Only Starlight

Chapter 87

Views:

Every major film festival is a time for film lovers to revel, and this year's Academy Awards is no exception. Half a month in advance, the Internet began to speculate on the list, because "Liar" has a strong momentum, and almost no one doubts that it will be nominated, the difference is only in how much it gets. Among the leading actors, Jiang Yi received the most attention, and the crowd said, "If nothing else, Jiang Yi will be the best newcomer, right? I'm leaving my words here, and he must be the nominee!"

When the list came out, as expected, Jiang Yi was nominated for Best New Actor. But immediately afterwards, the crowd was surprised to find that in addition to the best new actor, Jiang Yi was also nominated for the best actor for the role of Xu Ran? !

This is a bit surprising.

Because of one role, two awards were nominated at the same time, and one of them was the best actor. Although this kind of situation has happened before, it is still relatively rare in general. After the impact of several works, the audience basically recognized Jiang Yi's strength, admitting that he is a rare student who has both idol and strength. But in any case, he has only been popular for less than two years. "Liar" is even his first movie, is it really so powerful

It's about to compete for the Best Actor!

Questions surfaced on the Internet, ranging from whether Jiang Yi is eligible to be nominated for the best actor, to whether Xu Ran is considered an actor or not. Just when everyone was discussing, someone jumped out and said: "Jiang Yi is not considered a hero, so is Du Wenhan? I think that even Du Wenhan can be nominated, and Jiang Yi's nomination is too normal!"

Yes, Du Wenhan was also nominated for Best Actor with Jiang Yi.

Du Wenhan has made his debut for many years, and he has also produced amazing works. The title of actor is not for nothing, but this time he is really unconvincing. Under Xu Ran's radiance, his Gao Hong was dull, and such a performance could be nominated for the best actor. Everyone immediately thought, yes, even he can be nominated, and Jiang Yi's nomination is a problem!

Others were keenly aware of another problem.

As for who the male protagonist of "The Liar" is, it was discussed round after round when the movie was released. Douban also spawned n film reviews for this, and there are countless tall buildings in Tianya. Standing for Jiang Yi is basically explaining his meaning in the movie, while Du Wenhanfang is steadfast in clinging to the official ranking.

Seeing that this question was about to become an unsolved mystery of the century, it encountered such an accident.

Jiang Yi and Du Wenhan were nominated together, so if one of them won the best actor, wouldn't it be officially stamped and certified, who is the real male number one in "Liar"? !

The crowd is boiling!

Gossip is always the most attractive. The fights between Du Wenhan fans and Jiang Yi fans are still fresh in everyone's memory. I didn't expect a new round to come so soon!

And judging from this posture, the upcoming finals will be the annual finals!

There was a lot of noise on the Internet, and even the marketing account was gone. In the end, many people who didn't pay attention to the film festival were attracted and looked forward to the results.

Under such intense attention, on April 3, the new Hong Kong Film Awards was held at the Grand Theater of the Hong Kong Cultural Center. Because the distance was too far, most of the fans couldn't rush to the scene. Fortunately, there was a live video site in mainland China. Everyone stayed in front of the computer early, waiting for their idols to appear.

The scene was lively. Two hours in advance, the venue was crowded with media and fans. When the red carpet officially started, all kinds of cheers and screams broke through the sky, and their madness could be felt through the screen.

A car stopped in front of the red carpet, and stars flying from all over the world dressed up to attend, and the flashing lights kept flashing, dazzling people's eyes. With the appearance of various big names, the atmosphere was set off one climax after another, but even so, when the crew of "Liar" appeared, there was still a greater commotion than before.

There has long been a discussion on the Internet that today Du Wenhan, Fan Sijun and Jiang Yi have all come to Hong Kong. This is also a gathering that the three leading actors rarely do during the promotional period. As the only heroine, who will Fan Sijun walk the red carpet with?

The black car door opened, and Fan Sijun, dressed in a glazed white dress, walked slowly onto the red carpet, holding the hand of Director Zuo Jiahao. Different from the glamorous and enchanting in the movies, Fan Yinghou is always a bit aloof and aloof, even her smile is measured. She has an elegant demeanor and gently waves to both sides. In contrast, Zuo Jiahao smiled happily, and when he went up the stairs, he helped her straighten her skirt in a gentlemanly manner, which caused another click of shutters at the scene.

