On the night of June 28, the Magnolia Award of the 29th Shanghai TV Festival was announced, like a meteor across the night sky, instantly igniting the passion and heated discussions of the entire entertainment industry.
Zhou Xun, an evergreen in the entertainment industry, won the Best Actress Award for "Imperfect Victim".
At that moment, she seemed to be standing at the top of the world, shining brightly.
This award is undoubtedly another brilliant pearl in her acting career, illuminating her way forward.
Behind this light, there is a different story.
Tang Yan, who has attracted much attention, missed out on Magnolia in this fierce competition.
As a result, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, it stirred up a thousand waves.
For a while, the storm of public opinion swept in, and the debate about whether Tang Yan was just running with him was overwhelming.
Some people say that Tang Yan was doomed to the end from the beginning in this competition, she was just a supporting role in this feast, coming and leaving in a hurry.
But is that really the case? Could it be that all her hard work and dedication are just a passing moment? Or, is there an unknown insider and mystery behind this?
Let's turn the clock back to the afternoon of June 29, when Tang Yan posted photos of the Magnolia scene.
In the photo, she looks indifferent, like a lotus flower out of the mud and unstained, unmoved by the hustle and bustle of the world.
There seemed to be a kind of detachment in her eyes, a relief of gains and losses.
Is this really all that goes into her heart?
You must know that Tang Yan has paid too much for this competition.
Her wonderful performance in "Flowers" is obvious to all.
She threw herself into the role, and every expression, every movement, was carefully crafted.
She has spent countless days and nights pondering over and over again for a shot, racking her brains for a line.
Her efforts, like a starry star, lit up the entire set.
However, the end result was not satisfactory.
Is it just bad luck? Or is there a misalignment of the judges' vision? Or are the rules of the entertainment industry too complex to be elusive?
Perhaps, Tang Yan's indifference is just a disguise.
Beneath her calm exterior, perhaps a lost heart is hidden.
After all, who wouldn't want to lift a trophy that symbolizes glory on such a stage? Who can really care about such an honor?
Looking at Zhou Xun again, her success is no accident.
Over the years, with her excellent acting skills, she has laid a foundation of her own in the entertainment industry.
Each of her roles is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and is unforgettable.
This performance in "Imperfect Victim" brought her acting skills to the extreme.
But does this mean that Tang Yan's acting skills are not as good as hers?
In the world of competition and variables in the entertainment industry, one gain or loss cannot determine everything.
Although Tang Yan passed by Magnolia this time, her future is still full of infinite possibilities.
Maybe next time, she will be able to stand on the highest podium and shine her own light.
And we, as audiences, as bystanders in the entertainment industry, should also give these actors more understanding and support.
After all, they have put too much sweat and effort into bringing us wonderful works.
Speaking of Tang Yan, we have to mention Yang Mi, who is often compared with her.
On the big stage of the entertainment industry, their names are always closely linked.
In an interview with the July issue of Jia Ren, Tang Yan's attitude and remarks were impressive.
She bluntly said that she doesn't like too much self-promotion and false rhetoric, and prefers to do things in a down-to-earth manner and not argue with others.
In this complex and tempting entertainment industry, it is rare to maintain such a sober and firm.
On the other hand, Yang Mi seems to have embarked on a completely different path.
For a long time, Yang Mi has been criticized for paying too much attention to superficial propaganda and image.
In terms of theatrical performance, she has also failed to break through the traditional framework and has been hovering in her comfort zone.
Was this a wise move on her part, or was it a helpless choice?
Let's take a closer look at their work attitudes and achievements.
Tang Yan has always been known for being low-key and pragmatic.
She works silently and shapes every role with her heart, whether it is a tender woman in a costume drama or an independent woman in a modern drama, she can perform it well.
Each of her works is like a work of art that she has carefully carved, full of her hard work and efforts.
Take her performance in "Why Sheng Xiaomo" as an example, Tang Yan vividly interpreted the innocence, perseverance and growth of Zhao Mosheng's character, which moved countless audiences.
Her acting skills are not the kind of sharp and amazing, but like a gurgling stream, slowly flowing into the hearts of the audience, making people inadvertently moved by her.
And Yang Mi, with his outstanding appearance and high topicality, has always been active in the forefront of the entertainment industry.
Her film and television works are numerous, but they are often questioned for their uneven quality.
In some plays, her performance seems to fall into a stereotyped routine, lacking innovation and breakthroughs.
For example, in "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", although the show has achieved extremely high ratings, Yang Mi's performance is still considered to have failed to meet the audience's higher expectations in some aspects.
In the entertainment industry, different survival strategies and acceptance have created different destinies.
Tang Yan's persistence and calmness allowed her to keep her inner peace in the hustle and bustle; And Yang Mi's flamboyance and enterprising have also won her countless attention and opportunities.
With the passage of time, the audience's eyes have become more and more critical, and the requirements for actors have become higher and higher.
Which way can stand tall in the long river of the entertainment industry?
is like Tang Yan who silently adheres to it and speaks with his works; Or is it like Yang Mi to actively build momentum and pursue topics and popularity?
Perhaps, the answer is not black and white.
In this ever-changing entertainment industry, no strategy will always work.
But it is undeniable that only by constantly improving his acting skills and interpreting every role with his heart can he truly win the respect and love of the audience.
There is still a long way to go, and Tang Yan and Yang Mi's acting career continues.
It will be interesting to see how they will write their own chapter on this stage full of challenges and opportunities.
Perhaps, the next Magnolia Award will be a stage for them to prove themselves again; Perhaps, they will shine more brightly in other fields.
But in any case, every step of their journey will become a microcosm of the development of the entertainment industry, which is worthy of our attention and consideration.
