525 [Golden Horse Prosperity]
Of the five nominations for the Best New Actor Award, four were Taiwan. Among the actors on this side of the bay, only Hui Yinghong is from Hong Kong. It seems that the judges of the Golden Horse Awards, on the stage. b. The partiality is not a little bit.
To Wang Zijun's surprise, Leslie Cheung and Guan Zhilin, who were recommended by Wang Zijun to play the male and female protagonists in "Butterfly Change", failed to live up to the judges' eyes, and they didn't even get the nomination for the newcomer award.
After Hu Huizhong stepped down with the trophy, Tao Dawei and Demi, as the hosts. Moore stepped up to the forefront.
Demi. Moore spoke Chinese in a strange and outcast accent and asked Tao Dawei, "Tao, I heard that you worked as an animator at Disney for seven years?" ”
"Not bad." Tao Dawei nodded.
Demi. Moore said, "Then you go back to the stage. b. Are you ready to continue with your previous career? ”
Tao Dawei smiled: "I plan to try some new jobs." ”
Demi. Moore said, "How about being a director? Maybe if you make a movie this year, you can win the New Director Award at the Golden Horse Awards next year. ”
"Possibly." Tao Dawei smiled and pulled out an envelope, "But before that, I'm better to be an honest host." The next announcement is the Best New Director Award at this year's Golden Horse Awards. The nominees for new directors include Wu Wenqin's "Incense" ......"
Wu Wenqin is the later Wu Nianzhen, at the beginning of the year, he took the script of "Incense" to Wang's Film Company to apply for a screenwriter, but was politely rejected. When he went downstairs, he met Wang Zijun, and Wang Zijun asked him to go to work in the company next week, and he didn't pay attention to him after that.
As a result, Wu Wenqin had the courage to walk into Bai Muyang's office with Wang Zijun's business card, Bai Muyang thought that he was a talent that Wang Zijun fancied, and as soon as his head was hot, he made a decision to let him shoot "Incense" by himself. Because the investment in this film is not big anyway, it is regarded as cultivating the actor team, and there is not much loss if it is lost.
As a result, Wu Wenqin, who was a director for the first time, filmed "Incense" and had a good response, although the box office was not much, but it also made a small profit.
"Wang, this Miss Moore is in Taiwan. b. Are Americans actors? "Elizabeth. Taylor asked suddenly, she had little interest in the Golden Horse Awards. But after listening to the introduction of the portable translator, it was to Demi. Moore, a compatriot, gave attention.
"Yes." Wang Zijun gave a general introduction to Demi. Moore's experience.
There are only two foreign beauties who were brought to Hong Kong and Taiwan by Wang Zijun to develop. One is Laura. Foner, Laura. Funa signed a five-year contract with Wang, went back to Spain last month to visit relatives, and went to participate in the Miss Spain pageant by the way. The second is Demi. Moles. Come to Taiwan. After the bay, she didn't make a few movies, but she starred in several TV series of the Republic of China, playing the roles of Miss Yang, nurses, nuns and the like. At the same time, she is also a frequent guest on several TV variety shows. Moore's quirky Chinese pronunciation was very funny, and many viewers sat in front of the TV. Just to listen to this foreign beauty speak broken Chinese.
James. Mason interjected: "Zachary, this Miss Moore can actually go to Hollywood to develop, and her appearance is very good." ”
"I'll take her there when the time is right." Wang Zijun said. The Maldivian promotional film he is about to make is a total of two heroines. I have basically set the heroine's actor in my heart, one is Laura. Foner, one is Demi. Moles.
Tao Dawei on the stage continued to read: "Chen Junliang's "Spring Cold" ......"
Chen Junliang was read by name. Stand up with joy. turned around and waved to the person behind him, as a director, he was able to get out of the way. Ten years ago, he plunged headlong into the film industry, and it was only a few years ago that he had the opportunity to become an assistant director. After that, he plunged into the TV circle in despair, and it was not until last year that he had the opportunity to be a film director for the first time. And I shot two films in a row at once. …,
The movie "Spring Cold" is produced by a small company called "Birch Liang", but the distribution company is good, and it is handled by Xinya Company. But just by looking at the list of actors in this play, you know that the behind-the-scenes investors are very good, Feng Feifei, Liang Xiushen, Liu Shangqian, Gui Yalei, Ge Xiangting...... It's all on the stage today. A first-line artist in the entertainment industry.
This movie was actually invested by Golin Records.
