Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 300, page 299: Golden Rooster Award-winning actor Lin Shaobai! Zhou Ye bends over (5K)

Four-character was the least favored one among the boys.

Maybe, as they say, she's not as good-looking as the first two.

The early battles between Clover fans and Planet fans are still vivid in my memory.

At the time, everyone thought that Kai Zi and Wang Yuan's relationship would only get better and better.

And then...

With both popularity and substantial works, he is undoubtedly the best among the three.

Although Kai doesn't have a bunch of representative works with four characters, at least he hasn't reached the point of being ridiculed by everyone.

The second child fared much worse.

Because he's bad at singing and bad at acting, he was even mocked for taking online courses at a top music academy.

Those music academies produce top-tier musicians!

Wang Yuan's abilities clearly don't seem to belong to a student from a music academy.

So much so that whenever a video of him singing appears, everyone says he learned music at KFC or Dijon.

Lin Shaobai chatted briefly with the four men before entering the Golden Rooster Awards venue.

Not long after, the live stream officially began.

More netizens flocked to the live stream of this year's Golden Rooster Awards.

As soon as the live stream started, Wang Churan immediately clicked into the live stream room.

I'm still hoping that Lin Shaobai can win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor this time.

Even though no awards have been announced yet, Ms. Wang has already begun to imagine Lin Shaobai receiving the trophy.

Her friend standing next to her looked at her infatuated expression with a sense of helplessness.

"What are you doing, looking like a lovesick woman?"

"what?"

Wang Churan didn't react.

"I'm telling you, you're really acting like a lovesick woman right now. You're a popular female celebrity, shouldn't you at least maintain some basic self-respect?"

"Oh dear, she's a popular female celebrity outside, but if she has to maintain a certain image at home all the time, wouldn't that be crazy? She must be living a very tiring life."

Wang Churan tidied her hair and continued watching the Golden Rooster Awards live.

Lin Shaobai's girlfriends all have their hearts set on him, so they naturally wouldn't miss such an important awards ceremony.

Tian Xiwei had just finished her run and was now walking slowly around the lake.

The team members quickly followed behind and said, "Sister, the Golden Rooster Awards live broadcast has started, do you want to watch it?"

"Oh? It's starting so soon."

Tian Xi opened her big eyes slightly.

"Yes, after all, we've been running for a long time, and it's just the time for the live broadcast to start."

Tian Xiwei took the phone from the staff member, opened the Weibo post about the Golden Rooster Award nominations, and recalled the past again.

When the Golden Rooster Award nominations were first announced, they went viral, and she was happy for Lin Shaobai at the time.

"I think……"

Tian Xiwei held her phone in one hand and put her other hand in the pocket of her coat.

As the weather got colder in November, Xiaotian thought he would take a break after this run.

It was really a bit cold; sometimes, the wind felt like a blunt knife slicing across my cheeks.

It blows so hard it hurts.

"This year, Lin Shaobai will most likely win the Best Actor award at the Golden Rooster Awards again."

Tian Xiwei said this.

"I think so too." The staff member's first reaction was definitely to agree with their artist, and only then would they start to analyze the situation seriously.

Of the nominees, Lin Shaobai has the highest probability of winning!

Whether considering his acting skills or the film's subject matter, his chances of winning an award are over 60%.

At that moment, Zhou Ye and Xue Er were at Bai Chen Entertainment Company.

Kong Xueer played the second female lead, Miao Ansu, in the TV series "Ninefold Purple". This character was certainly not as outstanding as the female lead, but she also showed everyone that in addition to being a good dancer, she is also a good actress!
At least he doesn't have facial features that look completely out of place when he acts in a drama.

This is also thanks to Lin Shaobai for enrolling them in acting classes during their trainee period.

Lin Shaobai knew that idols in China would have a one- or two-year group contract after participating in talent shows, and that they would eventually have to return to acting after the group contract ended.

Idols who become actors will definitely not do as well as professional actors, since they are changing their major.

But no matter what, your acting skills have to be up to par; at least you have to compete with them.

"I've discovered that it's quite easy for actors to become famous."

