Chapter 70
Chen Mo greeted him with a smile.
"Good, good. Some time ago, I saw you singing under Anita Mui's concert. I originally wanted to talk to you, but when I went to find you, you had just left by plane. I didn't expect to meet you here this time."
Jackie Chan smiled.
"Hehe, I asked for leave from the crew before, and the time was tight, so I was in a hurry to go back. By the way, Jackie, I'm your fan, sign an autograph for me later."
Chen Mo smiled.
"Haha, sure."
Jackie Chan laughed out loud.
Then he changed the topic and asked with a smile, "By the way, what movie are you filming recently?"
"A movie by Director Cameron, it's estimated that it won't be released until next year. It just wrapped up some time ago."
"Oh."
Jackie Chan nodded with a smile, but began to ponder in his heart.
Then the two chatted for a few more words, and then walked into the award ceremony.
After going inside, Chen Mo found his seat under the guidance of the staff and sat down.
His seat was relatively forward, because in every award ceremony, as long as the person nominated is in a relatively forward position, it is convenient for whoever wins the award to go on stage to receive it.
After sitting in his seat, Chen Mo began to look around.
Not long after, people also sat in the seats on both sides of Chen Mo.
Chen Mo looked at these two people and had a little impression, but he didn't remember them very clearly; he thought they shouldn't be big shots in the later generations.
Half an hour later.
The award ceremony began.
First, the host was on stage, performing a talk show.
Then, amidst the host's teasing, the award ceremony proceeded bit by bit.
The first awards presented were some awards with relatively low gold content.
After about an hour passed, it finally reached the first award for which Chen Mo was nominated.
"Congratulations, the winner of this year's MTV Best New Artist Award is..."
"Chen Mo!"
As the words fell.
Everyone applauded!
And Chen Mo stood up, straightened his little suit, turned around, and bowed to everyone below to thank them.
Then Chen Mo walked towards the stage.
At this moment, the system's voice rang out in his mind.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the first music award, unlocking the Music Scene Newcomer II achievement, and rewarding the system with one lottery chance.]
Listening to the system's voice, the corners of Chen Mo's mouth raised slightly.
Soon arriving on stage, Chen Mo took the trophy from the award presenter and then raised it with a smile.
Seeing this scene, the guests below felt complex.
They vaguely remembered that a few years ago, when this youth was still a child, he was at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony.
Then, during the few years he disappeared from the screen, everyone thought this child would disappear into the long river of film history, but they didn't expect him to appear at a music award ceremony with his first album!
And he even won the most special Best New Artist Award!
One must know that everyone only has one chance in their lifetime for the Best New Artist Award, while there is a chance for the Best Singer Award every year.
The special nature of this award goes without saying!
Jackie Chan, who came here to mix screen time, was also looking at the youth with a complex expression at this time.
To say he wasn't envious would be a lie!
However, based on his relationship with Anita Mui, he could invite Chen Mo to make a cameo in his next movie!
To gain some attention for his movie!
"Thank you to the organizers for letting me win this award. In fact, there are many people who are better than me; I am just the most ordinary member of this circle..."
Chen Mo said his humble acceptance speech.
After thanking them, Chen Mo left the stage.
The award presentation continued.
Soon it was the highlight of the night, the Best Pop Singer Award!
"The winner of the Best Pop Singer Award is... Davis."
Clap clap clap...
Applause rang out.
Chen Mo applauded below, feeling a bit disappointed in his heart, but it was as he had guessed; after all, his qualifications were still too shallow, and unless the organizers' brains were broken, they wouldn't give him this award.
However, being able to win the Best New Artist Award was already a good harvest!
We have a long way to go!
The next day.
The media reported on the awards from yesterday's MTV ceremony.
Among them, the Best New Artist Award won by Chen Mo surprised everyone, but they didn't think it was strange.
After all, everyone had witnessed the achievements of Chen Mo's album "Green Plum."
The global sales had now reached 12 million copies!
Among them, the song "BABY" had topped the "Billboard Pop Chart" for fifteen consecutive weeks!
However, Chen Mo was only 12 years old now!
Everyone dared not imagine what his future would be like!
Just like his acceptance speech at the Golden Globe Awards a few years ago!
His glory was just a beginning!
His future is bright!
Mid-October.
The sample of "Titanic" had been edited and sent to the Film Association for review.
A sample did not represent the final film; the production of the final film would take at least another half a year.
Because this movie was a joint production of Fox Film Corporation, Universal, and several other giant film companies, the Film Association immediately conducted a review after receiving the sample.
However, some controversy arose during the review!
The main reason was the age difference between Chen Mo and Kate.
Additionally, there was the scene where Chen Mo drew a painting for Kate.
After all, the controversy over this scene was very great; Chen Mo was only 12 years old, and if such a movie were released, the impact would be too bad!
So the Film Association directly rejected the sample!
The approval did not pass.
After the film company learned the reason for the rejection, they immediately found Cameron.
And Cameron, who was persistent about the movie, how could he let that most perfect scene be cut? So after learning about the matter, he immediately went to Fox Film Corporation and began to pester them.
Cameron had been famous in Hollywood for a long time; he first relied on "Piranha," then filmed "The Terminator," and then "Alien"!
Finally, he established his position in the director circle with "True Lies."
So Cameron's pestering was taken very seriously by the film company. After a joint meeting of several companies, they immediately sent representatives to the Film Association, and at the same time, they used their connections or some channels to find a way.
When time reached the beginning of November, the sample finally passed the review.
And no scenes were cut!
It was just that the movie's rating was set to R!
This level suggests that viewers over 17 should watch it.
In his past life, the rating of "Titanic" was set to PG-13, but now it was set to R, which was one level higher.
The reason for this was naturally Chen Mo's age issue.
Cameron didn't care about this small problem.
In the following time, he continued to work on post-production with the post-production team.
Soon, another three months passed.
