Chapter 346: Overt guns and hidden arrows
An hour later.
Xu Kun held the crystal cup of the 'Most Popular Male and Female Artist Award' and walked off the stage in a strange atmosphere.
Although he had known for a long time that the name of the trophy had been changed, this was nothing less than a bombshell to most people present, so much so that many people forgot to applaud.
Amidst the sparse applause, the atmosphere seemed very strange.
The eyes of countless people at the scene were wandering between Xu Kun and Li Youbin, and some media people even had their eyes gleaming, wishing that the award ceremony would end immediately so that the parties involved could be cornered at the scene to investigate.
On the crew side of "Zhu Yuanzhang", Ning Jing had long heard Xu Kun talk about the award's name change. Curiously, she asked for the crystal cup to take a look at it, and asked with a smile: "Is this trophy of yours out of print?"
< br>
"It's hard to say, even if the next Golden Eagle Awards restores the 'Most Popular Actor and Actor Award' but does not cancel the 'Most Popular Actor and Actor Award', I wouldn't be surprised at all - the 'Best Performing Arts Award' Isn’t that how it came about? ”
"This Golden Eagle is getting more and more chaotic."
"It should be said that the three major awards are quite confusing. The Feitian Award is slightly better, but it is too biased towards ZZ's correctness."
Just as he was talking, a middle-aged staff member squeezed forward, bent down and said to Xu Kun: "Director Xu, the boss is worried about causing some trouble, and wants you to leave early. Look..."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked nervously at the back row.
"Leave early?"
Seeing his actions, Xu Kun subconsciously looked back, and then saw the media in the back row gearing up, as if they were sharks smelling blood.
If you get entangled with these people, it will not be easy to get away. If you are not careful, your flight to Hangzhou may be delayed.
But Xu Kun hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and refused: "Let's forget it. If I am no longer there when Teacher Li Youbin comes to the stage to receive the award, the media will not know how to report it later."
At this time, the entire awards ceremony was only halfway through, and then there were the host awards, documentaries, cartoons and other awards to be announced.
The final highlight was Li Youbin’s ‘Best Performing Arts Award’.
"This..."
The man looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak, as if he wanted to persuade him.
Seeing this, Xu Kun took out his cell phone and said, "Well, I won't make it difficult for you. Whether it's the leader of the organizing committee or the Hunan TV station, I'll call and explain it to you."
"No, no need!"
The man hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I will go back and explain, and try to mobilize as many security guards as possible to clear the way for you."
With that said, he left in a hurry.
Xu Kun looked at his panicked back and felt that something was not right.
After hesitating for a while, he finally sent text messages to the leaders of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles and Director Ou Yangyang respectively. However, a few minutes later, both parties rejected the arrangement for him to leave early.
As expected, there are many popular people and wrongdoers. If I had just agreed to leave early, I am afraid that I would have fallen into someone's scheme.
And after hearing what Xu Kun said about what just happened, Ning Jing and Bao Qiang around them felt incredible.
No matter how messy it is, this is still the Golden Eagle Award, an event hosted by the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, the Television Association and Hunan Television. Aren't you afraid of offending the abbot by doing such a small trick at the award ceremony?
"Then we have to be able to catch people."
Xu Kun shook his head slightly. In fact, he still had some darker speculations in his heart - although the organizer claimed that there was no arrangement, does it really have nothing to do with the organizer?
The Golden Eagle Awards are now doing almost anything to increase their momentum, and if you leave early on the day of the award ceremony, it will undoubtedly create an even greater sensation.
However, if this kind of speculation is spoken out, it will simply offend people.
He probably noticed something strange from Xu Kun's text message. When Dong Qing went on stage to receive the 'Best TV Program Host Award', Director Ou Yang personally called.
He said that after the award ceremony, sufficient security personnel would be dispatched to ensure that Xu Kun was escorted out smoothly, and then he repeatedly apologized to Xu Kun for the chaos in on-site management.
Faced with this attitude, what else could Xu Kun say?
