there wasn’t much media coverage.
When you are a celebrity, especially a popular celebrity, it is easy to offend many people without knowing anything.
For example, if Gu Wei did not win the Magnolia Award this time, if there are irrational fans who feel that Chen Baoguo has blocked her brother's way, and thus slander and abuse Chen Baoguo online, once the number of people increases, the matter will spread. Yes, Gu Wei offended Chen Baoguo without knowing it, and made many people feel bad about him.
This is how fans pay for idols.
The more popular you are and the more fans you have, the more likely this situation will occur.
So traffic has always been a double-edged sword. Use it well to get twice the result with half the effort, but use it poorly to hurt others and yourself.
August 10th.
“How are you, wife?”
“Right away, I’ll just put on lipstick later”
Fu Xinbo, who was neatly dressed in the room, urged Ying'er impatiently.
“You started putting on your makeup after dinner, and I’ve been waiting for you for half an hour.
Nowadays, you wear a mask when you go out, and no one can see you if you look so good.”< br>
Ying'er finally finished cleaning up and trotted out of the room.
"That's different. I have to put on makeup whenever I go out, otherwise I feel very insecure"
Fu Xinbo was a little helpless and couldn't say anything.
The two of them went to the underground parking lot of the community and drove out. After a while, they arrived at the shopping mall near their home.
After entering, I did not wander around, but went directly to Sparkle Roll International Cinema on the top floor.
"Why don't you buy a late movie ticket? It feels weird to go out to watch a movie in the morning."
Yinger complained when Fu Xinbo came back after exchanging tickets and buying drinks and snacks.
"The show at night is too popular and there are no good seats.
Anyway, we have nothing to do during the day, so now is the perfect time to watch."
Ying'er took two movie tickets from Fu Xinbo's hand and held them up. She picked up her phone to take a photo, then dragged her husband over and the two of them took a photo together.
"What are you doing?"
"Post on Weibo~" Yinger replied without raising her head while pressing her phone.
"Okay, done!"
After finishing it, I looked happy and didn't forget to urge my husband.
“Log in to your own Weibo and post a similar Weibo like me. Just use the same photo as mine.”
“You haven’t watched the movie yet, so you’re in a hurry to check in?” Fu Xinbo didn't understand. It was normal to check in and post on Weibo after watching a movie, but it was a bit abnormal for his wife to be so anxious, let alone ask him to do the same.
“My silly husband, do you really don’t understand or are you pretending not to understand.
What are we doing out here? "
"Watching a movie, didn't you say you wanted to watch Gu Wei's new film [Zhou Chu Removes Three Evils]? "
"I want to watch a movie, but that's not the point.
The most important thing today is that we post this on Weibo!
You are going to join the filming of "Celebrating More Than Years 2" next month. Did you forget that Jingtian got this role for you from Gu Wei?
Now that Gu Wei's new movie is released, although we are not big stars, we can still help promote it."
"Isn't this a bit too deliberate to please." Fu Xinbo is a straight man. .
“What’s the name of flattery? It’s not normal for friends to help each other.
Look, after today, there will definitely be many celebrities showing off their movie tickets, just like how everyone helped Gu Wei promote his movie on Weibo a few days ago.
Okay, stop the ink stains, I’ll do it for you.”
With that said, Ying'er took Fu Xinbo's cell phone over politely and started Weibo for him.
