Chapter 111 This journey is too hard
The day of the awards ceremony came quickly.
Because the award ceremony was live, the grandmother was waiting in front of the TV early to see her grandson.
The grandmother was always extremely concerned about her only grandson, but Ning Mingluo had played very few roles in the past, and the grandmother was worried that Ning Mingluo would feel uncomfortable, so she didn't mention these things much.
Her concern has always been there, and now seeing Ning Mingluo's success, she feels so proud.
Ning Mingluo appeared with the entire crew of "Blood Prince".
The order of the red carpet is also at the finale.
The host watched groups of guests walk onto the red carpet in an orderly manner.
When I saw the people around me getting restless and the flashes of light kept coming, I knew which group would come on stage next.
"Now, let us welcome the Blood Prince crew. Led by Director Zeng, they have been nominated for numerous awards. Ning Mingluo's performance was particularly eye-catching, and countless people were moved by his performance. Let us welcome them once again."
"Blood Prince" can almost be said to be a phenomenal movie, and it is no stranger to both the audience and people in the industry.
There is no love or hate in it, only family and country, but it is heart-wrenching, especially the ending is unconventional and makes people think deeply.
So a movie like this, even after so much time has passed, still makes everyone excited.
After such a long time, Ning Mingluo finally got used to the flash lights and walked calmly beside Director Zeng onto the red carpet.
Compared to a few months ago, Ning Mingluo is now more confident.
Wrapped in a gray suit, he looks confident and upright, like a bamboo, thin but tough.
With the appearance of Ning Mingluo, people who were watching the live broadcast or offline were a little crazy.
Ning Mingluo is like a treasure. The deeper you dig, the more you will be attracted to him.
Ning Mingluo is the most special one because he is kind to his fans, has strong business skills, and does not flatter anyone in this circle.
This kind of specialness attracts countless people.
Similarly, the media also likes Ning Mingluo, for the simple reason that Ning Mingluo is a very popular topic.
Even if it's just a face, it can occupy the exclusive position of the hot search terms in the Palace of Ier.
They didn’t care much about it before, but as time went by, they discovered it.
It’s not that Ningmingluo needs hot searches, but that hot searches need Ningmingluo.
Every time he appears, the popularity he brings is unprecedented.
This is a rare phenomenon in the entertainment industry, which has been silent for a long time.
What an artist fears most is not being discussed, but Ning Mingluo seems to be born with this kind of discussion.
When taking photos on the red carpet, Ning Mingluo could feel many cameras pointing at him.
Respond to everyone with a smile.
Director Zeng gave the impression that the Wu family's son had grown up.
In a sense, he is the person who watched Ning Mingluo grow up. When filming "Blood Prince", Ning Mingluo was not famous yet, but now half of the people in the entertainment industry are crazy about him.
"Mingluo, congratulations. I'm glad I let you play this role."
Seeing the affirmation and satisfaction in Director Zeng's eyes, Ning Mingluo smiled modestly: "It was you who gave me this opportunity to perform. My current achievements are inseparable from you."
The movie "Blood Prince" is different from many other movies. There are many actors involved, but there is actually no second male lead or third male lead, let alone the first and second female leads. In this movie, everyone serves the protagonist, and everyone else is just two words: "supporting roles."
Even because of Director Zeng's influence, many roles are played by actors with little fame in the circle. They are all supporting roles in this movie and they only serve the protagonist.
This is also the reason why this script has been shelved for so many years, because Director Zeng always felt that no matter who played the role, it would be a little lacking.
Those with the right looks lack the temperament, and those with the right temperament lack the looks. Director Zeng always feels that they are not perfect enough.
Until Ning Mingluo appeared.
Finally, Director Zeng’s dream came true, and a movie was created that made everyone crazy.
After the red carpet, everyone took their seats. The award ceremony had not yet officially begun when Ning Mingluo noticed that his phone vibrated.
Take it out and see who sent the message.
When he saw that it was a message sent by his lover to ease his tension, the corners of his lips subconsciously curled up.
Gu Xiucheng: [Don't be afraid, it's just an award. You're still young, and there will be many more in the future.]
Ning Mingluo raised an eyebrow: [Mr. Gu, are you sure I won't win the award?]
Gu Xiucheng: [It seems that Teacher Ning is very confident]
Ever since one time on the crew, Gu Xiucheng heard others call him Teacher Ning, and he always liked to call him that in private.
Ning Mingluo was a little shy. Others called him that out of politeness and respect, but when Gu Xiucheng called him that, he always felt that it was a bit inappropriate. But since the man wouldn't listen, he could only let him do what he wanted.
Ning Mingluo: [I just have confidence in Mr. Gu's vision. After all, I'm an artist signed by Mr. Gu himself.]
