Entertainment: You're asked to make a healing animation, but it will make the whole internet de

The Golden Bear Cinematheque, the awards ceremony venue.

The air seemed to have frozen.

Thousands of top filmmakers, media reporters, celebrities, and dignitaries from around the world held their breath at that moment.

On the giant screen on the stage, the director's camera was cruelly switching back and forth.

With each switch, the atmosphere in the audience became more and more tense.

However, every three or four camera cuts, it invariably switches back to an Asian face.

Su Bai.

Compared to the restlessness of the others, he appeared unusually calm.

He leaned back in his seat, even glancing at Shen Qingyue, who was so nervous she was about to faint, and gave her a reassuring smile.

Spirited Away has already won the prestigious Jury Prize tonight, which should be a tremendous honor, but at this moment, it has become a curse.

Because in the history of the Golden Bear Awards, very few films have won both the Jury Prize and the Golden Bear Award at the same time.

Taking one almost means losing out on the other.

The young animators on the healing animation team had sweaty palms, their young faces a mixture of excitement and unease.

"Oh no, I'm done for. I've only made it to the finals."

"Being able to receive an award for artistic contribution is already historic; don't overthink it."

Shen Qingyue clenched her fists tightly. She dared not look at the stage and could only stare intently at Su Bai, as if trying to find a definite answer on his face.

But Su Bai's expression was as calm as a bottomless lake.

This process is too slow.

Hurry up, my flight is taking off in four hours.

He was idly complaining in his mind when the stage lights suddenly went out.

A spotlight shone on the white-haired chairman of the judging panel.

The final moment has arrived.

The chairman walked onto the stage, holding a thin, golden envelope in his hand.

He didn't tear it open immediately as usual.

Instead, he walked up to the microphone and slowly began to speak.

His voice, transmitted through the speakers, reached every corner of the venue and every screen around the world watching the live broadcast.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have seen a lot in the past ten days. We have seen reflections on war, the struggles of humanity, and the tearing apart of society."

With each word he spoke, the expressions of the master directors in the audience grew more tense.

Dragon Kingdom.

Late at night, tens of millions of movie fans stayed in the live broadcast room. The barrage of comments had stopped, and everyone was afraid that their breathing might disturb that distant stage.

[That's it, they're talking about the human side of war, it has nothing to do with us.]

Don't panic! It might be a case of initial setbacks followed by a surge!

On stage, the chairman suddenly changed the subject.

"but."

"There was a work that didn't condemn war or dissect society. It simply allowed all of us judges to rediscover our own childhood."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes instantly turned towards Su Bai's location!

The chairman's gaze also passed over the crowd and met Su Bai's gaze in the air.

He continued.

"With the most magnificent imagination, it constructs a world that we all arrive at in the dead of night. It reminds us that no matter how far we go or how bizarre and wonderful the world we are in, we should never forget our own name."

The words were spoken.

The entire venue fell into complete silence.

The chairman raised his hand and, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, tore open the envelope that would determine the recipient of the highest honor in the world of film.

"Sizzle."

A soft sound, yet at this moment it was like thunder.

He took out the card and glanced down at it.

Then, he looked up and a relieved and genuinely bright smile appeared on his face.

The director's camera was fixed on his lips.

The whole world is waiting for that name.

The winner of the Golden Bear for Best Picture is...

The chairman deliberately dragged out his words, his gaze sweeping over the tense faces.

Finally, his gaze fixed firmly on Su Bai.

"Spirited Away! From the Dragon Kingdom!"

Everyone's mind went completely blank!

In that instant, time seemed to be pulled away.

After a full three seconds of deathly silence.

Throughout the Berlin Film Palace, applause and cheers exploded like thunder, almost lifting the dome of this century-old palace!

"We won!!"

Shen Qingyue let out a gasp of disbelief, and tears instantly welled up in her eyes!

The team members behind him seemed to have gone mad, instantly leaping up from their seats.

Around them, the blond, blue-eyed film masters had various expressions.

Some were taken aback, some were disappointed, but most, after a brief moment of shock, stood up and offered their most sincere applause.

This is surrender to art!

The old director who had once publicly mocked Su Bai at the party was now ashen-faced, while his colleagues applauded.

He simply slumped in his chair, lost in thought, as if all his energy had been drained away.

The flashbulbs went off, illuminating the entire venue as bright as day!

Holy crap!

We won!

[Awesome!]

In the Dragon Kingdom's live stream room, the chat had completely disappeared, leaving only a loading icon that kept refreshing due to server overload.

In the heart of this frenzy, Su Bai slowly stood up.

He calmly opened his arms and embraced each of the team members who rushed up to him.

Then, he strode forward alone, calmly and step by step, toward the stage that belonged to the champion.

He accepted the heavy Golden Bear trophy, the highest honor in world cinema, from the chairman's hands.

Su Bai walked to the microphone and raised the trophy.

At that moment, the world's attention was on him.

He looked around the room, and then slowly began to speak.

The sound wasn't loud, but it instantly silenced the entire room.

"Animation is not just for children."

He paused for a moment, his sharp gaze sweeping across the room, and spoke clearly, word by word.

"It is the last refuge for the human soul."

After he finished speaking, he nodded slightly.

"Thanks."

No further words were spoken.

But this short sentence has deeply resonated with people.

Once again, thunderous applause erupted!

This time, it was even more fervent and sincere, filled with deep respect!

This sentence was broadcast live and spread all over the world in one second!

In China, the headquarters building of Bilibili (B站) is brightly lit all night long.

The moment Su Bai raised the trophy and uttered those words, the operations team, who had been on high alert, pressed the red button.

On the Bilibili homepage, a pop-up window covered all the content.

Against a bright red background, there is only one line of large golden characters.

Congratulations to Spirited Away and director Su Bai on winning the Golden Bear Award!

Almost at the same time.

On the Dragon Kingdom News app, a push notification popped up with a headline that shocked everyone who was up late at night.

[A historic breakthrough! my country's animated film Spirited Away wins the Golden Bear Award at the Hans Christian Andersen International Film Festival, the highest honor in the world of cinema!]

That night, the Dragon Kingdom was sleepless.

At this moment, Su Bai became the pride of the entire Dragon Kingdom!
