I'm not a drama freak, I can really see through the script

Chapter 306, This year's Golden Eagle Awards are especially prestigious.

"A new Three Kingdoms? I remember people talking about a new Three Kingdoms project a long time ago, so it's true!"

however.

Upon learning of this massive project, Wei Ming's expression was not as good as one might expect.

It's an IP adaptation, has a mature fanbase, and is popular; in some ways, it's an IP work with even greater strength than the Jin Yong series.

It can be said that it exudes an alluring charm from beginning to end.

But this level of intensity also implies this level of 'trap'.
It's not something you can just eat so easily.
Moreover, it is destined to be second best, destined to be the tail of the phoenix.
"This project certainly has a lot of steamy content, but overall, it's not exactly easy for most people to digest."

At this moment, Li Xuan smiled and said.

But I am not the majority.

Rumors spread very quickly, and the news that "New Three Kingdoms" was about to start filming spread like wildfire.

We're paying a lot of attention to it, after all, it's one of the top historical IP themes in the industry.

Huang Xiaoming felt the same way; he also wanted to get a piece of the action in "New Three Kingdoms".

"This piece of meat isn't easy to eat. Unlike your 'The Emperor of Han Dynasty,' this work has too much of a reputation built on the success of its predecessors. But just like that, it's a big piece of meat."

Wang Haiyang only glanced at Huang Xiaoming and offered only a rational analysis.

After filming "New Shanghai Bund", he is now quite familiar with director Gao Xinxin, so getting a second-tier role is not particularly difficult for him.

Moreover, after his confrontation with Li Xuan, the backlash from public opinion led to him being called "Little Li Xuan".

This was an insult to him, a pillar of shame, but after he came out of it, he also achieved a kind of 'sublimation'.

In terms of acting skills and understanding of the character, he abandoned his past impetuousness and seriously studied the character.

Frankly speaking, Huang Xiaoming also said that if it weren't for this crisis of being suppressed by Li Xuan, he might still have used the path-dependent approach to acting when playing Xu Wenqiang, and the effect might not have been very good.

The person I am today despises the person I was in the past.

It was only natural that Li Xuan would win over him.

"I am confident."

"Then go and give it a try." Wang Haiyang looked at Huang Xiaoming, who was bursting with confidence. After all, he was also a prodigy. Although he was half a step behind, he could always catch up.

As for the part about [actors].

"I heard that there will be two directors in charge of filming this time. One is Gao Xinxin, the one you know, and the other is a director assigned by China Film Group, who will film the first and second parts respectively."

Wang Haiyang was not surprised by this, after all, "New Three Kingdoms" is a huge project, and it is unrealistic for one director to finish filming it.

Generally speaking, two directors are usually enough.

The plots of the first and second parts are different, ranging from "The Campaign Against Dong Zhuo" to "The Battle of the Warlords" to "The Unification of the World".

It's not fair to say whose role is more important, since there are excellent characters, excellent actors, and moving storylines throughout the series.

This is precisely the charm of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms." As one of the Four Great Classical Novels, it possesses strength and confidence, truly embodying the essence of the novel rather than being a work with a weak ending. Its high level of completion is precisely why it has withstood the test of history.

"I don't even know who the other director is."

"Putting aside other aspects, China Film Group is still trustworthy when it comes to casting."

Wang Haiyang then said.
He patted Huang Xiaoming on the shoulder and said, "Keep up the good work, you can do it."

It was precisely because of the filming of "New Shanghai Bund" that you had the opportunity to get closer to the director. For example, Li Xuan rejected Gao Xinxin's "New Shanghai Bund" and went to make his own drama.

at this point.

It was an unforeseen mistake.

It is unpredictable, because we do not know what the consequences of refusal will be.

The mistake was missing out on a prime opportunity, which instead brought Huang Xiaoming closer to director Gao Xinxin, allowing him to land a role in the "New Three Kingdoms" project more quickly.

In this regard.

Huang Xiaoming didn't feel much either.

One wrong step, one defeat is nothing; the mistake is making one wrong step after another, leading to defeat at every turn.

If I start winning now, I can still catch up.

"Alright, stop worrying about it. Let's get ready for the Golden Eagle Awards."

"Um"

Golden Eagle Award.

One of the three major awards for domestic TV dramas, why was Zhao Yanzi so outstanding back then? Besides the explosive ratings of "My Fair Princess" being a huge hit, another reason was that Zhao Yanzi won the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actress when she was a senior in college.

She won the title of Best Actress right from her debut.

However, there are still some criticisms within the industry.

For example, Wang Haiyang frankly stated that Zhao Yanzi's success back then also involved an element of luck.

Back then, Zhao Yanzi's only rival was Jiang Wenli's "Holding Hands," which wasn't a very famous work.

The environment is different from that after the millennium.

