I'm not mentally ill, I'm a master of a thousand faces!

Chapter 483, The Awards and Status Everyone's Fighting For

all the time.

Li Yun's attitude towards his own personality was probably that he felt they were a double-edged sword in his mind.

They have all sorts of desires that vie for their own thoughts, but their abilities also gradually lead them to the pinnacle of those desires.

We must accept their abilities.

We also need to accept the risks they bring.

One's own personality, and another is one's own "original personality".

The person who used this body for eighteen years was a lonely and impoverished drifter in Hengdian.

"What are you spacing out for?" the director's personality muttered to Li Yun from the side.

"I can't even space out?"

"Young man, you still have a long life ahead of you. Why aren't you striving for it?" The director looked at Li Yun with a disappointed expression. "You still have a long life ahead of you. Why aren't you striving for it?"

Li Yun looked at the familiar personality in front of him with a bit of speechlessness.

Filming isn't just about filming all the time; there's also the release, the promotion, and all sorts of other aspects.

If I were to be an actor...

Then there's no need to consider so many things.

But now that I'm a director and a producer, I probably need to consider more things.

Now, the film I need to release next is "Dying to Survive," which will require a period of editing and promotion before it can be released.

The next film to be released and promoted is "Dying to Survive".

And I'm very busy with the things I need to do next.

The TV series "New Three Kingdoms" was submitted for review for the Magnolia Award and the Golden Eagle Award.

"Bodyguards and Assassins" won the Golden Horse Award, the Hong Kong Film Award, and the Hundred Flowers Award.

Each of them received approval and a number of nominations in their respective awards.

It's fair to say that my schedule is completely packed with upcoming events.

"So, this is how it's going to be arranged for me to be the runner-up."

At this moment, in the QQ group, both those who belonged to the "New Three Kingdoms" side and those who belonged to the "Bodyguards and Assassins" side were shouting.

I'm afraid I'll just have to play along.

Those who say this are actually quite confident in themselves and have achieved results. For example, Lu Yi, who performed exceptionally well this time, is "complaining about himself" in a QQ group. With so many big shots around, he'd probably be lucky to even get a nomination as a runner-up.

However, Zhou Yu's portrayal of Zhou Yu in the new Three Kingdoms series has been somewhat of a hit.

Lu Yi certainly doesn't lack good looks; he's a refined gentleman in white robes, and his genuine performance in "New Three Kingdoms" makes him second only to Zhuge Liang in popularity online.

A successful image

Coupled with his immersive and powerful acting, Lu Yi delivered an extraordinary performance in this film.

If he can win the Best Actor award this time, he will be promoted from a top-tier actor to a Best Actor, completely shattering his past image as an "idol".

As an actor who has high aspirations, he doesn't like being called an "idol." In previous years, many people said that he only achieved his current status because of his appearance.

If we can reach the level of Best Actor in a TV series.

All of his labels will be washed away.

"You always get hung up on other people's opinions. In my eyes, you're already a talented actor." At this moment, Sha Yi, who was standing next to him, knew what Lu Yi was thinking.

"I know, but I still need something to prove myself and wash away these labels."

Lu Yi's eyes were burning with intensity at that moment.

This seems to have become a small obsession of his.

I want to break free from this obsession with the label.

This year's Best Actor competition is packed with top contenders, including not only newcomers like him but also seasoned veterans.

Nowadays, everyone in a film crew is no longer a friend, but a rival who competes fiercely against each other. There is only one spot for the best, and everyone wants to be that best, everyone wants to win the title of Best Actor.

He wants to take it to the next level.

Who wouldn't want that?

at this time.

The industry has also gradually begun to stir up some waves.

It's probably about the upcoming awards. Although everyone in the Beijing entertainment circle hopes that these awards will go to their own artists, the authority of something often depends on its fairness, regardless of the industry.

This is one of the few places that is not affected by various powers and influences.

That's true, at least for now.

