Chapter 461 459. The dry wood called ambition.
Xu Xin slept for about an hour, and when she woke up, Liang Bingning had already left.
He didn't ask what he was talking about. After waking up, he washed his hair and walked outside the bedroom. After seeing his wife who was putting on makeup, he stopped moving.
Sitting on the sofa, I began to flirt with my fairy-like elder sister who had finished her makeup.
Yang Mi's eyebrows can dance.
This is what he admires the most.
This elder sister's eyebrows can form that...very strange direction under her control.
It looks so wretched, but it is very fun.
If you don't look like yourself, your eyebrows will only be raised or lowered, looking dumb.
The two of them were exuberant there, whether it was the makeup artist or Sun Ting and the others, it was as if they couldn't see it.
The couple have a good relationship, so it's normal to make some small moves.
After teasing for a while, Xu Xin suddenly said:
"What kind of makeup are you going to wear at the wedding?"
"I do not know."
Yang Mi, who also closed her eyes because she was going to start eyeshadowing, replied:
"Probably put your head up and put on makeup similar to what you have now..."
Suddenly began to talk about the wedding, Yang Mi continued to ask:
"When do you want to end?"
"At the end of the year. How is it?"
"Okay, then at the end of the year, relatives and friends will not be busy."
"The wedding photo..."
"It's not urgent, you finish shooting the hawthorn tree first, and I'll see how to adjust the work."
Up to now, the two of them actually don't care much about that wedding anymore.
Emotions are here, and children are also born.
Although the loving life is plain, it has its own charm that others cannot understand.
Weddings... In fact, there is nothing to show yourself except to torment others.
are for others to see.
…
After finishing her makeup with her daughter-in-law, Yang Mi went into the bedroom to change.
Chanel's couture looks really good.
Xu Xin, who was watching, sat up straight unconsciously, and put his hands in his pockets.
No way, this is his hobby.
Anyway, this kind of high-end order is only worn once, and it is thrown into the closet to eat ashes after wearing it.
It's not as cheap as our old Xu, isn't it?
But this **** always feels like she's wasting things...
What have I spoiled?
It just doesn't make sense.
When I go to participate in some activities, I guard myself like a thief...
how? The big deal is that if I don't tear it up, it's over.
Can you make me comfortable?
Staring at this white dress, Xu Xin swallowed unconsciously.
After realizing that her husband's eyes were wrong, the young woman's expression suddenly became tense + alert.
"Then what... tell him to change clothes, hurry up... lock the door."
Hearing this, Xu Xin rolled his eyes again.
But the time was indeed approaching now, he sat on the sofa for a while before getting up and walking into the bedroom.
Men wear clothes much easier than women.
Soon, the dress was put on, the tie drooped on his shoulders, and he walked out.
Needless to say, Yang Mi came directly to her husband with her skirt in hand, pulled out her tie and started to tie the knot for him.
But not too deadly.
It's not time yet, the tie is too tight to make people feel uncomfortable.
Then, the talented and beautiful couple received compliments from everyone in the room:
"Sister, you look so good standing with Brother Xu."
"Brother Xu, my sister chose this suit really well~"
"It's so pretty~"
Amidst the compliments, Yang Mi dragged her husband to the mirror, raised her phone and snapped a selfie.
When taking pictures, she also deliberately put on a look of refusal to be thousands of miles away.
The white dress, coupled with this virtue, highlights a high and cold.
It just matches the dog-faced and frigid style of my husband.
Really handsome.
…
"The Sound of the Wind" was nominated for five awards: "Best Film", "Best Director", "Best Actress", "Best Asian Film" and "Best Costume Design" for the Academy Awards.
But...not to mention the media, even Xu Xin himself is not optimistic about any awards other than "Best Actress".
First of all, for the best picture, he wants to compete with "October Siege", which has the same theme but has a stronger lineup.
As for the best director, he is the only director from mainland China. The others, whether Er Dongsheng or Wu Yusen, are local directors from Xiangjiang, not to mention, Xu Xin can't match his "film" qualifications and experience.
What's more, the shortcomings of "The Wind" are actually obvious.
Its story isn't "big" enough.