The period after the millennium can be described as a time when heroes emerged in great numbers.
At this moment, Wang Haiyang chuckled.

"Don't even think about it. There have been many excellent works in the past three years. Winning the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor is not that simple. It's definitely not easy."

"I didn't have any unrealistic ideas," Huang Xiaoming said, shaking his head. "I have some self-awareness."

The Golden Eagle Awards, held every three years, have the highest probability of winning this year, and "Bright Sword" is undoubtedly the one.

"Bright Sword" is considered a pinnacle of the anti-Japanese war drama. Both the acting and the script are top-notch.

Huang Xiaoming didn't think he could get involved with "Bright Sword".

This time, the "male lead" is not himself.

But Wang Haiyang said at this moment.

Although the male lead isn't you, he'll most likely be Li Yunlong from "Bright Sword," but I can tell you in advance who the female lead is.

It's Liu Yifei.

At this moment, Huang Xiaoming was somewhat taken aback.

"She's the best actress?"

A rational discussion reveals that Liu Yifei comes from a wealthy and privileged family.

It all started when I attended her birthday party.

Huang Xiaoming made a decision.

He wanted to flatter her properly. He was very confident in himself and longed to avoid taking 30 years of detours. On the other hand, he and Liu Yifei were constantly sending signals to everyone that they should be good friends.

Huang Xiaoming didn't press the matter further, leaving everyone and everyone else with some dignity.

Don't let things end up with no friends left.

Recently, his voice has become even louder. This time, "The Forbidden Kingdom" has been a huge success from the initial planning stages to the filming, and its popularity has never waned.

Actually, Huang Xiaoming misunderstood this. From the beginning, he thought Liu Yifei's role model was Zhao Yanzi.

In retrospect, her initial role model should have been Zhang Ziyi.

A position that people can only dream of but never attain.

Her starting point was very high, with Li Lianjie and Cheng Shilong providing protection.

What is certain is that when this movie was released, her fame reached its peak.

With this kind of fame, what kind of status is untouchable?

“Well, even I couldn’t possibly know the list of Best Actress winners right now,” Wang Haiyang paused and said, “but I do know for sure that she will definitely be the Best Actress winner at this year’s Golden Eagle Awards.”

"International star, what an enviable natural advantage."

"You should know that, for an actor's fate, innate talent can determine their starting point, but it absolutely cannot determine their future status."

Huang Xiaoming certainly knew what Wang Haiyang meant.

Here is an example of Li Xuan.

Really.

Huang Xiaoming's situation was a bit complicated; he actually got a "lecture" from Li Xuan.

Indeed, Li Xuan is a very clear example. His existence truly showed him what real strength, or purity, is.

However, Huang Xiaoming was also curious.

Since Liu Yifei didn't win Best Actress this time, Wang Haiyang said she was the female lead.

this matter.

What was the final result?

It also arouses curiosity.

However, one thing is certain: neither the Best Actor nor Best Actress awards are intended for the younger generation.

For the past three years, it's still been the old guard fighting like gods.

At this moment, Huang Xiaoming completely put aside his ambitions. He didn't care about being the main character at the Fengyun Grand Ceremony.

Then Wang Haiyang added insult to injury: "You weren't the main character at the last awards ceremony either."

Huang Xiaoming “.”

It's too heartbreaking.

Don't be so direct!
At this moment, Li Xuan packed up and prepared to go to the Golden Eagle Awards.

Once every three years.

The highest award.

Honors and laurels.

Li Xuan originally wanted Luo Jin and the others to come and "mooch" off the carpet, but Gao Yuanyuan did the same after filming the show.

They fell into a state from which they could not extricate themselves.

The long season has a powerful aftereffect.

They were so completely immersed in it that they couldn't extricate themselves.

I was enveloped by this feeling.

He's even stopped going to the Golden Eagle Awards.

She's recovering at home.

The people attending the Golden Eagle Awards this time are Li Xuan, Wei Ming, Han Ping, and Jiang Wen.

Even some of the younger generation who came to walk the red carpet were there. It can only be said that they were invited to the Golden Eagle Film Festival. Li Xuan saw a familiar face.

Huang Shengyi, the once spirited girl still looks radiant, but that's beneath the makeup; a hint of weariness still shines through in her eyes.

However, this time no one paid attention to her entrance, and not many cameras lingered on her.

Because of her betrayal, she has been ostracized in the mainstream Beijing and Hong Kong circles, and now she has gone to the Northeast circle to kneel before the "King of the Northeast".

I really want to act!

That kneeling took away Huang Shengyi's former dignity.

The entertainment industry.

Breach of contract comes at a cost. As long as you can afford to pay the cost, you can do it. But when you can't afford to pay the cost, this breach of contract can send you to hell.

As for the promises made by the Beijing entertainment circle to Huang Shengyi—there was no signed contract, and those promises were worth less than toilet paper.

