How to Raise a King

When Tang Yi greeted Guo Lei before, he explained his willingness to sit with Yan Xuan at the awards ceremony, and the other party patted him on the back, showing no displeasure on his face.

"I watched "Roots," Guo Lei said at the time, "Yan Xuan is a good filmmaker. Over the years, I have gone against my original intention of entering this industry and become a complete businessman. Yan Xuan is not like us. Same, you should support him more."

Tang Yi told Yan Xuan about this, and the other party pondered for a while, feeling a little moved.

Guo Lei can be regarded as one of the top-runners in the domestic film industry, Yan Xuan is proud of the fact that he can say such a thing, but at the same time feel sorry for the current film industry.

Yes, nowadays, when commercial movies are rampant, movies have long been separated from the essence of artworks, and have become real commodities.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on any filmmaker at all, after all, this is the status quo of today's film industry.

In fact, even Yan Xuan himself sometimes has doubts about what he is insisting on when he is extremely lost. It's just that he is stubborn and still has the courage to do what he wants to do after being lost.

In such a state, even he didn't know how many years he could last.

But no matter what, even if there will be a day when you will be shaken in the future, and you may even regret your current choice, as long as you have no regrets in your heart right now.

Leo and Cui Zhixun came back and forth to say hello and then went to the crew of "Wei Young", Li Xinran also came over after a while.

She is wearing a pure white tube top dress today, and she has a bright silver-gray handbag dotted with crystals.On the white and slender neck is a delicate emerald necklace, on the ears are small emerald earrings, and the hair is coiled high.She has an excellent figure and skin, and her outfit makes people almost unable to take their eyes off her, and her demeanor is generous and decent.

"It's too deserted here," teasing, Li Xinran walked towards Yan Xuan, who is 1.6 meters five, the high heels on her feet today are only five centimeters, it seems that she is specially considerate of Yan Xuan, who is less than 1.8 meters, "So I'm showing kindness, so let's come here and show off to Director Yan."

Tang Yi smiled and gave the two of them a thumbs up.

Yan Xuan and Li Xinran are familiar, so they don't feel any shyness.When the two stood together, they were handsome and beautiful, and few people would know that Yan Xuan was out-and-out gay, but this matter had long been tacitly understood in their small circle.

Homosexuality is a very effeminate existence in many people's minds, not to mention Tang Yi, although Yan Xuan's personality is a bit weak in private, but there is no effeminacy in any way.

Li Xinran appreciates Yan Xuan, she is very similar to Tang Yi in character, and she is also the same as Tang Yi's people who want to help, but compared to Tang Yi's gentleness, she is a little bit stronger.

Tang Yi doesn't know what heterosexuals think about such a woman, but in his eyes as a homosexual, she is very attractive and aura.

It is very comfortable to get along with such a person.

Speaking of which, from Song Lin to Tao Kewei to Li Xinran, and now including Mika Chen, no matter what their appearance is, these women who have been friends with him actually have a lot in common in personality.

Strong, powerful, unpretentious, a bit manly but also feminine.

"How is Xiaobo recently? Are you tired of going to class during the winter vacation?" Li Xinran sat on the sofa and hugged Peng Bohan onto the armrest of the sofa.

"It's okay, it's much more relaxed than when I was in school." Peng Bohan replied very obediently, folding his □ together and shaking them from time to time.

The red carpet clothes that Jingchen chose for him and Tang Yi were single-button bright silver suits and black suit trousers, which were conspicuous but not surprising among male stars who mostly wore black, white or blue suits.

The hair was dyed maroon curls, the child's hairstyle was very cute, the half-length hair wrapped around a fair little face, a standard handsome boy.

He was a little black monkey a few months ago, but now even his temperament has changed.

Li Xinran pinched the bridge of his small nose, and sighed at Tang Yi's good eyesight.

Tang Yi lowered his eyes and looked at Peng Bohan with a smile, and lightly touched the top of his head twice with his fingers.

