Chapter 174: Attending the Golden Horse Awards

Chapter 174 attended the Golden Horse Awards

For Leung Ka Fai, today is undoubtedly a very good day. Although he didn't need to get up so early to fly to Taiwan, he unexpectedly got up very early today.

Some time ago, his career as a stall actually made him accustomed to going to bed late and waking up late. But since he met Lu Yan with Chow Yun-fat yesterday, he suddenly became more energetic.

Since he was admitted to TVB's artist training class in 1981, he has been accustomed to the life of an actor. But when his career began to rise, he was unexpectedly banned by the Taiwan Cultural Bureau. This is definitely a heavy blow to him.

In fact, it was only after Leung Ka-fai came into contact with movies that he realized that he loved the industry so much. Because of this, this opportunity made him look forward to it even more.

He can often see Lu Yan's reports and rumors. Naturally, I also know that although this director is younger than himself, he has very rich strength. If you want to make a movie, you must have connections in all aspects. And this director Lu not only has the strength of Hong Kong, but also has a grandfather in Taiwan who was once famous.

As for Lu Yan, he is naturally willing to help this actor.

In Lu Yan's opinion, he Liang Jiahui is humorous, with sharp edges and corners in appearance but very characterful, very classical charm but extremely heroic. He's so changeable, you can't see what kind of actor he is. He is not inferior to Stephen Chow, he plays a ruthless politician who makes it difficult for you to distinguish the real from the fake, he has a good appetite and never picks fat and thin. His perfect lover-like buttocks are famous all over the world, but he is not moved by fame, he still goes his own way, and in his opinion fame is just a passing cloud. He's as elusive as a solitary evil, and you can't guess what he's going to do next. He doesn't seek fame, acting is just his profession. He is practical and simple; Direct but subtle. He has a very strong personality that fascinates you.

Such an actor is undesirable for Dongcheng Images. Although Leung Jiahui's acting skills have not yet reached their peak, Lu Yan is willing to train these actors in this way to make their acting skills more exquisite.

Compared with this year's Shima Awards, it is also a very shocking year. Because Lu Yan's "True Colors of Heroes" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" are not only swept at the box office, but also very impressive in the nomination of awards.

However, what makes Lu Yan regret the most is that "The True Color of Heroes" is affirmed in the competition for the leading actor. But "A Chinese Ghost Story", neither the male protagonist nor the female protagonist will be able to win the Golden Horse Award this time

"Yan Zai, when you go to Taiwan, bring us a few little golden horses back"

Although Chow Yun-fat wants to follow Lu Yan to Taiwan to participate in the Golden Horse Awards, the filming of "God of Gamblers" has not been suspended. So whether it is Cheng Xiaodong or Liu Weiqiang, they will not go to Taiwan with Lu Yan.

"Don't worry, don't bring back a few little golden horses to our glory room, what will I do in Taiwan" Lu Yan laughed, in fact, he was already relieved whether he won the award or not. This relief is not because he doesn't look down on the Golden Horse Awards, but because after the Academy Awards, he has a more objective understanding of being able to win the award.

As the longest-running film award in the Chinese-language film industry, in fact, the Hong Kong film market has a dispensable mentality for the Golden Horse Awards.

Because the Golden Horse Awards focus on encouraging the creative characteristics of films with strong artistic colors, some filmmakers criticize the Golden Horse Awards for being artistic and abstract, which is not of much help to encourage the development of commercial films in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

And its fairness is not so balanced in the eyes of Hong Kong people now. Especially in the selection of movies, Hong Kong people do not have much good impression of the Golden Horse Awards.

Just like the selection of the 23rd Golden Horse Awards, in addition to Lu Yan's "True Colors of Heroes" and "A Chinese Ghost Story", Hong Kong films were shortlisted only a few works such as "Favorite" and "Every Day and Seven Weeks".

"The Favorite" was written and directed by Zhang Aijia, who is Taiwanese, and "Every Day and Weekly", also known as "Tangshan Over Taiwan", is a co-production between Hong Kong and Taiwan. In the real sense of Hong Kong's local films, it seems that the only ones that have interest are Lu Yan's two works. But what annoys Hong Kong people is that Lu Yan seems to be half Taiwanese in the current sense.

The film that is so popular at the Hong Kong Film Awards is not even eligible for the Golden Horse Awards. This makes Hong Kong people obviously not pay too much attention to the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards

"Brother Fa, you were the Golden Horse actor last time, this year's Academy Awards, and you won the Golden Statue Actor again" Liang Jiahui's words were filled with a hint of excitement.

"If Hui Zai is this Golden Horse Awards, Fa Ge will rob Brother Long's actor Brother Long again, but he will not hesitate to strangle him."

