After the 2023 Magnolia Award nominees were announced, Zhang Songwen's defeat has become the most concerned topic in the entire award, and on Weibo alone, the topic of "Zhang Songwen did not nominate Magnolia" has received 420 million views and 25,000 discussions.
A red V released a vote on the Magnolia Award beads, nearly 80,000 people participated, of which more than 45,000 voted for Zhang Songwen.
With the media tracking reports, there are more and more claims about Zhang Songwen's defeat, and some industries claim that because Gao Qiqiang is a villain, he is not suitable for nomination, but it was quickly refuted, after all, whether it is this Magnolia Award or previous Magnolia Awards, there are precedents for villains to be shortlisted or even won awards - Guo Jingfei, Tan Zhuo and Ning Li who participated in "Opponents", and Liu Dan, the "Aunt Guo" who participated in "The Beginning", are not positive roles, and they have all been nominated.
Then another industry news was exposed, which also led to the complete escalation of Zhang Songwen's defeat, allowing netizens to directly pick up the phone and ask the organizer for explanations.
What kind of news is it?
It turned out that more than one media asked the insider, and the other party broke the news that the "Crazy" crew did not register Zhang Songwen for the Best Actor Award at all, and the organizers made a lot of efforts to get Zhang Songwen to sign up for the election, but limited by the rules, if there was no crew registration, Zhang Songwen could not even participate in the primary selection, let alone be shortlisted for the award.
Let's look at the specific rules of the Magnolia Award.
First of all, the regulations clearly state that individual declarations are not accepted, which means that Zhang Songwen must not be able to register by himself; Secondly, the regulations also mention that once an episode is registered, all awards will be automatically declared, unless the crew specifically states that it will forgo one or more awards.
Here comes the key point!
Since Zhang Yi was shortlisted for the Best Actor Award with "Crazy", and the director of "Crazy" is also nominated, then the entire drama of "Crazy" must have applied for the Magnolia Award, and according to the rules, Zhang Songwen automatically registered, and there is no situation that he cannot participate in the primary election.
Now that the insider claims through the media that the crew did not register Zhang Songwen for Best Actor, then according to the entire registration process, didn't the crew and the organizer of "Crazy" declare that they gave up letting Zhang Songwen participate in the award selection?
Whether the Magnolia judges did not choose Zhang Songwen, or the "Crazy" crew blocked Zhang Songwen's participation, these are two concepts!
Seeing that Zhang Songwen lost the election and developed in the direction of Rashomon, finally some netizens couldn't sit still, hoping that the organizer could give a clear explanation - if Zhang Songwen lost the election because the crew did not register, explain the whole thing clearly, and also maintain the professionalism of the Magnolia Award itself.
According to the description of netizens, it should be the Magnolia Award staff who communicates with him on the phone, but he is not responsible for the selection of the award, so the replies given are very routine, mainly emphasizing that the announcement prevails.
But the staff also told netizens that they could help transfer to the person in charge of the award, provided that the specific name of the person in charge was known.
At present, some netizens have given feedback to the Magnolia organizers in various ways, hoping that they can give the specific reasons for Zhang Songwen's defeat, and they have not received further replies for the time being.
However, not everyone supports going to the Magnolia Award organizers to discuss the explanation, and some people are very worried, thinking that it may affect Zhang Songwen's future in the entertainment industry.
Finally, I also hope that the Magnolia organizer can give a reply, and there is a key role that is best not to hide it - the most should come forward to explain the situation should obviously be the "Crazy" crew, have you signed up for the Magnolia Award for Zhang Songwen?