The red carpet show starts at [-]:[-] pm, and the awards ceremony is expected to be held at [-]:[-] pm.

There are a few new faces in the Golden Dragon Awards this year. Every year, there will be a few actors who debut directly as amateurs, but most of the time they come and go in a hurry, and there are not a few who disappear after only filming one movie.

As always, there are more male stars than female stars, so in addition to the matching of men and women, there are also many male stars who walk on the red carpet in groups of two or three.

Jingchen's female partner is Lian Yayi.

The queen of Asia also made a film this year. According to her, this is the first and last film in her life. Fans naturally bought it unconditionally, so the box office is good.

Tang Yi has never seen this play, so it is hard to comment on it.

Lian Yayi is over 30 this year, but she is well maintained and does not look old. This is the first time for her to stand under the same lens as Jing Chen with a queenly aura, and she has not been compared in the slightest.

Maybe Jingchen kept a low profile on purpose. Compared with last year's outfit, this year he chose the most ordinary black and white collocation. Beside him is Lian Yayi in a gorgeous red deep V dress. The two lingered on the red carpet for a long time .

Last year's Golden Dragon Awards, he and Jing Chen were also like this, being dragged by the media and stopped on the red carpet for two to three 10 minutes.

Tang Yi, who was standing in the background watching this scene, suddenly felt a clear dissatisfaction in his heart.

For the first time, the fact that he couldn't say that this man was himself in public made him feel so deeply depressed.

Today is Lian Yayi.

There may be others in the future.

It is impossible for Jingchen to accompany him on the red carpet all the time, and Lian Yayi will definitely not be the only one taking pictures with him in the atmosphere.

This feeling is the so-called desire for monopoly.

Tang Yi seldom feels this way, because Fox has rarely partnered with anyone other than him except for the occasional commercial shooting or program announcement since his debut.

Albums, movies, they have always been together, even if they have collaborated with others, apart from knowing that there is such a thing, the busy Tang Yi rarely finds out to see the situation at that time, so watching him stand with others like this, saying Woke up for the first time.

This kind of jealousy and possessiveness made Tang Yi feel very bad.

What makes him uncomfortable is not just Jingchen's behavior of cooperating with others, but also his own immature thoughts.

It was probably because they stayed together for so long that he almost forgot that this man was just like himself. As public figures, they couldn't choose many things.

"Godfather, what's the matter with you?" As if sensing Tang Yi's emotions, Peng Bohan moved the hands they were holding together.

Tang Yi came back to his senses, although he was smiling, there was a trace of loneliness in the corners of his eyes.

"fine."

What are you thinking, he smiled wryly, he should be happy to see such attractive ears, right?

Jing Chen who is by his side is always too gentle, and it is rare to see such a side of him, maybe he should think about it in another way - this will make him understand more, for Jing Chen, he and others Man, what is the difference.

Sighing slightly, Tang Yi shook off the unreasonable pettiness.After entering the entertainment industry, one has to pay the price for the glory after all. He shouldn't care about such things at all.

Jingchen is his, and this will never change.

In fact, Jingchen can't be blamed for this.

The reason why she agreed to walk the red carpet with Lian Yayi was because Lian Yayi mentioned it when she asked her to lend Shen Jia to him for a while.

After all, it was actually for Tang Yi, otherwise he would not have done something against his will to accommodate others.

"Are you just so unwilling?" Lian Yayi, who was standing beside Jingchen, looked at the other's cold expression, and somewhat guessed what he was thinking.

Jing Chen pursed the corners of her lips, moved her lips, and said in a low voice: "I know that I still make such a request."

"Hehe..." Lian Yayi smiled, and changed her posture under the camera, "Everyone takes what they want."

"What's in it for you?"

"It's not a good thing to be the female companion of the mirror god?"

"Aren't you afraid of being sprayed by my fans as 'old cows eat young grass'?"

He didn't take his venomous tongue seriously at all, and even Yayi's expression didn't change: "Anyway, I just have my own plan."

