The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 575 Liu Shishi

"Clap clap clap!"

The first audience favorite actress is announced.

Chen Shu wore a white dress with her long hair tied behind her head and waved gracefully to the camera.

On stage, Feng Ji continued to unveil the male actors.

He glanced at the list and said, "First of all, let me state that this is an actor I particularly like. I have watched many TV series starring him... Then, the winner of the 26th China TV Golden Eagle Award, the Audience Favorite TV Actor Award is..."

He paused for a few seconds and announced loudly: "Lu Yuan!!"

"Clap, clap, clap!" The scene immediately broke into thunderous applause.

As the guests clapped, expressions of "as expected" appeared on their faces.

This time, Lu Yuan has four dramas selected, namely "Before the Dawn", "The Unforgettable Number", "Snow Leopard" and "Startling by Each Step".

Among them are serious dramas as well as idol-themed ones, and the ratings were among the best in the same year. Considering the fact that the Golden Eagle Award caters to traffic and popularity, he would not be able to explain to the audience if he did not win the award this time.

The live director's camera turned to the first row of guest seats.

Liu Shishi felt a little regretful because she didn't hear her own name, and then she clapped her hands excitedly.

Lu Yuan faced the camera and pretended to be surprised.

In fact, before coming, he received a notice from the organizer of the Golden Eagle Awards, asking him to prepare an acceptance speech.

For him, the focus of this Golden Eagle Award is not himself, but whether his girlfriend Liu Shishi can win the award.

To live up to the title of Best Actor or Best Actress at the Golden Eagle Awards, one must win both awards at the same time.

They are the audience's favorite TV actor and actress, or one of the most popular actor and actress awards and the best performing arts award.

If an actor only wins one of the three awards and declares himself as the Best Actor or Best Actress, his fans who are unaware of the truth may be delighted, but he will be laughed at by people in the industry.

The most popular actress is selected through online voting by the audience.

This award does not depend on professional ability, but only on the actor's traffic. With Liu Shishi's current popularity and popularity, it should not be a problem for her to be voted first.

This means that Liu Shishi only needs to win the Audience Favorite TV Actress Award to secure her spot as the Golden Eagle Award winner.

When he asked the organizer whether Liu Shishi won the award, the other party kept it a secret.

Lu Yuan is actually quite contradictory.

Purely from an actor's perspective, he doesn't want Liu Shishi to win the award.

Because with this girl's current professional ability, although it is still good among the younger generation, there is still a certain gap compared with other shortlisted actresses. If she becomes the Best Actress this time, it will most likely cause controversy.

If you only consider it from the boyfriend's perspective, there is no doubt that he naturally hopes that she will win awards, the more the better, even a Grand Slam would be no problem.

But looking at the selection rules of the Golden Eagle Awards in recent years, the actresses selected as the audience's favorite have their nominated works based on either period, reality, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, family, etc. None of them are about ancient idol themes.

With this analysis, the possibility of Liu Shishi winning the award is very slim.

Of course, the final result depends on the Golden Eagle Award itself.

For an award that caters to the audience, the proportion of professional ability in the award selection is decreasing, and the possibility of unconventional choices cannot be ruled out.

After all, this year's reform of the Golden Eagle Awards is based mainly on audience voting, combining audience voting with expert selection, and ostensibly respects public opinion (actors' popularity) more.

"Please invite the winning actors to come on stage to receive their awards," the host He Jiong repeated.

Lu Yuan turned around and waved to the other guests at the scene, then hugged the excited Liu Shishi for a few seconds before walking out of his seat and stepping onto the stairs with Chen Shu.

Chen Shu congratulated in a low voice: "Congratulations."

"You too." Lu Yuan smiled.

Chen Shu was nominated this time for "Iron Pear Flower" and "Before the Dawn".

She didn't have many scenes in "Before the Dawn", and it was the period drama "Iron Pear Flower" that really supported her to win the award.

This drama depicts the turbulent years from the warlords' infighting to the Anti-Japanese War, and has won Chen Shu two high-profile awards, the Magnolia Award for Best Actress and tonight's Golden Eagle Award.

