The odds had just opened, and no one had chosen the triple kill and the smaller options in front.
In addition to the Best Visual Effects award that Wei Lan himself won, Wei Lan has also been mentioned in the Best Makeup and Costume Design and Best Supporting Actor awards.
There are a total of six film nominations related to Wei Lan this time. The more important the award, the greater the suspense. So when the voting started, there were all kinds of speculations. However, whether it was the lowest quadruple or the highest grand slam six, the voting rate was not particularly high. The highest was still the pentagram in the middle.
The next two awards were Best Original Score and Best Original Screenplay. Unfortunately, Wei Lan's film was not nominated this time.
Many fans felt it was a pity that "Soul Pandemic" did not win the Best Original Screenplay award, especially because when a movie is submitted to the Golden Tripod Awards, the judges will only watch a movie once during the screening. Fans believe that if the judges also watch the movie twice or three times like them and discover the hidden plot, their evaluation of the movie's script will definitely improve.
After the nominations for Best Screenplay came out, many film and television media took stock of the films that unfortunately missed the award, and "Mind" ranked first.
After two important awards, it was time for one of the final core awards - the Best Actress Award.
For fans and media in the entertainment industry, the Golden Tripod Awards are largely held to see who will be the best actor and actress of the year.
"The actresses nominated for the Golden Tripod Award for Best Actress this time are... Xia Senli from "Ran" and Zhou Youqing from "Ninety-nine Love Letters"..."
As the host read out each name, each nominee's work appeared on a large screen at the back of the theater.
"The Queen, Qin An."
The big screen at the back showed the crying scene in the second half of "The Queen" where Moran told Lu Wei that she was divorced. She looked pale and tired, and it stopped abruptly at the end, returning to her usual indifference.
"Chu Mo, "Spiritual Epidemic"
Chu Mo's performance of switching between two personalities instantly transformed him from one person into another. Although his makeup and clothes did not change, it seemed as if there were really two identical people.
The live camera flashed past the crew of "Ninety-nine Love Letters" and the producer's face looked a little gloomy.
How could it not be gloomy? Not only was it squeezed out of the box office by "Soul", but it was also squeezed out by two consecutive films by Wei Lan in terms of awards!
This is also what confuses the senior executives of Chengguang. Wei Lan went to make commercial films, so why did she still get two Best Actress nominations? Was this just God's way of forcing her to eat?
Many people in the film production industry watched the competition for Best Actress this year and began to grumble: Chengguang urgently needed a Best Actress and put a lot of resources into this position this year, but he didn't expect to run into Wei again, and Wei had two nominations for Best Actress this time...
Zhou Youqing is indeed a very outstanding young actress. Her acting skills and appearance are excellent among actresses of the same age, but Chu Mo is a talented actress at the same level as her. She is not inferior to her at all, and is even better than her. Qin An is even more so. She is the ceiling of acting skills for actresses in the circle. She has won the Best Actress award twice. She can be nominated for any commercial film that subverts her image.
Chengguang, this time, can only say that it is fate...
The industry insider information is far away from the audience watching the live broadcast. What they are paying attention to at this time is the market quotation on Weibo:
"Is this a guaranteed quad kill?"
"Indeed, for others it's a one in four chance of winning, but for Director Wei it's a one in two chance!"
"Don't be so mean, I bet ten coins on Station D!"
The award presenter took the envelope and slowly unfolded it. After seeing the name on it, a look of surprise appeared on his face. The live camera was split onto the four nominees. All four actors had smiles on their faces and looked very calm.
However, except Qin An who was truly calm, the slightly fading smiles of the other three actresses still revealed their nervousness.
"The actress who won the Best Actress award this year is... Chu Mo from "Soul Epidemic"!"
"Congratulations Chu Mo!"
The uplifting music suddenly sounded, Chu Mo stood up from his seat in surprise, hugged his friend next to him, and then walked onto the stage.
Qin An smiled gently, and the other two winners also applauded with smiles, but they could not hide the sadness on their faces, especially Zhou Youqing. Among the new generation of female stars of the same age, Chu Mo, who is both beautiful and has good acting skills, is her biggest competitor. The two of them have always been mentioned at the same time in media comments, but now the opponent has won the award first.
The producer next to her also looked unhappy, which made her even more depressed. After this failure, it would be difficult to get the best resources from Chengguang. This made her doubt whether her decision to sign with Chengguang was right or wrong...
At this time, Chu Mo was already giving a speech on the stage. This proud and talented girl was so excited that her eyes were red. "To be able to win this award... Of course, I also have to thank our Director Wei. She is really the director who has the best tacit cooperation with me so far..."
'Thank you Director Wei x3'
'Quadruple kill completed'
'As a fan of Director Wei, I bet ten coins on the quad kill. Either I earn coins with tears in my eyes, or I lose coins with joy! '
'Next time, I will thank Director Wei first.'
Just when it was confirmed that Chu Mo had won the award, countless pre-written press releases were released. Before such an award ceremony, the media usually prepare several press releases, and then they will choose one to release first based on who wins the award, in order to quickly earn traffic.
Even though there have been younger winners of the Best Actress award in film history, it is still big news that Chu Mo can win the award at this age. It has been more than ten years since such a young actress appeared.
Especially since Chu Mo participated in the work of Wei Lan, the youngest best director in history, and won the award. The media called their cooperation a "collision of geniuses", "a powerful alliance", and "the leader of the new generation of filmmakers". At a time when Chu Mo should have been praised, Wei Lan was inexplicably brought up.
