China Entertainment Mythology 2004

Chapter 106 Uproar
Li Mu took the stage again and took the trophy, and then thanked all the people who should be thanked in his acceptance speech in English. Finally, he raised the trophy and said:

"Today is a day worth remembering forever for me. I finally won the Hugo Award, which I once regarded as my goal, and I won three awards at once - Best Long Story Award, Best Novel Best Short Story Award, Best Short Novella Award. I once thought that this award was far away from me, but I didn’t expect it to come to me suddenly today. I think I am extremely lucky today.”

"I am a sci-fi writer and also a sci-fi film director. I usually spend more time making films and less time writing, and this trend will become more and more obvious in the future. That is to say, this time it is extremely It may be the last time I stand on stage at the Hugo Awards, and it's certainly a very big regret for me."

"The Hugo Award is a literary award, and at the same time, the Hugo Award is also a science fiction award. As a literary award, the Best Novel Award will always be the most important award of the Hugo Award; and as a science fiction award, the influence of science fiction movies on science fiction fans is increasing. Expansion at an unprecedented rate."

Speaking of which, Li Mu turned to face the direction of the jury: "I don't know if the Hugo Awards can also set up an award for science fiction movies in the future, so that I will have the opportunity to appear on this exciting stage in the future, but when I do, I will bring It's going to be my sci-fi movie."

After speaking, Li Mu walked straight off the stage, leaving a crowd of people discussing.

"what?"

"The Hugo is a literary award, and there are awards for science fiction films?"

"Hugo Award for Best Film? Is it funny?"

"Is Le silly?"

……

Back at the seat, Qin Li also asked Li Mu why he wanted to set up the Hugo Film Awards, and Li Mu replied that he was dumbfounded at the time and said whatever came to mind.

In fact, the real reason is that, in Li Mu's impression, the Hugo Awards originally set up awards for sci-fi movies, and even more than that. Later, the Hugo Awards also set up awards for TV dramas and even comics.

After the awards ceremony was over, a group of people walked out of the hall, with excitement written all over their faces.

Li Mu pulled Qin Li aside and said, "Sister Li, I don't think everyone is sleepy, why don't we find a place to celebrate? I'll pay for it, and I'll prepare another 3 yuan. Let's have a lottery game , everyone has a share, individual surprises."

Qin Li nodded and said, "I'll ask for everyone's opinions later."

An hour later, a group of people came to a KTV.

While playing like crazy, Li Mu suddenly received a call from Cheng Long.

"I just saw the news, wow! It's amazing, the first Hugo Award in Asia, and won three at a time. I heard that it is the Nobel Prize in science fiction. Congratulations, you are amazing!"

"Eh... Even Uncle Long knows so soon?"

"You are young, you have never been in Xiangjiang, and you don't know how powerful Xiangjiang paparazzi are. Everyone says that Cheng Long dares to work hard when making movies, but in fact Xiangjiang's reporters also dare to work hard when shooting celebrities."

The two chatted a few more words casually, and then the topic shifted to "The Doomsday Collapse".Li Mu has no other requirements for the "Doomsday Collapse" project. The only thing is that the movie must be released before November 2009.

Because on November 2009, 11, the Hollywood blockbuster "13" will be officially released globally simultaneously.

The selling points of the two films "Collapse" and "2012" are so similar, so Li Mu has every reason to believe that whoever goes first will take advantage.

The audience saw "The End of the World" for the first time-wow, it's awesome!so handsome!This is a blockbuster, this is a disaster blockbuster!
Then a month later, another "2012" came out, and the audience will definitely feel that "2012" is not too amazing.

"Oh, not bad, but isn't this an upgraded version of "The Doomsday Collapse"?"

"Tired, don't want to escape, destroy it!"

"What's the difference between this film and "The Doomsday Collapse"?"

Whoever comes first is likely to have a major impact on the final box office of the two films.

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on this film, you can shoot "Inception" at ease first, and then transfer directly to the crew of "The End of the World" after filming, and the film will start as soon as "Inception" is over!"

