golden moonlight

For Qu Haiyao and Rong Yi, the two darlings of the European Film Festival, it is only natural that they will take "Aunt Hawthorn" to participate in the selection of the competition unit of the European Film Festival.This European Film Festival chose to be held in Provence, France, and according to the information released at the opening of the film festival, "Aunt Hawthorn" was shortlisted for six awards, and it is a veritable favorite to win the championship.What makes fans and passers-by even more bloody is that Rong Yi and Qu Haiyao were shortlisted for the Best Actor award at the same time.

Now there is a play to watch, and it's an all-round three-dimensional play.The domestic media and the industry are very concerned about how many "Aunt Hawthorn" can win out of the six awards. Fans are concerned that "Aunt Hawthorn" which has no publicity period finally has a chance to let the main creators walk on the red carpet. People on Chigualu are concerned about who can win the best actor award between Rong Yi and Qu Haiyao.

This is probably the first time that Qu Haiyao and Rong Yi, the two film kings who are so close to each other and wear the same pair of pants, have a direct conflict of interests. Chigualu also know that no matter who wins the film king, they will not treat them What is the real impact of personal relationships.However, human's big gene of watching the excitement still makes them very interested in it, and some gaming companies even offer lottery tickets, allowing lottery players to place bets on who will win this year's best actor.

It was almost a party that everyone was very happy about.The fans who picked up the airport in France received a group of relaxed and happy crew creators. Qu Haiyao played with his friends at the airport like a primary school chicken. Rong Yi was like a kindergarten monitor, but this monitor He also had no intention of stopping the troubled classmate Qu Haiyao, so he just let him make trouble. Anyway, after Qu Haiyao was done, he would run to his side to show that mentally handicapped children are so happy. Rong Yi didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

When asked by the media who he thinks he or Qu Haiyao will be the Best Actor of this year's European Film Festival, Rong Yi is quite modest.

"Don't dig a hole for me," Rong Yi said with a smile to the interviewing reporter, "I don't think at all that the actor will definitely be born between the two of us. There should be some shortlisted now..." He tilted his head and thought for a while, " I know that more than a dozen actors have been selected for the big list, and I have watched some films and performances, and they are really excellent. I don’t think our film has any chance of winning.”

"Among the many shortlisted films and filmmakers, don't you think you have the upper hand?"

Rong Yi's crossed legs changed positions up and down: "I have only watched a few of the shortlisted films, not all of them - even if I have seen all of them, I have no chance of winning - watching movies is a very personal experience , I feel good does not mean that others think good, in fact, I don't think I have any good. "

The reporter became interested: "What about Qu Haiyao? What do you think of him?"

A faint, soft smile appeared on Rong Yi's face. "He is really good, and he is getting better and better. In fact, when we were filming this movie, it was difficult for everyone to get into the movie because of the need to wear a capture device to shoot. It’s very, very difficult to get to the point I want.”

"At that time, Qu Haiyao proposed a new way of entering the play to me. I tried it and thought it was very good. In fact, this way of entering the play turned out to be quite cruel to himself—to let him quickly get out of the It is difficult to switch the emotions of the characters, but I have worked with him so many times, and it is obvious that his ideas and practicality of creation have improved by leaps and bounds compared with before."

The reporter smiled: "Although you are very humble when you talk about yourself, when you talk about Qu Haiyao, you are not stingy with your compliments."

"Of course." Rong Yi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. "I usually can't be objective when evaluating myself. I simply don't think about many things. If I don't think about it, I can't be sure whether I am good or not. Of course, I can't talk nonsense about things I don't understand. But Qu Haiyao, I see now Yes, I know him very well, how good he is, maybe no one in the world knows better than me."

"Are you sure?" The female reporter didn't know if she was a CP fan, but anyway, her eyes radiated a remarkable light.It is easy to dismiss it and said: "I'm not sure, but it must be in the top three."

Later, when Qu Haiyao saw this interview, he was dissatisfied and said: "What is the top three, it is obviously the first, you should be more stubborn!"

Rong Yi pinched his ear: "Do you know what it means to be low-key?"

"I understand. But we need to keep a low profile on movies, why should we keep a low profile on our relationship!"

Lin Qi, who had been listening for a long time, couldn't take it anymore, grabbed a pillow and threw it at Qu Haiyao.

"Okay! You are high-profile! Now you stand under the Arc de Triomphe and announce that you two are married with a loudspeaker! Go! If you don't go, you will be a puppy!"

Qu Haiyao was being hit in the face by the soft pillow, and immediately ran to Rong Yi's side begging for a hug.

"Brother! Nanny Lin called me a puppy!"

