Cloud Peak Scenery
Chapter 32 Best Screenplay Award - Goodbye Mr. Loser
"There's a movie that defied expectations, rising from its lowest point on opening day to achieve a miracle!"
"There's a movie..."
As the host spoke, the movie that won the Best Screenplay Award was about to be revealed.
*Goodbye Mr. Loser*!
"Wuhu!!"
"Teacher Lu, it's our movie! Our movie!"
Ma Li covered her mouth and shouted excitedly, brimming with girlish energy.
Wang Shishi was even crying with joy. "Teacher Lu..."
"Uh..." Lu Xuan looked a little surprised.
Actually, he knew his movie had won as soon as the host said the first sentence.
With a budget of three million, it was definitely the smallest among these dozen movies, with the others having budgets several times larger!
"Now, let's invite the winner, the screenwriter of *Goodbye Mr. Loser*, Lu Xuan!"
The spotlight instantly shone on Lu Xuan in the back row.
All eyes were on him!
This time, the audience erupted in warm applause.
Tang Qiansheng didn't raise his hand, nor did anyone from Shenghua Entertainment.
Watching Lu Xuan wave and smile as he walked onto the stage, Tang Qiansheng couldn't have been more annoyed.
If he could, he definitely wouldn't have let Lu Xuan win.
Unfortunately, he could only interfere with the movies of his own company.
Lu Xuan stood on the stage, savoring this long-lost feeling.
"I'm back."
He smiled faintly and looked down at the stage.
The gazes of the audience were either approving, doubtful, or curious.
"Hello everyone, I'm Lu Xuan."
Lu Xuan took the microphone and spoke calmly, exuding an invisible charm, as if he were born that way.
Many of the women in the audience had their eyes lit up.
At this moment, Lu Xuan was undoubtedly the most handsome man.
Su Yao looked at Lu Xuan's calm expression and couldn't sense a trace of nervousness from him.
Her impression of Lu Xuan deepened even more.
After some polite and clichéd remarks, Lu Xuan turned his gaze to Tang Qiansheng of Shenghua Entertainment.
His clear voice echoed throughout the venue.
"In the future, I will bring you better and more amazing works."
"A truly good movie is never limited to one aspect. It won't be hastily defined as a bad movie just because the actors involved are not famous."
"Good acting and content are what make a work that everyone loves."
Lu Xuan's words implied one thing.
In this era of traffic and popularity, traffic is certainly important, but only good acting can make a good movie.
Instead of forcibly consuming the audience's viewing experience with mere appearance and price.
Everyone present understood what Lu Xuan meant.
Many people looked strange, and some were disdainful.
Those who fight against the times will eventually get lost in them.
Especially the Shenghua Entertainment group, represented by Tang Qiansheng, who advocated traffic supremacy, were now looking at Lu Xuan like a clown.
"Heh, you just got lucky with one movie, and you really think you're someone?"
Facing Lu Xuan's grandstanding, Tang Qiansheng smiled and didn't take it to heart at all.
While some people opposed, others naturally agreed.
The older generation of veteran actors were now watching Lu Xuan with great interest.
In this young man's eyes, they saw a belief that shone like a star.
Some people challenge the times and are buried by them.
But there are always some people who appear in this era to change it!
They were looking forward to Lu Xuan.
"Well, thank you, Director Lu, for your speech. Next, we will start awarding the Best..."
The film festival continued.
Lu Xuan returned to his seat with the crystal trophy.
As soon as he sat down, the trophy was snatched away by Li Hao.
"Good stuff! Good stuff! Is this the real deal? I think I've seen it in my dreams!"
Lu Xuan watched Li Hao with a smile, letting him handle the trophy as he pleased.
The others also leaned over to take a look, looking at the trophy with curiosity.
Ma Li's envious tears flowed from the corners of her mouth. "I wish I could win an award too."
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "There will always be a chance."
Ma Li and the others were not bad at acting, and they were willing to work hard. Most importantly, they had a good foundation.
They would eventually make a name for themselves.
"Then I'll take your kind words, Teacher Lu!"
Everyone whispered excitedly around the trophy. Su Yao glanced at it twice and then looked away.
Her expression was a little moved. "Actually... you didn't have to do that."
Su Yao was referring to the words Lu Xuan said at the end.
She thought Lu Xuan was trying to vent his anger for her, so he impulsively made remarks that offended people.
If Lu Xuan had only had a conflict with Tang Qiansheng before, he would have only offended one Shenghua Entertainment at most.
Although Shenghua Entertainment was huge, it couldn't cover the sky with one hand in the country.
But the meaning Lu Xuan expressed just now had offended the entire entertainment industry.
What he was going to do would invisibly move many people's cheese!
The road ahead would become more and more difficult for Lu Xuan.
"It's okay, it's not entirely for you." Lu Xuan smiled lightly.
Looking at the award recipients walking up and down the stage, his eyes were deep.
"An actor is a sacred profession."
"If an actor relies solely on their face instead of their acting skills and abilities, then this indicates that the country's entertainment industry is already sick to the bone!"
"When everyone gets used to this state, do you think it's right? It's not right!"
They call an ambulance for a scraped knee and only recite 123456 when they find the lines too long.
Lu Xuan had seen too much of this situation in the past few months!
It was even more serious than in the other world.
How could there be a future for such an entertainment industry?
Tilting his head to look at Su Yao, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
Lu Xuan was beginning to understand why the radar showed Su Yao's location when he wanted to find the best actress.
Compared to those actors, Su Yao was so hardworking that it was heartbreaking!
Lu Xuan still remembered that after *Xianmo Qingyuan* was completed, before the movie was released.
Su Yao had already taken on the filming of her next movie and was actively preparing for it.
Every night, she would stand in front of the mirror, constantly reciting her lines.
Even when eating, she would not let go of the script.
Whenever she had free time, Su Yao would close her eyes and try to perform the role she played in the play.
She was truly someone who wanted to dedicate a good movie to the audience.
During that time, Su Yao transformed herself into the character in the play.
All this effort was what a true actor should do!
Therefore, Lu Xuan had always admired Su Yao's professionalism in his heart.
Like the system's evaluation, Su Yao was definitely the most suitable female lead.
Unfortunately, she was forced by Shenghua to no longer want to act.
"Hiss—"
Taking a deep breath, Lu Xuan suppressed his emotions.
He hid the idea of inviting Su Yao to act in his heart.
No hurry, there's plenty of time.
Lu Xuan looked at Su Yao and said the last sentence in a low and firm voice, only the two of them could hear.
"So, I want to become... someone who changes this era."
Some things always need someone to do, always need someone to do it!
Even if it ends up in shattered bones and a mess, even if it's a one-way trip, then so be it!
In an instant, Su Yao's bright eyes sparkled, filled with the shadow of the man in front of her.
Tall, like a mountain!
