After leaving behind a sentence that could have been used directly as a title to attract countless readers to click in, the person in charge left with a gloomy face without even looking back.
The reporters wanted to ask more questions, but were stopped by the security guards. The assistant behind the person in charge stopped and said, "That's all for today. The organizing committee will hold a press conference at nine o'clock tomorrow morning to give a detailed explanation. If you have any objections to this year's Eleanor Award, please be there on time tomorrow."
Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for reporters to turn a blind eye to big news that happened so close to them. However, the attitude of the organizing committee is now clear - they want to take this opportunity to thoroughly rectify the deformed film and television industry!
Anyway, there is no way to escape this "earthquake-level" news. Instead of nagging about it and annoying people, it is better to cooperate with the organizing committee. Maybe you will get big news tomorrow.
Thinking of this, the reporters stopped pestering him and let him go.
"Now we don't have to worry about the headlines for the whole week," one of the reporters said with a smile, "The would-be best actor and best actress was mocked in public for not having acting skills as good as those of a paper man... Tsk tsk, I don't need to imagine that once this headline is released, our newspapers will definitely sell out."
"It's more than just out of stock," the reporter also seemed very happy: "When the time comes, we will interview the actors and directors, as well as the attitude of the organizing committee, and then dig into the details of the behind-the-scenes of the nominated films. I'm afraid this news will be enough for us to consume for a week."
"If you ask me, the organizing committee did a good thing this time. Our film and television industry should have been cleaned up long ago."
"Hey, I hope this rectification can have some effect. I am really tired of having to watch bad movies in order to write articles..."
Several reporters were chatting casually as they followed him out. As they walked out of the Quanming Theater, one of them suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, did the person in charge just mention something... the Best Animated Short Film Award? What was the name of the director who won the award?"
… Wait, come to think of it, it seems like they missed a key character in their interview!
The reporters looked at each other.
Originally, animation has never been a highly anticipated award in the Eleanor Awards, let alone animated short films. But who knew that this time the Eleanor Awards would go against the grain and put an animation director in the center of the pack
"What are you still standing there for? Go find it! Do you still want some big news?"
This sentence woke the reporters present up from their dreams. They stopped chatting and quickened their pace, rushing towards the Quanming Grand Theater. However, their action was obviously too late - the huge Quanming Grand Theater was already empty, so where was Mu Suxing
—
Mu Suxing originally wanted to go back to the hotel to eat.
He had a good idea. Going back to the hotel at this time, which would be almost 9:30, might be a bit of a stretch to have dinner. Although he didn't want steak or hotpot, a barbecue, spicy crayfish, and a good beer would be a good choice.
However-
"Eleanor dinner?"
"Of course, you wouldn't be unaware of this, right?" Ye Changlin's helpless voice came from the other end of the phone: "You are also one of the winners. Regardless of how long you will stay, why don't you at least come over and show up?"
Of course, Muxiuxing knew what the Eleanor Dinner was.
Simply put, this so-called Eleanor Dinner is an opportunity for industry professionals to communicate. The dinner has extremely high requirements for admission. In addition to the winners of previous Eleanor awards, they must also be well-known names in the film, television and animation circles. Ordinary people with little traffic cannot enter.
He originally thought that he most likely wouldn't win the award, so he hadn't considered this so-called dinner. But now that he has won the award, it would be nice to go and take a look.
The venue of the dinner was set at a place ten minutes' drive from Quanming Grand Theater. Mu Suxing told Qin Sheng about it, then he hailed a taxi and went directly to the dinner venue.
When Mu Suxing came in under the guidance of the service staff, the dinner was already in full swing. People gathered in groups of three or four. Relaxing and beautiful instrumental music was playing in the venue. Mu Suxing observed and found that most people seemed to be in a good mood and did not seem to be affected by the award ceremony at all.
"Of course," Ye Changlin said with a smile as he led him to a corner of the banquet. "The Eleanor banquet is not a banquet that anyone can attend. Anyone who gets angry about tonight's awards ceremony will probably not get a ticket here."
