Chapter 232 Fighting and Killing? No, It’s About Human Relationships.
Unlike Liu Shishi who always pays attention to influence and is unwilling to get too close to Wei Yang in public to prevent being used by someone with ulterior motives, Tang Yan likes to show her presence around Wei Yang more or less intentionally or unintentionally.
It was not until Wei Yang talked to her that she restrained herself a lot. The only thing that remained the same as before was that she still kept a close watch on Rouba.
Rouba hated her so much that he wanted to borrow a Marco Qin from the anti-Japanese war crew next door to sweep her away...
In early June, Tang Yan, who had been training for more than half a month, officially started filming the scenes of Haitang Duoduo.
However, before Wei Yang and her had a rivalry, the latter had to take a leave to attend the upcoming Magnolia Awards.
A theater in Shanghai
After going to the styling studio to get a styling and wearing haute couture, Wei Yang found out after arriving at the scene that there was really no red carpet for the Magnolia Awards this year.
It can't be said that the styling and clothes were done in vain, after all, they still had to go on stage, but Wei Yang felt that doing this at the Magnolia Awards was really unkind.
He didn't care. He was sure to get a popularity award, and he would have a chance to show his face. He didn't care about the exposure on the red carpet.
But the award presenters or other artists who were nominated but had a hard time winning the awards had limited camera time, so they relied on the red carpet and interviews to show their presence and send out press releases.
With the Magnolia Awards, many people's couture dresses were not in vain.
However, Wei Yang didn't say anything. He saved himself the trouble without the red carpet and went straight into the backstage.
However, he could avoid the red carpet, but he couldn't avoid the social events. As soon as Wei Yang showed up, he immediately socialized with all kinds of people.
The first one was the deputy director of the Magic City TV Station, who was also one of the persons in charge of the Magnolia Awards this time. As soon as he saw him, he came over to greet him and coaxed him a few words.
Hearing the meaning, Wei Yang immediately understood that he really didn't win the Best Actor Award today, but he didn't have much hope in the first place.
"Leader, I'm young, so I still need to learn more."
The deputy director was very pleased and patted Wei Yang on the shoulder: "Little Wei, don't worry, our station will not forget you as a hero."
Although there is a suspicion of empty promises, given the current relationship between Shanghai TV and Wei Yang, as long as there is a suitable opportunity in the future, they will definitely give him a push.
Even if Wei Yang himself is not very interested in the Magnolia Awards this time and does not want to force his way to the top, if he had opened his mouth, Shanghai TV might have really gone all out to support him.
But in this way, Wei Yang owes a big favor, and many things will not be so free in the future.
Especially the "Celebrating Yu Nian" series, Shanghai TV has been thinking about it for more than a day or two.
After that, Wei Yang greeted a circle, such as the head of a certain bureau, some leaders of the local propaganda department of Shanghai, and various people with official identities.
Among them, the closer ones are the vice president and a professor of Shanghai Theatre Academy, who are also one of the judges of the Magnolia Awards, but not in the TV drama unit.
There is also a senior from Shanghai Theatre Academy in the publicity department, and two editors-in-chief of paper media who have frequent cooperation with Blue Whale.
In addition, there are some bosses, investors, producers, directors and so on of film and television companies in Shanghai and its surrounding areas.
From this, we can also see that Boss Wei’s influence in the Shanghai circle is not enough to carry the banner, but he is also a local figure.
Many artists and agents saw Wei Yang and wanted to say hello or show their faces, but later found that they could not get close to him at all.
Even in the later period, after Wei Yang finished a circle of greetings, the only ones who could come forward to talk were veteran artists or first-line popular stars.
Less famous or newcomers, without bosses or well-known agents or artists to lead, can only try their luck to say hello and get a nod, smile, or handshake from Wei Yang.
It’s not that Boss Wei treats people differently. Without someone to introduce, he doesn’t know many people, so how can he interact?
Wei Yang's attitude is relatively good. He at least shakes hands, nods, smiles, and can say a few words if he knows someone. Wen Zhang, who is also a popular young actor, doesn't even smile to many people. He just nods.
This guy was also nominated for the Magnolia Award for Best Actor this year for "Snow Leopard".
Wei, Hu, and Wen, three male stars born in the 1980s who evolved from the new four young actors, are now jointly nominated for Best Actor. The remaining Hu Ge has naturally been criticized by the media.
It's not just the Magnolia Award. This year, Wei Yang brought out the hit "Eastern Palace", and Wen Wen's "Naked Wedding Era" was broadcast last month. It received both good ratings and good reviews, and has secured the position of a powerful young actor.
In comparison, Hu Ge's transition to movies after "Myth" was not smooth, and the performance of the dramas he aired was not impressive, at least not comparable to Wei and Wen.
It's not that Hu Ge was directly left behind.
After all, it has only been a year since the two hits "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" and "Myth" were aired, and the bonus period has not yet passed, so he is far from falling behind.
Today, Hu Ge is still the top young actor in the mainland. Except for Wei Yang and Huang Xiaoming, it is difficult to say that others can surpass him in popularity and popularity. At least Wen Zhang is not as good as him in this aspect.
But popularity is only one of the comprehensive dimensions of an artist. Hu Ge does not want to be a pure idol artist, and often he still has to speak with his works.
The performance of his works is average, and he has not won any important awards. Hu Ge is naturally not strong.
Different from Hu Ge's predicament, Wen Zhang is now full of vigor and energy. Even when he sees Wei Yang, who is more successful in his career, he does not change his arrogant nature.
