On December 8, 2001, the 38th Golden Horse Awards were announced.
"Durian" won the best picture, and "Lan Yu" director Guan Jinpeng won the best director. The male and female protagonists of these two films, Liu Hua and Qin Hailu, both won the best actor and best actress.
This is the first time that the Best Actor and Best Actress awards at the Golden Horse Awards have all been won by mainland actors, breaking the Golden Horse Awards record.
What's even more awesome is that the actor and actress are classmates in the same class.
The Class of 96 of China National Drama Theater instantly became famous!
In fact, the 96 star class was already somewhat famous before this, but it is only now that they have truly become famous.
The number one actress in international films, Hu Jing is extremely popular in the field of TV dramas, and there are two of the most popular four actresses in Class 96.
After "Love Through Time and Space", the second female lead Yuan Quan can be considered a second-tier star, Mei Ting is popular, Zeng Li is a little famous, and now Qin Hailu and Liu Hua have won the Golden Horse Best Actor and Best Actress respectively, and the entire class of 96 is simply star-studded.
In the past two days, the threshold for Chinese dramas has been broken by reporters, and Chang Li, the head teacher of 1996, was even interviewed one after another.
The old lady was extremely happy.
In particular, the proud student of Mr. Cui from Nortel next door had just had an accident, and his student was in a hit TV series, a hit movie, and won the best actor and best actress. This contrast made me feel particularly happy.
Then the old lady called the students of Class 96 for a gathering in her own name.
On the one hand, it is to celebrate the achievements of Qin and Liu, and on the other hand, it is also to let those students who have done well lead other students, so that everyone can help each other and work together as a team.
In order to worry about the self-esteem of those students who did not get along well, Teacher Chang called one by one and invited them. He said that he was very powerful. Although not all the people in Class 96 were gathered together, most of them came.
Chinese opera, a certain hotel
As a student of Chinese opera, Zeng Li hangs around Teacher Chang every day, so he is naturally caught as a young man. Yuan Quan, his best friend in Guohua, is not spared either. The two of them are responsible for welcoming guests.
"Hey, isn't this the beauty of Zeng University? She's beautiful again."
While the two were chatting, they saw a man with half-long hair, wearing sunglasses, and a proud face appear in front of them.
"The great actor is here and he needs to sign his name for us."
Yuan Quan couldn't help but joke when he saw Liu Hua. Having said that, the two of them couldn't hide their envy when they looked at him.
Golden Horse Best Actor!
Liu Hua won the honor that many people dream of at such a young age. How could he not be enviable?
"Let me introduce to you, Xie Na, my girlfriend."
After chatting with an old classmate, Liu Hua introduced the girl next to him.
"Oh, it's the PP you thanked during the award ceremony."
Zeng Li and the other two greeted Xie Na. They were somewhat famous, and Xie Na also knew the two of them, but they were a bit preoccupied with what was served. They had a good attitude toward Yuan Quan, who was a little more famous, and were a little cold to Zeng Li.
In fact, it's nothing, it's the same for everyone, but Xie Na's lack of practice now makes it a little obvious.
Zeng and Li didn't say anything, and welcomed them in. Not many classmates came, so they simply chatted with them in the lobby.
During this period, Na Xie was young and energetic, or faced a little pressure from her boyfriend's two beautiful old classmates, so she inevitably started to show off, especially her boyfriend's Golden Horse Best Actor, who praised her very highly and even took out a trophy to show off to the two of them.
.
"There have been too many reporters coming to see Liu Hua in the past two days. There are TV interviews and magazine covers. They can't be ignored. If Teacher Chang hadn't called, I really wouldn't have had time to come here."
If it were anyone else, she might have been stimulated by Xie Na's words, but with Zeng Li and the two of them, she was looking for the wrong path.
Zeng Li slept at home with a pop star who was popular in Asia, a Golden Horse Best Actor, let alone Yuan Quan, who was one of the top three Venice Best Actors in Europe.
And it is worth mentioning that Liu Ye is the second mainland actor to win the Golden Horse Best Actor, and the first Mainland Golden Horse Best Actor was Xia Yu.
