I'm the director, I'm not bad

Chapter 333 331. Hints of Huabiao Award
After Xu Xin finished speaking...he realized that something was wrong.

In an instant, his face turned completely red.

"Uh... no... no no no..."

"...haha~"

Looking at the red-faced young man, Zhou Xingchi couldn't help laughing.

Then he stretched out his hand actively:
"Director Xu, there is an opportunity to work together in the future."

"...Huh? Uh...I..."

Abba ababa for a long time, Xu Xin who couldn't say a word held Zhou Xingchi's hand with both hands.

Shaking hard:

"Ok!"

Zhou Xingchi nodded with a smile, patted Xu Xin's arm again, and said to Jay Chou:

"I went over there first."

He actually came by himself.

This is what it means to end the meeting.

Jay Chou understood, and so did Xu Xin, so he quickly let go.

And Zhou Xingchi nodded slightly to Lang Lang, and then walked in the direction of Wu Yusen.

The two should be quite familiar with each other, and they both put on smiling faces when they met.

And the four of them just looked at Zhou Xingchi who was chatting with Wu Yusen...until Wang Sicong said:
"Old Xu."

"?"

"I lost my adult~"

"..."

Faced with these words, Xu Xin surprisingly did not refute, but murmured:

"One actor a year, Zhou Xingchi in a hundred years..."

"Tsk..."

Hearing this, Lang Lang sighed with emotion.

Although it was the first time for him to hear this sentence, he felt that it was... particularly appropriate.

Very apt.

……

The arrival of Zhou Xingchi seemed to have opened up everyone's chatterbox.

At this moment, the entire waiting area can be said to be overcrowded.

Even the crew of "Daye" is enough to come.

Xu Xin also saw the Third Master Han.

And a lot of big names.

Everyone is chatting with someone they know or want to make friends with, but the four people in the corner seem to be more or less out of place.

Occasionally, people who pass by, or want to make friends, want to find a topic to meet Xu Xin or ask Jay Chou for a photo, when they get close to hear a few people chatting, they will look at them with strange faces. eyes, and then left silently.

"What I can't accept the most is "Returning Soul Night"...Really, I really think that movie is quite scary. Until now, I dare not watch it alone...Many people watch that movie and find it amusing, but I think It's scary. Especially the place where you wipe the cow's tears..."

"I'm a bit against "Ouchi Secret Detective Ling Lingfa", and I can't explain why, but I always feel that the film has a strong taste of cult. It feels weird~"

"I'm okay with these two films!...Actually, I like to watch all his films, but if I really had to pick one that I dislike the most, it might be "A Chinese Journey to the West"~"

"I rely on..."

"..."

"……are you crazy?"

"Hey, please, I'm so obsessed with Zhu Yin... Every time I see Supreme Treasure let go of Zixia's hand because of the tightened headband, my heart will hurt~"

"If you want to say it like this, it seems to be like this."

""A Chinese Journey to the West" is indeed unsatisfactory, although the final song is very nice. But it would be even better if Zhizunbao and Zixia can be together. Although the final ending... I can barely accept it, but it is still quite helpless ..."

Four old men.

Just huddled in a pile, chatting about Zhou Xingchi's movies there.

Some of the people next to me were full of strange eyes.

What are these four people here for?
"Hey, I've made up my mind, how about we come tonight like this? Buy a bag of barbecue, bring wine, the four of us close the door, and each of us will watch a movie that we recommended by Master Xing. Chat while eating and drinking. chant~"

"Masterpiece Classics: Zhou Xingchi Chapter?"

"I think it's okay..."

After chatting and chatting, the few people who finally decided on the "schedule" for tonight felt at ease.

And the time is almost up.

The staff of Huabiao Awards over there came to inform the red carpet to start.

Everyone collected their thoughts and found out the number plate according to the instructions.

……

"On the 19th, "The Unspeakable Secret"...Teachers, wait a moment..."

Xu Xin, who was standing at the door, heard what the director said, and said directly:
"It's fine to go out together on 19 and 20, and we will go together."

"Well, okay...Director, is it okay to release "The Unspeakable Secret" on the 19th and "Lang Lang 20" on the 2008th?...OK."

He had already said hello in advance, but after confirming it again, soon after the host over there finished the interview, the director opened the curtain.

The four of them walked out together.

The appearance of Jay Chou immediately got cheers from fans on both sides of the road:
"what!!!!"

At the same time, the voice of the hostess also sounded:
"Next up is the director of "The Unspeakable Secret", Xu Xin, and the lead actor, Jay Chou, the king of Asia!"

