Chapter 1637 Awarding

Awards were awarded one after another.

Everyone in the audience felt drowsy listening to the host's beautiful Italian and the occasional words of English spoken by the guests.

No way, I can barely understand a few words in English, but Italian is like listening to a bible, I don’t understand it at all.

The crew members were all a little sleepy, only a few people such as Zhu Xiaoce and Lu Zhiyao were still watching expectantly.

Having gone through the experience last time, this time everyone knows that anyone who is notified to come to the award ceremony will basically receive an award.

It’s just a bigger or smaller problem.

However, judging from everyone’s expectations for the movie "The Future You Choose", winning a small award is equivalent to not winning it.

You still have to win a significant award, such as the Best Actor or the Golden Lion Award, to be considered a historic breakthrough for everyone.

Before coming, the crew also gained some knowledge about the Venice Film Festival.

This is the oldest and oldest film festival in the world.

As a pioneer of film festivals, the Venice Film Festival has a profound historical heritage and its own cultural core.

To briefly summarize: the Venice Film Festival is more personal and encourages innovation; it encourages bold experiments in audio-visual language; it pays more attention to the ideological nature of films.

In addition, the Venice Film Festival also prefers Asian films and pays more attention to Chinese films. Many Chinese-language films have been favored by the Venice Film Festival, and two of them won the Golden Lion Award for Best Picture. Another director received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Venice Film Festival.

In addition, the Chinese jury also has a certain influence at the Venice Film Festival. After the crew arrived, they also met and communicated with several Chinese judges. Everyone has high expectations for the movie "The Future You Choose". Hopefully he can continue, or even surpass, the success of "A Better Tomorrow."

After all, the two movies have certain similarities in themes and stories, and "The Future You Want" can be seen as a comprehensively improved version of "A Better Tomorrow".

As they passed the awards one by one, the crew yawned and chatted quietly. Because the previous awards are not interesting, and the name "The Future You Choose" did not come to mind.

Huang Sibo also felt bored. After all, only directors and actors would be on stage to receive awards, and it had nothing to do with him as the person in charge.

He came to the film festival purely for fun.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the whole body of Lu Zhiyao, who was sitting on his left, tensed up. Then I heard the second half of the English award speech.

"...forLuZhiyao!"

Although Huang Sibo could hardly hear Lu Zhiyao's name, the pinyin of Lu Zhiyao was printed directly on the big screen.

NowNearly 90% of mainland actors and directors use pinyin for their English names. This can also be regarded as a manifestation of increasing cultural confidence.

And it is particularly important to note that the order of the first name and last name will not be reversed.

The awards received by Lu Zhiyao were also displayed on the big screen.

There is no doubt that it is the best actor. After all, it is impossible for him to win other awards.

Lu Zhiyao had already buttoned up his suit very elegantly and stood up to go on stage.

The crew of "The Future You Choose" immediately became excited and applauded enthusiastically along with the entire audience. Winning this award was really an unexpected surprise.

“If I really won the Best Actor, then I can finally be said to be a real Best Actor!”

“Indeed, the awards I won before were all domestic awards. The weight is still a bit lacking."

"Well, wouldn't it be reasonable for Lu Zhiyao to win the Best Actor award based on his acting in our movie?"

When he came to the stage, he said in Chinese: "First of all, I wish everyone a good evening. This is my first time coming to the Venice Film Festival. I didn't expect to win this award, which makes me feel very honored."

"Special thanks to the jury for this honor. Here, I also want to give special thanks to my director, all the staff, and my fans. This film is a test and a great opportunity for me ..."

After thanking all the important people, Lu Zhiyao changed the subject.

“I would also like to express my special thanks to Mr. Pei, the film’s investor and top producer. For me, Mr. Pei always finds my “Bole” and it is under Mr. Pei’s step-by-step guidance that , I can continue to hone my acting skills through each character, and finally gain global recognition."

"In the movie "The Future You Choose", the acting skills I have accumulated have finally been achieved. The best stage for display. I hope to provide you with more wonderful performances and create more classic characters in the future. Thank you all again."

The translator on the side translated Lu Zhiyao's words. Italian, the audience burst into applause again.

When Lu Zhiyao returned to his seat, the crew members all expressed congratulations, with happy smiles on their faces.

"That's it, the International Best Actor is well-deserved! Once we win this award, it will be enough for us to come to this film festival."