"Okay, Uncle Long, worry about the film preparations."

"OK."

……

Xishan Province, Yangquan City.

"Dad, what is the Hugo Award? It seems very powerful." At the dinner table, Liu Cixin's 14-year-old daughter suddenly asked.

"The Hugo Award is - no, Jingjing, why are you suddenly interested in the Hugo Award? I remember that you and your mother never read science fiction and don't care about science fiction awards." Liu Cixin asked curiously.

At the same time, he suddenly remembered that today seemed to be the day when the Hugo Awards were announced.

"Just now, my QQ account popped up an advertisement, saying that Huaxia people won the third Hugo Award, and it looks very powerful."

"I won the award!" Liu Cixin suddenly stood up excitedly.

Unexpectedly, Li Mu really did it!
Thinking of the first meeting between the two, Li Mu said at that time that Huaxia was most likely to win the Hugo Award. He and Liu Cixin did not expect that less than two years later, he really won the Hugo Award!

He didn't need to read the news to know that Li Mu must be the one who won the award, and she was the only one nominated by Huaxia in the first round.

After figuring it out, Liu Cixin sat back on the chair again. He wanted to set a good example for his daughter, so what did he look like in a panic?Be calm every time you face a major event!Now that he knows that the winner must be Li Mu, what difference does it make if he goes to the news or not?
"Quiet, this Hugo Award is the highest award in the sci-fi world. Whoever wins this award shows that he is a very good sci-fi writer. As for the setting of the Hugo Award, it is divided into the best Best Novel, Best Novelette, Best Short Novella..."

"By the way, Jingjing, which Hugo Award did the person you read on the news win?"

Liu Jingjing thought for a while and replied, "The three major Hugo Awards."

"Three awards?"

Liu Cixin was stunned for a moment. He never remembered that there were three major awards in the Hugo Awards, or was it because his daughter remembered it wrong?

At this time, I heard Liu Jingjing continue: "I only read the title and didn't click in. Other than that, it's true. That's what the QQ pop-up window said just now--Li Mu, a master of Chinese science fiction, won three Hugo Awards. Awards!"

Liu Cixin felt a rush of steam rushing to his forehead, and almost missed him.

He remembered that Li Mu had been nominated for three Hugo Awards for Best Novel, Best Novelette and Best Short Novella, so now according to the news headline his daughter just recounted, wouldn’t it mean—— Li Mu won three Hugo Awards by himself?Or at a World Science Fiction Convention?

"Snapped!"

Liu Cixin suddenly slapped the dining table, which startled both his daughter and his wife.Ignoring his wife's eyes that were about to go mad, he stood up and walked to the study, muttering while walking:
"It must be that Li Mu was nominated for the three Hugo Awards, but it must not be Li Mu who won the three Hugo Awards. The difference is really too big. One person won three Hugo Awards at the same time? How can this be!"

When he came to the computer and sat down, he thought that even if he logged into QQ, he might not be popped up immediately, so he might as well go directly to the four major portals to have a look.

So he first opened Sina.com.

"Writer Li Mu's novel "Moon" won the Hugo Award for Best Short Novella, becoming the No.1 winner of this award in an Asian country!"

"Shocked! Li Mu's novel "Gravity" won the Hugo Award for Best Novelette again, becoming the No.1 winner of two Hugo Awards in the same year!"

"The whole world is in an uproar! Li Mu's novel "The Martian" won the Hugo Award for Best Novel Story again, and Huaxia's imagination bloomed the most dazzling three parallel flowers in the history of the Hugo Awards!"

"One person won three awards, Li Mu made the impossible possible!"

"A miracle in the history of the Hugo Awards!"

"Li Mu won three Hugo Awards, which are known as the Nobel Prizes in the science fiction world. Maybe you don't know how amazing it is to win these three awards at the same time!"

Liu Cixin leaned back on the armchair, dumbfounded!
