Chapter 1635 Award

Prizes are awarded one after another.

Everyone in the audience felt drowsy listening to the beautiful Italian of the host on stage and the occasional few words of English uttered by the guests.

No way, I can barely understand a few words in English, but Italian is like listening to a book from heaven, I don't understand it at all.

The crew members were a little sleepy, and only a few people such as Zhu Xiaoce and Lu Zhiyao were still watching with anticipation.

After the previous experience, everyone knows that anyone who is notified to come to the awarding session will basically have an award in their account.

It's just a bigger or smaller issue.

However, in terms of everyone's expectations for the movie "The Future You Choose", winning a small award is equivalent to not winning.

Still have to win an award with sufficient weight, such as Best Actor or the Golden Lion Award, which is considered a historic breakthrough for everyone.

Before coming, the crew also made up for the relevant knowledge about the Venice Film Festival.

This is the oldest and oldest film festival in the world.

As the pioneer of the film festival, the Venice Film Festival has a relatively deep historical background and its own cultural core.

To sum up briefly: the Venice Film Festival is more inclined to individuals and encourages innovation; it encourages bold experiments in audio-visual language; it pays more attention to the ideological nature of the film.

In addition, the Venice Film Festival also prefers Asian films and pays more attention to Chinese films. Many Chinese-language films have been favored by the Venice Film Festival, and two of them won the Golden Lion Award for Best Picture. Another director won a lifetime achievement award at the Venice Film Festival.

The Chinese jury also has a certain influence at the Venice Film Festival. After the crew arrived, they also met and communicated with several Chinese judges. Everyone has high expectations for the movie "The Future You Choose". Hope he can continue and even surpass the success of "Better Tomorrow".

After all, the two films have certain similarities in subject matter and story, and "The Future You Choose" can be regarded as a comprehensively improved version of "Better Tomorrow".

Awards went by one by one, and the crew yawned and chatted in a low voice. Because the previous awards are meaningless, and the name "The Future You Choose" was not read.

Huang Sibo also felt bored. After all, only directors and actors would take the stage to accept the award, and it had nothing to do with him as the person in charge.

He came to the film festival purely for soy sauce.

As a result, at this moment, he suddenly felt Lu Zhiyao, who was sitting on his left, tensed. Then I heard the second half of the English award speech.

".for Lu Zhiyao!"

Although Huang Sibo could hardly hear Lu Zhiyao's name, the pinyin of Lu Zhiyao was directly typed on the big screen.

At present, nearly 90% of the actors and directors in the Mainland use Pinyin as their English names. This is also a manifestation of growing cultural self-confidence.

And it is especially important to note that the order of the first name and last name will not be reversed.

The awards that Lu Zhiyao received were also displayed on the big screen.

There is no doubt that it is the best actor, after all, he will not be able to win another award.

Lu Zhiyao had already buttoned up his suit very elegantly and got up on stage.

The crew of "The Future You Choose" immediately boiled over and applauded with the audience. It was a surprise to win this award.

"I really won the best actor, so now I can finally be said to be a real actor!"

"Indeed, the previous awards were all domestic awards, and the weight was still a little worse."

"Hey, isn't it reasonable to win a best actor based on Lu Zhiyao's acting skills in our movie?"

Lu Zhiyao came to the stage and said in Chinese, "First of all, I wish everyone a good evening. This is my first time at the Venice Film Festival. I didn't expect to receive this honor. It makes me feel very honored."

"Special thanks to the jury for this honor. Here, I would also like to thank my director, the entire crew, and my fans. This film is a test and a great opportunity for me... …”

After thanking all the important people, Lu Zhiyao changed his words.

"Here I would also like to thank the film's investor and top producer, President Pei. For me, Pei always digs my "Bole", and it is under the step-by-step guidance of President Pei that I can pass a character Continue to hone your acting skills and eventually gain worldwide recognition."

"In the movie "The Future You Choose", the acting skills I have been accumulating finally got the best stage to show. I hope I can give you more wonderful performances and create more classic characters in the future. Thank you again Everyone."

The translator on the side translated Lu Zhiyao's words into Italian, and the audience burst into applause again.

When Lu Zhiyao returned to his seat, the crew expressed their congratulations one after another, with happy smiles on their faces.

"Okay, the international best actor deserves his name! Once we win this award, it's enough for us to come to this film festival."

