Chapter 208: Queen's Crown

reluctantly restrained the nausea in his heart, shook hands with the two, and Zhang Yimou took the opportunity to praise: "Mr. Xiao, I didn't expect you to be not only a screenwriter and director, but also an actor. ...... later"

Xiao Ran almost burst out laughing, Zhang Yimou obviously wanted to say that he would have the opportunity to make a film with him in the future, but he swallowed it back when he thought of Xiao Ran's identity in time. Just kidding, Xiao Ran is not one of those actors who waits for the play to start, if he wants to act, it is not a problem to even find all the actors in Hong Kong to play the role.

motioned to Cheng Xiaodong to take them in, Cheng Xiaodong immediately nodded knowingly and led the two in, saving Xiao Ran from being upset. Lin Qingxia's eyes flashed with a smile, and she asked softly, "You don't like these two people?" ”

Xiao Ran shook his head gently, not because he didn't like it, but because he hated it. Although he knew that this intuitive dislike was not necessarily in his own interest, sometimes feelings were like that. However, if anyone who stands in his position more than ten years later, I am afraid that he will not have any good impression of Zhang Yimou, as for Gong Li, he will have different opinions.

After a while, Xiao Ran saw Wei Dongling holding Li Jiaxin's hand with a happy face and drilling down the Rolls-Royce that made him gnash his teeth, and seeing Wei Dongling's expression, Xiao Ran couldn't help but feel comforted. Wei Dongling worked very hard, but because of the gradual decentralization of power after the split, it was relaxed for a while, but this guy was born a workaholic, and he had to find trouble when he had nothing to do.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Ran was able to relax, and the company was extremely organized. Wei Dongling's ability is becoming more and more like a leader of a multinational group, and Xiao Ran knows that in a few years, Wei Dongling will be able to completely take over all the power that belongs to the CEO. However, the problem of Wei Dongling's female companion has always been a matter of Xiao Ran's heart, and now seeing this scene, of course I am comforted.

Without waiting for the two, Xiao Ran caught up with Xu Ke and his wife in front, and the relationship between this couple and Xiao Ran and his wife was definitely quite good. In history, Lin Qingxia has always been very grateful to Xu Ke for his kindness, and when she got married, she only invited a few friends in the circle, and Xu Ke was one of them.

Catching up and talking while entering the venue, Xiao Ran remembered something, couldn't help but smile and said lightly: "Lao Xu, you collaborated with Li Lianjie on a film, what do you think of him, is there any need to become popular?" ”

Xu Ke thought for a while, and then smiled: "He is still good, he has good skills and good appearance, the only flaw is that he has no acting skills!" ”

has no acting skills, this is an old problem of classmate Li! Xiao Ran secretly sighed that Li Lianjie really relied on his fists and feet to fight the world, and he had no acting skills at all. If there is no favor from Xu Ke, Li Lianjie is afraid that he will just be silent, or simply become a martial artist until he is old.

Thinking of Li Lianjie, Xiao Ran felt extremely funny. Li Lianjie really deserves to be the generation that grew up under the five-star red flag, and within a few years of coming to Hong Kong to develop, he raised money to direct a "Chinese Hero" by himself. Don't underestimate this film, it can be regarded as a blockbuster at that time.

If you are serious about the content of the film, you will definitely not mention any political position. However, what is revealed in this film is hatred for Europe and the United States and Yueben, and in connection with Li Lianjie's background, the political position is extremely obvious, and he was almost completely put into the cold because of this film. However, it can also be seen that Li Lianjie was still very affectionate towards the mainland political axe.

If Xiao Ran hadn't signed him, I was afraid that he would have to remain silent for a long time before he got the opportunity to take the lead. Fortunately now, "Once Upon a Time" was completed at the beginning of the year, but it has not yet been released.

Entering the venue, Xiao Ran suddenly noticed that a gaze was piercing his back like a nail. frowned slightly, the only people in the circle who could have such hostility towards him were Mo Huaien and Old Man Shao.