In this situation where one desires power but is powerless to change it, one cannot act arbitrarily. However, it is precisely because of this that he is able to maintain his authority.

Wang Jinghua also attaches great importance to this.

The Magnolia Awards and the Golden Eagle Awards are held very close together.

It was almost a continuous awards ceremony, with a few celebrities walking around like a tiger, looking powerful and majestic.

The person walking there seemed to have more of a sense of accomplishment than the person receiving the award.

Tang Min also had a pre-arranged party, and she sent quite a few of her own people to generate buzz. This is the advantage of idol-type carpet stars. The new generation surpasses the old, but I will neither be the old nor the new.

I'll be like that attached barnacle.

So what should we do?

This is also a principle of survival and continuation.

I may not be the main character, but I will never lose this stage.

"I heard you're going to attend the Magnolia Awards and the Golden Eagle Awards this year," Tang Min asked Wang Jinghua, who was standing next to her.

"This year's Magnolia Awards and Golden Eagle Awards will add two new categories."

Which two units?

"Best Foreign Language Film"

In the film industry, the Best Foreign Language Film category has always existed, but in the field of television dramas, the Magnolia Awards and the Golden Eagle Awards have never had this category.

This is a newly added unit.

Tang Min was somewhat surprised by this. She opened her mouth, but then fell silent without saying anything.

Best foreign language film.

They put foreign works into domestic awards.

Is this to lure in a catfish?

Or perhaps they have other motives.

Who knows?

But at least at this moment, Tang Min knew about this one thing: the new era that the section on the introduction of foreign films had ushered in.

Just like the Golden Eagle Goddess back then.

The first time is always very significant, especially the first time for a foreign language unit.

"It seems the higher-ups really want to completely lift the restrictions on foreign films and let them in for a brutal hunt," Tang Min sighed.

Aren't you worried?

"I'm just feeling a bit wistful rather than worried. After all, the path our circle takes is something they don't even look down on, so it won't affect our survival for the time being." Tang Min said with a touch of self-deprecation. She hadn't expected that because her circle was a marginal entity, it would be left with the least impact in this first transformation.

The rising tide of the ocean.

They couldn't move the barnacles. Perhaps they didn't even care about their existence.

Barnacles are just barnacles after all.

At this moment.

As the main contributor to all of this, Liu Lili is currently at home, feeling rather uninterested.

Surrounded by clinking glasses, toasts, and neon lights, she showed no interest whatsoever, even though she had done something truly beneficial to her career.

But now she can only hold the wine glass by herself.

"Miss Liu, why don't you join me for a drink?" Wang Chen smiled slightly from the side.

"No need, I prefer drinking alone."

"You're a major contributor this time; you've completely driven the increase in the number of award categories." Wang Chen's eyes revealed sincerity, and Liu Lili had indeed made a great contribution.

His contributions were immense.

He has strong connections not only in Hollywood, but also domestically.

No wonder her daughter was chosen as the Golden Eagle Goddess.

She acted like a "lobbyist," persuading the organizers of the Golden Eagle Awards to add this category, and also persuading the Magnolia Awards to add this category.

Like movies, it aligns with international standards.

To truly open one's eyes to the world.

"It's alright, I'm just not feeling well today, so I'll take my leave now."

Liu Lili smiled slightly, offered a few toasts, and then left the banquet.

Wang Chen didn't have much to say. Anyway, the matter was already done, so let things take their course.

The biggest significance of this is that it gives more people the opportunity to learn about imported works.

Next.

Whether it's the film industry or the television industry, imported content dominates.

Art is a very abstract thing.

Every country has developed its own art forms and unique landscapes.

China's splendid five-thousand-year civilization also has its own laws of artistic development, forms of audiovisual expression, and directions of artistic expression.

The weight of history is unparalleled.

This is Liu Lili's evaluation of domestic art; she loves it very much.

Liu Lili knew that many people considered her a fake foreigner who blindly worshipped foreign things and held a mindless attitude of admiring all Western art forms.

But in reality, to a large extent.

