Entertainment tycoon since 83

Chapter 90 Three Happinesses Come to the Door
“Congratulations Barbara Sukowa.”

As soon as the name came out, Huang Ze felt the hand on his arm loosen, and Gong Yu next to him sighed, "Alas."

But before they could even finish their sigh, the guest on stage said, "Congratulations, GongXue, congratulations to both of you!"

"Why did I hear my name?" Gong Xing clenched his hands again and muttered with a trembling voice.

"Double yolk egg, you won the Best Actress award!"

Huang Ze was surprised and happy when he said this!
Cannes has a good tradition of double yolk eggs.

Otherwise, it would be really hard to win, after all, Zhang Manyu performed better in her previous life, but she didn’t win the Best Actress award.

If two people take it at the same time, the difficulty is obviously reduced a lot.

But when people say it out loud, she is still the Cannes Best Actress. Who would bother to check how many Best Actresses there were that year? Even if there were five or six, the title of Cannes Best Actress is still impressive enough!

Just as Huang Ze was sighing, Gong Xing was standing there in a daze with a look of joy on his face.

I took it?
Did I really take it?

Although she had dreamed about it, when she really got it, she found that the joy she felt in the dream was still too little.

After all, this was her only movie after the incident and also the last movie of her life.

How could such a legend be left behind?

She didn't know whether this word was appropriate.

Anyway, she couldn't control her emotions anymore. She stood up and hugged Huang Ze, "Thank you, thank you."

"Congratulations, but please control your emotions and don't cry when you give your acceptance speech on stage."

"Okay, you're fine. If you can't speak English, just speak in Mandarin. We have a translator."

After patting Gong Xing on the back, Huang Ze let her go.

Gong Xing did not hug the others. After a simple handshake, he walked onto the stage with a sparkle in his eyes and a smile on his face.

He took the certificate from the judge and held it towards Huang Ze.

"I sincerely thank one person, Huang Ze."

"It was he who pulled me out of the abyss of despair when I was most helpless."

"It was also because of him that I was able to play such a charming role as Su Lizhen at the end of my acting career."

"What I didn't expect was that I would win the Best Actress award."

"Thank you!"

After holding up the certificate to Huang Ze again, Gong Xing began to say the same clichés as everyone else, thanking the country for its training, thanking the Cannes jury, and thanking all the actors and crew of In the Mood for Love.

After finishing the call, Gong Xing felt his legs go weak. He insisted on walking back to his seat, then slumped down in his seat and pushed the certificate to the right. "Here, take it. You deserve at least half of the credit for this award!"

"No!" Huang Ze refused to reach out, "What if I still have a prize? What if I touch the prize in advance and lose my luck?"

"Is there any other way to say this?"

"Have."

"Okay, if you say there is one, then there is one." Gong Xing took back the certificate, stroked it gently, and looked as if he was in a dream.

“I never thought that my dream would come true.”

"Oh, by the way, am I the first mainland Chinese actress to win the Best Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival?"

"Not just in the mainland." Huang Ze recalled and confirmed, "You are the first in the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong. And not just Cannes, Cannes, Venice and West Berlin, the so-called three major European awards, you are also the first Chinese actor."

"Congratulations, you set a record."

"Hehe, I have no regrets at the end of my acting career to receive such an award." Gong Yu looked at Huang Ze meaningfully, "The next step is to make my life regret-free."

"Ah."

"Have you two finished talking? Can you show me the certificate?" Liang Jiahui stretched out his hand with a bitter look on his face. "I'm not afraid of having no luck in winning awards. Anyway, I'm definitely not going to get the award this time."

"for you."

"Ah! How I wish I could be the best actor!" Liang Jiahui studied it carefully and his eyes fell on Huang Ze. "Director Huang, do you think I have a chance after I learn Mandarin well?"

"Yes!" Since the question was whether there was a chance, Huang Ze would of course answer yes!
Opportunities can be big or small.

Just think of it as the carrot hanging in front of Liang Jiahui.

