China Entertainment's whatever you want

Chapter 718 There will be another chance in the future
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, May has passed and the crew has been in Tokyo for more than a month.

More than half of the shooting plan set up in the early stage has been completed, and with the crew's running-in, the subsequent shooting has become more and more smooth.

Nazha flew over from China in mid-June. The character "KIKO" she played also appeared in the third part, but only in a few shots.

"It was me who killed Su Chawei. The gang can only move towards glory under my leadership. Su Chawei is just an old dog who has no ambition and is just sitting there doing nothing." The Japanese actor who played Ruan Wengang screamed at the top of his lungs.

In the trial scene, Qin Feng, played by Gu Wei, identified Ruan Wen as the murderer in front of everyone and provided irrefutable evidence.

Ruan Wengang collapsed mentally and admitted that he had killed someone.

The judge then adjourned the court and the real murderer was taken away by the police.

After the assistant director shouted "Cut!", Gu Wei went to the back of the monitor to take a look. He found that there was no problem, and today's shooting task was completed.

"Would you like to have dinner together tonight?" Nazha came over with "KIKO" makeup and two purple ponytails, looking like a bad girl.

Gu Wei, who had just finished talking to assistant director Zhao Liang, raised his head.

"Okay, it's a good time to celebrate the completion of your role.

But the crew still has some work to do, so it will be a little later. I’ll find you when I’m done.”

"Okay~"

Just as Nazha was about to remove her makeup and change her clothes, Aragaki Yui, who was wearing a white women's suit, came over.

"Director, I'm going home after work. See you tomorrow!"

Gu Wei also responded with a smile, "Yui-chan, see you tomorrow~"

Although Nazha didn't understand what they were saying in Japanese, she still looked at Yui Aragaki unconsciously.

She has been in Tokyo for two days, and this is the first time she has met the heroine of "Detective Chinatown 3" Aragaki Yui, because the characters played by the two are only in one scene, today's scene.

Aragaki Yui smiled and nodded to her, then turned and walked outside.

She didn't know Nazha, but after she took on "Detective Chinatown 3", she watched the first two series and knew that she was a supporting actress in the second series.

The two of them had no scenes against each other in the movie, so they didn't even have to go through the trouble of getting to know each other.

Nazha nodded politely upon seeing this. Seeing Gu Wei chatting about work with the assistant director next to him again, she thought for a moment and turned to walk towards the dressing room.

In the evening, after dealing with all the crew matters, Gu Wei brought Nazha to a nearby restaurant. Since they were in Tokyo, of course they had to eat authentic local Japanese food.

"When will the filming of [Detective Chinatown 3] be completed?" Nazha picked up a piece of sashimi, dipped it in the sauce and put it in her mouth.

"According to the shooting plan, the Tokyo scenes will be finished in early July.

Try this tempura, it’s their specialty, and it tastes very good.” Gu Wei picked up a piece and prepared to put it in Nazha’s bowl.

"Ah~"

Nazha looked at Gu Wei with her big eyes, stretched his head forward and opened his mouth wide, indicating that he should feed her.

Gu Wei smiled helplessly and had to pick up the tempura and put it into Nazha's mouth.

"Hmm~ There are big shrimps in it, crispy and tender, really delicious." Nazha smiled innocently while eating.

"It's a pity that I'm just a supporting role in the third part. I really want to stay with you in the crew all the time." According to the work plan, Nazha will return to China tomorrow.

"The crew will be filming in Tokyo for another month. You can't just sit in the hotel and do nothing for a month."

"Detective Chinatown 3 will be filmed until July, so will you be unable to attend Zhang Ruoyun's wedding at the end of June?" After recording Youth With You 7, Nazha and Zhang Ruoyun became friends, so naturally she sent her an invitation to her wedding.

"When Ruoyun invited me to be his best man during the previous recording of the show, I agreed and I was definitely going.

