——————————————————————————————————————

After receiving the trophy from the presenter, Li Bihua and Lu Wei gave a short speech, which was nothing more than words of thanks.

When they came off the stage, there was a burst of music.

Then Liu Dehua, who was wearing a blue suit, walked out of the backstage, and because there were only six awards awarded, there was plenty of time.

So the organizing committee arranged a song and dance performance after each award.

In addition to movies, Hong Kong's music is also world-renowned, such as Wei Xiong, Chow Wai Man, etc. Therefore, it is natural that the cabaret performance is also based on music.

On today's occasion, all those who can sing on stage are all kings and queens in the Hong Kong music scene.

And it's also a very good opportunity.

At this time, there are not only 12 TV stations from all over the world broadcasting live, but also many international stars and journalists.

After Liu Dehua's performance, Cheng Long and the famous Hollywood actress Sophie Marceau walked on the stage.

They will present the award for Best Actress.

I heard Cheng Long speak first: "Just now Mr. Otto said that he is very grateful to the organizing committee for arranging a beautiful young lady for him as a partner. ”

"I would also like to thank the organizing committee for arranging such a beautiful lady for me, and we must be a good partner. ”

Cheng Long's words were exactly the same as those of Peter Otto, and with his slightly funny body language, the audience immediately burst into laughter.

Sophie Marceau next to her also smiled.

"Then should I also thank the organizing committee for arranging a handsome man for me? ”

Cheng Long shrugged his shoulders.

"I think the work of the organizing committee has been so beautiful, and it has received four thanks in a row so far. ”

When Cheng Long and Sophie Marceau teased each other on stage.

In the third row near the middle, Liu Jialing approached Zhou Xingchi and whispered, "Who do you think is more likely to win this award?"

There are three of the most popular Best Actresses this year.

They are Gong Li in "Farewell My Concubine" and Elena Yakovleva in "Miss Tanica", the film and actors are all from the Soviet Union;

and Meryl Streep from "Crying in the Night", from France.

The media has reported it several times before.

It is worth mentioning that according to the definition of the jury, Gong Li should be regarded as a supporting actress in some films, which is different from the other two.

Because Cheng Dieyi played by Zhang Guorong is a Peking Opera Tsing Yi, the role is a woman.

And this drama is centered on Cheng Dieyi.

However, the best actress is selected as the actress who performs the best in the film, and it is not directly related to whether she is the heroine or the supporting actress.

After a deep groan, Zhou Xingchi said, "I think Gong Li is more likely." ”

"A film like "Farewell My Concubine", which combines literary and ornamental properties, should be very appreciated by the jury, and there is one more point. ”

"This is the first time that the festival has set up an award, and this should have an impact on the jury's judgment. ”

Liu Jialing nodded, feeling that what Zhou Xingchi said was very reasonable.

In fact, she served as the heroine, and "Ouchi's Secret Detective Zero Hair" with Zhou Xingchi was also selected for the feature film unit of the main competition, but she is self-aware.

Not to mention that "Ouchi's Secret Agent Zero Hair" is a nonsensical comedy.

It is not liked by the jury in itself.

And whether it is in the storyline or the production level, it is far from "Farewell My Concubine", and her acting skills are much worse than Gong Li.

There was no chance of winning the award at all, so she had no illusions from the beginning.

"The biggest winner tonight is probably "Farewell My Concubine", including the Golden Bauhinia Award at the end, and the people of the Film Association who first Golden Bauhinia Award definitely don't want to give it to foreign films.

"I even think that "Farewell My Concubine" was originally specially prepared by Mr. Wei for the film festival. ”

As he spoke, Liu Jialing's gaze passed through the front row and fell on Wei Xiong, but he saw Wei Xiong leaning against Li Zhi on his right hand and saying something.

I couldn't help but feel a sense of jealousy towards Li Zhi and Zeng Huaqian, who were sitting next to Wei Xiong.

At this film festival, Li Zhi and Zeng Huaqian did not have any works shortlisted for the feature film unit of the main competition, they were purely here to play soy sauce.

But because they are Wei Xiong's women and sit next to Wei Xiong, they have received special attention.

No, there were three cameras pointed at them at this time.

In contrast, she has no presence at all, and even the red carpet ceremony of the opening and closing ceremonies has not attracted much attention.

On the stage, Cheng Long opened the envelope, pulled out the card inside, and then a smile appeared on his face.

"To paraphrase Mr. Otto's words, the expected answer, I would like to congratulate her, and now Miss Marceau will reveal the final result. ”

Sophie Marceau took the card.

"The winner of the Best Actress Award at the 12th Hong Kong International Film Festival is Gong Li of "Farewell My Concubine", let us congratulate Miss Gong Li. ”

In an instant, Gong Li covered her mouth in surprise, unable to believe what she heard for a long time.

After a while, she got up excitedly and hugged Zhang Guorong and other crew members next to her to celebrate, this was the first international award she won.

is an affirmation of her acting skills.

And this is also the first Best Actress Award ever presented at the Hong Kong International Film Festival, and as the winner, she will definitely go down in the history of Hong Kong cinema.

