After finding his seat and sitting down, Feng Yi looked at the guests on both sides.
Neither of them is from the entertainment industry, one is a sports star and the other is a relatively famous video blogger.
After saying hello, Feng Yi took out his phone and looked through the messages. There were messages from Feng Chi, and also from a few people he knew in Beijing before, asking about his schedule in Beijing and asking him to spend half a day out if he had time.
I replied to the message, chatted with a few guests sitting nearby, and exchanged contact information. By the time the time was almost up, the venue was full and the ceremony was about to begin.
The conversation gradually died down and Feng Yi looked towards the stage.
With the explosive opening BGM and the images appearing on the big screen, the Star Night ceremony officially began.
This is an award ceremony, but there are also performances interspersed in it, and it is live-streamed on social media and multiple video platforms. Therefore, in front of the camera, most of the stars off the stage maintain their demeanor, and every time the camera scans over, beautiful and handsome pictures can be captured.
The awards ceremony has both an entertainment and non-entertainment part.
Today, on this occasion, terms such as "idol" and "star" do not only refer to those artists in the entertainment industry, but also include people related to sports, fashion and beauty, science education, current affairs and social events.
Not only those who stand in the spotlight are stars.
Each award is not only voted by the whole network, but also comprehensively evaluated by experts. It is not certain that you can win the award just by looking at the data. The platform values traffic data, but also pays attention to word of mouth.
Feng Yi looked at the young boy band performing on the stage.
Since his life took a different path, he hasn’t attended a live performance.
Although this occasion is not a pure performance, many faces from the entertainment industry can be seen here. Because Feng Yi once wanted to develop in the entertainment industry, he can also recognize many people in the circle.
However, in just one year, some people have become unknown or even been banned, while some unknown ones have emerged or become famous overnight.
Feng Yi didn’t recognize the boy band on the stage. They debuted after he retired from the entertainment industry.
For these young, unfamiliar faces, every stage performance and every appearance is an opportunity for them.
From them, Feng Yi can see the spirit of hard work and ambition for their dreams.
There's nothing wrong with it.
It's better than lying down and giving up.
Feng Yi thought of his past self.
With a mentality of not seeing each other for a long time, Feng Yi watched the performances on the stage very seriously, even though he really couldn't understand some of the songs.
The applause was very powerful and not just perfunctory.
Therefore, every time the camera scans over, the audience will find—
Is the performance really that good? Feng Yi is watching it so seriously!
I find reading the reviews much more interesting than watching the performances!
Could it be that Feng Yi was watching with envy? After all, this guy almost became an insider.
Feng Yi not only watched the interspersed performances, but also the introduction of the winning deeds played when each award was presented, which he watched very seriously.
His understanding of those events was limited to the level of reading the pushed news. When he was at home, the housekeeper would sort out the current political news or entertainment and civil affairs. When he was out, he would check the pushed news on his phone when he had free time, but he didn't understand anything more.
The presentation of deeds at the award ceremony should be more comprehensive and three-dimensional.
One award after another came down to the most influential star award.
In the past, this award was either given to stars in the entertainment industry or stars in the sports industry. If it was given to stars in the entertainment industry, there would always be some trouble, and the bloody storm between fans of all parties could last for several days.
If it is given to the sports circle, there will be short-term attention and not so many verbal battles, but relatively speaking, the attention and topics will be much less.
The host on the stage: "The next one, some people remember him because of his appearance; some people remember him because of his amazing professional ability..."
Although the name was not mentioned and the introduction was not completed, many people present had already smiled with "I understand".
The people sitting near Feng Yi were already looking at him.
The introduction of the deeds began on the big screen.
It starts with a giant python attack.
There was a burst of exclamations at the scene.
The timid ones couldn't help but lean back, and those who were afraid of snakes simply looked away.
The number of bullet comments on the live broadcast platform increased suddenly, and the dense "bullet comment protection" mode was instantly turned on. Those who wanted to watch the screen could only turn off the bullet comments.
The photo on the screen was of the seven-meter giant python that Feng Yi caught in Florida.
When displayed on such a large screen, the visual impact is indeed quite strong.
Then there were photos of Feng Yi catching various snakes, from venomous snakes as long as forearms to pythons as thick as thighs. Some were taken abroad, some were taken while he was on missions in China, and some were taken by passers-by and widely circulated online.
