Chapter 279 : Who is the flower, it's a worthwhile trip!
Cao Jun's mood was quite good.
Cao Jun answered all the reporters' questions, even those involving his personal life, as long as they were not excessive.
However, the focus of people's attention is naturally today's award ceremony. Who can not care about the result?
"I'm very happy to be nominated. Whether or not I win the award is an affirmation for me!"
Facing reporters' questions, Cao Jun answered very modestly, but he was looking forward to it.
Liu Shishi on the side was not so concerned about gains and losses, and her answer was much more sincere and sincere than Cao Jun.
After answering a series of meaningless questions, Cao Jun refused to speak any more and left the opportunity to other artists. He led Liu Shishi into the venue first.
Cao Jun walked in and immediately felt that Xiangnan Radio and Television had obviously put a lot of effort into this year's Golden Eagle Festival on Mango Channel. The venue alone was decorated magnificently.
Moreover, Cao Jun and all the shortlisted actors and actresses were seated in the first row, which is the legendary C position, where the camera lens can take care of them with just a glance.
This kind of position is usually given by the organizers of the Golden Eagle Festival to some of the TV actors and stars with the highest status on site.
There are more than ten seats in the middle of the first row, with male and female actors sitting together.
Sitting on Cao Jun's left is Liu Shishi, and sitting on his right is powerful actor Jiang Wenli.
By the way, Jiang Wenli is the favorite at this award ceremony. With the drama "Golden Wedding", she has achieved a double harvest of ratings and reputation. There is a high chance that she will win the Golden Eagle Award tonight.
After sitting down, Cao Jun greeted Jiang Wenli politely and respectfully: "Hello, sister Wenli, my name is Cao Jun."
Jiang Wenli glanced at Cao Jun, her eyes lit up, and then she politely replied: "I know you and have seen your acting. I heard that you recently became a director yourself and made a movie?"
Cao Jun was a little surprised and replied with a smile: "Yes, Sister Wenli, how did you know?"
Jiang Wenli said quietly: "They are all in a circle. Do you know what's so strange about them?"
Cao Jun thought about it. After all, they were all in the capital. Basically, any film and television projects would spread quickly.
Jiang Wenli then added: "However, directors as young and handsome as you are rare in our circle."
Hearing Jiang Wenli's words, Cao Jun was stunned for a moment, feeling strange, but soon he showed an awkward and polite smile: "Sister Wenli, you are too complimentary, I just want to break through myself, but also
He is not a qualified director."
In this way, Cao Jun and Jiang Wenli met for the first time and started whispering in the audience.
While chatting with Cao Jun, Jiang Wenli saw that Cao Jun was flamboyant in appearance but modest and cautious in his words and deeds, and she couldn't help but be impressed by the young man in front of her.
Although Cao Jun met Jiang Wenli for the first time, he also knew that she was not a simple woman and had quite a wide network of contacts in Beijing.
You know, when Jiang Wenli and her husband Chang Wei first got together, he was just a cinematographer. Although he won many photography awards at domestic and foreign film festivals, he was an honest man after all, and the key words in him were calmness and simplicity.
Jiang Wenli also always said that Gu Changwei was a very responsible person, but just not romantic enough.
After the turn of the millennium, Gu Changwei, who had been working as a photographer for nearly 20 years in several major studios such as Xiying Film and Beijing Film Studio, began to transform into a director, which took 5 years.
Jiang Wenli shouldered the burden of the entire family.
Gu Changwei once talked about this matter proudly: "In the five years between 1999, when I finished shooting "Autumn in New York" and later "Peacock," I basically made no money.
Don’t be embarrassed to admit it, I just rely on my wife to support me.”
In 5 years, Gu Changwei built up a very powerful game.
He chose the script "Peacock", written by Li Qiang, who later became famous and was also a good friend of Jiang Wenli.
It is said that the script has been circulating in the industry for three years, and no one dared to film it. It was too difficult to control.
Gu Changwei chose this script to make his debut, and also attracted many behind-the-scenes big names to support him, such as Er Yong, the producer of "Sunny Days", Liu Guonan, the executive director of "Hero", Ji Jianming, the best lighting engineer in Asia at the time, etc.
