Chapter 508 Special Contribution Award

[Riding a pig on the highway: They're insane! To film a TV series, they memorized all the poems from the Tang Dynasty. Xian Ge and Xu Bao are too dedicated!]

[I know you, you know me: No wonder Xu Bao won Best Actress. I knew that refined, scholarly air couldn't be cultivated in an ordinary family. I never expected her to work so hard!]

[Sitting on a grave teasing ghosts: Isn't Brother Xian the most hardworking one? Even with such a busy schedule, he still memorized all the poems from the Tang Dynasty. I knew this drama's success wouldn't be a simple matter!]

[Except for Dao: Some of you top influencers, come out and compete! Didn't you want to compete with Brother Xian? Didn't you want to show off how great you are? Based on this alone, you'll never be able to hold your heads up in front of Brother Xian for the rest of your lives!]

……

Many renowned directors stood up excitedly.

Such an actor is amazing!

Just now, Jiang Tian and Liu Xiaoxiao talked about writing character biographies, and no one took it seriously. After all, writing biographies is just basic stuff for successful movie stars, TV stars, and veteran actors. Some even go through the process of getting certified or experiencing life in the industry for a few months. There's nothing to be surprised about.

However, to play a role well, one must memorize all the poems of the Tang Dynasty thoroughly, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

In addition to having extremely strong learning and memory abilities, one also needs great perseverance.

Many people thought that Chen Xu got the Best Actress award by taking advantage of Liu Xiaoxiao, since Liu Xiaoxiao's experience and acting skills both met the standards for winning the award.

This time, the dual female lead format of "Dream of the Red Chamber" has led many to believe that the Golden Lotus Award committee is having a very difficult time deciding how to award the Best Actress award.

Now, after hearing what Lin Daiyu said, everyone understood that the double-yolk eggs that the organizing committee presented this time were not given out casually, nor were they intended to create a gimmick.

"In fact, it wasn't just me. All the actors who participated in 'Dream of the Red Chamber', including Sister Xiaoxiao, Sister Tian, ​​Li Hong, Li Xin, Duan Fei, etc., had this requirement. It's just that Brother Xian and I were the first to do it."

It's like how singers selected by Qiuye Yanxuan have to sing "Tante" well if they want to get a song written by Xian Ge.

The difference lies in who can meet the requirements first.

After we memorized the poems, Brother Xian often led us in playing the "Flying Flower Order" game, which completely immersed us in the play "Dream of the Red Chamber" and made us become true ladies from ancient noble families. Many fans who watched the live stream knew this.

So, what I want to say is that this drama made me who I am, but more importantly, it instilled in me the right values: if you want something, you have to put in 200% effort! Thanks again, Brother Xian!

……

Chen Xu's speech won several minutes of enthusiastic applause from all the audience members present, and fans in the live broadcast room also gave her thumbs up.

[The little girl buying cucumbers: To get something, you have to put in 200% effort! This sounds like the motivational pep talk my boss gives us, but the thing is, Xu Bao's motivational pep talk is the essence of Xian Ge's! The motivational pep talk I get, I have to pay for it myself!]

[Heartbreaking Girl: The atmosphere at Qiuye Yanxuan is just too good! It's the most studious MCN agency I've ever seen, even better than many listed companies. Is Brother Xian going to start an influencer university next?]

[Daily Life: Chen Xu's remarks, seemingly expressing gratitude to everyone and Brother Xian, actually had a hidden agenda. She was proving to everyone that her Best Actress award didn't fall from the sky, but was earned step by step.]

[Jiao: What's wrong with having little thoughts? I think it's perfectly normal. Your hard work will only be valuable when you become a TV Queen! When you're just an extra, your efforts only deserve a boxed lunch!]

……

That night, the person the "Dream of the Red Chamber" crew thanked the most was Ye Xian. Ye Xian frequently stood up to greet the award-winning colleagues on stage.

Many bigwigs turned to look at Ye Xian, and the live stream camera frequently panned across him, making many people remember this young man who, at only 21 years old, had created such an excellent TV series.

Chen Xu and Liu Xiaoxiao sang a duet of "The First Dream" before leaving the stage.

After stepping down from the stage, Chen Xu and Liu Xiaoxiao gave Ye Xian a big hug, and both women were almost moved to tears.

From that moment on, both women firmly established themselves as top-tier actresses, becoming part of the elite at the very top.

Ye Xian was genuinely happy for them, because this was something they had earned through their own hard work.

……

With the Best Actress award ceremony over, the competition for Best Actor is next.

Liu Xinxin, sitting in the front row, straightened her back and glanced at Ye Xian almost imperceptibly, looking confident of victory.

Ye Xian straightened up slightly to show respect to the organizers, but he didn't care at all.

The award presenter was last year's Best Actor winner, Luo Yin. He looked at the audience and laughed, "This year's Best Actor competition is really something else. There are so many rising stars. It makes this old guy feel a little uneasy."

Everyone smiled knowingly.

Indeed, among the five nominees for Best Actor this year, Ye Xian is only 21 years old, making him the youngest nominee in the history of the Golden Lotus Award. In addition, Liu Xinxin is only 28 years old. Such a young combination is indeed rare.

Luo Yin didn't waste any more words. He opened the envelope, paused for a moment, and then read aloud: "The winner of this year's Golden Lotus Award for Best Actor is Li Yi, for 'Reminiscence'!"

Liu Xinxin's confident smile froze instantly, while Ye Xian laughed, as this was exactly what he had expected.

Having already won the Best Screenplay and Best Actress awards, how could they possibly give out the Best Actor award? Ye Xian was absolutely certain that the next Best TV Series award would definitely not be "Dream of the Red Chamber."

Sure enough, just a few minutes later, the Best Drama award also went to "Reminiscence".

Three major dramas shared several of this year's Golden Lotus Awards, demonstrating the organizing committee's skillful balancing act.

Ye Xian was not disappointed, because this was within his expectations.

Although Director Jia had some regrets, winning four awards made "Dream of the Red Chamber" the biggest winner of the night, and it would be a bit unsatisfying to be greedy for more.

Liu Xinxin, who was full of confidence, was disappointed. The fact that "The Mansion" only won the Best Director award was really beyond his expectations.

The viewers in the live stream, especially those who enjoyed late-night snacks, were somewhat disappointed, but they were also quite satisfied. After all, the Golden Lotus Award couldn't possibly shower a single work like "Dream of the Red Chamber" with awards.

Just when everyone thought the awards ceremony was over, Mr. Bu Guang, the chief judge of the Golden Lotus Award, walked onto the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in addition to all the awards presented today, there is also an extra Special Contribution Award!"

This extra award, which wasn't on the list of awards, immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Bu Guang didn't keep him in suspense. Instead, he took out an envelope and read aloud: "Winner of the Golden Lotus Award for Special Contribution, Ye Xian, 'Dream of the Red Chamber'."