Gu Xiucheng looked at the message sent by Ning Mingluo and smiled. His lover was becoming more and more clever, but still as charming as ever.
Gu Xiucheng: [Yes, indeed. I believe that Teacher Ning will be the most dazzling tonight.]
Ning Mingluo knew that Gu Xiucheng sent the message specifically to ease his nervousness. Although he had lived two lives, this was the second time he was nominated after winning the award as a teenager. How could he not be nervous?
Whether he could get recognition depended on today, and Ning Mingluo's breathing couldn't help but quicken.
The award ceremony officially began, and Ning Mingluo put away his phone, maintained his posture, and looked towards the stage.
After a brief speech and review, the highlight of the night, the award ceremony, officially began.
After the previous awards, it was finally time for the Best Actor award, which touched the hearts of many fans and actors.
The award presenters for the Best Actor were the Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress of the previous session. Ning Mingluo was a little surprised by this combination at first.
Director Zeng leaned over to Ning Mingluo and whispered, "They are a couple. I heard that today is their tenth wedding anniversary."
Ning Mingluo looked surprised. No wonder they were arranged to be together.
The award presenter read out the names of all the actors nominated for Best Actor tonight, and then the big screen played the actors' highlights.
It is not difficult to see from these clips that everyone's performance is excellent. Even if Ning Mingluo were to judge by himself, it would be difficult to tell who was better, and he became even more nervous.
Director Zeng was calm and composed. After all, he had made so many works and had participated in countless award ceremonies, so he could roughly figure out some of the tricks.
He was very optimistic about Ning Mingluo winning the award, but he was also a little worried.
Because the character played by Ning Mingluo is not a decent person in the traditional sense.
This character is more neutral. He cares about his family feud and national hatred, but he doesn't care that much about the chaotic world. He advocates rebuilding order in chaos.
This is not a perfect character, and even has some crazy attributes, which is a disadvantage.
But people are tired of seeing those characters who are true, kind and beautiful. Sacrificing oneself for the sake of others is certainly worthy of praise, but there are also some people who should not be forgotten.
They used a seemingly paranoid method to fight their way out of the darkness, giving those kind people a chance to struggle.
How can such a role not be considered another kind of redemption?
Director Zeng stared at the stage, wondering whose name was written on the thin card in the award presenter's hand.
Ning Mingluo's heart also began to hang in the air.
The closer I get, the more scared I become.
"Let me congratulate Chen Xi, the best actor tonight! He is in 'The Sea'..."
After hearing the name of the best actor, Ning Mingluo was stunned for a moment. It was somewhat expected, but he couldn't help but feel a little melancholy in his heart.
He didn't win Best Actor.
Ning Mingluo was only distracted for a moment and quickly returned to normal. The awards ceremony was still going on and he couldn't lose his composure.
At this time, the grandmother who was watching the live broadcast followed the camera and turned her gaze to her grandson. Of course, she knew her grandson well.
She did not miss the daze and loss at that moment, and felt sorry for her grandson, but there was only one Best Actor award, and it was not easy to win.
Similarly, many people paid attention to this award ceremony. Many people did not understand why Ning Mingluo's performance was so outstanding. His acting skills were enough to bring everyone who watched the movie into the movie.
And everyone can understand that it was not him who caused the chaos, but the general background of that era was like that, so the current result occurred.
But why doesn't the last bit of light shine on Ning Mingluo?
Ning Mingluo's fans were also very sad. They had thought that this award was a foregone conclusion, because there were many movies and actors in the same period with visible gaps between Ning Mingluo and her performance. However, this award was not won by Ning Mingluo.
Everyone feels aggrieved, but everyone understands that the one who feels the most aggrieved right now is probably Ning Mingluo.
Seeing him with the same smile as always on his face, fans couldn't help but feel distressed.
Director Zeng consoled him, "Maybe it's the character's personality, not your acting. Don't be sad. There will be many opportunities in the future. You have the talent. Believe me, it's only a matter of time before you win the Best Actor award."
Ning Mingluo smiled at the director and said, "It's okay. I know this nomination is already a great affirmation. I still have a long way to go in the future."
Although she said so, after the award ceremony, Ning Mingluo couldn't help herself when she saw Gu Xiucheng waiting for her in the car. She immediately dived into Gu Xiucheng's arms and buried her whole face in Gu Xiucheng's chest.
Gu Xiucheng could feel a wet spot on his chest.
They are the tears of a lover.
Ning Mingluo can say in front of many people that he is very good and that he still has a long way to go in the future. This nomination is an affirmation.
But he couldn't pretend in front of Gu Xiucheng, because no one knew how long it took him to get to where he is now.
Two lifetimes is too long for him.