Naturally, we can only hold it high and let it go gently. What Xu Kun didn't expect was that he received an unexpected surprise - he won the award in the 'TV commercial category', and the winning advertisement was 'E280 Kung Fu Chapter'.
When those long legs were frozen on the big screen, Tang Yan was excited and proud but also a little shy. When he noticed that the camera was looking at him, he subconsciously shrank his neck. When he realized what he was doing, he hurriedly smiled and waved to the camera.
Xu Kun, who had already won two "Sight Emperor" awards, seemed to be at ease when he came on stage to receive the award again.
He simply thanked the organizing committee and the sponsor's father, as well as Liu Haibo for his efforts, and returned to the stage with the gold medal.
Another half hour passed.
Finally, it was time for the finale of the ‘Best Performing Arts Award’. When several nominees were announced on stage, the camera frequently focused on Xu Kun.
Even ‘Li Youbin’, who has the loudest voice, does not receive this treatment, as if he is hinting that he will use three materials to treat the emperor.
Xu Kun, who was well prepared, also pretended to be slightly nervous.
After the award-giving guest shouted, "The winner is Li Youbin," he immediately applauded enthusiastically. When Li Youbin passed by, he stretched out his hands to express congratulations to him across the distance.
During Li Youbin's five-minute acceptance speech, Xu Kun was not the most excited person in the audience, but he was definitely the one with the most decent smile.
In just these five minutes, he felt that the muscles on his face were a little sore. This award ceremony was more laborious than filming a movie.
Fortunately, Director Ouyang kept his word and arranged for more than a dozen security guards to clear the way. Liu Yifei, who was standing in the front, attracted a lot of firepower. When the show ended, Xu Kun was finally spared from the second offense.
Only when he and Bao Qiang got into the car bound for the airport did Xu Kun relax.
Bao Qiang is still brooding over the plot at the awards ceremony, and feels that the entertainment industry is getting more and more complicated.
"Look what you're saying, when we were playing small roles in the past, weren't there fewer people who were tricked by the lighting master, the props, and the assistant director? Now, although no one dares to offend us in person, there are even more jealous people behind our backs."
As he said that, Xu Kun pointed out four fingers to Baoqiang: "I can almost make this amount this year. If you make more, others will naturally make less. If I don't target you, who will I target?"
Including the film investment income, he will have almost over 40 million for the whole year. This is still without actively exploiting the acupoints. If he only focuses on money, he may exceed 100 million for the whole year.
No wonder everyone is struggling to become famous.
"Seriously."
Seeing that Bao Qiang's eyes almost popped out of his head in shock, Xu Kun said sternly: "What are you going to do with the next film? Do you want to try converting the pay into profit?"
Baoqiang nodded without hesitation, and then asked: "I have saved more than two million this year, can I invest it together?"
"Are you a kid? What if..."
"Then I admit it."
Baoqiang said seriously: "I definitely wouldn't trust anyone else, but if I follow you, Brother Kun, even if it's...I don't care!"
"You boy..."
Xu Kun hooked his neck hard and said with a smile: "Don't worry, with just your little money, even this time... we can make it back ten times or a hundred times in the future!"
It's no wonder that many big stars are coaxed around by Master Wang. Even Xu Kun and Bao Qiang, who don't believe in evil, deliberately avoid words such as "losing money" and "movie hits the street" when they speak, which shows that The level of superstition in this business.
Just as he was talking, Xu Kun suddenly received a call from Chen Shu.
Ever since he left the crew of "The World" in anger, he has never contacted Xu Kun again. Xu Kun always felt that it was not a good thing when he suddenly called again this time.
As a result, after answering the phone, Chen Shu expressed that she wanted to visit the cast of "Assembly" and said that she wanted to see with her own eyes what the performance of the heroine chosen by Director Feng to replace him would be like.
Tsk~
Isn't this just adding to the chaos?
But after all, he had done more than a dozen sex acts for free, and Xu Kun couldn't refuse. He could only argue that Qin Lan hadn't joined the group yet, so he could just talk about it for the time being.
