Yau Ma Tei Cinema, the award ceremony of the 4th Hong Kong Film Awards has come to an end, and now only the two heavyweight awards of Best Director and Best Film have not yet been awarded.

The atmosphere of the crew of "Zombie Out of the Cage" is a little depressing, and now no one in the crew is still in the mood to laugh, including Guan Zhilin and Zhong Chuhong, who have no other thoughts now.

The most important award for a film, the Best Film Award, was placed at the end of the award, so now it is the Best Director Award that is being awarded.

Jiang Ran has no idea about the Best Film Award, after all, this award is the embodiment of the overall performance and comprehensive strength of a film, if there are no small awards in front of him, it is obviously unrealistic to want to win the award.

Lin Zhengying won the Best Director Award at the 3rd Academy Awards last year for his outstanding performance in "Zombie Dao Chief", so today this award is presented by him.

As a contracted actor of Ranfeng Group, of course he hopes that this award can be won by Jiang Ran, and after he came on stage, he didn't have the idea of enlivening the atmosphere, and after directly introducing several nominated films and directors, he opened the envelope in his hand with some trepidation.

Inside the envelope, "Zombie Out of the Cage" - Jiang Ran, a few words jumped into the eye, which made Lin Zhengying breathe a sigh of relief in his heart. A relaxed smile appeared on his face.

Lin Zhengying looked at the area where Jiang Ran and the others were sitting with a smile, and said loudly: "The winner of the Best Director of the 4th Hong Kong Film Awards is, "Zombie Out of the Cage" - Jiang Ran. ”

"Since Mr. Jiang entered the industry, his masterpieces have been uncertain, and the films he has directed have always been innovative. This time, his "Zombie Out of the Cage" once again created a new film theme for Hong Kong films, and opened up a new direction for Hong Kong commercial action films......"

Lin Zhengying introduced Jiang Ran's achievements in recent years, as well as the various advantages and significance of his "Zombie Out of the Cage", which didn't sound like the best director, but more like the evaluation of the best film and the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Obviously, the main committee of the Academy Awards should also know that this time for Ran Feng and Jiang Ran, after getting the most nominations, they only awarded one Best Director Award.

Such an approach may cause a backlash from Jiang Ran, so now giving Jiang Ran a best director and hyping it up is very appeased.

When Jiang Ran heard Lin Zhengying call out his name, he didn't have much joy, he knew that the consolation award of Best Director could not hide the failure of Ran Feng and himself tonight.

"Mr. Jiang, congratulations!"

"Ah Ran, you've won the award again. ”

"Mr. Jiang, congratulations on winning the Academy Award again!"

……

Jiang Ran was not too happy, but the crew members of "Zombie Out of the Cage", who were sitting on the side and depressed for a whole today, seemed extremely excited.

Jiang Ran didn't want to spoil everyone's interest, a slight smile appeared on his face, and he slowly walked onto the stage amid everyone's congratulations.

"Mr. Jiang, congratulations!" Lin Zhengying handed the trophy to Jiang Ran with a smile and congratulated him softly.

"Thank you, Director Lin!" Jiang Ran took the trophy and responded to Lin Zhengying with a smile.

Standing in the center of the stage, Jiang Ran looked at the trophy in his hand, with a little sneer in his eyes, then looked at the audience and glanced at the area where the members of the Academy Awards Organizing Committee were sitting.

"Haha! tonight, our crew of "Zombie Out of the Cage" finally has no grains. I originally wondered if the organizing committee was playing tricks on me, giving me so many nominations, but not a single award was awarded to me. ”

Jiang Ran said, looked at the area where the members of the organizing committee were located with a smile, and continued in their slight color change: "Fortunately, the organizing committee finally gave me such a consolation prize. Here, I would like to thank the Academy Awards Organizing Committee for their comfort. ”

Jiang Ran said, and bowed slightly in the direction of the members of the organizing committee. However, it was obvious that the members of the organizing committee were not happy because of Jiang Ran's bow, and their faces were now gloomy and almost dripping.

"I don't have this award in my hand alone, without excellent screenwriters, excellent cinematography and editing, and without the joint efforts of all crew members, we wouldn't have been able to make a movie with a box office of nearly $200 million. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Ran's expression began to become cautious, "So, I want to thank the entire crew in front of and behind the scenes, thank you for your hard work and dedication." You're some of the best in the industry, no worse than anyone else. You are the uncrowned king of my heart. ”

Jiang Ran shouted loudly at the end.

