Chapter 601 601. Golden Horse 43 (Part 1)
The 43rd Golden Horse Awards will be held on November 23.
The day before Nie Wei and his party boarded the plane, Kyoto welcomed the first snow. Wang Zhonglei smiled and said that this was a good omen, called "auspicious snow heralds a good harvest". Nie Wei's trip to Taiwan will also have a great harvest.
After Nie Wei and his party arrived in Taiwan, they were immediately warmly received by the organizers of the Golden Horse Awards.
After all, this year's Golden Horse Awards, Nie Wei and his party are definitely the most important guests. They are the group with the most nominated awards, and they also include many heavyweight awards. The key is that Nie Wei, Shu Chang and others are very popular, and they are also the top guests of this year's Golden Horse Awards.
This can be heard from the thunderous cheers when they walked on the red carpet.
The red carpet has always been one of the best places to test the popularity of artists. The level of cheers and the pursuit of the media are the standards, and the cheers Nie Wei and his party received are definitely the highest tonight, especially when Nie Wei and Shu Chang appeared together, the flash of the media almost dyed the night into day.
Tonight, Nie Wei was wearing a navy blue plaid suit specially tailored for him by Armani. The silver lines on the suit were all real sterling silver, which was blended into the fabric by Armani with special craftsmanship. The suit made by Nie Wei looked low-key and luxurious.
He wore a simple white shirt inside, but the craftsmanship was also done by the suit designer. Every inch of the suit almost perfectly outlined the lines of Nie Wei's body, but it did not make Nie Wei feel the restraint brought by the slim suit.
Shu Chang, who was standing next to him, had a princess ponytail, a white shirt, a black denim high-waisted skirt, and a black women's long suit. She was dressed simply but fashionably, especially compared with the long skirts of a bunch of female stars on the red carpet, she looked more youthful and playful.
Sometimes, age is really an advantage. Only Shu Chang can wear such a dress at this age.
If Nie Wei and Shu Chang are the most eye-catching couple on the red carpet, then the best choice on the red carpet tonight will fall on Lin Yifei.
This girl wore a white mesh dress tonight. The amazing thing about this dress is that it is full of petals embroidered by the designer. With Lin Yifei's exquisite face and cold aura, she looks like a fairy among flowers, noble and elegant, and a goddess.
The moment she stepped on the red carpet, I don't know how many men and women on the scene and in front of the TV were impressed.
In addition, Huang Xiaoming, Hu Ge, Yuan Hong and other stars followed Nie Wei and others to Taiwan. Although some of them were not shortlisted, they will also appear as guests of the Golden Horse Awards. Anyway, after Nie Wei and his group walked the red carpet, the reporters, fans, and the audience in front of the TV had only one sigh, that is, these people are really good-looking.
Although there are few people who can be movie stars who look bad, the appearance and temperament of Nie Wei's group are still very outstanding among handsome men and beautiful women.
"What's the use of just having good looks? Actors still need to look at their acting skills." Some jealous people couldn't help but say.
"As for acting, do you dare to say Shu Chang is not good? Do you dare to say Xixi is not good? Or do you dare to say that Nie Wei is not good?" Someone immediately retorted.
This remark made the person speechless. Although Nie Wei, Shu Chang, Lin Yifei and other actors are young, their acting skills are not bad at all, especially Nie Wei, who is simply recognized as a powerful actor in the entertainment industry. Otherwise, there would not be so many media to promote Nie Wei, saying that Nie Wei is the "uncrowned king" and that the Golden Horse owes Nie Wei a "best actor". All these slogans are more or less based on Nie Wei's superb acting skills, otherwise it would only be a joke no matter how loud they are.
The Golden Horse Awards have arranged very good positions for the two crews of "Your Name" and "Back to 20". Nie Wei first went to greet Ning Hao and his group who had entered the venue a long time ago, and then greeted Zhou Xun from the crew of "If Love" behind.
After chatting with her for a few words, Nie Wei finally made his choice and sat in the crew of "Your Name", sitting shoulder to shoulder with Shu Chang.
Lin Yifei, who was not far away, had a look of expectation in her eyes, but soon turned into indifference.
