Chapter 322 Big and small, double yellow Seeing that Xu Kun became silent after listening, Zhang Guoli also sat there leisurely sipping tea, adhering to the principle of "I will not move unless the enemy moves". Xu Kun struggled for a while, but finally decided to act according to the original plan. As the saying goes, a man without faith cannot stand. Since he had already expressed in front of Zhang Guoli that he would give up the Most Popular Actor Award. If we recycle it again, it would seem too petty. Our brother Kun has always been an open-minded person, so he gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what, since the Golden Eagle is now promoting the 'Best Performing Arts Award', then I will choose him! Uncle Zhang, as for withdrawing from the 'Most Popular Award', let's..." "Haha~" Zhang Guoli suddenly laughed and interrupted him, putting down his teacup and said, "I was right about you. You are the one who can take on and let go. You are the one who can accomplish great things. You should be the one to receive the Most Popular Award. Only you are the most suitable one!" This confused Xu Kun again. Originally he was the one who wanted to withdraw from the group, how come it suddenly became Zhang Guoli's turn to withdraw? But Zhang Guoli said seriously: "It's not that I want to give in to you, it's just that this award is too hot to handle for me."
"It's hot? What do you mean?" "The root of the problem is that the Golden Eagle Awards are pushing for the 'Best Performance Award', but they didn't make it in the previous two sessions, so this time they plan to remove the winner of the 'Most Popular Actor Award' from the 'Audience Favorite Actor Award'. Without official endorsement, the value of the 'Most Popular Award' has dropped further, which is why Li Youbin was not selected for this award. If I won the award, the situation would be quite embarrassing. Although you are famous enough now, you are still a junior in the acting field after all. After winning this award, there is no problem for you to call yourself the "Best Actor". At most, he, Lee Yoo-bin, is a double-awarded TV King, and you are a single-awarded TV King." What a mess! Xu Kun now has a deeper understanding of the core of the award distribution, so it is no wonder that there are some controversies every year. However, Xu Kun already understood the reason why Zhang Guoli stepped down and gave way to others. Teacher Zhang didn't actually have any outstanding works this year. If he won the 'Most Popular Award', then this Most Popular Award would really become a 'Popularity Award'. Given his status in the industry, if he was removed from the list of official awards, he would only get an award from Hunan Satellite TV, which would not be a good thing. It would be better to help Xu Kun, which would both show his favor and avoid embarrassment. At this time, Zhang Guoli suddenly laughed and said, "If we two work hard together and make up for the official 'Audience's Favorite Actor' award, then it's hard to say who will win. Although the organizing committee mainly promotes the 'Best Performing Arts Award', the outside world clearly recognizes more people as giving the 'Most Popular Award'. This…… Xu Kun felt that the chances were slim. Since the organizing committee wanted to promote the 'Best Performing Arts Award', how could they allow such a situation to occur? "Everything depends on human effort. The organizing committee is also in a mess. Besides, they gave it in the previous two sessions. If they don't give it this time, wouldn't it be like discriminating against a great director like you?" Zhang Guoli smiled proudly and said, "That's why I said you are the most suitable. If it were me, it would be hard to compete for it. After all, I won the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor in 98, and it would be easy to be criticized if I made a scene." That's indeed the case. As someone who has already won an award, it is hard to say anything about Zhang Guoli even if he only received a watered-down 'Most Popular Award' - people might even feel that he is being taken advantage of because he hasn't produced any outstanding works recently. But Xu Kun is different.
He is a newcomer nominated for the first time, and he is a well-known director. His film "Zhu Yuanzhang" is also quite impressive. You can make reforms to the Golden Eagle Awards, but isn't it a bit unreasonable and too targeted to target Director Xu, who won the award for the first time? Thinking about it this way, the leader of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles might have had this consideration in mind when he asked me to voluntarily withdraw from the "Most Popular Award". It’s deep, the water is really deep! After agreeing with Zhang Guoli's conclusion, the two finally decided that Zhang Guoli would give up the reduced "Most Popular Award" in exchange for the "Audience Favorite Award" which has official endorsement but the lowest recognition for Best Actor. While Xu Kun is aiming for the 'Most Popular Award', he is also striving to get an 'Audience Favorite Award' as well - if this happens, the biggest possibility is that the organizing committee will have to hold their noses and admit that both of them are this year's Best Actor. Of course, it is also possible that they directly announced that Lee Woo-bin is the Best Actor [this is how Wen Zhang lost the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor in 2012]. However, doing so would still greatly offend the new and famous director Xu Kun. So the chance of a double yolk egg is higher. The one who would be embarrassed at that time would be Li Youbin. After all, it is one thing for the organizing committee to promote it, but whether the outside world recognizes it is another. Compared with the 'Best Performing Arts' which has a shallow foundation, the outside world still recognizes the combination of 'Most Liked' + 'Most' more. But Li Youbin couldn't say anything. After all, everyone admits that you have good acting skills, but you still insist on competing with young people for "popularity". Is this appropriate? [Note: It is nonsense to say that the protagonist is competing with Lee Yoo-bin for the Best Actor award. Those who claim to abandon the book really don't understand these awards. Upsets and controversies are not new things. Of the three major awards that year, the 06 Golden Eagle Awards changed its rules again and insisted on promoting the 'Best Performing Arts Award', and gave this award to Li Youbin. The 'Most Popular Award', which was originally used as a criterion for selecting the Best Actor, was given to Zhang Guoli. This has led to some controversy surrounding Lee Yoo-bin's Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor. The 07 Feitian Award had a double yolk, with Li Youbin and Wang Wufu tied for first, which was also controversial - but the 05 Feitian Award also had a double yolk, so the controversy was not that big. As for the annual Magnolia Awards... in 06, the Magnolia Awards went crazy and gave the award to a foreign TV series. In 07, they re-selected domestic TV series, and "Drawing Sword" was no longer eligible to participate. 】 In the following period, Xu Kun watched "Night Banquet" as the crowd did, and accepted media interviews verbatim. During this period, I also met Ning Hao. This guy actually got a big gold chain and gained a lot of weight. He looked like he wanted to walk sideways... Well, actually he was walking sideways, after all, the space between the seats in the cinema does not allow you to walk normally. He is really excited now. With an investment of 300 million and a box office of over 3600 million, the expansion coefficient is twelve times, which is enough to support the expansion of his heart. However, in front of Xu Kun, Ning Hao was still a little behind. After all, the box office revenue of the two differed by three times. The scene of the two shaking hands at the premiere has consumed countless film reels. The most representative headline of the report the next day was "Genius Director VS 30-year-old Unique, Who is the Next Wave?!" However, Xu Kun had already returned to Hengdian at this time, and next he wanted to finish filming "The Escort" in a down-to-earth manner. As for the Golden Eagle Awards, just leave it to Zhang Guoli and Huayi to handle it. Anyway, the minimum guarantee is a small Best Actor award. It would be best if there are two yellow cards, but if not, Xu Kun won't be at a loss. Unfortunately, the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop. All his operations were carried out in secret, and the outside world hardly got any news of them. However, the competition for the Golden Eagle Goddess was in full swing. As the man behind the Teddy Sisters, Director Xu was naturally besieged by major media. These people have gone to great lengths to the extent of disrupting the filming of the crew. Fortunately, the weather has turned cooler. If it were still hot, Xu Kun might have followed the footsteps of other big directors and cursed at the reporters or even attacked them.
