In front of the microphone, Xiao Yunhai glanced at Zhao Wanqing below the stage and said, "Dear, I was tricked by the organizing committee. I was forcefully changed from a guest performer to a guest presenter. The problem is that everyone else is paired with a man and a woman, but I'm all alone. We're husband and wife. We'll share blessings and hardships. I think you should come up too. "
"Woo."
As soon as Xiao Yunhai said that, the audience immediately cheered.
"Yun Qingqing's Queen, Unparalleled in the World."
"Yun Huang's Queen, Unparalleled in the World."
Everyone's eyes were on Zhao Wanqing. The cameraman aimed the camera at her.
Zhao Wanqing could only stand up with a smile and walk onto the stage.
"Hubby, I'm so grateful to you. I'll reward you with a big washboard when we get home, "Zhao Wanqing said in a threatening tone as soon as she came up.
"Hahaha." The audience was amused.
Xiao Yunhai said with a grin, "I'm mainly trying to increase your exposure. I'm also here to promote our Celestial Bane. Everyone, answer me. What roles did we play? "
"Zhang Xiaofan, Biyao," the audience answered in unison.
Xiao Yunhai snapped his fingers and said, "See that? Everyone knows about our movie. The effect of this promotion is enough to increase the box office of Celestial Bane by one billion. "
Zhao Wanqing said in annoyance, "That's your goal?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Of course not. I just want to ask if there are any female artists in our company nominated for Best Actress. "
Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said, "I don't think so."
Xiao Yunhai said, "No. There are so many beautiful actresses in our company, but the organizing committee didn't nominate any. Where's the law? "
"Pfft. “
"Hahaha."
"Yun Huang means to look at the face."
Zhao Wanqing said with a smile, "Hubby, did you ask me to come up just to say that? This will make me feel very embarrassed. If I knew, I would've asked Bing Lu or Xue Wei to come up. They are prettier than me. "
Xiao Yunhai quickly replied, "No, you're the most beautiful in my eyes."
"Yi!"
The audience cheered.
Zhao Wanqing said, "Alright, stop fooling around. You've already wasted a lot of time with your performance. If this drags on any longer, the award ceremony will be over. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Alright then. Let's see who the nominees are. "
On the big screen, the highlights of the twelve actresses appeared.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Wow, they all performed very well."
Zhao Wanqing nodded and said, "That's right. Then who will be able to stand out from the twelve top experts from home and abroad? "
Xiao Yunhai tore open the envelope and handed the name list to Zhao Wanqing without even looking at it.
Zhao Wanqing read, "The winner of the Best Actress Award at the third Hua Xia International Golden Bottle Film Festival is Charlotte Lebon."
"Wow!"
"Charlotte, the 24-year-old Golden Goblet Movie Queen."
"This should be considered an upset."
Charlotte's face was filled with surprise and tears welled up in her eyes.
She stood up in disbelief and celebrated with the people around her before walking onto the stage.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing left after handing her the trophy and certificate.
The stage was now Charlotte's, and the two of them seemed to have stolen the limelight.
The Best Actor Award was won by Liang Hui, while the Best Director and Best Film Awards were missed by Hua Xia.
This made Hua Xia's fans very depressed.
Half an hour later, the award ceremony ended.
This time, the Golden Bottle Film Festival's organizing committee held an unprecedented cocktail party.
More than two hundred movie stars toasted each other and chatted happily in groups of three to five.
This kind of opportunity was very beneficial for artists to develop their own connections.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing owned Marvel, one of the eight giants in Hollywood, and Hanhai, the number one in Hua Xia. Naturally, they became the focus of attention.
However, those who dared to talk to them were either friends in the industry, top artists, or bosses of film and television companies. Even first- and second-tier artists could not enter their circle.
"Xiao, when is your Celestial Bane going to be released in Europe and America?" Kree, who was wearing a tuxedo, held a wine glass in his hand and clinked it with Xiao Yunhai.
There were many CEOs and directors from home and abroad. When they heard Kree's words, they all pricked up their ears.
It could not be helped. Xiao Yunhai's Celestial Bane was too domineering. Hua Xia's pre-sales box office reached eight billion USD. It was simply shocking.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Two days later, it will be released in other regions of Hua Xia. It will be released in Europe and America in early May. To be honest, I still don't know if Celestial Bane will be liked by fans in Europe and America. After all, Eastern and Western cultures are very different. "
Kree shook his head and said, "Xiao, your worries are groundless. Ever since Xiao Cui became popular in Europe and America, Hua Xia's Xianxia films have been sought after by fans. It's just that most of them are of poor quality. If Celestial Bane is screened there, I believe the box office won't be worse than 2012. No, it should be much better. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's for the best."
Director Mars, who had been listening to their conversation, walked over and said with a bitter smile, "It seems that I have to adjust the schedule of my action film that will be released next month."
In May, Mars's Hua Xia and America co-production, Life and Death, would be released.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Director Mars, you don't have to do that. It's really hard to say what kind of results Celestial Bane will achieve. I'm not worried about Hua Xia or even Asia, but I don't dare to make any guarantees about Europe and America. "
Mars shook his head and said, "I came to Yanjing yesterday afternoon and went to watch Celestial Bane at night. Although there are many lines in it, I don't understand. However, the extremely shocking scenes and the breathtaking fight were enough to attract European and American fans. Mr. Xiao, I have to admit that no one in the world is your match in such a big production. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Director Mars, you're too kind. I'm not as good as you say."
Kree asked, "Xiao, what are your plans next?"
Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "Rest. I'll take my wife and children on a trip and write a Wuxia novel during that time.
As for film and television work, I haven't thought about it yet. Maybe I'll film a TV series. You know, if a TV series is filmed well, the money it earns is much more than a movie. "
Mars smiled and said, "Just like Prison Break. Hehe, if you don't film, it's a great thing for us movie directors. "
As they were chatting, the chairman of the Golden Goblet Organizing Committee, Shen Qiu, walked over with a smile. Behind him was a middle-aged man in his forties who was not tall.
"Yunhai, thank you for coming to perform at the gala. It's really wonderful."
Xiao Yunhai clinked his glass with him and said with a smile, "No matter how wonderful it is, isn't it still a wedding dress for CCTV? When will the Golden Goblet Awards Ceremony be handed over to private TV stations like us? "
Kree nodded and agreed, "That's right. Chairman Shen, our MGM Grand is also very interested in the Golden Goblet Awards Ceremony. Although America's Oscar Ceremony is a little weak, it still auctioned off 600 million USD this year. With Golden Goblet's status in the world, it can be auctioned off for at least 1 billion USD. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's right. Chairman Shen, why don't you give us a chance to compete fairly? With money, the Golden Goblet Organizing Committee won't have to rely on Hua Xia's Ministry of Culture for funding anymore. "
Every year, the Golden Goblet Organizing Committee would invite more than 300 domestic and foreign filmmakers a month before the awards ceremony. Just this income alone would cost them more than 100 million USD. After all, they were all big shots in the film industry. If they worked hard for a month, it would be unreasonable if they were not given a million USD.
Even so, they still had to announce to the public that they were working for free.
This money was borne by the Ministry of Culture every year. The gala was organized by CCTV, and the advertising fees earned were split between CCTV and the Ministry of Culture. The Golden Goblet Organizing Committee would at most take the money for their hard work.
In the second year, the Organizing Committee still had to ask the Ministry of Culture for funding.
It was very disadvantageous to the independence of the Golden Goblet Organizing Committee.