Following them was Du Wenhan in a white suit. He seemed to be in a good mood, blowing kisses to both sides from time to time. The female companion next to him is not a member of the crew of "Liar", but his girlfriend Han Meng who is also a star. Han Meng has no work shortlisted this time, so he did not expect to make a special trip to accompany him on the red carpet.

The two were intimate, and Du Wenhan even kissed his girlfriend's hair lightly, murdering countless films again.

The reporter was busy, and suddenly heard another wave of screams, "Ah—"

On the live screen, Jiang Yi pushed open the car door and walked onto the red carpet alone.

He was wearing a Dior Homme pure black suit today. This brand of suits has always been very slim, but he dressed well. His narrow waist and slender legs were wrapped in smooth lines. Different from the elation of others, his expression was indifferent, his eyes fell on the crowd, a bit self-controlled, but also a bit seductive in his self-control, quite a kind of melancholy and decadent vampire lover. Because of the style of the dress, his unaccompanied not only does not appear lonely, but has a kind of strange nobility, as if it should be like this, no one can stand by his side.

The fans screamed non-stop, and some people pushed forward, so that the railing almost fell down. The security guard rushed to maintain order, and the scene was in chaos.

Seeing this, Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows, and suddenly put his fingers up to his lips, hissing softly. The surroundings were so noisy, and they obviously didn't hear his voice, but because of this action, the fans seemed to have been stabbed, and most of them fell silent at that moment.

Jiang Yi hooked his lips and finally showed his first smile tonight.

Even through the screen, the impact of this beauty is too great. Jiang Yi's fan group is full of ghosts and wolves. Everyone shares beautiful pictures from various angles, crying and saying that his brother tonight is so good-looking!

After shouting for an unknown amount of time, someone suddenly noticed that there was another person who remained silent, "Gulu Gulu, what are you doing? Are you watching the live broadcast?!"

It took a while to say: "I... am not watching the live broadcast..."

Everyone was furious, "You didn't watch the live broadcast! You don't really love brother! On behalf of the organization, I want to expel your fan membership!"

After a pause, he asked again, "You didn't watch the live broadcast, so where are you?"

This time, after a longer interval, Jian Wei finally replied: "I'm in Hong Kong."

Crowd: "..."

That's right, she didn't watch the live broadcast because she was there!

Jian Wei put away her mobile phone, and the man who killed thousands of girls on the red carpet just now has embraced her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, "What are you looking at? I'm so pretty, don't look at other people."

Jian Wei: "..."

She took a deep breath, and then mustered up the courage to turn around. She personally chose this dress for him. When she picked it, she just thought it looked good, but Jiang Yi smiled and said, "So Xiaowei, you like this kind of dress."

Jian Wei didn't know it at the time, but now she realizes her innocence!

This dress is so terrible!

Heart beating non-stop, Jian Wei stared at him for a long time, finally reached out to cover his face, and said solemnly: "You are not allowed to commit crimes on the basis of beauty!"

Jiang Yi was taken aback for a moment, then laughed lowly.

This is the backstage, Jiang Yi's temporary lounge, everyone else has gone out, only the two of them.

Jiang Yi cleared his throat, "Okay, in order to thank Ms. Jian for taking the time to come to Hong Kong and accompany me to attend the awards ceremony, I will restrain myself and try not to act on beauty."

Jian Wei did come here on time. She is very busy with her studies, and she originally had to have a meeting with her tutor today, but in the end she tried her best to spare a day. Her flight to Hong Kong was an hour later than Jiang Yi's, and she had to go back to Beijing tomorrow morning. Lin Hao teased her that she was so affectionate and moved by this kind of tossing.

"It's good that you know. Who made me a model girlfriend? Even Du Wenhan has a girlfriend to accompany him. I can't make you lose to him!"

When she mentioned Du Wenhan, Jiang Yi's expression changed slightly, and he had heard about the comments on the Internet, but there were many things that netizens didn't understand.

Jiang Yi didn't know before that when the film studio submitted the best actor, he and Du Wenhan were both submitted. Originally, I just wanted to be more sure, one of the two would always be selected, but I didn't expect that both of them were shortlisted.

The film crew was very happy, but Jiang Yi was not too happy.