"Oh~" Jing Chen suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, "Because of Shen Jia?"

"..."

Glancing at the people around him from the corner of his eyes, the person who doesn't mind the age of most women who are very sensitive, but because of this sentence, his expression was distorted for a moment, and Jingchen knew it.

"Is it really for Shen Jia, to stimulate him?"

Lian Yayi regained her composure, glanced at him, and "hummed" in displeasure.

If you don't speak, it's the default.

After getting the answer, Jing Chen circled his right arm, and the expression on his face became happy: "We have stayed on the red carpet long enough."

Lian Yayi didn't speak any more, she took his arm, and the two walked off the red carpet regardless of the retention of the photo media, and walked towards the awards ceremony.

Not long after the two went down, they arrived in the order of Tang Yi and Peng Bohan.

Tang Yifu, who was leading the child, set off a small climax as soon as he appeared on the stage.

Peng Bohan, as a child star who is about to debut, has received a lot of attention after the broadcast of "Roots". Ever since he knew that he will enter the entertainment industry soon, the media has paid a lot of attention to this child, and even paid a high price for it. Buy any information about his identity, but Tang Yi's confidentiality measures are very good. No one knows anything about Peng Bohan's background.

Although "Roots" did not reach the top three at the box office in the end, the image of the young Lin Tianyuan won the hearts of the people.

It is already amazing that a six or seven-year-old child has such superb acting skills, and the child brought up by Tang Yi is his godson whom he personally admitted in front of the media, out of consideration for his sexuality , the media is already speculating that this child may become Tang Yi's heir in the future.

Although in fact Peng Bohan did not adopt Tang Yi, but he did have this consideration.

After all, it is impossible for him and Jing Chen to have children, and Peng Bohan is such a well-behaved person.

Tang Yi did not explain anything about this, because of his silence, this kind of speculation was gradually enlarged, and many people acquiesced to this matter.

Two people, one big and one small, walked up the red carpet slowly. Under the continuous sound of shutters and flashing lights, Peng Bohan raised his face confidently, without feeling nervous at all, and even made his hand gestures so flatteringly.

If it is not known that Tang Yi is out-and-out gay, some people may suspect that this child is his own.

After all, from expressions to movements, they are all so imaginative, and even give people the illusion that their faces look alike.

Some media asked Tang Yi to interact with Peng Bohan, Tang Yi readily leaned over and hugged Peng Bohan.

Peng Bohan hugged Tang Yi's neck and smacked Tang Yi's face.

Tang Yi turned to look at him, Peng Bohan smiled "hehe", pouted and kissed his chin lightly, Tang Yi hugged him with one hand and rubbed his head fiercely.

After a few small movements, the two turned their heads to face the media's cameras in a very tacit understanding, and even waved their hands in exactly the same way.

The interaction between them is very warm, and the media presses the shutter more quickly, as if they don't want to miss any of their expressions.

Walking off the red carpet, there is still a short distance from the hall where the award ceremony is held.Tang Yi squatted down and carried Peng Bohan on his back, and walked towards the meeting hall under the leadership of the staff.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jing Chen waiting at the door, and the other party took Peng Bohan from Tang Yi's back casually.

The air conditioner in the venue was fully turned on. Tang Yi, who was carrying Peng Bohan on his back, was dripping with sweat on the tip of his nose. Jingchen reached out and hooked the bridge of his nose.

Tang Yi glanced at the staff around him, but fortunately, the other party didn't notice their small movements.Jing Chen didn't know whether it was a subconscious reaction or he didn't care about being seen, so he walked towards Tang Yi with Peng Bohan in his arms.

He and Lian Yayi were in the same position as Guo Lei and Leo, but Tang Yi and the others were a little far away.

"Yan Xuan's place is a bit deserted, shall I come to accompany you?" Jing Chen asked after sitting down.

Tang Yi shook his head: "It's okay, as long as Xinran and I stay with you, it's a bit too exaggerated for you to come here again, just in case..."