In other words, Yuan Quan had played with Xie Na’s precious Golden Horse Best Actor trophy at home a few years ago...
However, neither of them slapped her in the face to thank Na. It was not that kind of character, so they just treated it as coaxing a little girl.
Liu Ye, on the other hand, went early to chat with other male classmates in a heartless manner, otherwise if he were nearby, he would have been able to stop him.
He may not know the relationship between Zeng Li and Cao Xuan, but he does know Xia Yu, and he also knows that he, the actor, cannot stand up to others.
After chatting with Xie Na for a few words, the two went to the door to greet people, and their classmates also came one after another.
"Chen Minghao, you have gained weight."
"Qin Hao, wherever you go, you can't see anyone."
"Tongtong, long time no see."
"Hailu, congratulations."
"..."
China Opera Class 96 graduated in the summer of 2000, more than a year ago.
During this period, everyone was busy in their own way. Except for the rare encounters with each other, except for the very good relationship, now we meet again and chat about the past, which is a unique feeling.
While the atmosphere was getting lively, I saw a woman wrapped up tightly enter the box. She took off her glasses and scarf, revealing an oval face with pear circles. It was Hu Jing who was now blushing purple.
"Jingjing, you are here too."
The classmates present were very surprised, Qin Hailu even came up to greet him, and Hu Jing said with a smile.
"This is a big day for our class, can I not come? But there was some activity just now, so I was a little late. I will punish myself with a drink later."
“Open enough!”
After fending off the boys who were joining in the fun, Qin Hailu hugged Hu Jing and returned to the group of girls and boys' families. Zeng Li nodded and said hello.
"Coming?"
"Coming."
Hu Jing forced out a smile. Compared to before, there was now a tacit understanding between the two. Although it was still a bit awkward, they could get along normally.
If Cao Daguan saw this scene, I don't know how happy he would be and how confused he would be.
With Hu Jing's current fame, even if she doesn't want to, she is destined to be the focus of the class. It won't be better until the international chapter comes later.
"Sorry, I'm late."
I got the International Chapter almost immediately, a little later than Teacher Chang, but I still received a warm welcome from the classmates.
She has twice worked with big names such as Cheng Long, Jet Li, and Liang Bianwei, and starred in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Rush Hour II", both of which have achieved good results in Hollywood.
Even with the presence of Hu Jing, a little girl who has appeared in many hit TV series, Ji Ji Zhang is still the well-deserved number one person in the 96th class of the Chinese Drama Theater.
Teacher Chang also had to admit that he was wrong at first.
International Zhang and Liu Hua, who were least optimistic, are now the best girls and boys in the class.
Fortunately, her favorite Hu Jing is quite up to date and is now also a well-known figure, earning her a lot of respect...
………
Almost all the students from Class 96 were present, plus some classmates and their families, more than twenty people sat at two tables, and the table opened in a lively manner.
The center of the venue was naturally Hu Jing, International Zhang, and the two people who won the Golden Horse.
After being trained in Hollywood, the international chapter's interpersonal communication skills have improved rapidly, and he is very versatile among his classmates and feels like a fish in water.
Liu Hua is a carefree person who has good relationships with the boys in the class and is lively and lively. Qin Hailu has a straightforward temper and has a good relationship with the girls in the class.
Hu Jing mainly accompanies Teacher Chang. She is Teacher Chang's favorite student.
Zeng Li was also dragged over by Teacher Chang. She is now Teacher Chang's right-hand assistant and the only student that Teacher Chang still worries about from time to time.
Looking at the two good students, one old and one new, Teacher Chang helped them connect with each other with sincere words.
"Teacher remembers that you were very close when you were freshmen and sophomores. Why do you seem a little distant now? Don't blame me for being too talkative. There are many connections in the circle, and I am not as reliable as your college classmates. Please help me if you need anything, and you will have someone to help you when you encounter problems in the future.
.”
This was mainly meant for Hu Jing. After all, in Teacher Chang's opinion, Hu Jing was a popular star, while Zeng Li was a poor little guy who had no acting experience. He hoped Hu Jing could help her more.
Hu Jing glanced at Zeng Li strangely, but she didn't expect the beauty Zeng to be so low-key.