He is not pretending in front of Wei Yang, but talking about his participation in the screenwriting of "Naked Marriage Era".
He revealed that he plans to be a director in the future, and it feels like he will compete with Wei Yang to see who is more talented.
After all, in the circle, Wei Yang's popularity and appearance are only one aspect. His most valuable thing is his excellent creativity and project operation ability.
No matter how good Wen Zhang's acting skills are, even if he won the Best Actor or Best Actor award, he cannot become a core creator, and he is just an actor who follows orders.
Wen Zhang is naturally unwilling to do so.
In his previous life, he started to work behind the scenes after he became famous. In this life, with the stimulation of Wei Yang, he also wants to prove his ability.
"Very good, looking forward to Director Wen's new work."
Wei Yang was not angry, but sent his blessings, which made Wen Zhang a little embarrassed, and he made up a few soft words later.
After Wen Zhang left, Da Mimi, who had been staring at this side, finally squeezed over and glanced at Wen Zhang who was leaving.
"You have a really good temper. I see this kid has a sad face, but you are willing to pay attention to him."
Da Mimi still has the ability to read people's expressions. Although she didn't hear clearly, she felt that Wen Zhang was slightly dissatisfied.
"This guy is famous for his bad temper, especially with that godfather, it's even worse, you should be careful."
"Don't worry, he doesn't dare to confront me."
Da Mimi advised him a few words, but Wei Yang didn't take it to heart. Others might be afraid of Wen Zhang's background, but for Wei Yang who has already established his momentum, this is the case.
Speaking of which, this buddy is really awesome. Zhao Baogang became famous in the Beijing circle with "Struggle", and he is good friends with Teng Huatao. He has a wife who is a native of Shanghai, so he can be considered to have squeezed into the Shanghai circle. His godfather Li Lianjie is a big shot in the Hong Kong circle, and he has obtained a lot of Hong Kong circle resources. He is also from Xishi, Shaanxi Province, and can get in touch with the Northwest circle.
The film and television circle can participate in several well-known regional circles, and even many can be deeply involved. It can be said that he has a good hand.
If Boss Wei had his conditions, not to mention playing in the entertainment circle, he could also borrow a lot of momentum, and at the bottom, he could also pull a lot of connections to back him up.
As a result, this guy played a good hand badly. He has a perverse and domineering personality and offended too many people. As a result, a black spot that is not fatal was used to kill him, and not many people saved him.
"Let's not talk about him. It's okay, Teacher Yang. He is very popular now. We will make a lot of money by asking you to guest star."
Da Mimi proudly lifted her hair: "I regret it a little bit. The offer is too low."
"Are you going to regret it?"
Wei Yang touched his chin: "We Blue Whale have contact with many paparazzi accounts, and we also know the water army. Do you want to help you add some heat?"
"No, no, no, I was wrong, good brother, I was wrong."
Da Mimi came to beg for mercy. She wore a bright red low-cut long skirt today. Her personal advantages were very obvious. She was close to him and acted coquettishly, and Wei Yang was a little dizzy.
It seemed that she felt Wei Yang's gaze. Da Mimi was not annoyed but happy, and consciously showed her heart to Wei Yang.
"Female hooligan."
Wei Yang shook his head and could only flee in embarrassment. It was not that he did not want to watch, but there were too many people at the scene, so he had to pay attention to his image.
Looking at Wei Yang's "fleeing" figure, Da Mimi snorted with some pride.
You bastard, now you know my charm!
After leaving Da Mimi, Wei Yang chatted with Chen Su again. The other party's role in the crew of "Celebrating Yu Nian" had been completed, but he ran into her again at the Magnolia Awards just a few days after leaving.
"Sister Su, congratulations in advance."
The latter was nominated for the Magnolia Best Actress for "Iron Pear Flower", and was also the biggest favorite for this year's Best Actress.
Chen Su knew Wei Yang's connections, and her eyes lit up when she heard the words, and asked in a low voice.
"Did you hear the letter?"
"No."
Wei Yang shook his head, but he knew the ending of his previous life, and Chen Su's competitors were indeed not a big threat.
There is no need to say much about the drama "Palace" by Da Mi Mi. It was criticized enough for being nominated. Wang Luodan's performance in "God of War" was limited by the subject matter, and the chance of winning the award was not high.
The performance of the ninth girl Deng Cuiwen in "Heroines of the Sea of Love" was impeccable, but the chance of winning the mainland TV drama for Hong Kong TV series was too small.
It's like no matter how popular a mainland TV series is in Hong Kong, no matter how outstanding the actors' performances are, they basically can't win the TVB TV drama.
The only remaining threat to Chen Su is Teacher Sarina from "My Children, My Family".
However, Teacher Sa has won the Magnolia TV drama award before, and the popularity of this drama is slightly lower. "Iron Pear Flower" has the best comprehensive conditions such as popularity, performance, and region, and the probability of winning the award is more than 65%.
The most important thing is that Chen Su has just signed a contract with Shanghai Shangshi Films, which is a state-owned media company, with Shanghai TV and Shanghai Propaganda behind it.
The aforementioned "Du Lala's Promotion" and "Heroines of the Sea" were nominated largely because they were produced, invested, and distributed by Shangshi.
Chen Su is a newly signed artist of Shangshi. She has the right conditions in all aspects, and her chance of winning the award has increased by at least 30%.
Don't look at Chen Su pretending to be stupid now. I guess she already has an idea in her mind. Maybe this TV Queen is one of her chips to join Shangshi.
Wei Yang sighed and sighed in his heart: "Awards have never been about fighting and killing, but about human relationships..."
