Chapter 494

As the awards ceremony approached, the media in Taiwan were all predicting the ownership of each award.

Wei Jin's "Bottom-tier Girl" sat on 7 nominations, neck and neck with Lou Ye's "Mystery."

Therefore, these two films were also the big favorites in the eyes of the media, and they were the two with the most intense competition.

And as the female lead of "Bottom-tier Girl" and a candidate for the Golden Horse Best Actress nomination, Jing Tian finally arrived in Taiwan the day before the awards ceremony.

"Brother, did you miss me?"

As soon as Jing Tian left the airport, she saw Wei Jin coming to pick her up personally. Her exquisite pretty face was smiling like a flower, and she instantly rushed over like a flying swallow returning to its nest, greedily breathing the familiar scent.

"Of course, I miss you every day."

Reaching out to touch the back of the girl's head, Wei Jin's mouth hooked into a smile.

"Alright, Tiantian, the local paparazzi are somewhat impolite. Let's go back to the hotel quickly..."

While speaking, Wei Jin had already taken the girl's hand and got into the car, and the latter leaned her head on his shoulder.

"Hmm~~~"

Jing Tian was very much looking forward to what would happen next.

In the hotel bathroom, Jing Tian soaked in the warm water tank, her whole body exuding a lazy scent, and a shallow smile appeared on her face.

This man is really too considerate.

Honestly, she flew from London to Hong Kong and then to Taiwan, a flight of more than ten hours, plus the time to rush to the hotel. Although there was a rest in the middle, she was indeed somewhat exhausted mentally, so soaking in a hot bath was really too comfortable.

It's just that she had been in for a while, so why hadn't her brother come yet? So Jing Tian tilted her head and shouted toward the living room:

"Brother, the water is so comfortable, come quickly~~~"

"Hmm, coming."

Wei Jin responded while walking into the bathroom. As he stepped into the bathtub, the water surface instantly rose, spilling all over the floor.

Jing Tian adjusted her posture, leaned into the man's arms, and asked curiously: "Brother, whose call was that just now?"

Wei Jin reached out to stroke the perfect snow-white breasts and said warmly: "Sister Wenli's."

"Hmm? Brother, did you chat for so long for public relations?"

"You even know public relations?"

Jing Tian rolled her eyes beautifully: "Brother, I also go online, okay? Online it says even the Oscars have public relations..."

"You could say that."

Wei Jin dotingly pinched the beauty's pretty face and didn't say much.

This time at the Golden Horse, since he came, Wei Jin hoped for a good result and had done quite a bit of work in advance.

This work couldn't be called going through the back door; on the contrary, it was to be as fair as possible.

After all, he didn't have a Taiwan household registration, and "Bottom-tier Girl" didn't have an overwhelming advantage, so some awards were not easy to get.

However, this involved a lot of human feelings and interests, so there was no need to tell Jing Tian.

"Then brother, can we win an award this time?"

"The problem shouldn't be big..."

When saying this, Wei Jin thought of Li An's attitude, then looked at the girl whose pretty face was somewhat red because of the misty heat.

"However, if there is only one award, I hope it is Best Actress."

"Brother, thank you..."

These love words moved Jing Tian deeply. She knew that this Golden Horse was for her, so she took the initiative to offer a fragrant kiss.

The soft red lips kissed down from Wei Jin's lips, neck, chest, and abdominal muscles, and finally deeply surrounded him warmly... The awards ceremony of this Golden Horse was in the evening, but as a female star, Jing Tian was participating in the Golden Horse for the first time, and she didn't participate in activities in the previous few days, leaving only the final red carpet moment, so the brand side was extremely enthusiastic.

At ten in the morning, two makeup artists came to apply makeup for Jing Tian, and the dresses and jewelry set by the brand side were all sent over.

Wei Jin had long been mentally prepared for a woman's makeup speed, so he took the opportunity to communicate with other members of the crew.

Except for Jiang Shan, who was also a woman and busy with makeup, the rest of the people, such as Xu Yajun, Zhang Songwen, and Bai Yu, had all tidied up and dressed up.

The three were all in black high-end suits. Except for Zhang Songwen, who was dressed a bit strangely, Bai Yu and Xu Yajun looked spirited.

However, in front of Wei Jin, who was wearing a minimalist design, black double-breasted retro dark blue suit, they were all not enough to look at.

It can be seen that Zhang Songwen and Xu Yajun were somewhat excited. Although they are all old actors with great acting skills, the number of times they have won awards is really countable.

It was Bai Yu, because he had participated in Venice and was not participating in the evaluation this time, so he had no loss, and his emotions were relatively stable.

After chatting for a while, Wei Jin also went to care about the other crews of Shanhe Media.

