Chapter 435 Magnolia in a Mess

For this year's Magnolia Awards, if I were to choose one of the hottest and most popular dramas, it would definitely be "Let's Get Married" aside from the so-called "Qing Yu Nian 3".

This drama is really popular. Last year, the satellite TV ratings were 2.08, ranking among the top three in the year. The eight CCTV ratings were 3.02, ranking second in the national ratings.

It is no exaggeration to say that this drama can be said to be the most popular TV drama in the second half of 2013.

If "Qing Yu Nian 3" and "Mufu Feng Yun" hadn't crossed paths in January this year, its popularity would have continued for a while.

Therefore, this drama has attracted much attention and has been shortlisted for multiple awards. It is also the drama with the most nominations this year.

Gao Yuanyuan is not only nominated as a queen of TV dramas, but also has unlimited fame.

You must know that although she is considered a front-line star with abundant resources, she has not had any outstanding works in recent years. Even Director Chen's "Search", the actual performance is not satisfactory.

Therefore, his position in the circle is a bit embarrassing. He can barely be regarded as a big flower, but he is at the bottom. His actual popularity and performance are not as good as those strong 85 flowers.

This time "Let's Get Married" made her feel proud.

Even though it is not the biggest favorite in the movie, it has become a hot spot for publicity like Liu Shishi, and it has been compared with several other finalists.

Although "Let's Get Married" has received a lot of exposure, "Parents' Love" and "Mufu Feng Yun" are the ones that are most favored by the outside world.

Especially "Parental Love" has an average CCTV ratings of over 2.6 and an excellent reputation. It has a Douban score of 9.4 and is known as one of the best period dramas in the past decade.

This drama needs to have good results, good reputation, and popularity. It can be said that this drama

The male protagonist Guo Tao and the female protagonist Mei Ting are also the biggest favorites after viewing this year's Magnolia Awards. It's not an overwhelming advantage, but they are also the absolute frontrunners.

"The Storm in the Woods" is not bad either. It is a CCTV drama with a rating of over 8 on Douban and a ratings of over 3.

Except that its popularity and influence are inferior to "Let's Get Married" and it is not as popular as this drama, it is slightly stronger in other aspects.

Therefore, in this screening, Mei Ting takes the lead, Gao Yuanyuan and Liu Shishi are evenly matched, and Qin Hailu and Sun Niangniang are regarded as foils.

However, compared to Mei and Gao, Liu Shishi's expression was very calm, because she knew early on——

I have no chance!

Wei Yang's channel is not a joke, and Bai Magnolia cannot play with him. She will inform him in advance of any situation.

If Wei Yang is not satisfied with the interests involved, he can negotiate to reach a point acceptable to both parties.

Don't think this operation is exaggerated. Regional awards such as the Magnolia and Golden Eagle Awards have a lot of tricks.

Chen Su previously won an award for "Tie Li Hua", partly because she joined a company under Magic City Radio and Television beforehand.

There is also the incident of Dili Rouba in her previous life. To put it bluntly, it is just that Jiaxing and his family defected to Hunan Province and Taiwan. The two sides cooperated closely, and in exchange they were promoted to the Golden Eagle.

It's just that the timing was too bad, the quality of the work was too bad, and the performance was not up to par, which led to overturning and being ridiculed by the crowd.

Just imagine, if it were a decent work that blocked the mouths of some passers-by, Dili's Rouba would be the first Golden Eagle Grand Slam queen born in the 90s.

Not as good as the little yellow duck, it is still firmly in the second tier of 90 flowers, and can even step on the 85 flowers without a trophy.

So the water here is very deep. It cannot be said that all rewards are exchanges of interests, but there are indeed many saucy operations.

This year's Magnolia Award has already been confirmed by Sun Niangniang. This is because she returned to the Shanghai circle and followed up with a series of bundled cooperation with Modutai.

From now on, Sun Niangniang's TV series will basically be related to Shanghai Circle Capital or Magic City TV.

If Liu Shishi wanted to fight, he would have to come up with similar conditions, which was obviously unacceptable to Wei and Liu.

Therefore, Liu Shishi already knew that she would not be able to win the award. If it hadn't happened to be a live broadcast on PPTV, she might have found an excuse not to come even if she accompanied Wei Yang to support and return the favor.

Because of this, Liu Shishi sympathized with Mei Ting and Gao Yuanyuan very much.

She has experienced it too, and knows what it feels like to have her full expectations dashed with cold water.

Wei Yang looked at her eyes and thought she was unhappy about being cut off, so he comforted her in a low voice.

"I didn't interfere this time. On the one hand, I wanted to give Modutai a face. On the other hand, Mei Ting's advantage is too great. Except for her, anyone who wins the award will arouse criticism. I don't want you to suffer these turmoils."

Winning an award is not difficult for Wei Yang, especially the white magnolia at his doorstep.