"what!!!!!!!"

Amid the cheers, Jay Chou and Xu Xin waved to the cheering people on both sides.

Immediately afterwards, the male host's voice sounded:

"At the same time, Lang Lang, an internationally renowned pianist, and Mr. Wang Sicong, the representative of the publisher."

Hearing this, Wang Sicong glanced at Lang Lang.

"Enough buddy."

"Haha~"

Lang Lang grinned.

The four walked side by side along the red carpet in the direction of the host.

"I heard that the four are also very good friends in real life. It looks like they are all in uniform today."

"Yeah, welcome to the four of you~ The cheers from our fans at the scene were especially enthusiastic."

"This is also the charm of our Huabiao Awards..."

Under the words of the two hosts, in the end, the four of them came to the signature wall together.

They each took the pens and signed their signatures on the edge of the blackboard.

Then stand in a row in front of the camera.

"Welcome Director Xu Xin, welcome Jay Lun and Lang Lang."

After all, he is CCTV's own son, even the name is different.

Hearing this, Xu Xin nodded with a smile, and took the microphone from the host.

"Director Xu Xin came this time as the director of the film "The Unspeakable Secret". This is the first time he came to the Huabiao Awards. What kind of mood does he have?"

"...with the mentality of learning."

Xu Xin said modestly:
"There are many seniors and excellent filmmakers present. I came here with the mentality of learning from the seniors."

"What about the awards, what are your expectations?"

"It would be my honor to be recognized. But I know that I still have many shortcomings, so I hope that I can learn more from everyone."

His answer made the three people next to him start to murmur...

Old Xu started farting again.

These words are obviously not nutritious at all.

But anyway, his question was answered.

Naturally, the microphone was handed over to Jay Chou.

"Hi Jaylen..."

……

"The award-winning films of the No.13 Huabiao Awards for outstanding co-productions are... "Ip Man", "Red Cliff", "Painted Skin", "If You Are the One", "Secrets You Cannot Tell"! The award-winning films for excellent digital films are..." Eighteen Fingerprints", "The King of Chess and His Son", "XLGL Wen Chuan", "Horizontal and Vertical"! Congratulations!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Polite applause resounded in the venue.

While applauding, Xu Xin got up and walked towards the stage.

Under the strange eyes of the three people behind...

"It's the same as kebabs...a cow."

Wang Sicong muttered to Lang Lang beside him.

Lang Lang applauded and nodded.

It looks like he is nodding in agreement, but in fact...

"Now you know why Lao Xu said that the pork is divided?"

"Understood. It's not an exaggeration at all~"

Looking at the people including Xu Xin who came to the stage one after another, the two of them really looked "sentimental".

And not all the directors of the individual films are the ones presenting co-productions and digital films.For example, the king of Huayi attended as the honoree of "If You Are the One".

When Xu Xin met him on stage, they shook hands.

Feng Xiaogang in the audience was the representative of "Assembly" and did not choose to accept the award in this drama.

The nine people lined up, Xu Xin had no so-called concept of competing for the C position.

Just stand on the edge.

Listening to the introduction of each film at the scene, after introducing one by one, the hostess came to the stage with a tray.

The prize givers, Su Youpeng, Zhang Jiahui, and Miaopu, who played Bai Xiaonian in "The Wind", jointly distributed awards to these people.

Xu Xin was the first to be awarded the award because he stood on the edge.

Su Youpeng held the certificate of honor, held it in front of Xu Xin with both hands, and said with a smile:
"Director Xu, congratulations!"

"Thank you."

Xu Xin smiled and nodded.

Then, the nursery in the middle also held a trophy in the shape of Huabiao sculpture in both hands:
"Director Xu, congratulations."

"Thank you."

Finally, Zhang Jiahui's flowers.

Soon, after the awarding of the trophies to 9 people, amidst the sound of passionate music, everyone held the trophies and certificates in unison, waved to the crowd, and then walked off the stage from the right under the host's auspices.

All the way back to his seat, he heard many people say "Congratulations" to him.

Some know it, and some don't.

While returning to his seat with a polite smile all the way, he handed the certificate and trophy to Jay Chou immediately.

Just now, he missed the competition for the Outstanding Film Music Award, but was won by "Assembly".

"Comfort, comfort you."

Hearing this, Jay Chou smiled.

He doesn't really care about awards or not.

For him, when "Secret" is over, the wish in his heart has been fulfilled.

So after just looking at it, he handed the trophy to Wang Sicong and Lang Lang next to him.

