Behind the stage is the backstage, but this backstage is not a pure waiting area, there is also a photography area. After receiving the award, all the winners of this award ceremony will take some pictures of holding the cup as the official report of the golden dragon award ceremony. This photo session is just after receiving the prize. After the winner receives the prize on stage, he will take photos in the backstage photography area.
After Xiao Yao left the stage from the back channel with the two prize awarding guests, the two prize awarding guests went back to their seats from the side channel to watch the award ceremony. Xiao Yao and the other four prize awardees took photos in the backstage photography area under the guidance of the staff.
The winners of this award are four people. The staff first took a group photo of the four people. After the photos of the four were taken, the staff suggested that Xiao Yao, Zhao Rui and Xu Fei take another one separately.
Kevin Scott knew that Xiao Yao and the three of them were a team. He was not dissatisfied with the staff''s proposal. He took the initiative to withdraw from the photo area and let Xiao Yao and the three of them take another photo.
When the two photos were taken and Xiao Yao returned to their seats in the audience, another award had been presented on the stage. But that award was not nominated by their crew, so they missed it.
After Xiao Yao and others sat in their seats and watched the two awards presented, it was time for their crew to win the nominated awards.
Among the nominations for their crew, the second one is for best editing. The nominees for this award are Mu Ying and editor Russell Seth.
Mu Ying is a Chinese, and Russell Seth is an American. Both of them participated in the award ceremony for the first time and were nominated for the Chinese Film Awards for the first time. Therefore, they both responded greatly. Mu Ying is nervous, while Russell is a little excited. Unfortunately, it''s not them who win the prize.
The action scenes of their Parkour movie are really good-looking, sharp editing, and it''s easy to get excited, but this feeling is more obvious in the action play. In terms of literary drama, there is nothing outstanding in the editing of the film, and in terms of the overall narrative style, the film has no outstanding features, so it''s a pity that muying and Russell didn''t get the award, but it''s not too unexpected.
After the best editing award was awarded, a staff member quietly came to Xiao Yao and his crew to inform them to prepare for the performance. Five people quietly get up, under the leadership of the staff quickly leave the scene, to the dressing room ready.
"This is Yang''s last performance with us. We must perform well later!" After changing his costume, Dean spoke to everyone in the dressing room.
"Do you want to be so solemn?" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I can still perform with you in the future!"
"But you''ve decided to quit the band, but we haven''t made it public yet." Dean said, "so, this is the last time you will perform with us in public as a member of the band. Later, you will cooperate with us. So, I''m not wrong!"
Xiao Yao told the band the night before yesterday that he would formally quit the band. During rehearsal yesterday, Dean and others also asked Xiao Yao when to officially withdraw and whether to make a public statement. Xiao Yao didn''t want to make too much noise, saying that he could just remove his name from the description on the band''s official website and social media account.
The band now belongs to Keith Craig''s "daydream" studio. You need to at least inform Keith and others about the modification of the band''s official website and social media account information. Dean and others want to go back to the United States and explain to Keith before they do it. Xiao Yao certainly has no opinion about this.
Strictly speaking, Xiao Yao has not officially quit the band. However, Xiao Yao did not sign a contract with daydream studio. Keith has no reason to disagree.
The band has no other work itinerary in China and will return to the United States after attending the award ceremony. After Dean and others returned to the United States, the band''s official website and social media account information changed, and Xiao Yao quit. It is estimated that this time will not be too long. So, no surprise, this will be the last time Xiao Yao performs with them as a member of the band.
"Well, you''re right!" Xiao Yao nodded and said, "this is really" the last time ". Let''s take him as my farewell performance and perform well."
"You ~" Dean looked at Xiao Yao.
Although Dean promised Xiao Yao to quit, he was still a little unwilling. At this time, I wanted to use "the last time" to stimulate Xiao Yao. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yao didn''t accept the move at all, and actually took it down according to his own meaning. He was very unhappy.
However, although Dean''s words with Xiao Yao didn''t stimulate Xiao Yao to change his mind, Xiao Yao''s "last time" and "farewell performance" succeeded in stimulating all members of the band, including himself.
