Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 451: Grasp of Immortality
At the entrance of Shanghai World Expo Center, a conspicuous wide red carpet covers the road in front of the Expo Center. At both ends of the red carpet stand many media reporters and some curious onlookers, including some fans holding light signs.
At a glance, most of the posts are written with "papi Jiang" and "Muziqi". As to whether they are real fans or fake fans, it is naturally unknown.
In an open space in the middle of the red carpet, a huge signature wall was erected with the golden words "Golden Second Award Ceremony" in the center. There were also many cameras and equipment surrounding it, broadcasting the scene in real time.
At this moment , live broadcast rooms for the "Golden Second Award Ceremony Live Broadcast" have already appeared simultaneously on major live broadcast platforms, and a large number of people are paying attention to this unique award ceremony.
At this time, two hosts, a man and a woman, were standing in front of the autograph wall. The man was wearing a neat black suit, a neatly slicked-back hair and black-framed glasses, and at first glance he looked very professional.
The woman was wearing a black evening gown and had a professional smile on her face.
"Hello, everyone. I am the host Ren Dong." Ren Dong introduced himself in an orderly manner with a faint smile on his face.
"Hello everyone, I am the host Xiaoyou." Xiaoyou smiled sweetly and waved towards the camera.
"Everyone is welcome to watch the live broadcast of the Golden Second Award. Today, we two partners will host the show and bring you the entire live broadcast of the Golden Second Award..." Ren Dong held a cue card and explained the relevant content of the award ceremony very professionally.
"At the same time, today's award ceremony has also set up an online voting session. The votes in your hands may determine the winner of tonight's awards!" Xiaoyou said in a quirky way to set the mood.
At this time, a Rolls-Royce had slowly stopped at the starting point of the red carpet not far away, and it was obvious that the guests were about to appear.
"We can see that the guests are ready to enter..." Ren Dong controlled the rhythm of the scene in an orderly manner.
At this time, the on-site broadcast camera also locked on the starting point of the red carpet, and the media reporters also perked up. After waiting for so long, this Golden Second Award was finally about to begin.
Hurry up, finish the work early, the weather is too cold!
In online live broadcast rooms, many barrages express their thoughts more directly.
"Fuck, a Rolls-Royce? This award ceremony is too luxurious."
"Why does it feel more high-profile than the Golden Horse Awards?"
“Is it necessary to make such a big fuss for just some creators who shoot short videos?”
"This ceremony feels even more exaggerated than that of a celebrity. So extravagant. Wow!"
Not only the barrage, but even the on-site host Ren Dong was amazed by the scene. This award ceremony might be the pinnacle of his hosting career.
Xiaoyou on the side had her beautiful eyes wandering. This so-called short video awards ceremony has made such a big fuss. Doesn’t it just illustrate the prospects of this industry?
Maybe I will have a chance to work hard in this area...
Ideas like these are like small seeds planted in the minds of many viewers watching the Golden Second Awards live broadcast. As for how many of them can take root and sprout, it is unknown.
Of course, most people still think that going to such great lengths to hold such an award ceremony is nothing more than a publicity stunt and a loss-making endeavor.
Is it necessary to make a short video more grand than a movie?
As for this question, naturally, everyone has their own opinion.
At least for Zhou Dongsheng, it is very necessary!
After all, only Zhou Dongsheng has witnessed with his own eyes how brilliant the future of short videos is, and the cruel 80/20 rule dictates that only the final winner can enjoy this glory.
The winner takes all and the loser eats dust. If you want to be the final winner, you can’t avoid spending money and making investments in the early stages.
This award ceremony itself is destined to lose money, but Zhou Dongsheng has to do it even if it means losing money, and he will continue to do it in the future.
After all, you spend a fortune on horse bones, not to make soup. It would be a loss to use them to make soup, but the title of "first" is very important.
Especially since there is less than a year left before the big winner "Sima Yi" appears on the stage, Zhou Dongsheng naturally wants to establish his own advantages as much as possible and block other people's paths, so that he will have a chance.
I just don’t know if I will end up becoming Wang Mang and fall at the feet of the Son of Destiny?
In this regard, Zhou Dongsheng could only say that he would wait and see. Even if he lost in the end, he would not lose money by selling his shares and would still be able to get out of it safely.
After all, Zhou Dongsheng has nothing and his whole body is full of escape routes.
Thinking of this, the concierge outside opened the car door. Zhou Dongsheng got out of the car with a confident smile on his face, as if he could feel the tangible attention falling on him.
Flash lights flashed from time to time, and the camera faithfully recorded this scene. Although it was not as exaggerated as the flash lights as bright as daylight at the International Film Festival, it also allowed Zhou Dongsheng to fulfill his dream of walking on the red carpet for the first time in his life.
I have to say, this feeling of being the center of attention is pretty good, and it doesn't hurt to be in the spotlight once in a while.
At the same time, Principal Wang on the other side also got out of the car and waved his hand very freely, looking like a star.
After them, Ding Sanshi also got out of the car in an orderly manner and stood right between the two of them. The three of them stood together as the opening guests of the Golden Second Awards.
The three of them almost monopolized more than half of the popularity and topics of the entire Golden Second Awards. It can even be said that many viewers came for them, while the real "protagonists" received very limited attention.
However, I believe that after this Golden Second Award, this situation will soon be reversed, and their taking the lead in the opening ceremony also established the value of the Golden Second Award.
The elegant and easy-going Ding Sanshi naturally had no objection to this opening arrangement. After all, he was not from the entertainment industry and did not care about his status.
His status is there, and any impact on him will be minimal. As for participating in this award ceremony, apart from deciding to invest, it was more of a spur of the moment event.
As for this little scene in front of them, both Principal Wang and Ding Sanshi were used to it. Only Zhou Dongsheng felt a little bit fresh about it.
Two young men, one on the left and one on the right, surrounded Ding Sanshi and walked towards the signature wall, leaving their names on the wall in a casual manner.
"Please stay, the three of you. I believe that the audience must be familiar with the famous President Ding. Many of the audience should be loyal users of the pig factory. As for why President Ding attended the Golden Second Award, many people must be very curious. Let us interview President Ding..."
Ren Dong read the interview script skillfully and handed the microphone to Ding Sanshi.
Zhou Dongsheng looked at the long-lost "Grasp of the Undying" and felt a little familiar, but the man who dared to show off Faker was particularly well-behaved in front of Ding Sanshi.
Maybe it’s because the version has not yet reached the strong period of “Grasp of the Undying”.
As for why the official host of LPL appeared here, it was naturally because Zhou Dongsheng asked Principal Wang for it. As Principal Wang had just won the right to host the LPL league, it was natural for him to second two hosts with just a word.
Although there are many professional hosts to choose from, for Zhou Dongsheng, an old e-sports fan, he just regards it as a way to satisfy his own selfish desires.
After setting a precedent .
Unfortunately, those familiar faces have not yet appeared on the LPL stage.
Otherwise, such a good opportunity would naturally not be Ren Dong's turn.
Ding Sanshi spoke a set of words without any mistakes. It was natural for him to deal with this kind of situation.
What's more, he is just here as a spectator today. The opportunity to show off should be given to the young people, as he has no shortage of it.
Zhou Dongsheng and Principal Wang didn't say much nonsense. After a few polite words, the three of them walked into the venue.
After all, they are all guests today, not here to steal the show.
Although there is a meaning of "throwing jade to attract bricks", the stage should be left to the protagonists of tonight.