"It is true that there is a best actor, and there will be enough topicality when I go back. Just relying on the acting like a movie star, plus our story, and it will be released after we go back, the box office will definitely not be low."

"It's not worth it, it's worth it."

Everyone circulated Lu Zhiyao's trophy, and everyone was very satisfied.

After all, although the award for Best Actor is a personal honor, it is also an honor for the entire crew of the film. After all, without a good story, it is difficult for an actor to win the Best Actor Award no matter how much he plays.

Good acting still depends on the plot.

The goal of the crew to participate in this film festival is achieved. After all, it is the more weighty award for best actor, not the insignificant award.

After getting excited. The crew fell into a state of weakness.

When the Best Director Award was awarded, Zhu Xiaoce straightened his back, but it was not awarded to him, which made him a little disappointed.

Not only because of the failure of their own awards, but also because the bigger the award, the lower the possibility of winning.

Finally, the award ceremony has reached the final stage, even the Silver Lion Award has been awarded, and the name of "The Future You Choose" still does not appear.

At this time, the mood of the crew was somewhat contradictory, a bit like the mood of the employees who didn't get a small award when the final award was presented at the annual meeting.

On the one hand, I feel a little guilty and feel that the biggest award is unlikely to fall on my head like this, but there is a strong expectation in my heart.

Either that's a sloppy end, or a big win. This feeling is so exciting.

For the "Future You Choose" crew, taking back a best actor is considered a pass, and it's a worthwhile trip. But it's a pity that there is only one award.

After all, the crew felt that the movie "The Future You Choose" is good everywhere, and it can almost be said to be perfect. Even winning the Golden Lion is reasonable.

The host said a lot of words in Italian, and then looked at the presenter on the opposite side of the stage, to the effect that he should be asked to announce the final award.

The guest of honor is a naive fat man and a world-renowned director.

He said with a smile: "Let me name the winning entry directly."

"Zhu Xiaoce, for "The future you choose"!"

As soon as this statement came out, the audience immediately burst into warm applause and cheers.

Zhu Xiaoce's hanging heart finally let go, followed by the ecstasy that flooded into his heart.

The music sounded, and in the warm applause and cheers of the audience, Zhu Xiaoce calmed down his emotions. Pretend to be very calm and slowly walk to the stage.

After hugging the old white-haired judge on the stage, Zhu Xiaoce took over the highest award from him - a little golden lion with wings.

After a long photo session of about two minutes, Zhu Xiaoce came to the podium with the little golden lion in his arms. The warm applause gradually subsided.

Zhu Xiaoce adjusted the microphone a little. Said the acceptance speech that had been repeated in my heart many times before.

"First of all, I would like to thank the judges for their recognition and love for this film. The film "The Future You Choose" is a film that condenses the efforts of the crew, is full of profound connotation and rich imagination, and at the same time, he is rooted in realistic materials. , has absorbed valuable nutrition. For me, he is a highlight in my entire directing career, and it is also a milestone for me to break through myself again and challenge to a higher art palace."

"I would like to thank the entire crew, my very lovely cast. And the audience who have always supported us..."

"Besides that, all of our crew would like to thank Mr. Pei in particular. It is your spiritual connotation that gives the film its soul. The real events in reality give the film flesh and blood. Without you, this film would not have been possible. will be born."

"So this award is the result of the joint efforts of all of us, including all the fans who support Tenda Group. I would like to share this honor with you."

"thank you all!"

There was thunderous applause again.

At the same time, various news reports were sent back to China for the first time. The domestic film won the Golden Lion Award, the highest award at the Venice Film Festival, which is definitely a stroke worth highlighting in the film industry.

...

...

Sunday, September 8.

As soon as Pei Qian got up, he hurriedly took his mobile phone to check the situation of the Venice Film Festival last night.

He was a little conflicted.

As a friend, he actually hoped that Zhu Xiaoce and the others would win a small award, such as best actor and best director, such awards are actually acceptable.

After all, these people are indeed making movies down-to-earth, and being able to win awards is well deserved.

Just don't cause the movie box office to explode.

As a result, Pei Qian didn't expect to receive several push notifications as soon as he turned on his phone.

"The domestic film won the Venice Golden Lion Award for the best film for the seventh time! 》

"Lu Zhiyao won the best actor, and the actor was finally crowned! 》

Director Zhu Xiaoce: Thank you Mr. Pei for giving the movie a soul! 》