Rong Yi knew that he was angry with Nanny Lin, so she was happy to poke Nanny Lin's lung tube together with this little bastard.He hugged Qu Haiyao into his arms and touched the dog's head with a smile, then turned to Lin Qi and threatened, "What? Can't he stand under the Arc de Triomphe and announce our marriage with a loudspeaker?"

Lin Qi was so pissed off.But facing Rong Yi, he dared not speak out. He gritted his upper and lower teeth for a long time, and finally he was discouraged. He said weakly: "If there is such a day, you have to notify me in advance. I still have a lot of preparations here. What to do."

Qu Haiyao let out a shocking laugh in Rong Yi's arms, and Rong Yi couldn't help laughing. Luo Yan yelled at the two heartless mentally handicapped children: "I know how to laugh. If you dare not report in advance, I will really treat you Believe it or not, the two sued and lost their fortune."

"You really think the two of us are stupid." Rong Yi stared, "Don't worry. One day, I will tell you in advance even for my million dollar gift, lest you go bankrupt before the two of us are bankrupt, and you can't pay it." It's our bride price."

Luo Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Rong Yi with a distrustful expression.Rong Yi pouted contemptuously, and threw the pillow that Lin Qi had just thrown towards Luo Yan.

"Don't believe pull it down!"

Of course, the British gaming company still made a lot of money in the end - because this year's European Film Festival's best actor award belongs to Rong Yi and Qu Haiyao at the same time.For the first time in the history of the European Film Festival, a double-yolk egg actor appeared, and even the award presenters were shocked.

In the interview with the jury that was released later, when the chairman of the jury and the Hungarian film director Schudinger mentioned the results of the selection of the double best actor this time, he was a little helpless and relieved: "When the winners of all the awards When the voting has been settled, only the best actor award is pending, because we have seen two rounds of draws in the previous voting."

"These ten or so judges are all experienced and authoritative filmmakers. They are very persistent in their opinions and ideas, so in the end, after three votes, Rong Yi and Qu Haiyao had the same number of votes, ranking among all the candidates. Tied for first place.”

"In the end, I decided to respect this result. This result shows that at least in our jury this year, Rong Yi and Qu Haiyao's performance are on par. And we also need to consider another fact, that is They are originally from the same movie, playing a pair of lovers, their performances are mutual achievements, there would be no equally superb Qu Haiyao without Rong Yi's superb performance, and vice versa."

"Aunt Hawthorn" won three European Film Festival awards including Best Actor, and returned with a veritable reputation.At this time, "Aunt Hawthorn" has not yet been screened in some countries and regions, and the results of the European Film Festival have stimulated another wave of box office.NUERA, which had no expectations at the box office, not only made back its cost, but also roughly doubled its profit.Although for NUERA, who owns a mine at home, it is just a drizzle to double the income of such a low-cost movie, but for Rongyi, who invested in the capital with the mentality of making money at a loss, this dividend can be used for work. Chamber funding is the icing on the cake.

The profit and word-of-mouth have both harvested. After returning to China, NUERA decided to hold a celebration banquet within the crew.Qu Haiyao found out at the celebration banquet that besides a few old acquaintances from the Asian region that they were already familiar with, there were also a large group of Australians from the headquarters.

No wonder they want to book a banquet hall... Qu Haiyao felt a little dizzy looking at the mighty crowd of more than a dozen tables.He has been dealing with NUERA for many years, even longer than Rong Yi has been dealing with NUERA, but there are still many people present at this banquet that he does not know.

At the banquet, the head of NUERA's Asian region, the producer of "Aunt Hawthorn", introduced Donnasser and Raymond to Qu Haiyao and Rong Yi—a man and a woman. They are the public relations directors of NUERA headquarters, And the head of the department responsible for North American channel communication.The reason why they appear here is that the NUERA headquarters is considering applying for the Jinying Award for "Aunt Hawthorn".

"Golden Ying Award?!" Qu Haiyao's eyes widened in surprise.All three-year-olds know that the most important film event in the United States, the "Golden Ying Awards", is the most well-known and most watched film event in the world. The peak of ratings, in the eyes of the public, the Golden Ying Awards is a more beautiful and magnificent film event than a professional film platform such as the European Film Festival. The net worth soared.

But Rong Yi didn't respond.He looked at the PR director Donnasser and asked, "Have you decided to participate?"

"Basically it's settled." The middle-aged woman with red hair nodded. "We have contacted the most experienced Golden Engel Award public relations company in the United States to be responsible for the public relations of the Golden Engel Awards for "Aunt Hawthorn". We will still need your support at that time."