It was to prevent the demise of domestic art.

Civilizations are always strong and tend to annex the weak.

The same is true for art. Today's mainstream film and television, the Western world has been developing for more than a hundred years. In these hundred years, Western art forms have grown and expanded infinitely.

Art knows no borders.

Survival of the fittest.

If they wanted to avoid fading away with time, they could only develop their own artistic path in the Western world, which is now called the New Chinese Style.

Although there is always the possibility of squeezing out domestic survival.

That's how the world works: survival of the fittest. If we want to survive, if we want domestic art to survive, if we want traditional Chinese styles to survive, then let the West take the lead.

This must have been Liu Lili's original intention.

One way to ensure the survival of art in China.

She has accomplished so much, but now that she has reached this point, she is not as happy as she had imagined.

I wasn't that excited.

There was something strangely sullen about him.

"The Golden Eagle Award! My Diao Chan was nominated for Best Actress, Mom!"

Liu Qianqian's excited announcement broke Liu Lili's thoughts.

She was already wearing light makeup and seemed ready to go out.

What day is it today?

Oh, the days after filming wrapped on "The Hidden Corner".

So, it's quite obvious who she's going to see, given her light makeup; Liu Lili knows perfectly well.

A fish.

A fish struggling.

His own daughter seems to be struggling with it as well.

"That's great, congratulations! Your mother is truly happy for you." Liu Lili smiled slightly, with a hint of appreciation in her expression.

She wasn't nominated for the Golden Eagle Goddess title, nor was she given that position by arrangement; she truly earned her nomination based on her own merit.

This is truly a huge step forward in the journey of life.

Liu Qianqian said, blushing slightly.

"Mom, tonight."

"I have to go out tonight," Liu Lili interrupted her daughter, announcing that she wouldn't be home that night. "You can't stay out overnight, or there might be a big bad wolf."

"Okay, Mom," Liu Qianqian said, blushing slightly, unable to hide her true feelings.

Before she left in her white dress, she poked her head back into the doorway and said, "Don't worry, I'll definitely be back tonight!"

I promise!

Liu Lili impatiently shooed her daughter away.

But there was also a sense of desolation in his eyes.

My daughter will eventually grow up, and she has chosen the path she wants to take, even though from every angle, this path seems like a dead end.

After learning about her daughter.

The road they were on was a narrow dead end.

She couldn't help but feel sad, knowing full well that the path she was fighting for was one of certain death. Of course, her own daughter was alright, but Li Yun from Li Circle was the one who would never turn back once she left.

For this talented young man,

Based on her observation of Li Yun's attitude, she probably concluded that he was a talented young man.

However, they went astray.

They've even reached the point where they can now organize themselves into a community.

Isn't this shocking?

This is simply astounding! It's astounding that someone could reach such heights through pure talent alone; it's impossible not to admire them.

This is both admirable and tragic.

She even felt a little sorry that Li Yun was born in the wrong era. If Li Yun had been born earlier, or even in the era when Lü Haishi and others were active, it would have been better.

Maybe.

Perhaps the journey of the Beijing elite circle is now set in the vast universe, and perhaps they will truly be able to forge their own proud path without relying on Western culture.

Perhaps Liu Lili felt she would change her mind.

Didn't Charlie Chaplin single-handedly usher in a new era?

Unfortunately, time waits for no one; the wheels of time keep rolling forward, crushing everything in their path at top speed.

"This should be the last year for me to win Best Actor. Winning it now would still be considered quite prestigious. But in the coming years, with the influx of Western productions, people will pay less attention to domestic Best Actor winners and more to Western works. At that time, even if I win the award, all I'll get in the end will be sadness."

Perhaps this is the way things are developing.

Because of this tragedy, Liu Lili took pity on Li Yun and decided to let things end as they were.

At least this young woman, although she chose the wrong path, has earned Liu Lili's recognition for her excellence.

appreciate.

even.

A little bit, I like it.

It's completely different from the beginning, and now, I feel a bit regretful.
