Chapter 171 I Want to Thank Lu Yuan



Thomson is great.

At least Lu Yuan felt as if he had suddenly realized something.

Lu Yuan felt that he had learned a lot.

As soon as this guy got on stage and received the trophy, his eyes suddenly turned red and he looked like he was about to cry. Then when he was giving his acceptance speech, his speech was intermittent and he was choking. Lu Yuan saw that he was so excited that his nose was running.

Even if Lu Yuan didn't understand what he was saying, he knew he must be saying something touching and tear-jerking.

But……

When Wang Jinxue translated that Thomson was thanking his parents, grandparents, and the big golden retriever who had always been with him at home, Lu Yuan instantly felt that his worldview had been overturned...

Is this comment okay?

He subconsciously looked at other people, but was at a loss when he saw that everyone else looked very moved. Even the assistant sitting with Thomson was wiping tears.

"Wang Jinxue...that..."

"What?"

"Are you sure you didn't mistranslate? Is he really thanking the big golden retriever now? Why are these people so moved?"

“…”

Wang Jinxue, who was smiling and in a good mood, immediately turned cold after seeing Lu Yuan's distrustful expression.

Afterwards, she stopped looking at Lu Yuan and acted as if she didn't want to care about him anymore.

Lu Yuan was very embarrassed.

Looking at Wang Jinxue's expression, he knew that there was no need for her to lie to him.

After all, that doesn't make any sense.

Lu Yuan silently memorized Thomson's remarks, and even brought his expression, his movements, and his demeanor into his mind.

If you encounter a similar situation in the future, you can actually do the same thing yourself.

There's nothing wrong with that. It's better than giving the same acceptance speech over and over again, right?

Life is like a play and it all depends on your acting skills.

He sighed again.

Thomson's thanks won warm applause, and a group of people behind him even cheered for him.

This is completely different from Lu Yuan's acceptance speech. The gap is really too big.

After the applause ended, the host came on stage happily, and the expression on his face returned to its previous happy state.

The awards for Best Sound Effects and Best Original Song were then announced.

These two awards had nothing to do with Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan just watched the winners go on stage and give different speeches.

Lu Yuan was even more confused.

Before, Wang Jinxue would translate for Lu Yuan, but because of Lu Yuan's rude words just now, Wang Jinxue now ignores Lu Yuan.

All right.

Lu Yuan could only look at their expressions and try to imagine what he would do next time he went on stage.

After the two awards were announced, a Canadian singer came on stage and sang a very lyrical and gentle song, which was met with thunderous applause. Lu Yuan could clearly feel that the audience was much more excited, and the overall atmosphere was very pleasant, at least much better than when he first came on stage.

The host continued on stage.

"Next, I'm going to announce the winner of this year's Best Director award... Who is this year's Best Director? Is it Carl, the director of 'The Flash', or Jackson Jr., the director of 'The Family', or James, the director of 'The Dark Knight'? Oh, yes, there's also 'Buried' by Chinese director Lu Yuan..." The host had a happy smile on his face when he talked about other directors, but after talking about Lu Yuan, his expression became a little bit unnatural.

His pupils shrank slightly.

Perhaps it was because Lu Yuan’s previous actions were too fierce, and now he was really afraid that Lu Yuan would suddenly do the same thing again.

A series of movie scenes appeared on the big screen, including one of the magical Scissor Hands that made all the audience feel annoyed.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Lu Yuan found that ever since his photo was shown on the big screen, he clearly felt that the atmosphere around him had completely changed.

It gets a little weird.

He subconsciously looked at the others, but found that they were all looking at him with unusually vigilant expressions...

This made Lu Yuan feel a little ashamed.

What are you staring at me for?

James was indeed staring at Lu Yuan.

The more he stared at Lu Yuan, the more he felt something was wrong.

I always feel that Lu Yuan is blessed by God today.

At first he thought that he had a good chance of winning the Best Director award. After all, he was very famous in California, and the film he brought, "The Dark Knight," was of high quality, with a box office of over $500 million, ranking first among the films of the same period.

But……

I don’t know why Lu Yuan’s appearance made him suddenly nervous.

Especially since Lu Yuan won four awards in a row at the beginning, everyone was speechless. Lu Yuan's aura even gave people the impression that he was going to win all six awards.

This left James speechless.

Although it is ridiculous for a fledgling director like Lu Yuan to win the Best Director award.

but……

Isn’t it ridiculous to win four awards right at the start?

The other directors had basically the same expression when they looked at Lu Yuan.

At first they thought that their competitor was the famous director sitting next to them, but Lu Yuan's operation of winning four awards right at the start was really amazing.

They were more or less uncomfortable with it.

At this moment they were like frightened birds, especially when they saw the extremely LOW photo of Lu Yuan making the hand gesture on the big screen, they had an even worse feeling that something was very bad.

