Huayu: I'm reborn, but you still force me to be a scumbag?

Chapter 366 Dual Legend
"Wow!"

This caused the whole audience to burst into an uproar!

At this time, everyone in the audience, as long as they had an IQ, knew what was going on. If they still didn't understand, they only needed to turn around and look at the expressions of the judges.

Although I don't know why this would be unnecessary?
However, after a brief reaction of surprise, the audience immediately burst into thunderous applause.

There was no way, because the lens of the main camera position began to scan the entire scene.

It felt like reviewing a military parade.

Who knows, I might even replay it later to see if anyone is bold enough to jump out and disrupt the situation.

At the same time, when the vote count on the screen finally froze, the two hosts on the stage finally reacted and announced loudly:

"Congratulations Chen Nuo!"

"Congratulations to Chen Nuo for winning the Best Actor Award at the 30th Hundred Flowers Awards!"

After this voice appeared, the people in dormitory 322 of Beijing Film Academy also started shouting.

Bao Wei shouted, "It really is Chen Nuo. Isn't that exactly the same as the list on the Internet?"

Yang Zi said: "What's so strange about this? Who else could it be if not Chen Nuo? Tell me."

Bao Wei said: "It's so strange. Why is there no voting screen this time? We can only see the final result. Also, the votes are too evenly distributed, right? It doesn't feel normal at all."

Yang Zi said: "What's wrong? Hey, if there is really a conspiracy, it can't be Chen Nuo, okay?"

Xu Xiyang said: "Zi is right. It's okay for others, but it's impossible for Chen Nuo. Berlin has won the award, so Baihua can't not give it to him."

Bao Wei said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you two keep contradicting me? I can't even doubt you..."

Suddenly, she looked at Dilireba who was listening very seriously, and was stunned for a moment, then said word by word: "Xiao Di, I was just joking just now, you didn't take it seriously, did you?"

Dilireba was a little puzzled: "Why? I think what you said makes sense. There is something wrong with this matter. I also think there is something fishy going on."

Bao Wei said anxiously: "I'm not... I really don't mean that... Please don't..."

Yang Zi laughed in her heart and interrupted, "Okay, Wei, don't worry, Xiao Di won't sue you. Chen Nuo is going to the stage to receive the award, look."

……

Chen Nuo stood up amid the host's congratulations and first hugged Donnie Yen on his left.

Then he turned around and opened his arms towards Zhang Guoli.

When Zhang Guoli looked at him, he felt as if he had swallowed a dozen flies and felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit.

But, as I said before, the overall situation is more important.

Having worked in the country for so many years, he certainly knows the weight of these four words.

When the dark lens of the camera swept over, no matter how unhappy he was, he could only force a smile, slowly stood up, and squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "Congratulations."

Teacher Zhang Guoli looks exactly like Chiang Kai-shek when he was hiding in the cracks of the rocks in Xi'an and was caught by a few soldiers.

Chen Nuo couldn't help but smile and said, "Thank you Jiang... Teacher Zhang, it seems like you didn't teach well today. I'll listen attentively next time."

After saying this, without even looking at Zhang Guoli's face which had instantly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, he stretched out his hand and shook hands with Chen Kun again.

Chen Kun smiled naturally and happily: "Congratulations, you really deserve it."

Chen Nuo smiled and replied, "Thank you."

Then it was You Yong who also congratulated politely.

Of course Chen Nuo could feel it too.

Except for Donnie Yen, only one point of the congratulations from the other three people were genuine at best.

Someone like Chen Kun probably won’t get any points at all.

Because what happened just now was indeed a bit unreasonable.

But he doesn't care about that.

Chen Nuo came out from his seat and walked towards the stage.

Regardless of whether it was sincere or not, there were quite a lot of people who stood up and applauded at this time, such as Zhou Xun, Su Qi, Ge You, Huang Jianxin, etc.

However, there were many people who did not stand up, such as Feng Xiaogang and Zhao Wei.

Lao Mouzi was sitting in the middle seat, smiling like a blooming old chrysanthemum.

Chen Nuo walked over and gave him a big hug.

He really couldn't care about the rest of the people. Even his old friend Zhou Xun, he could only smile and wave. Zhou Xun mouthed back, "Great."

"Congratulations, congratulations Chen Nuo!"

"Congratulations to Chen Nuo. Please welcome the award presenters, Simon Yam and Chin Yi."

Amid the repeated congratulations from the two hosts, Chen Nuo walked up to the podium and received the trophy and certificate from Simon Yam and Ms. Qin Yi. After thanking them and exchanging a few words, he caught a glimpse of Tu Jingwei who had not left the stage but was standing aside, looking at him with a smile, obviously waiting for him.