On the way to the stage, people kept congratulating her, and she responded politely one by one.

It took her a while to get on stage.

After saying hello, she took the trophy from Cheng Long.

Then he walked up to the microphone, took a deep breath, and said, "I'm really excited right now, this is the first award I've won since filming. ”

"It's such a big award, and it's a great encouragement for me as a newcomer. ”

"Here I would like to thank one person in particular, that is director Zhang Yimou, who chose me to be the heroine of "Red Sorghum". ”

"Let the smooth completion of the transition from school to society and truly embark on the road of acting. ”

"I would also like to thank everyone on the crew of Farewell My Concubine, without their help, I would not have been able to win this award. ”

"Thank you to the jury, the organizing committee, thank you. ”

The Best Actress award without much suspense was announced like this.

Next up is the Best Actor Award, which was presented by the famous Hong Kong actor Chow Yunfa and the famous Japanese amphibious star Momoe Yamaguchi.

As soon as he stood up, Zhou Yunfa, who was dressed in a black suit, said politely: "Hello Miss Yamaguchi, it's an honor to partner with you to present the Best Actor Award." ”

"Mr. Zhou is polite, I should have said that it was an honor. ”

"You've always been a Hong Kong actor I want to like, and I've seen almost every film. ”

"And you are my senior, both in terms of qualifications and experience, and I was very happy to hear that I was going to partner with you in the afternoon. ”

Zhou Yanfa smiled.

"I don't dare to take the word senior, I remember that Miss Yamaguchi must have been to Hong Kong before, as if she was here to promote the record. ”

"Yes, it was about 10 years ago. ”

"That was my first time in Hong Kong, and the only time I was outside of this one, and Hong Kong has changed a lot in just 10 years. ”

"Whether it's the face of the city or the entertainment industry, it's hard to believe how much has changed. ”

"The next time you come to Hong Kong, I'm sure you'll see a different Hong Kong, and we'll reveal the answer to Best Actor now. ”

As he spoke, Zhou Yunfa picked up the envelope.

He opened it, pulled out the card inside, and when he saw the video and the name of the winner, he didn't show any unusual look on his face.

Directly handed the card to Momoe Yamaguchi: "Miss Yamaguchi will reveal it finally." ”

"The winner of the Best Actor Award at the 12th Hong Kong International Film Festival was Gene Hackman of "Mississippi is Burning", congratulations to him. ”

As Momoe Yamaguchi's words fell, a middle-aged white man sitting on the right side of the third row stood up.

I saw him excitedly celebrating with the people around him, but compared to Gong Li, he was obviously much calmer, and after a while, he walked briskly onto the stage......

"Mississippi is Burning" is based on a true historical event that took place on June 21, 1964.

It talks about the human rights of black people.

During the film festival, it attracted a lot of attention from the American media.

In the film, Gene Hackman plays the old bird investigator who served as the sheriff of the town, and was fully recognized by the professional media and the jury of the film festival.

In fact, "Mississippi is Burning" has two main competitors.

"Once Upon a Time 2" and "Farewell My Concubine".

But in the end, they all missed the award, let's talk about "Wong Fei Hung 2" first, this is a pure Hong Kong new martial arts film, and the focus of this kind of film is appreciation.

The general international awards are more inclined to be literary and artistic, and "Once Upon a Time 2" suffered a big loss from nature.

Also, a considerable part of the jury is made up of European and American filmmakers, who don't know much about martial arts films, so the ratings are naturally low.

As for "Farewell My Concubine", it is even more wronged.

went to say that Zhang Guorong's role in the film, Cheng Dieyi, played the Peking Opera Tsing Yi, which was a female role, which made Zhang Guorong's role positioning a little embarrassing.

It's not appropriate to position him as the heroine, and it doesn't seem entirely right to position him as the hero.

It was this embarrassment that made "Farewell My Concubine" lose the award.

Of course, Gene Hackman's performance in "Mississippi is Burning" is also quite good, even if the two films are on the same starting line.

Zhang Guorong may not be able to win against Gene Hackman in the end.

But it's a pity after all.

"It's a great honor to receive this award, really, but I don't think this award belongs to me personally, but to the movie 'Mississippi is Burning'. ”

"Without a doubt, this is a really good, realistic irony film. ”

"I think it deserves this award, thank you, thank you to the Hong Kong Film Society, thank you to the organizing committee and the jury of the festival, and everyone here. ”

After Gene Hackman delivered his acceptance speech, Liu Songren and Shen Dianxia walked on the stage together.

I only heard Liu Songren speak first: "Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, three of the six awards tonight have been awarded, congratulations to those who won the awards." ”

"The current situation is that "Farewell My Concubine" has won two awards in a row, and it is far ahead for the time being. ”

"That's right, but 'Mississippi is Burning' was also good, it won the Best Actor award, and I saw it during the show. ”

"It's a very good film. ”

"Some of the questions and thoughts on the issues are worth pondering, and I hope this film can continue to work hard and strive for more awards. ”

"There is no shortage of dark horses at film award ceremonies, and there may be other dark horses in the future. ”

Liu Songren smiled.

