767 World Hugo Awards Conference 3
"Congratulations, sir, you won the prize!"
Xiangxue Aisha came over with a pair of colorful balls and rubbed Chen Yao's body. She saw that he looked even more excited than Chen Yao.
In order to support his idol, this Japanese flight attendant came to be a ceremonial lady and brought two colorful balls to support him.
She rubbed her body to the point of comfort, Chen Yao smiled and said, "Thank you!"
"Come on, come on! You are the best, you will be the biggest winner tonight!" Xiangxue Aisha covered her fists and had a strong sense of trust in Chen Yao.
Chen Yao stood up and walked towards the stage.
Taking the medal from the host, except for the Hugo Awards, the other awards are all a medal.
Best Potential Adaptation Award.
The host asked with a smile: "Chen, do you have anything to say?"
Chen Yao took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for the medal presented by the conference, which is considered to be a recognition of the value of "Survival of Mars" adaptation."
A very short speech on the award, but Si Luofu listened to it and his face looked a little unfair, and the smile on his lips completely disappeared.
He was even more optimistic about Rojas's "Building Planet", and he spent 80 million yuan to buy it. As a result, the best adaptation was Chen Yao's "Survival on Mars".
After returning to his seat with the medal, Lin Yuhan immediately raised his cell phone to take a photo with him. Speaking of which, this was his first time participating in the Hugo Award, and it was already very good to get a medal.
Regardless of whether he can win the highest prize in the end, he will not be able to get nothing tonight.
Si Luofu glanced blankly. In the eyes of the conversation, it was nothing to win the best potential adaptation, and the bigger prize was still there.
Chen Yao only has one medal at present, and Rojas has three, so he is still a little behind.
The World Science Fiction Awards Ceremony is still in progress.
Host Wilson said: "The next award is presented, the best translation award."
When a novel wants to succeed in a market outside the local market, translation is crucial and even determines its life and death. Many high-quality works eventually ruined the translation, resulting in mediocre responses overseas.
If you want to translate your works well, you not only need to have a high level of foreign language, but also be half a writer.
The host read out the results directly: "Best translated work, "My Wandering Earth 3", translation unit, Jinchao Publishing House."
Luo Kun came to Japan for this award, and he went on stage to receive the medal on behalf of the publishing house.
"First of all, I have to thank Chen Yao." Luo Kun said with sincere eyes: "Without Wandering, it would not be possible to sell overseas, nor could it be awarded the Best Translation Award. Thank me at the same time..."
Yangyangshasha made a long speech. If the host hadn't reminded him that there was not enough time, he would have said it for half an hour.
Luo Luo was quite excited about participating in a world-class science fiction awards ceremony for the first time.
He returned to his seat with the medal, and Lin Yuhan also took a photo with him and shared it.
Awards were announced one by one, the award ceremony began to climax, and the Hugo Award was awarded!
The best short story, best novella, and best novella, and the best novella are the most weight.
The host said: "The first one to be awarded is the best short story, and there are five shortlisted works, please watch the big screen."
With the playback of light music, the book covers of five candidate works appeared on the big screen. Chen Yao had no works selected, and of course, Rojas did not.
Wilson announced: "Best Short Story, "The Galaxy Circle" writer, Mitsuda."
A local writer from Japan, a boy wearing black-framed glasses came up to receive the award and delivered a speech to step down the stage.
Lin Yuhan asked quickly: "You have all the works shortlisted for the next novella and long ones, right?"
Chen Yao nodded: "Yes."
The most critical moment came, Lin Yuhan's face became nervous, and her fists were clenched.
The big screen of the stage is playing the nominated works.
There are five movies in total, "The Other Side of the Black Hole", "Supermarket Tour", "Mutual Gene", "Blue Storm", and "Survival of Mars".
A man in a black orthodox suit came on stage. He is the famous science fiction director Smith. He has filmed many science fiction blockbusters that have become popular all over the world.
He took the envelope from the host and then opened it and read it: "The best novella of the Hugo Award, "Survival of Mars" Chen Yao!"
"You won the prize!" Lin Yuhan was even more excited than Chen Yao, and grabbed his arm and let him go on stage to receive the prize.
Chen Yao stood up and walked towards the stage. The audience at the scene reached out and shook hands with him to congratulate him!
The etiquette lady is here again. Xiangxue Aisha takes the colorful ball and rubs it on him. Chen Yao feels extremely comfortable all over.
Standing on the stage, taking the trophy from the host, holding it in his hand was very heavy, and it should be made of pure gold. Chen Yao held it tightly.
The host handed the microphone to his mouth: "Do you have anything to say at this moment?"
Chen Yao cleared his throat: "If it weren't for the editor Luo Kun reminding me, I almost forgot that there was a Hugo Award, because I never had any hope. Winning the award would be a surprise!"
Walking off the stage, Lin Yuhan immediately rushed over with his cell phone and took photos with him, took photos, and took many photos of him holding trophy from different angles, and then shared them.
Si Luofu was still very calm. What he valued the best novel was the best one. As long as Rojas got it, everything else didn't matter.
As the award ceremony reached its climax, the discussion in the live broadcast room became more and more intense.
"Congratulations, the boss finally won the prize. Didn't someone just mock him for being incompetent? Hahaha, now I don't dare to speak?"
"It's just a novella. The biggest prize in the Hugo Award is the best novella. Rohas is much better than him, so he will definitely lose."
"You can tell by looking at online voting that Rojas's works are more popular, but it's good to get a novella."
The host on site began to read out the nomination list, which was also five:
"War in the World of Microbials", "Exotic creatures break into the Earth", "The Last 30 Days of the Doomsday World", "My Wandering Earth 3", "Building Planets".
Each of them is a hot global work. Those who can enter the nomination list are all powerful people in the industry, representing the highest level of science fiction literature in the world today.
An old man with white hair came to the stage. He is Ors, president of the World Science Fiction Association, and is an important figure in the industry.
He took the envelope, opened it apart, and pulled out the card.
The scene became very quiet, and I didn't dare to take a breath, waiting for him to announce the result.
Lin Yuhan and Luo Kun were so nervous that they were sweating on their foreheads.
Chances may be once in a lifetime, Chen Yao sat upright and closed his breathing.
Ors scanned the audience and announced loudly:
"The 73rd Hugo Awards Best Feature, "My Wandering Earth 3", Chen Yao!"
Chapter completed!
