Chapter 654: Master Hu, Bai Yulan lowers her proud head
Oriental Art Center.
Magnolia Awards Ceremony.
The night was full of stars.
However, the most eye-catching was not Guli Nazha's stunning appearance.
Nor was it Zhou Yutang's comeback to the small screen after twelve years.
Everyone's eyes fell on Zhou Yutang, who was accompanied by Ni Ni, who was wearing a blue suit and skirt and slightly exposed her beautiful legs, and Tang Lijun, former deputy secretary-general of the Magic City TV Festival, to the awards ceremony.
As the most watched man in the domestic entertainment industry, the Grand Governor has recently stirred up the storm in Shanghai.
He just liked the post questioning the Magnolia Awards.
It caused a major earthquake in the entire Shanghai circle.
Who would have thought that the Magnolia Organizing Committee would start a re-examination overnight before the awards ceremony, quickly complete the process, and immediately change the nomination.
Later, a notice was even issued, stating that the Magnolia Awards adheres to the principles of fairness and justice, and sincerely apologizes to Teacher Li Xuejian and the audience.
"Sister Tang, I'm sorry to bother you this time."
Sitting in the front row, Zhou Yutang expressed her sincere gratitude to Tang Lijun.
This time, Bai Yulan bowed her head. The Grand Commander showed his edge and used a lot of connections.
Tang Lijun, who once managed the two festivals in Shanghai, played a role in threading the needle.
"Yutang, the organizing committee did not do a good job this time."
Tang Lijun smiled and said, "As long as the result is good, it doesn't matter if the process is a little tortuous."
This woman is not simple.
Ni Ni listened quietly beside her without interrupting.
In terms of appearance, Tang Lijun is not as good as any of Zhou Yutang's beauties.
But the charm of some women is not only reflected in their appearance.
As a strong woman who once managed the two festivals in Shanghai, she is now the vice president of SMG after leaving the system.
She has high IQ and EQ, and there are things worth learning from her in dealing with people.
After chatting for a while, Tang Lijun went to answer a phone call.
"There are quite a few acquaintances today."
Zhou Yutang looked back and saw that Young Master Zhou was also winking at him.
Tonight, she wore a white backless dress that showed off her shoulders. Although she didn't have a big ponytail, the transparent tulle design on her waist and back also made Young Master Zhou look more feminine.
"You are awesome."
Zhou Yutang deduced what Young Master Zhou wanted to say through her expression and mouth shape.
Many acquaintances came to the scene, including Zheng Xiaolong, Liu Heping, Tong Yaya, Yan Ni, Xiao Songjia, Huo Siyan, Chen Xiao, Chen Baoguo, and Jiang Xin.
"Teacher Tian."
Zhou Yutang saw Tian Zhuangzhuang coming towards him, and he quickly got up from his seat and took the initiative to greet him.
He had received the news in advance that Li Xuejian had been ill recently and was being hospitalized. Tian Zhuangzhuang was his cousin, so he attended the Magnolia Awards on his behalf.
Tian Zhuangzhuang's skinny hands tightly grasped Zhou Yutang's arms, and said with emotion: "Yutang, thank you for your hard work."
"I didn't do anything."
Zhou Yutang smiled innocently at Old Tian.
The master and apprentice looked at each other, and everything was self-evident.
After a few simple chats, they returned to their respective seats. However, Ni Ni carefully noticed that Tian Zhuangzhuang's expression was very complicated.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
If Zhou Yutang hadn't mediated, it would be a fantasy to want Bai Yulan to bow her head.
In fact, Tangren's No. 1 was also nominated for the Best Supporting Actor tonight, but he was still catching up with the progress of the "Pretender" crew and couldn't go to the scene in person.
He also heard about the Bai Yulan incident and sent a message to Zhou Yutang, praising him for his good work.
The award ceremony started soon.
Compared with previous years, this year's Bai Yulan specially added the award for the best seasonal TV program in the variety show category.
In the end, the award went to Mango TV's signature variety show "I Am a Singer", which surprised Zhou Yutang.
Guli Nazha won the Internet Popular Actress Award as expected, while the Internet Popular Actor Award went to Jiangdong Xiaosheng Chen Xiao.
Last year's "Love O2O" became a hit, and later the number of broadcasts in South Korea, Southeast Asia and other places was quite explosive, with an amazing long-tail effect.
