When Yin Jun was busy with "The Shawshank Redemption", Xiangjiang was also busy.

First of all, there was the promulgation ceremony of the 2nd Xiangjiang Film Awards.

Compared with the first session last year, Guan Shan and Wen Jun made it more lively this year, not only with the broadcast of Kylin Satellite TV, but also the ceremony of walking the red carpet has become more and more formal.

The star actors from all walks of life wore beautiful clothes, competed on the red carpet, and there were thousands of fans cheering and screaming, and the whole atmosphere was very lively.

There are many variables about the award itself.

Last year, there were too many excellent movies in Hong Kong.

Commercial blockbusters include "Speed of Life and Death", "Red Fan Zone", "Best Partner", "Mr. Zombie", "Modern Bodyguard", "Dragon and Tiger Boys", "Jinyiwei" and so on, and the box office reputation is full of movies.

In literary films, there are also films such as "The Story of Hu Yue", "Prison Storm", "A Can on an errand", "The Last Emperor Puyi" and so on.

In addition, there are also many films in the two places of Baodao and Singapore, but none of the nominated Baodao films this time came to Xiangjiang, the reason is naturally because the relationship between Yin Jun and Baodao is not good, and they dare not come.

But it doesn't matter, the awards should be given to them, the Golden Statue Awards will not be twisted, and if they say that this is the film selection of the whole Chinese-speaking circle, then they will not be alone, and only play the side of Xiangjiang movies.

Of course, Baodao's movies have achieved some achievements in literary films at best, but in terms of commercial performance, they are still inferior.

The more movies you can choose from, the more attention the Hong Kong Academy Awards will naturally receive.

The ratings of this awards ceremony have increased by leaps and bounds, reaching a proportion of 27%, that is, at least about 300,000 viewers watched the entire awards party.

Because the advantages and disadvantages are too obvious, in fact, there is not much suspense in this year's Xiangjiang Film Awards.

Zhou Yanfa, who went to the United States, rushed back overnight to attend the award ceremony, and sure enough, he did not return empty-handed, and won the Best Actor for "Prison, Prison", and his partner Liang Jiahui also rushed back from the mainland to receive the Best Supporting Actor award.

But to Lin Lingdong's disappointment, the award for Best Director was actually won by Lin Zhengying, who filmed "Mr. Zombie".

You said that if it was Xu Anhua, a master of literary films, it would still make sense, but it was actually a director who made zombie films, and it was Lin Zhengying, who became a director for the second time, which was an inexplicable blow to him.

The Best Actress was won by Zhong Chuhong of "The Story of Hu Yue", and Zhong Chuhong, who has been in literary films for two consecutive years, finally won the affirmation of the Academy Award.

At the same time, "The Story of Hu Yue" also won the honor of Best Film, and Xu Anhua continued her reputation as an "award-winning professional".

The winner of the Best Action Direction was "Jin Yiwei", the winner of the Best Sound Effects and Best Special Effects Awards was "Speed of Life and Death", and Cheng Long's "Red Fan Zone" was pitiful and did not win any awards.

Hearing Zhou Runfa come back and talk about it, Yin Jun didn't feel funny.

Cheng Long is typical of having a grudge against the Xiangjiang Academy Awards, and for more than 40 years, he has not won the Academy Award for Best Actor once.

According to Yin Jun, in fact, Cheng Long can get the Academy Award actor several times.

For example, "Red Fan District", the first piece to break out of Xiangjiang.

For example, "Police Detective Story", a movie that created a precedent for fashion police and gangster films, and witnessed Cheng Long's peak action.

and the amazing "Drunken Fist 2", Cheng Long played Huang Feihong vividly, especially the last action scene, which is called a hearty and absolutely qualified to win the Academy Award for Best Actor.

It's a pity, it can only be said that in fact, the Academy Awards in the previous life have gone crazy in the end.

It seems to regard "rejection of Cheng Long" as one of its signboards, declaring to the world that it doesn't care about any big name or big brother, we are a fair and fair selection body, otherwise how could Cheng Long not win an award once?

Even Zhou Xingchi got it with "Kung Fu", but Cheng Long just couldn't get it.

You must know that Cheng Long is the only Chinese actor who has won the Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement!

In addition to the Academy Awards, the second season of "Xiangjiang Idol" has also begun the official audition.

Because it will be broadcast in Asia in conjunction with Kylin Satellite TV in June, this time's audition will take a very long time, basically it will not end until May, and after entering the top 64, they will go through a period of training before starting the official knockout round in June.

With the success of the first season, the audition for the second season is not so obscure.

Especially with the amazing achievements of "American Idol", it has made "Xiangjiang Idol" even more famous.

Thousands of young and middle-aged people have come from all over the world to participate in the audition of "Hong Kong Idol", which even includes many young people from Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Treasure Island and other places.

Due to the large number of people, the original eight registration audition points suddenly became sixteen, and the audition time required was more than 16 hours a day, and sometimes the work was not finished at 9 o'clock in the evening.

