After the awards ceremony, the final segment was a group sing-along.
Singers such as Han Hong, Sun Nan, Zhang Xinzhe, Zhang Jie, Zhang Liangying, and Jiang Chen all had to perform on stage.
The song they sang together was "My Motherland".
In China, such an important awards ceremony definitely calls for singing a song about the country.
And this kind of song is often performed as the grand finale.
In fact, by the end, no one wanted to stay at the opera house anymore.
However, because of the cameras, some celebrities dared not make any rash moves.
If someone leaves without permission while singing "My Motherland," it will definitely be sensationalized.
If the hype becomes popular, their reputation and future will be affected.
The situation is different for ordinary viewers.
They were just ordinary people.
Even if they are exposed, they will not be greatly affected.
Who would care about an ordinary person?
So almost all the audience members in the back rows left.
After singing "My Motherland," Jiang Chen stepped down from the stage and prepared to leave the opera house.
However, as soon as he stepped off the stage, he was surrounded by a crowd.
Many celebrities came forward to congratulate him on winning Best Screenplay, Best Director, and Best Film.
Yuan Hong: "Director Jiang, congratulations!"
Qin Lan: "You won five awards and received eight nominations for one film. You are the most dazzling presence tonight!"
Ni Dahong: "Before I met you, I never would have believed that you were such an amazing young man!"
Chen Daoming: "That brat Xu Zheng won another Best Actor award because of you! I'm so envious!"
Shen Teng: "If only I could win Best Actor!"
After flattering him for so long, their real intention is probably to collaborate with him and win Best Actor and Best Actress awards, right?
Jiang Chen: "You will all have a chance."
Deng Cao: "Without the help of a benefactor, how could it be so easy?"
Jiang Chen: "You know so many big directors, yet you still can't find a benefactor?"
Hu Ge: "Not every director can make excellent films; there are too many constraints on them."
Jiang Chen: "For example..."
Sun Honglei: "For example, a good script, superb post-production technology, outstanding acting skills, reasonable arrangement, unique scene setting, and the rendering of various emotions, music, atmosphere, and colors..."
Jiang Chen: "No one is perfect. It's normal that they don't know so many things."
Huang Bo: "But you can do it."
Jiang Chen: "Me? You think too highly of me!"
Feng Shaofeng: "We are not flattering you; you do have the ability."
Zhao Liying: "Didn't you just say on stage that you were the one who did all the work on 'Dying to Survive' from beginning to end?"
Jiang Chen: "I was just saying that offhand, don't take it seriously."
Zhang Ziyi: "You have neither background nor power, but I believe you started from scratch."
"If you're starting from scratch, you can only rely on yourself."
Jiang Chen: "Why don't you believe me?"
Qin Lan: "We only believe in our own judgment and the facts we see with our own eyes."
Jiang Chen: "You guys don't actually want to cooperate with me, do you?"
Zhang Songwen: "It is an honor for us to work with Director Jiang."
Jiang Chen: "Damn, you should have said so earlier! Why go through all this trouble?"
Zhang Yi: "I'm a little embarrassed to say it directly."
Jiang Chen: "It's just a collaboration, what's there to be embarrassed about?"
Wu Jing: "As a celebrity, face is the most important thing."
Li Qin: "Nobody wants to lower themselves to ask for help."
Jiang Chen: "Alright, I'll cooperate with you if the opportunity arises."
Zhou Dongyu: "Could I leave you my contact information?"
Jiang Chen: "Okay!"
The celebrities all took out their phones and added Jiang Chen on WeChat.
Bai Lu sat in her original spot, staring blankly at Jiang Chen, who was being fawned over by everyone.
At this moment, Jiang Chen was the most popular person in the entire venue.
All artists recognize him.
His status in the industry rose rapidly.
He is already comparable to renowned directors such as Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, and Chen Kaige.
"It hasn't been that long!"
"No artist can do that within a year."
"The choice we made back then was absolutely right."
"Fortunately, I gave myself to Jiang Chen without hesitation, otherwise I would never be able to be Jiang Chen's legal wife today."
Jing Tian, Guan Xiaotong, Tang Yan, and Liu Shishi also felt that Jiang Chen was very popular.
Tonight, we'll really make our name known.
At least most people in the industry know him.
"It shouldn't be difficult for him to find actors in the future."
"There's no need to humble yourself and beg for help."
"Once the script is finished, we can find suitable actors at will."
Yang Mi and Liu Yifei realized that they, as top actresses, were utterly insignificant in front of Jiang Chen.
In the industry, their status is no longer as high as Jiang Chen's.
Although she still has more fans than Jiang Chen.
However, given time, Jiang Chen's fan base will surely surpass theirs.
Therefore, they have nothing to be proud of.
I should lower my pride and start dating Jiang Chen.
Only in this way can you get everything you want.
Directors Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige, Xu Ke, Chen Kexin, and Wang Jiawei, who were about to leave the stage, glanced back at Jiang Chen in the audience and sighed at how fast times were changing.
They are no longer a popular group.
Jiang Chen is the one everyone tries to curry favor with.
"With his own media company and the ability to produce movies and TV series using his own technology, it would be difficult for him not to succeed."
"In addition, he can also write and sing songs, and he can make a lot of money from music."
"Such an outstanding entertainment genius is a once-in-a-millennium talent."
