Chapter 392 She Wants to Eat Your Fresh Meat
The red carpet of the Magnolia Awards Ceremony.
The Shanghai Oriental Art Center was surrounded by crowds of people, including fans and news media who came to join in the fun.
Unlike other less famous award ceremonies, the Magnolia Awards attracts a large number of industry celebrities.
As long as there is an award nomination, it is rare for a celebrity to not attend unless they have something really important to do.
After all, the Feitian Award places too much emphasis on subject matter, and the Golden Eagle Award has become more idol-oriented in recent years. The Magnolia Award is now basically the most recognized award in the domestic television drama industry.
Whether in terms of fame or credibility, it can be regarded as the highest honor in the domestic TV drama industry.
Moreover, the Magnolia Awards are held every two years, and each award ceremony will attract the attention of everyone inside and outside the circle. Many celebrities who are not nominated but invited will also actively attend the award ceremony, and walking the red carpet is also a considerable way to gain exposure.
The sky gradually darkened, but outside the Oriental Art Center it was as bright as day.
From the moment the first celebrity walked onto the red carpet, the flashes of various media outlets never stopped, and the fans outside the railings also burst into enthusiastic screams when their idols walked onto the red carpet.
More than half of the red carpet time had passed when all the crew members of "The Young Marshal" came over.
"The Young Marshal" was also one of the big winners at this year's awards ceremony. Like "Nirvana in Fire", it was nominated for 7 out of 8 awards, and was nominated for all but the Best Supporting Actor.
Director Zhang Li walked in front with the heroine Song Jia holding his arm, while screenwriters Zhang Qitao, Wen Zhang, teacher Li Xuejian, and Liu Yan walked side by side behind.
The director of this drama, Zhang Li, is very famous. He is an old generation of TV drama director who was admitted to Beijing Film Academy in the same year as Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Li Shaohong, Tian Zhuangzhuang and others.
During his more than 40 years of directing career, he has filmed many excellent TV series. The famous TV series "The Ming Dynasty 1566" is his work. He is known as one of the top ten directors in the industry.
However, he is as famous as his directing ability as his private life. Director Zhang, who is nearly 60 years old this year, has been divorced five times. In the past two years, while filming the TV series "The Young Marshal", he collaborated with actress Song Jia, and the two of them flew in the sky. He then divorced his ex-wife Liu Bei, who is also a famous actress.
It’s interesting to say that everyone from the crew of “Young Marshal” has been nominated, except for “Young Marshal”.
In fact, you can tell who the real protagonist of this TV series is by looking at the title. As a result, "Zhang Zuolin" played by Mr. Li Xuejian was nominated for Best Actor, while "Young Marshal" Wen Zhang got nothing.
In addition, Liu Yan was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her guest appearance as "Zhang Xueliang's cousin" in the TV series.
The group walked from the red carpet to the small stage in front of the signing board, posed for a few photos with the media, and then everyone went inside.
At this moment, thunderous shouts came from the direction of the red carpet outside. The fans' crazy enthusiasm seemed to set the Oriental Art Center on fire.
Liu Yan looked into the distance curiously, but the figure was shaking and not very clear.
"Who's coming here? What's the big deal?"
Wen Zhang, who was beside her, looked listless and squinted his eyes.
He and Liu Yan have known each other for quite some time. They first collaborated when they were filming "Detective Dee" with Li Lianjie.
"There are only a few people in the domestic entertainment industry who have this much popularity these past two years. Looking at the nominees for the Magnolia Awards today, it must be Gu Wei, from the Nirvana in Fire crew."
Every time Wen Zhang saw Gu Wei, he felt complicated.
It's not that he has any prejudice or bad impression of Gu Wei. Every time he sees Gu Wei, it's like seeing his past self, and he misses the good old days.
Of course, there is a degree of self-glorification here. Even during the period when he was at his most popular, it was still far inferior to Gu Wei's current popularity and achievements.
After all, his innate conditions are much worse than Gu Wei's. He is not a handsome guy and his fame is entirely supported by those TV dramas.
Liu Yan hesitated for a moment, then said to Director Zhang Li who was about to go in:
"Director Zhang, please go in first. I have something else to do."
Director Zhang glanced at her and nodded.
Song Jia, who was holding his arm, looked at Liu Yan strangely.
At this time, the main creative team of "Nirvana in Fire" was slowly walking towards them on the red carpet.
The group was led by Kong Sheng, Wang Kai and Liu Mintao, while Tang Yan walked behind with her arm around Gu Wei.
Entering today, [Noon Sunshine] was divided into two teams, except for the people from [Nirvana in Fire].
Director Li Xue brought Jin Dong, Liu Yijun and Wang Ou as the "Disguiser" team to enter the venue separately.
After all, there were too many nominees, and it would be inconvenient for everyone to work together for two plays, so we simply split into two teams.
Gu Wei smiled and followed the people in front of him as he walked forward, raising his hand to greet the fans around him.
He was accustomed to such occasions and handled them with ease.
In recent times, apart from joining the crew to film, Gu Wei has been busy dealing with company matters and has been less exposed to the public.
He came to attend the Magnolia Awards Ceremony today, and his fans were particularly enthusiastic to see him.
"Gu Wei, Gu Wei, look over here!!"
