The 50th Golden Phoenix Awards was held tonight at the Yu Provincial Gymnasium, with stars gathering and brilliance.
Xiao Zhao is an intern reporter in the Bibo News Department. He just joined the company in September this year, and the Golden Phoenix Award was his last major interview assignment during his internship.
Once you've done a good job, you'll get a permanent job and a salary increase.
If you don't do it well, you have no choice but to pack up and get out.
Therefore, Xiao Zhao attached great importance to this Golden Phoenix Award. He stood outside the red carpet aisle with the camera in his hand and kept taking pictures, trying to see if he could get any good pictures.
It would be better if some female star falls down, is exposed, has her skirt collapsed, etc...
Although it may be immoral to expect others to make a fool of themselves, in order to keep their jobs, they have no choice but to show some conscience. After all, life is not easy for fresh graduates.
Lao Zhang was an old colleague from the same department as Xiao Zhao, and could barely be regarded as Xiao Zhao's master. He saw his apprentice's nervousness, reached out and patted Xiao Zhao on the shoulder, and said a few words of comfort.
"Don't panic, the supervisor just likes to scare people. You performed well during the internship and you won't be laid off at the drop of a hat."
Xiao Zhao nodded, his expression softened slightly, but he still looked serious.
When Lao Zhang saw this, he didn't say much. After all, he didn't have to blame himself, so he was trying to save others by himself. If he were Xiao Zhao, he would probably be even more miserable.
Xiao Zhao is young. If he loses his job, he can still find another family. He has a wife, children, and a family, and he also has a mortgage and car loan. If he loses his job, it will be fatal.
Thinking of this, Lao Zhang showed a rare kindness and gave his apprentice a few words of advice: "Don't just shoot blindly. It's easy to focus on one thing and miss the other. As a reporter, you must learn to focus on the key points."
"What's the point?" Xiao Zhao put down the camera and asked curiously.
Lao Zhang took out a fruit candy from his pocket and threw it into his mouth. Smoking was prohibited in the venue, so he could only use this to suppress his addiction. The sweetness of the peach rippled in his mouth, and Lao Zhang spoke carefully.
“There are so many stars on the red carpet, so it’s so tiring to shoot them all. We just need to capture those who are popular, those who wear leaky clothes, those who are topical, and those who are popular for winning awards. These stars have their own traffic popularity, go back to write articles, and the news will have high clicks
.
I know you want to take a sideways photo, but you want others to want to do it too. Look at the media outlets around you. There are hundreds of them, big and small. We have four or five groups of people in our scarves alone.
It's just a fluke that I happened to fall down and get exposed. With so many people here, it will immediately become a bad news on the street. Instead, it is better to think about normal breaking news and win steadily."
"That's it?"
Xiao Zhao was a little disappointed. He thought his master would teach him some special tips for being a reporter, but it turned out that they were all simple methods. Even if his master didn't say them, he himself understood them.
However, he can usually win steadily, but now he is in the critical period of becoming a full-time regular, and he can't hold on anymore...
Seeing Xiao Zhao respond perfunctorily and then continue to pick up the camera to take pictures, Lao Zhang curled his lips.
Young people, they just can’t keep their composure.
Just as he was sighing, there was a noise at the entrance to the red carpet. Lao Zhang looked around and saw that the crew of "Don't Talk to Strangers" had arrived, and he quickly raised his camera.
"Don't Talk to Strangers" is a rare phenomenon-level TV series this year, and it is also one of the most watched TV series at this year's Golden Phoenix Awards.
It was shortlisted for the top ten TV dramas, and won three awards for Best Actor (Yu Entai) and Best Director (Kong Sheng), and all of them are popular, especially the first two.
The top ten TV dramas are almost guaranteed to win.
As for this year's competition for the title of emperor, Yu Entai and Li Youbin from "Enter Guandong" are the two most promising candidates, and the other three are obviously far behind.
Coincidentally, Li Youbin plays his father Zhu Kaishan and Yu Entai plays the third son Zhu Chuanjie in "Crossing Guandong", so this year's battle for the emperor can be regarded as a "father-son game."
The father and son of the old Zhu family are fighting each other. Whether it is the old age or the old age that is more powerful, or the youth is better than the old. This is an important aspect of this year's Golden Phoenix Awards.
More importantly, Yu Entai and the heroine Yin Li are very popular. Last year, "Wulin Gaiden" won the national award, and this year they co-starred in the domestic violence drama "Don't Talk to Strangers".
Uh...the latter probably doesn't count.
But no matter what, after a series of hit dramas, the two of them became famous, especially Yu Entai, who also has another movie "Crossing Guandong" and is now nominated for the title of TV King.
Regardless of whether Yu Entai can get what he wants in the end, after today, it is certain that he will be on the front line.
With such obvious popularity, if you don't waste it, just write a few manuscripts, and half a week's worth of material will be enough. Lao Zhang is considered an old man, how can he not seize the opportunity.
Of course, he didn't forget his apprentice. Just when he was about to give a reminder, he turned around and saw that Xiao Zhao's camera was almost in front of the red carpet.
This kid was almost going crazy after being tortured by the news of being turned into a regular employee.