He never thought that he could win the best actor with his first work. Although there are such examples, they are too few. What's more, the Best Actor of this year's Golden Statue Awards, the most likely to win the championship is not him or Du Wenhan, but someone else.

Ding Jiawen, a Hong Kong-born actor, has debuted for ten years and has been nominated for the Hong Kong Film Awards twice, but unfortunately he did not win. Last year, the movie "The Empty House" he starred in had a mediocre box office, but it reflected many social problems in Hong Kong and caused a sensation. The Academy Awards still has certain exclusions. There is such an actor in the local area who meets the requirements, and the possibility that the organizing committee will choose him is too great.

To sum up, Jiang Yi's goal has always been to get the best new actor, but now, the plan has been disrupted.

A few days ago, He Fangming said: "Du Wenhan's team has made a lot of moves recently."

There were only three things, probably because Jiang Yi stole the limelight too many times, and even lost the chance of "You Fox", Du Wenhan was finally aroused. This time at the Golden Statue Awards, he will go all out to get back his place.

"His agent has used a lot of contacts, let alone the best actor, they will make you not get a single award."

Jiang Yi had a bit of a headache. People like Du Wenhan were really hard to deal with when they were serious.

Jian Wei observed his expression, of course she also knew about the situation, and this was the real reason why she had to come to the scene. If Du Wenhan really succeeded, at least she would stay by his side.

Just as he was about to say something, there was a knock on the door. Lin Hao poked his head in, but closed his eyes, "Didn't do anything? I can watch, can I?"

Because Jiang Yi and Jian Wei are too sweet, others often feel that they can't look directly at them, and Lin Hao, a single dog, has been abused time and time again. As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance. Lin Hao will make fun of them whenever he gets the chance, regardless of whether it will anger the boss or lose his job.

Jian Wei was a little embarrassed, Jiang Yikun glanced at him, Lin Hao smiled and said: "It's almost time, let's go ahead."

The two stood up. Seeing that he was about to leave, Jian Wei couldn't help but held Jiang Yi's hand, "Actually, no matter what the result is, just think about it. For many years, the majestic film star, but you are a newcomer in the film industry to force you to use all kinds of tricks. I think he lost in this alone, and he is the one who is ashamed!"

Jiang Yi took it for granted, "It makes sense. And if a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it. People who are too outstanding will always encounter these things. I have long been used to it." After a pause, he looked at Jian Wei, "This feeling, You must understand it too, right?"

Jian Wei, a gifted girl who was admitted to University A at the age of 15, looked at him for a while, then nodded deeply, "Yes, I understand very well."

Lin Hao: "..." Can you abuse a dog like this? !

Jiang Yi and Jian Wei didn't sit together. She was arranged to go to the audience area. The seat Jiang Yi specially chose had a good view, but it didn't attract much attention. Jiang Yi watched her go first, and then he got to his seat. Before sitting down, he saw Du Wenhan next to him.

He was playing with his mobile phone, and when he noticed the movement, he raised his head and met Jiang Yi's eyes. When the crew met today, they met. At that time, they just greeted each other briefly. Now that there is no one else, Du Wenhan smiled slightly, "Good evening, I wish Mr. Jiang the award in advance."

Jiang Yi nodded and smiled, "Thank you, and I wish Teacher Du good luck."

He sat down next to Du Wenhan, and neither of them spoke. This time, "The Liar" was nominated for 8 awards in total, surrounded by people from the crew, but because of the atmosphere between the two, they fell into a strange silence for a while.

Fortunately, the award ceremony will begin soon.

This time the awards ceremony was hosted by two-time Academy Award winner Ding Zhixiong and the famous host Gao Wanyi as the master of ceremonies. The two cooperated tacitly, coupled with the adjustment of various programs, the atmosphere of the party was quite pleasant.

The first to be awarded is the best new actor. Two award presenters came to the stage. After the routine jokes, the big screen began to play the recorded video, "The best new actor of the XX Golden Image Award is Lin Yanling "A Sea of Women's Hearts"; Cha Xiaoshi's "Empty House"; Ge Jiahao's "Gun God"; Jiang Yi's "Liar"; Xia Qing's "Love Code."