"Spring Cold" is placed in today's Chinese movies, no matter from that aspect, it can only be ranked in the middle and upper ranks. But there is one thing that is very eye-catching, and that is that the portrayal of Japanese people in the film is very profound.
Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between Chinese mainland and Japan, Taiwan. The bay side began to shoot anti-Japanese anti-anti-anti-anti-Japanese. A total of promotional videos. In these films, altogether. The party is bandits and robbers, while the Japanese are all fierce and brutal, almost all carved out of a mold.
At the beginning, the audience was still more accepting of this setting, but after watching too much, it has been a little annoying in the past two years. As soon as you mention anti-Japanese movies, you know that it must be the Japanese who do bad things, and then how the Chinese are glorious and majestic.
Therefore, some directors began to seek change, like making spy war films, which was not first proposed by Wang Zijun, but there was a station last year. Director Bay began to make spy war-themed movies, which caused a little sensation. and "Spring Cold" is a literary romance film dressed in the skin of an anti-Japanese film. The image of the Japanese Osa in it is very comprehensive, and it can even be said to be beautified in the early stage, handsome and chic, polite, and crazy in pursuit of the heroine played by Feng Feifei. But at the same time
sinister and vicious, he sent Feng Feifei's lover to Southeast Asia to work as a coolie, and later failed to court, and wanted to force J, revealing his true colors.
It can be said that "Spring Cold" is the platform of these years. The transformation masterpiece of anti-Japanese films, the Japanese are no longer figurative villains, but flesh-and-blood villains.
It's just that there is a suspicion of beautifying the Japanese in the film, so the Taiwan authorities did not do any publicity for this anti-Japanese film.
"Hitohide Kobayashi "The Wind" ......"
The next nominee made Wang Zijun quite amused, the Japanese made anti-Japanese propaganda films, how awkward to say. Perhaps the people in the Information Bureau felt that the anti-Japanese films made by the Japanese were very convincing, and when "The Wind" was released two months ago, the Information Bureau helped to vigorously publicize it.
The final effect is also good, and the suspenseful and tense atmosphere created in "The Wind" makes the audience of this matter quite useful. Coupled with the help of the Information Bureau, "The Wind" is on this year's stage. In the local box office list, it temporarily ranked fifth.
The next two nominations, one is Tsui Hark, who filmed "Butterfly Change", and the other is Bao Songren from First Pictures.
Among the several rookie directors, three are from Taiwan. b, one from Hong Kong and one from Japan.
Among them, Chen Junliang, who filmed "Spring Cold", definitely did not win the award, because the Information Bureau had a lot of complaints about this so-called anti-Japanese film. Wu Wenqin, who filmed "Incense", also didn't have much hope, because there were not many highlights in this film.
"Next, I would like to invite Mr. Li Jia, a famous director of the Republic of China, to announce the winners and present the awards."
One is fifty or sixty years old. The gray-haired old man walked to the stage. This person worked as a reporter and editor in Xiamen during the Anti-Japanese War, and later in Taiwan. Bay China Film Company is the production director of the production department. Many popular films were made in the fifties and sixties. After Mei Changling was transferred from China Film Company to China TV as the general manager, Mr. Li Jia also went to China Television as a drama instructor for TV dramas.
Li Jia said: "I am very happy to be the guest of honor today, because I am presenting the New Director Award. I think it's very good that the Golden Horse Awards have set up this award. Give young people more opportunities to show their faces. As he spoke, he opened the envelope, and after reading the name on it, his face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, and announced, "The winner of the Best New Director Award is Hitohide Kobayashi." ”
Obviously. This old gentleman, who had experienced the Anti-Japanese War, was very unhappy with the Japanese, and when he handed the trophy to Hitohide Kobayashi, the smile on his face was a little stiff. …,
Huang Hanzhuo, who was sitting on the other side, was a little speechless, and the two Best Newcomer Awards were all won by Wang's Pictures. His First Pictures could only watch from the sidelines. (said that he couldn't find Huang Hanzhuo's book friend, but in fact, his name was Huang Zhuohan.) After the first clerical error, Lao Wang was too lazy to change it. It's always wrong. Huang Zhuohan is a very good person. Producer, screenwriter, director, photography, editing, and distribution are proficient in everything, known as the "decathlon". )
Hitohide Kobayashi took the trophy from Li Jia and didn't thank this, thank you. Instead, he said, "My father is Japanese, and my mother is Japanese-Chinese. I've loved Chinese culture since I was a child. It is my great pleasure to announce that I have joined the PRC. nationality of the country. From now on, I am a complete Chinese, my name is Lin Renxiu, and there is no such person as Xiaolin Renxiu. ”
Such a speech admiring the Celestial Empire immediately won the favor of all the Chinese present, and even the old man Li Jia, who was a little hateful, finally showed a sincere smile.