At this moment, Kong Xueer and Zhou Ye were both in the company's dance practice room. She showed Zhou Ye the fan data she had gained recently because of her role in a TV series.

Yes! A very obvious trend of increasing followers.

He can be considered to have created his own representative work.

Although she was only the second female lead.

Zhou Ye smiled and put his arm around Xue'er's arm: "I watched your performance as Miao Ansu in the movie, it was really good, you're a very talented actress."

“Don’t try to flatter me just because we have a good relationship,” Kong Xueer said.

Zhou Ye immediately withdrew his hand, put his hands on his hips, and said, "You don't believe me?"

Kong Xueer: "No, no, no, don't misunderstand. After all, you're a very nice person. You might be saying this on purpose to comfort me."

"No, that's not true. As a professional actor, I'd say your performance was really good."

"That's good. I thought you were just being polite."

"Now that it's just the two of us, there's no need for formalities. Besides, even if you don't believe me, you have to believe our CEO Lin, who's a Hundred Flowers Award-winning actor."

Their eyes then fell on the live broadcast of the Golden Rooster Awards on their phones.

They then looked up at each other and said, "I think Lin Shaobai will win Best Actor at this year's Golden Rooster Awards."

Two seconds after they finished speaking, the two of them froze.

I never expected we would have such great chemistry.

"Ha ha!"

Zhou Ye chuckled twice, then naturally put his arm around Xue'er's shoulder: "It seems we really are on the same page."

"By the way, Xue'er, I heard that you seemed to have given up on a period drama called 'Ink Rain and Clouds' last time."

"How should I put it? I wouldn't say I gave up, would I? Well... it's just that I wasn't very interested at the time, and I felt that Wang Churan might be more suitable for the role than me, plus she didn't have any period dramas airing."

"I knew it! I told you you were a really good person."

"Haha. It has nothing to do with me personally, I just think she's suitable. I did get approached by another period drama recently. They said they hoped to work with me and President Lin."

"What kind of drama is it?" Kong Xueer asked curiously as she leaned closer.

"It's also a period drama called 'Bending the Waist'. Actually, the background world of this drama is a bit like the Three Kingdoms period, but it will definitely have to be changed in the end."

"Oh. Have you thought it through? Are you going to go on this show?"

"Of course, we definitely can't miss this show again, and President Lin also thinks it's a great opportunity."

"Oh."

The drama "Bend the Waist" has achieved excellent viewership and has entered Tencent's 3 popularity club.

For various reasons, this drama was delayed for a long time before it was finally broadcast.

Fortunately, it was well received after it aired.

Lin Shaobai has already agreed to play the male lead, Lord Wei Shao, in this drama.

Zhou Ye will play the female lead, Manman, also known as Xiao Qiao, in this drama.

This Xiao Qiao is just a name; she is not the historical figure Xiao Qiao.

"But speaking of which, I saw the Best Actress nominations this time, and the little girl who acted in the movie with President Lin was actually..."

Kongsel was particularly surprised.

How old is that little girl who acted alongside President Lin?

She's already been nominated for Best Actress?!
Although everyone knows that little girls this age can't win awards, and their competitors at the same age are all award-winning actresses.

It's already incredible that she was nominated for Best Actress at such a young age.

"Oh...that little girl's acting was really good, I admired her after watching the movie."

"I'm just hoping I'll get nominated for Best Actress someday."

Kong Xueer suddenly lay down on the floor of the dance studio, raised her head, looked at the ceiling, and said.

Zhou Ye was clearly taken aback.

An unusual awkward silence fell over the entire dance studio.

Seeing that Zhou Ye sitting next to her didn't react much, Kong Xueer quickly stood up and smiled to ease the awkward atmosphere: "Just kidding, isn't it a pipe dream for someone like me, who didn't graduate as a professional actor, to win Best Actress?"

"actually……"

"Ah, I admit, of course there are still many people who didn't graduate from a vocational college and won Best Actress awards. Those people have a lot of talent, you know. I'm very clear about my own abilities. I just like dancing. As for acting, it's just to have more work. There are very few stages left for us in the Chinese entertainment industry."