Then he said: "Okay, now we have invited Zhang Xinzhe, a famous Hong Kong singer and known as the prince of love songs, to bring us a song "Faith".

The music sounded, Zhang Xinzhe walked out of the backstage, and a song "Faith" slowly came out of his mouth.

The applause gradually stopped at this point.

Since his debut, Zhang Xinzhe has released two albums, both of which have created very excellent results and have a high reputation throughout Asia.

But because he focuses on music, unlike Andy Lau, Guo Fucheng and others who take care of movies.

Therefore, in terms of fame, it is lower than Liu Dehua and others.

It's not that Zhang Xinzhe doesn't want to develop in movies, but his appearance is really not that 'handsome', and the camera sense is also very average.

There is no advantage in the talent-rich Hong Kong film industry, so it is better to focus on music.

Next up was the Best Director Award, presented by Xiang Huaqiang, President of Hong Kong Yongsheng Film Company, and Ho Ching, President of Singapore Media Group.

As soon as the two of them stood still, Xiang Huaqiang did not speak, but made a gesture of invitation to He Jing.

He Jing nodded and smiled, and did not shirk, and said, "Tonight is the first award ceremony of the Hong Kong International Film Festival since its establishment. ”

"It is an honor to receive the invitation of the organizing committee to present the Best Director Award. ”

"As long as you have a little film knowledge, you know that a movie can do without good actors, but it must not do without a good director. ”

"Because a good director can try to make up for the lack of actors through specific techniques and shooting techniques. ”

"It's very difficult to be a good director. ”

"In Hong Kong, there are not many excellent actors, but I am afraid that the directors who can be worthy of the word 'excellent' can be counted with two pairs of hands. ”

Ho Ching is not only the CEO of Singapore Media Group, but also the daughter-in-law of current Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew.

Since the founding of Singapore, the Lee Kuan Yew family has played a very important role in Singapore's political and economic activities.

Many large state-owned enterprises are controlled by Lee Kuan Yew's relatives or cronies.

It's like Singapore Media Group.

Singapore Media Group is the largest media group in Singapore and a state-owned enterprise with operations in television, radio, film and television, newspapers and other media.

It is the most comprehensive media platform in Singapore, occupying a de facto monopoly position.

In the past two years,

Singapore Media Group has cooperated with Webster many times, and most of the TV series it has purchased in the past two years have come from Tianheng Film and Television.

Recently, I also plan to cooperate with Tianheng Film and Television to shoot TV series.

Negotiations are currently ongoing.

Xiang Huaqiang faced the audience and nodded thoughtfully.

"Ms. Ho is right, let alone in Hong Kong, there are not many directors who can really be called excellent even in the whole world. ”

"Now let's take a look at who the best director will be at this year's Hong Kong International Film Festival. ”

As usual, the man opened the envelope and handed it to He Jing. At this time, Guan Jinpeng in the audience immediately became nervous, you must know that he is the favorite to win the award.

But it's just the hot spots, and anything can happen until the final results are announced.

What's more, several directors shortlisted for the feature film unit of the main competition this time are very powerful, such as Alan Parker of "Mississippi is Burning".

and Lake Gellich of "The White Rose".

In addition, there is one point that is also very unfavorable to him, "Farewell My Concubine" has already won two awards, if you win too many awards,

It is inevitable that the impartiality of the jury will be questioned.

"The winner of the Best Director Award at the 12th Hong Kong International Film Festival was Lake Gellich for "The White Rose". ”

Really.

When he heard He Jing say the winner, Guan Jinpeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is the first time that the Hong Kong International Film Festival has set up awards,

Balance is important.

With applause, Lake Gellitch walked onto the stage with a smile on his face.

Offstage, Zeng Huaqian leaned over and whispered in Wei Xiong's ear: "I went to watch this film specially, I think it's quite ordinary." ”

"Hehe, if all the awards are won by Hong Kong films, who will come next year. ”

Wei Xiong smiled lightly.

What he said is a very real problem, if the influence and authority of the Hong Kong Film Festival cannot be compared with the three major European film festivals.

So the most important thing is to accumulate popularity and influence.

At the same time, special attention should be paid to the fairness of the jury, which will help attract more excellent films and filmmakers to participate in the festival.

In fact, at the time of the jury's establishment,

He held a secret meeting with Steven Spielberg and other key members of the jury.

set the tone of this year's film festival,

That is, it is mainly art, but also business. This is not an interference with the fairness and impartiality of the jury's evaluation, but can only be regarded as an unspoken rule.

On this basis, the jury can conduct a fair and impartial evaluation.

Zeng Huaqian nodded clearly: "Now there are only the Jury Award and the Golden Bauhinia Award, which movie won these two awards?"

Wei Xiong smiled slightly: "You'll know later." ”

Hearing this, Zeng Huaqian suddenly glanced at Wei Xiong angrily, but she didn't say anything.

Lake Gellitch stepped down happily after his acceptance speech. So far, three films have won awards.

It's really hard to say who will win the Golden Bauhinia Award in the end.

As for the Grand Jury Prize, although it is not explicitly stated, in a sense, this award is intended for films that are not in competition.

The films in the two main competition feature films and short films are basically not likely to win this award.