He walked over with a smile and they hugged each other briefly.

Tu Jingwei said sincerely: "Congratulations."

A light fragrance wafted to his nose and his hand touched the soft waist, although this might be the 200th congratulations Chen Nuo heard in just over a minute.

But facing this beautiful host whom he had just met, Chen Nuo always felt particularly friendly and whispered back, "Thank you."

Tu Jingwei only felt a heat coming from her earlobe. She suppressed the throbbing in her heart and stepped aside quietly. Looking at the man's back, she suddenly felt a sense of emotion in her heart. It turned out that the once young boy had quietly grown into an adult.

Chen Nuo stood on the stage, looking at the star-studded audience.

It can be said that more than half of the current big names in the Chinese entertainment industry have come.

No wonder people say that the 30th Hundred Flowers Awards is the most star-studded one in history.

He thought that after attending so many award ceremonies, from Cannes to Berlin, his mood would not fluctuate too much, but at this moment he found that he was wrong.

Facing these familiar faces with black eyes and black hair in the audience, he felt mixed emotions.

It’s like no matter how much you have achieved outside, sometimes, it’s not as good as a word of recognition from your parents when you return home.

Although...but...there were some twists and turns in the middle,

However, the title of Best Actor at the 30th Hundred Flowers Awards was finally given to him.

At this moment, I really feel like a winner takes all.

And this truth should be understood not only by him, but also by Zhang Guoli and Chiang Kai-shek.

He calmed down and began to speak sincerely: "Thank you to the 101 judges for their votes, and thank you to the Hundred Flowers Organizing Committee. Thank you to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles. Thank you to the leaders of the Film Association."

Even though Chen Nuo has thanked the Cannes Organizing Committee, the Berlin Organizing Committee, and the Academy Awards, it is estimated that all of these combined would not be half as sincere as they are now.

Because this is really true!
Seeing his sincere words, Deputy Director Zhang in the audience felt relieved.

In fact, before Chen Nuo came to power, Zhang Pingmin was vaguely worried.

Because he knew that this young man was good at talking most of the time, but sometimes he could speak without restraint, such as when he scolded Sun Haiying and Lv Liping because of his agent.

Would he think he was wronged today and start to speak out on stage? His worries were mostly dispelled after hearing this opening.

And then, the more he listened, the more moved he became. At the end, he turned to Kang Jianmin and said, "This is a sincere heart. Jianmin, go back and discuss it with your Chairman Li and send someone to contact him as soon as possible."

Kang Jianmin also nodded and said, "Okay, I'll report to Mr. Li tomorrow."

Chen Nuo did not expect that his words would make Deputy Director Zhang determined to incorporate him into the system, and he could not wait.

He was just returning the favor and wanted to do something to repay the organization for its help today.

Without an organization, how could Jiang... no, Zhang Guoli, understand what is fucking fair! ? How could he get rid of the anger in his chest?

I probably won’t be able to sleep well when I go back tonight.

So, after thanking Zhang Yimou, the director of Under the Hawthorn Tree, the crew, the actors, his alma mater, his agent, etc., he changed the subject and said, "Finally, I want to share one thing."

"Just now, I was in the audience and heard Mr. Yu Yang talk about his acting career after receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award. He also talked about his current regrets. He said that he only regretted not being 20 years younger. Because he wanted to continue to interpret the stories of those heroic characters."

"I want to tell Mr. Yu Yang that although I cannot get back the past twenty years for you, I am willing to contribute my own humble efforts to your unfulfilled regrets. Thank you, thank you everyone."

……

……

"Chen Nuo won the Best Actor Award at the 30th Hundred Flowers Film Festival."

"The Best Director award went to Feng Xiaogang of If You Are the One. Zhang Yimou didn't take it seriously and was chatting and laughing with Chen Nuo after the party."

"The Founding of a Republic was voted the best film with a high vote."

"Best Actress Zhao Wei shed tears at the scene, Liu Yifei was absent from the awards ceremony, perhaps because she had already been selected."

"The fairness of this year's Hundred Flowers Awards has once again sparked controversy! The final winners are almost identical to the list circulated online beforehand! Is this a conspiracy or a coincidence?"

"Chen Nuo said in his acceptance speech that he wanted to make a mainstream film? He admitted it in the subsequent interview."

"Chen Nuo's award sparked controversy? Are the rumors of electronic display screen failure true or false?"

"Kang Jianmin, vice chairman of the Film Association, praised Chen Nuo's acceptance speech and said that Chinese films have successors."