After Nie Wei sat down, the cameras on the scene frequently pointed the lens at Nie Wei and his group. Every time the picture of Nie Wei and Shu Chang appeared on the big screen on the stage, it attracted loud screams from the fans who entered the venue.
After all, both of them are popular actors, and they have collaborated on a movie that is super popular in Asia. The most important thing is that they recently announced their relationship, and I don’t know how many fans who have watched "Your Name" shouted for happiness.
No matter who they knew or didn’t know, they all came to greet Nie Wei. The whole venue was like a solar system, and Nie Wei was the sun around which all the planets revolved, dazzling and eye-catching.
Soon the award ceremony began.
The opening was still a wonderful short film, starring some local variety show people, COS some characters from this year's popular movies, and then pieced together a funny process.
After the short film ended, the host also came on stage.
The combination of Cai Gong and Xiao S made Nie Wei feel very familiar, especially after being teased by the two, Nie Wei and Shu Chang even felt like they were participating in "Kangxi Comes Here".
However, the two of them really had a good understanding of each other, and there were constant jokes in the first few minutes, which fully mobilized the atmosphere of the scene.
After that, the chairman of the Golden Horse Awards, sponsors and local senior officials spoke. This section is probably the least popular section. Just like the first sentence of the jury chairman Zhang Changyan when he came on stage, he said: "I know everyone at the scene is still here." The audience in front of the TV doesn’t like this part, so I will try to say it as quickly as possible.”
This self-deprecating sentence actually brought a moment of laughter to this dull session.
But in the final analysis, the speech that followed was still quite satisfactory. He talked about the glory of the Golden Horse, looked forward to the future, and praised the help of the Baodao government. Even the director on the scene secretly prayed that this period would pass quickly, but he didn’t see it. Are the ratings plummeting?
But there was no point in praying. After more than ten minutes, the ratings were about to drop below a certain point, and this segment was finally over.
Even before a certain officer returned to his seat, music started playing to welcome the host to the stage again.
"A good movie cannot be separated from a good script. Now let us invite guests to the stage to announce the finalists for the best original screenplay." Under the introduction of the host, the guests came to the stage and after a while of teasing each other, The finalists this time were also broadcast on the big LED screen at the back.
"Crazy Stone" by Ning Hao, "The Weight of Fingertips" by Pan Zhiyuan and Liu Xuerong, "Back to Twenty" by Nie Wei, "Your Name" by Nie Wei"
Nie Wei's two shortlisted screenplays also aroused huge cheers at the scene. Listening to the volume, some people thought they were awarding Best Actor and Best Actress awards. In fact, Nie Wei attracted the attention of many people, including the jealous ones. The list goes on.
At this moment, Nie Wei calmly accepted the jealous looks from around him, and showed a polite smile when the camera looked over.
"The winner is..." After showing the shots to several finalists, the guests also took out the list and began to announce the results.
"'Your Name', congratulations to Nie Wei." The moment the results were announced, cheers rang out again. Nie Wei stood up, buttoned up his suit, and walked calmly towards the stage.
Standing on the stage and receiving the trophy handed over by the guests, Nie Wei stood in front of the podium and said with a smile: "I am very happy to have won this award again. I will work harder in the future to create better scripts and film movies." A better and more interesting movie to give back to the fans’ expectations, thank you all.”
From beginning to end, Nie Wei only spoke for more than ten seconds, and then returned to his seat with the trophy.
This chic appearance made many little fans think that Nie Wei was so chic and cool. But in fact, Nie Wei was just planning to put his important speech at the back. He didn’t believe that there were so many shortlisters and he only got this one award in the end. Woolen cloth.
Later, the best art design was also won by Li Tianci from "Your Name". He is also one of the veterans of Nie Wei's team. He was a designer hired by Nie Wei from a small studio. He was originally just for more Even though he was earning a salary, he never expected that one day he would be on the stage of the Golden Horse Awards. He was so excited that he even cried on the stage.
Fortunately, he quickly stopped his excited tears, but when he spoke, his voice was still trembling, and he was obviously very uneasy inside.
“I’m honored to work with so many great people.”
"Honestly, I never thought I would stand here one day. At that time, I was living like a robot."
"Director Nie Wei gave me the opportunity, brought me into this circle, and gave me ideals so that I can fully demonstrate my talents."