"We do have the best actor. , it will be topical enough when we go back. Just with the actor-like performance and our story, the box office will definitely not be low after we go back."

"It's a worthwhile trip. , It’s a worthwhile trip.”

Everyone circulated Lu Zhiyao’s trophy, and everyone was very satisfied.

After all, although the Best Actor award is a personal honor, it can also be regarded as an honor for the entire crew of the film. After all, without a good story, it is difficult for an actor to win the Best Actor award no matter how hard he performs.

Good acting skills still need to be highlighted by the plot.

The crew’s goal of participating in this film festival has been achieved. After all, he won a more important award like Best Actor, not an inconsequential small award.

After the excitement. The crew fell into a state of weakness.

When the Best Director Award was presented, Zhu Xiaoce straightened his back, but in the end it was not awarded to him, which made him a little disappointed.

Not only because of the failure of his own award, but also because the greater the award in the future, the lower the possibility of winning.

Finally, the award ceremony has reached the final stage. Even the Silver Lion Awards have been awarded, but the name of "The Future You Choose" still has not appeared.

At this time, the mood of the crew was a bit contradictory, a bit like the mood of the employees who did not win a small award during the final award presentation at the annual meeting.

On the one hand, I feel a little guilty, feeling that the biggest award is unlikely to fall on my head like this, but there is also a strong expectation hidden in my heart.

Either it ends hastily like this, or we win a big one. This feeling is so exciting.

For the crew of "The Future You Choose", taking home a Best Actor is considered a pass, and it is a worthwhile trip. But having only this one award is still a bit regretful after all.

After all, the crew members feel that the movie "The Future You Choose" is good in every aspect and can be said to be almost perfect. Even winning the Golden Lion makes sense.

The host said a lot of words in Italian, and then looked at the presenter on the other side of the stage, probably asking him to announce the final prize.

The awarding guest is a naive fat man who is a well-known director with a global reputation.

He said with a smile: "Let me directly name the winning work."

"ZhuXiaoce, for "The future you choose"!"

As soon as this was said, the scene immediately burst into warm applause and cheers.

Zhu Xiaoce's hanging heart finally relaxed, followed by ecstasy that surged into his heart.

The music sounded, and amid the warm applause and cheers of the audience, Zhu Xiaoce calmed down his emotions. Pretending to be very calm, he walked slowly to the stage.

After cordially hugging the gray-haired old judge on the stage, Zhu Xiaoce took the highest award from him - a golden lion cub with wings.

After about two minutes of long photo session, Zhu Xiaoce came to the podium holding the little golden lion. The warm applause gradually subsided.

Zhu Xiaoce adjusted the microphone slightly. He said the award-winning words that he had repeated in his heart many times before.

“First of all, I would like to thank all the judges for their recognition and love for this film. The film "The Future You Choose" is a film that embodies the hard work of the crew.It is a movie full of profound connotations and rich imagination. At the same time, it is rooted in real-life materials and draws valuable nutrients. For me, he is an important part of my entire career as a director, and it is also a milestone for me to break through myself again and challenge myself to a higher artistic level. ”

“I would like to thank the whole crew, my lovely cast. As well as the audience who have always supported us..."

"In addition, all of us on the crew would also like to express our special thanks to Mr. Pei. It is your spiritual connotation that gives this movie its soul. Real events in reality give flesh and blood to the movie. This movie wouldn't be possible without you. ”

“So this award is the result of the joint efforts of all of us, including all fans who support Tenda Group. I would like to share this honor with you. ”

“Thank you everyone! ”

The scene burst into applause again.

At the same time, various news reports were immediately sent back to China. Domestic films won the Golden Lion Award, the highest award at the Venice Film Festival. This is definitely something that deserves to be highlighted in the film industry

……

Sunday, September 8th

As soon as Pei Qian got up, he quickly took his phone to check the status of the Venice Film Festival last night.

His mood was a bit contradictory.

As friends, he actually wanted Zhu Xiaoce and the others. Those who can win small awards, such as Best Actor and Best Director, are actually acceptable.

After all, these people are really making movies down-to-earth, so if they can win awards, they are considered worthy. Well deserved.

As long as it doesn't cause a box office hit, Pei Qian didn't expect to receive several notifications as soon as he turned on his phone. p>

"Domestic film won the Golden Lion Award for Best Film in Venice for the seventh time!"

"Lu Zhiyao won the Best Actor, and the Best Actor was finally crowned"