The Best Supporting Actress Award went to Qin Hailu of "Red Sorghum", and the Best Supporting Actor Award went to Feng Yuanzheng, who gave a wonderful performance in "Old Farmers".
"Teacher Feng doesn't look that fierce."
Ni Ni muttered softly beside her, and Zhou Yutang was a little amused, knowing that she was talking about the ferocious expression of Teacher Feng that was still on the hot search.
"No Quiet in Peking" won the Best Screenwriter and Best TV Series, and the Best Director Award went to Director Mao Weining of "Ordinary World".
Zhou Gongzi returned to the small screen again and won the title of Best Actress, which brought the atmosphere of tonight's award ceremony to a small climax.
"Thank you Director Zheng Xiaolong for giving me such a rich and dramatic role. This is my luck. I also thank all my colleagues. The colleagues who filmed the TV series are particularly hard-working."
Zhou Gongzi's unique smoky voice, after speaking in a conventional manner, rarely joked: "Boss Zhou is sitting in the audience. I heard that his new play is still casting. Consider me."
Some time ago, Jiangdong released several film and television projects, which set off a bloody storm in the circle.
Even the big stars from all walks of life have been tearing each other apart for a long time, and they have been sending out negative press releases from their opponents. Zhou Xun's job application on the spot was unexpected by many people.
The applause was accompanied by a burst of laughter.
The camera was very spiritual to Zhou Yutang who was talking to Tang Lijun next to him.
He was tall and straight, and still had the handsome face of Asia.
Apart from her good figure and good looks, Zhou Yutang's majestic demeanor is even more impressive.
Aware of the camera, Zhou Yutang waved to the stage and showed a dazzling smile.
When the TV King award was revealed tonight, many people were surprised again.
Chen Baoguo of "Old Farmer" and Li Xuejian of "Hey, Old Man!" both won the Magnolia Best Actor Award.
"It's a double yolk."
"Have you ever had a double yolk before?"
"Back then, "The Hidden", "Golden Wedding" and "Crossing the Guandong" were all double yolks for TV King and TV Queen!"
"Take last year's Magnolia, Zhou Yutang's "In the Name of the People", Wu Gang and Zhang Zhijian won the Best Supporting Actor together."
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to have a double yolk.
Only when the jury believes that the performances of two nominees are equally outstanding and the selection results are difficult to choose, will they make a careful decision to award the prize together.
There was a lot of discussion in the audience, and many eyes suddenly fell on Zhou Yutang.
At this time, Zhou Yutang looked up at the moon, and looked at the wonderful performance clips projected on the big screen on the stage with a focused expression.
Chen Baoguo's acting skills are beyond doubt.
In classic TV series such as "The Mansion Gate", "The Emperor of Han Wu", and "The Ming Dynasty 1566", he has contributed extremely wonderful performances.
This time, "Old Farmer" has even surpassed himself, and this TV King trophy is well deserved.
As for Li Xuejian, he played a lonely, stubborn and lovely demented old man Liu Ertie in the TV series "Hey, Old Man!"
At this time, a very explosive performance was projected on the big screen.
This lonely and stubborn old man wanted to drink, opened the bottle cap, and wanted to drink directly from the bottle mouth.
But because his hands were shaking so badly, he couldn't drink it into his mouth.
He clenched the bottle with both hands and drank again, but touched the loose teeth.
In the end, he had to use a large-caliber tea can and a towel to drink.
Good actors, that's it.
There was no line in the whole process, but he was able to perfectly convey the loneliness and sadness of this old man through other ways, and aroused resonance in the audience.
Wow!
The scene suddenly broke out into a warm applause, as surging as the tide.
The two old men were humble to each other, and it was Chen Baoguo who gave his acceptance speech first. He achieved the grand slam of the three major awards tonight, and he was a little excited.
Tian Zhuangzhuang, who was wearing a Zhongshan suit, took the microphone from the host with a meticulous expression: "This is my first time standing on the Magnolia podium, and I am accepting the award for others. I am very surprised and very happy."
"Li Xuejian should be very happy too. He has a minor health problem and is currently hospitalized for treatment. Let me attend this award ceremony on his behalf. I am honored to win the award. Thank you for the fairness and justice of the organizing committee."
"Also thank you to all the staff of the "Hey, Old Man!" crew. This award belongs to all of you."
