"The movie "In and Out" was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival and won five nominations"

"Mei Zihan" was praised by film critics, calling him the most talented actor in the past ten years! "

"Three Gold Orders, Mei Zihan's Road to Actor"

Since a few days ago, news about Mei Zihan and the movie "In and Out" has bombarded people's nerves on various platforms.

Today I heard that "In and Out" has been shortlisted for this award, and tomorrow Mei Zihan nominated for that award again. The names of these awards sound familiar, and people can't help but wonder for a moment, are these awards all Chinese cabbages? Can't pick it up

Of course, these awards are definitely not Chinese cabbage. On the contrary, each one is quite important, and anyone who gets it can be used as a "best actor".

Mei Zihan was filming "Fire of War 1940" before, plus the rest period before "In and Out", so there has been no news for almost a year. But the plum blossoms didn't feel worried at all. On the contrary, they were all very happy.

Their Meimei is about to become a film star. As Meimei's career fan and beauty fan for many years, now she must keep a low profile and not blackmail Meimei. After all, their Meimei is no longer at the same level as those niche students online, and they must also be fans of quality! Although the days of waiting are tough, it doesn't matter, just read Meimei's previous works again.

If it doesn't work, you can still try the position of administrator!

"Hey, you're shortlisted again?" Mei Zihan received another call from the organizing committee of a certain film award. He was still excited at first, but now he has become numb.

How many times is this already

Almost thirteen.

With so many nominations, even if he only has half the chance of winning, he can become a new and powerful movie star who can stand out from the crowd. What's more, the probability of him getting the best actor is almost 100%.

The subject matter is outstanding, the acting is excellent, and it is also the work of a great director who has retired from the industry. No matter how you look at it, this movie has no chance of losing the selection. Needless to say, it is safe for Mei Zihan to get two or more of the three gold medals in China, and for foreign film festivals, he can get more than half of them.

"Well, it's a bit boring." Mei Zihan threw the phone away and lay on the sofa alone. Liu Tianyi and Jiang Ying were sitting on the other side, and they were studying what clothes Mei Zihan would wear for the award ceremony for the next play.

After all, there are thirteen trophies, so you need to prepare thirteen sets of clothes.

Oh, no, for the domestic premiere of "In and Out", Mei Zihan had to wear an extra suit.

Although "In and Out" is invincible in terms of awards, but at the box office, not many people dare to guarantee it, even if Mei Zihan plays the role. There are not many literary films that do well at the box office, not to mention that most of the content of "In and Out" is based on parents' gossip. Therefore, the film studio first sent "In and Out" to the major film festivals for awards, and after confirming that the finalists will win the award, they will come back and brag about it, so that more audiences can be deceived to watch the film.

Ah bah, I can't say it's a lie, it should be called proper propaganda.

"Haha, pass kill!" Liu Tian hung up the phone contentedly, with a cheerful smile on his face, "This time, none of the top clothing brands have called and are willing to sponsor you for the next ten or so years." clothes for the next awards show, and hope you'll take their endorsement."

Although Mei Zihan was also very popular in the past, there are always a few brands that feel that Mei Zihan is not "beautiful" enough and does not fit their clothing positioning. They just chose other idols, and Liu Tianyi scolded them secretly. The guy has no eyes.

It's all right now, the anger that has been pent up for several years has finally come out, now it's Mei Zihan's turn to pick them, and they don't have the role to pick anyone anymore.

"Brother Liu, the contract we signed at the beginning seemed to be for twenty years, and now less than one-fifth of the time has passed, so I'm done." Seeing Liu Tianyi's happy face, Mei Zihan couldn't help but I just want to tease him.

When Liu Tian heard this, he immediately became vigilant, "What do you mean, Mei Zihan, you don't want to cross the river and tear down the bridge, do you?"

"I think the amount we signed in the contract needs to be changed." Mei Zihan said pretendingly.