The award presenter read: "The winner of this year's Academy Award for Best New Actor is—"

Even though it was easy to say before, Jiang Yi was still a little nervous when things came to an end. He accidentally glanced to the side, but was surprised to find that Du Wenhan was actually looking at him with a smile on his lips.

Before I had time to think, a voice came from my ear, "—Cha Xiaoshi "The Empty House", congratulations!"

At that moment, Du Wenhan's smile widened, making it extremely dazzling.

The audience applauded, and Hong Kong actress Cha Xiaoshi, a model-turned-actor, came to the stage amidst the sound of music, accepted her trophy, and thanked her tearfully.

"What a pity." Du Wenhan said.

Jiang Yi pursed his lips tightly and did not speak.

Jian Wei only felt relieved, indescribably annoyed. After worrying for so long, Du Wenhan succeeded in the end!

She looked over the crowd and saw Jiang Yi who was sitting a few rows in front. He still straightened his back and applauded with the people around him, showing no emotion at all.

Jian Wei was in a complicated mood, but her phone trembled, and Jiang Yi sent a WeChat message, "Okay, now we can concentrate on chatting."

Jian Wei, "..."

She knew that Jiang Yi was afraid that she would be too disappointed, so she felt even more distressed, obviously he should be the one who was sad.

She took a deep breath and said cooperatively: "No, there are so many celebrities here to watch, I don't have time to chat with you."

She waited for a while after sending, and was surprised to find that Jiang Yi actually replied a voice message.

The man said with a smile in his voice, "It's really ruthless."

Jian Wei: ... You really know how to play.

Jiang Yi's position will be in the mirror from time to time, and it would be bad if he was photographed playing with his mobile phone, so the two of them only said these few words and stopped going any further.

In the following part, Jian Wei was a little absent-minded. There were many nominations for the crew of "Liar", but the actual award was delayed. The best cinematography went to "The Empty House", and the best editing went to someone else. As for the best actress, Fan Sijun only won the golden actress two years ago, and this time he came to accompany her. Sure enough, Sang Tiantian, the heroine of "A Sea of Women's Heart", was finally crowned, pushing the atmosphere of tonight to its first climax.

At this time, many people were surprised to find that, as a hit movie, "The Liar" never got a chance to be on stage? !

Realizing this embarrassing situation, Jian Wei became more and more angry. In any case, Du Wenhan and Jiang Yi are in the same crew, and Jiang Yi's award is also the glory of the whole movie. Does Du Wenhan really have the ability to desperately make his work fail? !

Or does he think he can definitely win the best actor? !

The moment this thought flashed through her mind, Jian Wei suddenly opened her eyes wide. She also understands some hidden rules of the entertainment industry. Awards ceremonies like this are rarely dominated by one family. This award is given to this movie, and that award must be given to another one, otherwise the game will not be able to continue. Tonight's "Liar" has such a dismal harvest, is it also in Du Wenhan's plan

He messed up Jiang Yi's best new actor, not only embarrassing him, but also paving the way for his own actor? !

At this moment, when it was time to award the best actor, two award presenters came to the stage, holding envelopes with the names of the winners in their hands.

Jian Wei realized that she was being irrational, and completely forgot that Du Wenhan was a member of "Liar", and said in her heart: "Please, Jiang Yi doesn't take it, and Du Wenhan must not take it!"

Ding Jiawen! Tonight I stand Ding Jiawen!

Jiang Yi sat in his seat and looked at the stage.

He also thought of what Jian Wei thought of, and much earlier than her, which is why he had no hope for the best actor from the beginning. In fact, He Fangming also has a lot of contacts in the circle, if he really wants to operate, he may not lose to Du Wenhan. But they all feel that it is not yet time to do that. This is only his first movie, and using this method is too dangerous and too eager for quick success.

What's more, everything he gained in "The Liar" relied on his real strength, and he didn't bother to become first-class with Du Wenhan in the end.

In this way, he felt more relaxed, completely different from when he was waiting for the best new actor just now.

The video began to play on the big screen, and the voice-over was solemn, "The nominees for Best Actor at the XX Academy Awards are—Gong Wenfei's "Gun God"; Qin Yue's "Woman's Heart Sea"; Jiang Yi's "Liar"; Ding Jiawen's " The Empty House"; Du Wenhan's "The Liar."

