Chapter 38 The Movie King (End)
Director Zhang Yang covered his face tightly, his body trembling.
He only felt that the air around him was sucked dry in an instant, and the world became illusory.It wasn't until Song Shuwen patted him on the shoulder vigorously that Director Zhang Yang let go of his hand as if waking up from a dream, feeling pulled back to the real world again.
The guests clapped their hands one after another, watching the dark and thin man staggering onto the stage to accept the award, with more tolerant and surprised smiles on his face.They didn't know the origin of the screenwriter and director, they just felt that it was as if he had fallen from the sky and won an award directly.
"Thank you!"
Director Zhang Yang bowed, took the trophy from the guests, stood in front of the stage, and watched the lights under the stage shine.
He lowered his head slightly, and said into the microphone with a choked voice: "I knew a long time ago that I was no longer young, and then I began to feel panic, wondering if I was just like boiling a frog in warm water, living my life in a daze, forever I can’t realize my movie dream.”
"When I first entered the society, I thought that I wanted to make a movie, I wanted a big production, and I wanted to be on par with a certain director. But when I was 30 years old, everyone basically learned to accept their fate, either becoming an advertising director, or acting like I also go to make documentaries. There are many directors like me, few of them know, maybe no one will affirm you once in your whole life.”
"So I was very excited to receive this award. The first thought in my mind was that I was affirmed. The second thought was that all my films have won awards, so I should be able to sell them at a good price so that I would not lose money. Right. In the end, I felt that when I have children in the future, I can brag to them with a trophy—your father has been a director, a screenwriter, and won an award.”
"Wow hoo hoo!"
The audience applauded loudly, and most of them were amused by Director Zhang Yang's honest speech.Everyone has been immersed in the entertainment industry for many years, and has long been accustomed to the exaggeration and hypocrisy on stage. They always have a good impression of those who rarely speak their minds.
After a while of singing and dancing, Mr. William, the last best actor winner, and his partner came to the stage, ready to present the most anticipated and most unpredictable actor award.
"Before I went on stage, the gentlemen of the jury stopped me and asked me to say something. Because he wanted you to understand how difficult it is for the jury to select a best actor."
Mr. William shrugged, "The selection of the best actor this year is the most intense in the history of the film festival. Among our twelve judges, some supported this, some supported that and that, and the result was three Candidates, unexpectedly became a four to four tie."
"Everyone had no choice but to vote by raising their hands for the second time, and the result was still a tie. The third time, it was still a tie, and the fourth time, it was still a tie. It was not until the fifth round of voting that the decision was made [-]-[-]-[-] And it turned out... well, that's all I'm going to say."
After adjusting the atmosphere, Mr. William handed the envelope to his female partner. Her partner quickly opened the envelope and took a look, showing a bright smile.
At this time, on the big screen, the images of the three candidates were shown, each with their own performance.
One of them is a veteran actor who has been in the film festival for a long time. He has been through the rivers and lakes and is the most calm. He has won many top honors, and the burden in his heart has long been put down.
Another young actor smiled easily on the surface, but his hands were tightly clenched, and his veins were already clenched.
Song Shuwen was 90.00% not looking forward to it, mixed with [-]% expectation. His nomination was a supernatural event.
Director Zhang Yang worked hard to keep smiling, and Li Yuqing also worked hard to keep calm, but Song Shuwen caught a glimpse of his legs shaking violently, so he couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder to make him relax.
At this time, Song Shuwen himself doesn't know what state he is in now, he is eager and longing, and it doesn't matter if he says it doesn't matter, it's rather hazy.
"The winner of the Best Actor is..." The female partner held the envelope and stretched out her voice.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
The lights of the audience hit Song Shuwen at the same time, making his small area as bright as day.
"Congratulations, Song Shuwen!" Seeing this scene, the female partner stopped being tricky and immediately revealed the answer.
……
"boom!"
Just like the dark clouds recede, the sky is clear, and the whole world is clear and bright.
The decibels of the scene instantly increased, and Song Shuwen stood up amidst cheers and hugged Li Yuqing, followed by Director Zhang Yang.