"... You are so rich and still want to defraud me, a little manager?" Liu Tian subconsciously touched his wallet.

"Well, I'm a man with a family. It costs a lot of money to support a family." Mei Zihan sighed, "Jiang Ying and I plan to travel for a year or so."

Then you can't withhold my money!

Liu Tianyi roared crazily in his heart, but he also knew that Mei Zihan was so popular now that he must bleed a little.

"Then... 10%?" Liu Tianyi stretched out a finger and said pitifully.

"10% is still a bit much." Mei Zihan sighed slightly.

"It's not much, dear." Liu Tianyi retorted, "Where do you go to find an all-round manager like me?"

"I'll give you 30%." Mei Zihan fell on Jiang Ying's body.

"Thirty percent is still too... um? Thirty percent?" Liu Tianyi almost thought he had heard it wrong. As soon as he raised his head, he saw Mei Zihan hugging Jiang Ying and smiling out of joy.

"Hahaha, Jiang Ying, did you see that Brother Liu looks so funny hahahaha."

Liu Tianyi:! ! ! !

"Mei Zihan, can't your acting skills be put in a good place?" Liu Tianyi's veins twitched.

"Brother Liu, although I'll give you 30%, the frequency of my acting will definitely be reduced. For movies, at most one movie a year, and for endorsements, it's best not to exceed two." Mei Zihan said seriously He really said, "I'm already thirty-one, and I'm almost entering middle age. I have to grasp the tail of my youth and enjoy it."

The 31-year-old actress next door is still playing a 15-year-old girl. You look the same at 31 as you are 26 or 7. Why are you so old

"After A-Han's "Fire of War 1940", his vision has improved again." Jiang Ying patted Mei Zihan's waist and signaled him to shut up, "There are currently no movies in China that he can watch. Of course, the script is very good You can relax the conditions. In Hollywood, after Ahan wins the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor in a TV Series, there should be more scripts coming. I will trouble you to pay more attention to these."

"... After all, you guys still plan to go out and play?"

"I'm sorry, Brother Liu, although I know you really want to go with us, but it's really inconvenient." Mei Zihan took a serious look at Liu Tianyi, "Brother Liu, you're not young anymore, why don't you take advantage of me? During the time you go out to play, you should also make a girlfriend."

"You don't need to worry about this. When I get impatient, I will turn around and sign a few young models, and I will step on you." Liu Tianyi couldn't help rolling his eyes, "Anyway, you can play for half a year. After winning the award in 1940, you still have to come back obediently.

"Hey, yes." Mei Zihan rubbed his nose, "And we have to prepare for the second season of "The Crown"."

"There are also speeches. You have to prepare at least a dozen or so, and you don't want to memorize them?" Liu Tian thought of the things he would have to deal with in the next six months, but Mei Zihan and Jiang Ying were wandering outside, and his whole body felt Something is wrong.

A promised artist is more tiring than an agent? Mei Zihan didn't have the consciousness of a new actor at all. Shouldn't they take advantage of the high social status to make more money by filming or simply sign a few newcomers to be their own bosses

Well, Mei Zihan is really not short of money.

Golden Sun Awards Ceremony.

This time when Mei Zihan came to the ceremony, there were not many ignorant people, because Mei Zihan was surrounded by well-known bigwigs in the industry, the last one was also a well-known producer, and almost all the rest were The chairman of the film and television company and so on.

Today is Mei Zihan's solo show.

Oh, and there will be more than a dozen awards shows in the future, all of which are Mei Zihan's awards show alone.

Chen Juntao and Shen Leqiu are here as judges this time, and they don't have any films this year. Even if there is, they will not let their works come head-to-head with "In and Out" this time.

As the judges this time, they couldn't say that Mei Zihan's performance was not good even if they had no conscience. It's just that they didn't think that Mei Zihan, who hadn't been looked down upon by them two years ago, has come to this point in a blink of an eye

No, he should have known earlier.