The scene was silent, only Jiang Ran's voice was still echoing in the hall, and the star filmmakers in the audience were stunned, obviously not expecting Jiang Ran to say such a thing at the awards ceremony.

In all of Jiang Ran's acceptance speeches, his dissatisfaction with the Academy Awards was revealed everywhere, and the last uncrowned king was really slapping the organizing committee in the face.

Jiang Ran was not in the mood to think about the now angry Academy Awards Organizing Committee, after he finished speaking on stage as if warning, he walked straight off the stage without waiting for others to react, and it was only at this time that the audience began to burst into applause.

"Yes! Just like Mr. Jiang said, all of us who were nominated but unfortunately did not win the award are uncrowned kings and mainstays of the Hong Kong film industry......" The atmosphere at the scene was a little delicate because of Jiang Ran's words, and as the master of ceremonies tonight, Yu Cheng had to come to the rescue scene.

"Ah Ran, you don't need to say that just now! As soon as Jiang Ran got off the stage, Zhong Chuhong whispered in his ear.

Jiang Ran turned his head and smiled slightly, and then said comfortingly: "It's okay! I don't say a word, they still think I'm a noodle person, and they can make fun of me casually." ”

After experiencing Jiang Ran's episode, the atmosphere on the scene was much lower after that, and the Best Film Award was unexpectedly awarded to "The Passing Years" by the organizing committee

In the end, under Jiang Ran's turmoil, the entire awards ceremony seemed a bit anticlimactic, and the controversy behind it was almost predictable.

As the host of today's topic, as soon as Jiang Ran walked out of the theater, he was surrounded by a group of reporters who had been waiting for a long time, obviously hoping to get big news from Jiang Ran today.

"Mr. Jiang, what do you think of this Academy Awards?"

"I don't have a big opinion! When it comes to film and art, each of us has our own opinions, opinions and judgments. The selection of the Academy Awards is selected by dozens of judges, and since they have made such a choice, they naturally have their own considerations. ”

Jiang Ran didn't plan to criticize the Academy Awards in the media again, anyway, his dissatisfaction had already been vividly expressed at the awards ceremony just now, and if he complained in the media again, he would seem to have no mind.

Of course, although Jiang Ran did not criticize the organizing committee of the Academy Awards, he also euphemistically expressed his disapproval of this year's Academy Awards.

Moreover, Jiang Ran is very confident, if the Academy Awards Organizing Committee can't give him a satisfactory explanation in the future, he will naturally have the means to clean up the group of people in the organizing committee, and he doesn't have to stand at the front desk himself to break his mouth in the media.

"Mr. Jiang, when you won the best director just now, is your speech to express your dissatisfaction with the low number of awards for "Zombie Out"?"

Jiang Ran glanced at the reporter who asked the question, and then said noncommittally: "In my eyes, "Zombie Out" is obviously outstanding, it is the creator and holder of the Hong Kong box office record, and it is one of the few Hong Kong films that can gain market recognition around the world. ”

"The importance of this film to Hong Kong films is self-evident, and it can even be said that this film is a milestone for Hong Kong films to enter the world film market. ”

Jiang Ran neither admitted nor denied the reporter's words, but trumpeted the role and significance of "Zombie Out of the Cage" for Hong Kong films.

He was not afraid that such praise would cause disgust among the media and other filmmakers. On the one hand, his strength is there, and on the other hand, "Zombie Out of the Cage" can really afford such a tout, and he is not afraid of people coming out to pick thorns.

"Mr. Jiang, what do you think of Siqin Gaowa winning the Best Actress?" another reporter stood up and asked.

"This is the only highlight I have seen at this Academy Awards. Jiang Ran said affirmatively, "If the Academy Awards and even our Hong Kong films want to become bigger and stronger, they must have a greater mind and inclusiveness." ”

"Our own market potential in Hong Kong is limited, so if we want Hong Kong films to continue to maintain our prosperity, we have to rely on the Waifu market. ”

"This requires our Hong Kong film practitioners to have a broader mind to accept and absorb the film themes, technologies and talents of the Waifu film market, so that our films can better meet the needs of audiences in various Waifu markets. ”

"Obviously, in the selection of Best Actress, this Academy Awards shows the open-mindedness and inclusiveness of our Hong Kong filmmakers, which is worthy of encouragement and learning from all of us. ”