The faces of five candidates appeared on the big screen, and Jiang Yi was not surprised to find that he was the one who smiled the most calmly.

The award presenter opened the envelope, "The winner of this year's Academy Award for Best Actor is—"

Ding Jiawen looked forward with a tense expression. Du Wenhan was better than him, but he couldn't control his tense body.

He had prepared for so long just for tonight, as long as he wins Best Actor, he will be able to avenge his shame, and no one will ever say that he is just Jiang Yi's foil.

As long as he takes it, the two movie kings will be added, and Jiang Yi will not be qualified to compete with him in another five years.

As long as he takes...

"—Jiang Yi, congratulations!"

The audience was silent for a second, and then thunderous applause broke out!

The faces of the other four people were cut off on the big screen, leaving only Jiang Yi. His expression was a little stunned, as if he hadn't thought of it at all, and he stood up after a few seconds. However, his first reaction when he got up was not to accept the congratulations from the people next to him, but to look behind him.

The auditorium was far away, full of cheering crowds, like a vast sea. His gaze was fixed somewhere, as if he had found his own boat, and after a while, he smiled slightly.

Then he turned around. Zuo Jiahao stood up early, Jiang Yi hugged him, Director Zuo smiled and said, "Congratulations, you deserve this award."

His tone implied deep meaning. Jiang Yi was already suspicious, so he couldn't help but said: "You..."

""Liar" should have a grand prize. Instead of Du Wenhan, the organizing committee would rather choose you. I hope it's you too."

Looking at Zuo Jiahao's smile, Jiang Yi finally confirmed that it was what he thought. Du Wenhan threw a rock at his own foot, and even angered Zuo Jiahao, making him push him.

He took a deep breath and said from the bottom of his heart, "Thank you."

Du Wenhan was also standing beside him, and it could be seen that he was trying his best to restrain himself, and forced a smile on Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi was also laughing, he opened his arms, the brothers seemed to hug him, and patted his back hard.

Then, he whispered in his ear, "What a pity."

I will return the original words.

Under the bright light, Jiang Yi could clearly see that Du Wenhan's expression instantly became extremely ugly.

In the applause and music of the audience, Jiang Yi strode onto the stage. The award presenter gave him the trophy and the certificate, which were heavy, and he held them in his hands, finally feeling a trace of truth.

With a lot of emotion in his heart, Jiang Yi stood in front of the microphone and calmed down for a few seconds before saying: "I believe everyone can see that I didn't expect to get this award at all. When I got off the plane today, I thought it was the biggest harvest of this trip. , is an authentic Hong Kong-style supper.”

There was good-natured laughter from the audience, and Jiang Yi went on to say: "Here, I would like to thank my family, my company and agent, director Zuo Jiahao, and all the front and backstage work of "Liar" Staff, without you, I would not be on this stage. Of course, I would also like to thank the Organizing Committee of the Academy Awards, without you, I would not be on this stage... "

Everyone laughed and applauded, Jiang Yi held the trophy tightly and paused for a moment.

At this point in the speech, it seems that it should be over, but he leaned closer to the microphone again and said: "Finally, I have one more person to thank, and that is myself.

"When I took on "Liar", I faced an important decision in my career and life. At that time, there were many voices asking me to give up, to give up "Liar", and another thing that was extremely important to me. But I didn't want to. I am a person with few desires, and I rarely have things that I strongly want to have, so once I encounter them, I don’t want to give up. I have never regretted my original decision, but tonight, I have to thank myself at the time. It was his Courage and persistence are what made me what I am today."

Jiang Yi looked down the stage. The lights were too strong, and he could only see people in full costumes, with rich clothes and flashy eyes, but he couldn't find the person he really wanted to see. But it's alright.

He smiled slightly. "Thank you. I know you saw that."

Jian Wei stood in the crowd and covered her mouth, but couldn't stop the tears from falling.

She has been like this ever since she heard his name. On the night of the "Liar" celebration party, he told her that he hoped to receive more professional appreciation, and tonight, he finally got his wish.

Her young man, standing in the light of all, enjoys the glory that belongs to him.

And she was so lucky to witness everything.

The stars are shining brightly, and the audience cheers.

In the eyes of everyone, the young actor held up the trophy high.

Such high-spirited, like a boy many years ago, the world is so big, it's all under his feet.
