Chapter 198 The most popular in the country 2 (please vote, all kinds of votes)

"How could "Lushan Love" win an award?"

"Are you mistaken? How could the people allow this kind of movie to win awards, and let an actress with such a strong capitalist image win the best?"

There were many people from the government, literary and art units, and critics at the scene. Some of the people who had criticized "Romance in Lushan Mountain" were sitting below, with expressions on their faces like "the masses don't make mistakes, you must be operating in the dark."

They were all peers, so Yuan Wenshu didn't want to give in to a harsh argument, so he directly called the editor of "Popular Films" and said, "What's the number of votes for Gong Xue?"

"We never make it public."

"It's okay. This comrade has objections. Just explain."

"Okay! For this Hundred Flowers Award, we received a total of more than 2 million votes. Gong Xue received 1.26 million votes, second place Wang Fuli received 150,000 votes, and third place Zhang Yu received 140,000 votes."

"Look, we are absolutely fair and impartial, and the people's eyes are sharp!" Yuan Wenshu said with a smile.

“The masses may not be right either!”

The man snorted in disgrace.

Yuan Wenshu shook his head. Many old comrades really couldn't change their minds and were still stuck in a few years ago.

As the leader of the Film Association, he is actually very satisfied with this selection. It is precisely because of the high popularity of "Romance in Lushan" that it can attract 2 million votes. If the movie itself is mediocre, the audience's enthusiasm for voting will not be high.

These are all complementary to each other.

For example, Ge You has won the Hundred Flowers Award 4 times and Feng Pants has won 8 times. Isn't it because they contributed the only good-looking commercial movies in the main theme of the year? The audience is only motivated to vote for them.

Gong Xue got off the stage, couldn't wait to return to his seat, and handed him the trophy and certificate.

"Give it to you!"

"What are you doing for me?"

"Without your guidance, I wouldn't be where I am today."

She looked extremely serious, and Chen Qi smiled and said: "It's too early to say now, there is still a prize!"

"Don't think about it, I've already taken one, why would you give me a second one?" she whispered.

"Let's see, if you win, I want to promote you as the most popular actress in the country, and you have to win two awards. As the saying goes, if you make a big effort, you will lose it three times. If you don't win, you will be in trouble.

I have to wait for the next opportunity..."

"Shh!"

He spoke a little louder, and Gong Xue quickly reminded her, speaking even more quietly: "I am already very satisfied with one. How can I have such good luck, and you can give it to me?"

As she said this, her heart was beating loudly and she couldn't help but look forward to it.

After the Hundred Flowers Award was awarded, the Golden Rooster Award followed.

The same person came on stage, took the list, and read it out.

Chen Qi couldn't bear to look directly at it. It was like giving out a certificate to a good student. There was no sense of ceremony at all. But for people nowadays, this was already an extremely grand occasion, and everyone was extremely nervous.

Those who heard his name jumped up immediately, while those who didn't heard it were stunned.

"Three Monks" won Best Art Film.

Xie Jin won the best director for "The Legend of Tianyun Mountain".

The best screenplay went to "Bashan Night Rain", which is a typical scar movie:

It is said that on a passenger ship, a group of people with different identities lived in the same cabin. There were Peking opera actors who had been criticized, rural aunts, teachers, girls who were sold, poets who were knocked down, and poets who were being escorted.

The young general...

After everyone argued and conflicted, the young general suddenly realized that this was wrong!!!

It's very characteristic of the times.

That's it. The most bizarre thing is that there is no division between male and female supporting actors, but a collective award for best supporting actor and actress, which was awarded to the six actors of "Bashan Night Rain"!

"How unprofessional it is! It shows that there is no reasonable award mechanism at all. You can judge however you want!"

"It's like a joke!"

Chen Qi kept complaining.

"Best Costume, "Lushan Love"!"

Suddenly an award came out, and Chen Qi raised his eyebrows. Historically, "Romance in Lushan" had never won this award. The butterfly was flapping its wings again, so can we also look forward to the Best Actress award?

Continue to report.

"The Best Actor award is, uh, vacant!"

Buzz buzz!

Discussions began below, and the people on the stage also explained: "After careful consideration, the jury would rather not have a prize than to be fooled. This is a rigorous and fair approach, and everyone should encourage it."

"The following is the Best Actress Award. Audience friends must be looking forward to it!"

The people on the stage even gave it a try.

"..."

Chen Qi looked over at Zhang Yu. Zhang Yu was fidgeting nervously, completely unaware that his fate had changed.

Historically, she won the Best Actress crown with her double works "Love in Lushan Mountain" and "Rain on the Bashan Mountain". Now that they are separated, she and Gong Xue each have one film, and Chen Qi is not sure who he will award it to.

Yuan Wenshu stared at the stage and remembered the meeting and discussion that day.

Everyone voted in the end, and they smiled knowingly when they saw the results. You are not stupid. You know that a movie is not only a movie, but also has many off-site factors.

"Best Actress, Gong Xue in "Lushan Love"!"

"Whoosh!"

The applause rang out in an instant, and it was louder than ever before. Some of the audience in the back row stood up. They didn't know how to judge awards. In short, it was right to award the award to the goddess in their hearts.

"..."

Gong Xue's mouth opened slightly, her eyes widened, and she was stunned.

Chen Qi kicked her under the seat and said: "Wake up, wake up, get up quickly!"

Then she stood up stupidly, with an expression that she couldn't believe, and went to the stage with a large group of people to receive the award.

Zhang Yu, on the other hand, let out a sigh of relief, like a deflated rubber ball. Her current fame was not as good as Gong Xue's. She had held out hope before, but now she couldn't help but feel relieved, "Oh, it really won't work."

A group of people on the stage received their awards and took photos.

Gong Xue did not leave, but faced a microphone alone, holding the Golden Rooster trophy in her left hand and the certificate of honor in her right hand. Now she finally knew why she was allowed to speak on behalf of the actors.

"Thank you to the organizers of this conference, thank you to the Film Association, thank you to the jury, thank you..."

The speech had been reviewed, and it was all clichés. She could just memorize it, but she suddenly wanted to add something, and she said it with great courage: "Thank you to the screenwriter Comrade Chen Qi and director Wang Haowei..."

"As film workers in the new era, we will continue to work hard, live up to the expectations of the party and the people, and create more and better works of art!"

"Whoosh!"

Yuan Wenshu clapped his hands below, turned around and said, "Is that okay? She spoke on behalf of the actors, how can she thank an individual?"

"It's understandable that I was excited for a moment. After all, I just thanked you and didn't say anything else."

"I'd better mention it to her and pay attention next time!"

After Gong Xue finished her speech, she came back again, sat on the chair and buried her head deeply, covering her face with her hands, her shoulders twitching slightly, and she didn't know whether she was crying or laughing.

In public, Chen Qi couldn't help but look to Wang Haowei for help. Wang Haowei put his arms around her shoulders and whispered comfort for a long time before Gong Xue straightened up, her eyes red.

"How do you feel?" A familiar joking voice came from my ears.

"How about what?"

She wiped her tears and said embarrassedly.

"How does it feel to win a double award? I didn't lie to you. I said you were the most popular, so you are the most popular!"

Chen Qi moved forward the Hundred Flowers Trophy in his hand, and Gong Xue had a good idea. He also tilted the Golden Rooster Trophy and touched it lightly. It made a nice crisp sound, just like a few cups of celebration.
