...
"An outstanding performance, congratulations."
Harrison Ford presents the award to William and then hugs Wu Mu, patting his arm and quietly offering encouragent before handing over the trophy and certificate.
Wu Mu holds both items, curiously looking down; the certificate is rolled into a cylinder tied with a red ribbon, obscuring the words.
The trophy, a silver palm branch embedded in crystal, isn’t as striking as the previous golden cara but uses the palm branch, a symbol of the Cannes Film Festival.
"It’s an honor to win Best Actor. I’ve been preparing for this mont for a long ti, ever since I first participated in Cannes 26 years ago."
"I still rember that year, Best Actor was Keo Bowers. As a newcor actor, watching from the audience, I couldn’t quite grasp the significance of Cannes Best Actor until I saw Keo cry on stage. That was when I felt what Cannes Best Actor truly ans..."
Though a bit dissatisfied and regretful of the dual winners this year, winning Best Actor at Cannes is still sothing.
On stage, William feels relieved but also dazed as he reflects on his pursuit of Cannes.
After his speech, it’s Wu Mu’s turn.
Wu Mu glances around the venue, pauses for a few seconds, waits till it’s completely quiet, then smiles and waves at Lin Qingyue.
Audience: "..."
The audience is speechless.
Once is enough, and everyone applauds with blessings.
But you’re doing it a second ti?
This is too much.
Just kill us to make it more exciting for you two.
"Best Actor Award, this is for the Best Director of our film." Wu Mu smiles and hands over the trophy.
Lin Qingyue, with watery eyes, accepts it.
During the acceptance speech, Harrison Ford playfully passes the microphone to Lin Qingyue, jokingly saying, "Then let’s have our Best Actor share his feelings now."
Wu Mu had spoken for Lin Qingyue earlier, and now it’s Qingyue’s turn to speak for Wu Mu.
However, expressing love for film on Wu Mu’s behalf seems entirely irrelevant.
Not just Lin Qingyue, even Shu i knows that the boss has no sanctified ambitions towards films.
Holding the microphone, Lin Qingyue doesn’t speak in Wu Mu’s tone but gazes into the distance, recalling their first eting, then slowly begins to talk.
...
After the unexpected dual winners for Best Actor, the award ceremony wasn’t over yet.
There was still Best Actress.
Theoretically, Lin Qingyue also had a chance, given she acted in a film too.
But just theoretically; she wasn’t likely to win Best Actress at Cannes.
Next was Best Director.
Lin Qingyue was also a hot candidate for this award.
But...
Lin Qingyue slightly shook her head, "Winning the Golden Cara basically ans no chance; Cannes rarely awards Best First Feature and Best Director to the sa person."
The roles would repeat.
If there’s a Best Director, there’s no need for the Golden Cara.
However, since the Golden Cara is a one-ti opportunity award for directors, it’s still decent.
As expected, the Best Director award finally went to the director of William Hans’s film.
Next was the Jury Prize.
"The Jury Prize goes to..."
"Separation!"
...
After more than two hours, the closing ceremony of this year’s Cannes Film Festival finally ca to an end.
The initially red-hot "Death Mail" ultimately won the Golden Palm Award.
Though the film won only this one award, its prestige remained extrely high.
Because the concept upheld by the Cannes jury is that "the Golden Palm already encompasses its comprehensive achievents."
One trophy represents full achievent.
The second big winner, who could rival the biggest winner, naturally was Wu Mu and his team.
Sweeping the Golden Cara, Best Actor, and Jury Prize, a total of three major awards.
Winning so much, naturally, upon exiting the Cannes award ceremony, Wu Mu was imdiately surrounded by major dia.
They interviewed them with various questions.
Yes, during the interviews, "Hollywood Reporter" also disclosed a bit of inside information.
"Wu, what do you think about this year’s jury president, director Matthew, who, in a closed-door eting, favored you, and, when overall voting was against you and William was set to win, used his award allocation suggestion rights to propose two Best Actors and used a deciding vote for your victory?"
Listening to the Hollywood Reporter’s question, Wu Mu was montarily stunned.
The dual winners maneuver was orchestrated by Matthew Albert?
The Cannes jury president doesn’t hold veto power but certainly has advantages, such as leading the agenda, deciding discussion directions, proposing award allocations, arranging speaking orders, etc.
If voting reaches a deadlock, like a 4-4 tie, the jury president’s vote becos the deciding vote, favoring the side they vote for.
Judging from the reporter’s question, if it weren’t for Matthew Albert, would he not have won Best Actor this ti?
Wu Mu silently heard this.
It seems the value of his Cannes Best Actor title might have decreased slightly.
But still, as the saying goes.
Wu Mu calmly looked at the questioning reporter, "I believe my performance winning Best Actor isn’t about any bias operation. I don’t think director Matthew was favoring , and I even think it’s worth asking if so jury mbers hold any preconceived notions about ."
Yes, he was so outstanding that winning Best Actor at Cannes really doesn’t require shady maneuvers.