Wang Zijun felt that this guy was too shameless. Running to the podium to make this kind of speech is nothing more than to get rid of his current embarrassing status. To know, national. The party's anti-Japanese resistance in recent years. The propaganda of the Communist Party is not without effect, there is a large number of people who have a bad impression of Japan, and Hitohide Kobayashi wants to be in Taiwan. If you want to develop, you must lose your Japanese identity.
I don't know if he will regret it in the future, in a few years, the identity of the Japanese will be in Taiwan. Bay is popular.
Our Mr. Hayashi Renxiu obviously hadn't lost his habit of being Japanese, and he bowed to the Japanese standard before he stepped off the stage excitedly.
Next came the selection of the best feature film art design and soundtrack, all of which were taken away by Hu Jinquan's "Legend in the Mountains". And Hu Jinquan is the director of Wang's Pictures, that is to say, the opening four awards were all won by Wang's Pictures.
This is not the partiality of the judges of the Golden Horse Awards, but the embodiment of Wang's strength, Wang's now brings together three generations of outstanding directors from the old, middle and young generations, and various types of films are emerging in endlessly. Whether it is the box office or the trophy, Wang's Pictures is the first in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Of course, the Kuomintang party-run film institutions such as the China Film Company and the Taiwan Production Factory do not count.
As for First Pictures, whether it admits it or not, it has been catching up with and imitating Wang's Pictures in the past two years, and even like Wang's, it has spun off an entertainment brokerage company.
And what about Hong Kong? The Shaw Brothers are already showing signs of exhaustion, and they are gradually unable to keep up with the pace of film development, and they are still using the same set as ten years ago. Zou Wenhuai's Golden Harvest has obviously suppressed the old club Shaw Brothers, but it seems that the development has also reached a bottleneck.
However, Siyuan Pictures has developed rapidly, but it has not been able to form a climate like Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest. After all, no matter how you say it, Siyuan Pictures is just a satellite company of Golden Harvest.
The most coquettish in Hong Kong in recent years are the Xu Guanwen brothers, as well as their Hui Brothers Film Company, and all the departments produced can be ranked in the top three of the annual box office. However, this does not mean anything, no matter how popular the films of the Xu Brothers Film Company are, they are just a relatively good production company, not only does it have no distribution ability, but even because it was stained with Xiang Huaqiang from the beginning, his films are the money laundering tools of Xin Ngee An.
Last year, Wang's Pictures' annual output of films was 19, and this year is only October, 16 have been released, and I believe that by the end of the year, there will likely be an annual output of about 25 films. Southeast Asia has completely become a dumping market for Hong Kong and Taiwan films, and Wang's film departments are making money there. The successive anti-foreign film laws introduced by Southeast Asian countries have also harmed the interests of their own film companies. had to go out and scrap, scrap and come out.
And in Japan. Wong has at least three good films released in Japan every year, and it can be regarded as gaining a foothold in the resurgent Japanese film market. …,
The next two awards for Best Feature Film Recording and Interlude were also won away by Wang's "Legend in the Mountains" and "Huanyan" respectively, as if this Golden Horse Award was a special show of Wang's Pictures.
"A warm welcome to Ms. Chan Shuhua from Rolling Stone. Bring you "Love the country and love the beauty more"! ”
Chen Shuhua wore a white dress and wore long hair and slowly walked out of the backstage. Before anyone arrived, the song had already sounded:
"The road is not full of red dust and luxury,
can't tell the grievances of the world,
It has been fate for generations.
……
Love the country. Love beauty more,
What hero would rather be alone?
Good son, full of guts,
Ambition and pride are famous all over the world.
Life is just a few autumns,
Don't get drunk and don't give up.
My beauty in the east.
The Yellow River flows to the west.
Come on, have a drink,
Don't get drunk and don't give up
……”
Later, some people said that where there are Chinese, you can hear this song "Love Jiangshan and Love Beauty More", which is a bit big. But from another aspect, it speaks of how much the song is loved.
The demure and gentle Chen Shuhua. opened his mouth to spit out the classical but simple lyrics, which instantly touched the hearts of many people at the scene.
"Who is this singer?"
"What record label is Rolling Stone?"
“……”
There was already someone in the audience whispering. Today's Taiwan. Bay movies are still very closely related to songs, especially literary films, it seems that you don't have an exclusive episode. It's like having no face to take it out and release it. Sometimes, even a song can make a movie box office. Even the Golden Horse Awards set up an award for Best Drama Interlude. The importance of songs
It can be seen.
