The day after the Union Independence Day is the closing ceremony of the month-long film festival.
All awards were announced today.
In the huge mechanical oval steel building, holographic projections are shown on a large screen in the air.
The film's scenes of the abandoned storage area are particularly shocking, with dilapidated and abandoned buildings and darkness as far as the eye can see.
Filming in such an environment is extremely difficult.
The stacked scrap iron plates were covered with rust, and the two people facing each other were performing a wonderful rivalry.
The closing ceremony was packed.
Rows of small projection screens were spread throughout the venue, and at a glance, all they could see were movies being played.
In the center of the circular building, there is a giant main screen with a virtual curtain hanging.
This is the main podium for the closing ceremony.
"Today is the last day of the film festival. The box office figures for all the participating films have been released. Next, we will announce all the awards for this film festival one by one!"
"The first award to be announced is the Best Film Award!"
"Then let's interview the audience here. What do you think is the best movie?"
The host began to look for lucky audience members on the scene.
Many of the audience in the front row were fans of Zhao Cunzhi. They shouted in unison: "Dark"
"It seems like 'Dark' is very popular," the host, who was very good at creating a good atmosphere, began to look for Zhao Cunzhi in the audience: "Then let's interview Mr. Zhao!"
The director switched the main screen to Zhao Cunzhi on the field.
"ah!!!"
The Asian lion on the big screen, Zhao Cunzhi's outline is more graceful in the high-definition lens, and the close-up lens makes the fans scream even louder.
It's simply a warm-up artifact.
Zhao Cunzhi took the microphone handed to him by the staff and answered the host's question: "The quality of the nominated films is very high, but I am more confident in "Dark"."
The holographic projection on the mechanical large screen flashes the names of many shortlisted films.
During the countdown, viewers watching the closing ceremony live kept sending comments:
[Dark! Dark! It must be dark!]
"Let's congratulate the movie 'Dark'!"
"Please invite Teacher Zhu to present the awards for the film..."
In the following award ceremonies, the name of "Dark" kept appearing, and it almost monopolized the major awards from Best Director to Best Lighting Design.
There was constant applause in the circular building.
"The next award we're going to announce is the Best Newcomer Award! Let's interview a few directors here and tell us about their top picks!"
"Director Fang, who do you think is the best newcomer on the big screen?"
Director Fang is a highly respected veteran director and one of the film festival judges. "I voted for the new actor Bu Qingren. I saw his performance and it was outstanding!"
The next few directors interviewed mentioned Bu Qingren, in addition to the names of the newcomers in their films.
Highlights from the nominees' films continue to play on the main screen.
The host specifically said: "Then let's randomly interview the seniors present and ask them what they think!"
The director immediately cut the camera to Zhao Cunzhi.
The fans' cheers were deafening.
[Is this random?]
"Who does Mr. Zhao think should win the Best Newcomer award?"
"Of course it's the new actor sitting next to me."
The camera switched to a two-person frame, with Bu Qingren sitting next to him with a smile in his eyes, and the light made his pupils brighter.
The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her amazing appearance made fans take screenshots continuously.
The rose brooch on her chest sparkled.
The two matching figures sitting together on the same large screen greatly satisfied the CP fans.
"Then let's invite Director Fang and Director Davy to the stage to announce this year's Best Newcomer Award! Please come on stage!"
Director Davy helped the elderly Director Fang to stand on the stage.
Everyone agreed on the winner of this award. Director Davy was very happy to present the award to Xiaobu and clicked on the list of winners on the electronic screen in his hand.
His face changed.
Director Fang's face also looked a little ugly. As one of the judges, he was sure that the winner of this award could not be the current actor - Yang He.
This actor's short film performed at the bottom of the list this time, and the low-budget production was not even invited to the opening ceremony of the film festival.
All actors from the participating works were invited to the closing ceremony, but it was just a formality.
Everyone knows it's a shady deal.
"Please invite the two directors to announce the list of winners!"
The host also noticed the silence of the two directors and had to remind them.
Davy was so angry that he couldn't control his expression and almost started cursing on the stage.
Director Fang took over the position and slowly began his conversation, "The winner of the Best Newcomer Award at the 27th Interstellar Film Festival is Yang He."
The scene fell silent almost instantly, and everyone suspected they had heard it wrong.
The director's camera didn't move away from Bu Qingren's face. The name of the winner on the big screen was Yang He, but the person who appeared was Bu Qingren.
The audience below was in an uproar.
The host who reacted could only start to control the situation.
"Thank you to both directors for allowing us to have new actor Yang He come on stage to receive the award!"
Bu Qingren looked at Yang He who stood up and walked to the front stage. In the original novel, Yang He participated in "Dark" and also won the Best Newcomer Award, which was also awarded to him by Director Davy and Director Fang.
His heart sank!
The main plot cannot be changed.
The forced smile on Director Fang's face was a little awkward. Davy had a completely sour face. He simply shook hands and turned to leave the stage.
Yang He was giving his acceptance speech on the stage.
Bu Qingren sat in the audience, not knowing what he was thinking.