The three judges, Huang Zhan, Xu Guanjie and Fei Zhenling, are already tired to death just by sitting around.

Fortunately, there is no hurry now, and the whole audition time is 3 months, otherwise they have to make the fastest judgment on the spot in addition to listening to the songs, so the pressure will be greater and the more energy will be spent.

Rao is like this, they also feel that they have consumed too much, and this time, compared to the first season of the last time, it is much harder.

That's the price of fame.

This is the phenomenon of a variety show becoming popular.

Even Xu Guanjie, who is afraid of trouble, is reluctant to leave when he encounters such a tiring situation, let alone Huang Zhan, who has now found his second spring in "Xiangjiang Idol".

But Huang Zhan, a money-greedy old cultivator, is not a vegetarian, so he simply used "too hard" as an excuse to ask Kylin Satellite TV to increase the remuneration of the three of them to 4 million Hong Kong dollars in one go, which is more than double the previous 2 million!

In this regard, whether it is Liu Tianci or Liang Shuyi, there is nothing to hold grudges about, the advertising fee of "Xiangjiang Idol" has increased more than twice as much as last year, and the whole has exceeded 100 million, accounting for more than one-seventh of the annual advertising cost.

It's just that Fei Zhenling is also lucky, this salary increase should have been counted on Deng Lijun, but Deng Lijun no longer participated, and it was she Fei Zhenling instead, so Huang Zhan also won a reward of 3 million for her.

Fei Zhenling is not short of money, but he is naturally very happy to be able to earn a large sum of money for no reason.

It is worth mentioning that in this season of "Xiangjiang Idol", Liu Tianci boldly added an auxiliary host as an assistant to Paul Zong to participate.

He is Fei Zhenling's younger brother Fei Xiang.

Before the Spring Festival, Fei Xiang went to act as the host of some sessions, although the effect of hosting was not as good as that of the gold medal emcee Zong Paul, but after a few more exercises, he could also try to tell some jokes and liven up the atmosphere, coupled with his fluent Mandarin, so that the audience in other cities listened very well, and of course he was praised by Chen Shufen.

The director of the variety show is Liu Tianci, and Yin Jun has already told him that he will open a talk show similar to a talk show in the United States for Fei Xiang in the future, so Liu Tianci thought that he should let him see more big scenes and exercise more now, so he pushed him to such an important stage.

Fei Xiang's first task is to shuttle through various audition sites and preside over every audition he can preside.

As the ace emcee of "Xiangjiang Idol", Zong Paul doesn't need it, he just needs to start his hosting work during the rematch.

For Fei Xiang, this kind of hosting is too cumbersome and hard, and when he returned to the rented apartment, he naturally said a lot of complaints to his sister, but Fei Zhenling has been practicing in Japan for so long, of course, he knows that Kylin Satellite TV is cultivating him, and he is trying to make him more involved and progressive, so he carefully analyzed the reasons why Kylin TV did this.

The sentence that impressed Fei Xiang the most was, "Do you think that if it weren't for the sake of making you take on greater responsibilities in the future, they would have used this to torture you like this? Mr. Yin Jun has never been this kind of person! When they want to torture you, the more it will sharpen you, as long as you survive it, you will be good, otherwise you can only go back to the treasure island to stay in one acre and three points of land." ”

Yes.

Although the area of Baodao is much larger than that of Xiangjiang, they are not as international as the city, the importance of the port location, and the development of the entertainment industry.

This is true both twenty years ago and twenty years later.

This is not only an important reason for the rapid development of Hong Kong, but also an important reason why Singapore can become one of the four Asian tigers, and even have greater development.

Fei Xiang is not a person with a strong sense of ambition, but as a young man, he still wants to have a career.

Hearing what his sister said, after thinking about it, he decided to stick to it first, if it really didn't work, it wouldn't be too late for him to quit.

After all, as my sister said, if there is no hard work, how can you become a talent that others can't reach?

So, Fei Xiang acted as a desperate San Lang, rushing to host a game in the morning, a host in the afternoon, and sometimes working overtime in the evening.

Liu Tianci was a little frightened, and told him to pay attention to rest, don't have to work so hard, anyway, the host of the audition doesn't need to be so professional, any reporter can make a cameo.

Fei Xiang is not the hardest worker.

Even the guest judges weren't the hardest.

The hardest part is the camera crews who are running around the various audition sites.

Just like last year, they are responsible for editing and synthesizing all kinds of interesting audition clips collected every day, making them into clips one by one, comparing them and archiving them, waiting for them to be used when they play the highlights in the future.

Fortunately, there are more film crews on Kylin Satellite TV now, shooting during the day is counted as a group, and those who work overtime to edit overnight at night are counted as a group, otherwise processing hundreds of hours of footage every day will simply drive the people in the film crew crazy.

Therefore, any program, when the audience seems to be very interesting, in fact, it is full of the efforts of many staff.

It was their efforts that turned what looked like an inconspicuous show into a very interesting picture that we all saw.

This is the persistence of TV people, and it is also the unique charm of TV art!
