From traffic to movie star

Chapter 397 Dare to ask where is the way
"Wei Xun Shanghai Film Festival is crowned emperor with "Let the Bullets Fly"!"

"Wei Xun broke the record for the birth of the youngest actor of the mainstream film festival in China, but he deserves it!"

"At the age of 28, I have won my second Best Actor trophy, and the No. 1 award for young actor in the mainland film industry!"

"Shanghai Film Festival's newly promoted actor Wei Xun delivered his acceptance speech: Thank you Zhai Qing and a mysterious old friend."

"In the United States with "Chain Saw", Wei Xun's unrestrained life is enough to amaze everyone."

When the best actor of the Shanghai Film Festival was announced, the Internet was full of joy, and various media rushed to report.

And in the draft photos posted by the media, Wei Xun was standing on the stage with the best actor trophy of the Shanghai Film Festival, smiling brightly.

This is the second best actor trophy won by Wei Xun after he was crowned emperor at the Flower Market Film Festival the previous year.

Compared with the Huashi Film Festival, which includes national awards, the Shanghai Film Festival is obviously more authoritative and professional.With this trophy in hand, Wei Xun can finally straighten his back and formally step into the ranks of top actors, becoming an existence alongside Bai Qianchi, Shi Fan and others in terms of performance achievements and performance awards.

And this year Wei Xun was only 28 years old.

In the Chinese film industry, compared to actresses, the competition for awards between male actors is more intense and cruel.

At present, apart from Wei Xun, there has never been any male actor who can win the best actor laurel of the three major mainland film festivals before the age of 30.

To a certain extent, the academic judges in our country are even more staid and pedantic than the three major European Academy judges and the Oscar Academy judges, because looking at the selection of the best actor awards in the world, the default rule of not granting the emperor before the age of 30, It also only exists in China.

And now, Wei Xun broke this rule.

It's just because there are too many dazzling things about him. A best actor at the Shanghai Film Festival cannot compare with his tens of billions in box office and his achievements in Hollywood.

But for Wei Xun to win the best actor of the Shanghai Film Festival so early, some netizens still feel that it is unusual.

"It seems that the theoretical collision between Wei Xun and Tchaifusky still affected the Chinese academics."

"With the affirmation of world-class masters, plus Wei Xun's super powerful acting skills, if this award is still delayed, it will be too ugly."

"Wei Xun returned to China with the honor of "Chain Saw". It is also the general trend to win the award. What's more, the Shanghai Film Festival had a grudge with Wei Xun seven years ago. It is estimated that the organizing committee does not want to quarrel with Wei Xun at this time." Let Wei Xun fall out."

The fact that Wei Xun won Best Actor at the Shanghai Film Festival has been discussed for a while on the Internet.

But soon everyone was distracted by another gossip.

Because the new year, the Year of the Monkey, is coming soon.

And some big Vs in the circle began to spread the news that Wen Tao, the chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala, intends to invite Wei Xun to present a program on the Spring Festival Gala.

The news spread well, and it is well known that Wen Tao and Wei Xun are old friends for many years, so once the news was released, many people began to look forward to it.

After all, Wei Xun has become more and more hidden in the past few years. He does not accept commercial endorsements, does not appear on variety shows, and hardly appears in front of the camera except for awarding awards and promoting movies.

Being able to see Wei Xun on TV during the Chinese New Year is enough to surprise many fans.

And Wei Xun won Best Actor at the Shanghai Film Festival, and after returning to Beijing from Shanghai in a low-key manner, he received his old friend Wen Tao at home.

That's right, this is Wen Tao's first visit, and it's naturally because of Wei Xun's show on the Spring Festival Gala.

Chi Tang went to work, Wei Xun was the only one at home.

Wen Tao came with a bottle of wine, and said with a smile: "I have to meet another group of sketch actors in the afternoon, so I can't drink too much."

Now it is about to enter January, and the Spring Festival Gala is less than two months away. As this year's chief director, Wen Tao has been really busy recently.

Wei Xun also smiled and said, "Then drink less."

There were only two men in the family, and they were too lazy to cook, so Wei Xun asked the driver Lin Cheng to order a few dishes for him.

Wen Tao opened the wine, poured a small glass for himself and Wei Xun, and asked a little curiously: "You said before that you planned to make a singing show? Did you write an original song recently?"

Wei Xun smiled and said, "Yes, I just had some ideas."

"We've known each other for so many years, so I'll tell you something directly. The current Spring Festival Gala is getting more and more difficult every year. Especially the singing and dancing shows are quite unpleasant. Besides, the chief director's The job is really hard to do."

Wen Tao sighed, and said: "I was thinking, anyway, you are also a screenwriter and director, so you can either produce a comedy sketch yourself, or I can find those master sketch writers for you, and cooperate with them across borders. Recently, I have let some rumors spread on the Internet. Everyone is looking forward to your Spring Festival Gala. If you only sing at that time, I'm afraid it will be..."

I am afraid that the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

Wei Xun understood the meaning of Wen Tao's words, and said with a smile: "Actually, the program I put on is not just singing. Has Director Wen read "Journey to the West"?"

"Then I must have read it." Mentioning this, Wen Tao was amazed again: "I never thought that you would write such a wild and unconstrained book."

"It's just that I had some ideas at the time and wanted to create a mythical world, so I just tried it."

Wei Xun said with a smile: "The program I'm showing this time is related to "Journey to the West"."

A program related to "Journey to the West"?

After Wen Tao heard about it, his curiosity was obviously aroused: "How to say?"

Wei Xun got up and went back to the study, took out a few pages of drawings, and walked out with the guitar in his arms, handed the drawings to Wen Tao, and explained: "Look, these are my drawings based on "Journey to the West". The image of the characters that came out, and I also wrote a theme song for "Journey to the West."

Wen Tao took those pictures of people, and after reading them, his face was filled with surprise that couldn't be concealed.

On the blueprint, Monkey King was wearing a khaki Buddhist robe, wearing a golden hoop, and holding a wishful golden hoop stick, with a lively and flamboyant expression.

Then, the handsome Tang Monk with a benevolent face was riding on a white horse.

The honest Monk Sha carried the load without complaint, while Zhu Bajie had the body of a pig with a bulging belly and a naive smile.

This is simply to present the four master and apprentice in "Journey to the West" vividly with real people. It is worthy of being the original author of "Journey to the West"!
As a book fan who has read "Journey to the West", Wen Tao immediately matched the images of these four people with their respective roles. He suppressed the surprise in his eyes, looked up at Wei Xun, and asked expectantly: "And what about "Journey to the West"? The theme song of Journey to the West?"

Obviously, now Wen Tao has understood.

Wei Xun is planning to publish a live-action cosplay of "Journey to the West"!But I have to say, as far as the image of the four masters and apprentices on the drawing is, it really completely draws the characters in the book!
It's full of surprises.

"Yes, the name of this theme song is called "Dare to Ask Where the Way Is"."

Wei Xun said, fiddled with the guitar in his hand a little, and sang to Wen Tao: "You carry the burden, I lead the horse, welcome the sunrise, send the sunset away, smooth the rough road, make the road, fight the hardships and dangers , set off again, set off again..."