Kong Xueer seemed to have anticipated what Zhou Ye was going to say and interrupted him in advance.

Since things had come to this point, Zhou Ye couldn't say anything more.

The two could only continue watching the Golden Rooster Awards live.

Several awards have already been announced at the Golden Rooster Awards. However, for most netizens, the most important awards are undoubtedly Best Actor and Best Actress.

The barrage comments during the Golden Rooster Awards livestream were strikingly similar to those during the Hundred Flowers Awards, with everyone spamming Lin Shaobai's name.

The fan group was in an uproar.

I think my son, Shaobai, has great taste. He probably chose "Major Events in Life" with the intention of winning awards.

[So, didn't he already win the Best Actor award at the Hundred Flowers Awards?]

[I feel that this year's Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor still belongs to our Shao Bai! Look at the other nominees. Of course, I'm not saying the other actors aren't good, but in terms of subject matter, this drama is the most suitable.]

[Ahem! A professional blogger predicts that Lin Shaobai will win the Best Actor award at this year's Golden Rooster Awards.]

Although the probability is high, don't get too excited yet. The worst thing you can do is openly celebrate halfway through the game.

【That’s right.】

The awards ceremony proceeded smoothly.

Lin Shaobai sat quietly in the audience the whole time, clapping whenever someone won an award, and smiling slightly when the camera was on him.

After a very long time, the Best Actor award was finally announced.

And this period of time has seen the highest level of popularity so far.

Many passersby entered the live stream room to speak.

[I've been waiting all night, and the Best Actor award has finally been announced.]

[The hosts this time are actually Chao Ge and Huang Bo!]

Haha, why do I feel like Brother Chao doesn't age at all?

I bet 100 yuan that Lin Shaobai will win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor this year.

I'll bet five cents then; I really don't have that much money.

I think it should be four characters.

[Among them, the one with the least chance of winning Best Actor is probably the one with the number 4. Fans shouldn't be too biased.]

[To be honest, I'm not a fan of any of these five nominees. I'm just speaking from an outsider's perspective, and Lin Shaobai's acting was really good.]

Don't let Lin Shaobai's youth fool you; he's a Hundred Flowers Award-winning actor.

I'm so excited! I really want to see who will win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor this year!

During the live broadcast of the Golden Rooster Awards, the two hosts joked with each other for a while before getting back to the main topic when it was almost time to finish.

"Next, we would like to invite the presenter for the Best Actor award, Ning Jing, Liu Dehua!"

"welcome!"

The live band played strings, and the drumbeats progressed slowly like a heartbeat, filling the air with a tense yet expectant atmosphere.

The two prize-giving guests walked side by side to the microphone.

He's holding the list of winners for Best Actor at the 35th Golden Rooster Awards.

At this point, Lin Shaobai became nervous again.

Good evening, everyone. I'm Ning Jing.

"Hello everyone, I am Liu Dehua."

This group of award presenters is definitely heavyweight; no wonder they're presenting the award to the Best Actor.

"As everyone knows, Mr. Lau Tak-wah has been nominated for the Hong Kong Film Awards multiple times, winning the Best Actor award three times. I really want to ask on behalf of everyone: are you always particularly nervous at this time, or do you become more relaxed as the competition progresses?"

"Actually, I get very nervous every time I'm shortlisted."

"It's still a very normal reaction."

"Yes. Because actors really want to be recognized and appreciated by everyone. It's both nerve-wracking and exciting."

"What I want to add is that we actors are often passive. If we don't encounter a good director, a good script, and a good team, it's probably difficult for us to deliver a good performance. So, a good movie is what truly matters."

"Alright, let's not waste any more time. Let's take a look at the big screen."

The large screen immediately displayed the list of nominees for Best Actor at the 35th Golden Rooster Awards.

Film clips of the five nominated male actors were also played.

Shen Teng plays Dugu Yue in "Walking Alone on the Moon".

Wu Jing plays Wu Qianli in "The Battle at Lake Changjin"

Xu Zheng plays Lao Bai in "The Myth of Love"

[Four-character actor, Jing Hao, in "Miracle Kid"]

Lin Shaobai plays Mo Sanmei in "Major Events in Life"

After the video finished playing, the camera focused on the five nominated actors.