Qu Haiyao looked at Rong Yi, but said nothing.When the two of them were chatting, Qu Haiyao had once heard Rong Yi refer to several high-profile American film and television awards as "rotten street awards". It is an award that needs to be decided through public relations, and he doesn't pay attention to it.

"It's just white people's political means." Rong Yi once said dismissively. “Politicians want to curry favor with minorities, so they promote a film about minorities; if they want gender equality, they promote a feminist film; if they want the government to reduce military spending, they promote an anti-war film.” The movie came out...boring."

In fact, as long as you think about it deeply, you will find that what Rong Yi said is right.The best film of the Golden English Awards every year corresponds to the political situation in the United States that year, while other popular awards that have attracted much attention rely largely on the operation of public relations companies and several giant movies that have a great influence on Hollywood. company tendencies.In the eyes of many Asian filmmakers with pure creative intentions, this kind of film award is of little value, especially for a master like Rong Yi who has already gained both fame and fortune.

But this is just the consideration of Rongyi as a single filmmaker. As a company, NUERA, as an industry leader in the development of new channels and new interface film works, their thinking is more far-reaching and broader.

"Can I ask why you guys thought of competing for the Golden Globe Award?" Rong Yi didn't shy away, and asked Donnasser and Raymond directly.

Donnasser paused for a moment, and then replied: "Unlike traditional film distribution companies, our old business is streaming media, which is a network playback and storage platform. When we first set foot in the film and television production industry, our production was only on the streaming media platform." broadcasted web series and web movies.”

"It has been ten years since we started producing film and television works, but the only one that has truly won any mainstream and professional awards is "Aunt Hawthorn", which is still a theatrical film co-produced by us and you. Only We launched it on our website after it was released in theaters, which is actually contrary to our original intention of making online movies.”

"We have always hoped that the online film and television works produced by the streaming media platform can be recognized by the mainstream industry. Many of our previous works were not good enough, but we failed to integrate into the mainstream production environment as a streaming media. We hope that through The public relations of the Golden Ying Awards this time has established a bridge with the mainstream film and television production industry, so as to better deliver streaming media works to higher-standard platforms.”

Rong Yi fell silent, then looked at Qu Haiyao after a pause, and asked, "What do you think?"

Qu Haiyao's understanding of Rongyi has reached the point where he knows even a strand of Rongyi's hair. He can tell from Rongyi's expression that Rongyi doesn't want to get involved with NUERA's "fighting" at all. Entering the mainstream film circle" plan, so he quickly sang and said: "In fact, NUERA has so many good works, and there is no need to get this kind of recognition at all."

Both Donnasser and Raymond looked towards Qu Haiyao.Qu Haiyao continued to speak with eloquence: "Take the Golden Ying Award as an example. So many people are willing to go to public relations and compete for the Golden Ying Award because the public likes the Golden Ying Award the most. Many people hope to win the Golden Ying Award Award to win the favor of the public. But NUERA has already won the favor of the public, and I don’t think it makes much sense to go for the Kim Ying Award.”

"Besides, the Kim Ying Awards are gods created by the traditional film production circle. I think that with the strength of NUERA, they can create their own gods. There is no need to follow the traditional film circle."

Raymond nodded: "You are also reasonable, but we still want to strive for the integration of different media as much as possible. To be able to obtain the approval of other film production companies and develop broader cooperation with them, This is a good thing for both us and the traditional industry. The development of the industry cannot do without inheritance.”

Qu Haiyao and Rong Yi looked at each other, and Qu Haiyao also saw the agreement in Rong Yi's eyes.Rong Yi thought for a while, then nodded, and said to Donnasser and Raymond: "Okay. The public relations should not have started yet, right? Let us know if necessary, and we will try our best to cooperate with your work."

Both Donnasser and Raymond were very satisfied, and the celebration banquet was successfully concluded.After going back, Qu Haiyao couldn't help asking Rong Yi: "Aren't you not interested in the Golden Ying Award, and don't you want to attend those public relations receptions? Why did you agree so easily?"

Rong Yi rubbed her jawline with her fingers, and said slowly: "I don't want to, but NUERA has helped us a lot after all, and we should help with this. Besides, if we really won a Golden Globe Award There is nothing wrong with coming back, at least we are worth more and earn more, so why not do it."

Qu Haiyao narrowed his eyes half-believingly: "That's right...but why do I always feel that there is some conspiracy in it?"

Rong Yi kicked the slippers in Qu Haiyao's direction: "You're not very old, why do you have so many twists and turns in your mind! Can't you think about me with an upright mind!"

"When I think of you, I can't be upright!" Qu Haiyao threw himself on Rong Yi completely dishonestly, and the two of them got into a mess.