So I have no idea.
As for Best Asian Film and Costume Styling…
The former doesn't have any heavyweight awards, and the factory doesn't care about the latter...
The kind that really doesn't care.
And the only thing Xu Xin is thinking about is whether his wife can win the three gold actresses.
And whether he can push Sister Bingbing up.
Looking at the nominees for the heroine... the hope is actually not high.
So, this time the people from "The Wind" are actually quite "a cat and a dog".
Associate director Bi Qun was in charge of the styling design, and Yang Mi, Huang Xiaoming, and Liang Bingning were the leading actors, plus Xu Xin himself.
There are only five people in total.
Brother Qianer has a performance, Wang Zhiwen is not interested, Zhang Hanyu went to filming. Li Pingdong was actually there, but he was still filming on the set and couldn't leave.
can’t come.
And Liang Bingning also has a nomination for Best Supporting Actress for "October Siege".
Her hope of winning is even higher than Yang Mi.
In short, if there is anything to look forward to at the Xu Xin Golden Statue Awards this time... it is the competition for Best Actress. The rest is gone.
Best director or something, he really doesn't care.
Even if you don’t get it.
Early 5pm.
It's almost time, and the crew of "The Wind" met downstairs in the hotel.
Going downstairs, you can see the stars shining in the hotel lobby.
Familiar faces on the screen are chatting and chatting in the lobby. The entire hotel lobby is like a red carpet backstage.
The appearance of Xu Xin and Yang Mi immediately gained the attention of many people.
Can you not pay attention?
The resources of Yindu began to transfer to the mainland, and reached a cooperation with Xiying Studio.
In addition, in the past two years, those big film companies in Xiangjiang have reached cooperation with the mainland, and the golden age of Xiangjiang movies has completely become the past.
The previous Hong Kong movies were Lord.
Whether their gangster movies, gambling movies, zombie movies, ghost movies...even tertiary movies, they all exist like the Bible in the minds of mainlanders.
Even when mainland actors were paid 10 or 20 yuan for a day of filming according to the standards of state-owned factories, the remuneration of Hong Kong stars who worked with them was already hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars.
Mainland filmmakers are naturally inferior to Xiangjiang movie stars at that juncture.
Even if it is a co-production, the Xiangjiang people occupy an absolute dominant position.
But now?
Resources, status, and markets are completely reversed.
Xiangjiang has to see the face of mainland film companies.
As the overall market began to wither, they looked at the young faces of the couple in front of them, whether they were those who lamented that things were right and wrong, or those who still firmly believed that Hong Kong films were No. People with sweet mouths and swords, these film-related practitioners all put on enthusiastic smiles and began to gather around Yang Mi and Xu Xin.
Xiangjiang Movies has really run out of ammunition.
In the past few years, the stereotyped police and gangster themes, the stereotyped "Infernal Affairs" model, and the box office at best are no more than 30 to 40 million...not even a fraction of the couple.
Don't say anything like Wu Yusen and "Red Cliff".
Isn't "Red Cliff" also invested by mainland China?
They, the remnants of the old era, see that Hong Kong movies are about to become a backwater. Even the newly grown audience in Hong Kong don't recognize those old Hong Kong stars, but start chasing mainland entertainment idols.
When the big boat is silent, if you don’t hurry to find a backer, is it possible to wait to be buried together?
So...
"Hello Director Xu, I am the general manager of Xiangjiang Media Asia Fengyun Investment Company..."
"Mimi, do you remember me? We worked together on "The Door"..."
"Director Xu, we meet again..."
The couple who had just stepped out of the elevator were overwhelmed by the crowd.
The movement was so loud that almost everyone in the hotel lobby was paying attention.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the stars are holding the moon.
The couple were also taken aback by this battle.
Can't it?
This is Xiangjiang, not the mainland... Why are these people here?
Although the people who came were investors or crew members, there were not many actors.
But for the film industry as a whole, actors are just a facade to the outside world. The real backbone is this group of people.
Everyone watched these two people being surrounded by people who were named and met, and even for some young actors, a single word could determine life and death, and they scrambled to say a few words, and then interacted with the assistant next to them. In the scene of changing business cards, the actors felt a little... specious and absurd.
