Chapter 84 Starlight
……
Among the three major awards in mainland China.
The Golden Rooster Awards are judged by the judges' vision, the Hundred Flowers Awards are geared towards the audience, and the Huabiao Awards belong to the mainstream ideology.
Each of the three awards has its own strengths and appeals to different tastes.
People were bustling around the hotel restaurant.
A quick glance revealed that there were no fewer than a dozen film crews, each gathered together eating the dinner provided by the organizing committee.
In the east corner of the restaurant, the "Sniper Phone Booth" group sat around the table, eating and chatting.
Ning Hao arrived and was busy dealing with the lobsters and crabs on his plate, occasionally chatting with Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao.
Director Lin, easily swayed by others, also flew in from the capital to join in the fun, sitting next to the boss and indulging in a hearty meal and drink.
"Is it tasty?"
Fang Yi glanced at him, then said helplessly, "If you're absent from work during the workday, believe me, I'll dock your pay."
"Boss, don't be angry."
Lin Yi swallowed the food in her mouth, took a tissue to wipe her mouth, and said happily, "It's your first film and your first nomination. How can we not have someone from our studio witness it? Everyone else wanted to come and told me to take pictures of you winning the award."
As she spoke, she patted the small backpack behind her, looking as if she were shouldering a heavy responsibility.
Inside the backpack lay a small Sony HDR-HC1 digital camera with video recording capabilities, supporting 1440x1080 resolution 1080i high-definition recording.
$2000 a pair, definitely a little rich girl.
After dinner, everyone went upstairs to rest and recharge for tomorrow's opening ceremony.
Inside the elevator.
Fang Yi looked at Lin Yi, who was carrying a bag and looked like a college student, and asked in confusion, "Did you book a room in advance?"
The entire hotel was being used by the SY city government to house the film crew participating in the election. Why didn't she look for accommodation elsewhere and instead followed them into the elevator?
"no."
"I'll be sharing a room with Sister Chen tonight."
Lin Yi shook her head, holding her phone, unsure of who to text.
"Which Sister Chen?"
"Chen Ran, one of the representatives from China Film Group, she lived in the same compound as me when I was a child."
Very good, as expected of Director Lin, you have a wide network of connections.
Fang Yi nodded, almost forgetting the girl's background; it was purely unnecessary to ask.
The elevator suddenly fell silent.
Everyone stared at Lin Yi with strange expressions, shocked by the "courtyard" she mentioned.
Lin Yi remained calm and composed, seemingly oblivious to the stares of the crowd, and smiled sweetly with her pretty face raised.
"Boss, I have a work report to give you later."
"Let's talk in my room."
Ding, the elevator doors open.
Fang Yi waved goodbye to everyone and took his child to his room.
Looking at the two figures as they walked away, Huang Xiaoming said with a hint of envy, "Of all my peers, I admire the director the most. He has an innate charisma and leadership quality."
Deng Chao, Fan Bingbing, Hu Jun, and Yang Xue all agreed. Based on their brief observation, judging from Lin Yi's attitude towards Fang Yi despite her impressive background, neither of them took these matters seriously.
The fact that someone with a powerful background treats Fang Yi as their boss speaks volumes.
in the room.
Fang Yi took the teapot to the bathroom, washed it carefully, and then filled the pot with water before coming out.
Lin Yi sat on the living room sofa, fiddling with the digital camera; she wasn't quite sure how to use it yet.
Fang Yi plugged in the teapot, walked over to teach her, and asked, "So, what is it?"
"Boss, I've had someone check the three documents you gave me these past few days, and I've also contacted each of them. Only Liu Ruifang is interested in joining the studio."
Liu Ruifang, Xu Zheng and Xiao Taohong's agent!
Fang Yi's brow furrowed, and he turned on the video recording function, filming the room while gesturing for Lin Yi to continue speaking.
"As far as I know, Cheng Li is a second-tier producer at Bona Film Group. She works in the production department overseen by Liu Guoning and is currently a team leader. However, she is highly regarded by Yu Dong, and the two are also related."
As Lin Yi spoke, she leaned her head over to look at the footage captured by the digital camera and was very satisfied with the image quality and clarity.