If he wants to win, even if the "Celebrating More Than Years" trilogy is a TV drama from Hunan Province, he can still win.

He, a big boss in the Shanghai circle, is really no joke!

But Wei Yang has been reluctant to take action. One reason is that there is no need to force his way to the top, the other reason is that he does not want to be too pushy, and the other reason is that he wants to settle down.

"Celebrating More Than Years" is a fun online drama, and it is more of a comedy. The overall style is relatively relaxed. The probability of winning the award is low. If the weak defeats the strong, it will easily cause controversy.

In addition, Wei Yang is too young, not yet 30 years old. The acting career of male actors is much longer than that of female actors, so there is no need to be so sharp all the time.

Before, he became the youngest visionary to win the Golden Eagle Award, which was enough for his attention. If he wins Magnolia with a bang, he will steal all the limelight and easily make people hate him.

So after a few years of slowing down, I suffered two setbacks, found a suitable project, and it was a matter of course, and I became the King of Visions.

The same is true for Liu Shishi. He was fierce enough in the Golden Eagle Grand Slam before, and he has dominated the same year since then.

But the Golden Eagle Awards and the Magnolia Awards are different. The former can rely on popularity, while the latter still depends on professional level.

Liu Shishi is now very popular, and there are countless people watching her. If she steps on Meiting to get to the top regardless of the controversy, she will be easily attacked by the crowd.

The gain does not outweigh the loss!

Because Liu Shishi can completely adopt a safe method and come up with a good work later. As long as the nominees are not particularly strong, she can get to the top smoothly.

Among them, the previous failures also provide a good public opinion foundation. The industry and the outside world attach great importance to the number of nominations.

In her previous life, Xiao Zhao was like this. The previous nominations were all used as a cushion, and it didn’t matter whether she won the award or not.

When she has the opportunity to rush for the award, the cushion in front can be transformed into a boost.

Everyone thinks that Zhao Liying has failed enough times before. This is not a bad performance, and it’s time for her to be perfect once.

It can be said that Zhao Liying’s public relations this time are very powerful, and she has created a good public opinion environment for herself. It can influence the judges, prevent passers-by in the middle, and cheer up fans.

Once she wins the award, even if there is a little controversy, it will be overwhelmed by public opinion, and even push the value of her award to the peak.

It's a pity that she didn't win the award in the end, and all her calculations were in vain, but this method can be learned from.

"Parents' Love" is too good, and it can compete for the top 100 best Chinese TV series in the future. Liu Shishi doesn't need to fight it head-on, and can wait for the soft persimmon behind.

"I know."

Liu Shishi also heard these words from Wei Yang's analysis, and she knew what was going on. She smiled and explained her situation.

"I'm not unwilling. Teacher Mei Ting did act better than me, but I just think it's unfair."

Wei Yang didn't say anything. This is the world. When he was young, he was still angry, but now he has long been accustomed to it, and even he is one of them.

But he still didn't think it was right, so he hesitated and made a suggestion.

"If PPTV becomes bigger, we can also organize an award for film and television dramas, and try to make it fair."

This must be done, and it is also a way to spread the platform's self-influence. LeTV and iYouku have similar awards. PPTV is on the right track, and this is also necessary.

"Boss Jia is too stingy. The awards they give are basically dramas from their own websites. If I do it, I will expand it to the entire network, regardless of which platform it is broadcast on."

The distinction between regions or platforms and factions is one of the biggest reasons for the unfairness of major awards.

If we can ignore this, fairness will be raised immediately, at least better than the awards held by various websites now.

"Aren't you afraid of doing this? If the project of our website doesn't win the award, we will lose face."

"Don't worry about it. No one in Blue Whale will be afraid of competing for quality and results. If we really get zero points, it means we are not as good as others. We will clean up from top to bottom, and we will not pretend to be a calf."

Wei Yang has enough confidence in this regard. Although Blue Whale has cheats, its hard skills are also among the best in the industry.

I can't guarantee that I will win every year, but I won't be so miserable that I won't win a single prize...

The two chatted in the audience, and the award ceremony on the stage was also carried out in an orderly manner.

"Let's Get Married" performed better than expected, winning the Silver Award for Best TV Series and Best Director in a row. Another best performer was "A Good Man", which won the Best Screenwriter and Best Actor.

"Parents' Love", which was favored by the outside world, didn't win any important awards.

Even Wei Yang didn't expect this!

In advance, he only knew that Liu Shishi would not win the Best Actress Award, but he didn't say who would win the Best Actress Award and the Magnolia Award.

It was still Wei Yang who guessed the situation of Sun Niangniang based on his memories of his previous life and his own connections and intelligence in the Shanghai circle.

But apart from this big controversy, Wei Yang didn't care much about other awards in his previous life and this life.

So when he learned the specific list this time, even though he was mentally prepared, Wei Yang was still a little surprised.

"It's so ugly!"