He paused, thinking of the animated short film he had seen from the judging panel, and said with some regret: "Are you really not considering acting, or switching to the film and television industry? With your talent, whether you are an actor or a director, you will definitely be able to..."
Before Ye Changlin finished speaking, he heard a low but clear cough behind him. He raised his eyebrows, without turning his head, pretending not to hear it, and continued: "I'm serious, Xiaomu, let's not say anything else, as long as you are willing to be my leading actor, I can guarantee that you will be the only leading actor of the Eleanor Award next year!"
He said this smoothly, but it didn't end well, because someone elbowed him from behind and said, "Ye Changlin, are you done yet? Why do you have to switch careers to become an actor director when you are a good animation director? If you have nothing to do, why don't you think about the investment in your next movie first, and stop thinking about poaching talents from our animation industry all day long? Don't you have any shame?"
Mu Xuxing looked up.
The man in front of him looked a bit old, but his face did not show oldness. Instead, he had a spirit that young people did not have. He was handsome and elegant. When he saw Mu Suxing looking at him, he smiled slightly, took the initiative to extend his hand and introduced himself: "I have been thinking about meeting you before, and now I finally meet you in person. Let me introduce myself, I am Xia Yongyuan."
Mu Xuxing's heart moved slightly.
He knows this person.
Xia Yongyuan is the vice chairman of the Blue Star Artists Association, one of the organizers of the Cultural Affairs Bureau Media Arts Festival, a three-time winner of the Eleanor Award for Best Animated Feature Film, and a member of the Eleanor Award for Best Animated Feature Film and Best Animated Short Film jury.
Unlike ordinary animation directors who seek fame or have only commercial achievements, Xia Yongyuan is a genuine animation master. The animations he created are still a long-lasting teaching model for animation majors in various art universities. It was also he who first introduced film-style shooting methods into animation shooting in the early days of animation development, which brought the entire animation industry to a new level.
He is a true master.
Muxuxing also smiled. He did not hide his joy at seeing the other party, but he also said generously: "Mr. Xia, I have heard of your name for a long time. It is my honor to meet you."
The result of the meeting between the two animation directors was that Ye Changlin, as a film director, was completely left aside. He listened for a while bored, unwilling to be left feeling sorry for. Seeing that Mu Suxing was talking about the topic of leaving for Xingning City tomorrow, he quickly interjected, "Then you better be careful, don't be accidentally surrounded by reporters and delay your flight."
Mu Suxing was slightly stunned and asked in confusion: "Reporter?"
Seeing his bewildered expression, what else did Ye Changlin not understand? "Have you forgotten the accident at the awards ceremony tonight?" Ye Changlin reminded him.
"I remember," Mu Suxing said without hesitation, "but isn't this something that happens in your film and television industry? It should have nothing to do with me, right?"
Xia Yongyuan immediately smiled with satisfaction - yes, that's right, it's "your film and television industry"'s business, and it has nothing to do with our animation industry!
We in the animation industry firmly refuse to be associated with any weird groups!
Seeing the two people in front of him both with expressions that said "it has nothing to do with me", especially Xia Yongyuan who was laughing without disguising himself, Ye Changlin snorted coldly: "Why do you think the organizing committee is so stubborn this time? They just said they won't give out the awards, so they won't give out the awards?"
"Why?"
Mu Suxing was slightly startled and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
"The judges of the organizing committee unanimously agreed that the acting skills of the male and female actors nominated this year are not even as good as the paper figures in your animated short film, so we simply don't want any of them."
Thinking of the problems that the Blue Star film and television industry has always had, Ye Changlin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Guess what our chairman said in the interview today? He said, 'How can actors who can't even perform as well as the paper man be qualified to compete for the best actor and actress in Eleanor?' If the news gets out now, public opinion will explode."
Mu Suxing recalled the acting skills of this year's best actor and actress, and nodded in agreement: "They are indeed not as good as my paper figures."
