As one of the three major awards of Chinese TV dramas, the Magnolia Award at the Shanghai TV Festival has received high attention from peers and audiences at home and abroad every year. The selection of this year's Magnolia Awards has collected nearly 1900 television works from 49 countries and regions, and the competition is extremely fierce.

This year's award ceremony was held at the Mercedes Benz Cultural Center. At the inner round table, each guest table was adorned with a white magnolia shaped lamp. When the lights were dim, the white magnolia on the table lit up, echoing the theme of "magnolia blooming". Actor Yu Hewei hosted the award ceremony as a guest and also won the Best Actor award at the previous Magnolia Awards.

In this year's Magnolia Awards, Sun Li, Tan Zhuo, Wu Yue, Yin Tao, and Zhao Liying competed for Best Actress; Guo Jingfei, Hu Ge, Lei Jiayin, Zhang Yi, and Zhu Yilong compete for Best Actor.

Wu Yue, who won the first prize for Best Actress, just appeared at the "Magnolia Blossoms - Excellent Shanghai TV Drama Research and Evaluation Conference" this morning. At the research and evaluation meeting, she shared her thoughts on actors and performances. Now that she has won the Magnolia Award, she is quite moved. "I feel a lot of pressure every day," she said. "The County Party Committee Courtyard" is a drama that she finds the most challenging. "When I first started up, my head was empty because this character was portraying the daily life of a grassroots cadre, which really challenged my creative work and way of reading scripts. But I was lucky that because of this character, I received the best gift in Shanghai."

The winner of Best Actor, Lei Jiayin, said, "This award is heavy in my heart, and I also want to congratulate the nominated male actors. I am honored to be nominated with you. I want to empathize with the audience through the brilliance of my role, and it is fortunate to have a role like Zhou Bingkun."

The Best Screenplay was won by screenwriters Wang Hailing and Wang Dayou from "The World". Wang Hailing said, "This drama is the longest project I have ever worked on in my career, written in my semi underground studio for nearly 3 years. I still remember the day the production team notified me that the screenwriter could stop working and complete the revisions. At that moment, I felt not a sense of relief, but a sense of loss. I enjoy writing and enjoying loneliness. The script is the cornerstone of film and television dramas, and ultimately presents the buildings on top of it. From this perspective, the recognition of the script is the result of the efforts of all colleagues in" The World "."

The best supporting actor was Ding Yongdai, who played the role of Zhou Zhigang, the father of the Zhou family, in The World. When he received the award, he thanked the various departments and actors of the production team for their help and support during the filming. "Just like the song sings, plants will sprout, children will grow, and I will work harder. In order to play this role well, the styling teacher has high requirements and adds special makeup water every day. Everyone has put in a lot of labor for my role."

The Best Director was awarded by Li Lu in "The World", who said, "This is a proof and recognition of my labor. I believe that the award is an engine for artists to start again, and it is a way for us to do better in our future work. All the plays we plan below will also draw more nutrition and nourishment from the masses."

Wang Xiaoqiang won the Best Screenplay award for his performance in "County Committee Courtyard". He stated that when he started writing the script for "County Committee Courtyard" two years ago, he never expected to stand on the podium of Bai Yulan two years later. "Thank you to the directing team of the production team for turning every word in the script into vivid and exciting visuals. I would like to express my gratitude to the 146 outstanding actors for imbuing the characters with soul. In the future, I will continue to respect the screenwriting industry."

The best supporting role was awarded to actor Liu Dan. In "The Beginning," she played a desperate mother and became the soul character of the entire drama. For 36 years, she has been deeply involved in the stage of drama. Liu Dan appeared at the award ceremony wearing a yellow qipao, and before delivering her acceptance speech, she couldn't help but laugh uncontrollably. "I'm so happy. From the day I dreamed of being an actor when I was young, I thought about living a different life. It wasn't until I grew up and became a professional actor that I realized you could only live your own life and find ways to live someone else's life. It was a surprise. Thank you, Magnolia, Shanghai, and" The Beginning ". Thank you all for witnessing this wonderful moment with me." Finally, she choked up. "I am a mouse, and when I was a child, I was very timid. My biggest fear was to let down my job, because it was difficult to play every character well. It was difficult to make every character live like a person."

"I was so excited, I really didn't expect it to be me," said Yu Xiaochen, who won the Best Cinematography award for "Dear Child". "Thank you to the judges for recognizing our film, and I also want to express my special gratitude to the female lead actress Ren Suxi. It was her vivid performance that made this film come to life..."

In recent years, Chinese TV dramas have adhered to the principle of "going out" and telling Chinese stories on the international stage. The Shanghai TV Festival is also a platform with an international perspective. The winners of the International Communication Award are the animated film "Daily Growth", the documentary "Flavor of the World", and the TV drama "Mountain and Sea Love". Award presenter Hu Ge stated that "Langya Bang", starring him, has been released in 120 countries and has won the love of many viewers. "A good story can cross countries and languages, and I believe that every successful work that goes abroad can become a milestone in cultural dissemination and exchange."

That night, Lei Jiayin and Zhao Liying were selected as ambassadors for overseas promotion of Chinese television programs. Lei Jiayin said, "When I was a child, I watched a translated film" The Flame of Youth "imported from Shanghai, which opened the door to my understanding of the world. Nowadays, more and more global audiences can see" The World "on TV. I will communicate well with foreign friends and improve my" Northeast English ". The humorous words drew thunderous applause from the audience.". Zhao Liying said, "In the hearts of audiences around the world, I am Xiaogu, Minglan, Xu Banxia, and more importantly, I am Chinese actress Zhao Liying. I am very happy that the world has seen my works and learned about Chinese stories from them."

In the animation unit, at this year's Magnolia Awards, "Mming Valley Season 3" won the Best Animated Feature and "Chinese Fantasy Tales" won the Best Animated Screenplay. Chen Liaoyu, the chief director of "Chinese Fantasy Tales" who came to receive the award, said, "I am just one of the representatives of the 11 directors for this award." He recited the names of the 10 directors who participated in this animated series at the ceremony, "This award belongs to Shui, Hu Rui, Yang Mu, Liu Maoning, Chen Lianhua, Xu Ning, Gu Yang, Liu Kuang, Pan Bin, and Zhou Xiaolin. Congratulations."

In the documentary unit, "Inner Fire: A Requiem for Cartier and Maurice Kraft" won the Best Documentary, and the Best Series Documentary was won by "Above the Wood, Rice, Oil, and Salt".

There are many misunderstandings about China in the world, and I hope to clarify them through this documentary," said Ke Wensi, director of "Above the Wood, Rice, Oil and Salt"