Among these absurd crowd, Tang Yan was also there.
She watched helplessly as the producer of "Fengyun 2", Mr. Lin Xiaoming from Universal Entertainment, walked over, exchanged greetings with Mimi, and handed over her business card.
At this moment, her eyes are a little straight.
Looking at Yang Mi's direction in a daze.
The production company of "Fengyun 2", Yindu is the big head.
Silver Metropolis, jointly produced by Universal Entertainment, Orange Sky, and Golden Harvest.
Facts have proved that mainland audiences are less and less willing to buy movies starring Xiangjiang artists.
That's why they decided to return to the mainland and reached a cooperation with Xiying Studio.
And now who is the biggest face of Xiying Studio?
The director is Xu Xin.
Among the actors is Yang Mi.
At the beginning, just like myself, Yang Mi stayed on the set of "Sword of Heaven" on a hot day, eating popsicles and hiding in the shade of a tree, laughing and laughing.
Yang Mi has changed so much that she can hardly recognize her.
As a collaborator who has been in the same crew for several months, it's not like Tang Yan doesn't know how popular Yang Mi is in the eyes of the media.
Whether it’s a paparazzi candid photo, or occasionally attending an event or showing her face, her “extravagant” face has gained a lot of attention for her, the head of the second generation of four female roles in the Mainland.
But in Tang Yan's heart, although she also knew how powerful Yang Mi was...after all, she is now the queen of the double gold actress.
But in her memory, Yang Mi is still the same Xue Jian in the red dress and side ponytail, and everyone "shares the joys and sorrows" together.
It is really hard for her to understand why the photos taken by the media always make her look full of...a temperament that is hard to describe.
Mimi at the time was obviously very talkative.
And it feels quite simple.
But after "Sword of Heaven", why did it change so much?
Is it because you got married and had children?
That transition from girl to woman?
Or is it...some other reason?
She really doesn't understand.
But I don’t know when it started. When everyone mentioned the name "Yang Mi"...even herself, she didn't dare to call out the "Mimi" that she was used to in the crew anymore.
Instead, he called her "Yang Mi" in a very cautious manner.
is quite strange.
But there is a sense of complexity in the strangeness.
In all honesty, even if you have acted in "Secret" and Zhu Wushuang, "Secret" made Gui Lunmei, "Wulin Biography" made a group of five, Zhu Wushuang and Qingyi are both marginal characters. So when I was on the set of "Sword and Sword III", although everyone knew Yang Mihuo, they really didn't have the feeling of "ah, the big name is here".
But now...a piece of "The Wind" directly established her outsider status.
The ability of a "Grandmaster" to pull the three major film studios into the game made people in the circle wake up like a dream.
When she was still struggling for some movie resources, she had become that...
How to describe it?
You look at the woman who stands in the crowd, showing off with a smile, but makes everyone please and laugh with her...
Does it look like a phoenix receiving worship from a hundred birds?
"..."
Her eyes are still straight.
There is an indescribably complex taste in the sluggishness.
It is agreed that everyone will survive together...
Why did you bake the oil secretly?
And when her heart was full of mixed feelings, Yang Mi seemed to have a feeling in her heart, her eyes passed through the crowds, and she suddenly saw Tang Yan staring at her upright.
She froze for a moment.
Immediately, the polite smile on his face changed visible to the naked eye, showing a touch of agility and nature.
Then…
While Xu Xin was jumping up and down and shouting "dog woman", she left her husband without hesitation, and walked towards Tang Yan step by step with her skirt in hand.
"Sugar!"
The little milk sound called "clip sound" by black fans called out straight, attracting many people who paid attention to her to look at her together.
Sugar...?
Who are you calling?
Such an eager address?
Oh, it turned out to be her.
what do you say that is? Sugar... Tang smoke?
She also knows Yang Mi... Oh yes, they seem to have acted in a TV series together.
Tut.
No wonder.
Yang Mi is said to be very righteous, and never forgets friends in need.
So... the relationship between the two is very close?
After all, it was possible to leave so many people behind, and it seemed a bit "rude" to stand with the other party.