——All-star lineup.
Almost all of these all-star lineups were recruited by Jiang Wenli for her husband Gu Changwei, relying on her own network resources.
To put it bluntly, Gu Changwei is where he is today mainly because of his wife.
This movie won many awards and made Gu Changwei famous.
Gu Changwei, who was never a photographer with no voice, suddenly transformed into a director who holds the code to rewrite an actor's career.
Anyone who has ever been a director knows the joy of being in power.
Zhang Yimou understands it, Feng Xiaogang understands it, Wang Jing understands it, Zhang Jizhong understands it, Zhang Guoli understands it, and even the new director Cao Jun understands it very well.
Of course, their Scandal heroines know better.
Gu Changwei, a mature man who was calm and simple in Jiang Wenli's eyes, obviously couldn't resist the temptation and passion. The scandals started one after another, which almost pissed her off.
When I first fell in love with Gu Changwei, it was because of his talent and honesty that I didn't dislike his ugly appearance.
As a result, it turns out that men who look honest and honest but are also ugly are equally untrustworthy.
Sometimes, Jiang Wenli would reflect on herself. If she had known that her ugly but honest husband would secretly eat, she should have found a better-looking husband, who at least looked nice and not annoying.
By the way, for so many years, Jiang Wenli has been focused on her family and career and rarely pays attention to the handsome guys of the younger generation. She only has a good rapport with Cao Jun and is very chatty with her.
However, looking at the heroic Cao Jun, Jiang Wenli could only sigh in her heart, I was not born before you were born, but I am already old after you were born.
Seeing Cao Jun and Jiang Wenli chatting and laughing next to her, Liu Shishi didn't say a word, feeling unspeakably depressed and sad in her heart.
Liu Shishi thought to herself, she rarely broke through the rules today, put on a deep V dress for you, and squeezed out her career line, but you, a bastard, flirted with other women, she was almost crying...
As the awards ceremony progressed, actors such as Cao Jun and Liu Shishi, as well as Jiang Wenli, Li Youbin, Wang Baoqiang, etc., all took the stage to receive awards.
Four actors, Cao Jun, Wang Baoqiang, Li Youbin, and Lin Yongjian, stood out among the 12 shortlisted actors and won the Audience's Favorite Actor Award.
Liu Shishi, together with Jiang Wenli, Tong Lei and Sarina, fought their way out of the 12 shortlisted actresses and won the Audience's Favorite Actress Award.
After winning this award, Cao Jun and Liu Shishi's trip was considered worthwhile, at least it was not in vain.
Especially for Liu Shishi, as a newcomer, it is definitely a great honor for her to receive this award.
Soon, it was time to reach the final award for the most popular actor or actress, also known as the so-called TV King and TV Queen.
It is not modest to say that Cao Jun came here today for the Golden Eagle Festival to pay homage to the emperor.
As for whether he can win the prize in the end, it cannot be controlled by Cao Jun's thoughts.
After a while, host Cao Kefan opened the envelope in his hand, glanced down at it, and then began to speak: "The winner of the Most Popular Actress Award at the 24th China Golden Eagle TV Arts Festival is..."
The female host Cao Ying seemed to want to deliberately create a tense atmosphere and deliberately lengthened her voice: "Should I say the first word first?"
Unfortunately, Cao Kefan ignored Cao Ying's interaction and quickly read out his answer: "Jiang Wenli, congratulations to Jiang Wenli for winning the Most Popular Actress Award at the 24th China Golden Eagle Festival..."
The moment the answer was revealed, the camera panned from left to right. All the unsuccessful actresses had no smiles on their faces until the camera settled on Jiang Wenli.
"Congratulations to Jiang Wenli, Jiang Wenli is invited to come on stage to receive the award..."
When Sun Li heard the host on stage read out her name, she also showed a confident smile, moved onto the stage and delivered her acceptance speech.
The final award was the Golden Eagle Award for Most Popular Actor.
What made Cao Jun feel disappointed was that in the end, it was not him or Li Youbin who won the award, but his good friend Wang Baoqiang.
However, Cao Jun is not a stingy person. Wang Baoqiang definitely deserves the Golden Eagle Award as Emperor.
