Chapter 1216 Overtime speech

  The four Xiaoyao smiled and got up to hug and celebrate with the other crew beside them. They also accepted the congratulations of some stars on the front and back seats, and lined up to walk quickly onto the stage.

  "A handsome guy in the water!" Xu Ben smiled, "This may be the group of winners with the highest appearance and stature in the technical awards, right?"

Needless to say, Xiao Yao and the other three actors, although Kevin Scott, a white American, is behind the scenes, he is an action coach and he also exercises for a long time. He has a very good body and a tough look. It can be called a sportsman. All four of them are more than 1.8 meters tall, so it is indeed very seductive to walk on stage together.

  Hearing Xu Ben's words, the audience below cheered again.

  The winners must first greet the award-presenting guests. None of the four had cooperated with Zhou Nian'an. After taking the stage, they just bowed politely and shook hands with Zhou Nian'an. Tian Xinhui is a woman, Zhao Rui, Xu Fei, and Kevin only shook hands politely, but when it was Xiao Yao's turn, Tian Xinhui took the initiative to open his arms.

   "Little male god, long time no see!" Tian Xinhui raised his arms and smiled while looking at Xiao Yao.

   Xiao Yao didn’t twitch, smiled and stretched out his arms to hug Tian Xinhui: "Sister Goddess, long time no see!"

  This is not the first time Xiao Yao and Tian Xinhui have seen each other. When he was in high school, Xiao Yao participated in a reality show of cross-border fashion star on Donghai TV. At that time, Tian Xinhui was one of five actresses who cross-border modelling, and Xiao Yao was one of the flying guests. At the beginning of the show, their titles were male gods and goddesses.

   "Congratulations!"

   "Thank you!"

  The stage is not a place to retell the past. The two said to each other again and they separated.

   "Xinhui, why do you treat Xiao Yao differently from others?" Xu Ben on the side of the stage said in a general way, "I just said that they are a team, you can't treat them differently!"

  When the awards session progressed, the two hosts did not leave the stage, but stood on one side of the stage, and they could also communicate with the award-giving guests and winners in the middle of the stage at any time.

   "I and Zhao Rui are different!" Xiao Yao looked at Xu Ben and leaned forward to the microphone to explain, "I learned Taekwondo from Sister Xinhui, can I be like Zhao Rui and others?"

   "Oh, you still learned Taekwondo from Xinhui?" Xu Ben smiled, "Xinhui has won the Asian Championship of Taekwondo before. You learned from her, is Taekwondo also very good? Can you show us?"

   "Oh oh~" Xu Ben said, and many of the audience below roared and clamored.

   "Brother Ben, this is the award ceremony. I dress like this. You let me kick on the stage of the award ceremony?" Xiao Yao said helplessly.

   "I think it can!" Xu Ben nodded solemnly.

   "It's not impossible, but unless you can let Sister Xinhui show it too!" Xiao Yao smiled, "If there is a comparison, everyone will know if I am doing well!"

   "No!" Tian Xinhui said immediately.

   "Well, let go of you two!" Xu Ben looked at the long skirt Tian Xinhui was wearing, and shook his head with a smile.

  "Please two award-presenting guests present awards to the winners!" Tong Yishu came forward and pulled the rhythm back.

  Zhou Nian'an took the trophy from the hostess beside him and handed it out. Xiao Yao originally wanted Kevin Scott to come forward to accept the award, but was pushed out by the other three. He had no choice but to take the trophy from Zhou Nian'an as a representative.

  "Please give the winners a testimonial!" Tong Yishu said.

  Xiao Yao waved his hand to Kevin Scott and made a please gesture, put the trophy in his hand into his hand, and motioned for him to give his acceptance speech.

  Kevin did not decline this time. He took the trophy handed by Xiao Yao and walked to the microphone and said a speech about the award. Kevin doesn't speak Chinese, so this acceptance speech is in English.

   "Xiao Yao, help translate!" When Kevin finished speaking, Xu Ben nodded Xiao Yao's name again.

"Okay!" Xiao Yao walked to the microphone and smiled triumphantly. "Kevin said that he is a parkour enthusiast and our parkour team is his idol. He can participate in this film. It is a great honor for him to talk about parkour movies, work with idols, and work for the idol team. It is a great honour for him to stand here today to receive the award. It is an unexpected surprise. He can no longer ask for more. He just wanted to say, thank you YRF team!"

