169 [Jury Prize and Presidential Award]

At this time, the relationship between journalists and celebrities in various countries is still relatively harmonious, as long as it is not a big mistake made by a celebrity, reporters generally do not ask embarrassing questions.

Wang Zijun walked all the way with Zhao Yazhi in his arms, chatting with reporters very casually from time to time, posing for them to take pictures. When the red carpet was about to end, more and more reporters noticed them and left their original goals to come for interviews.

No way, "Shanghai Tang" is too popular.

Several internationally renowned filmmakers on the jury side looked sideways, and a Malaysian director said in English: "That's Wang Zijun who filmed "Bloody Lonely City", right?" So young. ”

"yes, that's amazing." Yamamoto Safu remembered the shock of the judges when they watched "Bloody Lonely City" a few days ago. They are all famous directors and actors in Asia, and it is natural that they will look at the films with a professional eye. However, the more you examine and explore, the more you can dig out more meaning and ingenuity of the director, the picture is exquisite, the scene is grand, the war scene is unique and realistic, the use of the lens is exquisite and extravagant, the character creation is vivid, and the details are cleverly captured...... In short, its advantages seem to be never exhausted, and the only disadvantage may be that the plot is a little monotonous, because it is a war film, mainly heroic and bloody.

After the war, whether it was a movie, all art was popular with reflection, so some directors suggested that this film did not do enough to reflect on the war, but only showed the heroism of [***] people, so although the commercial value is great, the artistic surname is not good.

There is no deliberate smear of the soldiers in the film, so most of these filmmakers do not contradict this movie -- in fact, they themselves have been trying their best to smear the soldiers a few years ago, and to put it more carefully, they are trying their best to smear the military department. It was not until the economy gradually recovered in recent years, the LDP consciously or unconsciously suppressed the left, and the dregs of the right began to resurge, that these anti-war trends gradually decreased.

"He's a very innovative director, and I've heard that he started a film company from scratch. I think we could invite him to join the Asian Filmmakers Alliance. ”

"No, he's too young, and his company has only made two films, which doesn't meet the standards."

Yamamoto Safu said: "But I have to admit that the new techniques and ideas in his films are enough for us to learn for a year or two." I can guarantee that this young man will be one of the best film masters in Asia in the future. ”

"Who knows? But I think the gift we had for him was enough. ”

"Not bad." The judges laughed and said that the gift was just a coincidence, but it was enough to show their love for the film.

Wang Zijun and Zhao Yazhi sat down, next to them two stars from Thailand. After they saw Wang Zijun and Zhao Yazhi, they hurriedly put together their names, just like chasing stars, asking for their autographs.

On the podium, two South Korean hosts presided over the ceremony in broken English, and Wang Zijun only understood a few words below.

He also asked yesterday why there were no awards such as Best Director at the Asia-Pacific Film Festival, and the answer he got made him laugh and cry.

Since the Southeast Asian Film Festival, the predecessor of the Asia-Pacific Film Festival, was launched 18 years ago, there have been the best director, the best film, and the best cinematography every year.

However, due to the reform of this year's film festival, not only the method has been changed to a film festival, but even the content has been changed beyond recognition, and now many judges do not understand which awards must be moved.

Wang Zijun felt inexplicable when he heard it, what a mess this was.

At this time in Asia, the Golden Horse Awards have only been established for ten years, the Hong Kong Film Awards have not yet been held, and the Tokyo Film Festival has no shadow.

But how many people died in Nima's chaotic change? No wonder it was surpassed by the Golden Horse Awards in less than two years, and in later generations, it was suspended for two or three times because of no sponsorship funds.

What Wang Zijun didn't know was that he won the jackpot, dozens of Asia-Pacific Film Festivals, this year because of the most chaotic reform, there will be awards such as outstanding directors next year, and it will return to normal next year.

The hostess on the stage was announcing the humanitarian award, Wang Zijun didn't bother to listen, he decided not to come to this cheating film festival next year, it was a waste of time.

"The next is the Special Technology Award, which has been nominated for "Monster of Demonstration", "Industrial Reform" Malaysia, "Bloody Lonely City", Republic of China, ......"

is different from Wang Zijun's egg determination, after Zhao Yazhi heard the host's words, she was so excited that she shook Wang Zijun's arm and said happily: "Boss, our movie, our movie ......"

"Zai Zhong, you should read the award-winning movie, I'm so excited." The hostess stroked her chest and said, "I watched this movie the other day, do you know what my first feeling was?" ”

The male host asked very cooperatively: "What is it like?" ”

The hostess said: "My first feeling was, oh my God, is this a human film? ”

The male host laughed and said, "You're scolding the director." ”

The hostess shook her head and said, "No, it's not made by people, it's God's masterpiece." ”

The male host immediately said in the tone of reciting poetry: "The winner of the Special Technology Award at the 18th Asia-Pacific Film Festival is...... "Bloody Lonely City" from the Republic of China. ”

"Oh......" The people of Wang's Film Company cheered in unison, in this era, it is still very good to win the awards of the Asia-Pacific Film Festival, unlike the rotten streets of later generations that no one cares about.