"Don't worry, Chang Mom. I'll help Lizi keep an eye on it later."
Zeng Li, who was originally a little embarrassed because of "pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger", heard the long-lost "pear" in Hu Jing's mouth. His mind was shaken, and he was stunned for a moment before whispering.
"Mother Chang, I have a good relationship with Jingjing. We often communicate in private, but we are busy and rarely meet. You have misunderstood."
"That's good."
Teacher Chang vaguely noticed that something was wrong between the two of them, but thought it was because of the embarrassment and unnaturalness after being brought into a relationship by him. However, looking at the names of the two, he felt that his work was not in vain, and he was very happy.
"You two are my favorite and most valued students. One is a young talent, and the other is a natural born in Qingyi. When I first entered school, I thought you two had great potential. I will work harder in the future and don't compare myself to them."
Yuan Quan watched from the side and saw that the two of them were obediently listening to Teacher Chang's instructions. With the old lady's mediation, the relationship had obviously eased.
They even rarely joked with each other about a few interesting things that happened when their relationship was still good.
Yuan Quan couldn't hold it back anymore, so he took out his cell phone and described the scene to Xia Yu. In less than 10 minutes, he received a text message from Cao Xuan.
"I'm asking if Mr. Chang will accept your godson. As long as he helps mediate the conflicts between his godson and his daughter-in-law, the conditions are whatever you want."
"Pooh."
Yuan Quan replied, jotting down Xia Yu in his notebook. He was too quick to talk and had to deal with him when he got home.
After dinner, Teacher Chang left first, and the remaining students who were not happy planned to go find a KTV to sing.
International Zhang waved his hand proudly and walked directly to the cashier that had just opened in the capital. She treated her to a treat.
Except for a few who really wanted to leave in advance, everyone else followed. Hu Jing came in the business car she was in, and several girls followed her.
Zeng Li did the same, but when others got in the car to observe the interior and area of the car, she looked at the driver first.
Female, short hair, in her thirties, with a calm face and a capable temperament.
Zeng Li knew in his heart that he had a female bodyguard, and Hu Jing was also indispensable. He murmured to himself that someone really knew how to balance a bowl of water.
When they came to the cashier, they opened a large box and a group of people went in, chatting, drinking and singing happily.
Liu Hua was honest and was the first to grab the microphone: "Let me sing "Blue and White Porcelain" for everyone. This song is so popular now."
The song started to be requested, and Hu Jing's face appeared in the MV on the big screen in the KTV box, and many people looked at a certain corner.
Not everyone has watched the MV, most of them just do it to listen to the music. Only particularly popular MVs have a certain degree of popularity.
Hu Jing smiled reservedly: "Friend."
"Oh~"
Everyone was making noises. After "Blue and White Porcelain" was finished, someone sang "Ice Rain" by Liu Tianwang, and a male classmate clicked on "Fireworks Easily Cold".
"I think this song is Cao Xuan's masterpiece of Chinese style, better than "Blue and White Porcelain"."
The prelude melody flowed, the MV started to play, Zeng Li's figure appeared on the screen, and everyone's eyes moved to another corner, including Hu Jing.
Zeng Li glanced at Hu Jing, didn't know what he thought of, and replied: "Friend."
"hiss"
Everyone present gasped for air-conditioning, and the room temperature in the box suddenly dropped several degrees. Many people's eyes were shining, and they were looking back and forth. Including the international chapter, they were all excitedly waiting for something.
But unfortunately, Hu Jing didn’t say anything, and Zeng Li also kept silent. Even though there were many people who didn’t mind the excitement, they took turns to play Cao Xuan’s songs and looked at the figures of Hu Jing and Zeng Li that kept appearing in the MV.
.
The atmosphere in the box was quite anxious, but the two parties involved pretended not to notice, and Hu Jing even went up to sing her own "Providence of Love".
But Yuan Quan, who knew the two of them well, knew that someone was going to be in trouble, so he sent a text message to Xia Yu.
"I'd like to tell your good brother, stay out of the limelight these two days. Both the East and West Palaces have been blown up."
Five minutes later, Cao Xuan’s text message came as promised.