After Tian Zhuangzhuang finished speaking, Zhou Yutang led the applause.
The applause at the scene suddenly rang like thunder.
At this point, the Magnolia Awards Ceremony gradually came to an end.
Tonight, there was also a "Magnolia Outstanding Contribution Award" and it was given to Ma Shaohua.
After the process was completed, Zhou Yutang and Tang Lijun went to the cocktail party arranged by Magnolia.
"Yutang, President Su is abroad and will return to Shanghai tomorrow. He wants to meet you."
"Well, Sister Tang, you arrange it."
After greeting several key figures, Zhou Yutang was about to leave early, but was pulled aside by Guo Jingyu, one of the judges of this year's Magnolia, to talk.
"President Zhou, you did a great job this time."
"Teacher Guo, I didn't do anything."
Zhou Yutang smiled lightly: "Magnolia is fair and just, the whole procedure is correct, there is nothing wrong."
"Ah, yes, yes, the procedure is correct."
Guo Jingyu was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "If the procedure was not correct, I was ready to go all out and fight the organizing committee tonight."
"Ah?"
Zhou Yutang looked at this brother with a strange expression.
There was no smell of alcohol on his body, which showed that he had not drunk much. How could he be so drunk?
Guo Jingyu opened up the conversation and pulled Zhou Yutang to chat.
Zhou Yutang did not know him well before.
After a detailed chat, they felt that they had a lot in common.
This guy was born in an intellectual family, but for various reasons he did not graduate from high school. Later, he joined the Chengde Drama Troupe, doing odd jobs in the drama group while writing film and television scripts.
After that, he went north to Beijing and worked with Huang Jianzhong by chance. He was the deputy director of the CCTV version of "Swordsman".
Then he went out to work alone. "Iron Pear Flower", "Red Lady", "Brave Heart" and other period dramas were all from his hands.
Steadily holding the remote control of parents, the queen mother of Zhou Yutang's family is a fan of Guo Jingyu's dramas.
Jiangdong Entertainment is now in its heyday. As soon as the news of film and television projects was released, the TV station came to the door.
Guo Jingyu's period drama project also had a similar effect. Before filming started, major platforms heard about it.
But if you think that he is just a conservative who can keep the basic market of period dramas, you are wrong.
Guo Jingyu brought out a disciple named Xiao Jixiangtian.
Before Jiangdong, there was a web drama "Soul Ferry" that made iQiyi full of traffic last year, and Xiao Jixiangtian was the screenwriter.
And Guo Jingyu's Changxin Media is the producer behind the scenes.
It has to be said that there are really hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the film and television industry.
This person can be upright and extraordinary, calm in doing things, and straightforward in character.
After just this conversation, Zhou Yutang believed 70% of it. If he hadn't done it himself, this old man would have dared to speak out for Li Xuejian and attack Magnolia in person.
"Mr. Zhou, we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."
"There will be a chance."
"boss."
On the way back to the hotel, Ni Ni, who had done some back-up, asked curiously: "Changxin Media seems to be a subsidiary of the Internet giant Perfect World."
"Do you really want to cooperate with him?"
She rarely sees someone who can follow Zhou Yutang's thoughts, and it can even be said that they feel like old friends at first sight.
"Who can say for sure?"
Zhou Yutang added Guo Jingyu’s WeChat account and chuckled: “Maybe there will be a suitable project.”
Magnolia came to an end, and the news updated simultaneously that night occupied the headlines of major entertainment portals.
"Haha, the sky has eyes. It seems that my objection is still useful."
"Okay, okay, that's right. Teacher Chen Baoguo did a great job. Teacher Li's performance is well-deserved for the award."
"What a good Kun Kun, the strange governor who is trying to get rid of the horse has caused the labor and management to accompany the entire organizing committee to work overtime for several days."
"Are the people upstairs really insiders?"
"Magnolia has already issued a notice, how could it be possible that Zhou Yutang left because of the retrial process?"
"That's right, Jiangdong Navy, please take note, the entertainment industry does not allow such awesome people."
"Haha, if you don't want to explain, you might as well look at who the woman next to the Governor is."
"What a pair of beautiful legs, are you talking about Ni Ni?"
"You don't even know Tang Lijun?"
Netizens in online forums and forums were discussing it like crazy, revealing all the details.
