The Feitian Award is held every two years and is the highest award in the domestic television drama field.

Unlike the increasingly commercialized Golden Eagle and Magnolia Awards, the Feitian Awards have always adhered to the principle of government selection, emphasizing the ideological and artistry of TV dramas as well as their attention to and reflection of social realities, and are more inclined to realistic themes, main-theme dramas, costume dramas, spy war dramas and other genres.

This also leads to the fact that each Feitian Award is not as popular and receives less attention than the other two major awards.

Young people’s favorite idol dramas will not be nominated, and top stars who are sought after by fans are rarely invited. Without the topic they bring, the popularity of the awards will naturally be less.

However, this does not affect the status of the Feitian Award in the industry.

Although the three major awards are the top honors in the field of domestic television dramas, overall, the "Flying Apsaras Award", which is hosted by the State Administration of Radio and Television and represents the highest official recognition, is more valuable than the Golden Eagle and Magnolia Awards.

This year happens to be the year when the 33rd China TV Drama Feitian Awards is held.

On October 27, after the official announcement of the shortlist, online discussions about this year's Feitian Awards became increasingly heated.

".The competition for this year's Feitian Awards is very fierce, with Douban's "Mountains and Seas", "Awakening Age", "Meritorious Service" all scoring over 9 points, and the critically acclaimed "Setting Up" and "The Rebel".

Some media outlets say this year's Feitian Awards has the best reputation in history!"

On the private plane from Hainan to Beijing, Tian Xiwei sighed while scrolling through her phone.

Gu Wei, who was sitting opposite him, looked at the script in his hand and replied casually:

"There have been many high-quality dramas broadcast in the past two years, of which mainstream dramas account for a large proportion. Naturally, the competition for this year's Feitian Awards is fierce."

[The Wind Chasers] was shortlisted for this year's Feitian Awards, and Gu Wei was nominated for the Outstanding Actor Award. He took a few days off to attend the award ceremony.

Tian Xiwei had just finished filming her role on the set, and her new drama "Daily Life of a Lady" was about to be broadcast online, so she took a ride with Gu Wei to go back and participate in the platform's promotional activities.

“Although the opponent is very strong, I think our [Storm Chaser] is no worse than any other team.

Brother Wei, you acted so well, you will definitely win the Best Actor Award at this year's Feitian Awards!"

Oda put down his phone and looked at his boss opposite him. A sweet smile appeared on his cute face and his big watery eyes were full of trust and admiration.

Gu Wei put down the script in his hand and looked up with a smile: "If only it were as easy as I told you.

This year's Best Actor nominees include Ding Yongdai from "Crossing the Yalu River", Huang Xuan from "Mountains and Seas", Wang Lei from "Meritorious Service", Yu Hewei from "Awakening Age" and Zhang Jiayi from "The Stage".

They are all talented actors and the competition is quite fierce.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this is the “Feitian Award with the best reputation in history”

“But I think Wei Ruolai is the best, and the performance and popularity of these dramas are far less than our Storm Chasers!”

“Haha, this is indeed an advantage!”

In fact, Gu Wei also attaches great importance to this year's Feitian Awards. The last time he was nominated was 6 years ago, when he was nominated for Best Actor for "Nirvana in Fire". Unfortunately, he lost to Mr. Chen Baoguo for "All Quiet in Peking" and "Children of the Great River".

He has won the three major awards in the domestic TV drama field, the Golden Eagle Award and the Magnolia Award, and he only lacks the Feitian Award to achieve the Grand Slam.

"It's a pity that the Feitian Awards only have four individual awards: Outstanding Director, Outstanding Screenwriter, Outstanding Actor and Outstanding Actress. There are no awards for Best Supporting Actor or Best Supporting Actress. Otherwise, Xiaotian, your "Niu Chunmiao" could definitely be nominated, and even win the Best Supporting Actress award!"

Xiaotian was a little embarrassed: "I'm still far from it, how can I be that good?

I will be very satisfied if [The Daily Life of a Lover] can achieve good results after it is broadcast in a few days."

Gu Wei smiled and said, “I think this drama will be a big hit!

I’ll post on Weibo to help you promote it before the show starts!”

Xiao Tian smiled and nodded: "Brother Wei, if you win the Feitian Award for Best Actor this year, will you be the youngest winner of the Feitian Award?"

Gu Wei thought for a moment and shook his head: "I remember that the youngest winner of the Feitian Award was Mr. Chen Jianfei.

That year, he was only 27 years old when he won the Best Actor Award at the 5th Feitian Awards for his two works, "Harbin at Night" and "Going Far Away."

On November 1, the 33rd Feitian Awards was held as scheduled at Shougang Park in Beijing.

The award ceremony was live broadcast by Youku.

"The crew of [Awakening Age] is here, and Mr. Yu Hewei's acting is really good!"

"I feel like Yu Hewei wasn't famous when he was young, but he became very popular when he got older~"

"Haha, he has a lot of classic expressions, such as smoking, spitting, and playing music and dancing, which are all very funny!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Teacher Yu has a good chance of winning the Flying Actor Award this year. The movie Awakening was a critical and commercial success, and he acted well!"

"I think Wang Lei has a great chance of winning the award. His performance in [Li Yannian, a Man of Both Literature and Martial Arts] is amazing!"

"Wang Lei is good, but [Li Yannian, a Man of Both Literature and Martial Arts] is just a unit drama in [Meritorious Service], and he is one of the main characters."

"I think Gu Wei has a high chance of winning the award. This year's "The Wind Chaser" is so popular, it is definitely the best drama of 2022. No other TV series can compare to this.

And his performance in it is also very outstanding, no worse than Yu Hewei, Wang Lei and others!"

"I hope Gu Wei can win an award. He has already won the Golden Eagle Award and the Magnolia Award. If he wins the Feitian Award this year, he will have achieved the grand slam of domestic TV drama awards!"

"The crew of [The Rebel] walked the red carpet. This drama is quite good, but Zhu Yilong and Tong Yao don't look like a good match.

Tong Yao’s acting seems a bit childish, and her performance in the drama is obviously not as good as last year’s "Nothing But Thirty". I wonder why she was nominated for Outstanding Actress?

I feel like Zhu Yilong acted better than her, but he was not nominated for Outstanding Actor."

"It's obvious that the competition for Best Actor at this Feitian Awards is more intense than that for Best Actress.

The subject matter of "The Rebel" is similar to that of "The Wind Chaser", both of which belong to the spy war genre. Zhu Yilong's performance is far inferior to Gu Wei, so it is normal that he was not nominated.

Relatively speaking, although Tong Yao's performance was average, she was still better than the newcomer Wang Churan, whose acting skills were more immature, so she was nominated.

But she probably has little hope of winning the prize.”

"This year's Best Actress winner Reiza of [Mountains and Seas] has great hopes. She acted really well in the film!"

"Look! Gu Wei appears!

I didn’t expect that he would be the last to appear on the red carpet of the Feitian Awards! "

As the red carpet segment of the Feitian Awards was live-broadcasted, various discussions also emerged on the Internet. The moment Gu Wei stepped onto the red carpet, the number of barrages in the Youku-related live broadcast increased rapidly.

When Gu Wei, wearing a Louis Vuitton haute couture suit, stepped onto the red carpet, cheers and screams rang out. (End of this chapter)