Coming to the side of "Love is Not Blind," he saw Bao Jingjing and Yang Mi applying makeup.

"Senior brother, you're here."

Looking at Wei Jin's figure in the mirror, Yang Mi's mood was somewhat complicated.

Bao Jingjing on the side also reacted and wanted to get up, but was pressed down by the makeup artist, so she could only look at the mirror and greet: "Hello, President Wei."

"Hmm, don't move around, I'm just here to see you..."

Under the eyes of everyone, Wei Jin couldn't do anything with Yang Mi, so he looked at Bao Jingjing.

"Are you very nervous?"

This round-faced girl joined the company's screenwriting department after this drama, but she had always been a homebody in the screenwriting department, and Wei Jin rarely saw her.

"President Wei, I am a little nervous..."

Bao Jingjing didn't avoid it. This drama "Love is Not Blind" nominated a total of three major awards: Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actress, and Best Cinematography.

The screenwriting award related to her had to PK with a literary masterpiece like "White Deer Plain." Saying she wasn't nervous would be lying, right? "It's okay, calm down. Whether you win an award or not, you are working for me, and your salary won't increase, haha."

"..."

Although she felt that the boss's teasing was somewhat damaging, Bao Jingjing really felt that she wasn't that nervous anymore.

Yang Mi looked at the handsome face reflected in the mirror and gathered the courage to ask: "Senior brother, do you think I have hope of winning an award tonight?"

"I can't answer this question for you, but I know that your performance in this drama is quite good. If you demand yourself according to this, you will sooner or later be able to win a big award..."

Wei Jin couldn't comfort her against his will. The public relations direction this time was definitely placed on Jing Tian.

Even if Jing Tian didn't win in the end, Taiwan wouldn't be able to award it to Yang Mi, otherwise it would really be unclear.

However, Wei Jin didn't know if Yang Mi could listen to these words.

When Wei Jin returned to Jing Tian's makeup room again, he saw Ning Hao, who had changed into a new outfit, chatting with Zhang Songwen.

"Yo, senior brother, your eternal style has changed. It's rare..."

Wei Jin teased with a smile. Not to mention, after changing into business casual wear, Ning Hao's appearance really improved by a level.

Ning Hao felt somewhat uncomfortable and waved his hand.

"Hi, isn't this your Sister Na? She told me to wear this when I left, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain it when I go back. Without the gold chain, I don't feel comfortable at all..." Wei Jin couldn't laugh or cry: "Senior brother, you really don't forget your original intention, hahaha."

Ning Hao was actually quite open-minded about this Golden Horse. After all, he had already won the Berlin Silver Bear.

So after chatting for a few sentences, he pulled the topic to the recent film market, and his tone also had a bit of emotion:

"Junior brother, this 'Life of Pi' is really fierce..."

Wei Jin nodded: "Hmm, Li An's is still very capable. Before the rest of the films in the New Year slot are released, 'Life of Pi' should soar all the way."

This film has been released in the country for 3 days and has completed three jumps in single-day box office.

From 21 million on the first day, to 34.8 million on the second day, and directly doubled to 45 million on the third day.

After three days of release, the box office directly broke 100 million! More importantly, this is still a weekday box office. If you count the two days of the weekend, the first-week box office might even directly break 200 million.

Undoubtedly, this is another film with both word-of-mouth and box office success, and the subsequent box office is completely worth looking forward to.

At five in the afternoon, Wei Jin received a notice from the staff and set off from the hotel with "Bottom-tier Girl."

Today Jing Tian was in a black long dress, with black gauze of the same color wrapped around her chest, setting off her fair skin to be more translucent; paired with strip ear chains and platinum broken diamond ring necklaces, the whole person was simple and noble.

When Wei Jin took her hand and walked out of the hotel, he heard bursts of shouting, followed by large flashes of light.

"Director Wei, Tiantian, I wish you success!"

Wei Jin looked in the direction of the sound. Good guy, it turned out to be a Sina reporter.

"Thank you."

Six people, two cars, Wei Jin and Jing Tian sat in the back row, Bai Yu sat in the passenger seat, and the other three were in one car.

The car started slowly and moved toward the awards ceremony at Yilan Luodong Cultural Plaza.

Currently, the Golden Horse is still the film festival with the greatest influence among the three major Chinese-language awards, so the scene today can be described as a sea of people, lively and extraordinary.

From a distance, Wei Jin heard the sound of mountains and seas, and it goes without saying that it was the fans who came to support.

As the vehicle approached, Wei Jin heard several familiar names, and Xie Feng was among them.

It must be said that Xie Yingdi's popularity in Taiwan is quite high. This time "The Viral Factor" was also nominated for Best Actor, and he was a competitor with Zhang Songwen.