He coughed and didn't continue.

It's too ostentatious, if he doesn't win the award, it will make Yan Xuan's face look bad, and he will give up his excuses in front of the media.

It's okay for him to think about such discouraging words in his heart, and it's naturally difficult to say them out of his mouth.

Jing Chen understood and didn't insist anymore, opened a bottle of water for Tang Yi and Peng Bohan and went back.

Tang Yi and the others were already at the back of the queue, so the red carpet was over after waiting for less than an hour.

Yan Xuan looked much better when he was seated than when he was backstage just now.

After walking on the red carpet with Li Xinran, he found that the media was not as indifferent to him as he had imagined, and was even very enthusiastic, which made his self-confidence seem to increase a bit.

Tang Yi and Li Xinran sat next to him, one on the left and the other on the right, and the three hosts had already taken their seats on the stage on the right side of the stage.

When the host announced the start of the awards ceremony, Yan Xuan's body tensed up again.

The first item of the awards ceremony is the best feature film award, it is impossible for Yan Xuan not to be nervous.Tang Yi patted the back of his hand on the handle lightly, but it didn't make him feel better.

After the host's opening remarks, the award presenters came to the stage.

This year seems to have reached a small climax in the domestic film industry, and there are many good films, so the Best Feature Film Award has added two more nominees than before.

The award presenters announced the shortlisted films this year, and "Wei Young" and "Root" were unsurprisingly listed.

"The highlights of the shortlisted films will start playing below, please watch on the big screen."

On the screen behind the stage, the words of the shortlisted films of the xx Golden Dragon Award for Best Feature Film quickly appeared, accompanied by sound effects surrounding the venue.

"Wei Young" was ranked third.

The excerpts of this movie are the interaction between Xiao Rui and He Ran in daily life, Xiao Rui was kicked out of the house by He Ran and cried bitterly in the rain, Tomson's conflict in Mijia's bar when he lost his love, and Tomson took Xiao Rui The scene where Rui's ashes are given to He Ran.

Although it was only a few clips and half a year had passed, Tang Yi could still clearly remember every detail of the play, and couldn't help but sigh.

The "Roots" segment aired in the penultimate place.

As soon as it came up, it was the scene of Lin Qing played by Leo lying on a hospital bed.

Between the white sheets and the sheets is the dark, wrinkled face of a rural old man who has worked in the fields for five or sixty years.

He opened his mouth, and someone took off the oxygen mask, and someone lowered his head and leaned closer to his ear to listen.His trembling, chapped lips moved, and the tears of the listeners fell on his face.

This is the first and last scene of this movie.

When Lin Tianyuan rushed to the hospital, he learned from the villagers that his father had passed away.

Those who don't want to lose will eventually lose. There are too many things that money can't buy.

Even though he has worked hard to create his own world in the city, even if he has bought the best house in the city for his old father, he finally chose to abandon his father because of his shameful inferiority complex and self-esteem, and now he is finally rejected by the man who did it for him. Abandoned by his father who had worked hard all his life.

Lin Tianyuan knelt upright in front of his father's hospital bed, and someone came up and put the white cloth on his father's body to the top of his head.

He slowly closed his eyes, a tear fell down his expressionless face.

After the clips of the 14 films ended, the awards presenters reappeared on the big screen.

The camera zooms in, and the award presenter picks up the envelope.

"This year's Golden Dragon Awards, the film that won the Best Feature Film Award is—"

The back of Yan Xuan's hand under Tang Yi's finger became tense and stiffer at that moment, and Tang Yi even involuntarily turned his gaze from the award presenter who everyone was paying attention to to Yan Xuan.

""Wei Young"! Congratulations to Director Yan, congratulations to the crew of Wei Young!"

There was a bang in Yan Xuan's mind, and for a moment his mind went blank.

He stared fixedly at the award presenter, seemingly unaware that the other party had already announced the winner of the award.

However, in fact, he knew clearly that this award was far away from him.