He didn't even look back, but when that gaze was closer, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Mr. Mo, you're late." ”

Mo Huaien couldn't help but change his face slightly, and sneered: "Mr. Xiao, I'm afraid you're early!" It's still some time before the beginning, and it's better to come early than to be lucky, don't you know? ”

"However, I believe that the early bird has worms." Xiao Ran glanced at Mo Huaien, who also had an unfathomable face, and smiled lightly: "I'm early, so I'll have bugs to eat later." You're late, so just eat the rest of me slowly! ”

Lin Qingxia couldn't help laughing, Xiao Ran's words were really stinging enough, and every sentence pierced Mo Huaien's sadness. This time, Mo Huaien was not provoked, but smiled calmly: "That's not necessarily, if you don't believe it, let's see!" ”

Seeing Mo Huaien and Tielong gradually walking away, Xiao Ran smiled happily and muttered to himself: "I'm afraid you won't have a chance to eat insects!" Suddenly, he noticed that Mo Huaien had a sharp gaze sweeping towards him in the direction of his departure, and when he looked up, it was the iron dragon who looked at him, and there was hostility in that gaze.

"It's weird, when did I offend so many people?" Xiao Ran didn't quite understand why Tielong had such an expression, so he tilted his head in confusion, and then found a chair with Lin Qingxia to sit down.

In the 9th Academy Awards, Debao and Tianluo have finally improved a little bit compared to last year, and have won several awards respectively. It's a pity that the Phantom still won most of the awards, such as the best movie song, which was won by "Endless Melody".

This song was not sung by the Justice Brothers, but was sung by a European and American singer after winning the cover copyright. The one who sings this song is a romantic beauty, very beautiful kind, and the voice is quite good, although in a sense, it is still not as good as the original song, but it is quite good.

This song was definitely the most popular song last year, and after the popularity of "People and Ghosts", this song quickly spread. Because of the language, the song was extremely popular in Europe, and Ethereal also took the opportunity to buy a record label in the United Kingdom, which was launched and sold to a full house.

Giving prizes is an event where joy and frustration coexist, and people can always taste the taste of winning and losing, which is no different from the size of the bet. Xiao Ran even thinks that such a film award can be popular with the public and filmmakers, but partly because it satisfies the gambling surname of a few people.

Xiao Ran was not shortlisted for Best Screenplay, although a considerable part of Phantom's best-selling blockbusters last year were from his creativity, but he only took the creative position, and the screenwriter let others take it. He thinks that if he wins another award, it will simply hinder the newcomer from taking the position.

In fact, each of Xiao Ran's works is a hot seller, and his name is no less than Fa Ge in Southeast Asia. Under this circumstance, Xiao Ran naturally became the number one screenwriter in Southeast Asia, and this title is definitely as stable as Mount Tai. In that case, why should he fight for this false name again, and the most important thing is that this is not the best film and best director that he values.

Best Screenplay was won by the screenwriter of The Phantom, and then Best Actress. This is an award that Xiao Ran is extremely nervous about, he has always felt that it is an extreme pity that Lin Qingxia has never been able to win the Best Actress at the Academy Awards, and now he thinks that he can realize this dream for Lin Qingxia.

What is extremely funny is that thinking of this, Xiao Ran actually thought of Liu Hua. He was hesitating whether to follow the history and let Liu Hua never be able to get the award. He knows very well that Liu Hua regards winning awards as a goal, and it can even be said to be the motivation for him to work hard to improve his acting skills. If you get the actor so early, I'm afraid this motivation will be gone.

What do you want to do with this? He couldn't help but shake his head, Liu Hua had already defected to Hongguo. Glancing at Hongguo's seat, which was full of many stars who had defected from the Phantom, Xiao Ran's smile became extremely bright.

The guests of honor for Best Actress were Xiao Ran and Ye Tong, when he and Ye Tong appeared on the steps and walked slowly to the front of the stage, Ye Tong stared at Xiao Ran with a smile and said, "Director Xiao, this time I am presenting the award with you again, we are really fateful." ”

"Still don't want it!" Xiao Ran smiled lightly and casually made a joke: "I already have a relationship with Lin Qingxia, and I can't have a relationship with other people anymore!" ”

Ye Tong couldn't help but smile: "Then Director Xiao, do you think Lin Qingxia can win the award this time?" I think it's very likely, otherwise why would the organizing committee want you to present this award! ”

Xiao Ran thought about this, so he was at least seventy percent sure that Lin Qingxia would win the award. However, this time Ye Tong said that the organizing committee may not think like this: "From my standpoint, of course I hope she wins the award." However, since it's a guest, I'm not going to be biased, let's take a look at the list of nominees first! ”

"The nominees for Best Actress at the 9th Hong Kong Film Awards are: Lin Qingxia, "People and Ghosts Are Not Over"; Wu Jiali, "The First Cocoon"; Feng Baobao, "Flying Over the Dusk"; Zhang Aijia, "Eight Liang Gold"; Zhang Manyu, "The Man Who Doesn't Take Off His Socks"; Liu Jialing, "The Lying Woman......"