Wang Zijun also put away his lazy expression, after all, this is the first international film award won by his film company. Walking to the podium, the magnesium lights below flickered non-stop, and Wang Zijun suddenly felt a little dazed.

The only award he won in his previous life was the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer when he just appeared on the big screen, and then he never had a chance to win the trophy. Whenever he sees those who accept awards on stage at the film festival, Wang Zijun doesn't say anything, and he doesn't know how envious he is.

The Special Technology Award nominated film "Demonstration Monster" contains the most primitive computer special effects, which is the kind of scum that a later generation of otaku can make better than it at home, but it is very remarkable in this era.

The reason why Wang Zijun's "Bloody Lonely City" was able to defeat "Demonstration Monster" and win this award is because of the large number of explosion scenes in the film, which is not an innovation, but a mature original explosion like child's play, and has a watchable surname, so the jury unanimously voted for "Bloody Lonely City".

It was Li Hanxiang who was in charge of awarding the award, and Wang Zijun took the trophy from him with a smile.

"Young man, yes, do a good job." Li Hanxiang patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Thank you." Wang Zijun picked up the trophy, held the microphone and said, "Thank you to the judges, thank you to every fan, and of course, thank you to the organizers of this film festival." Korea is a vibrant city, and I will come back next time I have the chance. The only regret is that there is no Best Director award at this festival, and I hope that the next one will be restored. Thank you! ”

Wang Zijun's acceptance speech made the jury very speechless, why are you, a rookie director, pointing at us.

The reason why Wang Zijun has no scruples is because he is no longer ready to participate in this cheating film festival. Anyway, it will decline in the future, and it will soon be overtaken by the Golden Horse Awards, what is it doing with birds?

The award ceremony continued, and "Bloody Lonely City" won the Great Scene Award again, but unfortunately the planning award was snatched away by South Korea's "Football Girl".

"The winner of this year's Best Actress is Lin Fengjiao from the Republic of China's "Good Morning Taipei", Li Jing from Hong Kong's "Happy Housewives", and Yi Jingji from South Korea's "Football Girl".

When Lin Fengjiao happily came to the stage to accept the award, Wang Zijun was thundered again, Nima, there are actually three actresses in one session, you should sell cabbage, and bring wholesale.

However, he still responded with warm applause, as soon as Lin Fengjiao entered the film and television industry, she won the queen of the international film festival, which is very beneficial to both the company and herself.

When the three Best Actor trophies were awarded, everyone thought the awards were over, but who knew that the hostess said: "This is the last award tonight, and it is also a temporary addition of the jury to a film by the jury team - the Jury Award!" ”

Everyone was stunned, whether it was a guest or a reporter, or a fan who spent money to come in, they were all very surprised. The jury actually temporarily increased the award for a movie, which shows how much they love this movie.

Journalists from all over the world sharpened their ears to know the name of the film as soon as possible.

"The Grand Jury Prize winner is...... "Bloody Lonely City" from the Republic of China, directed by Wang Zijun. ”

"Papapa......" thunderous applause rang out, and Wang Zijun took the stage again in the spotlight.

All the media reporters are recording that a director who only made one film won the Grand Jury Prize, which is definitely big news.

The shock is not over yet, only to hear the host say again: "I invite Mr. Park Chung-hee, President of South Korea, to present the award to the jury award!" ”

There was an up......roar in the audience, and they didn't know when the president came.

Wang Zijun was slightly stunned, and quickly understood in his heart. I was able to win this award, firstly, because the jury liked my film very much, and the selection of award-winning films at this time was far less boring than that of later generations; The second is that the official meaning of the Asia-Pacific Film Festival is very strong, and this jury award is probably set up specifically for Park Chung-hee to present the award, after all, he is the head of a country, and the award should be different. And it just so happened that Wang Zijun, a movie far ahead of the times, was very popular with the jury, so it hit it off.

I don't know if Park Chung-hee participated in the awards in history, but I don't seem to have heard of the Asia-Pacific Film Festival having a jury award, right?

"Congratulations, young man." Park Chung-hee has a clear face and looks very thin, but he is very energetic and has an elegant temperament, like a university professor.

"Thank you." Wang Zijun took the trophy and said, he turned around and was about to deliver an acceptance speech, when he suddenly saw a reporter more than ten meters away put his hand into his arms, as if he was pulling out a film.

Gun!

Wang Zijun's pupils contracted suddenly, and he suddenly threw Park Chung-hee beside him to the ground.

"Bang!" At that moment, the gunshots rang out, grazing Wang Zijun's scalp and flying by, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
