Chapter 625: Golden Goblet Award Winner, Young Master Wei Is Born

On June 10, the 23rd Magnolia Awards was held in Shanghai.

Yin Tao shattered Da Mimi and Tang Yan's dreams of winning Best Actress, and Sun Yizhou and Wang Kai were no match for Zhang Ze.

"Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" was crowned the best actor and best actress, becoming the biggest winner of this year's Magnolia Awards!

Apart from the complaints from fans, this selection was still recognized by most people.

Boss Wei still had some regrets. He was still thinking about which fans were dissatisfied and would cyberbully him, and he would take the opportunity to retreat for a few months to take care of the children at home.

The reasons for cyberbullying were also ready!

For example, Da Mimi was the second lead in "Ode to Joy", but she was nominated for Best Actress together with Tang Yan.

Sun Yizhou couldn't even squeeze into the top five in "My First Half of Life", and this time she replaced the male lead and the second male lead in the nomination for Best Actor.

Boss Wei was "very terrified" and had made plans to "apologize", but no one rushed to him, which made Wei Yang feel lost. He had even prepared a draft of his apology statement.

"It's boring!"

Bored boss Wei can only stay at home to take care of the pregnant woman. Liu Shishi's due date is only a few days away, and she has already started preparing to move into the hospital.

Liu Shishi also felt the pressure, and Wei Yang could only watch over her every day. If it is not necessary, she will hardly go out.

Da Mimi was the least upset about not being selected for the Magnolia Best Actress Award. It's not that she doesn't want to make a fuss, but she doesn't have time.

"Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" is on the air!

Zhejiang Province and Shanghai, two first-tier TV stations jointly broadcast it, PPTV opened a separate section, and there are countless discussions online and offline.

Although the two parts of "Ode to Joy" did not make Da Mimi the Magnolia Best Actress, her popularity and exposure have always remained at the top stage.

In the past two years, Zhao Liying's production has been low. Since "The Story of Ming Palace", there has been no new work. Liu Shishi has turned to movies and retired.

Fan Xiaopang's "My First Half of Life" is quite popular, but after all, it is only one drama, and its focus is more on movies.

On the other hand, Da Mimi has been quite active in the past two years, with many excellent works, and has become the most popular actress in the field of small screens.

Especially since the beginning of 2017, Liu Shishi retired, Fan Xiaopang and Zhao Liying were busy making love, and even turned to work behind the scenes when she was pregnant.

Da Mimi first won a big prize in the opening of the year with "Ode to Joy 2", and then took advantage of the record-breaking "Detective Chinatown 2", becoming the highest-grossing actress in the commercial box office.

Not only did her career explode, but during the retirement of Liu, Zhao, and Fan, she was madly harvesting exposure and made a lot of headlines.

It is hard to say who is the most popular actress in 2017, but if we divide it into the first half of the year, Da Mimi is second, and no one dares to say first.

Not to mention, there is also an equally popular Di Li Rouba.

Da Mimi is grateful countless times that she tried her best to persuade Boss Wei to let Rouba join "Eternal Love".

After the hit of "Love O2O" last year, Rouba, who was already very popular, has reached a new level in her career.

Similarly, the resources and exposure vacated by Liu, Zhao, and Fan's temporary retirement have benefited Da Mimi a lot, and Dili and Rouba, who are at the top, have naturally benefited a lot.

Da Mimi is the most popular female star in the first half of this year. Rouba is slightly inferior to her, but she is not out of the top three.

It is conceivable that the momentum of "Eternal Love" led by the two is very strong.

Of course, Rouba's role is not much, and she is more like a guest appearance, mainly to pave the way for "Eternal Love".

But she is so popular that no matter how many roles she has, she can be used as the main force in the promotion.

Yang and Rou joined forces, even the opening "Ode to Joy 2" is slightly inferior, and they are also highly anticipated and concerned by the outside world, and are regarded as a hot candidate for the drama king in 2017.

And "Eternal Love" did not live up to this expectation.

The ratings were OK, with both satellite TV stations breaking 1, taking the first and second place at the same time.

Although the ratings rose steadily afterwards, the data was not particularly high, and many people expected it to be around 1.5.

This result was not disappointing. Since the beginning of this year, the ratings have fallen again. Online broadcast data has completely replaced the ratings and become the key and core to measure whether a drama is popular.

The valuations of video websites such as PPTV have taken off all the way, also under this general trend.

The ratings of "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" are not strong, but it does not affect its being regarded as a hit, because it is popular enough online.

Twenty-four hours after it went online, the number of views exceeded 500 million, and then broke the record of PPTV's website with the fastest number of views exceeding 1 billion.