Of course, this "Eight Liang Gold" is not the eight taels of gold known as the four ugly men in Hong Kong in the future, but the work of Zhang Wanyao and Luo Qirui, and it is also a very outstanding literary film of Debao this year. And director Chen You's "The Woman Who Doesn't Take Off Her Socks" is regarded as Zhang Manyu's reborn work in history, officially stepping from a vase to a charming woman, this film is produced by Eryou Film Company, but it is produced by Phantom Investment.

"The Lying Woman" is a film by Golden Harvest, directed by Ou Dingping and produced by Cheng Long. This film also stars the big-eyed beauty Guan Zhilin and Zhang Xueyou's girlfriend Luo Meiwei. Of course, Golden Harvest's current films have all been bought by Xiao Ran. "Flying Over the Dusk" is a phantom film, directed by Zhang Zhiliang, and Feng Baobao plays the role of a mother in the film.

"Have you seen it, these nominees are very powerful, I'm a little worried!" Xiao Ran smiled, and the tension in his heart became more and more nervous. If my wife can't win the award this time, when "Undefeated in the East" comes out, I'm afraid the chances will be even slimmer, but this time everyone is indeed the strongest of the strong.

"Don't worry, whether you win the award or not, Mrs. Xiao is the number one Chinese actress!" Ye Tong smiled, she wasn't making a sycophant, "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" is not only Lin Qingxia, who is already a top Chinese actress, has become the most appealing actress in Southeast Asia, but also quite famous in Europe.

Seeing Xiao Ran on stage, Lin Qingxia felt a sweet taste in her heart, it was actually very lucky to have a husband who thought about her like this, wasn't it? Xiao Ran on the stage opened the post and took out the results, his heart trembled slightly. On the post, there were only three conspicuous big words left in his eyes - Lin Qingxia!

Actress? Xiao Ran suppressed the joy in his heart and handed the result to Ye Tong to look at, Ye Tong was also full of smiles when he saw it, and motioned for Xiao Ran to read it out. At this moment, Xiao Ran's tense nerves relaxed, glanced at the audience, fixed his gaze on Lin Qingxia's face, and then shouted happily: "The Best Actress at the 9th Hong Kong Film Awards is ...... Lin Qingxia! ”

Lin Qingxia immediately raised her eyebrows, if she was not nervous, it was definitely false. For an influential and high-level film award, no one will refuse, she has been in Hong Kong for several years to develop, but she has not won a masterpiece until "The Love of People and Ghosts" was born.

and Zhang Aijia congratulated each other, and Lin Qingxia walked out of her seat and walked onto the stage. Ye Tong's expression was not without ridicule, and he gave Xiao Ran a look and asked him to give this award to his wife personally. Xiao Ran stared at Lin Qingxia's small and wonderful nose, and gradually moved to her finely crafted face: "Congratulations! ”

Lin Qingxia obviously saw the joy of being happy for her in Xiao Ran's eyes, and suddenly had the courage to step forward and hug him deeply. Lin Qingxia came to the microphone and pondered for a while, remembering the speech she had prepared earlier: "Thank you to the jury for giving me this award, and thank you to all the staff and actors of "People and Ghosts". However, I am most grateful to Xiao Ran, without his performance cooperation, I would never have won this award! ”

The vast majority of people in the audience understood the meaning of this, not because Xiao Ran opened this play. It is because Xiao Lin's performances in the film that drive each other's performances that can make that scene the most intoxicating scene in film history, and Chen Kexin's understanding of this is particularly deep.

Next is the Best Actor, the judges obviously took into account the contradiction between the Phantom and Hongguo very carefully, and adjusted the award presenters to Zhang Aijia and Zhong Chuhong, abandoning Fa Ge.

Zhong Chuhong and Zhang Aijia didn't say much, and immediately revealed the list of nominees: "The nominees for Best Actor at the 9th Academy Awards are: Zhou Yanfa, "Bloody Heroes"; Cheng Long, "Miracle"; Wu Yaohan, "Flying Over the Dusk"; Hong Jinbao, "Eight Taels of Gold"; Xiao Ran, "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" ......"

"This award makes me very embarrassed...... Zhong Chuhong let out a smile like a silver bell, and said to Zhang Aijia: "If Xiao Ran wins the award, it will be a little embarrassing!" Xiao Ran is the boss of the Phantom Company. ”