"Let's go!"
Li Yuqing helped him straighten his suit, and then patted Song Shuwen's arm lightly. His eyes were red, and he looked even more excited than Song Shuwen.
Song Shuwen stepped onto the stage to receive the trophy, then took half a step back, straightening his back as if on the top of a mountain.
Director Zhang Yang was so excited that his voice was hoarse, he was happy.
Li Yuqing is the simplest, he loves it.
Song Shuwen has always been a small actor to make a living, and he had to fight hard when he met unreliable actors. Finally, he took a role where he could be the leading role, but turned around and the crew was disbanded. In the end, he gave away all his own for a "Wicked Man" Acting skills, even soul and life are involved, and I almost can't get out of the play...
Others don't know these things, but Li Yuqing knows everything.
So when Song Shuwen's name was announced, Li Yuqing maintained a steady smile on the surface, but his eyes were already red.
"What I want to say first is that this movie belongs to our crew of "The Wicked". Without director Zhang Yang asking me to make this movie, there would be no award. I am very grateful to him."
The voice fell to the ground, and after two seconds, Song Shuwen bowed forward and saluted the audience at a ninety-degree angle.
There was applause from the audience, with appreciation and jealousy.
But no matter what, they are all witnessing with their own eyes how an unknown little actor is crowned actor.
After more than ten seconds, he waited for the momentum to subside, and Fang took the microphone and said:
"I didn't expect to get this award at all before, so I didn't prepare a thank you speech, so I just...just talk about it."
"My first job after graduation was a pet doctor, but because of a parrot that can imitate a human cough and an agent, I changed careers and became an actor. When I first entered the industry, I played tricks every day. The drama that impressed me the most was "Mutants vs. New Energy Autobots"... I acted in New Energy."
"Ah……"
The people below couldn't help chuckling.
"Later, I filmed "Jiangcheng Wharf". At that time, I still didn't know what a movie was, what a real performance was, and I just regarded it as a job that required more heart than playing tricks. But I met Li Yuqing in the crew, and I I still remember that scene: the three of us were sitting in the wharf office in Jiangcheng, with a dim lamp above our heads, surrounded by thick river mist and blowing wind, not far away was the Chu River that had been flowing for thousands of years , Li Yuqing danced alone under the dim light. I felt my whole body all at once, the kind from the inside out. It’s hard to describe, like sleepwalking after walking a long way, suddenly someone wakes you up, Let you see the world again."
"Since "Jiangcheng Wharf", I have fallen in love with this feeling, obsessed with skills, obsessed with exercises, obsessed with beautiful things. I even thought that this is the reason for acting, and I planned to follow it. But fortunately, I ran into The Wicked again."
His tone was low, and he said: "There was a scene when we were filming "The Wicked". We just got off the scaffolding. Not long after, the wind picked up and the scaffolding collapsed. A worker fell down and died on the spot. And within a few hours Before, we were eating together, talking and laughing...a life disappeared in an instant, and our entire crew was on the verge of collapse, and it took a long time to return to normal."
The people below were completely silent, listening to this behind-the-scenes story carefully.
"During that time, I had a very painful time. As long as I closed my eyes, I seemed to be able to see blood on the ground. Then, I suddenly felt that my previous thoughts were too naive."
Song Shuwen faced the audience, suddenly made a laughing expression, and said: "You may be happy in the play."
In the next moment, the laughter turned into sadness.
"You can be sad, too."
Then, sadness is replaced by happiness.
"You may enjoy love."
In another second, happiness turned into pain.
"You may also experience hopelessness."
Song Shuwen vividly made different emotions only by facial expressions, "To do this, it is not only a matter of facial expressions or movements, but to feel, ponder, experience, and respect every life that has lived a splendid life. I think That’s the most wonderful thing about being an actor.”
After finishing speaking, he put his feet together, put his hands behind his back, bent his waist forward, and saluted again at a ninety-degree angle.
There was still admiration and jealousy in the audience, but they all looked at Song Shuwen standing on the stage seriously.
Because standing there is an actor.
