Chapter 353. Two cities in a row!

"I understand that the award-winning filmmakers are very excited, but ......" Zeng Zhiwei's unique and hilarious voice sounded. But I'm worriedβ€”"

What's the matter, how did this old man get to the stage?

The big guy looked curiously at Zeng Zhiwei, who looked like a dwarf winter melon.

"What are you worried about? Are you worried that you won't be able to win the prize like me in the future? Liu Qingyun asked with a smile.

Zeng Zhiwei, who temporarily acted as the emcee, said with a smile: "Of course not, I am very sure of my acting skills, even if I can't be an actor this time, there will always be one that can get it." What I'm worried about is...... Look at the appearance of Xu Haofeng and Yin Tianyou hugging each other, how jealous it is, especially the fans of FIVE, I'm afraid that as soon as Xu Xiaozi goes out, he will be smashed with eggs! ”

"Wow, no, Xuβ€”but a man!"

"Just because it's a man, everyone will be even more jealous, you know, FIVE is famous, and it is said that there are many men who secretly like him!"

Liu Qingyun covered his mouth, "Won't it?" ”

Zeng Zhiwei said mysteriously: "What won't be, it's not weird, tell you a secret-" leaned into Liu Qingyun's ear.

"I love FIVE, too!"

The sound was transmitted through the microphone, which immediately caused the audience to laugh.

Yin Tianyou was even more embarrassed by Zeng Zhiwei's ridicule, and said: "Okay, viagra, don't tease me, I'm not so attractive!" ”

Zeng Zhiwei: "Why not?" Come, don't suffer, let's hold one too! ”

As he spoke, he hugged the bear.

Yin Tianyou couldn't cry or laugh.

People laughed again.

Here Liu Qingyun really "can't stand it", while making a color towards Yin Tianyou, he said to Zeng Zhiwei: "Senior, you are now a temporary host, pay attention to your demeanor!" ”

Zeng Zhiwei grinned: "The host is also a human." Why are you jealous of me? That's good, don't suffer, I'll let you hug first! ”

After that, Zeng Zhiwei leaned on Liu Qingyun's arms like a child, and said clearly: "How is it, it's interesting enough, right?!" ”

"Haha......"

Everyone laughed at the double reeds of the two. In particular, Zeng Zhiwei's disrespectful appearance as an old man, leaning on the swarthy Liu Qingyun's body like a dwarf winter melon, is very comedic. When everyone had laughed enough, Liu Qingyun pushed away the self-absorbed Zeng Zhiwei and said with a serious face: "Okay, let's stop paying attention to a crazy senior, let's continue to present the award, applause and invite the famous Hong Kong director Mr. Wong Kar-wai to present us with the best cinematography award." ”

mentioned Wong Kar-wai, this person is a Hong Kong literary and artistic film giant. Nickname - "King of Sunglasses", he likes to wear sunglasses when filming, no matter day or night, as long as he appears in the media, he still wears sunglasses, he can't be cool, this person is a benchmark and a banner in Hong Kong literary films.

Wong Kar-wai studied hard all his life and loved to study cinematography. As a result, most of his films are beautifully photographed and cleverly arranged; His main works include "Springtime", "The True Story of A Fei", "In the Mood for Love" and "The Grandmaster". created a pattern of Hong Kong literary films.

And when directing literary films. Wong Kar-wai boldly used cinematographer Christopher Doyle to integrate aesthetics and other concepts into the film, and made a bold attempt in photographic means. For example, the literary film "East Evil and West Poison" directed and filmed by him, this film adds literary and artistic colors to the martial arts plot, the desert is smoky, and the characters have become Gulong-style conceptual martial arts. Added inner monologues of the characters; In martial arts, he imitated Japanese martial arts, with a strong dance format, and he also tried to blend Western aesthetics into traditional Chinese aesthetics to express his literary and artistic thoughts. Therefore, it is called the intoxicating oriental mystery by foreign film critics, and it is a film that blends martial arts, suspense and literary temperament.

It is precisely because Wong Kar-wai has made such outstanding contributions to photography that he presented the Best Photography Award this year. Definitely well deserved.

"There are a lot of people today! It's been a long time since it's been this lively. As a generation of literary masters, Wong Kar-wai smiled as soon as he came up: "I feel very happy tonight, but at the same time very sad." Hehe, I'm glad that the scale and influence of our Hong Kong Film Awards have finally expanded, which is a good thing! But I'm sad that this time I don't have any work nominations, of course, the main reason is that I'm filming slowly, and many bosses are about to hate me to death, in fact, I'm also very aggrieved, I also want to be fast, but I always can't keep up with the pace of these young people, so I say - I'm old! β€œ

Wong Kar-wai's words made everyone laugh good-naturedly, and then unwrapped the envelope as he unpacked. The four shortlisted films appeared again on that film screen, including Tsui Hark's "Journey to the West," whose cinematographer was Tsui Hark's favorite Tsai Chonghui.

