This ans she can et Bo Yan again.
Since parting ways in Venice, both have arrived in Canada. Though initially thinking that being in the sa country would increase the chances of eting, once they dive into work, they both beco workaholics. Xia Siyu’s fight scenes in Quebec have suddenly increased, and she feels exhausted every day from martial arts training. Not to ntion being too tired to see Bo Yan, even if he cos to find her, she lacks the interest to entertain him.
Bo Yan is no different. After arriving in Vancouver, he diligently fild for more than a month at the location. During intervals initially reserved for rest, he spent ti with Song Fengzhi discussing North Arican distribution and also researched strategies for hitting Bosch Corporation financially, consulting with financial experts.
Just a few days ago, he wrapped filming and specifically flew to Arica to et those financial experts.
Xia Siyu, during the final phase of filming, returned to the hotel, took a shower, wore a bathrobe and a dry hair cap, and sent ssages from the hotel’s sofa. Putting her situation aside, she asked Bo Yan: "How are you now?"
Bo Yan replied honestly: "I’m in New York, have so people to et in the next two days."
Xia Siyu knows he’s juggling multiple roles in North Arica, but she’s not concerned with specifics. From his words, she estimates the likelihood of Bo Yan visiting her before wrapping up is slim.
Xia Siyu also reminded him: "But, in a few days, we’ll be going to the Golden Moon Award ceremony, okay?"
Bo Yan nodded: "Yes, so I need to quickly finish up my current matters."
The Golden Moon Awards announced the nominee list around the sa ti as the Venice Film Festival. Xia Siyu successfully made it into the Best Actress selection with "Divine Catcher".
Golden Moon Awards mainly target the Hong Kong circle. Over the years, with the gradual decline of Hong Kong and overseas Chinese films, its status has diminished significantly, becoming a form of self-entertainnt within Hong Kong. Last year, Xia Siyu’s "Yu Beauty" also made the list, but ultimately lost to a veteran in the film industry.
This year, despite "Divine Catcher" being a huge hit in Southeast Asia, popularity doesn’t guarantee awards. In contrast, so mainstream awards are more exclusionary towards these comrcial films. During the peak of the Golden Moon Awards, they would even intentionally lower scores for high-grossing films to ensure artistry. Although Xia Siyu’s performance was impeccable, it’s uncertain if she will win.
Especially, with Xia Siyu having had three shots, competing against Shang Feifei three tis, where she needs at least two trophies to barely tie with Shang Feifei.
Although her films this year are decent, with a high-grossing "Divine Catcher" and well-received "Sunrise", and Wang Ju’s "Overthrows the Country and the City" from last year also warming up, poised for release during National Day. Its release timing might hit the final evaluation period for the Gold Oscar.
But sotis film awards decisions are very unpredictable; if it’s a flourishing year with many excellent works, the complexity doubles. Even if your quality is good, every festival has its preferences, and judging committees have considerations; if your nominated work isn’t favored by the judges, it might still be dismissed. There’s also a chance of situations like the Venice Film Festival, where the committee balances Best Actress and Best Picture, resulting in Xia Siyu painfully losing what might be her first Best Actress win.
Therefore, she maintains a particularly calm mindset, participation in the award ceremony is necessary, with another reason being: attending the Golden Moon Awards ans entering Hong Kong, where the epidemic prevention asures aren’t as strict as China’s dostic ones, and having been vaccinated, only a seven-day quarantine with a nucleic acid test certificate is needed.
As special individuals, they can apply for specialized channels for quarantine, and after dical inspection, can go out, but must wear masks and report whereabouts.
Bo Yan doesn’t have a film nominated this year for the Golden Moon Award, yet he still heads there to discuss cooperation with filmmakers.
Though Xia Siyu repeatedly ntioned to him that being so divided in focus makes it hard to improve his acting skills, he’s still "resting on his laurels", relying on past experience to stay in place—even if his stagnation is still top-tier. However, if he focuses entirely on acting, his achievents could be greater.
Bo Yan also understands, but for now, he hasn’t settled the Bosch Corporation issue. The new company is on the right track, yet without his guidance, it’s hard to proceed.
