Chapter 101 Best debut novel
The red carpet of the closing ceremony was much more bleak than the opening ceremony.
A large number of crews participating in the film have left. After all, the hotel accommodation and consumption prices here are really expensive. In the end, only crews with hope of winning the award will be left.
There were also fewer stars on the red carpet of the closing ceremony, but none of the media reporters left, and they were all waiting for the announcement of the final award!
This time, Zhou Yi and Sun Qingtong really walked the red carpet together. Everyone suddenly realized that Zhou Yi, who is neutral, is really unmatched, handsome and beautiful, and director Sun Qingtong is also a very beautiful girl with long legs. The two of them walked together in a cute contrast and coordinated inexplicably, and murdered a lot of films for a while.
After a long process, I enjoyed a sumptuous dinner provided by the official and finally arrived at the final award ceremony.
The award ceremony begins at 8 pm local time on September 9th, and it is exactly 0:00 on September 10th in China.
Lou Xiaoxiao had just finished the last game of PUBG and successfully ate chickens with four teammates, winning the final victory.
Since she returned from the Cologne competition, her popularity has risen sharply again. Although Miss Yiyi has never appeared again, her popularity in the live broadcast room often reaches three million, and there are no shortage of gifts for rewards.
Of course, during this live broadcast, Lou Xiaoxiao turned a blind eye to all the barrage asking about Miss Yiyi’s true identity and true gender and did not answer any answers.
By tonight, the silence of nearly a month can finally end. Instead of ending the live broadcast routinely as usual, she switched to the awards ceremony scene of the Venice Film Festival.
"Tonight, I'll accompany you to watch the award ceremony of the Venice Film Festival!" Lou Xiaoxiao said softly: "There will be someone you are very familiar with to appear on the screen!"
"Wow, it's Miss Yiyi? I didn't expect that Miss Yiyi's real name is Zhou Yi!"
"A Xiao finally spoke. It seems that the answer is about to be revealed?"
"I'm so excited! Could it be that Miss Yiyi wants to win the Venetian Film Queen?"
The barrage instantly became super active. After all, most of the fans in this live broadcast room are the most loyal fans of Miss Yiyi!
During this period, Miss Yiyi disappeared, and A Xiao kept not explaining. In addition, the various positive and negative news coming from time to time really made them very worried, but it seemed that the long torture was finally over?
Miss Yiyi’s true identity is finally coming to light?
It was already late at night, but the popularity of A Xiao’s live broadcast room did not decrease at all. Instead, as more and more water friends gathered to get news, they began to grow slowly.
The award ceremony was held in the auditorium on the main stage of the Venice Film Festival. Zhou Yi and Sun Qingtong's seats were arranged in the middle of the third row, in a very front position.
Venice Film Festival president Alberto Barbera took the lead in walking onto the podium, and all the spotlight fell on him.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Filmmakers and movie lovers from all over the world gathered in Venice. We spent 11 happy days together. This is a feast for the movie and a wonderful festival!"
"But no matter how great the movie is, it will finally come to an end. The 74th Venice Film Festival will end tonight. There is only the final highlight left, that is the award ceremony!"
"It is worth mentioning that at this Venice Film Festival, there will be an unexpected surprise!" Alberto blinked mischievously: "Stay tuned, it will be announced later! Next, our jury members will be invited to appear!"
Nine judges made their debut again under the leadership of the chairman of the jury, Annette Bening. Annette delivered a speech on behalf of the jury: "It is my great honor to be invited to be the chairman of the Venice Film Festival for the first time, but I didn't expect that in this Venice, I have appreciated so many wonderful films and excellent film talents! The selection of each award is a difficult decision. We discussed it carefully together and finally made the most fair evaluation."
"I announce that the award ceremony of the 74th Venice Film Festival has officially begun!"
"The first award, the best debut award!" The youngest of this year's judges, Italian actress Jesmin Rebecca, glanced over the front seats and did not make everyone wait too long. Five seconds later, she revealed the answer: "Hope, director Sun Qingtong!"
If you want to win this award, the first movie you must shoot will be shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival. This threshold can be said to be very high, so the competition is much smaller.
The biggest competitor of "Hope" is "Do Everything". This debut work, shot by Xavier Legrand, is very excellent. The director can easily learn all kinds of techniques in the movie, but he is much more mature than Sun Qingtong.
Therefore, Sun Qingtong didn't expect much of this award. She was ready to return empty-handed. As long as Zhou Yi could win the award, it would be worth it.
But now, when she heard Jesmin shouting her name, she was so surprised that she was a little disbelief and stared blankly ahead.
Zhou Yi quickly pushed her, and then Sun Qingtong realized that she was trotting onto the podium with her long skirt and took over the "Best debut" trophy from Jesmin.
Sun Qingtong took a breath and a warm smile appeared on her face: "It's incredible. I didn't expect the first award to be mine! I just graduated from college, and this is the first movie in my life!"
Sun Qingtong held up the trophy high, and her eyes had become crystal clear and wet: "I want to thank my grandfather, who is my life mentor and gave me too much guidance and encouragement! I want to thank my father and mother, who are very supportive of my work and future life choices and have never interfered with it! I want to thank the audience and judges for their love for "Hope" so much. Without your affirmation, there would be no award!"
"Finally, I want to thank someone for a special thanks!" Sun Qingtong looked at Zhou Yi with a firm look: "It was Zhou Yi. He wrote the script of "Hope" and personally played the heroine. He used his superb performance to support the entire movie, which gave me the possibility of coming to Venice and the trophy in my hand!"
"Thank you very much! This award is the greatest encouragement to me. I will continue to work hard to grow and make better movies!" Sun Qingtong finally bowed deeply to the front, and there were warm applause from the audience.
Sun Qingtong’s acceptance speech was written in Chinese, and there was no difference between “he” and “she”.
"Wow, this is the director of "Hope"? You are young and beautiful, and have long legs!"
"Ah Xiao, your love rival has appeared! Miss Yiyi is afraid she will run away with the young female director!"
"Look at Ah Xiao's expression, there is murderous intent in his eyes!"
Lou Xiaoxiao had been staring at Sun Qingtong just now, envious of her ability to stand with Zhou Yi and stand on this glorious podium.