Tsai Chonghui is also the 3D photographer of director Tsui Hark, and collaborated with Tsui Hark on "Di Renjie Prequel - Shendu Dragon King" and "Outwitting Tiger Mountain". In addition to many collaborations with Tsui Hark, he also collaborated with Stephen Chow on "Journey to the West" and the 3D movie "Mermaid". Years of accumulation and continuous study of the profession have made him and his works more and more concerned in the industry.

"The shortlisted works are all excellent, but it's a pity. There can only be one best. Wong Kar-wai shrugged his shoulders regretfully, looked at everyone and laughed, and then said: "The best cinematography award is - Cai Chonghui's "Journey to the West"! ”

Cai Chonghui stood up happily, his expression extremely excited. Wong Kar-wai continued: "His reason for winning the award is: he is good at 3D photography, three-dimensional lenses, unique angles, both a sense of scene and a unique sense of beauty, and he deserves this award!" ”

"Thank you. Thank you. The award-winning Cai Chonghui cleared his throat, then touched the trophy and said: "First of all, I would like to thank the producer of this play, Mr. Zhou Xingchi, and the director Mr. Tsui Hark, for their trust in me and giving me a better opportunity to play; Secondly, I would like to thank all the friends in the crew for their cooperation with me, especially the actor of this play, Mr. Yin Tianyou, who has suffered a lot in order to cooperate with my camera, thank you - I will work harder in the future, thank you, thank you! ”

As the producer and director of this play, Zhou Xingchi and Tsui Hark suddenly felt angry and raised their eyebrows.

Originally, when I was planning to shoot the drama "Journey to the West", I didn't expect it to be so successful, and I was able to be favored by the Academy Awards and be nominated. It's just that the previous awards don't have their own part. Finally, one of them was snatched away by Yin Tianyou's "Touching the Golden Captain".

This time I finally got a chance to turn over, which is rare.

Don't look at the two of them just now behaved very calmly and indifferently, but as long as they are men, there is no one who is not competitive, and now the two of them are so happy that they almost hugged and burst into tears.

With "Journey to the West", a little golden man was obtained. At this time, Yin Tianyou's Tianyi Media has won two awards with high gold content, but what is funny is that these two awards were won by two dramas respectively, and it is estimated that only a boss like Yin Tianyou will have such a situation.

With the awarding of the technical awards, the atmosphere of the entire award scene was completely ignited, and the major film companies in front of it, as well as Hong Kong directors and actors, all won the awards, and everyone can say that there was a tie for the time being. It's up to you to see who wins the following prizes.

At this moment, Liu Qingyun, who is the host on the stage, and Zeng Zhiwei, the temporary emcee, are gaging and doing funny performances.

"I'm going to make a movie!" Zeng Zhiwei shook his fat and said seriously.

"You make movies?" Liu Qingyun looked quite surprised, and asked with an exaggerated mouth: "It seems that the movies you have shot in recent years have not been very good at the box office, and they are all old...... Traditionally, it is not "I Love Hong Kong 2013", "Hilarious Gladiator", or "Laughing Gong Zhen Wulin". What other investor is so bold as to dare to use you?! ”

Zeng Zhiwei glanced at her. said angrily: "What does it mean that the box office is not good? My films are over-grossing, such as "Seventy-Two Tenants," "Laughing Rivers and Lakes," and "The Siege of October," which was released nine years ago...... All my box office added up to almost 300 million, so much so that someone gave me a nickname called 'Zeng 300 million'! ”

Liu Qingyun surrendered: "Okay, good, you're amazing." That long can be put on a show - so tell me, what kind of movie are you going to shoot? ”

Zeng Zhiwei twisted his thick waist: "With a handsome face like me and a super strong body, of course I want to shoot the most suitable movie for me, such as "007"!" ”

Liu Qingyun: "......?!" ”

"Are you going to ...... Play 007. James bond?! It can't be Bond's henchman, right? ”

"Cut!" Zeng Zhiwei glanced at him, "Does an excellent actor like me need to be an attendant?" At first glance, I am playing the leading actor - James Bond! "Do 007 with a pistol in hand.

Everyone in the audience almost laughed and bent over.

"What are you laughing at, what's so funny?" Zeng Zhiwei put the gun on his cheek and acted coolly.

Liu Qingyun held back a smile and said, "They are laughing at you for being so fat, how can you play Bond?" ”

"You are really uneducated," Zeng Zhiwei pouted, "Does 007 Bond have to be a handsome guy, can't he be a fat man?" Besides, according to the real secret agent, the more people who are not good-looking, low, fat and stupid, they are qualified to be 007, and even less so if they are as dark as you, the goal is too obvious. ”

Liu Qingyun shook his head and said, "I won't play this role, let it be for you, but ...... Your charisma ......! ”

"You're too underestimated!" Zeng Zhiwei shook his head in a dashing manner and said, "Didn't you see my box office appeal?" As he spoke, he pointed down, "Don't you see that even a super handsome guy like FIVE Yin Tianyou has been throwing an olive branch to me?!" He insisted on starring in my work, saying that even if he played a supporting role, he would chase after me - alas, the popularity is too strong! After saying that, he shook his head feeling good.

