Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 338: A furious confrontation with the Golden Horse Awards!

For the next month and a half, Zhou Yang participated in the filming of the movie.

To recreate the hardships and dangers faced by the Fellowship of the Ring as depicted in the original story, they crossed swamps, climbed snow-capped mountains, and traversed forests.

Thanks to everyone's excellent performance, the filming progressed very quickly.

In particular, Zhou Yang's portrayal of the Elf Prince was outstanding, with no mistakes whatsoever.

Zhou Yang's outstanding performance deeply moved all the actors and staff in the production team.

Watching Zhou Yang act is truly a double enjoyment for both the eyes and the soul.

Since the character of the Elf Prince only appears in the second half of the film, Zhou Yang's role is much smaller than that of Frodo and Aragorn.

Today, Zhou Yang finally finished filming his last scene, marking the end of his filming career.

This scene depicts the Fellowship of the Ring venturing into the mines of Moria, a dwarven territory, only to find that it had already been completely wiped out by the orcish armies of Mordor and become a dwarven graveyard.

The Fellowship of the Ring charged forward relentlessly, alerting the Orc army lurking underground. They broke through the defenses and launched a frenzied attack on the Fellowship.

The Fellowship of the Ring was caught in a fierce battle.

Zhou Yang, who plays the elf prince, keeps shooting arrows, and each shot kills an orc.

However, the enemy was numerous and quickly rushed to the front of the Fellowship of the Ring. Zhou Yang stopped firing arrows and began to fight the orcs in close combat.

Zhou Yang knocked down the orcs that approached him one by one, and the ground in front of him was piled with orc corpses.

"Click."

Peter Jackson finally called out, and at the same time, he shouted to Zhou Yang, "Zhou, congratulations on finishing the filming!"

Bang!Bang!Bang!
Suddenly, the staff around him took out small fireworks, lit them, and congratulated Zhou Yang.

The crew members and actors gathered around Zhou Yang to congratulate him on wrapping up filming.

"Zhou! Congratulations, you've finally finished filming!"

"I hope to have the opportunity to work with you again in the future. Zhou, you are the best actor I have ever met!"

"Zhou, could you please sign your autograph? I'm a fan."

"Zhou, your acting skills are superb. Could you teach me sometime?"

"Congratulations on successfully wrapping up filming, but I'm a little reluctant to say goodbye. It was a very pleasant experience working with you."

"..."

Everyone expressed their sincere blessings to Zhou Yang.

After spending a long time getting to know each other, everyone regarded Zhou Yang as a close friend.

Afterwards, Zhou Yang took a group photo with everyone and shared it on Weibo.

"#Actor Zhou Yang: I'm very happy to have worked with everyone for the past month and a half, and I believe this collaboration will leave a deep impression on everyone. Especially now that the journey of 'The Lord of the Rings' has ended, I'm sure you will all love it.#"

As soon as the Weibo post was published, fans flooded the comments section with their blessings.

"Congratulations, Brother Yang, filming is finished!"

"Waaah, Brother Yang, you're finally coming back to China! I've missed you so much!"

"Looking forward to Yang Ge's new movie, it's sure to be excellent!" "The original novel, *The Lord of the Rings*, is a superb epic work; I hope the movie will bring us the same awe we felt when reading the book!"

"Brother Yang, even if you're developing your career in Hollywood, don't give up on domestic films!"

"Exactly, without you, I've seen a lot of bad movies lately!"

"I recently saw a terrible movie called 'Journey to the West,' and wow, it made me really uncomfortable. Yang, you need to come back and clean up the film industry."

"..."

Many movie fans have offered their support and encouragement to Zhou Yang, but at the same time, they also hope that he will not give up his investment in and support of Chinese films.

In the past two years, with the rapid development of Zhou Yang's career, he has had a profound impact on the film and television industry. Nowadays, the days when you can easily make a lot of money just by relying on your youthful looks and popular IPs are long gone.

For example, the previously released film "Shanghai Fortress" was adapted from a popular novel and starred rising star Lu Han. It is said that the film had a budget of 300 million yuan, and Lu Han, as the lead actor, received a salary of 100 million yuan, accounting for one-third of the total cost.

What's even more unpleasant is that Lu Han, who plays a soldier in the film, has a thick head of bangs, and his military cap is even worn crooked because of the hairstyle.

Viewers could no longer tolerate it and expressed their boycott, ultimately causing the investors of "Shanghai Fortress" to suffer losses of billions of yuan.

Such a scene would never have happened before, but everything changed after Zhou Yang rose to prominence.

That evening, Zhou Yang had a farewell dinner with director Peter Jackson and other creative staff.

The next morning, Zhou Yang boarded a plane bound for Shanghai, China.

Since Zhou Yang did not disclose his return date in advance, apart from a few paparazzi who often wait at the airport and some fans, the crowd did not surge as much as it had the previous two times.

This is to avoid affecting other passengers and to protect the safety of their fans.

Moreover, Zhou Yang no longer needs to rely on fans who greet him at the airport to prove his influence.

At an airport, Chen Tianzhen welcomed Zhou Yang and took the luggage that Zhou Yang handed him.

Outside the airport, shuttle vehicles were already prepared.

The driver put Zhou Yang's luggage in the trunk, Zhou Yang sat in the back seat, and Chen Tianzhen sat in the front passenger seat.

After getting into the car, Chen Tianzhen suddenly turned around and said seriously, "Xiao Yang, you have been nominated for Best Actor at the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards for your role as Pang Qingyun in 'The Warlords'. Moreover, the Golden Horse Awards have hinted that as long as you participate, you will definitely win the award."

Best Actor at the Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan?

Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment, then said, "Sister Tianzhen, this is great news! Why not go if you can win an award?"

After all, as one of the two most prestigious awards in China, the Best Actor award at the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards is something that many people dream of but cannot obtain.

“However, there’s something I must tell you.” Chen Tianzhen’s expression became very serious.

"What happened?" Zhou Yang asked curiously.

Hearing these remarks, Zhou Yang's brows furrowed even more.

A moment later, Zhou Yang couldn't help but fly into a rage and said, "Immediately disqualify all of the company's films from being submitted for consideration, including 'The Warlords'! This award is ridiculous, I have no interest in it!"

“But… if other celebrities go, some people might accuse you of being arrogant,” Chen Tianzhen said worriedly.

"I'm going to be arrogant! As a Chinese, would I be controlled by a small award from Taiwan? I like to earn money through my own efforts and win awards based on my abilities. What's wrong with that?"

“Okay, I’ll take care of it right away.” Chen Tianzhen nodded in agreement.