"So after I get on this podium, I must thank him. This person deserves my gratitude for the rest of my life."
Li Tianci was obviously a little too excited. While complaining about his pain, he kept thanking Nie Wei for discovering him. The camera also showed Nie Wei at this moment. In the picture, Nie Wei was giving a thumbs up to Li Tianci on the stage. , seemed to be encouraging him.
When Li Tianci walked off the stage, Nie Wei specially gave him a hug. As someone who admired him, Nie Wei knew very well where Li Tianci was excited today and how difficult it was for him to reach this point. If By writing down the journey of Li Tianci’s struggle to the present, it is possible to make a TV series about the growth of grassroots designers.
Later, the best original music was also won by Nie Wei. The background music played during the confession in the palm of the hand was praised by many musicians as "the most touching soundtrack of the year". Both the lyrics and the melody are very suitable for the movie itself. It made that already wonderful scene even more perfect, and it completely prayed for its role in sublimating the plot.
Just like a film critic once said that when this piece of music played, the emotions he had accumulated due to being moved finally exploded. It was like an invisible key, quietly opening people's hearts. Lock, people don't have time to set up defenses, and they are completely immersed in the movie.
Unknowingly, Nie Wei has already won two trophies, and the entire "Your Name" crew has also won three trophies. It is a pity that the best editing award fell to him, but even so, it is still a rich harvest.
Subsequently, Brother Hu unfortunately lost in the Best Supporting Actor category, and the young man was very frustrated.
"Don't be discouraged. Come back next year." Nie Wei patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him.
"Yes!" Brother Hu nodded firmly and suddenly asked Nie Wei: "Brother Nie Wei, please come to me to collaborate on your next movie."
"Ha, okay, as long as there is a role suitable for you, we will cooperate again." Nie Wei did not expect Brother Hu to ask this, secretly sighing that this is also a good person, he is really able to seize opportunities.
However, Hu Ge is indeed a rare good actor. Even if he is not an artist under the company, Nie Wei has no objection to cooperating with him.
Then some small awards were presented, but Nie Wei did not win any more. Nie Wei was not disappointed. After all, there are still several big awards waiting for him. As long as he wins one, this trip to Taiwan will be a fruitful one.
However, when it comes to harvest, in addition to the crew of "Your Name", the crew of "If Love" where Zhou Xun is located must be. So far, they have also won the Best Photography, Best Costume Design and Best Sound Effects Awards, and they also have three trophies in their arms.
And the competition between the two crews will continue. For example, Zhou Xun is also nominated for the Best Actress Award, and will compete with Shu Chang, Lin Yifei and Liu Jialing for the title of Best Actress.
Then in the Best Director Award, Chen Kexin, the director of "If Love", is also nominated, and is the main opponent of Nie Wei and Ning Hao.
And the last Best Picture, "Your Name" still has to face the competition of "If Love".
It can be said that this year's Golden Horse Awards is a contest between two crews. It depends on who can overwhelm whom in the end, whether the backup director is unparalleled and surpasses the master, or the senior director sits on the Diaoyutai, fearless of the storm behind him.
Several hours have passed, and the award was finally presented to the Best Actress.
With the two heavyweight guests Yang Caini and Guo Fucheng taking the stage, everyone at the scene also knew that the highlight was finally about to kick off.
"Hello everyone." After the two greeted each other, they smiled and teased each other. There was a reason why the Golden Horse Awards chose this pair of duo to be the award presenters. This year they collaborated on a play called "Father and Son". Guo Fucheng was even nominated for the Best Actor and was one of Nie Wei's competitors.
Sure enough, as soon as they came on stage, the two showed an unusual tacit understanding between guests, teasing each other about the image in the movie and livening up the atmosphere.
While the guests on the stage were teasing each other, Nie Wei held Shu Chang's hand tightly. Just when the guests came on stage, Nie Wei clearly felt that Shu Chang's body tensed up instantly. Although she always said "follow fate" before coming, it was obvious that her thoughts and words were inconsistent.
Nie Wei held Shu Chang's hand without hesitation at this moment, as if this could give her strength.
Thanks to Qiu Ye Liang Yue, the whole body in white and 0773 for their support.