Both looked at it too, then quickly lost interest.

Again.

Since pork is distributed, there is no such thing as rare and expensive.

What's more, the "Excellent Co-production Film" award, just by looking at the literal meaning, you can know what kind of existence it is.

Or to put it more intuitively...

Xu Xin really didn't think this trophy was qualified to be placed in the display cabinet of his home.

Just tell the truth.

"What's next?"

"A new director and an excellent feature film."

Weighing the heavy trophy in his hand, he watched the ballet performance on stage and said in a low voice.

And soon, Lang Lang also brought back one.

"Excellent Documentary".

His "Song of Lang Lang: Dedicated to 2008" won the award together with "People First" and "Building Dreams 2008".

The award-winning director of "Building Dreams 2008" Gu Ning and Xu Xin have also dealt with each other.

At that time, her documentary submitted a filming application to the director team.

Xu Xin personally rejected it.

It's not that there is any prejudice against her, but it was the busiest time for the Olympic team at that time, and there was no one to be interviewed for a documentary, and they didn't want to be interviewed.

At that time, everyone was under tremendous pressure, and they were really not in the mood.

The Olympic Directors Group also has its own documentary, but more of it is the documentary of the Olympic Opening Ceremony, called "Zhang Yimou's 2008", which has been shown on Travel Satellite TV.

The response was pretty good.

At the same time, the documentary "Zhang Yimou's 2008" has been permanently collected by the Olympic Memorial Hall, so that more people can see the stories behind the opening and closing ceremonies.

This is a serious "self" documentary. Compared with Gu Yu's film, it is naturally impossible for the fat water to be left to outsiders.

……

Soon, Ning Hao, Yu Nan, and Ren Quan, the award presenters of the "Excellent New Director Award", came to the microphone and began the process of presenting the "New Director".

And "Secret" is shortlisted together with the works of new directors, there are two works.

One is "The Chess King and His Son".

The other one is "XLGL Wenchuan".

This film is about a family of three from Wenchuan who traveled to XLGL in 07 and met a very good herdsman, the "Buren" family.The two parties agreed to invite the "Buren" family to visit Wenchuan in 08.

But when the Buren family arrived in Wenchuan, the family of three had already died...

This is the award that Xu Xin cares about the most.

It's not that he wants to get this title much, but he wants to figure out one thing.

That is whether the wind direction of the Huabiao Award is in line with foreign countries, or it has its own ideas.

Therefore, when Ning Hao and the others were hosting on stage, Xu Xin just listened quietly with a smile on his face, facing the camera that was always pointing at him.

Wait until Ning Hao took out the envelope:

"The winner of the No.13 Huabiao Award for Outstanding Newcomer Director is..."

He seemed a little surprised.

After a pause, he said into the microphone:

"Director of "XLGL·Wen Chuan": Hai Tao."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

The moment he heard the name, Xu Xin applauded first.

His whole face was full of convincing expressions and sincere blessings.

On the other hand, Hai Tao, who was on the big screen at the scene, was a little surprised. He looked around... as if he was looking for something.

But not found.

Finally, he stood up and walked to the stage to accept the award and delivered his acceptance speech.

"Old Xu..."

Wang Sicong seemed to want to say something.

But Xu Xin raised his hand slightly.

Seeing this, the young master fell silent.

With a bald head, Haitao, who looked tall and thin, walked up to the podium and stood in front of the microphone after receiving the prize.

"Uh……"

He hesitated, and then said:
"Thanks to the Huabiao Award for awarding this honor to me. As a new director, I have too many deficiencies. It is my dream to be recognized by this honor. I hope that in the future I will also give more Good works are brought to everyone, and I would like to thank all the judges of the Huabiao Award again, thank you."

After speaking, he politely bowed and stepped down.

And Wang Sicong, who was sitting at the bottom, noticed... Another camera pointed at this side and lit a red light.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

He turned his head and glanced at Xu Xin who was smiling and applauding.

In the end, he also joined the applause.

In this way, with the awarding of the awards for the newcomer category, the awarding of outstanding actors, actresses, directors and other awards began.

The Huabiao Award for Outstanding Actress was won by Zhang Ziyi in "Mei Lanfang" and Fan Zhibo in "Sudden Incident".

The Outstanding Actor Award was won by Zhang Hanyu of "Assembly" and Guo Jinglin of "Old Yuan".

The outstanding directors are Feng Xiaogang from "Assembly" and Chen Kaige from "Mei Lanfang".