I can just take two days off when the time comes. I have already asked the crew to adjust the filming schedule. When I leave, I can just shoot the scenes with Bao Qiang, Tsumabuki Satoshi and others in their individual scenes."

"You're the best man~" Nazha rolled her eyes, with a look of regret on her face.

"It's a pity that I'm not familiar with Tang Yixin. I just received the wedding invitation, but I wasn't asked to be a bridesmaid."

Gu Wei picked up a piece of sushi and took a bite.

"That's easy. I'll tell Ruoyun, and he'll talk to his wife and probably be able to add you. Nowadays, weddings are all configured with groomsmen and bridesmaids. It's lively with a lot of people, so there shouldn't be any problem."

After hearing his words, Nazha was a little moved, but after thinking about it, she refused and said, "Forget it, the bridesmaids must be the bride's best friends, and I am not familiar with the others, so it will be quite awkward to be together.

It would be nice to go and witness it on site.”

"It's up to you." Gu Wei looked indifferent.

The two were eating and chatting, and Nazha suddenly thought of something.

"Did you choose the heroine of [Detective Chinatown 3]?"

Gu Wei, who was eating, looked up at her.

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"You and Aragaki Yui knew each other before?"

“She was the first person I worked with when I came to Japan to shoot the cover of VOGUE magazine.

Yui-chan is a beautiful girl and a goddess for otakus across Asia. She is not only very famous in Japan, but also has many fans in our country.

I think she has a certain appeal in China if we choose her to play the female lead."

Hearing Gu Wei praising other girls, Nazha curled her lips in displeasure and muttered quietly: "I don't think she is that beautiful."

Gu Wei was a little funny.

"Unlike a big beauty like you, Yui Aragaki has a delicate and sweet appearance, giving the feeling of first love. She is the white moonlight in the hearts of otakus."

"Who is prettier, me or her?" Nazha asked, blinking her big eyes.

"Of course you're beautiful!"

“That’s pretty much it”

On June 6, the 25th Shanghai TV Festival Magnolia Award Ceremony was held at the East Television Theater.

Gu Wei's flight arrived at Pudong International Airport in the morning.

At 4 p.m., countless celebrities arrived on the red carpet outside the Magnolia Awards Ceremony venue.

Yao Chen, Guo Jingfei, Ni Dahong and others from the crew of [All Is Well] had just walked across the red carpet when a black Mercedes-Benz slowly drove over.

The car door opened, and a thigh wearing black leather shoes stepped down first, followed by an extremely handsome figure.

Wearing a Louis Vuitton haute couture dark blue suit, a Bulgari emerald brooch on his chest, a Jaeger-LeCoultre double-wing watch on his wrist, and with one of the world's best looks, Gu Wei stepped onto the red carpet like a prince in a medieval castle.

As expected, after Gu Wei showed up, the fans at the scene let out deafening screams and the reporters’ cameras kept taking pictures as if they were free.

After getting out of the car and straightening his clothes slightly, Gu Wei reached out and helped Zhao Liying, who was wearing a black and white plaid long skirt, out of the car.

The two walked onto the red carpet with smiles on their faces, waving and greeting the audience area nearby.

"Husband I love you!"

"Gu Wei, look over here, you are the most handsome!"

"Minglan is the most beautiful, Liying will definitely win the award!"

"."

Amid the enthusiastic cheers of fans, Gu Wei and Zhao Liying walked to the photo area in front of the signature board.

Both of them were nominated for this year's Magnolia Awards, and they walked the red carpet together to represent the "Knowing" crew.

"You have too many fans, all of them are fanatical little girls." After taking the photo and entering the lounge in the venue, Zhao Liying said to Gu Wei beside her.

"It's OK. There are quite a few fans shouting your name. Liying, this is your first time to be nominated for the Magnolia Award for Best Actress. Congratulations!"

The corners of Zhao Liying's mouth curled up slightly.

"You've been nominated for Best Actor, so we're on the same page.

You’ve already won the Magnolia Award for Best Actor for Nirvana in Fire, so this will be your second time.”

