When the words "Golden Mop" award were spoken, the originally enthusiastic atmosphere at the scene cooled down again.
In fact, many people present held relatively "conservative" opinions on the awarding of this prize.
But because they were recognized by the Kuiguang Group as the best in various aspects, and had won both a pure gold trophy and film and television resources, they thought about it and decided tacitly to treat the "Golden Mop" award with the most serious and earnest attitude.
It's a simple truth that the "Golden Image" and "Golden Mop" are awards bundled together. In order to maintain the value of the Golden Image Awards, everyone here must take it seriously.
Otherwise it would be like slapping yourself in the face.
Anyway, the Golden Mop Award was not given to them, so I would rather die than let my friend die. For the value of the Academy Awards and the weight of the trophy in my hands, it is not impossible to sacrifice the interests of Yuefu Group.
There is no way, because Kuiguang Group gave too much.
Crackle, clackle...
After a few seconds of silence, there was enthusiastic applause from the audience.
On the other hand, Yang Ruoqian, who had no choice but to follow the crowd and applaud, was completely confused - no, this was clearly a spoof award, why were all these big directors and big stars applauding? What did that serious expression on your face mean?
Where are the laughter and the disdain?
Isn't it just a flashy trophy, isn't it just some entertainment resources? Where is the integrity of a big name in the entertainment industry? He should be incorruptible and not be tempted by profit.
The warm applause at the scene was no less than the scene when the highest award was presented...
Yang Ruoqian had some doubts before, wondering if these directors and actors were intimidated by the high bonuses, but now he is very sure that these guys are definitely acting!
They clearly wanted to laugh, but because of external reasons, they forced themselves to hold back their laughter, and even clapped against their will! While Mr. Yang was angrily denouncing this group of people for their hypocrisy in his heart, he received a message on his mobile phone.
Cheng Fei: "Boss Yang, this scene is within your expectations, right? This is a very clever move, really very clever."
No! This is totally beyond my expectation. Don't make up your mind! However, Cheng Fei didn't care what Yang Ruoqian was thinking. She continued to analyze: "I understand... As long as the rhythm of the award ceremony is carried out according to your plan, and it is held in such a serious manner two or three times, this set of procedures will gradually form a fixed mindset in the minds of those who come after, and everyone will be influenced."
"As long as the award ceremony is held like this for one or two more years, everyone will subconsciously recognize the value of the Academy Awards, and even the Golden Mop Awards, and treat them with the utmost seriousness."
"And by that time, Mr. Yang, you will have complete authority to judge the works and artists in the entertainment industry as 'bad'."
"High! Really high!"
Yang Ruoqian looked at Cheng Fei's analysis with a bewildered look on his face, and really wanted to give this woman a few big question marks.
So I thought about these things when I made these decisions?
He set up a shocking plan without even knowing it himself?
Cheng Fei continued to send messages: "I am a little relieved now. Fortunately, we are in a cooperative relationship, not a competitive relationship. I will analyze the details of Mr. Yang's classic operation this time, and then make it into a teaching material to show those unpromising employees in our company how a real trader strategizes."
Yang Ruoqian: "Boss Cheng, uh, the specific situation may not be as complicated as you think."
Cheng Fei sent an understanding expression and added a text: "I understand, the truth is simple. There are many cameras filming now, we will discuss the details later!"
“…”
While Yang Ruoqian was confused, millions of viewers who watched the live award ceremony also expressed their opinions on this ridiculous scene.
"It's too ridiculous. A group of big names in the entertainment industry applauded something so funny so seriously?"
"Is it funny? Actually, not at all. You have to learn to analyze problems from the perspective of interests. The butt determines the head, understand?"
"If they don't take this comedy award seriously, it means they don't take the resources they just got and the gold cup in their hands seriously."
"I understand the underlying factors, but this scene just looks so ridiculous, it can be called a big Oscar night, hahahahahaha!"
“Everyone is an award-winning actor.”