The popularity of Hualuo.com exceeded 10,000 on the first day, and it won the daily and weekly championships for many consecutive days. The monthly championship is also likely to be in its pocket.

The Weibo topic easily broke through the 100 million mark. In just a few days, all the actors in the crew have accumulated nearly 10 million fans.

Among them, the one who gained the most fans is Zhang Binbin, an artist under Mixing Entertainment and the male lead of "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms".

In this time and space, Da Mimi is even more popular, and has Boss Wei as the sponsor, and also invited the popular Di Li Rouba to guest star + cooperate in publicity.

Then there is no need to pull a Taiwanese male star as the male lead, it is better to support more newcomers.

And Zhang Binbin himself is not an ordinary newcomer. He played Zhang Qiling in "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" and is also a popular young actor.

The real newcomers should be Gao Weiguang, Zhang Yunlong, Dai Si, Huang Mengying, Zhu Xudan and other artists of Mixing Entertainment, who play supporting roles in the drama.

It must be said that the two partners of Da Mimi are average in filming dramas, but have a good eye for selecting people.

This group of people have more or less made a name for themselves later. The best ones have even started to play the leading male roles in mainstream projects and have firmly established themselves in the second tier.

Zhang Binbin in "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" had Zhang Ruoyun before him. He is the well-deserved leading male role in "Eternal Love". In addition, it is an ancient idol drama with the best fans, so his popularity has skyrocketed, and his number of Weibo fans changes every day.

Da Mimi is happier than her own fans. If this really brings out a top male star, Mixing Entertainment will make a lot of money.

Gao Weiguang and others have also received a lot of exposure, and their fame is rising in an amazing trend.

The role of a hit drama changes the career of an actor, and there are too many examples of a drama becoming popular in the circle.

For the Jiaxing group in the previous life, they basically became famous because of "Eternal Love".

Even Zhu Xudan, who didn't make much of a name later, went from being an eighteen-line actor to Zhou Zhiruo in the new version of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" after this drama.

Jin Yong's dramas of this era are indeed pulled, but they are still first-line productions, and countless artists are fighting for them.

Just as Wei Yang said to Da Mimi before, the most important thing for her about "Eternal Love" is not how much fame and exposure she has increased personally, nor how much money she has made, but to lead the entire company to progress.

The explosion of "Eternal Love" and the popularity of the artist group directly contributed to the market and capital's favor for Mixing.

Wei Yang has received news that someone is ready to invest in Mixing, and the valuation is guaranteed to be more than 2 billion.

But Wei Yang asked Da Mimi to hold back.

In the last time and space, Jiaxing's valuation soared by 20 times because of "Eternal Love", but whether Mixing is stronger or weaker than Jiaxing in the previous life, it is a fact that Mixing Entertainment has not yet fully tapped its potential.

At least after "Eternal Love" is broadcast and some of the dividends are digested, it will be the best time to negotiate.

In addition, Mihang is now profitable and backed by Boss Wei, the financial sponsor. In fact, it is not short of money, so financing pays more attention to resources and channels.

Boss Wei also has these, but he will definitely give priority to his own companies. Besides, who would complain about the lack of resources and channels when starting a company?

It is good for Da Mimi and Mihang to strive for some non-conflicting resources and channels outside the Blue Whale system.

…

June 19, the closing ceremony of the Magic City Film Festival

Wei Yang, who has not appeared since the Magnolia Awards, appeared at the awards ceremony, wearing a close-fitting royal blue dark pattern slim suit, still handsome and compelling.

Surprisingly, compared with the past, Wei Yang has a beard this time.

Not long, with slightly obvious stubble, concentrated on the upper lip and lower jaw, adding a bit of mature charm.

Boss Wei rarely had a beard in the past. Many people's impression of his appearance is more inclined to the clean boy in school uniform in the early days, or the high-spirited young official in "Celebrating More Than Years".

In fact, Boss Wei is about to turn 30 this year, and is about to enter the golden age of men.

Maybe not old, but not young either.

For Boss Wei himself, he is about to enter a new stage and become the father of several children. Growing a beard is also a reminder to himself.

Stop wasting time and make money for milk powder!

"This is the chairman of this year's jury, Cristian Mungiu, a Romanian. He shot "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days", which won the Palme d'Or at Cannes."

Xu Qing, who is also a jury member of this year, introduced Wei Yang. Wei Yang nodded: "I know him. He won the Best Director Award at Cannes last year."

After that, he switched to English: "Mr. Mungiu, your "Graduation Examination" is wonderful."

"Wei, your performance in "Wushuang" is excellent. I am surprised that you are the screenwriter of this movie, and you are so young."