The next day, all kinds of news about the 30th Hundred Flowers Awards set off the entire Internet and media.

If it were any other day, it might not have been so popular, but what happened that night is really worth talking about.

"Stop arguing. I believe others. There is no way there is any shady deal in Chen Nuo's award."

“It should be a technical problem.”

"Those who say there is something fishy going on in Chen Nuo's winning of the award, please first scold the judges of Cannes, Berlin and Oscars one by one. Oh, and the Golden Horse Awards, and all the Joker fans and Twilight fans around the world."

"Saying that there was some shady deal behind Chen Nuo's winning of the Hundred Flowers Award is not an insult to Chen Nuo, it's an insult to the aesthetic taste of the 101 judges."

"Don't argue about it. Several judges have said in interviews that there was no conspiracy and they all voted on their own. It was just that the voting machine malfunctioned at the beginning. It was indeed a technical failure."

"Did you notice that Zhao Wei didn't even stand up when Chen Nuo won the award?"

"She must be unhappy. She has such a good relationship with Chen Kun."

"If Chen Nuo shoots a main theme film, I'd really like to see it."

"I guess I was just joking, but you guys took it seriously. It's so funny."

"I also want to watch the main theme movie directed by Chen Nuo! I am absolutely sure it will be the first main theme movie to win the box office championship in history! It is definitely better than The Founding of a Republic!"

"Han Sanping cut Chen Nuo's scenes in The Founding of a Republic to only three seconds. I laughed." "I hope Chen Nuo can let Han Sanping know what a real mainstream movie is. What kind of movie is The Founding of a Republic? I don't know whether to watch a movie or count the stars."

"Chen Nuo, hurry up and shoot! Win the box office championship and beat Han Sanping to the ground!"

When Fan Binbing saw this, she finally couldn't help laughing.

If it were a year ago, she might not understand why Chen Nuo said that?
With his current status and position, what kind of movie can he not get?

Why do you have to take the initiative to take over the main theme?

Mainstream films pay very little and do not do his international reputation any good, do they?

She had thought this way many times in the past and couldn't understand his decision.

And this time, she finally understood his intentions in advance.

Indeed, on the road of life, it is not important to walk fast. What is important is to take every step steadily.

From now on, she will no longer be the workaholic Fan Binbing who only thinks about how much money she can make and how much gold she can put on her face, and would like to work 365 days a year.

As a mother, she wants to give her child a stable home, a place that can protect him from wind and rain no matter what happens in the future.

Since August, Fan Binbing has hardly gone out.

Although Bridle Path is a wealthy area in Toronto known for its low-key luxury and high privacy, with luxury houses widely spaced, shaded by green trees and almost no one to disturb them, she still rarely takes the risk of going out for safety reasons.

Every day in the house, besides listening to prenatal education music to soothe the little one in my belly, doing some light stretching exercises on the yoga mat, taking a walk, and reading various domestic news.

After reading all those messy comments on the Internet, I saw the man holding the Hundred Flowers trophy and certificate, smiling brightly in front of the cameraman.

A gentle smile appeared at the corner of Fan Binbing's mouth, and then she stood up by holding the armrest of the chair.

At this time, the local nanny, a middle-aged Toronto native woman named Marissa, came over with a cup of warm tea for pregnant women.

Marissa was a nanny she hired in early September through a high-end housekeeping service company in Toronto, a type of nanny who specializes in caring for women in their late stages of pregnancy.

This company specializes in taking orders from wealthy areas and introduces only experienced locals. Marissa has worked in nursing for more than ten years and has a certificate in maternity and postpartum nursing.

She comes five days a week, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day, and is responsible for preparing nutritious meals for Fan Binbing, accompanying her for walks, watching her do prenatal exercises, and cleaning the house.

The salary is calculated on an hourly basis, 20 Canadian dollars an hour, 8 hours a day is 160 Canadian dollars, and 5 days a week is 900 Canadian dollars.

Although the price was a little high, Fan Binbing was quite satisfied considering that it included a confidentiality agreement.

What's more, Marissa was quick and nimble, and her speech was humorous, which brought a lot of fun to her boring and depressed days.

Just then, Marissa came over with a cup of tea. When she saw her expression, she exclaimed in an exaggerated manner: "Oh, dear Fan, you finally smiled. Let me think about it. The last time I saw you smile seemed to be last century."

Fan Binbing laughed even louder: "Haha, don't be so exaggerated, Marissa."

Marissa said with a smile on her face, "Anyway, you really should smile more, Van. You know, I've served so many clients, and my experience is that a smile is good for every baby that's about to be born. What's more, I swear to God, the smile on your face may be the most beautiful I've ever seen in my life. You really should smile more."

