Chapter 56: Nominated for Magnolia Awards for Newcomer Screenwriter



In May, the male lead Hu Ge finally joined the crew, but because of the events in the southwest, everyone was in low spirits and the shooting progress did not increase significantly.

It was not until June that everyone got rid of the gloomy weather and the crew of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" slowly returned to its previous state.

And with the addition of Hu Ge, the atmosphere on the crew has been taken to a new level.

In fact, before this, the filming atmosphere on the crew was very pleasant. After all, with two emotionally intelligent people, Wei Yang and Da Mimi, there was no way the filming would be dull.

However, Da Mimi prefers to play with girls, and Wei Yang is somewhat girl-centric, so he is not particularly attracted to Huo Jianhua. Moreover, Wei Yang has a high emotional intelligence, which is more reflected in his social and interpersonal skills.

It is very comfortable to interact with Wei Yang. I feel that he is thoughtful, enthusiastic and sincere. I even think that he is humorous and interesting. It is very fun to chat and have fun with him, and I can hardly find anything obviously inappropriate afterwards.

But expecting Wei Yang to act funny and create a cheerful and lively atmosphere, and get everyone laughing, acting crazy and having fun happily, would be putting it in a difficult position for him.

And this is exactly Hu Ge's strong point. He is more or less a funny person.

He likes to act funny and has a good relationship with people on the crew. He can have fun with both men and women, and he quickly brings the atmosphere of the crew to a higher level.

After all, we are all young people and the gap between us is not that big. Even if there may be some small thoughts, it is not a big deal. As long as we get to know each other, it is easy to make friends with each other.

Therefore, Wei Yang spoke highly of Hu Ge, believing that he acted as a glue, bringing together the originally somewhat loosely organized creative teams.

This is also something Wei Yang should learn.

He may be able to be friends with everyone, but knowing how to make friends with everyone will benefit him personally.

June 13, Hu Ge's room Wei Yang forcefully suppressed Hu Ge and Yuan Hong who wanted to watch the European Cup live broadcast, and switched the channel to Shanghai Satellite TV, waiting to watch the live broadcast of this year's Magnolia Awards.

Da Mimi, Liu Shishi and Tang Yan saw that there were so many people here, so they came over to join in the fun. When they realized that they were watching an award ceremony, they found it very boring and Da Mimi started to make a noise.

"What's there to watch? It has nothing to do with us. Change the channel and watch Happy Camp."

"Who said it doesn't matter?"

Wei Yang replied, and Da Mimi suddenly looked at him suspiciously, "You won't be present at the awards ceremony tonight, right?"

After these words were spoken, Hu Ge and the others also turned their eyes to Wei Yang, who smiled reservedly.

"It's a shame that The Best of Us was nominated for Best TV Series, but it's likely to just be a runner-up. We're just there to watch the fun."

“Awesome.”

Several people were amazed. There was no need to say much about Tang Yan and Liu Shishi who had not yet made their mark. Hu Ge and Da Mimi were actually quite popular and had won some awards, but their value was definitely not comparable to that of the Magnolia Awards.

Although the influence of the three major awards for TV dramas has not yet been established because the Magnolia Awards have just undergone transformation, the foundation accumulated over the years is still sufficient.

At least it is an occasion where the new generation like Hu Ge and Da Mimi cannot compete for the time being.

Nowadays, the plays that Wei Yang wrote and starred in and participated in producing can be nominated for important awards. Even if there is no hope of winning, it is a good result.

After all, Wei Yang is only 20 years old, still a sophomore in college, and has only one debut work.

Wei Yang pretended to be a bit cool and explained: "This time, I got some help from Shanghai TV. I just happened to get a nomination for an idol drama."

In fact, according to Xia Cong of Blue Whale, there should be some other reasons, but the details are not clear. Anyway, "The Best of Us" got the upper hand.

This year, the Magnolia Awards are mainly for dramas, and there are only two nominations for idol dramas.