Lao Zhang sighed with sadness, seeing the crew of "Don't Talk to Strangers" leaving the red carpet. Lao Zhang was about to take a break when he saw the crew of "Family with Children 3" walking on the red carpet again.
As one of the few sitcoms in China, "Family with Children" is still very popular in Lao Zhang's heart.
Moreover, the Chinese New Year will be coming in two months, and "Family with Children 4" will be aired by then, so it would be a good idea to collect some photos now.
Lao Zhang raised the camera in his hand again and clicked at the cast members of "Family with Children" on the red carpet.
While taking pictures, Lao Zhang discovered a new face from the cast of "All About Children". It couldn't be said to be a new face. He knew this kid, Kuroki from "Go Boy", but he didn't participate in "All About Children 3".
》, how to walk along the red carpet.
But when Lao Zhang thought about it, he realized that the directors of the two TV series were Gao Xinjian, and he understood what was going on.
This year "Family with Children 3" was shortlisted for two awards: Top Ten TV Dramas and Best Screenplay (Shang Qianwu).
"Go Boy" has also been shortlisted for Best Newcomer, and the candidate is none other than Chu Yuan, who plays Kuroki.
The two TV series have the same director and the starring team almost overlaps. There is no need to split into two crews. Chu Yuan just happened to have finished filming "Family with Children 4", so he might as well join the "Family with Children" crew directly.
"It seems that Director Gao attaches great importance to this Chu Yuan. Will Shanhe praise this kid in the future? Well, I'll pay more attention to him later, maybe he will be another star of tomorrow."
Lao Zhang touched his chin, took out his cell phone and wrote down Chu Yuan's name on his notepad. Then he glanced at the crew behind him. Seeing that there were no characters worth paying attention to, he put down the camera and went fishing.
As for his apprentice, Xiao Zhao, he was still taking pictures of the red carpet tirelessly. Lao Zhang saw that his balls hurt and he screamed.
"Apprentice, your camera has run out of battery after you've been shooting like this for a while."
"It's okay, Master. I brought 5 batteries and 3 memory cards, which are definitely enough."
Xiao Zhao didn't even turn around and said something, and continued to slap the half-covered parts of a certain actress on the red carpet from the neck down to the abdomen.
The actress felt Xiao Zhao's enthusiasm. Instead of being annoyed, she smiled sexyly and straightened forward intentionally or unintentionally.
"..."
Lao Zhang looked at the excited Xiao Zhao and suddenly couldn't figure out whether his apprentice was so active in order to become a regular employee or if he had some unspeakable motive.
Damn it, I have to ask him for some materials later. Well, they are news materials...
…………
Just when Lao Zhang was thinking about how he could speak to Xiao Zhao in a natural way without affecting his image as a master, Xiao Zhao shouted excitedly.
"Master, we are the crew of "Magic Phone"."
Lao Zhang immediately put aside Man Nuozi's complicated thoughts, picked up the camera and took a look at it.
Although this year's Golden Phoenix Awards are full of high-quality products, reporters can't help but divide them into thirds, sixths, and ninths based on attention. Among them, reporters recognized that the most noteworthy ones are the two film crews.
"Crossing Guandong" and "Magic Phone".
"Enter Guandong" is the biggest favorite at this year's Golden Phoenix Awards. It has been shortlisted for multiple awards, and most of them have a high chance of winning. Coupled with its status as the ratings champion in 2020, it is difficult to get less attention.
Although the performance of "Magic Phone" is not as good as that of "Enter Guandong" and it is not nominated for many awards, it can't stand it. It has just finished airing and the traffic is at its highest.
In addition, both dramas are directed by Zuo Le, complementing each other, 112, and adding a lot of popularity out of thin air.
Before coming here, Lao Zhang told Xiao Zhao that he could leave the other crews alone, but the two crews of "Crossing Guandong" and "Magic Phone" must keep an eye on him.
Lao Zhang's first shot was to find director Zuo Le, but unfortunately he couldn't find it, but he wasn't too disappointed.
Of the two crews, if Zuo Le is not working on "Magic Phone", he is working on "Enter Guandong", just wait a while.
In the absence of Zuo Le, the most favored by Lao Zhang in the cast of "Magic Phone" is Shui Miaomiao. This little girl became famous again with her silly girl. She is the most popular star in China since mid-November, and no one can beat her in popularity.
It was not until the past few days that the news related to the Golden Phoenix Awards continued, which barely suppressed Shui Miaomiao. However, despite this, Shui Miaomiao is still one of the most popular stars today.
And at this year's Golden Phoenix Awards, his role as Sha Niu is the number one favorite for the most popular character of the year, and the online voting far exceeds the second place by several places.
It's a pity that "Magic Phone" was hampered by word-of-mouth ratings. There were not many shortlisted awards. Apart from Shui Miaomiao's most popular role of the year, the only ones left were the top ten popular TV series, best visual effects, best editing and best newcomer (Shen Teng).
This result is considered outstanding for ordinary TV series, but for "Magic Phone" which broke 3, it is somewhat unsatisfactory.
