Chapter 169 Won the Award Again



Acceptance speeches are just a formality.

It is important, but you don’t have to worry too much about the form.

It doesn't matter if you say it well or brilliantly, but just say it appropriately.

At least that's what Lu Yuan thought.

Lu Yuan was very satisfied.

Compared to before, he felt that he had made significant progress.

When Lu Yuan first attended the Venice awards ceremony, he was like a fool and was a little nervous, but after coming to the stage of the Spanish awards ceremony this time, Lu Yuan obviously felt that he was not nervous anymore.

After winning the Best Photography Award, Lu Yuan found himself very calm, and his acceptance speech was as smooth as flowing water.

He received the award, gave his speech, bowed, and walked off the stage with a smile on his face.

Everything seemed so leisurely and comfortable.

Applause broke out, but unfortunately all the applauding audience had looks of surprise in their eyes.

If they didn't listen carefully, they even felt that the content of the two acceptance speeches was exactly the same.

You might be able to feel the sincerity the first time, but when you listen to it the second time, everyone suddenly feels a little awkward.

The host coughed lightly, took back the microphone and continued to host the show humorously, speaking Spanish which Lu Yuan could not understand.

At the bottom of the stage.

"I won two awards. It was really worth the trip." Lu Yuan held a trophy in each hand with a satisfied smile on his face.

He had never expected to win the award before, but he won it this time, which has to be said to be a miracle.

Of course, the only thing that made Lu Yuan feel regretful was that there was not much prize money. He just gave out trophies and some bonuses as a token of his appreciation.

"Well, Lu Yuan, you are already quite good. If you can win another award, you will break the record of Hua Xia's awards in Spain in recent years..."

"Break the record? Is it that easy?"

"Easy? For ten years, every year there have been Chinese directors participating in the Goya Awards. The only director who won the most awards was Director Li You in 1998, who won two awards for Autumn Mountain. This is already a record. Do you still think it's easy?"

"What about the others?"

"The others are basically just runners-up. They have been traveling with runners-up for several years and have gained nothing... Do you think the Spanish Goya Award is as easy to get as cabbage on the street?" Wang Jinxue rolled her eyes at Lu Yuan and shook her head.

He sighed again when he thought of Li You's experience.

The road for Chinese films to win awards in the West is very bumpy.

In fact, Chinese films cannot be said to be bad, nor can they be said to be bad, it’s just that some of their expressions are difficult to accept in the eyes of these judges.

It doesn't fit their concept of awards.

"Autumn Mountain" is actually an art film, and it is art to the core. This kind of film does not have much of a market and is not even recognized by many people in China.

Li You was just a small director before he made Autumn Mountain. The box office of Autumn Mountain was also disappointing. With an investment of 3 million yuan and a box office of 3 million yuan, after all the expenses, it basically lost money, not to mention that it could not make any waves in the box office war. Many people advised Li You to find a way to make a commercial blockbuster or simply give up being a director. However, Li You stubbornly took this movie to participate in the Goya Awards alone, and surprisingly won two awards in a row...

After "Autumn Mountain" won the award, Li You returned to China and received the attention and praise of many mainstream media. "Autumn Mountain", which originally lost money, was also played in theaters for the second time. The second time was obviously different from the first time, and the box office did not flop. After that, Li You filmed the youth art film "Spring of That Year". Because of its fame in China and the high praise of the quality of the film itself, the box office of this film with an investment of 5 million yuan exceeded 50 million, which directly established the basic status of domestic directors. It can be said to be a rare miracle in the history of directors...

In fact, Wang Jinxue was quite impressed by the box office miracle of "That Spring" directed by Li You...

She always felt that it would be impossible for there to be another Li You in China.

Um……

This sigh continued until Wang Jinxue met Lu Yuan.

Well, after meeting Lu Yuan, Wang Jinxue discovered that Li You’s miracle was actually just that.

Although it was a miracle, at least Li You's operation was still acceptable within the human range. But Lu Yuan...

Is this guy still a human being?

Thinking of this, Wang Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan again.

In fact, in terms of winning the Goya Awards, Lu Yuan is on par with Li You.

Lu Yuan’s status among China’s future directors will definitely not be low!

"That's right, it's indeed not that easy to win an award." Lu Yuan nodded and looked at the stage.

He doesn't care whether he wins the award or not, and he doesn't really care about the title.

He is quite calm.

"Don't say that. Well, actually, even if you don't win any awards in the future, it will be enough for you to be proud of yourself. When you return to China, you will know how glorious you will be..."

"this……"

The award ceremony continued, but it was slightly relaxed.

The host's voice began to slow down, no longer speaking at the same cannon-like speed as before.

Of course, Lu Yuan still couldn't understand it.

During the event, several international celebrities performed a beautiful song on the stage. After the performance, the host took out a card and announced the third award of the night...

The familiar backstage screen was beating, the familiar photo of Lu Yuan with the scissor hand in the movie "Tall, Rich and Handsome", and the familiar rhythm...

But the creators of the nominated works became nervous again.

Yes, they were nervous.

This time it’s the Best Editing Award!

An award that is not the most valuable but is very important.

"Based on the analysis of many judges, the judges unanimously determined that the work that won the Goya Award for Best Editing is..."

The host took the card and looked at it, then flipped it over and found that the two familiar words were still on it.

He hesitated and looked around at everyone, and suddenly felt a sense of embarrassment.