It started on the day when he failed the audition for "The Crown" and Mei Zihan succeeded.

Sure enough, in the entertainment industry, if you don't make progress, it's easy to be caught up from behind.

"I lost. He still has the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor. The nomination has already been secured. "Fire of War" has not yet been released, but actor Rick has publicly praised Mei Zihan's performance and invited Mei Zihan to be his next." I'm the co-star of this movie." Seeing that Chen Juntao had been staring at Mei Zihan, Shen Leqiu couldn't help but said.

Actor Rick rarely publicly praises an actor, let alone a Chinese actor. Although director Zhou Guojian has the ability to invite Rick to play the leading role, he cannot force Rick to praise Mei Zihan.

The only thing they have an advantage over Mei Zihan is "seniority", but after this batch of award ceremonies, Mei Zihan should have more confidence than them.

After all, the awards they won abroad were still not as good as Mei Zihan's.

"I recently received a good script, it might be a double hero, which is very different from our previous roles, are you interested?" Chen Juntao turned his gaze away, looked at Shen Leqiu and said, "We can't beat him alone. But it’s not necessarily the case when two people are together.”

As an actor, if you want to surpass another actor, you still have to rely on your work.

"Oh, then send it to have a look." Shen Leqiu was eager to try, "To be honest, I used to see these old faces of yours every award ceremony, which made me lose my motivation to hang out in the movie circle. .But now, I feel like I'm a little more interested in getting ahead of myself."

"Then I'll go back and send you the script."

"Hello, audience friends in front of the TV and computers, welcome to the awarding ceremony of the Golden Sun Awards... Alright, now Mei Zihan is walking towards us, and beside him is the director Li Wei, The entry they brought is "In and Out"!"

On the red carpet, Mei Zihan and Director Li Wei waved to the camera together, and there were endless screams on the stage. Some plum blossoms in front of the TV hugged each other excitedly.

"Ah, how can I, Mei, be so handsome? How can I smile so warmly?"

""In and Out" is so good, I must reread it ten times!"

"It's been three years. I've been a fan of Meimei for three years. Seeing Meimei go all the way to the present, I feel that I'm complete."

"Wooooow, let me cry for a while..."

All the online platforms broadcasting the awards ceremony were also filled with messages from plum blossoms. If you want to put an end to the carnival of plum blossoms, you can only turn off all the barrage and messages.

"In and Out" was selected to be screened the day before the Golden Sun Awards Ceremony, which can be regarded as a boost for Mei Zihan's best actor this time.

Although ordinary audiences are not interested in this film, they still praise Mei Zihan's acting skills in it and the big reversal at the end.

"When I saw the end, I got goosebumps."

"A thought-provoking movie."

"Mei Zihan really doesn't think about playing a perverted murderer or something?"

The attitude of film critics is even more obvious.

Before the movie was screened, they had collectively praised it. This time, after the movie was released, they praised it again. They almost put Mei Zihan on the altar. Look at the small details in the movie and so on.

Of course, the plum blossoms showed their full combat effectiveness, and they can be seen everywhere booking the venue and inviting passers-by to watch movies.

Unknowingly, the number of plum blossoms has expanded to an indescribable number. Eighty percent of Mei Zihan's fans on Weibo are real. Just doing this calculation is already terrifying.

On the first day, "In and Out" won a box office of 100 million yuan, directly recovering the cost!

"Mr. Chen, you have also been nominated for the best actor this time, do you have confidence in this award?"

"No, not at all. I also watched "In and Out", and I think Mei Zihan deserves this award."

"Film Emperor Xiao, who do you think will be the best actor this time?"

"Does it need to be said?" Xiao Qian smiled at the camera, "The person who can beat me at the box office, if he can't win this trophy, I will call and scold him."

"Oh, the director is still regretting it. It would be nice if our film came to the awards later."

Before the official awards ceremony, the reporters interviewed various people about their views on this award, and almost 100% of them chose Mei Zihan.