This time, there are only a few actors and Leung Ka-fai who were shortlisted for the awards, such as Lu Yan, Chow Yun-fat, Dillon, Li Zixiong, and Wu Ma.

When Chow Yun-fat heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Don't take it so easy to win the award, Brother Long knows." ”

Dillon is much more bland, after so many years of crawling. If it weren't for starring in "The True Color of Heroes", his acting career might have been dull all the way. To be able to make a hit in Duhong with "The True Color of Heroes", he is already very satisfied. As for whether to win the award, he looked at it very openly: "For the Golden Horse Award, I really don't have any hopes." It's just that you, maybe you can still get the best director."

"Hey, it's obviously the highlight of the two of you, but it's pushed on me again......"

"Director Lu, you are indeed very powerful, you see that this time the best actor is Fa Ge and Brother Long, and the best supporting actor is Xiongzi and Ma Ye...... I really admire you" Leung Jiahui's admiration for Lu Yan, if it was just because of seeing those reports and the box office of the movie before. So this time I personally accompanied to participate in the Golden Horse Awards, so that I could completely understand the grand occasion created by Lu Yan

When Lu Yan heard it, it was really like that. Immediately smiled bitterly: "Hui Zai, as soon as you say this." If you don't win an award for my film in the future, I'm sorry for your praise today."

Although Lu Yan was a little scoffy at this, Chow Yun-fat and others expressed their approval. To a large extent, because Lu Yan is indeed half Taiwanese. In their opinion, there is not much difference between the Golden Horse Awards and the Academy Awards. Because of the region, everyone is more likely to award awards to their own people. And Lu Yan is undoubtedly his own people on both sides......

Arriving at Taiwan's Taoyuan Airport, there were already countless reporters waiting.

If other directors stand next to Chow Yun-fat and they are considered green leaves, then Lu Yan is obviously an alternative director. More reporters seem to be more enthusiastic about interviewing him

After "The True Color of Heroes" caused a sensation in Taiwan, it was followed by a thunderclap on the ground of "A Chinese Ghost Story". The two movies completely created Lu Yan's reputation in Taiwan. plus his legendary family background, as well as his love affair with Wang Zuxian's golden boy and daughter. These journalists, of course, are flocking to them

"Director Lu, this time "The True Color of Heroes" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" have been shortlisted for many awards. Are you looking forward to it? ”

Hearing this, Lu Yan suddenly felt a little speechless. However, his expression was like a spring breeze: "Being able to be shortlisted for the Golden Horse Award is already a recognition for me, and it is a good thing to be able to win the award, even if I can't get it, I won't feel lost." ”

"Do you feel sorry that Wang Zuxian failed to win the Best Actress selection?" In fact, the word 'pity' may become 'dissatisfaction' in the goodbye newspapers.

Now the routines of these reporters and media, Lu Yan has long been clear. He shook his head and said with a smile: "If Xiaoxian can be selected for Best Actress, of course I will be very happy." But since she was defeated, it means that her acting skills still need to be sharpened, and I believe that sooner or later, she will be able to stand on the stage of the Golden Horse Awards."

"Mr. Chow Yun-fat, you just won the Best Actor crown at the Academy Awards for "The True Color of Heroes". And you are the actor of the last Golden Horse Awards, are you looking forward to becoming a double actor this time? ”

"Everyone who is shortlisted is a strong person, just like Brother Dillon is already very satisfied whether he wins the award or not. Of course, I will be very happy to be the Golden Horse actor for a second time......"

Compared with Lu Yan, Chow Yun-fat, and Dillon, they obviously haven't received much attention like Li Zixiong and Wu Ma. After all, whether it is in terms of influence or in the relationship between the two movies, they are not as good as Chow Yun-fat. And Liang Jiahui, the golden statue actor who was banned by the Taiwan Cultural Bureau, has long been forgotten by these reporters?

Who is this person standing next to Lu Yan and them? Maybe it's an assistant

There may be a few sharp-eyed Hong Kong reporters who will think Leung Ka-fai is familiar, but at such a time, they obviously have little heart to imagine who the other party really is

Now Leung Ka-fai is like a passerby

"Let's go to the hotel to rest first, and after dinner, we will participate in the Golden Horse Awards."

Speaking of which, this is the first time that Lu Yan has participated in Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards. But for some reason, he is far from having the same expectations for the Golden Horse Awards as he did for the Academy Awards.

Perhaps, it's because he doesn't know what movie is his opponent at all. Regarding Taiwan's local films, Lu Yan obviously doesn't know much about Taiwanese films of this period.

It is best to win the award, and if you can't get it, it will be regarded as a trip to Taiwan......

This is Lu Yan's current mentality, he doesn't seem to have the consciousness that two movies have seven or eight Golden Horse nominations

He even thought that when he got to the hotel to rest, he would leave home first to see the old man
