After Jiang Ran returned to the group to deal with some company affairs, he returned to the crew again and continued to be busy with the filming of "Zombie Out of the Cage".

In June, the biggest event in the Hong Kong film and television industry is the Hong Kong Film Awards, which have been held for two years.

This year, the awards ceremony of the 3rd Hong Kong Film Awards was no longer held in Burning Maple Cinemas, and what happened after the Academy Awards last year still made the main committee of the Academy Awards feel uneasy.

Although the matter finally survived smoothly under the control of Ranfeng Group, it also made the Academy Awards Organizing Committee inevitably turn against some senior filmmakers and create an estrangement.

It is precisely because of last year's turmoil that the main committee of this year's Academy Awards no longer dares to put the ceremony in Burning Maple Cinema, which is too hated.

At the 3rd Hong Kong Film Awards held this year, Ranfeng Group once again dazzled in this nomination. Lin Zhengying's "Zombie Chief" directed and starred received a total of ten nominations, becoming one of the most nominated films at this year's Academy Awards.

Jiang Ran himself maintains a very optimistic attitude towards the expectations of "Zombie Dao Chief" at the Academy Awards, because the Academy Awards are sponsored by Asia Television. The TV version of "Zombie Chief" is now almost in production and will be available on Asia TV soon.

In the face of the promotional benefits of the Academy Awards for the next TV broadcast of "Zombie Dao Chang", Jiang Ran does not believe that Qiu Degen will not use the natural influence of his sponsors to fight for the benefits of "Zombie Dao Chang" at the Academy Awards and expand its influence.

For the management of the brand "Zombie Dao Chang", Qiu Degen only pays attention to TV, while the business strategy of Ranfeng Group includes all copyrights.

Since May, the adaptation of "Zombie Taoist" has begun to be released on "Tiantian Wenhui", and according to Zhao Junjue's statistics, the response of this film among readers is quite good.

Although it has not yet reached the level of a big hit, using the influence brought by last year's movie, this film has never lacked readers' attention since its release.

Jiang Ran believes that after winning the Academy Awards, coupled with the impact of the TV series that will start broadcasting soon, the signboard of "Zombie Dao Chief" will definitely be more appealing and truly become the golden signboard of Ranfeng Group.

In Jiang Ran's heart, the brand of "Zombie Dao Chief" will not be limited to the pattern of his previous life, he also has a long-term plan, that is, on the basis of the current zombie catch, he will gradually move closer to the Xianxia field.

At that time, when the attractiveness of the existing model is reduced, the special effects of the movie should also begin to mature, and then the current "Zombie Dao Chief" can be upgraded to a magical version of Xianxia, and the special effects will be used to bring this series of movies to life again.

On June 18, 1984, at the Yau Ma Tei Theatre in Hong Kong, a long red carpet was laid out early at the door, and the media reporters invited around also set up various long guns and sprints early, preparing for the upcoming Hong Kong film festival.

After two Academy Awards, especially the second Hong Kong Film Awards last year, the support of Ranfeng Group and Asia Television, whether it is funding, experience in holding large-scale ceremonies, or influence in the media, is not comparable to those of the original "Film Fortnightly".

Because of this, although there were some twists and turns and criticism at last year's Academy Awards, it was generally praised by most of the media and people in the film industry.

After that, the award ceremony was recorded and edited by Asia Television, and after it was broadcast on Asia Television, it laid a deep imprint on the hearts of ordinary audiences for the Hong Kong Film Awards, and truly had an audience base.

It is precisely because the Hong Kong Film Awards became famous throughout Hong Kong last year, and the media and audiences began to accept this award, so people in the entertainment industry began to attach great importance to this award this year.

As for Asia Television, because of the good ratings of the recorded broadcast of the awards ceremony last year, coupled with the considerable advertising revenue at the award ceremony, they have paid more attention to this matter this year and invested more.

Otherwise, where would the presiding committee have the money to rent the Yau Ma Tei Cinema and make the pomp so grand.

The red carpet guest waiting area of the Academy Awards is in a hotel near the theater, Jiang Ran is going to walk the red carpet with Lin Zhengying and other "Zombie Taoist" crews this time, and now he is also staying in the hotel with Lin Zhengying.

"Master Zhengying, you have a great hope of winning the award this time. Jiang Ran teased Lin Zhengying with a smile, "Are you ready for your acceptance speech?"

Lin Zhengying's old face has not been smiling since they met today, this is after listening to Jiang Ran's words, he said happily: "I also hope that I can really win the award this time, but there are big variables, and I don't know if there is a chance to go on stage." ”

Lin Zhengying was a little apprehensive and a little trance, just more than a year ago, he was still following Sammo Hung as a martial arts finger in obscurity, but now he has become a famous actor in Hong Kong, directing a movie with a box office of 20 million, and this time he has the opportunity to win a film award, which he never dared to think of before.

Jiang Ran patted Lin Zhengying on the shoulder, smiled and encouraged him: "Don't worry! "Zombie Dao Chief" has received so many nominations, and winning the award is a yes, it's just a matter of how much. ”

"As for you, both directing and acting, you have created a new film category for Hong Kong films, no matter what you say, you can't erase your achievements, so the main committee will definitely give you an award. ”

"Hehe! Then borrow Mr. Jiang's auspicious words. Lin Zhengying said with a smile.

"Mr. Jiang, Uncle Jiu, what are you talking about? A voice suddenly interjected.

Jiang Ran turned his head to see that Li Tingzhu, who was nominated for Best Screenplay with himself and Lin Zhengying, leaned over with a spring breeze.

Li Tingzhu is an old man in the editorial department, good at plot and small scene design.

When Jiang Ran was in the company, because he often participated in the creation of scripts, he was very familiar with several old people in the company's editorial department.

After all, when everyone is writing scripts together, it is common for them to quarrel with each other, and after a long time, these employees with pens will naturally have less awe of Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran tilted his head, looked Li Tingzhu up and down a few times, and said with a smile: "Ah Zhu, that's good! I can't usually see it, but after dressing up, I actually touch a dog." ”

"Yes! If you usually dress up like this, with the number of beauties in our group, you will already be soaked in horses. Lin Zhengying also joked on the side.

Li Tingzhu wiped his shiny head with his hand when he heard this, and said proudly: "That's it, naturally beautiful." But I, a talented person with connotation, is so superficial to be attractive to people. So I usually humbly cover up my peerless appearance, just to see if those girls have vision. ”

Li Tingzhu lowered his head, sighed sadly, and said: "It's a pity that the superficiality of the world is disappointing, and everyone is used to judging people by their appearance. ”

As he spoke, Li Tingzhu suddenly raised his head and said excitedly: "So, I decided to stop being modest today, and I want to use my peerless face to blind the vulgar eyes and make them regret their former vulgarity." ”

Jiang Ran felt that he was now speechless and unable to see, and he felt that there should be a thunder at this time to draw a complete end to this untimely picture.

Seeing that Lin Zhengying, who was usually serious and serious, was about to burst into tears with a smile, Jiang Ran shook his head violently, stretched out his hand and slapped Li Tingzhu's body fiercely, and said, "Don't pretend to be forced, pretend to be forced to recruit thunder!"

Li Tingzhu looked at Jiang Ran curiously, looked ignorant, and said: "Mr. Jiang, don't you think that I haven't soaked in horses now, just because there are too many vulgar eyes, I want to use my peerless face now to make them face this problem in regret, is it wrong?"

"Haha......" Lin Zhengying next to him couldn't hold back anymore and laughed.

Jiang Ran looked up at the sky, completely speechless about the other party's question.