Especially after Shi Dishi, many people were optimistic about Mao Xiao and Shui Miaomiao being shortlisted. However, after the shortlist was announced, they both failed.
There is also Best Supporting Actor. Many people were optimistic that the second uncle could win this award for the second time, but now he is not shortlisted.
If it hadn't been for the support of "Enter Guandong", some people might have questioned whether the Golden Phoenix Awards were intentionally suppressing Shanhe.
After "Magic Phone", "After the Battle" and "Six Serious Cases" followed immediately. Lao Zhang had no time to paddle, so he and his apprentice Xiao Zhao took photos non-stop with their cameras.
"After the Battle" is the only TV series this year, apart from Zuo Le's two works, to have a rating of over 3, with a rating of nearly 9.
It has been shortlisted for many awards, including Top Ten TV Dramas, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art, Best Actor, and Best Supporting Actor.
If it hadn't been for bad luck and happened to run into "Crossing Guandong", which was overshadowed by it in all aspects, the winner of this year's Golden Phoenix Award might have been CCTV.
Lao Zhang was very interested in the crew of "After the Final Battle" and took pictures everywhere with his camera. When he discovered that director Zhang Mei was not acting with the crew, the smile on his face couldn't help but start to shine brightly.
There was internal discord in "After the Show". Director Zhang Mei had a falling out with CCTV, and it has long been known that she quit her job due to anger. During this award ceremony, many people were curious about whether the two parties would get together and what their expressions would be like.
Now it is known that the two sides are still at odds with each other, and many reporters have the same trouble-making smiles as Lao Zhang.
There is news material again.
Although CCTV is one of the three major official media outlets in China, entertainment reporters are not afraid either.
Anyway, there is a lot of dirty information related to these annual reports. Every year, the old accounts of several CCTV hosts will be dug up by reporters and used as performance reports.
I have never seen CCTV take revenge for this.
Besides, everyone is a professional penman. It is a basic skill to practice some Spring and Autumn penmanship. You can hack the opponent without being caught.
It doesn't matter even if you get caught. The worst that can happen is that you will receive a letter from a lawyer and then delete the article and apologize. For experienced reporters, this is something they have long been accustomed to.
It is foreseeable that after tonight, the grudge between Zhang Mei and CCTV will be brought out to make a big fuss again, and it may even implicate Zhang Mei's new owner, Dongshan TV.
It’s not like this group of entertainment reporters and editors have never played the role before.
However, at that time, Dongshan TV was just starting to gain momentum, and the comparison between the two sides was not obvious. Now, Dongshan TV has been promoted to a first-tier TV station, and the challenge is much more interesting than the old "Avengers" routine.
It's a pity that Zuo Le, a big traffic figure, is very sensitive to CCTV. He warned them once before that the role of "The Sword in the Hands of the Dragon-Slaying Hero" can only be replaced by Zhang Mei.
The topicality will definitely decrease, but it is better than nothing.
Lao Zhang kept a few group photos of the entire cast of "After the Battle" and took pictures of the crew of "Case Six" behind him, but he had already started drafting in his mind, and he felt a little discouraged after a while.
Alas, Zuo Le is really unreasonable. He should choose himself out in advance, otherwise if he replaces Zhang Mei with him, he will have the confidence to produce a hit article...
Lao Zhang was in a depressed mood, and he didn't even care much about "Serious Case Group Six".
In fact, this drama didn't attract much attention, and its limelight was completely stolen by several other dramas from Shanhe.
Among them, the one who suffered the most was the male lead Fan Min. He had great hopes of being nominated for the Golden Phoenix Award for Best Actor. At the beginning of the year, when "Crime Six" was on the air, Fan Min was even the number one favorite for the Best Actor.
As a result, a lot of Shanhe dramas were aired one after another, and each one got better results than the last, making the original "Serious Case Group Six", which was good, look mediocre.
Fan Min, who was originally the number one favorite to be the emperor, was not even shortlisted in the end.
It is worth mentioning that Zhou Binbin and Zhang Ze were nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Newcomer for their roles as Zheng Yiming and Huang Tao in "Case Six".
Counting Chu Yuan from "Go Boy" and Shen Teng from "Magic Phone", Shanhe accounts for three of the five candidates for Best Newcomer.
It's another exciting fight between the same disciples...
Lao Zhang took a few photos of Zhou Binbin and Zhang Ze, and then Xin took a fruit candy and threw it into his mouth.
Almost all the crews worth paying attention to this year have appeared on the red carpet. The rest, except for "Crossing Guandong", it doesn't matter whether they are filmed or not.
After taking a look at his apprentice Xiao Zhao who was still filming endlessly, Lao Zhang smacked his lips and recharged his batteries to wait for the final cast of "Enter Guandong".
It may be that the organizing committee intentionally made "Enter Guandong" the finale. It was not until the end of the red carpet that the crew of "Enter Guandong" that countless people had been thinking about appeared at the entrance of the red carpet.
There are two people at the head. The man is very energetic, and the woman is fair-skinned and has long legs. She is sweet and moving. They hold hands and behave intimately. They smile and greet the people around the red carpet.
"WTF?!!!"
Lao Zhang exclaimed and immediately raised the camera, with only one thought in his mind.