Damimi, who was also very concerned about this matter, knew something about it after receiving the news from Zhou Yutang:
"He really did it."
Zeng Jia, who had been eating melon for several days, was also shocked.
In all the years she has been in the industry, this is the first time she has seen someone who can convince Magnolia.
However, she did not dwell on this. Whether Li Xuejian won the award or not, it had nothing to do with her.
Zeng Jia was more concerned about other things: "Mimi, the film festival is about to open. Have you made an appointment with Boss Zhou?"
"We have an appointment the day after tomorrow."
Yang Mi looked down at her phone and pursed her lips: "The day after tomorrow, the first sister is coming."
Zeng Jia didn't take it seriously, and said in a faintly excited tone: "This time when we go to the Magic City, you must remember that matter. It is very important to us."
"Well, I understand."
Yang Mi nodded solemnly.
Recently, all the eyes of the industry have fallen on the Magic City.
A TV festival plus an international film festival, supported by official publicity, brought together more than half of the entire Chinese film and television industry.
Make this bustling international city more lively than ever.
The most discussed topic in private, excluding the booming stock market, is the Magnolia scandal that just ended.
Although Magnolia’s announced selection process includes submitting objections to the organizing committee for re-evaluation.
But the final right of interpretation always lies in the hands of the organizing committee.
Even if the review is re-evaluated, the results will not change in any way. This is an unspoken rule.
But the noble Lord Magnolia actually lowered his head.
This incident caused a shock in the Shanghai circle, and even people at the bottom of the entertainment industry felt that something was unusual.
It's just that their access to information is limited. At the moment, they are just hearsay and various speculations without knowing the truth.
But people in the upper circle have long had channels to know that Zhou Yutang was behind the scenes.
"It's really a toss-up."
At night, in a private club in Magic City, Mr. Wang from Huayi held a cigar in his mouth, crossed his legs and commented: "I have only been in Magic City for a few days, and yet such a big thing happened."
"The mainstay of the Suhu Gang, the whole Shanghai circle is flat."
Feng Xiaogang was also secretly frightened.
Don't look at the little steel gun who says he doesn't care about awards.
But when I have a chance to win a prize, I can lick it better than anyone else.
It's just that every time he gets a hot face but a cold butt, he can only get angry afterwards and complain and bicker on the Internet.
Who has ever seen someone like Zhou Yutang, who usually has no reputation for being romantic, and does not show off his appearance, but with a little bit of prominence, he has already easily defeated Magnolia.
"If you don't mention this, let me bring you a drink first."
Mr. Xiao Wang stood up and took the initiative, raised the red wine glass in his hand, and said with a bright face: "I wish Huayi Company's market value will successfully exceed 100 billion, and it will get stronger and stronger!"
"cheers!"
…………
"The filming of "Xiu Chun Knife 2" was completed today, the crew held an open media day, and many stills were released!"
After nearly half a year of filming, Lu Yang's second drama finally came to a successful conclusion.
A large number of stills were released in advance, including Zhou Yutang's imperial hero, Huang Xiaoming's stern Shen Lian in a flying fish suit embroidered with a spring knife, and Liu Shishi's red-dressed warrior Zhou Miaotong from the Jiaofang Division...
The previous film can be regarded as the most successful martial arts movie IP in recent years, and the sequel has naturally aroused the expectations of movie fans.
Liu Shishi was still dealing with the media. He had a business event the day after tomorrow and would not arrive in the Magic City until the day after tomorrow.
Huang Xiaoming flew straight to Hong Kong to say goodbye to Qin Lan and get married, and the news of shopping at the Landmark Plaza in Central just became a hot search topic.
This couple has been making waves in the stock market recently and has made a lot of money.
On the evening of the 13th, the red carpet ceremony for the opening ceremony of the Magic City International Film Festival was held at the Magic City Grand Theater.
This time, the superiors were in charge and wanted to do a good job, so the situation was huge.
More than 400 filmmakers from home and abroad gathered at the Shanghai International Film Festival.
The stars shine brightly.
The red carpet is Teacher Fan’s comfort zone.
Today, she made a stunning appearance in a Stephane Rolland red couture dress, and walked the red carpet with the hottest star in Taiwan, Wu Zun, and the king of pop, Leon Lai.
