Chapter 257: The Enigmatic Man

"Cut, now I'm announcing the completion of Police Story. On November 14, after reshooting several sets of shots, "Police Story" was officially completed after more than 2 months of filming, and at this time Cheng Long was still recuperating and resting in the hospital bed.

Zhang Fan decided not to cooperate with Cheng Long in his life, the filming was so exciting, the ambulance alone was called twice, not to mention the emergency treatment at the filming site.

On November 17, 1984, Zhang Fan took Weng Meiling to Taiwan by plane to participate in the 21st Golden Horse Awards tomorrow.

Founded in 1962, the Golden Horse Film Awards are a film award organized by the Treasure Island region, mainly to promote film production in the Treasure Island region and to recognize filmmakers who have made outstanding contributions to Chinese film culture.

In addition, there are no geographical restrictions in the selection conditions, and the selection objects are open to all Chinese films and Chinese filmmakers.

As the highest-grossing film of the year, "The True Color of Heroes" has previously received multiple nominations at the 21st Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards.

This year's Golden Horse Awards will be held in the performance hall of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Taipei.

……

Before the party began, the crew and personnel from various film companies who came to attend the party gathered in the performance hall to talk casually.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the Golden Horse Awards ceremony officially began.

The 2,500 red seats in the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall in Taipei have been filled with audiences, and the applause is endless, and several ** racks have started live broadcast in the four sides of the auditorium.

Zhang Fan was wearing a black suit and Weng Meiling, and the main creators of "The True Colors of Heroes" such as Dillon, Zhou Runfa, Leslie Cheung, and other "True Colors of Heroes" sat in the third row at the front.

The host of the 21st Golden Horse Awards was hosted by Ling Bo and Hou Hsiao-hsien.

Ling Bo's high curly hair fully shows the swan neck, and the long-sleeved skirt not only reflects the professional demeanor of the host, but also reveals the charm of the graceful years to the woman.

After the presiding emcee Ling Bo finished his simple opening remarks, he began to present the first award of the night.

"Next, I would like to invite the award presenters Chang Feng and Chen Qiuyan to jointly present us with the Best Drama Award. ”

"In the past year, there have been many excellent works in Chinese films, and many classic clips have also emerged, adding a lot of fresh blood to Chinese films. Chang Feng leaned on the microphone and said.

Chen Qiuyan, who is full of stage experience, smiled at Chang Feng, and then said: "Yes, but among these films, who can win the best drama award? Let's take a look at the list of nominees for this year's year." ”

Chang Feng opened the envelope and read: "The nominations for the best plot of the 21st Golden Horse Awards are: "Lao Mo's Second Spring", "Public Servant", "Yuqing's Sister-in-law", "The Man from the Wind Cabinet", "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers", "The True Colors of Heroes"

While Chang Feng was reading, the screen in the middle of the stage also played the trailers of six movies.

The 21st Best Drama Award was won by Gaoshi Company's "Lao Mo's Second Spring". ”

After the director of "Lao Mo's Second Spring" took the initiative to hug the two when he came to the stage to accept the award, he finished his acceptance speech with some excitement in the warm applause from the audience.

Subsequently, after a succession of many small awards, the following is the award for Best Supporting Actor.

As the master of ceremonies fell, a spotlight hit the center of the stage, Zhang Fan, who was handsome in a black suit, and Weng Meiling, who was wearing a floor-length skirt, appeared in the middle of the stage.

Zhang Fan spoke into the microphone in Chinese first: "This Golden Horse Awards, I imagined that I would stand on this stage.

But what I never expected was that the first time I appeared on the stage of the Golden Horse Awards was to present the award as a guest of honor. ”

Weng Meiling continued Zhang Fan's words: "Oh, yes, I thought you would say that it would be a great honor to stand on the award stage with me for the first time!"

Everyone in the audience began to laugh, but Zhang Fan laughed awkwardly, and quickly returned to the topic: "There are nominations for Best Supporting Actor this year."

Chang Feng "Fragrance in the Summer Garden"

Chen Zhenlei "Lao Mo's Second Spring"

Zhang Jiannian "Public Servant"

Lee Siu-woong "The True Colors of Heroes"

"The winner of the 21st Best Supporting Actor is Chang Feng's "Fragrance in the Summer Garden", let's congratulate him. ”

Then Chang Feng came to the stage and hugged the two of them first, and the brief speech made the audience burst into applause, but Li Xianxiong looked a little lonely.