The band''s repertoire is the nominated film theme song it''s my life. It''s not the first time five people have performed the song live in public. They all performed this song at the premiere of last year''s film and the all star masters in the United States. However, at this year''s Golden Dragon awards ceremony, the five members of the band worked very hard.Although this is an English song, the popularity of the song has been very high. Although the golden dragon award ceremony is a serious occasion, this rock song is really a very flaming song that can mobilize the atmosphere of the scene. With their extra hard work, the five people successfully ignited the atmosphere of the scene, making many audience and even star guests stand up from their seats, waving their hands and roaring with them.
After the band''s performance, the awarding process of the award ceremony continues.
"Parkour boy" won three nominations in all. At present, they have won the "best action design". After they broke down in the "best editing", the last suspense left is the "best original song" award.
The band members changed their dresses and returned to their seats. It was not long before the "best original song" award was awarded.
The best original song is a relatively new award in the history of "Golden Dragon Award". In the previous Golden Dragon awards, there was only the best film soundtrack, not the original song, which was the award for the theme song of the film. When Xiao Yao won the best new actor with 127 Hours the year before last, there was no such award in the Golden Dragon Award.
Although the Golden Dragon Award is a relatively conservative award, it is not rigid. The types and number of awards are not unchangeable. Since last year, the Golden Dragon awards have been added to meet the requirements of the market and the audience, which is not uncommon in other film festivals or awards.
The best movie soundtrack must be a song specially created for the movie. Even if the song is not required to be officially released after the movie is released, it must at least indicate the nature of the movie theme song or episode at the time of release, so as to represent that the song is created for the movie and can be nominated.
During last year''s Golden Dragon awards, two songs that were originally nominated were disqualified because the organizers found that they were not the original sound of the film, but songs that had been released a long time ago.
Xiao Yao was nominated for an animated feature film at the Golden Dragon Award last year. The theme song of an animated film can also be nominated for the best original song, but there is no original song in that animated film. The theme song of Xiao Yao''s animated film is a very popular old English song. You don''t need to check it to know that it''s not specially made for the film, so he didn''t even get the nomination.
This year is the second time in the history of the golden dragon award that there is a "best original song" award, and it is also the first time that Xiao Yao has been nominated.
Although Xiao Yao and others did not give the "best original song" after the performance, and there were two awards between them, Xiao Yao and others had to change their dress to return to the scene after the performance. When Xiao Yao presented the award after his performance, the band didn''t have time to change their clothes and go to the stage to receive the award. There were two awards in between, which just gave them time to change back to their dresses. What''s more, there is no performance of other songs between their performance and this award.
In terms of the popularity and popularity of the song, it''s not said in the world. Even in terms of China alone, Xiao Yao''s it''s my life is the highest song among all the nominees. However, because it''s an English song, it''s not likely that this song will win a prize in the previous predictions of various media and institutions.
Xiao Yao and others didn''t have much expectation for this award. They thought it was a surprise to get a nomination. However, with the success of winning the "best action design", Xiao Yao and others took an old beauty to the stage to receive the award. Coupled with such a process arrangement of the organizer, Xiao Yao and others unconsciously had more expectations.
The guest of this award is also a combination of a man and a woman. One of the male awarding guests is a composer and a well-known music composer in the film circle, named Cao zhongyun. Another female awarding guest is young female singer Liang Xueying, who has sung many well-known film theme songs.
Liang Xueying has cooperated with Xiao Yao many times, and their good relationship is also well known. However, few people know that Cao zhongyun and Xiao Yao have a lot to do with each other.
Cao zhongyun met Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao''s father and son when he took part in the variety show "day up" of Xiangnan satellite TV. After that, he bought the copyright of "the original scenery of hometown" and "insects fly" from Xiao Siqi, and did the soundtrack and episode of the film. Through those two contacts, Cao zhongyun and Xiao Siqi became very good friends. Later, he played with Xiao Siqi in singer.
Although at first Xiao Siqi didn''t tell Cao zhongyun that the author of the flute and nursery rhyme was his own son, but he made up a mysterious friend of XY, when Cao zhongyun first met them, he saw Xiao Yao playing the flute and playing ukulele in the program. Later, he saw Xiao Yao sing "insects fly" in "where are you going, Dad", and he was also very interested in Xiao Siqi''s evil son Yes. Cao zhongyun is a friend of Xiao Siqi. He has been to Xiao''s home and has a good relationship with Xiao Yao.