She took the camera, organized her thoughts, and continued, "I had coffee with her once. She is very satisfied with her current job and has no intention of changing jobs. As I see it, she seems confident in Bona's listing."
Go public!
Haha, she's interested in Bona's initial public offering (IPO) shares.
This person can't be pulled.
Fang Yi quickly understood Cheng Li's intention, shook his head and smiled, and said, "Did Zhong Lifang give you the same reply?"
"That's right. Zhong Lifang is highly valued by Li Ming at Pegasus Media. She has now been promoted to Vice President of Business Development, and is fully responsible for the company's external investment, financing, investor relations, public relations and the development of the film company. She is the third or fourth most powerful person at Pegasus Media."
Lin Yi spoke slowly, but her expression gradually turned serious, replaced by a emotionless sigh.
"Zhong Lifang is an elite talent. Boss, you don't know, after I talked to her, she actually poached me, saying that if she could get me to join Xiaoma Benteng, she would personally mentor me and promised me the position of deputy manager."
She was hurt by Zhong Lifang; as a newcomer to the workforce, she was crushed by an elite, powerful woman.
Fang Yi smiled slightly: "Then do you want to go there?"
"I'm not going!"
Lin Yi's tone was firm, and she rolled her eyes at him, saying, "If I want to go there, why would I tell you all this to the boss?"
OK OK.
Director Lin's unwavering resolve is truly admirable!
Fang Yi gave him an encouraging look and softened his tone, comforting him, "Let these two go for now, don't let them have any more contact. When you get back to the capital, try to meet with Liu Ruifang again and ask her for her specific opinion on Yi Dongrenxin."
"As the saying goes, fortunes change every ten years. Today's easily swayed hearts may seem insignificant, but in the future they can certainly rival, or even surpass, the speed of a galloping horse."
While Pegasus Group appears to be full of energy and has a strong growth momentum, its business model is family-run and has not successfully transformed like Huayi Brothers.
hehe..
With Li Ming around, Xiao Ma Ben Teng still has something to play with.
If Li Ming were to pass by like a shooting star in his previous life, Little Horse Galloping would be in a difficult situation in an instant.
"Yes, I have confidence in the boss and Yidongrenxin."
Lin Yi gripped the camera in one hand and clenched her fist in the other, a joyful smile returning to her face.
She sat for a while longer, then got up and left.
Fang Yi closed the door, sent a message to Liu Yifei, who was far away in the capital, and then took a shower and went to bed.
......
The following afternoon.
Fang Yi and his entourage traveled to the "Beauty Companion" theater in a seven-seater van.
Outside the theater, a red carpet stretched for hundreds of meters.
Looking around, the red carpet was packed with media reporters on both sides, and thousands of spectators and movie fans were on the periphery.
It was a grand and lively event, far surpassing the Beijing University Student Film Festival in April.
After waiting for a while, staff from the organizing committee came forward to provide guidance.
Fang Yi got out of the car first, and then walked down the red carpet with Fan Bingbing, who was wearing an evening gown.
Behind them, Huang Xiaoming, arm in arm with Yang Xue, and Deng Chao and Hu Jun accompanied them. The six of them walked slowly across the 100-meter red carpet in three groups.
Lin Yi wasn't part of the film crew; she had already followed Chen Ran through the internal passage to sneak into the inner area.
On the red carpet, besides the flashing white lights of cameras, there was also a tsunami of shouts from the audience.
Celebrities love walking the red carpet, under the spotlight, and attracting worldwide attention.
Every twenty meters or so, a big star would appear, and the cheers from the audience would rise in waves.
Jackie Chan sported a beard, exuding masculinity, while Ge You smiled kindly and strolled leisurely.
Andy Lau, with his tousled hair, still looks handsome, while Tony Leung's eyes are deep and seem to penetrate the heart.
Chow Yun-fat sported a slicked-back hairstyle, exuding the aura of the God of Gamblers, while Stephen Chow, with his half-gray hair, looked pitiful.
There are also a host of popular stars and actors such as Chen Daoming, Zhang Guoli, Liu Xiaoqing, Zhao Zhetian, Zhang Ziyi, Fan Bingbing, Zhou Xun, and Xu Jinglei, each of whom shines brightly and exudes captivating brilliance, as if they are the darlings of heaven and earth, favored by destiny.