"See if there will be someone who can't keep a straight face..."
"Found it. It seems like Yang Ruoqian can no longer hold back his facial expression. He's trying to cover up his emotions by playing with his phone. Hahahahaha!"
"Boss Yang, learn from your wife and see how good she is at performing!"
“…”
After keeping the audience in suspense, the host picked up a piece of paper with several abstract cartoon characters printed on it and read the name list, "The first Kuiguang Entertainment 'Golden Mop Award', the Most Disappointing Film Award goes to 'Fortress of the Magic City'!"
"Let us congratulate the winning team and thank them for spending a lot of money to pollute our eyes this year. Thank them!"
"Now, please invite the winners to come on stage to receive their awards!"
The host spoke these words fluently without any extra expression on his face. He looked at the empty seat in the guest seats with a smile.
There were the words "Yuefu Group Representative Seat" written in large letters.
Clap, warm applause broke out again.
In sharp contrast to the solemn atmosphere at the venue, the live broadcast room was flooded with comments... The number of viewers for this award ceremony was about to break the 10 million mark! Just like what the previous comment said, many people who care about the entertainment industry but don't care about these awards, and even many people who don't pay attention to the entertainment industry, clicked into the live broadcast room with the mentality of watching the fun.
It is foreseeable that after this live broadcast, there will be a carnival for people who like to have fun and make memes.
Perhaps the Academy Awards is not as "authoritative" as the three major film awards in mainland China, but in terms of going beyond the circle, today's live broadcast has made almost everyone aware of the existence of such an award as the Academy Awards.
Many people don’t know much about the entertainment industry. In their minds, the most famous award recognized by industry insiders is the most valuable award. Some people have never heard of any award other than the Oscars! Unfortunately, the Academy Awards has become the most famous one… at least the most famous award in recent times.
Although the Internet has a short memory, with the dual attributes of "interesting" and "annual", the situation of this awards ceremony may be very different.
In the live broadcast room, the operator of Kuiguang Group was very considerate and told everyone what happened in a prominent place.
Now being awarded is the worst series of the year.
Some newcomers who didn't know much immediately expressed surprise: "Worst of the Year Award? This kind of award is usually unofficial, right? What's going on here? At first glance, I thought it was some kind of international award."
The decoration, the trophy, the celebrities sitting in the guest seats... Which one of them didn't cost a lot, and which one of them didn't look very respectable? They actually gathered together to applaud for an award that looked funny, and so solemnly?
"Another newcomer. No need to explain. Just look at the title of the live broadcast room."
“Hahahahahaha!!! It’s really funny to see a bunch of big guys clapping at the air. No, I have to record this scene. It will be the source of all the laughs this year.”
"Yuefu Group: Not coming is my last act of stubbornness."
"No, what's up with the trophy for the Worst Film Award? Why is it so abstract? It's in stark contrast to the serious awards above. I'm dying of laughter, hahahaha!"
"I also want a trophy like this. It would be interesting to put it at home as a decoration."
"Haven't you heard that Kuiguang Group said that if the winner doesn't attend the award ceremony, they will sell the trophy on the second-hand market... But I think there should be a lot of people willing to buy it. If you think you're lucky, you can give it a try."
"And you're selling it on the second-hand market? That's a murder, right?"
"Kuiguang Group: Come, let us see how much your stubbornness is worth."
"How do the host ladies and brothers manage to keep their faces serious?"
"This is the first time I've seen someone receive an award with such joy."
While the barrage of comments was refreshing frantically, the host also completed the award ceremony and turned his attention away from the empty seat of Yuefu Group.
"Next, we're going to present the award for the most disappointing lead actor... Let's congratulate the lead actor of 'Fortress of the Devil'! Thank him for bringing us the worst scene of the year!"
At this time, without waiting for the guests to applaud, the barrage of comments had already started to appear on its own.
“Well-deserved!”
“I really agree with this.”