Cao zhongyun is mainly behind the scenes. Xiao Siqi is a singer. The only public cooperation between them on stage was in singer. Few people knew that Cao zhongyun and Xiao Siqi had a good relationship, and even fewer knew that Cao zhongyun and Xiao Yao had a relationship. However, as a small partner growing up together, Zhao Rui is clear about the relationship between Cao zhongyun and Xiao Yao.Seeing that the awarding guests are Cao zhongyun and Liang Xueying, Zhao Rui introduces them to others in a low voice. The crew has a little more confidence in Xiao Yao''s winning the award.
After the two prize awarding guests came on stage, they exchanged greetings as usual, and then had a simple chat.
Two awarding guests, one is a composer and a film sounder, the other is a singer. Their careers are all related to music. Naturally, what they talk about is the role of the film theme song in a film. What they said is not much new to most film practitioners, and it is not very attractive to the star guests and the audience. On the contrary, Liang Xueying, in the process of chatting with another awarding guest, looks at Xiao Yao intentionally or unintentionally, which is more noticeable.
However, Liang Xueying and Cao zhongyun did not mention Xiao Yao''s name, nor did they mention the issue of song language, so it is difficult for us to judge whether this award will fall on the band composed of Xiao Yao and four foreign teenagers.
After the simple chat, Liang Xueying read out the name of the award according to the cover of the envelope, and then led everyone to see the clip of the nomination list on the big screen behind the stage.
Because the live performance of Xiao Yao''s band just now was very good, when the movie clip of Xiao Yao''s song was played, the applause was the biggest.
After the broadcast of the nomination clip, Cao zhongyun opened the envelope, read the beginning of the award, then stopped at the name of the winner and handed the envelope to Liang Xueying.
Liang Xueying took a look at the envelope, then subconsciously looked at the position where Xiao Yao was sitting, then bowed her head and read the information of the award-winning song.
After playing the nomination clip, the big screen cut into the close-up of the two award winners on the stage. Although Xiao Yao sits at a certain distance from the stage, he can clearly see the expressions of the two award winners from the big screen.
When Xiao Yao saw Liang Xueying''s face looking in her direction on the big screen, he knew that this award should not be with him.
Sure enough, the winning song read by Liang Xueying is not Xiao Yao''s it''s my life.
The last one to win this award is a Chinese song on the nomination list.
Among the five songs nominated for this award, in addition to Xiao Yao''s it''s my life, the other four are all Chinese songs. Among the other four nominated Chinese songs, the winning one is not the one with the most nominations, but the one with the highest box office and the most popularity. In addition, it is also the most likely winner predicted by the media before.
When media analysis predicted the final ownership of each award, it was analyzed when referring to this award that Xiao Yao''s song is the most deserving one in the nomination list, regardless of the artistry, popularity and role of the song in the film theme. The only problem is the language of the song. It''s not that English songs can''t win the Chinese awards, but compared with Chinese songs, it''s a disadvantage that can''t be ignored. In addition, the identity of the singer is also a big problem.
The award of "best action design" is likely to be big, because their nominees in this award are three Chinese and one American, and the majority of them are Chinese. And the core of the nominees is obviously Xiao Yao, a Parkour team composed of all Chinese. The singer of "best original song" is a band. Although Xiao Yao is a member of the band, there are four Americans and one Chinese in the band. Even if Xiao Yao is regarded as the core of the band, the band signed up with an American studio, which mainly develops in the United States, and is still an American band at all.
From this result, it seems to confirm the previous media prediction and analysis. The Golden Dragon Award is a relatively conservative award. It will not be given to foreigners or nominators who include foreigners easily.
Therefore, Xiao Yao should not be surprised that they didn''t get the "best original song". On the contrary, they should be glad that they got the "best action design". After all, the other nominees are all Chinese!
After "the best original song", the next awards are basically the highlights.
The best man and woman, the best man and woman, the best director and the best film are all very important awards, but these awards have nothing to do with Xiao Yao. It''s not just about the crew, it''s not about them.
Xiao Yao and his elders are not young. Although they have faded out of the film and television industry, the number and speed of their works have declined a lot. This year, it''s not only Xiao Yao who didn''t get a significant nomination for the Golden Dragon Award for their film, but Ye Jiaying and Zhao Tao, who didn''t show their films last year. This year, they didn''t get any nominations and didn''t come to the award ceremony.
For them, some of the following awards are purely theater watching.