A screen at the back of the stage began playing clips from the duo’s award-winning films and TV series.

The first to appear was Chen Shu's "Iron Pear Flower".

Lu Yuan’s are "Before the Dawn", "Snow Leopard" and "The Eternal Number".

Yes, three dramas.

The guests in the audience were talking about this, saying it was horrible.

Lu Yuan noticed that "Startling by Each Step" was not on the list, and initially judged that Liu Shishi's chances of winning the award were slim.

He subconsciously looked at his girlfriend.

Miss Liu didn't understand what was going on, but when she saw her boyfriend looking at her lovingly, she cutely (silly) gave him two thumbs up.

Lu Yuan: "."

After the two came on stage, Sa Beining said, "Let's welcome Wang Feng from the Television Artists Association and Ouyang Changlin, Director of Hunan Radio and Television Station, to present the awards to you two."

He Jiong began to read the award speech.

"Award-winning actress Chen Shu was nominated for the Golden Eagle Award for the first time for her role in "Iron Pear Flower". She is known as one of the best-looking Chinese actresses in cheongsam."

"Lu Yuan was nominated for the Golden Eagle Award for the second time for his three TV series Before Dawn, Snow Leopard, and The Unforgettable Number. He is a talented young actor born in the 1980s."

Ouyang Changlin took the trophy from the host, handed it to Lu Yuan with a smile and patted him on the shoulder, while another person presented the award to Chen Shu.

"Congratulations!"

"Congratulations to both of you!"

"Thank you."

The four of them stood shoulder to shoulder in the center of the stage. After the group photo was taken, Ouyang Changlin and Wang Feng left the stage.

Sa Beining added: "Please give your acceptance speeches."

Lu Yuan stretched out his hand, indicating that ladies were given first.

Chen Shu adjusted the microphone and said sideways: "Lu Yuan, I just watched the TV series clip starring you on the screen, and I found that you are actually more handsome in person."

Lu Yuan didn't know why she was making fun of him. He took a step forward and leaned forward slightly: "Thank you, that sounds familiar. Let me think about it. Hmm. Our Shishi often says that."

"Pfft, hahahaha, that's enough!"

The guests in the audience started to boo.

The camera turned and Liu Shishi appeared on the screen.

This girl couldn't stop smiling, but that was only in public; her true colors would show in private.

Netizens who were watching the live broadcast on PPS at the moment were also amazed by this scene.

After the update, PPS set up a review area at the bottom of the video playback page. Netizens left their reviews one after another, and in less than half a minute, the number of comments exceeded 10,000.

"Oh my god, Shishi is smiling so sweetly. Have you noticed that she has never taken her eyes off Lu Yuan since he came on stage? Just now, when Lu Yuan mentioned our Shishi, her eyes were shining. It's true love without a doubt."

"Although, Lu Yuan's box office on the big screen is so high, he is now a movie star, and he is not on the same level as these people."

"Whatever your level, I don't care if you are a movie star or a TV star. As a viewer, I just want to watch good actors tell good stories. I don't care about anything else."

"..."

On stage, Chen Shu officially gave her acceptance speech: "Thank you Hunan Satellite TV, this is my first time participating in the Golden Eagle Awards, and thank you for "Iron Pear Flower", this drama allowed me to win my 16th award."

"."

When it was Lu Yuan's turn, he started with some clichés.

"Thank you Hunan Satellite TV, and thank you to everyone in the crew of Snow Leopard, The Unforgettable Number, and Before Dawn."

Then the conversation changed.

"I am grateful to the television industry. For every TV person, it is our parent, and every work we create is our child."

He paused for a moment and raised the golden trophy in his hand: "I will cherish this heavy encouragement and will continue to work hard to make good works and share them with everyone."

"Clap clap clap!"

"Thank you both, and congratulations on winning the prize!"

Lu Yuan and Chen Shu returned to the guest seats one after another, carrying the trophy.