No matter how lively the Internet is, the award ceremony in the theater is still going on.
"The winner of this year's Best Actor is... Ye Jingran from "The Lonely Island"."
As the presenter announced the Best Actor, there was a subtle silence in the theater, and then applause broke out again.
Ye Jingran, who won the Best Actor award, looked to be in his thirties or forties. He had a handsome appearance with a sense of vicissitudes and a restrained temperament. He adjusted his cuffs, hugged his crew friend next to him, and walked onto the stage.
His expression was always calm, and only his slightly trembling hands when he received the trophy revealed his unrest at the moment.
With the appearance of this actor, the comments in the barrage went wild:
"Why is it him? Can a bad artist still win an award?"
"Don't talk nonsense about what happened before. We didn't win the case! We didn't win the case! There was no evidence at all."
'After that incident, Ye Jingran was able to make a movie and win an award. I heard that he has a strong background. It seems to be true, otherwise Princess Chengguang wouldn't have fallen in love back then...'
'Have you really watched "The Lonely Island"? Is there anything dark about Ye Jingran's performance in it?'
Wei Lan, who was watching the live broadcast at this time, raised her eyebrows. She had been in this world for nearly two years and had experienced three movie castings. She had basically seen most of the male and female actors who were active in the entertainment industry in the past two years, but she had never seen this actor named Ye Jingran. In the movie clip that just played, his performance amazed Wei Lan.
And for some reason, this actor named Ye Jingran made her feel inexplicably familiar.
Soon it was time for the next award.
"The winner of this year's Golden Tripod Award for Best Editing is... The Queen."
The familiar rhythm of pop music sounded.
Classic scenes from "The Queen" appeared on the big screen. Lu Wei went to the company wearing different costumes, changing her look in every link, which was a feast for the eyes.
Even though this movie does not have a high score on Guangying.com, its sharp editing techniques are still demonstration material in film schools. Many new urban-themed film and television works from the second half of last year to this year, which show the fast-paced urban life, have learned this editing method to a certain extent, which shows its influence.
Even though Wei Lan has won many awards, this award is still very convincing.
"…The winner of the Best Editing Award is Wei Lan from The Queen!"
The panda head finally appeared on the big screen again to give a speech. This time, Wei Lan also made a joke that seemed real:
"You didn't get this award last year. Didn't expect it? I'm back again this year, and I finally filled in the cloze test..."
"Hahaha..." Not only did the audience burst into laughter and applause, but many viewers who were watching the live broadcast also laughed out loud, and the comments were naturally lively:
'It's started. It's started.'
"Don't ask. I'm asking just to make up for last year's regrets."
'She admitted it! She was doing the cloze test!'
"Fortunately, I finally got it this time. I want to thank my parents and my actors here..."
After Wei Lan gave a brief acceptance speech, the online speculation about how many awards Wei Lan would win became lively again.
Fans said: Pentakill is good enough, but if there is more, we can also lose coins.
The last nomination for Wei Lan is for Best Picture, but Best Picture has always been a major award, and Wei Lan has already won it once last year, so the chance of winning is relatively small, and it is not among the "regrets" in the cloze test. It would be best if she could win it, but she wouldn't be too disappointed if she didn't.
At the same time, even though the final result has not been announced yet, netizens who play moba online games have already started to make a fuss.
Netizens used the panda in Wei Lan's avatar to create an emoticon package: "Repost this Wei Lan, you can also get a pentakill."
This magical expression instantly spread across major social platforms that night.
And when this year's best film was announced, the emoticon package was updated again.
"I declare that the film that won the Golden Tripod Award for Best Picture this year is..."
"Psychic Epidemic!"
Wei Mingjie stood up from his chair in surprise, and the entire "Soul" crew was filled with joy.
'Oh my god! I'm not at a loss even if I lose my coin!'
'After so many years, the Golden Tripod Awards finally let a thriller or suspense film win the Best Picture award! '
The fact that "Mind" won the award is not only a celebration for Wei Lan's fans, but also a celebration for fans of horror and suspense movies.
When handing over the small golden tripod, the president of this year's guest producer association said to Wei Mingjie: "The production of this film has opened up a new model for suspense films and it deserves the title."
Wei Mingjie picked up the golden tripod with a smile on his face and stood in front of the microphone: "Here, I would like to thank..."
During the live broadcast, countless comments such as "Thank you Director Wei first" were posted at the right time, and many nostalgic viewers also posted some comments such as "Thank you Director Chen".
Sure enough, Wei Mingjie, who had just secretly watched the live broadcast on his mobile phone, said at this time: "I have to thank Director Wei first...it's her hard work..."
"Hahaha……"
'Six kills!'
"I declare that Director Wei is a superstar this year!"
The previous emoticon package quickly changed: 'Repost this Wei Director, you can also get a pentakill (crossed out) six kills! '
Amidst laughter and joy, this year's Golden Tripod Awards came to a successful conclusion.
Only in tonight's game did some strange conversations occur.
"Player 'Ye Aonaiwohe' achieved a pentakill!"
(Friendly) I'm online: Director Wei!
(Friendly) Wants to collapse: Director Wei himself!
(Enemy) Young and Young: ? ? Director Wei is playing games?
What can I do to my arrogance? Thank you, Director Wei.