Moreover, Huang Ze felt that with Liang Jiahui's acting skills, coupled with a script that could bring out his acting skills, it would be no problem for him to challenge for one of the three major film emperor titles.

The reason why he didn’t get it in his previous life was that he lacked luck.

Second, the most important link is missing: me!
"Ah! Then I'm serious!" Liang Jiahui said. "Practice well." Huang Ze nodded.

It's not impossible for me to try to help you make a breakthrough after you have practiced well, but as to whether you can get it or not, that depends on your luck.

Anyway, you can't be like Zhou Chaoxian in "Black Gold". I can't get things done, so you tie me to a helicopter and push me down.

I am fearless!

Then, as the Best Actor awards were given to Michelle Blanc for "The Evening Dress" and Bob Hoskins for "Mona Lisa", Liang Jiahui regretted even more that he had not practiced his Mandarin well. Otherwise, with his enthusiasm, he might have become an international film emperor this time.

Huang Ze was also delighted by this result.

Wow, another double yolk egg?

It seems that the judges this year also have difficulty making choices.

It’s good to have difficulty making choices! You might even win a prize.

The Palme d'Or is out of the question, but if you give yourself any of the Best Director and Jury Prizes, even if it's a double yolk, then with the Best Actress trophy and the Technical Award, In the Mood for Love can be considered a big winner at Cannes this year...

Well, it’s a bit of an exaggeration to say that it’s big, let’s just say that we won a complete victory

"Bless me! May the Jade Emperor bless me!"

At this moment, Huang Ze could only take temporary measures.

After praying, I realized something was not right!

"It seems like I'm worshipping the wrong god."

He was on French territory. Although France had defaulted on its debts to the Knights Templar, imprisoned the Pope in Avignon, and formed a sacrilegious alliance with the pagan Ottoman Empire, and participated in the Protestant Alliance as a Catholic country during the Reformation Wars, he was still the famous most filial son of Catholicism. Let's start over.

"Jesus bless you, Amen."

The guest walked onto the stage and said as he took out the envelope, "The winner of the Best Director Award at the 39th Cannes Film Festival is..."

"Jerry Huang, congratulations to Huang Ze."

"He is indeed a filial son. He worshipped correctly. Triple happiness has come to him!" Huang Ze muttered to himself, then smiled at the camera and stood up. Huang Ze was no longer so shy and hugged the people around him one by one.

The first one to be hugged is Gong Xing.

"congratulations!"

"Happy together, rejoice together."

"Congratulations, Director Huang, remember my Best Actor!"

"Don't worry, I won't forget it."

"Director Huang, I will work with you from now on. Will Xinghai still accept people?" Zhang Shuping asked while hugging.

"Take it! I'll start working when I get back."

Huang Ze naturally had no problem with this excellent art director and editor being willing to join.

Huang Ze had verbally accepted it and then walked towards the guest.

Step by step, as free and easy as the wind.

As the applause continued, Huang Ze received the certificate from the guest.

"Congratulations!"

"Thank you."

After Huang Ze took it, he lowered his head to study the certificate.

A paper roll tied with a red ribbon.

How simple and generous, yet how stingy!

What a pity that it is not the highest Palme d’Or!

Huang Zeju acted out what it means to be greedy for more after getting something. He showed the certificate to the camera and said with a smile, "To be honest, I didn't expect that I could win another award. After all, our crew of In the Mood for Love has already won two awards. This is a great affirmation of us by the jury. Thank you."

"Holding this certificate, I would first like to thank my motherland, the education I received in primary school, middle school and university, and the city where I was born and raised. Without them, I would have had a hard time making this film."

"I also want to thank Liang Jiahui and my fiancée Gong Xing for their performances. The filming of this movie was a bit torturous. At one point, Liang Jiahui even ate 20 bowls of wonton noodles, but they persevered."

"Zhang Shuping, Gu Changwei, Wang Jiawei..."

After thanking the main crew members and actors, the last thing I want to thank is of course "the fans who like my movies. I will continue to give you wonderful movies in return!"