"The Best of Us" and "Love at the Corner" starring Big S and a certain pig

From this perspective, the nomination for "The Best of Us" is quite valuable. Even Long Xuetong and the class teacher called him to congratulate and encourage him after receiving the letter.

Da Mimi's focus was more direct: "With this nomination, your royalties will definitely increase dramatically."

Wei Yang had won awards in his previous life, so he had experience in this area.

The market guarantees the lower limit of your royalties. Awards are just your resume. Sometimes they can raise the upper limit, and sometimes they are equivalent to nothing. It mainly depends on whether Party A recognizes it.

It doesn’t matter whether there is any royalty or not. The main thing is that Wei Yang can take this opportunity to market and enrich his character positioning as a “cultural/literary artist.”

Of course, Wei Yang was still relatively rational, and the marketing plan he discussed with Lei Chun was somewhat conservative and not exaggerated too much.

It’s hard to say whether this is Wei Yang’s advantage or disadvantage.

They are cautious in doing things, believe that too much is as bad as too little, like to weigh the pros and cons and take every step carefully. This makes it less likely for them to go wrong, but occasionally they may be too cautious and lose some opportunities.

The screenwriter's debut work was nominated for the Magnolia Award for Best TV Series. If it were that dead girl, he would have dared to sue Liu Heping and Lu Wei.

Although it is bound to cause controversy, it will be easier to stand out after all with exposure and popularity.

Fortunately, Wei Yang has another big advantage, which is that he has a lot of cards to play, so even if he acts cautiously, he can slowly accumulate to a certain level.

This is also the reason why Wei Yang knew that this was a good opportunity for hype, but he did not choose aggressive marketing. He was still young and had plenty of time...

After all, it is a TV drama award, and most of the attendees are big names of the middle-aged generation. There is not much gossip to see, and the Magnolia Awards ceremony is a bit boring.

"Golden Wedding" was a huge success, winning the [Best Screenwriter], Best Actor and Best Actress awards and the [Silver Award for Best TV Series].

Wei Yang was more concerned about the [Best TV Series Gold Award] and [Best Screenwriter Award] which were won by "Soldier Assault".

"The Best of Us" was the runner-up as expected, but Wei Yang was not too disappointed.

"Golden Wedding", "Soldier Assault", "Double-Sided Adhesive Tape", "Crossing Guandong", "Struggle"...

All of them are tough guys who can be recorded in the history of Chinese TV dramas. It is very good to be able to run for the throne once.

Besides, Wei Yang himself has confidence. Now he is still in the starting stage, so he should prefer idol-themed dramas. This means that once he has gained a firm foothold, he can then "create" high-quality dramas that have both good reputation and good results, and occasionally have the opportunity to win awards.

When the other people saw that Wei Yang didn’t win the award, they wanted to say a few words of comfort to him, but before they could open their mouths, Wei Yang had already started to “play the victim”.

"Oh, I am so sad and upset. Sisters, please be merciful and open your warm arms to comfort my cold heart."

"No problem, Shishi, Tangtang, the three of us will comfort the great screenwriter Wei."

Da Mimi rolled up her sleeves and stared at Wei Yang eagerly. Tang Yan gestured to Wei Yang with a smile on her face. Liu Shishi was not as exaggerated as the other two, but she also cooperated and made an encirclement posture.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Wei Yang stood up and was about to run away. Da Mimi was nearby and hurriedly stretched out her arms to stop him.

However, Wei Yang was too fast and they bumped into each other. Through the thin shirt, Wei Yang could feel the surge of Da Mi Mi very intuitively.

“It should still be original.”

"you……"

Da Mimi was almost angry to death, Wei Yang quickly ran away, chasing after him with bared teeth and claws, the others were laughing, and Hu Ge was still there cheering and directing.

"Get on your feet, get on your feet."

"Nice, Lao Wei's roundabout way is good."

"Haha, Mimi, you can't just grab that thing. He's Lao Wei's only child..."
