Chapter 182: Can you play with scarves like this?
"So, did you win the prize?"

"I don't know. The live broadcast of 1905 Movie Network is lagging."

"Alas, it's a pity that our magazine is so poor that we can't even afford to send a reporter to the scene."

Inside an entertainment tabloid, several editors sighed.

News requires timeliness. By the time they find out whether Xu Ming won the award or not, other media outlets may have already announced it.

At this moment, another editor who was busy playing with his phone shouted, "Awards! Xu Ming won the Best Newcomer Award."

"Which newspaper publishes so quickly?" a colleague asked in surprise.

"No, Xu Ming posted it on Weibo himself, with a photo of him, the trophy and the award presenter Jiang Wen," said the editor.

Everyone immediately looked at each other.

Then he quickly took out his cell phone and looked at Xu Ming’s Weibo.

【Xu Ming: Thank you all and the judges for your recognition. This is my first trophy. I hope to continue to work hard in the future.】

Below is a photo of him with the trophy and Jiang Wen.

For a moment, all the editors in the office were silent.

They suddenly felt abandoned by the new era.

So you can play with scarves like this?
……

And under Xu Ming’s scarf.

Many netizens are also extremely active.

In the past, we had to wait for CCTV to review and broadcast it, or for it to be replayed the next day.

For example, this year's Hundred Flowers Awards will start at 7pm, but CCTV's Six Princesses will not premiere until 35:pm.

It’s nothing like it is now, with live video and the perspective of the parties involved in Weibo.

Netizens have the same feelings as the editors.

It turns out that you can play with scarves like this.

When selfies are combined with film festivals, trophies, and celebrities, the impact it brings to netizens is to change their perceptions.

Currently, the mainstream ways to use Weibo are either to post exquisite photos or to output text.

Although there are people who share their lives, it is rare to see people like Xu Ming who share anytime and anywhere.

"To be honest, I wasn't too fond of Xu Ming before. I've seen his songs and watched his movies, but I can't say I like him. But today, after seeing his Weibo post, I unknowingly clicked to follow him."

"Same here. I feel like I'm not as far away from him as I am from other stars. It's like we're neighbors. We can say hello when we bump into each other downstairs."

"Welcome to join our Qiming Star. Many of us are fans of him because we think he is real enough compared to other stars."

It was originally an interaction between passers-by netizens and fans.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Xu Ming himself responded to the first comment - [Xu Ming: Thank you for your attention].

Oh my god, I still have time to reply to netizens during the award ceremony.

Netizens who were watching the live video on 1905 Movie Network also keenly noticed the scene of Xu Ming fingering his phone and took a screenshot instantly.

Another wave of disturbance was set off.

……

Hundred Flowers Award.

Xu Ming put away his phone and applauded Wang Jia and Xu Jing on stage for winning the Best Supporting Actress award.

The double yolk egg finally arrived.

He just finished sighing, and suddenly came to his senses, lowering his voice and saying: "Uncle Jiang, is it possible that the Best Actor Award is a double yolk?"

"It's unlikely. You're so powerful that if you really give out double yolk eggs, you'll end up pleasing neither side." Jiang Wen shook his head.

"That's fine." Xu Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

If the award was given to both him and Chen Kun at the same time, he would definitely give up.

What's the point of getting half of the prize after working so hard?

After the Best Supporting Actress award was presented, the Best Supporting Actor award followed.

Su Youpeng won the award for "The Whistleblower", which can be considered as breaking a record of varying degrees of success.

He is the first Hong Kong and Taiwan actor to win the award for a villain role. Xu Ming was not idle in the audience, taking pictures with his mobile phone.

Jiang Wen couldn't bear to watch it any longer and said, "You can take pictures faster than the reporters. I don't know if you think you are a spectator in the first row."

"Are we different from the audience? No, it should be you who are different from the audience?" Xu Ming said casually.

Jiang Wen was choked to the point of being speechless, but at least the other party was able to win the award.

His visit this time was purely a formality.

Then he saw the other person fiddling with his phone. He leaned over to take a look and was stunned: "Are you posting this online?"

"Yes, I'm live streaming for netizens." Xu Ming said with a smile.

In this time, he has gained tens of thousands more fans, and the total number of fans has reached 580 million.

Although the increase is not much compared to before, each one is expanding to the limit.

There are only so many active users on Weibo, and most people don’t like to follow posts, or simply don’t follow entertainment stars.

Most of the fans Xu Ming attracted were people who already paid attention to the entertainment industry. After attracting this group of people, it would naturally be twice as difficult to attract the remaining people who did not pay attention.

After all, Weibo fans these days value active fans, not the zombie fans that come later.

Jiang Wen scratched his head. He suddenly felt that he might be lagging behind the times.

Ge You at the side shared the same feeling and said, "I just asked this kid what he was doing. He explained it to me, but I still didn't understand."

"I understand. It's just a Weibo." Jiang Wen said stubbornly.

Although he does not have a verified Weibo account, it does not mean he does not use it.

As he said this, he took out his cell phone, found Xu Ming's Weibo, and saw the exaggerated number of his followers and the active comment section.

Sparks suddenly appeared in my mind.

"You are so active on Weibo, can you help with advertising and promoting movies in the future?" Jiang Wen asked.

An account with five million followers, if converted to the television field, can be comparable to the influence of a popular program.

"Of course, otherwise why would I spend so much time and effort on running it? You can just treat it as a channel for external publicity and packaging. It's nothing more than an artist changing from performing on a show to performing on Weibo."

Xu Ming paused, looked at Jiang Wen who seemed to be thinking about something, and reminded him, "But I won't recommend it to someone of your rank. There are not many benefits, but there are a lot of problems."

The other party has long passed the point where it needs to rely on traffic to maintain its status.

Moreover, movie actors do need to reduce their exposure and maintain a certain sense of mystery in the eyes of the audience.

There were many famous actors in previous lives, such as Huang Bo and Deng Chao.

His acting skills are almost the same as before, but when he returns to making movies, he is not as well recognized by the audience as before.

The bottom line is that the character is not convincing enough for the audience.

When people see you, they think of your image in variety shows, which really affects their immersion in the show.

Fortunately, Xu Ming has always controlled the frequency of his exposure, and the characters he creates are mostly down-to-earth types that do not damage his image.

The effort of the two of them in talking.

The Best Screenwriter and Best Director awards have been presented, and "Aftershock" won two awards in a row. Feng Dapao is in high spirits.

When it came to the Best Actress award, the atmosphere changed noticeably.

Unlike the Best Actor award, Xu Ming directly surpassed Chen Kun.

For the Best Actress award, the competition between Li and Zhao is still in full swing. After the incident of duplicate voting was exposed, the competition seems to have become even more intense.

The two are artists of the same period. Zhao Bat became famous in 98's "Return of the Condor Heroes", and Li Bingbing became known to the audience in 00's "Young Justice Bao".

There is also competition for resources now.

"Congratulations to Bart Zhao of "Mulan"."

The award presenter shouted and the result was announced.

The camera swept over Li Bingbing, who was clapping with a normal expression.

It was just that Zhao Bat was absent due to pregnancy and was not present at all, so Chen Kun took the stage to lead the show on her behalf.

Xu Ming's heart began to beat fast as he applauded the announcement of the Best Actress winner.

After working so hard for so long, it’s finally time to reap the rewards.