Neither Shen Teng nor Xu Zheng came, so the big screen only showed the images of Wu Jing and Lin Shaobai.

This has left many people wondering.

Does their absence mean the Best Actor award will ultimately be between Wu Jing and Lin Shaobai?

[It's very possible. If you don't come, the chances of winning are almost zero.]

That's true. Apparently, everyone knew this beforehand. So many people who knew they hadn't won didn't even come.

[Not necessarily. The lottery results are coming up soon, hurry!]

"Got it!" Ning Jing deliberately dragged out the sound, and quickly glanced at the audience.

Lin Shaobai held his breath slightly, and even some actors who were not nominated for Best Actor clenched their fists.

It seems like they themselves don't even know what they're nervous about.

Perhaps it was the atmosphere that created the atmosphere?
"The winner of the Best Actor award at the 35th Golden Rooster Awards is..."

"Lin Shaobai! 'Major Events in Life'!"

At that moment, the entire audience erupted in thunderous applause.

Lin Shaobai could finally let out the breath he had been holding in.

Ni Ni, sitting next to President Lin, was equally happy for him.

The hands clapping were so high they were almost touching a person's face.

At the same time, Tian Xiwei, who was watching the live stream at home, suddenly jumped up from the sofa.

She clenched her fist, as excited as if her team had scored in the match she had been following closely!
"Great!"

"He's won another Best Actor award!"

"This Mo Sanmei is practically the role Lin Shaobai played in his life."

Tian Xiwei suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Because Lin Shaobai has played so many classic roles.

Phoenix, Han Shangyan, Zhang Wansen, Sixth Young Master, Xiao Bei, Dongfang Qingcang, Fang Yifan, Wang Xin, Li Xun, and so on.

In that sense, each of them represents a role in life.

"Oh well, never mind, anyway..."

As Tian Xi's initial excitement subsided, her gaze softened and became more affectionate as she looked at Lin Shaobai in the live stream.

"Congratulations, Kobayashi."

Wang Churan was already hugging her friend next to her and screaming loudly.

"Ahhh! He's the best actor! He won Best Actor again!"

"I told you, it would definitely be Lin Shaobai this time! Look at the other nominees, they can't possibly beat Mo Sanmei."

Ms. Wang's friend couldn't hear what was being said after the moment she screamed.

The sound was so loud!

Zhou Ye and Kong Xueer were so excited in the dance studio that they jumped from one side to the other.

Lin Shaobai is her senior's boyfriend, so it's normal for her to be happy.

He was very kind to Bai Chen, and Xue Er was genuinely happy for him.

The fans in the live stream chat were sending out a barrage of comments.

Some of them were crying uncontrollably!

[Waaaaah! I cried!]

Lin Shaobai truly deserves the title!

[Mo Sanmei has already earned Lin Shaobai two awards; sometimes an actor just needs to find a good role.]

It wasn't easy, Shao Bai!

Lin Shaobai, you are my god!

[That's fantastic! Just like I predicted, he'll be the Best Actor. The other four actors didn't perform as well as him at all, not to mention the subject matter of "Life Matters" is so good.]

I'm still in shock; I was screaming like crazy in my dorm.

Lin Shaobai, I love you!

Lin Shaobai currently holds two Best Actor awards and remains a top-tier star with an overwhelming lead; he is truly unstoppable.

[It wasn't for nothing! I've finally gotten the result I wanted to see.]

Inside the awards ceremony venue, Lin Shaobai embraced the actors around him before walking onto the stage to the sound of rousing music.

Meanwhile, Chao Ge continued reading his script on stage.

"The jury's comments were: Lin Shaobai's portrayal of the character's upbringing and life experiences in the film 'Life's Big Events' was precise and meticulous, highlighting the actor's observation and expressiveness of life, and creating a rich and three-dimensional portrayal of Mo Sanmei's outward roguishness and inner warmth and kindness... Therefore, he is hereby awarded the Best Actor Award!"