The first group of the audience's favorite actors and actresses have been announced. Amid the playful interaction between He Jiong and Sa Beining, Chen Sichen and Tong Liya sang the song "Meeting" on stage.

Liu Shishi was a little nervous at the moment, with a tense face.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan grabbed her hand and found that her palms were sweating. He didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.

After all, his first nomination for the Magnolia Best Actor for "Insidious" wasn't much better.

Before the host announced the list, I was completely dazed. When my name was called out, I was distracted and it took me a while to react.

He thought about it again and again, and simply said: "It's okay, this is only the first one, there are still three spots."

Liu Shishi didn't know whether she heard it or not, and nodded absentmindedly.

After Chen Sichen and Tong Liya walked down the stairs hand in hand, the award ceremony continued.

As the guest of honor, Zhang Weijian announced the second group of male and female actors that the audience liked.

Lin Yongjian and Ma Su!

The winning works were "My Name is Wang Tuodi" and "Factory Flower".

Lu Yuan stared at Ma Su for a few seconds. He still remembered that she had invited him to dinner last year.

Ma Su's professional ability is outstanding among actresses, and she can be said to be gifted compared with child star Yang Mi.

Her performance in "Factory Flower" is also remarkable, but it's a pity that her intentions are not right.

Ma Su noticed his gaze and subconsciously wanted to dodge it, but she immediately adjusted herself and smiled nonchalantly.

“Thank you Hunan Satellite TV.”

When Lin Yongjian and Ma Su were giving their acceptance speeches, Lu Yuan keenly noticed that Liu Shishi was gripping him with much greater force.

He said with a stiff upper lip: "It's okay, don't worry, there are still two spots."

"Hmph!" Liu Shishi glanced at him.

After the Best Director Award, Best Screenwriter Award, and Best TV Drama Award, the Audience Favorite Actor Award from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, which was added for the first time at the Golden Eagle Awards, was presented.

Wallace Chung became the first artist from Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan to win the Golden Eagle Award with "Trigger".

Then comes the third group of male and female actors that the audience likes.

Gu Zhixin and Yue Hong, their works are "China 1921" and "Looking Up and Seeing Happiness" respectively.

"Huh?" Liu Shishi pointed his nostrils at the dogs. The third group has come out. What else do you have to say?

"Uh" Lu Yuan regretted why he spoke out loud just now.

Before announcing the last group of actors and actresses that the audience likes, Sa Beining inserted the voting data for the most popular actors and actresses.

"Voting for the Most Popular Actor Award is still ongoing today. Let's take a look at the current voting results on the big screen."

"Let's look at the male actors first." He Jiong raised the microphone.

When the data came out on the big screen, the scene was boiling, especially the fans behind the guest seats, waving cheering sticks and shouting.

"Wow~"

"Brilliant!"

However, Lu Yuan ranked first with 2955179 votes.

Wallace Chung came in second with 1058145 votes, followed by Chen Sichen with 970376 votes, and Tong Dawei came in fourth with 929887 votes.

The gap is so huge and out of reach that Lu Yuan has basically locked in on the most popular male actor.

He Jiong and Sa Beining looked at each other, helplessness flashing in their eyes.

Originally, the real-time data was to be announced when the first group of audience favorite actors and actresses were revealed, but the program crew informed that the announcement would be postponed.

Because the gap is really too big.

As long as the data is shown, it means that there will be no suspense about the selection of the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor, and Lu Yuan will defend his title for the second time.

How to catch up with the gap of nearly 200 million votes?
Moreover, this list cannot be looked at too closely, as it has problems in itself.

The votes for the most popular male actor only stayed on the list for a short time, and He Jiong said hurriedly: "Next, let's look at the female actors."

As expected, Liu Shishi topped the list, which is consistent with her recent popularity and popularity, with 695478 votes.

The second place is Yang Mi with 397825 votes, the third place is Tong Liya with 100566, and the fourth place is Ma Su with 89651 votes.

After noticing the data, there was silence for a moment, and then people started whispering.