Because the sentence read by the guest echoed in his ears repeatedly, he even had the illusion of tinnitus.

After a long time, he heard Tang Yi and Li Xinran calling his name in a low voice.

He shivered suddenly and came back to his senses, there was no blood on his pale face.

He looked back and forth between Tang Yi and Li Xinran in a daze. Among the same lost group of people, no one had time to pay attention to his emotional changes. Yan Xuan only felt his hands and feet were cold, and he didn't even say the simplest sentence "I'm fine". not come out.

"Yan Xuan, the awards ceremony has just begun." Tang Yi comforted him like this, but he himself understood how weak such comfort was.

He knew how much Yan Xuan was looking forward to this award, because he himself was looking forward to it too.

Even though "Wei Young" he starred in won the grand prize, he couldn't feel the joy at all.

Leo and Cui Zhixun felt the same way as him, they couldn't help looking this way, they couldn't see Yan Xuan's expression clearly because of the distance, but it made them even more worried.

Yan Xuan took a deep breath, and it wasn't until Guo Lei had finished his award acceptance speech on behalf of the crew on stage, and it had been more than ten minutes before he came back to his senses.

The corners of his eyes were a little sore, Yan Xuan smiled wryly, and held the hands of Tang Yi and Li Xinran who were patted on the back of his hands worriedly.

"I'm fine, don't worry." His voice was a little hoarse, but the initial shock was over.

Such a result was not unexpected.

This is the first time he participated in the Golden Dragon Award with his work, and being shortlisted already shows his certain strength.

This is already very rare, he should be content.

Saying this to himself, closing his eyes, Yan Xuan straightened up and tried his best to suppress the slump on his face.

Tang Yi and Li Xinran exchanged glances and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

The following awards for Best Documentary, Best Art Film, Best Educational Film, Best Opera Film, and Best Children's Film had nothing to do with them. For a long time, Yan Xuan kept the same posture and remained motionless.

Rather than saying that he is still lost, it is better to say that he has completely lost his mind.

Both Tang Yi and Li Xinran noticed this, but they didn't say anything more.If you comfort him now, he may not be able to listen to him.

"Yan Xuan, it's time for the Best Screenplay Award." Tang Yi pushed Yan Xuan's hand when the next award came.

The other party nodded, seemingly distracted, but in fact he had been listening.

However, when the award presenters announced that the winner of the Best Screenplay Award and the Wanhua Award was Ma Shu, the screenwriter of "Wei Young", Yan Xuan had completely lost confidence.

Tang Yi felt as if he had lost the election.

He even wanted to ask the judges how "Gen" is worse than "Wei Young".

Perhaps it is because of the unique subject matter of "Wei Young", Tang Yi has always thought that "Wei Young" is a classic, and "Root" is never inferior to it.

"Let's take a look at the nominations for this year's Golden Dragon Award for Best Director. Please watch it on the big screen!"

Movies under the names of various directors were quickly broadcast on the screen. When the baritone narration read ""Root"——Yan Xuan", Tang Yi glanced at the dull Yan Xuan beside him, and sighed.

A total of five people were shortlisted for the best director this year. To Yan Xuan, it was already equivalent to winning the award.However, he was probably too disappointed, Yan Xuan didn't feel anything anymore.Where there is expectation, there is disappointment. Even if he understands it himself, he still can't get out.

Tang Yi sighed, and when the award presenter picked up the envelope, he turned his face away.

"The winner of this year's Golden Dragon Award for Best Director is—the director of "Roots" who made us feel the magnificence in the simplicity and the true artistic atmosphere of the film——"

Tang Yi suddenly turned his head. He opened his eyes wide and glanced at the award presenters, and then his eyes fell on the man who was the focus of everyone's attention at the moment.

The female guest seemed to be very moved, she even paused, raised her head, and found the man with a dull expression under the attention of everyone.

"Yan Xuan!!!"

When the award presenter said the name aloud, there was a moment of silence in the audience.

Then, applause like a tide resounded throughout the venue.
