Chapter 676: The Queen's Coronation
As the world's oldest and most influential film festival, the European Trinity Festival has been imitated by latecomers in terms of award settings and processes. The Tokyo International Film Festival is no exception, and on the eve of the closing ceremony and the awards ceremony, the organizers will send out invitations to the participating crews.
If you receive an invitation, it means that your film has won an award, and if you don't receive it, then hurry up and get out of the way. At the same time, the number of invitations received means the number and weight of the awards that will be awarded.
For example, when Jiang Wen took "The Devil is Coming" to participate in the Cannes Film Festival, someone asked him how many invitations he got before the awards ceremony? This thing replied stupidly: "Eleven!"
The person who asked was startled and hurriedly said, "Then you must have won the grand prize!"
Sure enough, "The Devil is Coming" won the Grand Jury Prize at that Cannes Film Festival second only to the Palme d'Or.
This time, "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart" got eight invitations, indicating that it can get at least one or more of the most popular awards such as the Golden Kirin Award, the Jury Award, the Best Director, and the Actress.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, He Xin and his entourage rushed to the main venue of Shibuya Cultural Village in the courtesy car provided by the organizer. It had been raining lightly in the morning, and now God helped, the rain stopped, but the sky was still overcast and the light was dim.
After crossing the security line, the car slowly drove into the red ...... with other courtesy cars carrying guests Green carpet area. It's still the green carpet used at the opening ceremony, maybe because of the mood, looking at it from a distance, it doesn't seem to be as bad as when I participated in the opening ceremony.
"Come, while there's still some time, you can hurry up and eat something. He Xin was holding a paper bag full of high-calorie foods such as cakes and chocolates.
"I don't want to. Cheng Hao, who had been looking out of the car window, shook his head and said.
"You haven't eaten at noon, and the closing ceremony will take at least two or three hours, aren't you hungry?"
I ate breakfast late, and then I put on makeup and styling, and I didn't even bother to eat lunch.
Xiao Douding, who was sitting in the front row, turned his head and snatched the paper bag in He Xin's hand: "If you don't eat it, I'll eat it!"
As a producer, she also walked the green carpet today, so she deliberately took on a light makeup and changed into a light blue dress with this pure white ribbon around her waist. Light blue and white, these two plain colors are put together, coupled with her light makeup, she looks like a small beauty.
Cheng Hao saw Xiao Douding tilting his head, opening his mouth as wide as possible, holding his teeth, trying to avoid touching his lips with lipstick, sitting there and nibbling on chocolate like a little hamster, subconsciously swallowing his saliva, and said with envy: "Sister Hu, in fact, I envy you very much, you won't gain weight if you eat anything!"
"Who says I can't gain weight? I'm the result of exercising every day. Little Douding raised his head and said arrogantly.
As she spoke, she glanced at He Xin, who was sitting behind, and snorted: "Besides, I am a natural hard worker, and I gave up my life to work for your family, how can I still grow meat?"
"Hey, Sister Hu, don't say that you work for our family, I don't have a dime of shares in your Xinhao Media. Besides, aren't you also a shareholder, after all, you are also working for yourself!" Cheng Hao hurriedly corrected.
"What is my little share, your husband is the major shareholder. In the future, when you two get married, it's not all yours!"
Cheng Hao hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't, what's mine is mine, of course what he earns is his, I can't care about it." ”
"That's not good, in the future, our family will definitely be in charge of the money. Your money is your money, and my money is also your money! We talked about this before, have you forgotten?" He Xin interjected in time.
This face is full of righteousness, especially now that the topic of marriage has been put back on the agenda, he does not dare to be sloppy on such a matter of principle.
Sure enough, although Cheng Hao didn't speak, the upturned corners of her mouth indicated that she was quite satisfied with this statement.
Xiao Douding was stuffed with a mouthful of dog food for no reason, glanced at the righteous and awe-inspiring guy with a white face of disdain, snorted, turned his head, and continued to grin and gnaw on the chocolate.
After a while, the car stopped steadily in front of the green carpet, and the handsome concierge brother hurriedly stepped forward and opened the door. Xiao Douding, who had already been filled with energy, was the first to get out of the car, and then He Xin, who came down and waited beside him, bending down and stretching out his hand.
Cheng Hao was surprised, it was the first time she enjoyed this kind of treatment with her boyfriend.
She settled down, stepped out of her left foot, brushed the carefully selected black dress on her body, and put her little hand on his palm, borrowing strength. The whole person got out. She stepped on a pair of eight-centimeter shoes, and the height difference was just right.
Wait until Wang Xiaoshuai, Lu Xiao and others in the car behind get out of the car. The director, producer, and the male and female protagonists stood side by side in front, and the four people in the back followed closely behind, took a few steps forward, and Fang Yi appeared. The cheers on both sides escalated suddenly.