The colleagues in the guest seats immediately looked at the backs of Wallace Chung, Chen Sichen and Tong Dawei.

The vote gap between the most popular male and female actors is too great.

Overall, male actors received much higher votes.

The man Tong Dawei's lowest salary was close to 100 million, while the woman Liu Shishi's highest salary was only close to 70.

Could it be that Tong Dawei’s current popularity is higher than Liu Shishi’s?

Of course not!
Although the TV series "Battle of Marriage" starring him had good ratings, the audience was not young people. How could he get nearly 100 million votes?

And the careful guests discovered a problem: the votes for Wallace Chung, Chen Sichen, and Tong Dawei were quite close.

Everyone here is a smart person and it’s easy for us to figure out the reason.

Because of Lu Yuan's existence, his votes are a BUG for the list.

Wallace Chung, Chen Sichen, and Tong Dawei all know that they have no chance of winning, but people have to maintain their dignity and trees have to maintain their bark, especially in the entertainment industry, which is a world of fame and fortune.

In order to prevent fans from thinking that they were too incompetent, they had to resort to vote-rigging to narrow the gap with Lu Yuan. In fact, 60% of their votes were fake.

As for the actresses, the situation was much better. Liu Shishi also received a lot of votes, but not as exaggerated as Lu Yuan.

Seeing the tense atmosphere in the audience, Sa Beining joked, "How about we come up with a new rule for counting votes?"

He Jiong was stunned for a moment, then continued: "What rules?"

“If any list has too many votes ahead, we won’t count them and start over!” Sa Beining even laughed as he said this.

"These votes are truly cast by the audience." He Jiong was embarrassed and immediately defended the fairness and justice of the Golden Eagle Awards. In fact, he also knew that there were problems with the votes for male actors.

Sa Beining suppressed his laughter and agreed, "This number of votes is indeed real."

The two of them chatted about this and that on the stage and quickly got through the show.

Three of the four groups of male and female actors that the audience liked had been announced, and the atmosphere on the scene gradually became depressing with only one group left.

Liu Shishi clenched her fists. At this stage of the award ceremony, she no longer had any hope of winning.

The competition is so fierce. In addition to the three winners, the nominees for the Audience's Favorite Actress this year include Jiang Wenli, Ma Yili, Qin Hailu, Sarina, and Yang Mi.
Except Yang Mi, the others are all talented actors.

Although her acting skills have improved greatly under the careful guidance of her boyfriend, she no longer relies on her wild and experiential instincts to get into the role, and has learned a lot of acting skills.

Ruoxi's interpretation in "Startling by Each Step" was also widely praised.

But Gou Shixi has also said many times that she is not a person with special talents and her acting range is relatively narrow.

But she was unwilling to do so.

My boyfriend only needs one more Best Actor trophy to unlock two Grand Slam achievements in the field of TV dramas.

But she has never won even a real trophy.

Among the three major TV drama awards, the Golden Eagle Audience Favorite Actress Award, which has the lowest gold content, seems like an insurmountable chasm for her and is out of reach.

Hey, why is this dog so good? Why can't he share some of his talent with me? It would be better if the baby I have in the future is like him. Well, if it's a girl, her temperament should be like mine. This dog is too mean, not good. If it's a boy, it's better to be like him. He is mean and attractive to girls. Should I have a boy or a girl? Forget it, let's have two. It doesn't matter whether he has an IQ or not.
She was lost in thoughts, her head was like paste. She glanced at Lu Yuan, only to see him suddenly stand up and hug her in his arms with great excitement.

Hey, what's wrong with him?
Liu Shishi was a little confused. In public, she rarely saw such an expression on her boyfriend's face because he was always so calm and composed.

Oh my, you shameless bastard, how could you kiss yourself in front of so many people?

She looked around shyly. What was going on? Why was everyone staring at me?
Why is Zhao Wenzhuo giving himself a thumbs up?

Until she unconsciously looked at the screen behind the stage.

A TV actress that is loved by the audience.

——Liu Shishi!
