Chapter 1254: Xu Yuan Film Festival and Golden Crown Award
"Boss, the people have arrived. Ningmeng spoke.
Xu Yuan, who had just returned from the set, nodded.
"The Tuner" has been completed, but in order to complete the indicators of this year's "Sisters", Xu Yuan still has a drama to shoot next.
But before that, he has a big deal to deal with in advance.
Today, there are a lot of people in the crazy conference room.
There is a core layer within the company, and important artists who own part of the company's shares are also here.
There are also invited industry leaders, especially the leaders of the Filmmakers Association, such as Mr. Daoming, Brother Zhang Fengyi, Andy, Zeng Short, Gu Zai, etc.
At the same time, there are also collaborators in the industry, such as Ah Zuo, Huo Susu, Oldman, Kobe, the head of the Zheng family, Qianda Zhang Lin, and so on.
"Let's watch it first, and we'll talk after we finish reading. Xu Yuan spoke.
Soon, a project PowerPoint presentation began to be played in the conference room.
Ten minutes later, there was a burst of exclamations in the conference room, and everyone's faces showed an incredible look.
"It's actually an award! Xu Yuan wants to hold a film festival!"
"This ...... It's very difficult, especially if you want to reach the level that Xu Yuan had in mind. ”
"It's hard to talk about the cost of money and effort, and it doesn't always pay off. ”
"But if it can be done, the benefits are visible to the naked eye. ”
"Hollywood, to a certain extent, is closely related to the Oscars. Flower Movies is now catching up with Hollywood, and it is very likely to catch up in five to ten years. However, in terms of awards, there is no particularly authoritative and internationally influential one in China. ”
"The golden rooster and the hundred flowers, if they can be held at home, they will be difficult abroad. The rest of the awards are even more of a different standard. ”
"The Golden Crown Award! When the time comes, the crown will be used as a trophy, which is very atmospheric. However, as a grassroots award, the foundation is not enough, which ......"
"There is no way, if you look for existing domestic awards as the predecessor, on the one hand, there are interests involved. You know those institutions in China, if you don't have the ability, he can't let him plant trees, but he is very good at picking peaches. Isn't the distant film festival a microcosm of what has chilled filmmakers in recent years? ”
"In fact, if Xu Yuan, he created it, this award will be very legendary. It doesn't feel worse than an award with a historical background. ”
There was a lot of talk.
That's right, what was shown in the PPT was some of Xu Yuan's ideas about the award.
The Golden Crown Award, the highest trophy of the Xu Yuan Film Festival.
The Xu Yuan Film Festival is divided into two parts.
The first part, similar to the three major European film festivals, will invite many films to be screened, providing a platform for global film practitioners and enthusiasts to communicate and showcase.
There are three screening units, each with a different meaning.
The first screening unit is to encourage the exploration of new techniques, techniques and forms of expression in film, among which the best films will be awarded a golden crown.
The second screening unit is an in-depth discussion of the actors and roles, and the performance is completely elevated, purely from a professional point of view, with the intention of selecting the best acting skills. In this unit, the winner of the Golden Crown will be an actor, regardless of gender, this is the only one.
In a sense, this will be the most coveted award for a global actor.
The third screening unit is a unit for underdeveloped film areas, giving them more hope and recognition.
These three units vividly embody the purpose of the Xu Yuan Film Festival.
Pursue innovation, pursue pure acting skills, and support films in underdeveloped regions.
At the same time, there will also be a youth film fund to support talented directors from around the world to help them achieve their dreams.
This is a very positive pursuit of the film festival, but there may be a problem that the public will not accept it too much.
The vast majority of the audience is just ordinary people, and although this film festival is professional enough, it is too professional and will also make the public feel a sense of distance.
At this time, a bridge is needed.
"So, at the end of the Xu Yuan Film Festival, we set up the Golden Crown Award ceremony. The Golden Crown Awards for the three major screening units will be awarded at this stage. "Bian Xue is talking to everyone about PPT," and the award ceremony has all the traditional awards. From Best Film, Director, Actor, Actress, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress, Newcomer to a range of technical awards. ”
As soon as I said this, everyone reacted immediately.
This is a sense of déjà vu to merge the three major European film festivals and the Oscars.
Xu Yuan's ambition is really big.
And don't say it, if there is a lot of money in the town, it seems to be true...... It is feasible.
Of course, sufficient financial support is required.
It will take at least three or five years for any film festival to have initial influence.
There are many details that need to be discussed.
"Isn't it popular to be the best actor now? partly as the main actor, but partly as a male and female. Someone asked, "Do you need to think about the Golden Crown Award in this regard?"
Xu Yuan shook his head: "I can understand the abolition of the distinction between men and women." This is to provide forward-looking guidance on gender equality in the awards, and the idea is good, but it is not yet known whether it will really benefit women. ”
"At least, I personally think that there is still a big gap between the career lifespan, roles, and roles of actors and actresses, and comparing actors and actresses together at this stage is actually unfair to actresses. ”
It's easy to understand.
Male actors can play the male lead at the age of fifty, and actresses can only play the female lead and her mother at the age of fifty, which is the most obvious difference.
And there is a huge disparity in the number of big male lead movies and big female lead movies every year, at least nine to one.
Because of the length of the career and the number of opportunities, it is a seemingly fair injustice for actresses and male actors to compare together.
And the result of this is that it seems to be standing up for the actress, but in fact, it is exploiting the glory of the actress.
The actresses, who were constantly changing the status quo and making things better and better, had to accept that things were getting worse because of the lack of honor.
This can be said to be a good thing to do badly.
In fact, the award that requires the best of both men and women to be selected is essentially another kind of women's boxing.
Matter determines the basis.
Women and men are inherently different in terms of body structure, so why force the differences between the two sides?
Men and women are the laws of nature, and the awards for men and women are in line with this perception, and the roles are also gendered. Even if a man plays a female role, he should go for the best actress, not the male actor.
In the same way, the protagonist and supporting actor should not be selected together, because the innate conditions of the two are very different.
The group drama is another story.
In short, if the biggest purpose of the Xu Yuan Film Festival is to let more excellent films be seen. Then the biggest purpose of the Golden Crown Award ceremony is to allow more outstanding actors and film practitioners to be commended.
In this era, there are too many good works and good actors, but there are too few good awards.