Nazha changed into a black sequined couture dress today, and swayed and sparkled as she walked, like a mermaid.
Others, such as Guo Biting, Zhang Zilin, Liu Yan, Yang Ying, and Zhang Xinyu, also competed with each other in beauty, showing off their biceps, legs, or backs.
It was a feast for the eyes of netizens.
Except for Chen Shishi, the three major domestic directors, Lao Mouzi and Xiao Gangpao were all present.
Jackie Chan, Liu Huohua, Zhou Xingxing, Gong Li, Zhang Ziyi, Liang Jiahui, Guo Fucheng, and Liu Dehua
Foreign stars such as Tom Hiddleston and Sophie Marceau also came to support the event.
Zhou Yutang made his final appearance, and walked across the red carpet with great strides to the cheers of the tsunami.
After entering the backstage, Teacher Fan kept looking over here, just wanting to find a way in.
Guli Nazha was guarding closely, and from time to time she glared at Teacher Fan as if to protest.
The young calves are not afraid of tigers. The two beauties from Northern Xinjiang have a feud with Teacher Fan. This time, Reba said that she would teach the old woman a lesson, and Nazha felt that she could do it.
However, Zhou Yutang really didn't have a chance to chat with them.
He greeted the big guys in the system first.
Around him, there was a circle of big directors, in addition to Tian Zhuangzhuang and Cao Baoping, there was also Hou Xiaoxian from Taiwan Province.
Even Feng Xiaogang came over to say hello. I don't know what medicine the little steel cannon took, but he grinned and praised: "Yutang, I think Jiangdong has a good chance to win the Golden Goblet Award this year."
"Oh?"
Zhou Yutang glanced at him lightly: "Then I'll borrow Director Feng's good words."
Soon, the official opening process began, and Magic City No. 1 took the stage to give a speech.
The opening film was Er Dongsheng's "I'm Nobody", which was really Nobody. It can't be said to be mediocre, but it can also be said to have no highlights.
After the opening ceremony, Zhou Yutang was discussing the arrangements for the premiere of "The Tuner" with Cao Baoping, and Ni Ni suddenly came over and whispered a few words in his ear.
Today, Tang Yan appeared on the red carpet as the leading actress of "Business School Partners".
It was said to be a Sino-Korean co-production blockbuster, but Zhou Yutang was too lazy to learn more about it. Just by hearing the name, he knew that it was a flop.
"Tang Yan is wearing fake ES couture."
"Are you sure?"
"Netizens have already dug it out online."
"..."
Today's red carpet was live broadcast.
Generally, in such occasions, the star's team will arrange hot search press releases.
The red carpet here has just finished, and Tang Yan's team has already arranged several hot searches in advance, such as " # Tang Yan's ice blue dress is elegant and full of fairy spirit # ", " # Tang Tang is so beautiful # "
This generation of netizens is comparable to Conan. Some people who are suspected to be insiders in the fashion circle have dug out from various details that what Tang Yan was wearing was not the real ES couture.
Soon, # Tang Yan's fake dress # became the hot search.
It is ironic no matter how you look at it.
Female stars compete with each other for status and performance, and they are fighting for that breath. No one wants to be outshined on the red carpet.
ES couture dresses are very prestigious in the fashion circle. At the beginning, Da Tiantian failed to borrow one, so she was furious and spent several million to buy one directly, shocking the entertainment industry.
Nazha wore an ES new season dress at the Magnolia Awards last night.
But wearing a fake ES dress is a bit embarrassing.
In fact, when Tang Yan Studio was connecting with the clothing studio, they were fooled.
In response, Tang Yan Studio quickly issued a statement on Weibo, admitting that the dress was fake and strongly condemned the clothing studio that provided the fake brand dress.
"Ji Rujing's ability is still a little worse than Zeng Jia."
Zhou Yutang frowned and shook his head.
He has shares in Mixing and Tangyan Studio.
He is very evenly balanced. He has no involvement in the operation of both sides. He just lets them run freely. However, the gap is gradually emerging.
Yang Mi can carry Mixing Company forward alone. With Zeng Jiajia and Zhao Ruoyao managing it, the company's overall operation is in good condition and has reached the stage of financing and listing.
However, Tangyan's personal studio is still standing still. It is so proud of taking on "A Chinese Odyssey 3".
At this moment.
Zhou Yutang suddenly received a call.