It's embarrassing that Meiting lost to Sun Niangniang's "Hot Mom". How can Wang Zhiwen's performance in "The Good Man" be better than Guo Tao in "Parents' Love".

That's because of Wang Zhiwen's qualifications and strength, otherwise the controversy would not be low.

The best director is even more ridiculous!

"Let's Get Married" is a good drama, but the quality and connotation are really not excellent. It is largely supported by the male and female protagonists.

The director of the film can win "Parents' Love", which is equivalent to the Chinese national football team shouting 3:0 to South Korea to avenge WBG...

The operation of the Magnolia Awards is so outrageous that even several winners feel a little sympathetic.

The director of "Let's Get Married" hardly gave a speech for the award, but instead said a few words for Huang Haitao.

Sun Niangniang simply didn't show up on the grounds of pregnancy, and her husband Deng Chao "ate a gigolo" on her behalf, which can be regarded as breaking a small unspoken rule of the Magnolia Awards, and still won the award even if she didn't show up.

But whether Sun was really pregnant and inconvenient, or just too embarrassed to come, only she knew.

The entire award ceremony, in Wei Yang's opinion, could be described in four words -

A mess!

Fortunately, there was a conservation campaign this year, and no award ceremony banquet was held, otherwise Wei Yang really doubted how many people would come to support.

"Congratulations."

After the ceremony, Wei Yang saw Deng Chao and congratulated him. Seeing that there were no outsiders around, the latter smiled bitterly.

"This award is hot to hold."

OK!

Wei Yang understood. It seems that Empress Sun didn't want to take this award, or she wanted to take it but found it troublesome. She was conflicted. No wonder she didn't come in person.

In fact, Empress Sun was also holding back. The "Legend of Zhen Huan" was very popular back then, but it didn't win the award.

This time, it might be considered as the compensation for the Magnolia Awards.

As a result, she ran into a tough opponent "Parents' Love", and she was also a congenitally deficient "Hot Mom", which was asking for trouble.

Wei Yang patted Deng Chao on the shoulder and pouted at Liu Shishi: "I'll tell you in advance. If Shishi's fans have a problem, it's not us. Don't be offended. We will try our best to suppress it."

Deng Chao couldn't even smile bitterly now. How could he forget this?

If they won against Meiting, passers-by would not accept it!

If they won against Liu Shishi, I'm afraid the little lions would not be happy either!

Losing to "Parents' Love" was what they deserved, and losing to "Let's Get Married" was also reasonable, even though Qin Hailu was a powerful actor + a serious drama, and had her own advantages.

Only Sun Niangniang's "Hot Mom" ​​cannot compare with "Mu Mansion" in any aspect, it's strange that fans are convinced.

In today's entertainment industry, Xiaoshi's fighting power dare not be called the best, but it is not much different.

If they really start to criticize, Deng Chao and his fans combined are no match, not to mention Gao Yuanyuan's fans and passers-by netizens.

"If it doesn't work, you two can pretend to be dead."

Wei Yang doesn't sympathize with Deng Chao. After all, the Best Actress is in his pocket. If he really doesn't want it, he will refuse it sternly. He doesn't believe that Magnolia can force him to give it.

Since he has won the award, he can only bear the negative public opinion because of it.

"She can pretend, but I can't."

Deng Chao had a headache, and Wei Yang also reacted: "By the way, your "Breakup Master" will be released soon."

"I came to you just to ask you to come to the premiere."

"Breakup Master" has Wei Yang's investment, and Deng Chao made this invitation with confidence.

"What date is the premiere?"

"At the end of this month, on the 27th."

Wei Yang calculated his schedule and didn't give a definite answer. He could only say that he would try to arrange it. If he couldn't show up, he would record a VCR.

Liu Shishi enthusiastically agreed to support her good sister Da Mimi. She had a limited role in "Nirvana in Fire" and her schedule was much freer than Wei Yang.

With Liu Shishi's promise, Deng Chao was satisfied with the idea of ​​hyping up the sisterhood of the two beauties in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy". They chatted for a few more words, and before he left, his cell phone rang.

After answering the phone, his face darkened after a while. When Wei Yang asked about it, the latter looked depressed.

"Meiting fired on Weibo."

Wei Yang opened his phone and saw that Mei Ting's Weibo was indeed a bit weird, and the words "hehe" were written on his face.

Looking down, it's no wonder that he was angry. Before the award ceremony, he posted a Weibo specifically, expressing his confidence in "Parents' Love". As a result, he was slapped in the face and felt unfair. No matter how good his temper was, he couldn't stand it.

"Brother, bear with it, the storm is coming."

Liu Shishi was kind and added: "Go back and tell Sister Li to stop looking at her phone, don't get pregnant."

It's no wonder that the two of them, who were originally a little depressed, felt much better.

Boss Wei was still thinking about whether to have another indulgent meal today, but Liu Shishi had already started looking for Meituan recommendations...
