Chapter 102 Lao Huang, why did you change your gender?

Did I nominate Best Actor?

Huo Yunting was stunned for a moment, and then his heart skipped a beat.

"Director Wang, do I have a chance to win the Best Actor Award?"

"Whether there is a chance or not, if you can nominate, you will already make a lot of money! You will make a lot of money!"

Wang Xiaoshuai suppressed his voice, but the excitement in his tone could still be heard, and it seemed that he was even more excited than Huo Yunting.

Those who didn’t know better thought he was the one nominated for Best Actor.

The host was still reading out the list of candidates one by one, but Huo Yunting had no intention of starting another round of Snake.

Since I can be nominated for Best Actor, is there really a chance to win it back?

I thought like this in my heart, but in the end they parted ways.

The Best Actor Award at this year's Cannes Film Festival went to Tommy Lee Jones, the star of "The Three Funerals of Escada".

An old white man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties.

It wasn't until the host said the name of the award-winning actor that Huo Yunting's slightly hanging heart was relieved.

If a young man in his early twenties wins the Best Actor Award, he will become famous all over the country.

Counting from beginning to end, there are only two people in the country who have won the best actor award at the Cannes Film Festival, one is Ge You and the other is Liang Chaowei.

If he really wins this award, he will become the third actor in China to win this award.

And he's only 23.

It wasn't until the old white man walked up to the stage to deliver his speech that the unreal feeling in his heart gradually subsided, and Huo Yunting lowered his head and played a game of Snake.

The venue was too noisy, and he didn't want to distract the surroundings. This foreigner "impurity" was more unfamiliar, and it might be difficult to digest and even ruin the stability.

Seeing Huo Yunting lowering his head to play with his mobile phone again, Wang Xiaoshuai couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"Xiao Huo'er, with your mentality, it's only a matter of time before you win the Best Actor Award."

It's easy to say "not surprised" or "favored", but how many people can remain calm in such situations.

He didn't know about the others, but Huo Yunting was definitely one of them.

"I am lucky to have gained it, but I have lost my life. Now I am here to get nominated for Best Actor, and I will make a lot of money."

Today is the 22nd, the last day of the Cannes Film Festival.

After the host finished awarding all the remaining awards, the guests left one after another, and Huo Yunting also walked among the crowd.

Wang Xiaoshuai beside him was still chattering excitedly, saying that this trip was worthwhile.

As soon as he walked out of the front door, a hand suddenly patted his shoulder. When he turned around, he saw a white foreigner with black hair and green eyes.

Looking at the tag around his neck, Huo Yunting knew he was a staff member.

"Are you Mr. Huo Yunting? Mr. Wu from the judging panel wants to meet you."

This was said in his ear, while Wang Xiaoshuai and others just looked on.

After thinking for less than a second, Huo Yunting patted Wang Xiaoshuai on the shoulder and said, "Director Wang, Wu Yusen wants to see me. You guys go back first."

Wang Xiaoshuai's eyes widened, "Damn it! Wu Yusen wants to see you, why don't you go quickly!"

After saying hello to Gao Yuanyuan, Qin Hao and the others, Huo Yunting followed the staff to the backstage through a side door.

The staff at the show are all busy, tearing down the scenery and taking down the stage.

A fat old man who looked kind and friendly was sitting on a chair and looking at a stack of white paper. He didn't know what he was looking at.

"Mr. Wu, Mr. Huo is here."

The staff member said hello to Wu Yusen and turned around to leave, leaving the place to Huo Yunting and the two of them.

"Hello, Director Wu." Huo Yunting extended his hand politely.

"Hello, hello. No need to be so polite, sit down." John Woo smiled cheerfully.

Holding his generous palm, I couldn't believe that such a person could take such violent and beautiful shots.

John Woo looked up and down with admiration in his eyes, and then gave a thumbs up, "It's really amazing."