This premonition is very real.

"Well... the competition for the best director this time is very fierce. Now let's ask Miss Amy to predict who the best director will be?"

The Best Director award is the grand prize of the entire Goya Awards.

Of course, the host cannot reveal the secret all at once like he does with other awards. He must whet everyone's appetite and create a very tense atmosphere for everyone.

A beautiful blonde woman walked onto the stage, smiled, muttered some comments, and then walked off the stage.

Lu Yuan gradually began to feel restless.

He noticed that the host on the stage was looking at him.

At the same time, everyone around him was watching him.

"What did the woman say?"

Lu Yuan finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked Wang Jinxue.

"Don't you think I'm mistranslating? Why do you ask me if you don't believe me?"

"I'm sorry, I apologize to you." Lu Yuan said with a bitter face.

He was speechless in such a disappointing environment.

What else can he do if he can’t understand or speak?

We can't remain in the dark until the end.

"That woman said that you have the highest chance of winning because you have won four prizes in a row. She thinks you might win the fifth upset..."

"Best Director?"

"right."

"Do you also think I have a chance of winning?"

"I can't say for sure. According to common sense, you definitely won't win the award. After all, there has never been a precedent for a Chinese film to win the Best Director Award. Moreover, most of your competitors are well-known directors. Your chances of winning are really slim... Of course, this is for ordinary people under normal circumstances, but you are a little different."

"Why? Am I not a human being?"

"You are a human, but at the same time you are a pervert among humans..." Wang Jinxue laughed.

“…”

Wang Jinxue's words made Lu Yuan treat him like a grandson. Lu Yuan felt that Wang Jinxue was finding new ways to scold him.

But he didn't dare to fight back.

Lu Yuan got scared.

It’s okay for him to fight back, but who will translate for Lu Yuan after that?

Does Lu Yuan really have to remain deaf and dumb here until the end?

This is quite depressing.

When the host saw that the atmosphere was heated up and the audience's emotions were aroused, he finally smiled and slowly opened the card.

In fact, he was a little nervous.

He was afraid that another Lu Yuan would suddenly appear on the card.

After opening the card, he smiled, a smile of satisfaction and relaxation.

Without Lu Yuan, there would be no Lu Yuan.

"Congratulations to Director James, congratulations to James!"

He suddenly started shouting excitedly while holding the microphone on the stage, his voice was extremely excited.

In an instant, James in front stood up with an expression of great surprise on his face!

He even turned around and took another look at Lu Yuan.

He was extremely happy when he saw Lu Yuan's confused expression.

At this moment, applause broke out wildly and the atmosphere became obviously warmer than ever before.

He enjoyed the feeling.

"It really wasn't you..." Wang Jinxue smiled faintly. "Although it's a bit regrettable, it's definitely a happy thing for others to see and hear."

"ah?"

"I don't think many people here will like you..."

"Why?"

"Don't you see that you've disgusted them by winning four awards in a row? If you win another Best Director award, I guess they won't even be able to eat breakfast tomorrow... Look, Director James is now regarded as a hero by these people?"

"How is that possible... I've actually always had a good relationship with people." Lu Yuan looked around and felt that he was not that annoying, but his excuses seemed so pale and powerless in the general environment.

Am I really that annoying?

He asked himself this in his heart.

No.

He probably didn't.

Director James was very happy to be on stage, a complete change from his usual calm demeanor.

After going on stage, he took a special look at Lu Yuan and smiled.

He is the winner!

He suddenly felt a little bit swelled up like a young man.

How many years have I not felt this way?

If it was a miracle for Lu Yuan to win four awards in a row, then he existed to kill miracles.

"Well, thank you all for your support, thank you all for your kindness, I always believe that God is fair..." James gave his acceptance speech with great enthusiasm, appearing so gentlemanly and natural in front of the camera.

When Lu Yuan compared himself with him, he instantly felt that the gap was as huge as heaven and earth.

As he was talking, James suddenly looked at Lu Yuan again.

He smiled happily, but his smile gradually turned serious, but his voice was a little excited.

"I also want to thank someone, that person is the Chinese director sitting in the audience, Lu Yuan! Thank you for composing the song "Romance of Love". If there is a chance, I hope we can have a cup of coffee together after the awards ceremony. I sincerely hope that you can compose another song for my next movie "California Nights"... Well, I like your music!"

"???"

Lu Yuan frowned when he heard James' sudden high-pitched voice on the stage.

What is this person doing?

Are you provoking me?

Are you so awesome just because you won the Best Director award?

When the light shone on Lu Yuan, after looking at the very strange expressions of the others, Lu Yuan inexplicably felt that he should roll up his sleeves and say something like: "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west."

He felt that this sentence was very appropriate.

"???"

"What? Director James asked us to sing a song?"

"this……"

"Fuck, this is so awesome!"