At this year's Magnolia Awards, "The Story of Minglan" was nominated for seven major awards including Best Actor, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenwriter, Best Director, and Best TV Series. Judging from the nominations alone, it is definitely the big winner at this year's awards ceremony.

"I won the Best Actor award entirely because of the popularity of [Do You Know?]. In terms of the final performance, Ni Dahong from [All Is Well] and Wang Kai from [A Flowing River] performed better than me."

Zhao Liying turned and looked at Gu Wei.

"It's not your style to be so unconfident, right?"

"It's not that I don't have confidence, it's just that the character doesn't have enough depth, and it has little to do with my acting skills."

"After the ceremony, are you going back to Tokyo to continue filming?" Zhao Liying was also concerned about the fact that Gu Wei was filming "Detective Chinatown 3".

"I'm going to fly to Ireland tomorrow to attend Zhang Ruoyun's wedding, and then I'll go back to Japan to continue filming."

Zhao Liying had no contact with Zhang Ruoyun and Tang Yixin, and was very surprised to know that they were married. Her eyes widened slightly and she paused.

“I wish them a happy marriage!”

Gu Wei smiled and said, "I would like to thank Liying for your blessing on behalf of the two newlyweds!"

The two stayed in the lounge for a while, and only entered the ceremony venue when the time was almost up.

Their seats in the venue were still next to each other, sitting together with other members of the "Do You Know" crew.

Gu Wei also chatted with directors Zhang Kaizhou, Zhu Yilong and Zhang Jianing.

The crew of "The Story of Minglan" is next to the crew of "Like a Flowing River", both of which are dramas of "Noon Sunshine". The director of "Like a Flowing River" is Kong Sheng, and the male lead is Wang Kai, both of whom are old acquaintances of Gu Wei.

Gu Wei is a frequent guest at the Magnolia Awards. He has been nominated for the Magnolia Awards several times over the years and even won the Best Actor award once for "Nirvana in Fire", so it was a very easy performance for him.

Zhao Liying is different. This is the first time she has been nominated for the Magnolia Best Actress award in all her years in the industry, so she cares a lot about whether she can win the award and seems a little nervous.

The award ceremony went on as usual, with various awards being presented one after another after the opening performance.

Although Zhu Yilong was very popular for his role as the young master in "The Story of Minglan", he ultimately failed to win an award, as the Best Supporting Actor award went to Guo Jingfei.

I have to say that Guo Jingfei did a really good job in playing the role of "Su Mingcheng", a man who lives off his parents, in "All Is Well".

He is good at playing this kind of role, just like the one he played in the future drama "I Am Yu Huanshui", which is the most typical very decadent middle-aged role.

The Best Supporting Actress award went to Tong Yao, who played Song Yunping in "A Flowing River".

Regardless of other people's opinions, Gu Wei felt that Teacher Liu Lin, who was nominated for "The Story of Minglan", was more qualified to win the award than Tong Yao.

Teacher Liu Lin's acting skills alone are better than Tong Yao's, and she played the role of the lady to perfection. Not only is there nothing wrong with her, but her performance is even better than what was written in the script.

So it is obviously unconvincing to give the Best Supporting Actress award to Tong Yao.

After some awards in the first half were presented, the second half entered the most anticipated awards including Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director, Best TV Series and other major awards.

When the award presenters Ma Yili and Hu Ge came on stage to announce the Best Actress award, Gu Wei clearly felt that Zhao Liying beside him was nervous. Her face was stiff and her fists were clenched tightly.

".The winner of this year's Magnolia Award for Best Actress is Jiang Wenli [A Little Woman from Zhengyang Gate]!
Congratulations Jiang Wenli!"

After Ma Yili announced the winners, the audience burst into warm applause. Zhao Liying also breathed a sigh of relief, but she couldn't hide the disappointment on her face.

Then he immediately adjusted his expression, raised his hands and applauded.