Yin Tianyou didn't expect that he could be shot while lying down, and when the light hit him, he had to smile politely.

Zeng Zhiwei still shouted at him: "FIVE, I like you, the supporting actor is reserved for you-!" ”

Yin Tianyou had no choice but to raise his hand and surrender, "Thank you seniors-" and then added, "As long as the salary is suitable......"

"Hahaha!" The crowd all laughed.

……

After this interlude, the award ceremony continued, and two awards were presented on the stage in one go, namely Best Editing and Best Costume at the Hong Kong Film Awards.

Among them, the best editing was won by the movie "Little Luck". The director of this play is Peng Haoxiang, known as a Hong Kong bastard, an alternative director, and his previous famous works include "Chunjiao and Zhiming", as well as "Vulgar Comedy", "Isabella", "Exodus", etc., which have very unique skills in editing techniques, and the story can be grafted together very cleverly through the lens.

As for the drama "Little Luck", the three words "Little Luck" come from Treasure Island, which belongs to a kind of life mentality of young people on Treasure Island.

Not active, not active, with a small sense of luck, can live, not too demanding, only pursue what interests them, and don't care about anything else.

Pang Haoxiang's "Little Luck" is a story that reflects this real situation, and some street scenes on Treasure Island are often edited into the editing, giving people the feeling of shooting a documentary, some similar to Hong Kong director Chen Guo's "Made in Hong Kong" many years ago. The unique perspective and unique editing method make it absolutely deservedly awarded the Best Editing.

As for the best costume, it was picked up by the mainland costume blockbuster "Yang Guifei". This drama is obviously a blockbuster in which mainland bigwigs spend a lot of money to compete for awards, but unfortunately, like the fate of many mainland blockbusters, the structure is grand enough, the background is also gorgeous, and the costumes and props are even more willing to spend money, the first-class of the first-class, but unfortunately the story is too bad, so it can only win the award of best costume design, which is also a comfort to the big boss who threw money, and I don't know what kind of mood he feels about spending hundreds of millions of dollars in exchange for this kind of award......

With the passage of time, gradually, the entire Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony has been held for more than half of the time, and now it is a more critical moment, that is, the award for the best screenplay at this year's Hong Kong Film Awards.

As we all know, although Hong Kong films do not attach great importance to screenwriters like Hollywood, and screenwriters do not have the same power as directors over there, the importance of screenwriters is well known to everyone, a good screenwriter can create a good script, and a good script can make a good movie.

Whether the movie is good or not, the actor is the key, and the script has the final say!

Especially in the Korean entertainment industry where Yoon Tianyou is located, a good screenwriter is even more capable than a director, with a lot more salary than an actor, and has the right to assign his favorite actor as the starring role, and can also add and delete actors' scenes. Therefore, in order to be able to play more and show their faces more, many Korean stars have to tie up with screenwriters, accompany them to eat and drink, and give big gifts through the back door... In Hollywood, there is a strict screenwriting system, and there is also a screenwriters' union to ensure the rights and interests of such people. Therefore, you can often see that the script of a play in Hollywood can sell for millions of dollars, or even tens of millions of dollars, which is higher than the salary of the leading actor.

The screenwriting system in the Chinese film industry is not perfect, and most screenwriters are below the subsistence line, and they often write scripts for a few hundred yuan, and they can be sold for a few thousand yuan. Millions of scripts can be said to be rare, and there are very few. Unless you are the kind of super-awesome screenwriter, you can say more and get more remuneration.

Why is the situation of screenwriters in the Chinese film industry so miserable?

In short, it was caused by the director's "grasp".

As everyone knows. Hong Kong films are shot at a rapid pace, and they are often shot while writing scripts. And in order to control this inhuman progress. The director has to wear many hats, and while being a director, he also thinks about the bridge, so that many directors themselves are the screenwriters of this play!

For example, the more well-known all-rounders in Hong Kong used to include Huang Baiming, the fat man Wang Jing, Zeng Zhiwei, and Xu Ke, etc., and now there are young directors such as Xu Zheng, Chen Zhengdao, Xu Haofeng, and Ning Hao in the mainland.

These people like to make up their own stories and shoot them by themselves, and they directly put the screenwriter aside, and the filming is basically the scenes they write. With confidence and fast shooting, who would spend unjustly money to hire someone to write a script?!

It is precisely because of this rather "deformed" shooting method that Chinese film screenwriters are "cornered", and only some famous gold medal screenwriters can go to the altar and enjoy everyone's cheers, and most of them are sunk in the ocean of the entertainment industry. (To be continued.) )