"Thanks, Marissa, I will."

"OK, come, drink this cup of tea, and I'll help you walk in the yard."

Five minutes later, Fan Binbing, holding her waist and supported by Marissa, walked slowly in the backyard of the Bridpath mansion.

The yard of the villa she rented was as big as half a football field, surrounded by neatly trimmed holly hedges that blocked all sightlines. There was a path paved with fine cobblestones underfoot, which was a bit rough on the feet, but still comfortable.

On the right is a small fountain, with water flowing into the marble pool below. Next to it are a few pots of blooming autumn chrysanthemums.

On the left is a lawn, the grass is trimmed as flat as a carpet, and in the distance there is an old maple tree, which rustles when the wind blows.

Marissa asked curiously, "Fan, you seem to be in a really good mood today. Can you tell me why?"

Fan Binbing shook her head and said, "I just saw some photos of old friends on the Internet, so I was a little happy."

"The baby is due on the 20th of next month, Fan. Although this is your private matter, I want to know if the father of the child will be here by then?"

Fan Binbing subconsciously touched her bulging belly, smiled, and said, "No, I won't."

"Fan, this isn't a good idea. I sincerely suggest that no matter what your past with him is, you should have a good talk with him. Don't easily choose to bear everything alone and become a single mother. I've seen too many similar examples. This is unfair to the children, and you will be overwhelmed and even crushed."

"Okay, stop talking, Marissa. Thank you for your kindness, but I have already made up my mind about this matter. Don't talk about it anymore."

"Okay, okay, but I'm really doing this for your own good..." Marissa continued to mutter, and Fan Binbing shook her head helplessly.

At this time, the two of them were walking on the flower path near the wall in the backyard. The cobblestone path under their feet was lined with autumn chrysanthemums. When the wind blew, the faint fragrance of flowers mixed with the rustling sound of maple leaves drifted over.

Fan Binbing didn't know that on the sidewalk just across the wall from her, two men - one with black hair and the other with brown hair - had just gotten into a gray van.

"Are you sure your girlfriend's boss is that big star? She lives here now?" asked the brown-haired white man with a squint.

"Yes, I saw their photo with my own eyes on her phone. The woman's name is Fan Binbing, and she's the most famous female star in China. Do you know Zhang Ziyi? They are on the same level." The black-haired, Asian-looking man lowered his voice and said with a smug look on his face.

"Shit, you mean she's pregnant and she didn't tell anyone and now she's hiding out here?"

"Yeah, yeah. Hey, my girlfriend has been talking about her boss, and she said she's going to be a single mom. But she never told me who her boss is. Until I cracked her phone password. Do you know how much this information is worth?"

"No, I do not know."

"Alan, if we can take a picture of her, I guarantee that all the media in China will wave their money to buy it from us. Then, you and I will become millionaires overnight. Haha, I was wondering why she seemed to have disappeared in the past year. It turns out that she hid in Canada to give birth to a child. Haha."

"...Jeffrey, I'm not sure if what you said is true. I'll go home and Google who this person is and give you an accurate answer then. But can you tell me what you want me to do?"

"OK, it's like this. I've been squatting here for almost a week, and she's never left the house. But I've figured out the pattern. She has a companion who comes back here around 6pm every night, and her nanny gets off work at pm every afternoon. There's about an hour in between when she's alone at home. My idea is that you pretend to be a repairman and ring the doorbell, while I hide on the sidewalk of Bridle Path and take pictures. Because you're a white Canadian, she won't be suspicious, and if I go, I guarantee that she won't open the door when she sees my face."

"It's that simple?"

"Yes, it's that simple. You put on your plumber's clothes, walk over, ring the doorbell, and don't worry about anything else. Just wait for the money to be distributed."

……

……

After finishing the Hundred Flowers Awards trip, Chen Nuo should have flown to the United States without stopping to deal with the matters of Summit Entertainment.

If possible, he needs to quickly sign a contract extension with Summit Entertainment, and then go to Canada to reshoot scenes for "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" so that the movie can be released as scheduled at the end of the year.

This is not only a big deal involving hundreds of millions of dollars, it is also directly related to the option contract he signed with Facebook.

To be honest, if he fails to fulfill his promise, I'm sure Zha will laugh so hard that his jaw will dislocate.

Let’s review what happened:
2009年10月份，陈诺费尽心思跟Facebook签了个合同。约定两年后，也就是2011年10月，他可以用2亿美元买下Facebook 2%的股份。

At that time, Facebook's valuation was still hovering around $100 billion.