Ye Changlin: …
He looked at Mu Xuxing's serious expression and felt more helpless in his heart. Although what the other party said was true, why did these words sound so... frustrating
He sighed and wanted to say something, but Xia Yongyuan on the other end also reacted. He frowned and said unhappily, "What on earth is Shen Er thinking? If he doesn't want to give out the award, then don't give out the award. Why drag Xiao Mu into this?"
not good!
Ye Changlin's heart skipped a beat and he thought something was wrong.
Everyone knows that the vice chairman of the Artists Association has always been famous for protecting his own people. Shen Er's words were certainly an affirmation of Mu Suxing, but on the other hand, it also pushed Mu Suxing to the forefront. The media of Blue Star has always been trying to put down and praise highly, and when tomorrow's newspapers and magazines come out, they will probably praise Mu Suxing as much as they put down traffic stars.
If Mu Suxing was really an actor, that would be fine, but he is just an animation director after all. Drag a director who is doing animation quietly into the mess of the entertainment industry, and he is a new director that Xia Yongyuan values very much. With Xia Yongyuan's temper, how could he not be angry with the organizing committee
During his silence, Xia Yongyuan began to feel guilty. His expression suddenly darkened and he stared at Ye Changlin without blinking. "Tell me clearly what Shen Er meant by this? It's his own business to clean up the film and television industry. What's the point of dragging Xiao Mu into this?"
Mu Suxing understood what Xia Yongyuan meant.
The entertainment industry is different from the animation industry. The former is a mixed bag, especially the fans of popular stars are always crazy. If there is a real commotion, it will be a disruption to Mu Xuxing's career, among other things. Public opinion seems to be something light and easy to talk about, but if it is really suppressed, it can also easily ruin a person.
only…
Seeing that Ye Changlin was so angry that he didn't dare to say a word, Mu Suxing felt a little warm in his heart, but he also laughed in silence.
If it were any other young director, it would probably be difficult for him to calmly continue making animations in such a critical position, but he is a man with two lifetimes of experience after all, and he is not a fresh-faced young man. Of course, his rhythm and plans will not be disrupted by such an accident.
"It's okay. I don't rely on traffic and fans to make a living anyway." Mu Suxing is very open-minded.
Huaying is no longer the fledgling small company it once was. Its first two hit animations have also allowed Huaying to accumulate a large number of regular audiences. These foundations cannot be easily shaken by fans of traffic stars and hired internet trolls.
The fans of Huaying are not fools, how is it possible that they can't even see such common practices in the entertainment industry
If an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. With Huaying's current strength and status, it is really not a false promise.
He said it lightly, as if he really didn't take it to heart. Xia Yongyuan couldn't tell whether he was confident or ignorant. "Have you ever thought that after this incident, the public will be more demanding when watching your animation works in the future?"
Muxuxing blinked, looking a little puzzled: "Which aspect?"
Ye Changlin gave an example: "For example, this time, your performance in "The Gift of the Magi" was better than the real person, and the traffic fans might use the fact that your next work is not as good as "The Gift of the Magi" as an excuse to blacken you."
"That's impossible," Mu Suxing shook his head and said, "My next animation is for commercial children's animation. If they really want to compete with the paper figures in a children's animation, then I can only wish them success."
Xia Yongyuan had a stern face at first, but after hearing this, his expression suddenly changed and he almost laughed.
Ye Changlin was unyielding: "What if you are making artistic animation?"
"That's even more impossible," Mu Suxing said with a smile, "Director Ye, you don't think that all artistic animations must be performed at the level of The Gift of the Magi to be considered good works, right?"
Not all animations have to achieve Oscar-level performances - in fact, it's just the opposite. For some artistic animations filled with metaphors, if the characters' performances are too realistic, it will only have the opposite effect.
The reason why "The Gift of the Magi" is an exception is that it is a realistic animated short film.
As for other art animations, is it funny to require paper people to have high acting skills in a normal art animation
If someone really tried to discredit him by starting from these aspects, Mu Suxing wouldn't mind giving the other person a good lesson, and at the same time popularizing some basic common sense about animation to the public - it just so happened that Huaying's public relations department had been established, so he could use it as a training ground for new employees.