People who don’t know Feng Yi can’t help but feel respect for him when seeing these photos.
Most people have a fear of snakes, and they admire Feng Yi for being able to control both large and small poisonous snakes and giant pythons.
However, the organizers also knew that there couldn’t be too many such scenes as not everyone could accept them, so they quickly switched.
Then there is an excerpt from Steve’s video interview, in which he commented on Feng Yi: “He is a very talented young man. When it comes to catching snakes, I am not as good as him!”
Cheng Si, who was filming an outdoor variety show abroad and was unable to attend the event, was also invited by the organizer to record a video.
Cheng Si is now able to face up to his past embarrassment. As a well-known outdoor blogger, being able to face up to that lesson is also a progress in his life.
Therefore, when recording this interview video, Cheng Si was very calm and even joked to himself:
"Do you think it's easy to catch snakes when you see him doing it? No matter how big the snake is, he catches it easily, just like picking up a spicy stick. You think, 'I can do it, too.' However, it's possible that the result you get is..."
The picture switches on the big screen in front.
The video played was of last summer's event when Cheng Si and Feng Yi participated in the Nanchong scientific expedition together, but were bitten by a cobra and carried out of the forest, and then taken away by a helicopter to the hospital.
There was a burst of laughter at the scene.
Cheng Si: "This is advice from an outdoor blogger who once had a car accident and nearly died in Shekou!"
Of course, since it is the most influential award, it is definitely more than just catching snakes.
The scene of Feng Yi carrying the panda on his back on a rainy night appears on the screen again.
First there were a few photos that were broadcast in the news, and then there were the night scenes captured by the rescue station’s surveillance camera, which was the scene where Feng Yi was struggling to carry the seriously injured giant panda towards the rescue station.
At the same time, there are words from Director Yao of the rescue station:
"At that time, the weather was very bad, with wind and rain, and it was night. Except for the staff on duty, everyone else had gone to bed. I was reading some materials in the room when I suddenly heard the station attendant in the duty room shout, 'Someone is coming!'"
"Anyone who knows a little bit about that mountain range knows that there are no paths for people to walk on in many places. If you are not careful, you will fall and get injured, or even endanger your life!"
"I was really shocked at the time! I felt it was very... unbelievable!"
"In such bad weather, he not only walked through the rain safely, but also carried an injured giant panda on his back!"
"If it were someone else, let alone on a rainy night, even in the daytime, without the giant panda on their back, they might not be able to reach the rescue station safely!"
Regardless of whether they were participants present at the conference or viewers in front of the live broadcast screen, when they saw the news about Feng Yi carrying a giant panda on his back and catching a giant python with his bare hands, many people doubted the authenticity of the events.
However, after watching Feng Yi and Feng Chi’s “Big Windmill” today, I finally believed it.
Truly feel the power gap between people!
In addition to carrying a giant panda on a rainy night, the scene changes again.
The footage played was a shot by a documentary crew on the north side of the mountain.
Although only the silhouette and back of the person were captured, it was very artistic.
Sunset.
Silent tombstones.
A young man looking at the distant mountains.
Add a touching BGM.
There are also interviews with staff at the Mountain North Monitoring Station:
"Very down to earth, a very nice young man."
"At first, when we saw an internet celebrity expert, our staff were very excited. But in the evening, we suddenly stopped seeing him. Later we found out that he had gone to visit his grave."
“Those buried in that cemetery are researchers and volunteers who sacrificed their lives for this forest.”
"The TV crew accidentally photographed him while filming, but unfortunately, when they came back to find him, he had already gone into the mountains."
"He donated a lot of supplies to our station! They are all supplies that the station really needs!"
After this video, another scene appeared.
It was a piece of news released by an official account - a young skeleton swallowed by the mountains was finally found and successfully buried.
The news stated that it was Feng Yi who provided the clues.
The screen changes again.
Feng Yi participated in catching starfish and sea snakes.
There is a photo taken by Feng Yi when he went into the mountains alone, showing a scene where a Qinhuang Elaphe and a Caulis Viper were crawling freely on his hand.
Deep in the mountains, on a large rock protruding from the hillside, a young man was sitting and waving towards the train.
Several pictures flashed by, and the last one displayed on the big screen was a page of information provided by the Joint Security Bureau.