  The audience below "噫~" gave a round of applause, but among the applause, there were some boos.

   "Why are there boos?" Xiao Yao said with a dissatisfied expression, "I did the translation according to the truth! I don't believe that there are no English speakers below, you know what I'm telling the truth!"

"I think the key is not whether your translation is true or not. The key is your translation and the expression on your face when translating." Xu Ben smiled, "If Zhao Rui or Xu Fei came to translate, I don't think the following There will be boos!"

  The audience below "ha~" listened to Xu Ben's interpretation, and laughed again.

   "Okay, let them both say!" Xiao Yao stepped back and gave Zhao Rui and Xu Fei the position in front of the microphone.

  Kevin Scott is very interesting and handed the trophy to Zhao Rui. Speaking of acceptance speeches, of course, it’s cooler to hold the trophy in your hand.

  Zhao Rui and Xu Fei took turns to talk about the award. Both of them spoke briefly, and they were nothing special. They were basically thankful words.

  Although Xiao Yao had already spoken, before the award was given, it was to explain his relationship with Tian Xinhui, and to deal with Xu Ben’s ridicule and embarrassment. After the award, he translated Kevin Scott’s words. He himself had not said the award speech. After Zhao Rui and Xu Fei finished talking, Xu Fei returned the trophy to Xiao Yao, and Xiao Yao stood back in front of the microphone.

"Zhao Rui and Xu Fei have finished thanking the people we want to thank. When I am here, there seems to be no more people left for me to thank!" Xiao Yao smiled into the microphone, "I don't want to repeat what they said. , So I plan to say something else!"

   "Something else?" Many people showed strange expressions.

Xiao Yao looked down at the trophy in his hand, and then said: "The success of our movie is inseparable from the sport of parkour and the parkour enthusiasts. These words of mine are mainly about parkour hobbies. The people said."

  "What else can you say besides thanking?" Some people wondered in their hearts.

"Although the Golden Dragon Award is a movie award of China, it is only broadcast live in China, but I believe that after the award ceremony, the video of the award ceremony will appear on the Internet. Not only on the network of China, but also on foreign video sites and social media. There will be.” Xiao Yao said, “I said these words to parkour enthusiasts all over the world. In order to avoid the trouble of translation, I will use English in my speech below, but it’s not that I deliberately pretended to be that. English!"

   "The more you say that, the more it feels that you are showing on purpose!" Xu Ben smiled.

"Then treat me as a show!" Xiao Yao turned his head and smiled at Xu Ben. After turning back, he straightened his face and said in English, "When we made this movie, part of the production funds came from the Internet. Crowdfunding. Crowdfunding is not an investment activity, and there is no financial return. Specifically for our project, as long as we complete the film and make it public, we have completed the promise of this crowdfunding project. Now we have completed it. This movie, this movie has also been screened around the world, so this project has already been completed."

   "What the **** does he want to say?" Even the live audience who could understand English did not quite understand what Xiao Yao wanted to say.

  At the same time, a reminder in front of Xiao Yao also lit a red light.

  At the award ceremony, the time for the guests to speak is limited. The red light in front of Xiao Yao reminded him that it was time to speak.

"This movie is profitable, that is to say, all capital investment has economic benefits." Xiao Yao saw the red light, but continued regardless, "The crowdfunding funds are also available. Economic benefits. Crowdfunding funds come from netizens, so this part of the economic benefits should not belong to the team that initiated the crowdfunding. However, according to the principle of crowdfunding, we cannot give this part of the proceeds to those who participate in the crowdfunding. Participate in the crowd. The netizens who raised are basically parkour enthusiasts, so we..."

When Xiao Yao said this, he paused for a while, stretched out his arms and pulled Zhao Rui and Xu Fei to his side, holding their shoulders and continuing: "We! We decided to use this part of the proceeds to establish a fund. For the promotion of parkour."

   "Oh~" Someone in the audience screamed in exclamation. It was obvious that some of the audience who understood Xiao Yao's English speech were surprised and surprised.

  At this time, Xiao Yao discovered that the red light in front of him that prompted the time to speak had disappeared magically.