"Brother, I love you!"
"Gu Wei, you are the most handsome!!"
"Mei Changsu, Mei Changsu!!!"
“.”
There were all kinds of cheers and shouts at the scene, and reporters quickly pressed the shutter of their cameras, fearing that they would not be able to take suitable photos.
In a few minutes, the cast of Nirvana in Fire walked across the red carpet.
The two men standing nearby, dressed like reporters and with cameras hanging around their necks, lowered their heads and looked back at the photos they had just taken.
"How about it, is the angle you took a good picture from?"
"Not bad. Gu Wei's front and side views are all captured, as well as a photo with Tang Yan."
"These photos I took weren't very good. They're a little blurry and the angles aren't very good. Please send me two copies of your photos later."
"No problem, you'll treat me to a late-night snack after the ceremony~"
“It’s still Lao Wang BBQ”
After Gu Wei and his group entered, they happened to run into Liu Yan who was standing there waiting in the corridor outside.
She was wearing a black dress today. Although it was not a low-cut dress and only slightly exposed her shoulders, the tight fit showed off her sexy gourd-shaped figure.
With long wavy hair draped over her shoulders, a fair face and seductive red lips, she looks very charming.
She and Tang Yan, who is beside Gu Wei, have completely different paths.
Although both of them have the style of a mature woman, Tang Yan is a mature type, beautiful with a touch of cuteness and playfulness, while Liu Yanwan maximizes her own advantages and is charming and enchanting.
"Liu Yan, why are you standing here?
Why don’t you come in?”
When she walked over, Tang Yan saw her first. She was no stranger to Liu Yan, as they had worked together before.
When Gu Wei was recording Running Man, they were both guests together in the previous episode.
"I'm waiting here for Mr. Gu on purpose."
"Waiting for Gu Wei?"
Tang Yan turned around and looked at Gu Wei, whose arm she was still holding, with a puzzled look on her face.
Gu Wei gave her an innocent look, then turned to look at Liu Yan.
"What's up?"
Liu Yan straightened up and said gratefully.
"It's like this, Mr. Gu. I still want to thank you for helping me before. Later, I always wanted to invite you to dinner to express my gratitude, but you were busy with work and never had the time."
Gu Wei suddenly realized.
"It's not a big deal, no need to be so polite."
For Liu Yan, it was a matter of career prospects, but for Gu Wei, it was just a matter of saying something, and he had almost forgotten about it.
"Does that incident still affect you now?"
Gu Wei asked again curiously.
Liu Yan smiled bitterly and said:
“There is definitely an impact, after all, too many people have been offended.
After that incident, I couldn’t get any proper job and was ostracized by my colleagues at the company. Life is not easy now.”
Gu Wei touched his chin.
"Is that so?"
Then he looked at Liu Yan.
"I'll call Lao Wang later and ask him what's going on. Such an excellent host and actor in the company has no work, so I'm going to poach him."
After hearing what Gu Wei said, Liu Yan smiled happily and thanked him repeatedly.
With just a simple phone call from Gu Wei, most of her problems could be solved. At least in the company, Bao Beier, the boss, would not be able to suppress her.
To outsiders, Gu Wei became her backer.
According to the current size of [Wei Ming Tian Xia] and its cooperative relationship with [Guangguang Media], President Wang will have to look upon her with more respect in the future, and perhaps she will have better development in the company in the future.
"Mr. Gu, I know you're very busy filming right now. Please give me a chance to thank you when you have time. If it weren't for your help this time, I really can't imagine what my future career would be like."
"You're so kind, it's just a piece of cake for me.
Okay, let’s not stand here and talk anymore. It’s not good for people behind us to see us. Let’s go in.”
Gu Wei greeted them, and the three of them walked into the award ceremony venue together.
After separating from Liu Yan, Tang Yan, who was beside her, looked around to see if anyone was paying attention, and quietly pinched Gu Wei.
"Hey, Sister Tangtang, why are you pinching me?"
Gu Wei exclaimed softly and looked at her in confusion.
“Hmph~
Are you attracted to Liu Yan?"
As she spoke, she stretched out her hands and made a semicircle motion forward in front of her ordinary chest.
Gu Wei smiled bitterly.
"What does this have to do with anything? I was just doing her a small favor.
Didn’t you see the news two months ago about Bao Beier making trouble for the bride at her wedding?
After that, she was constantly suppressed by the groomsmen and, of course, the groom.
You just heard her say that her career is not going well right now.
It was just a simple favor for me to make a phone call for her, so how can that be considered as falling in love with her?"
“Hehe~
You think it's just a small favor, but to her it's a huge favor."
Tang Yan sneered twice and lowered her voice.
"How can a female star like her express gratitude to you? I'm afraid she'll end up expressing her gratitude to you to the point of going to bed with you.
Even if this hadn't happened, I think she would have been eager for it, and now she has this opportunity to fulfill her wish."
"Okay, Sister Tangtang, stop imagining things. Director Kong and the others are still waiting for us."
Gu Wei had nothing to say and had to change the subject.
"Liu Yan is the same. She is older than me, so why does she want to eat a young man like you? Forget it, I am not related to you, so I can't control you so much."
Tang Yan followed Gu Wei forward, but she was still muttering unwillingly.