"When I watched the movie, I really didn't expect that such a rural boy with low self-esteem and introversion would be played by a handsome guy like you."

"Yours is 1.8 meters tall, right? I think you looked like you were only 1.7 meters tall in the movie. How did you do that?"

Huo Yunting smiled and said, "Shrink your neck, bend your legs a little, and bend your waist a little. It's so quiet that you can't tell."

"That's quite tiring."

"No, my back hurts every day while filming."

After chatting with John Woo for a while, Huo Yunting probably guessed how he got this Best Actor nomination.

In the eyes of these judges, his performance as Xiao Gen can only be regarded as relatively outstanding, not the ultimate.

The reason why I was nominated for Best Actor was because I saw what he looked like in real life.

One is a tall and handsome guy, and the other is a timid rural boy. No one can tell that they are played by the same person.

Based on this alone, he is qualified to nominate this actor.

"Young man, do your best, and maybe next time you will be the best actor in Cannes."

"Then I'll lend you your kind words."

After another few words with Wu Yusen, Huo Yunting left and returned to the hotel.

As soon as I arrived at the hotel entrance, I saw Wang Xiaoshuai squatting on the steps smoking. When I saw him walking this way, my eyes lit up and I hurried up.

"How's it going? What did I tell you?"

"I just praised me a few times and said that I didn't expect that the rural boy was actually played by me."

Wang Xiaoshuai suddenly realized.

That's true. It's not too much to nominate a best actor based on this, but Huo Yunting's qualifications are still too young.

"By the way, have you added your contact information?"

Huo Yunting thought for a while and told the truth.

"forget."

"Oh, you said you - forget it, it's okay if you didn't leave your contact information. Just leave a good impression, and you'll need to ask the agency to help contact you in the future..."

Listening to Wang Xiaoshuai nagging in his ears, the two of them walked up the steps into the hotel.

Huo Yunting didn’t know if there was real-time broadcast in China.

Anyway, after he returned to the room and sat down for a while, his cell phone started buzzing like a vibrating egg.

The phone calls and text messages kept coming.

Like Feng Xiaogang, Fan Bingbing, Liu Pinyan, He Kui, Hu Ge, Guo Degang... Even Teacher Xu gave him a call.

"Hello? Brother Hua..."

"Sister Bingbing..."

"No, it's still too early for me to become a real movie star..."

He was so busy dealing with all kinds of phone calls and text messages that night that he didn't even go to a dinner party that Wang Xiaoshuai asked him to have.

"Hello? Sister Hua."

"Yunting, you are really famous this time. Once you win this nomination award, you should be the second youngest nominated actor in the country."

"This nomination for Best Actor is particularly valuable?" Huo Yunting still doesn't understand much about these things.

"If you're nominated, you're a half-step best actor. Who cares how you got your nomination? Now the Internet is full of enthusiasm about you."

I chatted with Wang Jinghua about something else before hanging up the phone.

It's just that Huo Yunting felt a little strange in his heart. Wouldn't it be great to be nominated for Best Actor? Why does Sister Hua's tone sound a little strange and she seems calm?

I turned on my computer and searched online, and sure enough, the news that I was nominated for Best Actor at Cannes had spread all over the Internet.

I don’t know who took the photo of him looking down at his mobile phone. A large number of media were crazy about this photo.

[Only 23-year-old Huo Yunting was nominated for Best Actor at Cannes, but he took it very lightly. You see, even though the host announced the nomination, he was still looking at his phone calmly. 】

[It seems that for him, the important news is far more important than the so-called false actor. Some people are eager for the title of actor, while others are at a loss...]

After reading a few lines of this article, he couldn't stand it anymore and quickly crossed it out. His cheeks felt a little burning.

Fortunately no one was filming from behind, otherwise it would have been really fun to see him playing Snake on his phone.

Wang Jinghua's call should be the last one. Putting down the phone, Huo Yunting went to take a bath and pack his things.