The Best Supporting Actress was won by Chen Qiuyan, while the Best Actress was won by Yang Huishan of "The Little Fugitive".

Immediately afterwards, the host Hou Xiaoxian and Ling Bo returned to the stage.

"Director Hou, I don't know which words you have been most impressed by recently. Ling Bo asked, curious.

"Miss Ling, you must know that I have not been a director for a long time!" Hou Xiaoxian replied helplessly and aggrieved.

"It seems that Director Hou also likes to be a big guy very much. ”

The audience burst into laughter.

"Let's reveal the highlight of the evening, Best Actor. Ling Bo said with a slight smile.

The nominees for Best Actor are, Li Xiuxian's "Public Servant", Jackie Chan's "Plan A", Zhou Yunfa's "The True Colors of Heroes", and Dillon's "The True Colors of Heroes". ”

After reading the nomination, Ling Bo then handed the envelope in his hand to Hou Xiaoxian.

"The winner of the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor is "The True Color of Heroes"," Hou Xiaoxian paused deliberately before speaking.

"Dillon. ”

Dillon hugged everyone and stepped onto the stage, while Zhou Yunfa looked lonely.

"Ah Fa, don't worry if you don't win the Best Actor, I'll come back next time. Zhang Fan looked at Zhou Yanfa and said.

"Actually, I have a certain amount of mental preparation, Afan, don't worry about me, there's nothing to be disappointed about, it's enough for me to get rid of the box office poison, it really doesn't matter if I can win the award or not. ”

"If only you could think like that!"

As for whether it is lost or not, only the parties themselves know.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you for the affirmation given to me by the Golden Horse Awards, thank you Director Zhang Fan for the opportunity he provided me when I was the most down, and thank you to the crew of "The True Color of Heroes".

This award is shared by our crew, thank you!" Dillon's eyes were a little moist, and after choking up and finishing his acceptance speech, he bowed in the direction of the crew of "The True Color of Heroes".

The audience erupted in loud applause.

……

"Everyone knows that a good script is inseparable from a good director, and a good director makes a wonderful movie, and the audience buys it, and the next award is the best director award. Yang Huishan said, and then handed the envelope to Li Xiuxian.

"The nominees for the Best Director Award at the 3rd Academy Awards are: "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers" directed by Mak Dangxiong, "The Man from the Wind Cabinet" directed by Hou Xiaoxian, "Yuqing's Sister-in-law" directed by Zhang Yi and "The True Color of Heroes" directed by Zhang Fan

"The winner of Best Director is Zhang Fan's "True Colors of Heroes", let us congratulate Director Zhang. Li Xiuxian glanced at the name on the envelope and spoke.

Zhang Fan took the stage again, hugged the two and said: "I didn't expect to be on stage for the second time, first of all, thank the executive committee of the Golden Horse Film Festival for awarding this award to me, let me prove with facts that I am not a simple award presenter." ”

A light laugh rang out at the scene.

"First of all, I would like to thank the lady who just came with me on stage to present the award, my wife, without her support, I would not be where I am today.

Then thank you to every staff member of the crew of "True Colors of Heroes", the award for Best Director is the result of our joint efforts, thank you very much!"

After Zhang Fan finished his final speech, he bowed deeply to the position of the crew to express his gratitude in his heart.

At the end of the party, True Colors won a total of five best awards, namely Best Costume, Best Editing, Best Original Music, and Best Actor and Best Director.

After the party ended, when Zhang Fan and the crew were about to go to Taipei Snack Street to celebrate, the reporters who came to block their way out.

Zhang Fan, who was walking in front, was surrounded by many reporters at once, the flashing lights kept flashing, and all kinds of long guns and short guns surrounded the water, which made everyone in a dilemma, and they had no choice but to accept interviews with reporters.

"Director Zhang, I'm a news reporter for ATV, I don't know if Director Zhang won the Golden Horse Award for Best Director, what do you want to say now?"

"I am very happy to win the Best Director, and thank you again for the recognition of me by the judges of the Golden Horse Awards!"

"Director Zhang, can you talk about ......?"

"Mr. Zhou Runfa, can you talk about ......?"

Just when everyone was thinking about how to deal with the reporter's questioning, the organizer of the Golden Horse Awards arranged for security guards to come over and began to maintain order on the scene, and the crew members got rid of the reporter's entanglement.