Finally, as the finale of the excellent feature film, it was selected by "Sudden Incident", "Iron Man", "Six Sisters of Yimeng", "College Entrance Examination 1977", "Assembly", "Mei Lanfang", "Big River", "My Left Hand" , "August [-]st" and "Old Yuan" were obtained.

The No.13 Huabiao Awards came to an end on this glorious night.

"The Unspeakable Secret" won a trophy and a certificate of honor.

The guests present began to leave.

But the winners still need to go to the exhibition area to take pictures as souvenirs.

So when the four people left the venue, they followed the staff and were taken to the interview area of ​​the exhibition.

Just passing by, I saw many reporters surrounding Chen Kaige.

There is also a group of people waiting to take pictures with the trophy in the exhibition area.

Jay Chou thought for a while and said:
"Can you go with Lang Lang? Vivian is over there, I'll go say hello."

The Vivian he was talking about was Xu Ruoxuan.

He is also the lyricist of Lovely Woman.

"Yeah. Old Wang, wait for us outside after you both finish your work."

"no problem."

The two sides separated, and Jay Chou went over there to say hello to Xu Ruoxuan.

Xu Xin and Lang Lang followed behind the winners' team, waiting to take pictures.

At this time, a female voice sounded:
"Director Xu, long time no see."

Xu Xin turned his head to look, smiled and nodded:
"Teacher Jingwei, long time no see."

Jingwei, the host of the six princesses.

At the same time, he is also the host of the premiere of "Golden Armor", and the host of the simultaneous sound of the film and television during the promotion of "The Unspeakable Secret".

Xu Xin met her once on "Secret".

During the promotion of "The Wind", I got to know Yang Mi formally through the relationship.

Although not very familiar, but at least belong to the category of "friends".

And as the host of the Huabiao Awards, Jingwei, who seemed to have not changed his clothes, walked over and greeted Lang Lang:
"Mr. Lang Lang, hello."

"Hey, hello."

After Lang Lang said politely, Xu Xin asked:

"Mr. Jingwei, aren't you going to change clothes for the dinner party?"

"Change."

Jingwei nodded with a smile:
"But after all, I didn't have time to say hello to Director Xu just now, so come and have a look first."

Hearing this, Xu Xin smiled and nodded:
"Is that so..."

Then he glanced at Lang Lang.

Lang Lang understands in seconds:
"Then I'll go to line up first."

"it is good."

Following Xu Xin's response, Lang Lang walked forward with the trophy.

But Xu Xin took a few steps back, and after exiting the range of the passage, he smiled at Jingwei who followed him:
"I feel that Teacher Jingwei has lost a lot of weight recently."

In a word, let Jingwei smile.

"Really? Is there?...Ah, haha~"

Jingwei, who was still wearing a dress, covered her mouth and smiled, looking in a great mood.

"Director Xu, how is Mimi's body?"

"I've been preparing for it for a few days."

"Ah? Isn't the end of October the expected date of delivery?"

"Twins are seldom full-term. So they may be born anytime this month. After October [-]st, they will go to the hospital."

"Uh, the hospital has been found?"

"Well, go to Hehe. After investigating around, both the environment and medical resources there are not bad, and many friends in the circle also recommend going there."

"That one is nice..."

After the two exchanged a few words about Yang Mi, Jingwei suddenly took the initiative to say:
"Director Xu, have you watched the "Sudden Incident" that won the award today?"

"No, I haven't had time to watch it yet."

Xu Xin smiled and shook his head.

Hearing this, Jingwei smiled and said:

"The film premiered at the Great Hall."

Xu Xin was taken aback.

Then nodded:
"The quality of the film is definitely not good."

"Ah."

After Jingwei responded, he continued:
"After all, this year is a big year. It is indeed quite good that this film can be premiered in the Great Hall, and it is organized by various units."

"The other films are also very good. They are all about great people, and the quality of the filming is also excellent... I am planning to watch all these films when I get home."

Jingwei nodded with a smile:
"It's just a pity that "The Wind" was not submitted, and we can only wait for the 14th session."

"Haha, I'm quite lucky. After all, there are so many excellent works this year. If "The Wind" is really submitted, it may not be possible to win these excellent films."

"Then Director Xu is too modest."

"Haha~"

The two chatted for a while, and the interviews with several big directors over there were over.

After Xu Xin saw that Lang Lang was ready to take pictures, he said to Jingwei:
"Okay, then, Mr. Jing, hurry up and change your clothes. See you at the dinner party?"