"Playfulness aside, I think this award is generally quite objective. After excluding actors from Kuiguang Group's own works, these seem to be the best and worst this year."
"I recognize the Kuiguang Organizing Committee... It's better than seeing the inside story of some awards."
“…Hahahahaha! This trophy for the Worst Actor Award is even funnier. From a distance it looks like a clown’s scare box. Forgive my low sense of humor!”
"But judging from the material, the material used for the Golden Mop Award trophy is totally different from that of the Academy Awards."
"That's nonsense. If the worst award can get a trophy of such high value, there will definitely be people who will have evil intentions and deliberately make bad movies to compete with each other in order to cheat for the Golden Mop Award."
"The value of the trophy for this worst award can't be too high."
“…”
On the podium, the host announced the awards one by one, and after half an hour, the Golden Mop Award ceremony was finally completed.
The female host put down the note in her hand and began to recite the closing words fluently: "... Then, this year's Golden Statue Foundation Award and Golden Mop Award ceremony has come to a successful conclusion!"
"Thank you to all the guests, thank you to all the audience, thank you to all the staff, thank you..."
"I wish you all...see you at the same time next year!"
After the last word was said, the guests who had been eager to leave immediately stood up, clapped their hands desperately until they were red and sore, and then fled from the award ceremony holding their trophies, facing the red carpet with flowers.
However, as soon as they walked out the door, they were interviewed by a large number of reporters.
"Director Xia Xu, could you please give a speech to express your gratitude for the award?"
Xia Xu's mouth twitched: "I have already posted it just now. If you forgot, you can go and watch the replay. Sorry."
Having said that, he took a step forward and wanted to leave.
However, these reporters were not easy to deal with. They asked again, "Then Director Xia Xu, what do you think of the Hong Kong Film Foundation Award itself?"
Xia Xu, who won the Best Director Award, said without hesitation: "I think this award is very valuable. The selection of the organizing committee is very objective and does not involve any personal emotions. If the organizing committee can maintain their objectivity, I believe that in three years at most, the Academy Awards will become one of the most authoritative awards in the entertainment industry."
This was Xia Xu's first "Best" award, so he had to brag about it to death! Bragging about the Academy Awards was like bragging about himself!
Moreover, he had promised others that if he won the grand prize without spending a penny on operations, he would perform on the spot and acknowledge with his real name that the Academy Award was the most objective and valuable award in the world, and he would also wash his hair while standing upside down.
They gave us two trophies worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and so many resources, so what's wrong with bragging? After getting a positive response, the reporter was finally satisfied and they went to look for other targets.
However, even the winners of other small awards who did not win the grand prize were all very unanimous in their views - they acknowledged the value of the Academy Awards and the objectivity of the organizing committee.
They are all people who have been mixed up in the entertainment industry. Unless they are crazy, no one would do something like smashing someone else's bowl right after finishing their meal.
Unless someone wants to collapse right after receiving the award.
Even after leaving the live broadcast, some stars and directors put the trophy in their cars or held it in their arms, took a few photos and posted them on social media.
"My family, this is really a pure gold cup! You don't know how heavy this trophy is. Alas, it is really a pleasant trouble."
"My grand trophy is different from other small trophies! The body of the trophy alone weighs at least 5 kilograms. You should have seen the expression on my face when I was giving the speech. Yes, that was not fake."
“…”
The reporters who had hoped to hear a different answer were disappointed. They seized the opportunity to stop the two hosts and asked, "Two hosts, why didn't you laugh when you were presenting the award to air?"
The two hosts said very professionally: "We have received strict training. No matter how funny it is, we will not laugh."
After that, the two of them said goodbye to the reporters with a smile and walked into the employee-only elevator.
bite……
The elevator began to descend.
After making sure that there was no one else around, the two hosts finally couldn't help but look at each other and laughed out loud: "Hahahahaha!"
At the same time, on a second-hand website, several trophies were quietly put on the shelves... (End of this chapter)