In this case, filmmakers naturally hope to find good singers to work with, and Chen Shuhua's style is very suitable for singing interludes for movies.
Rolling Stone's promotion of its "One King and Three Queens" has been going on for two months, and it has amassed a large number of fans by showing off on TV and some hotel nightclubs. And today's appearance at the Golden Horse Awards ceremony was also won by Wang Zijun for them. It is believed that with the broadcast of the award ceremony on the TV station, Chen Shuhua will become popular overnight.
The best cinematography and best editing awards were all taken away by Wang's "The Wind", and it was not until Li Hanxiang's "Qianlong Goes to Yangzhou" that the best adapted screenplay award was finally broken.
Wang Zijun happily watched the trophies fall into the pocket of Wang's Pictures, and it was not until the announcement of the Best Child Star Award that Wang Zijun laughed.
"The winner of the Best Child Star Award at this year's Golden Horse Awards is Oudi's "Tales of a Small Town"!"
Although it is not the first time that Wang Zijun has heard Oudi's name, every time he hears it, he can't help but think of Oudi Ouhansheng.
Of course, this Oudi is not the other Oudi, and the later Oudi is only three months old at this time.
"There are many stories in a small town,
Full of joy and joy,
If you come to a small town,
The harvest is particularly rewarding.
Looks like a painting,
Sounds like a song
……”
When Teresa Teng walked out wearing a silk cheongsam, as soon as the first line of the lyrics was sung, the audience burst into warm applause in this short gap.
After singing for a while, Teresa Teng walked to the stage, shook hands with Song Chuyu first, and then walked all the way to Wang Zijun's side. Of course, in the eyes of outsiders, Teresa Teng came to greet Elizabeth. Taylor and James. Mason's.
"I couldn't understand what she was singing, but I thought it was good." Elizabeth. After Teresa Teng left, Taylor asked Wang Zijun, "Wang, that young lady just now is Taiwan. b. The best singer? ”
Wang Zijun smiled: "Sort of." You can't say the best, or someone will protest. ”
"Are you the one protesting? I've almost forgotten that you're still a singer. "Elizabeth. Taylor laughed. …,
Wang Zijun shrugged.
After the Best Supporting Actor and Actress awards, there was a performance by the Radiant Band, which was the last time they performed at such an event.
This band, which should have been unknown but has been popular in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia for seven years due to the influence of Wang Zijun, has decided to disband. The farewell concert will be held at the end of the year, and Wang Zijun will also be a guest performer at that time.
Then, it's a matter of going their separate ways.
The band is like this, no matter how popular it is, it can't survive the invasion of time, and the temptation from the outside and the internal contradictions of the band members all contribute to the dissolution of the band.
After the performance of the Shining Band, Wang Zijun was invited to the stage to announce the winners of the best director.
Wang Zijun smiled as soon as he opened the envelope, adjusted the angle of the microphone and said: "The best director who won this year's Golden Horse Awards is Hu Jinquan's "Legend in the Mountains". ”
Well, it's Wang's movie again.
"Legend in the Mountains" is too fierce, although the box office is not very high, but it is quite the appetite of the judges, and it won a bunch of trophies in one fell swoop.
Cheng Long sat down bored, he is now Wang's number one star, and his movies have topped the box office charts in Hong Kong and Taiwan for two consecutive years. It's a pity that whether it is the trophy of the Golden Horse Awards or the trophy of the Asian Film Festival, it has nothing to do with him.
Even Ming Ji, the boss of China Film Company, awarded Li Xing the Best Feature Film trophy that didn't make Cheng Long interested. Taylor handed over the name of Best Actress, and Cheng Long suddenly sat up straight.
Men are lustful animals, and Cheng Long is also a man, and he is a man among men. He has had a crush on many women, but it is very tragic, Lin Qingxia, Lin Fengjiao, and Teresa Teng are all bosses' women.
Cheng Long didn't have the courage to rob a woman with Brother Jun.
Hu Huizhong held the trophy high again, and said who he thanked for his acceptance speech, Cheng Long looked a little stupid, and wondered if the one in front of him was eaten by the boss. If Hu Huizhong hasn't followed the boss yet, then he can do it.

Five thousand first, and five thousand words around 10 p.m.
In addition, don't be too long-winded in these two chapters, mainly to introduce the situation of the Hong Kong and Taiwan film circles that have not been discussed in detail. Your support is my biggest motivation. )