After abruptly cutting ties with Stephen Chow and blocking him, she had no choice but to go to the Northeast circle, which was far less influential than the Beijing and Hong Kong circles.

at this time.

Upon seeing Li Xuan, Huang Shengyi's eyes flashed with panic. He quickly turned around, only to find himself surrounded by the flashing lights of media reporters. When these lights shone on him, he felt even more embarrassed.

"Senior, I'm not some monster, come here."

"Um"

He hesitated for a moment.

At this moment, Huang Shengyi smiled slightly at the camera, then walked over to Li Xuan's side in her high heels.
Li Xuan is the most sought-after 'newcomer king' in the industry, and the camera immediately turned to Li Xuan.

"Croak! It's Li Xuan!"

"Hello, I heard that your next work is called 'The Long Season,' which is set in Northeast China, and you've invited the well-known supporting actor Fan Wei to play the lead role. Do you have anything to say about that?"

"It's an original script, and I've heard that many people in the industry aren't optimistic about it. Are you worried about being overshadowed by Fan Wei when you're working together?"

"Excuse me."

"You'll know once the film is released."

Li Xuan smiled slightly at the camera and said, "This is definitely a contender for the title of Best Drama of the Year!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the media reporters immediately sensed the information in them and even came up with headlines on the spot.

[Shocking! At the Golden Eagle Awards ceremony, Li Xuan actually said that his peers were all worthless and easily defeated! My "The Long Season" was an instant knockout hit!]

"Don't think I'll be grateful to you just because of this! I... I won't be grateful to you."

"Oh."

“Aren’t you afraid of being taken out of context when you talk like that?” Huang Shengyi couldn’t help but say from the side: “I know how these news media will write it. They’ll probably fan the flames and publish Brother Duan Shui Liu’s picture directly.”

The news media of this era have no integrity—oh wait, when did they ever have any integrity?
Li Xuan was somewhat surprised.

"You even know about Senior Brother Duan Shui Liu, that's impressive, you have a wide range of knowledge."

Aren't you worried about me at all?

"Uh." Li Xuan chuckled at this moment: "If they really publish what Senior Brother Duan Shui Liu said, I think it can be considered as my 'stand-up line,' which can be considered as 'being truthful.'"

Huang Shengyi was stunned.
That's outrageous, absolutely outrageous.

Looking at Li Xuan's handsome face, especially his expressive eyes that conveyed his emotions and feelings without any difficulty.

There was no intention to hide or cover it up.

This junior student truly meant it; he genuinely felt that way from the bottom of his heart.

If they can actually publish the work of the "Broken Water Flow" senior brother, it doesn't matter, because it's just a simple substitute for someone else.

Li Xuan truly has this confidence.

To make one's work a top-tier production.

Huang Shengyi was somewhat dazed at this moment.

Back in the day.

The senior student, who was confident in her own resources, looked down on Li Xuan.

But now it seems.

The clown is himself.

It was that self who had an inflated sense of self-importance.

now.

He then stepped onto this stage.

Regardless, he was invited as a nominee, unlike me, who shamelessly came to walk the red carpet and showcase my resume.

His arrival.

This represents something that is unanimously recognized within the industry, something called strength.

He has that ability.

Walk in through the main entrance with dignity.

Two extremes in status.

At this moment, Huang Shengyi inexplicably felt a certain emotion.

As Li Xuan's senior, she was once considered a prominent figure on campus.

She developed a feeling of longing for him.

Of course, Li Xuan was just doing this on a whim.

No matter what, Li Xuan still has a strong sense of identification with the Beijing Film Academy, and he couldn't possibly let Huang Shengyi, who also came from the Beijing Film Academy, be so embarrassed.

At least it's still somewhat respectable.

at this time.

Jiang Wen laughed from the side.

"Even if you're just here to be a runner-up, it's still an excellent achievement. After all, many people can only come in to be runners-up and don't even qualify. You're a legitimate nominee. Among the younger generation, you're truly outstanding."

On the other side, Wei Ming couldn't help but say something.

Are the three major awards now more prestigious than before?

"That's right, it used to be evaluated once a year, but now it's evaluated once every three years."

Jiang Wen, who was standing next to him, crossed his arms and said...

This can also be considered a historical issue.

Before the millennium.

This award was given annually, but after the millennium, in order to increase the prestige of the awards, the cultural department made film festival awards evaluated at least every two years. Now, the Golden Eagle Award brings together outstanding works from three years.

This can be said to be the most valuable year.

In Jiang Wen's words.

This is also the year when the award is most prestigious.

The unfortunate thing is that...

If it's evaluated once a year.

Li Xuan had the potential to win the Best Actor award and become a true star student, but unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

The benefits of the times also belong to the direction of development. Zhao Yanzi benefited from the benefits of the times, which is also a kind of luck.