The mission of the Joint Guarantee Bureau was not shown in detail, but the result of the half-year review provided by the Joint Guarantee Bureau was shown - excellent.
The Joint Guarantee Bureau will not commit fraud, and everyone knows the value of this excellent product!
None of the stories just played on the big screen were hyped up; they are real and verifiable facts!
The applause has already started.
Feng Yi blushed for a moment.
Others thought he was embarrassed and shy, including the audience in the live broadcast room.
Feng Yi was indeed embarrassed, but not in the way others thought.
He was embarrassed because a large part of it was acted!
It was indeed done, but it was not as difficult as everyone thought.
I feel unworthy of this!
But I just can’t say it.
The others couldn't understand what Feng Yi was thinking, so they continued to applaud.
Feng Yi adjusted his mood and went on stage to receive the award.
The award was presented to Feng Yi by Mr. Gu, a national TV program host, national ecological environment ambassador, and media entrepreneur.
There is indeed not much objection to Feng Yi winning this award.
Even if there was such a thing before, now with so many things going on, I can’t bring myself to say it.
There is enough traffic and a lot of practical work has been done.
If we simply look at the data on social media, Feng Yi is indeed not as good as many artists in the entertainment industry. He certainly cannot compare with those who can easily get hundreds of thousands or even millions of reposts.
But he scored a lot of extra points in the overall assessment.
The platform values traffic, but it also values influence from all walks of life.
It's rare to see someone who is good-looking and capable, has a unique development path, is suspected to have mysterious financial support, and has a background in the Joint Guarantee Bureau.
There is only one such seedling in the entire Internet!
The organizers certainly take it seriously!
In order to present Feng Yi with the award, the organizers interviewed many people in order to show the public Feng Yi’s deeds!
This proves that we are not operating behind closed doors, nor are we capital bootlickers, and we are certainly not afraid of the Joint Guarantee Bureau!
As for whether you believe it or not, that’s another matter.
In short, the organizers believe that giving Feng Yi this award will cause the least controversy.
In the comment section of the live broadcast room, there were indeed only a few people who expressed objections.
Show!
Is Feng Yi trying to establish himself as a rich kid again by wearing this outfit today
Suddenly there are so many news about him. After today’s award ceremony, the traffic will definitely increase again. So is the next step to start selling products
However, these comments were quickly refuted by others.
A KTV box in Beijing.
Several young people gathered here.
One of the TV screens inside was showing the live broadcast of the ceremony.
It’s just that some of these viewers are there to see the stars, while others are there to find people.
Pan Youning took out his phone and walked aside to contact his brother.
Before, although he had heard that Feng Yi was coming to Beijing to participate in an event, Feng Yi was suddenly transferred to another city to catch snakes at that time, and he was not sure if he could come. Now he was already at the event site, and he didn't know how many days he would stay in Beijing.
"Hey, brother, Feng Yi has really come to the capital! After all, it's a rare opportunity for Feng Yi to come to the capital, so shouldn't we express our gratitude?"
At the beginning of the year, Feng Yi participated in a python catching competition in Virginia and encountered an alligator on the way. If Feng Yi hadn't stopped the alligator with a sliding tackle, who knows what tragic incident would have happened to him.
On the other end of the phone, Pan Weining said, "I sent him a message before the ceremony started, and he said he would stay in Beijing for a few days for other things. I thought, if he can spare half a day, we can take him out to play, have a meal together or something."
Over there, the Pan brothers were thinking about how to make their savior have a good time. On the sofa in the box, a few young men heard Feng Yi's name and started talking about him.
One of the young men who didn't pay attention to this aspect frowned and said, "Feng? I think I heard someone mention it, but I can't remember it. Are you good at playing games?"
Another person said, "He's not from the gaming world. He's very good at catching snakes! He's called 'Snake Brother', don't you know?"
The man cried out: "How could I, who is so afraid of snakes, pay attention to those things?"
"The video you watched today was also of him." someone next to him said.
"Which one?"
"That's the one that threw the guy up in the air and swung him around. You laughed for half an hour."
Those who had no impression of Feng Yi before immediately recognized him and slapped their thighs: "Oh! It's the 'Windmill Brother'!"
If you say Feng Yi or Feng Chi, he can't remember, but if you say "windmill", he will remember it clearly!