"At this time, if Mei Zihan doesn't win the Best Actor, he will definitely be scolded as a shady actor."

"This is definitely not a question of being scolded. If Mei Zihan is not awarded the Jinxu Award, it is estimated that it will not be able to go on next year hahahaha."

For this video interview, the public is almost ridiculed.

As Mei Zihan's good brothers, Qin Ling and Xu Ji'an were naturally the hardest-hit areas pursued by reporters.

"Of course, of course I support him." Xu Ji'an also showed a rare sincere smile. He also admired Mei Zihan's performance in "In and Out". I heard that "Fire of War 1940" is better, I don't know if it is true

"I've bought him a display cabinet for his trophies. Haha, in fact, it's okay to buy a house as a gift for him." Qin Ling would be much more generous, "Unfortunately, he probably won't want it."

666, My Qin Ling is really timid, and directly gave away the house! ! !

Mei Zihan: Who said I don't want it, if you dare to give it to me, I will take it!

Hahaha, Mei Zihan shouted from the air, asking for a villa!

Qin Ling: I was just joking, why do you take it seriously? I seem to have heard Qin Ling say that.

"Ah? He said yes, so I'll buy it." Qin Ling smiled at the reporter, "After giving you the villa, don't ask me for this year's birthday present."

The big star's good brother is different, send... a villa? Looking at his small toilet, weeping silently.

"Ah, did Qin Ling send you a villa?" Xu Ji'an was taken aback by the reporter's question, "Then I have to spend money to install a swimming pool in his villa." Qin Ling is also a top-notch student, so how can Xu Ji'an's money compare with him? Compare

Damn, wasn't this reporter invited by Mei Zihan to deliberately trick him

In Xu Ji'an's heart, the crazy villain of Zhamei Zihan, this guy really can't be praised.

Ten o'clock at night.

Mei Zihan sat on a chair, waiting for the final award presentation.

Although he knew that he was 100% the best male lead this time, when Mei Zihan was really sitting in the audience, he was still so excited that he was about to die.

Because he was the big hit this time, the camera always turned to Mei Zihan from time to time. Even if Mei Zihan was nervous, he could only pretend to be relaxed with his acting skills.

My makeup is no longer a problem, and my suit is still neat.

What about Jiang Ying? Jiang Ying should be at Jiang's house now, looking at herself with her father and cousin.

Many thoughts turned in Mei Zihan's mind, but he still forced himself to calm down.

It doesn't matter.

After this time it will be fine.

In addition to the Jinxu Award, there are twelve other awards waiting for you, so don't be cowardly!

The best supporting actor award was presented.

Best Supporting Actress was also awarded.

It's almost there.

Today, Chen Juntao and Li Ruo went up to present the best actor trophy. A film king, a Li Ruo, this formation is scary enough.

Looking at the lineup of award presenters, the candidates who were also nominated for the male lead felt a bit chilled.

The main reason for this is not Mei Zihan, these two people probably won't come at all.

Although they say they support Mei Zihan, who doesn't want the best actor trophy to be for themselves

"To be honest, I'm a little nervous." Li Ruo looked elegant and well-mannered in a chest-length dress.

"I'm also nervous." Chen Juntao smiled, "If I had known that the other guest was you, I would have dressed better."

"You look good today." Li Ruo complimented.

"It's useless to dress well. I've been here too many times, and now the audience is probably tired of seeing me." Chen Juntao smiled self-deprecatingly, "But audience friends, although I have come here many times, There are not many times to receive awards, so don't you have newcomers and forget the old ones."

"Hahaha." Li Ruo laughed, "Okay, okay, don't waste time and lie to the camera, if we don't give out awards, we will be kicked out."

"Ahem, okay." Chen Juntao became serious, "The winner of the 39th Jinxu Awards for Best Actor is—"

Li Ruo also followed suit.

The two read out the winner's name in unison.

"Mei Zihan!"