"It's okay, you are still young and there will be many opportunities in the future," Gu Wei applauded and whispered to comfort him.

Zhao Liying also nodded slightly.

There was another person on the scene who was even more disappointed than Zhao Liying, and that was Yao Chen, who was nominated for Best Actress for "All Is Well".

Before today's awards ceremony, she was favored by many to win the Best Actress award.

"All Is Well" was a huge hit in the first half of this year. Yao Chen played the character Su Mingyu, who was rebellious, independent, and strong. She wanted to draw a clear line with her original family, but could not give up the blood ties that were thicker than water.

It can be said that this is the peak of her acting skills since she entered the industry.

I thought she was a sure winner of the Magnolia Award, but I didn't expect that the Best Actress award would be won by Jiang Wenli with the little-known role "The Little Woman of Zhengyang Gate".

When the result was announced, Yao Chen's face looked very bad, and he didn't even bother to pretend to applaud.

After the Best Actress award was announced, the Best Actor award went to Mr. Ni Dahong just as Gu Wei had expected.

The character "Su Daqiang" played by him has become very popular this year, and his lines and expressions have become popular.

He beat Gu Wei, Wang Kai, Chen Kun and He Bing to win this year's Magnolia Award for Best Actor!

"Noon Sunshine" had nothing to do with the previous awards, but the last two major awards, Best Director and Best TV Series, were won by "A Flowing River".

Director Kong Sheng won the Magnolia Best Director Award for the third time after "A Family in Wenzhou" and "Nirvana in Fire".

After he was announced as the winner, everyone gave him a round of congratulatory applause.

Although Gu Wei did not win the Best Actor award, it was not a wasted trip.

He, along with Hai Qing, Huang Lei, Liu Ye, Yan Ni and others, was awarded the title of Ambassador for Overseas Promotion of Chinese TV Programs.

Although I didn’t win the trophy, I did go on stage to receive the certificate of promotion ambassador.

"Don't be discouraged. Let's have dinner together after the party. If you didn't win a prize this time, you can come again next time!" At the end of the party, Gu Wei whispered to Zhao Liying beside him.

"Didn't Director Kong just ask you to get together tonight?"

"I won't join the dinner party of the crew of "A Flowing River""

"Okay, we'll go together after it's over." Feeling Gu Wei's concern, Zhao Liying felt better.

After the 25th Magnolia Awards ceremony, the final results also caused a lot of controversy online.

Zhao Liying and Gu Wei did not win any awards, and many of their fans felt sorry for them.

However, the two were not the favorites to win the award at the beginning, and it was also expected by netizens that they did not win the award in the end.

However, many people still questioned that the Best Actress award was given to Jiang Wenli and the Best Supporting Actress was given to Tong Yao.

[I thought the Best Actress award was either Yao Chen or Zhao Liying. All Is Well and Do You Know Deserve to win the Magnolia Award. What the hell is Jiang Wenli? Not many people have watched this Little Woman of Zhengyang Gate! ]

[I've seen it. To be honest, Jiang Wenli's performance was good, but not as good as Yao Chen's Su Mingyu! ]

[I love "Do You Know?", I am not satisfied that Minglan didn't win the Best Actress Award! ]

[Even the lady could lose to Song Yunping. This is the worst time that Teacher Liu Lin has been criticized! ]

[I think Tong Yao’s performance in “Long River” is just average, and it is totally incomparable to Teacher Liu Lin’s role as the lady in “The Story of Minglan”.

The acting skills of the two are very different. If you compare Jiang Dehua in "Parents' Love" with the lady, you will know how excellent Teacher Liu Lin's acting skills are.

I didn’t expect to lose to Tong Yao.】

[I'm not the only one who still remembers the Zhang Mo incident, Tong Yao has someone behind her. I didn't expect that she could still turn things around after that incident!]

[Yao Chen's face looked so ugly during the award ceremony that he didn't even bother pretending.

But she had reason to be angry, and her performance in "All Is Well" was indeed good.】