因为2007年微软花2.4亿买了1.6%的股份，算下来估值150亿。但2009年5月，俄罗斯的DST投了2亿买了近2%的股份，估值跌到100亿。

Therefore, when Chen Nuo signed the contract, US$2 million for 2%, based on a valuation of 100 billion, was acceptable to both him and Zuckerberg.

However, Zuckerberg probably could not have imagined that in the past two years, his Facebook would develop at a dazzling pace.

By October 2010, that is, right now, Facebook is no longer the social networking site with some potential that it had been two years ago.

Not only has the number of users skyrocketed from 2009 million in 3 to 5 million, it was just announced in July that it had exceeded the 7 million mark. Half of the people are online for 5 minutes every day, and the number of users of the mobile terminal launched at the beginning of this year has also jumped to 34 million.

Revenue is soaring.

In 2009, it was only 7.7 million, but in 2010 it jumped to around 20 billion.

According to some semi-public information, FB is currently in a round of financing led by Goldman Sachs, and its valuation has reached around US$500 billion.

What do you mean?
This means that as long as Chen Nuo exercises his $2 million options, they will immediately be worth $10 billion in the capital market, a full five times increase!
It can be said that when the world economy is still slowly recovering from the 08 financial crisis, once his achievement spreads, it will surely be a double legend of Hollywood and Silicon Valley!

However, there is a prerequisite for this, which is that by October 2011, he has to pay 10 million in real money and hand it over to Facebook.

This is why his contract with the Twilight series is for $2000 million plus a 15% share of the box office.

This is all calculated.

The cash dividend of "Twilight 3" is estimated to be about 5000 million US dollars based on the share of the first two films.

As for "Twilight 4", it was planned to be split into two parts, with the contract signing for each film paying $2000 million plus a 15% share of the box office revenue.

以《暮光2》9亿美元的全球票房为基准，《暮光4》上下两部就算保守点各拿8亿票房，每部15%分成就是1.2亿美元，两部加起来就是2.4亿美元。

Adding the 2000 million yuan salary for each film, the total is 4000 million yuan in cash + 2.4 million yuan in box office share.

银行那边4000万现金能贷85%，就是3400万。2.4亿的分成，银行一般只会给50%的贷款，也就是1.2亿。

Adding them together, the loan can reach 1.54 million US dollars, plus the 3 million cash dividend from "Twilight 5000", the total is 2.04 million, which is just enough for him to exercise the 2 million options.

It fits perfectly.

Therefore, he was so happy when he learned that Summit Entertainment had agreed. He should have flown to California the day after the Hundred Flowers Awards.

But in the end, after discussing with Li Jing and Qi Yuntian, he postponed the trip for two days.

The first is to put a little more pressure on the top.

Second, organize someone to come and talk to him.

In fact, the Film Association can only be considered half an organization, just a mass team under the auspices of an organization.

With 10 billion U.S. dollars in the face, it shouldn't be a problem to delay a little.

But who can blame him for being of a high rank?

It was none other than the current chairman, national first-class director and film artist with outstanding contributions to the country, Li Qiankuan.

The two met on October 2010, 10, three days after the Hundred Flowers Awards, in a time-honored teahouse in Xicheng District, Beijing. The place is called "Lao She Teahouse", not far from the headquarters of the China Film Association.

In addition to Mr. Li, several other vice chairmen were also present, and one of them was an acquaintance of Chen Nuo.

The conversation was not long, about 50 minutes.

When they left, Kang Jianmin and Principal Zheng Zhongjian sent them to the door, and they stood there and chatted for a while.

"Mr. Li hasn't been in good health recently, and he originally planned for me to talk to you first. But after Mr. Li saw your speech at the Hundred Flowers Awards and learned about this matter, he forced himself to come here despite his illness to meet with you in person."

"Mr. Li and I all have one goal, which is to make Chinese films better and better. Now it seems that you, Xiao Chen, do have some unique advantages in this regard, and you have also made some achievements."

"Now, you are the undisputed leader of our Beijing Film Academy. In the future, I hope you can become a leader in Chinese films."

"Principal Zheng is right, but a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. You have to step in first."

"I think the biggest reward for you winning the Hundred Flowers Award this time is that whether it's the National Theatre, the People's Art Theatre, or other art groups, the doors are all open to you and you can choose whatever you want."

“I believe that meeting some veteran artists and learning more diverse and rich performing arts will be helpful to your future acting career.”

"Anyway, think about it carefully. We'll wait for you to come back from the United States."

Ps:

700 monthly votes will add 1500 more words!