Well…
If they have a good relationship with Tang Yan, does it mean that they also have a chance to have a good relationship with Yang Mi?
After all... isn't that young model called baby an example?
For a while, these small details were like stones thrown into the lake, causing ripples in everyone's hearts.
Tang Yan was a little confused when he heard the name "Tangtang".
She didn't understand why Yang Mi came over suddenly.
Logically speaking, our relationship has not reached this point, right?
I haven't been in touch since "Sword and Sword III".
But she didn't have time to think about it, because wearing a dress that was not cheap at a glance, the extremely dazzling white female entertainer Hua Dan had already walked over and said to her with a smile:
"I just told Xu Xin to find you first... Hehe. Ah, you are so beautiful."
"..."
Tang Yan opened his mouth, and a smile appeared on his face belatedly.
"You are much prettier than me."
While speaking, she paid attention to the eyes of the people around her.
Many people are paying attention here.
Most of them are men.
Although he knows that this honor may not be won by himself, it is like a poor boy following a well-known rich man to a ballroom dance.
A false sense of vanity made her unconsciously enjoy the attention of the audience.
The wonderful feeling of being noticed by handsome men, celebrities, and even many women with jealous faces is like giving a thirsty traveler a drink of clear spring water after walking in the desert for many days.
Clearly knew that the water belonged to others, not oneself.
But that refreshing taste still made her feel like she couldn't stop.
Fame.
into the wrist.
Become a big star.
Then... Enjoy the attention that this status and beauty brings.
Is this what it feels like?
It's like the most delicious spoonful of golden soup in the world.
Once you taste it, you will never forget it.
For a moment, the smile on her face became more natural and brighter.
Said to Yang Mi:
"You're here just like that? Leave Director Xu alone?"
"Why do you care about him?"
Yang Mi smiled and glanced at her lover who was still greeting others politely, and asked:
"Hey, are you not in a hurry to leave after the awards ceremony? Shall we sit together at the reception?"
"…ah?"
Tang Yan was taken aback.
Subconsciously, he looked back at the crew that only won two awards this time, "Best Art Director" and "Costume Design".
Ren Dahua is the host of the Academy Awards.
Zheng Yijian didn't come.
Guo Fucheng is here...but as the veteran Four Heavenly Kings, he has his own social circle.
The rest are some of the crew nominees.
As an actor who got the chance to act because of the recommendation of the investor, her status is really embarrassing.
Because... Cheng Tian also knew that she couldn't keep her.
Although she can’t be alone, facing Yang Mi’s invitation, after hesitating for a while, she still obeyed the lingering feeling in her heart, nodded and agreed:
"OK."
Hearing this, Yang Mi smiled brighter:
"Um!"
"Mimi."
At this moment, a voice sounded.
Liang Bingning's voice came out of the elevator.
Yang Mi turned her head:
"Hey... ah, sister, you are so beautiful!"
Looking at Liang Bingning, who was wearing a platinum dress, looking graceful and luxurious, she first praised, then turned her head and said to Tang Yan:
"Tangtang, I'll go there first, see you later."
"…All right."
So, the beautiful white phoenix flapped its wings and left lightly.
got together with the platinum phoenix.
The two dresses, worth close to 200,000 yuan, reflect the two beauties who belong to different "ages" but are equally beautiful and magnificent. Everyone's attention is like a beam of spotlights. Following Yang Mi's footsteps.
Peel off Tang Yan little by little.
Finally, it converged on two women who were laughing and chatting.
And when the light is not there, focus away.
At this moment, Tang Yan wearing a Valentino suddenly felt like... Cinderella after midnight.
After the glass slipper and pumpkin carriage are gone...
was beaten back to the prototype again.
The coldness became more and more real, causing goosebumps to form on her exposed neck, shoulders and arms.
But in her mind, she was trying hard to recollect the wonderful feeling when the beam of light came over just now.
It's like the faint spark that falls from the body when the phoenix takes off.
remember, remember.
Sparks are falling in my heart little by little...
fell on the dry wood named "Ambition".
Gathering with friends today, there is only one chapter. Normal update tomorrow!