"We are not telling you that we will do this, but we are telling you that we have already done it." Zhao Rui knew what Xiao Yao was talking about, and noticed that the red light on the reminder in front of Xiao Yao disappeared, so he moved to the microphone. He smiled and took a sentence. Of course, he also speaks English.

  Since the red light disappeared, Xiao Yao decided to speak in more detail.

"Yes," Xiao Yao continued, "After the box office share of the movie was received last year, we set up this fund based on the proportion of the crowdfunding funds in the total production cost and took out a part of the box office proceeds. Later, the film We also transfer part of the proceeds from the copyrights sold on various TV stations and online streaming media in various countries to this fund proportionally. The subsequent sale and rental of audio and video products, as well as some streaming media’s fee-based on-demand and other long-term shares The same is true for income."

  Speaking of this, Xiao Yao firmly pressed Xu Fei's shoulder with his right hand. Xu Fei understood, and smiled into the microphone and inserted a sentence in English: "For this, we have also set up a company!"

"The purpose of setting up this fund is to promote the sport of parkour, so we set up a sports promotion company to manage this fund and take charge of the promotion of parkour." Xiao Yao continued, "After the box office share is received, the fund is established. , The company was also established. In the past nearly ten months, the company has held nearly 20 parkour events in seven cities in North America. With the development of the company and the fund, the future will be in Europe, In Asia, South America, Oceania, and even Africa, this company will hold parkour competitions and continue to promote the sport!"

  "Oh oh~" At this point, some audience members have already applauded.

  "Finally, remind me that parkour is a dangerous sport." Xiao Yao said, "Please pay attention to safety when you study and practice!"

  When Xiao Yao said this, it means that his speech is over. The three of them bowed to the camera again, ending this speech.

  "Thank you for your speeches!" Tong Yishu on the side of the stage smiled, "Due to time, we won't translate your long speech!"

  At the awards ceremony, all guests' speeches are time-limited. The reminder is something on the stage of many awards ceremonies. The red light is to remind the guests to speak overtime and let it end quickly. If the guest does not care, the host will even find an opportunity to interrupt and cleverly help the guest to end the speech.

  Normal speaking, it is impossible for the organizer of any award to give Xiao Yao such a long time to speak. However, after listening to Xiao Yao’s previous content, the live broadcaster realized that Xiao Yao’s speech was very special, so he turned off the red light on the reminder, and did not let the host interrupt it. Ren Xiaoyao finished speaking and could say It broke an extra case for Xiao Yao and the others.

  First of all, this matter is very positive. After making this movie, Xiao Yao completed the crowdfunding project. The copyright of the film belongs to a few of them, and all the related income is naturally theirs, but they use the proceeds of the crowdfunding to establish a fund and a company to promote the sport, giving people an impression of not being greedy for money.

  In today’s movie market, there are many bad movies that have been criticized by viewers as being made purely for money. This approach of Xiao Yao and the others is equivalent to telling everyone that some filmmakers don't just go to make movies, but of course it is worthy of publicity.

  Secondly, Xiao Yao said this passage to all parkour enthusiasts around the world, and it is also very topical. It is foreseeable that after the awards ceremony, their speech will definitely appear on many foreign video websites and social media, and the scope of dissemination will be very wide.

  Xiao Yao said this at the Golden Dragon Awards. After seeing this video, foreign netizens will naturally become curious about when Xiao Yao said these words, so let's find out by the way. Therefore, after these videos are disseminated, they are not only to help filmmakers establish their image, but also to establish an image for Chinese filmmakers in the world, but also to promote the Golden Dragon Award itself.

  It was precisely considering these two points that the live director did not interrupt Xiao Yao and allowed him to finish. However, it is an exception to give Xiao Yao such a long time to finish this passage. Obviously, the live director cannot let the host or Xiao Yao take the time to translate these remarks on the spot. Moreover, the impact of Xiao Yao's remarks was after the fact, not on the scene, and there was not much need for on-site translation.

   "But I still have to say one more thing," Xu Ben gave the three of them a thumbs up, "You did a beautiful job! Great!"

   "Thank you!" The three said to Xu Ben.

   "Thank you for the two award-giving guests, and congratulations to our winners!" Tong Yishu guided the audience to applause the people on the stage again.

  The four Xiao Yao bowed to the audience again, and then under the guidance of the lady of etiquette, they left the stage with the two award-giving guests from the back.
