Section 517: Awards Dinner
On Saturday, October 13th, the banquet hall of the North Golden Lisai Hotel was brightly lit. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is the largest pillar-less banquet hall in Beijin, with a total area of 3,600 square meters, which can accommodate up to 1,500 people. In the area now, there is a stage in front of it, and there are a large number of round tables below, on which groups of well-dressed men and women are seated, and many of them walk up and down and greet each other. There are those who have known each other and haven't seen each other for a long time, and after they touched, they stopped and pulled each other to start chatting about the current situation.
"If you want me to say, the Huabiao Award Organizing Committee has done the most right thing over the years!"
Kang Junan chattered incessantly in Duane's ear, and the sound of chewing and swallowing food was heard from time to time. When I turned my head to look, I could see that this guy was wearing a serious black suit today, and he looked a little bit, but at this moment he was holding a piece of delicate pea cake stuffed into his own mouth, and his cheeks were still bulging and undulating, which really detracted from his image.
Duane couldn't help but wonder, "Didn't you eat tonight?"
After Kang Junan swallowed the contents of his mouth, he smiled and said, "Didn't you hear that this year's Huabiao Awards have been reformed?" It was said that it was going to be in the form of a dinner party, so I deliberately didn't eat much before, and I kept my stomach to eat at night, and I also let myself have something to do, otherwise it would be too boring to just sit down one night." ”
Duane shook his head and sighed, "This is just a formality, you really came to eat?"
Kang Junan casually pulled a plate of dried fruits on the table and asked, "Then do you want to eat it?" I tasted a piece of this mille-feuille just now, and it's really good. ”
Duane glanced at the plate of delicately made mille-feuille cake that made people very appetizing at first glance, and secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
To be honest, today for the night of the Huabiao Awards, he has all kinds of self-rehearsals, makeup and trying on clothes all day, and he hasn't had a good meal, and now he is really a little hungry. With his usual temperament, he is not the kind of person who pretends to be Sven, and he also wants to hurry up and eat one or two pastries to fill his stomach a little like Kang Junan, but he has no chance.
"Director Du!"
Du Anzhong stood up helplessly, greeted the person who came to greet him, with a bright smile on his face, and he couldn't see that he was scolding his mother in his heart at the moment.
"Hello ......"
The one who came over to greet him with a wine glass was a somewhat famous director, who had also met Duane a few times before, and now this guy stood in front of Duane, also smiling.
"Congratulations, congratulations, your new film has achieved another beautiful box office result. I was still talking about this when I was chatting with my friends just now, saying that if nothing else, the box office of this "Back to the Future" is afraid that it will be 2 billion again......"
"Where, where, the final box office has not come out, no one is sure how many ...... box office can have"
Du ane played haha with him, and couldn't help but complain a little in his heart about the form reform of the Huabiao Award Organizing Committee this year: Jiang Zhiqiang's determination to reform is indeed there, not only in terms of content, but also in form, for example, the form of the award ceremony has been changed from the traditional theater-style seating in the past to the current dinner-style seating, and try to uphold the principle of one table for one group, which will be implemented from this year.
This form is indeed more in line with the Chinese people's tradition of taking food as the sky, which makes people feel more relaxed, but there is one bad thing, that is, they are moving around each other more frequently, especially now that the party has not started, some people with higher status and greater energy in the circle are even more uncomfortable, such as Duane - from the time he came in to the present, he has not been able to rest for a while, as soon as he is empty, someone will come to talk.
"Be humble Director Du, this is a sure thing, and there are many people who are saying that this is going to break 2 billion......"
Duane listened with a smile on his face, and the other party talked endlessly, and there was no room for people to interject, so he was happy not to waste his saliva.
This man has been talking about "Back to the Future".
Although this is a science fiction movie, it focuses on a science fiction concept, and there are not many special effects shots involved, and the difficulty is not great, so among the four movies, it was the first one to be completed after the movie "Xiao Shan", and it was successfully released on the eleventh.
And the result of the release also surprised many people who have been staring at it after "Xiaoshan".
Because this year's 11th is just Monday, it will not be released on the first weekend, and will be released directly on the evening of September 30, and then after the entire 11th long holiday, "Back to the Future" has received a total of 730 million domestic box office.
The global box office is about to rush to 2 billion again...... No, in the eyes of many people, the global total box office is designated to break 2 billion.
No one could have imagined that the situation would turn out to be the way it is: how could a film that was all newcomers except for Duane, the executive producer, achieve such a box office? But after careful viewing and research, some people have to admit that the role of the producer in a film is sometimes indeed fatal.
Although the shots of "Back to the Future" are not sophisticated and mature, the actors' performances are still young, and the music is not much classic...... And so on and so forth, all kinds of shortcomings are insufficient, but they can't stand up to having a good producer.
Looking at the film as a whole, anyone who knows a little bit can see that Duane, the producer, set up a track, loaded all the things in the movie in a carriage, and then moved forward on the track he set, so there was this movie in the theater, this movie with novel ideas, interesting plots, simple stories but smooth overall rhythm.
So there is an interesting phenomenon: a large number of critics' feedback on this movie is not high in terms of other aspects except for the interesting proposition, but the actual market box office is rising.
Ning Hao also called Du ane to ask why "Back to the Future" had so many technical shortcomings, but it could achieve such a box office, and Du Hao remembered that he replied to him at the time, "Maybe what the audience really needs is a simple and interesting story." Of course, this was a few days ago, and now he is at the scene of the Huabiao Award ceremony, and the theme of tonight is who will win the various awards of the Huabiao Award.
"Would you like to take two bites?"
finally took this guy away, and before Duane sat down, Kang Junan's voice came from his ears.
He glanced at this guy, looked at the stands again, shook his head and said, "No need, it's about to start, and when the awards are presented later, there will be time for me to eat slowly." ”
When Kang Junan heard this, he also looked at the stage, and sure enough, he saw a few familiar faces.
The Huabiao Award Ceremony tonight is about to begin.