Everyone thought the host was keeping the secret.

The host brought everyone's emotions to the highest point after doing this...

In fact, the host didn't keep the secret...

He was indeed embarrassed.

"Although I don't know what to say now, even though maybe it's God's favor, even though... never mind, congratulations, Lu Yuan, you won another award!"

On the stage, the host's eyes finally fixed on Lu Yuan's position.

At this moment, all the lights were on Lu Yuan.

Wang Jinxue was a little stunned this time and even forgot to remind Lu Yuan.

But Lu Yuan stood up as if by reflex and straightened his tie which was not at all messy.

After looking at everyone's gazes and the glaring lights, Lu Yuan hesitated and looked down at Wang Jinxue who had forgotten to stand up.

“Did I win another award?”

"Well... this time it's the Best Editing Award..."

“Wasn’t the editing of Buried Alive terrible before?”

"It was terrible, but you edited and remade it once. Did you forget?"

"Oh, I remember now, I seem to have spent a lot of money, so I'm on stage?"

"Well... go ahead!"

Lu Yuan bent down and handed two trophies, one on the left and one on the right, to Wang Jinxue, then walked towards the stage.

This is his third time on stage.

To be honest, his brain is blank now. Even if he has a wild imagination and is good at imagining, he could not have imagined that he would win the award again.

The plot was exactly the same as before. After thanking the host, he took the trophy and gave his acceptance speech.

"Thank you for your support. It's not easy for me to win this award. I spent a very long time on this film, even..."

“…”

“…”

The audience was speechless.

Applause broke out, but the applause had already begun to become extremely loud, and was even mixed with a feeling of being stunned by everyone.

The audience didn't know what to say.

They even felt like they were watching a replay.

Yes, they found that this person has been repeating the same thing since he took the stage.

The facial expressions and bowing movements of Lu Yuan during his acceptance speech were all exactly the same. This time, it was even crazier. Except for a few words in his acceptance speech, everything else remained the same...

"???"

"that's all?"

"Again?"

"Tell me, am I watching a replay right now?"

"Although this is not a replay, Chinese boy, we have no objection to you winning three awards in a row, but can you change your acceptance speech?"

"Yeah, are you going to ruin our Spanish Goya Awards?"

"Chinese boy, are these the only two sentences you can say? Please, give me something more original."

“…”

After finishing his acceptance speech, Lu Yuan looked at the host with a forced smile on his face and the audience who wanted to throw things at him. He suddenly shuddered all over and quickly walked off the stage.

He felt kind of downcast.

On all major online platforms.

"Did you get the third prize?"

"Yes, I got the third prize as well."

"666, this... Er Gouzi has broken the record!"

"This is definitely going to break the record. Who else can be so awesome?"

"It's terrible, I'm shocked!"

Netizens who were staring at the screen the entire time were stunned.

Then they realized this could be a historic operation.

In an instant, countless 666s appeared on the live streaming platform on the Internet.

Then, when they heard Lu Yuan's acceptance speech, they were all petrified.

Even in their dreams they could never have imagined that Lu Yuan's operation would be so awesome.

If there was nothing wrong with saying those words in the acceptance speech the first time, they could barely tolerate saying it the second time.

But the third time.

What is this person doing the third time?

You've already said it once. Do you want to say it again?

Can’t you change your acceptance speech?

Didn’t you see that few audiences applauded you?

Make trouble, you really want to make trouble!

"Ahem, Mr. Lu's acceptance speech is really touching. Ahem, ahem, let's move on to the next segment. The next segment is..." The host on the stage felt speechless but he had no way to say anything to Lu Yuan, so he could only try to smooth things over.

After all, acceptance speeches are entirely up to you to express yourself freely. As long as they don't involve policies or other metaphorical remarks, there's actually nothing wrong with them.

The other audience members were also speechless, and even a few in the back row kept looking at Lu Yuan and pointing at him from time to time. Their expressions looked as if they had eaten an expired hot dog.

"Lu Yuan...you...that's all you'll say in your acceptance speech?"

When Lu Yuan returned to his seat, Wang Jinxue, who was holding the trophy, felt a little embarrassed.

It was an exciting thing for Lu Yuan to win three awards in a row, but this excitement was ruined by his acceptance speech.

"Ahem, ahem... I didn't expect that I could win three awards, so I didn't prepare much..."

"This... you must be more careful next time. Don't let something like this happen again, okay?"

"Well, then should I search for acceptance speeches on my phone now?"

"No need. It's useless to search after what has happened. I'll help you prepare more before you win the prize next time."

"Yeah, okay."

While Lu Yuan and Wang Jinxue were whispering to each other, the host on the stage took out the card for the next award.

The card for Best Picture...

Then the host looked at the contents on the card and his eyes widened and he almost had a heart attack.

He wiped his eyes and even thought he had taken the wrong card, but when he looked at the card...

Absolutely right!

so……

"Oh my God, the fourth winner of the Best Picture Award is still this Chinese kid. Yes, it's you. You don't have to sit down, because this award is yours again. Come up..."

“…”

"???"

“…”

There was complete silence.

The whole audience was silent.

Everyone looked at Lu Yuan stupidly as he stood up.

They want to curse.

Why is it him again?

The fourth time!

What is this person going to do?

Want to contract Spanish Goya?

Or do you really want to destroy Spain?