As the vehicle stopped, staff members immediately came to open the door. Wei Jin stepped out of the car first, then reached out to Jing Tian.

As the two held hands, Bai Yu and others also came behind.

The "Bottom-tier Girl" crew officially appeared!

In the flashing lights, Wei Jin and his group followed the etiquette to the red carpet waiting area.

"Old Wei, Tiantian, over here."

Hearing this voice, Wei Jin knew it was Huang Bai, but after looking over, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

"Old Huang, this style of yours, what the hell?"

The Huang Bai in front of him had white hair decorated with tin foil on his head and was wearing super low-crotch pants. It was a killing-matt style, which was really somewhat spicy to the eyes.

"No way, I don't want to either, it's required by the organizer..."

Huang Bai scratched his head, and there was even a big earring hanging on his ear. Even Jing Tian was covering her mouth and holding back laughter on the side.

"President Wei, hello, Tiantian, teachers, hello, I am the host tonight, Zeng Baoyi."

A short girl bowed slightly to Wei Jin and greeted him.

"Hello."

Wei Jin nodded and responded. This is the daughter of Hong Kong's Eric Tsang, but he is not familiar with her.

"Old Huang, how are you prepared? Are you nervous?"

"Hey, Old Wei, you underestimate my ability, right? Perfectly handled!"

It is unrealistic for such a large film festival to have no mistakes. It mainly relies on the on-the-spot reaction. Huang Bai considers this his strength, so he is very confident in his words.

"Alright, do it well. This is the first time a mainland artist has hosted the Golden Horse. The above attaches great importance to it. Maybe after you go back, you will fly up..."

"Heh heh, thank you boss for your kind words, and I wish you and Tiantian a big award tonight."

Jing Tian showed a sweet smile on her face: "Thank you, Brother Bai."

As hosts, Huang Bai and Zeng Baoyi entered the venue in advance.

Wei Jin chatted with Qin Hao again. Regardless of the relationship with Ceng Li, the two had known each other for seven or eight years, and the relationship was still good.

Honestly, Qin Hao's acting skills are good, but unfortunately, his appearance is too limited. Over the years, he has been lukewarm and can only act in some literary films, which is a bit of a pity.

Even more regrettable than Qin Hao was Hao Lei, who stood beside him. Her acting skills were great, and her appearance was not bad, but her marriage and acting career were directly destroyed by a "Summer Palace," which is too regrettable.

As time passed, the lights were on, and night fell.

The five-member jury including Andy Lau and Jiang Qinqin appeared, and the red carpet officially began.

Director Wang of "White Deer Plain" took Zhang Yuqi, who was in a deep V dress, and walked on the red carpet first.

It must be said that this woman's figure is really explosive, and she is really dare to wear it, exposing more than half of her balls.

The key is that she seems to enjoy the eyes of others, and she is indeed a strange woman.

Subsequently, the "Tai Chi 1" crew, Angelababy, took Stephen Fung's hand and walked across the red carpet.

Lin Chi-ling in a pure white long dress, exposing her sexy back; Li Bingbing in a dark green slim cheongsam.

Yang Mi's style today is also good, big waves with a black slim V-neck long dress, full breasts, swaying dazzling spring light on the red carpet.

Immediately after, "Mystery," "The Great Buddha," "Life Without Principle," "Girlfriend Boyfriend," Hou Hsiao-hsien, Cheng Long, Cheng Chung-kei, and others walked on the red carpet one by one until only half of the people were left in the waiting area, and finally it was Wei Jin's group.

"Let's go."

Wei Jin took Jing Tian to walk in front, Zhang Songwen and Xu Yajun surrounded Jiang Shan in the middle, Bai Yu was at the back, and the group presented a 231 formation and walked on the red carpet.

"Now walking toward us is the crew that has received the most attention tonight, with 7 nominations, sweeping 658 million at the box office in the mainland, and creating the highest copyright price of 38.6 million US dollars for a Chinese-language film, the 'Bottom-tier Girl' crew! Welcome Director Wei Jin, Jing Tian, Zhang Songwen..."

The "Lucy" back then had excellent box office in Taiwan, and Jing Tian's popularity was not low.

So when the group stepped on the red carpet, the sound of mountains and seas rushed over, and the flashes of the media on both sides almost never stopped.

After signing, the red carpet host stopped Wei Jin and his group as usual.

"Director Wei, this is your second time participating in the Golden Horse. Do you have confidence in winning an award?"

"I never lack confidence, but whether I can win an award depends on the judges. However, I hope it will be a double happiness, haha."

"Then I wish Director Wei get what he wants tonight!"

"Thank you."