Jingwei nodded with a smile:
"Well, see you at the dinner. Director Xu~"

Latitude and longitude left.

Xu Xin came to the photo zone.

With a trophy and certificate in hand, he smiled brightly at the camera.

After taking pictures, when he walked to the interview area, he was surrounded by reporters.

"Director Xu, this is the first time to participate in the Huabiao Awards. Does the award this time meet your expectations?"

"To be honest, I am terrified. I can win this award in the hands of so many outstanding filmmakers... I also hope that I will continue to work hard and present better works to everyone."

"Director Xu, in terms of awards for new directors, "The Unspeakable Secret" lost to "XLGL·Wen Chuan", what do you want to say? What is your evaluation of this movie?"

"A very touching movie. Under the lens of director Haitao, every frame of this story makes me feel sincere. He shoots very well, and I have to learn a lot from him."

"Director Xu..."

"Director Xu..."

Xu Xin answered several questions in a very official and polite way.

Then he took the initiative to stop the interview, waved to the reporters and left the Beizhan Theater.

On the other side of the parking lot, there was also a long queue of cars waiting to appear.

Zhang Jiao, who was waiting at the door, immediately handed over a bottle of iced mineral water. After receiving the trophy and certificate, she led Xu Xin towards the vehicle.

After getting into the car, Xu Xin smelled a smell of cigarettes.

"What have I been talking to you about?"

Lang Lang asked.

"The content of the chat is not nutritious. If you really want to talk about the main thing, it is actually nothing more than a talk with me. The premiere of "Sudden Incident" was premiered in the Great Hall, and various units organized the viewing. The core content That's it."

Hearing this, Jay Chou, who was sitting in the co-pilot avoiding the smell of smoke, turned his head and asked:

"Is there any special meaning to this sentence?"

"Have."

Xu Xin nodded, lit a cigarette, leaned on the seat and thought for a while before saying:

"I think... the people from the Huabiao Award should have asked her to come here. Although I can't figure it out, the Huabiao Award is still one of the three big three. Why does it value me so much as a young director... But apart from this reason, other I can't find it."

"...Why does Huabiao want you?"

"Reminds me why I lost "New Director" and "Excellent Feature Film."

"……What's the meaning?"

"Literally, if you think about it, the awards for excellent feature films, including the stories that "XLGL" tells. One is about Wenchuan, and the others are gift films. All excellent feature films, all It is following the main theme of this year. This is the main reason why "Secret" failed the list. And Jingwei came here to tell me that even the premiere of "Sudden Incident" was in the auditorium. Our "Secret" "Secret" and the main theme are not next to each other, so the award can only be given to this."

"Why does it feel like nonsense?"

Wang Sicong scratched his head:
"She came here on purpose just to tell you this?"

"It's not nonsense."

Xu Xin waved his hand:
"Two points, that's right. The first point is to tell me that the theme is not right. Otherwise, I might get more things... That's why she told me that "The Wind" can only wait for the 14th session. .And the second point... I don't know if I think about it too much, but I always feel that the Huabiao Award is like reminding me how to win the prize will be easier...

And the coming of the latitude and longitude itself is very special.Think about it, the host doesn’t change clothes after the show is over, but instead comes to see you specifically to talk about the “reason” for a movie to win a prize… Isn’t that a bit too obvious a hint? "

"..."

"..."

"..."

None of the three said anything.

Instead, think silently.

But in all honesty, in terms of this sense of smell, they were indeed far worse than Xu Xin.

Finally, Wang Sicong asked:
"It means that the 14th edition of "The Wind" will win many awards?"

"Not seen."

Xu Xin shook his head slightly:

"But it shouldn't be too bad...but the more they do this, the more strange I get. Because if they really show favor to me...it doesn't make sense. This is the Huabiao Award. Even if you say it divides pork, it is three One of the big ones. I am a small director, so it is worth them asking me to say a word?"

His eyes were full of doubt and incomprehension.

"Wheel, have you ever encountered such a thing?"

"No. No matter if it's a music award, big or small, the lottery is the lottery, and it's for whoever it is. No matter if it causes controversy or something, the most you can say in the media is that you have criteria for judging, or what musicality and artistry are. And so on, no one will explain to you why you didn't win the award... It's impossible to think about it. What's more, the Huabiao Award is not a small award, and they are not afraid of offending Ah Xin... So... so strange ~"

Following his words, the vehicle slowly drove out of the parking area and walked towards the dinner venue of the State Guesthouse.

Xu Xin wasn't talking either, just smoking a cigarette with doubts and puzzlement in his eyes.
