As night fell, the star-studded Lugano Film Festival officially began.
The hosts were two well-known hosts from Switzerland. The male host was humorous and funny, while the female host was beautiful and sexy. When the two of them walked on stage together, it was a beautiful scene.
The filmmakers below the stage applauded enthusiastically under the host's words.
At the beginning, the host introduced the eighteen films that had been nominated and some filmmakers who had been specially invited.
After a short joke, the host introduced two filmmakers to the stage as guests.
Usually, the awards that were revealed at the beginning were not very popular, and the biggest suspense would usually be revealed at the end.
The first to be announced was the Special Mention Award, which was a German film.
The director of the film went on stage to receive the award and gave a short speech.
The second to be announced was the Catholic Humanitarian Award, which was an American film about religious beliefs.
The third award was for two films, a Spanish film and a French film.
After the two directors went on stage, they congratulated each other humorously after winning the award. The two of them spoke one after another as if they were performing a crosstalk and gave a speech together.
The fourth was the Audience's Choice Award, which was an American light comedy film. It was a comedy film that had done well at the box office in Europe and the United States this year.
After this award was given out, it was the Best Newcomer Award this year.
This award was given to some young directors who were directing movies for the first time, as a form of encouragement.
Hearing the host announcing the award, Ling Yan subconsciously glanced at Gu Weiwei.
With her qualifications, she should be the one to receive this award.
This award was announced by a veteran filmmaker from the jury. The filmmaker, Bach, was a German with curly blond hair and a beard. When he got on the stage, he praised the winner in fluent English.
"I think this winner must be God's favorite. She is very beautiful, talented and cute. I want to give her all the trophies today."
"Actually, if it weren't for her young age, I would have given her the Best Director Award. But after giving it to her, some people won't get any awards, so we have to give her the Best Newcomer Award."
…
After a long speech, Bach smiled mysteriously and opened the card with the winner's name.
"It seems that everyone is tired of listening to me. Let's invite our lovely winner up on stage to receive her award."
"Please welcome … the lovely Weiwei, Mu Weiwei."
Gu Weiwei stood up amidst the congratulatory applause. The lights shone on her as she walked to the stage with a smile.
After going on stage, she politely hugged Bach.
"Thank you for your compliment."
Bach gave her the trophy and said to the audience.
"Sleepless is a very good movie and Miss Mu Weiwei is also a very good and dedicated filmmaker."
"There's a saying in Hua that goes, 'the new generation excels the old'. So, old guys below the stage, if you don't work hard, you'll be beaten to death by her on the beach."
…
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience roared with laughter.
Bach was an internationally renowned filmmaker. In recent years, after he stopped directing movies, he often acted as a judge for the International A Film Festival.
Although he was humorous, he had always been strict when it came to judging movies.
