"The winner of the 53rd Silver Bear Award is' Blind Shaft ', Li Yang..."
The audience burst into thunderous applause again. The young director walked onto the stage as if he was sleepwalking.
Wang Baoqiang was so excited that he was in a daze. His first film had won an international award. It was hard for others to understand his feelings.
"Brother … Brother Qin, we won an award. Our movie won an award!"
George, who was at the side, was surprised. Neither of the two Chinese directors returned empty-handed. He also wanted to win an award, but what should he do?
After returning home from the Berlin Film Festival, George Clooney could already imagine how the American media would ridicule him, an actor who did not do his job properly.
"Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" had passed the rigorous European film festival test. The reviews had praised the characters, but the plot was ordinary.
Director George's tears did not affect the Chinese compatriots who were celebrating in advance. Even Director Zhang Yimou was in a good mood.
Yes, Chinese filmmakers needed new blood. As the leader of Chinese filmmakers, as long as he was in the film industry, he would continue making films that he wanted to express.
There were people who were ready to go, people who were happy, and people who were unperturbed. All kinds of people gathered in the hall of the grand ceremony, listening to the host give the only golden bear to the crew of "Between the Mortal Worlds."
The film, which had risen to fame because of the war in Afghanistan, had won a thrilling and lucky award.
That night, the moonlight shone like the little bear in Qin Guan's hand. After the ceremony, all the noise and exaggeration returned to its original place.
Qin Guan slept soundly in his room. His agent, Sister Xue, couldn't fall asleep for a long time as she stared at the trophy in the box.
There was a lot of follow-up work waiting for her. Photos of Qin Guan on the red carpet and the trophy were sent to the American post-production team as soon as possible.
Qin Guan's official Weibo account was updated as soon as he won the award. The other media in Germany didn't spread the news as fast as they could.
Because the media knew when to release the news would attract more attention. A piece of news that could gain a lot of space naturally had to be published in the morning newspaper.
The reporters sent to Berlin were all from big websites. The news from smaller websites might not be as accurate as Qin Guan's official blog.
A few days ago, when he had updated his blog about the Berlin Award Ceremony, there had been nothing but blessings from his fans and ridicule from his haters.
Some said that he was just a bystander, some said that he accompanied the Crown Prince in his studies, and some even said that he was the best actor at finding news for himself.
Attending the Berlin Film Festival was a good way to gild his reputation. Maybe the news would spread that Qin Guan had been defeated in Berlin after all.
The true fans were very calm in such a situation. They ignored the group of anti-fans who were jumping up and down and continued to discuss among themselves.
No one knew which one of them spoke first, but it was followed by a chorus of agreement.
"Actually, I don't care whether Qin Guan wins the award or not. I just want to see his photos on the red carpet. Can I tell you that I have all his photos from the Oscars and the Cannes Film Festival?"
"By the way, I'm his Chinese fan. I have a photo of him on the red carpet at the Silver Eagle Awards. Do you want to exchange it with me?"
"Of course! Let's exchange them! "
As soon as this statement came out, it was instantly echoed by thousands of fans.
"What do you think I'm waiting for? I'm here to see his face! "
"I want to see the design of his Armani Haute Couture!"
"As long as I see his handsome photos, I can have a good night's sleep!"
Just as they thought that they would have to wait until the next day for the blog to be updated, the blog in front of them suddenly refreshed.
The entire layout of the official blog was changed to the Berlin Film Festival's Silver Bear Trophy.
In the most eye-catching place of the instant message, as well as the blog update section of the main section, there was already an article that was more than a thousand words long.
"Qin Guan has won the Best Actor Award at the Berlin Film Festival after the Cannes Film Festival."
The text below was accompanied by a high-definition photo, which was clearly displayed in front of the onlookers.
"Ahhh, what am I seeing? Qin Guan won the Best Actor Award at the Berlin Film Festival! "
"Great Qin! Double Best Actor Award!"
"Let's look at the photos! He's so handsome! "
"Well, let's put Best Actor aside for now. Can anyone tell me if the black pattern on the Armani shirt is to show off its presence? It's so sexy! "
"Qin Guan is so cute with the teddy bear!"
The anti-fans sitting in front of the computer were completely silenced. In an instant, they all disappeared. Among them, the die-hard anti-fan, Wood, once again sprayed water on the newly bought computer screen.
The name "Elephant" was written on the VHS tape next to his desk. There were only tens of thousands of copies in the United States. Within an hour of Qin Guan winning the Best Actor Award, all the tapes had been sold out on Netflix.
As for Wood, he was also one of these contributors. It was just that he had purchased it a few days earlier than usual.
He had been waiting for Qin Guan to return from Berlin empty-handed, so he could analyze the flaws of Qin Guan's performance in the film "Elephant". Then he would go to the website of the arrogant Chinese actor and make fun of him for being a showbiz Best Actor.
Unfortunately, all the work had become a joke. Qin Guan was the only actor who had won an award in "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind."
This was enough to prove Qin Guan's ability. It seemed that his strategy of using acting skills to defeat his enemies had failed.
Wood burst into tears. How much money had I spent on Qin Guan?
He had spent $10 on a movie ticket, $4.99 on a VHS tape and a set of Qin Guan's photos, which had been distributed by Qin Guan's fan association.
It was said that a limited edition Citizen album with his autograph had been sold for 100 dollars each. There was still a high demand for it, but there was no market for it.
Wait! Wood! Are you crazy? Are you still thinking about how to buy a photo of your enemy?
Chinese people are really the reincarnation of wizards … I'll just go and calm down.