To be honest, I'm used to seeing the big scenes of the three major festivals in Europe, and even though the Tokyo International Film Festival is known as the largest film festival in Asia, in terms of star flavor, it's really not enough.
The biggest name at the opening ceremony may be Julianne Moore, the heroine of the Japanese-American co-production "Blind Flu", a Hollywood actress and a double actress in Berlin and Venice.
People just showed their faces and left after attending the premiere press conference, and now the closing ceremony is obviously more shabby, in addition to some European literary and artistic coffees, more are Japanese artists, of course, there are many Chinese filmmakers, but I didn't see the members of the "Super Typhoon" crew.
However, the enthusiasm of the fans is still the same, and there are fans who are not good from China, shouting the names of He Xin and Cheng Hao.
The two held hands and kept waving to the fans.
Walk to the photo zone and stop.
The reporters held up long guns and short cannons, and the crackling flashing lights hit in an instant, and they were simply blinded. He Xin was already used to seeing big scenes, and he didn't pose anything, just poked straight and smiling by the way.
Cheng Hao has to be awkward, and after the A-side is filmed, the B-side is turned over, and the action is very skillful. Don't talk about her, even Xiaodouding has a special experience on this kind of occasion.
At the end of the green carpet was a spacious interview area, where the crew stayed for a few minutes and answered a few questions from the exaggerated Japanese hostess. Fortunately, the questions are all decent and friendly.
The venue was large and could accommodate more than 1,000 people. The seats of the crew of "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart" are arranged very high, which is obviously the treatment of the winners, and everyone's confidence is even stronger.
First of all, the chairman of the film festival came up and said a lot, and kept bowing to the audience to express his gratitude. Then the jury of this year's film festival was invited. Six judges from five different countries were lined up, two of whom were Japanese.
The chairman of the jury, Jon Walter, that is, Angelina's father, although he is over seventy years old, has a straight waist, and he still looks like the villain boss in the movie, full of domineering.
Although the Tokyo International Film Festival has fewer entries than the three major European festivals in terms of shortlisted works and unit settings, it is extremely lengthy because it continues the traditional process of European film festivals, and although there are no cabaret performances, there are many awards, interspersed with all kinds of quirky retrospectives and small projects.
The first thing to be awarded is some leftovers, such as the Toyota Earth Award, the Japan Eye Special Award, the Asian Wind Award, etc., all of which have little to do with the works shortlisted for the main competition unit.
It's very boring, He Xin, who basically didn't sleep much after getting off the plane, couldn't help but doze off, but fortunately, his girlfriend next to him reminded him from time to time that he didn't look foreign.
My girlfriend, who also hasn't slept much, seems to be in high spirits from the moment she enters the venue, waiting for the award for the first real movie in her life.
After the lifetime achievement award of this year's film festival, which was announced before the opening of the film festival, Chen Dadao, the winner of the Kurosawa Prize, and the famous Russian director Mikhalkov took the stage to accept the award, the heavyweight awards finally began.
First of all, the award for best artistic contribution, that is, the award for best photography, was awarded. This award "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" is definitely a big hit, especially the use of light and shadow in the movie and the retro shoulder-mounted shooting lens, which has been well received by film critics.
It's a pity that the final winner was the French film "Self-helper".
However, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, after all, they missed this award, and the following awards are heavier than the other.
followed by the Best Actress Award that He Xin and Cheng Hao are most looking forward to.
The guest of honor is the famous Japanese actor Ken Watanabe, who was nominated for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for the movie "The Last Samurai" starring with Liang Tang. Next year, there will be a "Inception" with Xiao Lizi. He is one of the very few Japanese actors who can appear in Hollywood blockbusters, and he is extremely popular in Japan.
Unlike the previous award presenters, either with the help of on-site interpreters or stumbling with a strong accent in Japanese English, after all, this guy is a Japanese star who cooperates with Hollywood, speaks very fluent American English, and stands on the stage and speaks a piece of soup.
Unlike his resolute and tenacious appearance and a series of tough guy images created on the screen, this product is still a chatterbox, and the nagging is endless.
Since this guy came on stage, Cheng Hao has been straight, holding his boyfriend's hand tightly. He Xin rubbed the back of her hand, staring at the guy on the stage who talked endlessly without blinking.
"Well, now it's time to reveal the answer to the mystery, and it was ...... who won the Best Actress Award at the 21st Tokyo International Film Festival."
Finally, the goods slowly began to open the envelope in their hands.
At this moment, Cheng Hao felt that his heartbeat was about to stop, holding his boyfriend's hand, and subconsciously pushed harder and harder. She knew the results she had been waiting for were finally coming.
Sitting beside him, He Xin, who was also in a very nervous mood, clearly felt that his girlfriend's green hand was showing a strange temperature and trembling.
When the envelope was opened, Ken Watanabe no longer sold anything, leaned close to the microphone, and quickly and clearly spit out two words: "Cheng Hao!"