Mungiu is not tall, has a square face, and his hairstyle and appearance are a bit like Jack Ma, which makes Boss Wei always want to laugh when talking to him.

Xu Qing and Meng Ji came over, not only to chat with him, but also to congratulate him on his award and to show their favor.

In fact, they didn't need to inform Wei Yang, as Boss Wei knew long ago that he would most likely win an award at the Shanghai Film Festival.

After all, this is the base camp of the Shanghai circle, and Boss Wei basically knows most of the organizing committee behind it.

It is also because of this that Wei Yang came to attend the award ceremony when Liu Shishi could give birth at any time.

In fact, they had formed a tacit understanding in advance. Now that they are giving awards and are ready to praise Boss Wei, the stage is set up, but Wei Yang doesn't come, it would be too rude.

He chatted with these judges and even acquaintances and friends, but those who are familiar with Wei Yang know that he is a little absent-minded.

There is no way, he is still thinking about Liu Shishi and the child.

Fortunately, the birth is not something that can be said to be born. From the start to the successful birth of the child, it normally takes at least ten hours, and Wei Yang has enough time to return to the hospital.

While waiting for the award ceremony to start, Wei Yang would look down at his mobile phone whenever he had time, for fear of missing any information.

Even when he went on stage to receive the award, his speech was relatively brief. He returned to his seat and checked his phone first.

As for the Golden Goblet Award trophy in his hand, which was also his first authoritative film actor award, it became an unimportant piece of junk at this time.

Boss Wei didn't have time to care, but that didn't mean that others ignored the trophy.

Although the Shanghai Film Festival is not as influential as the Golden Rooster, Golden Horse, and Golden Image in China, it is also a serious international A-level film festival.

In theory, it is at the same level as the three major European film festivals in Cannes, Venice, and Berlin.

Of course, the gold content is far worse in theory.

But no matter what, the international A-class is the A-class, and it is definitely not a slap-up award that popped up from a corner.

Anyway, Wei Yang's supporters recognize this award very much, and the fans' emotions are simple and direct.

The award that Wei Yang didn't win is just a garbage award that is blind and useless!

The award that Wei Yang won is a rare treasure award that beats the three golds, surpasses the three major European awards, and is comparable to the Oscars. You are ignorant if you didn't hear about it before.

So it is unreasonable for Boss Wei to complain about other traffic stars sometimes, and his own fans are not much better.

Weibo, Zhihu, Douban, and Bilibili are full of Boss Wei's fans praising and praising him. The news that Wei Yang was named the best actor has become a hot topic on major platforms.

He even raised the popularity of the Magic City Film Festival and the Golden Goblet Best Actor by himself.

He also made an Iranian actress named Sari Bayat famous, who was the best actress of this Magic City Film Festival.

Fans are very serious. They praised the best actor, so they also praised the best actress. The better the actor is, the better it is for Boss Wei who also won the award.

It is said that it also led a platform to purchase and import the Iranian movie that won the award.

The fans' joy and the topic of winning the award went viral on the Internet. These things did not get Boss Wei's attention. As soon as he returned to the hospital and had not yet shared the joy of winning the award, Liu Shishi started.

Wei Yang had no time to care about this matter. He was either comforting and accompanying Liu Shishi, or anxiously waiting for the baby to be born outside the delivery room.

After more than ten hours of suffering, on the morning of June 20, the young master Wei, whose full name was Wei Yi and nicknamed Shanshan, was finally born.

Looking at the small and ugly "red meat ball" on the bed, Boss Wei's heart melted.

He always thought that he liked his daughter more, but now looking at his eldest son, his face no longer had the former strategic planning and calmness. His mouth couldn't close, and he looked silly. If he changed his clothes, people would believe him if he said he was the idiot in the village.

Liu Shishi, who was still a little weak, couldn't help but take out her mobile phone to secretly take a photo, and then turned around to make an emoticon to laugh at Boss Wei.

The child was born, and the mother and child were safe!

The excited Boss Wei sent red envelopes everywhere, including a big red envelope for doctors, nurses and accompanying personnel, and even a red envelope of 888 for those who didn't know the truth and congratulated him on his award on WeChat. He joined any work group, friend group, chat group, and sent red envelopes to any person he saw.

It was secretly rumored that Boss Wei was almost crazy with joy for winning the Golden Goblet Award.

If he hadn't calmed down later, Boss Wei would have almost held a big lottery on Weibo, but even so, he still posted a Weibo to express his good mood.

Even the haters couldn't stand it anymore, and the famous Wei hater Pang Yidian posted a Weibo to mock him.

[That's the way it is, getting a second-rate actor is like giving birth to a son]
