After the award of the annual Hong Kong and Taiwan director, it was finally the turn of the last two awards of this commendation conference, the director of the year and the film of the year, the first to be awarded was the director of the year, before the award, the singer Li Jian sang live, and then Tian Zhuangzhuang, who was the guest of honor, stepped onto the podium, as the winner of the first annual director, it is undoubtedly the most suitable for him to present this award.

In addition to Lin Yuquan and Jia Zhangke, the other nominee winner is Yin Li, the director of "The Ballad of Yunshui".

"Time flies quickly, in a blink of an eye, it has been two years since the last award, although it is a pity that last year's commendation conference was suspended, but it is gratifying that this year's commendation conference was held again, as an award presenter, I am very happy to stand here, and it is even more honorable to present the award to the director of the year, the only pity is that there is only one award, it is really difficult to choose, because each of them is so good, one is the most influential Chinese director in the world, he is talented, young and handsome, Each film has achieved amazing box office results, and what is even more shocking is that he is too young for any of our directors. Speaking of this, Tian Zhuangzhuang looked at the audience with admiration and looked at him with a smile, the calm young man, and countless directors and stars on the scene also replayed in their minds the big events of the young director who brought them too much shock.

"One is a young director who has won many international awards, and his works are full of humanistic care and artistic depth."

(Many directors have their eyes on Jia Zhangke, the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival, which is a coveted award for art film directors.) Except for Jia Zhangke's "Three Gorges Outsiders". So far. Only Hou Xiaoxian's "City of Sadness", Zhang Yi's "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", Cai Mingliang's "Long Live Love", and Zhang Yi's "No One is Missing" won this honor, and everyone who won the award is an outstanding figure among the directors of the three places.

"There is another one, who has a sense of commoner, and his works are simple directors who reflect the lives of ordinary people, and he hates those hypocritical, contrived, and disease-free pseudo-aristocratic art, and injects a lot of fresh blood and air into his works, which is very personal."

Everyone's eyes turned to a man in the middle of the field with glasses and a shirt. Like an ordinary uncle's middle-aged man, he is Yin Li, as a director, his earlier directing experience was not very successful, what really attracted his attention was the work "Zhang Side" in 04, this main theme film starring Tang Guoqiang and Wu Jun won 40 million box office in one fell swoop in 04, second only to "Kung Fu", "Ambush on All Sides", "Huo Yuanjia" and other films, ranking 10th in the annual box office list that year, 6th in Chinese films, and won the best feature film, best director, and at the 28th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Awards, Three awards for Best Actor. At the same time, he won the Outstanding Director Award and Outstanding Actor Award at the 11th Film Huabiao Awards, which is not an exaggeration to describe it as being born out of nowhere. And his "The Ballad of Yunshui" this year is also very good. It is a domestic romance film with the largest investment in recent years.

It can be said that these three are all exceptionally good directors in the last year, and each of their works has their own characteristics, as Tian Zhuangzhuang said, it is really difficult to choose.

For a while, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn.

"In my opinion, each of them deserves an award, and no matter what the outcome, I would say that you are all very good!" Tian Zhuang said loudly.

The scene of "popping" suddenly burst into warm applause.

"Okay, let's start to enter the awards, and those who have been nominated for Director of the Year are, please look at the big screen."

After Tian Zhuangzhuang's words fell, the highlights of "Painted Skin", "The Good Man of the Three Gorges", and "The Ballad of Yunshui" appeared on the screen one after another.

After the introduction, Tian Zhuangzhuang opened the envelope in his hand, took a look, and said in a deep voice: "The winner is "Painted Skin", Lin Yuquan. ”

"Oh oh", deafening applause and cheers resounded in the conference hall, and many people got up and looked at Lin Yuquan's seat.

"Hey, Yuquan, you've won a prize." "Congratulations, Director Lin." "Haha, I'll just say you'll win at least one of these awards!"

Hearing that it was himself who won the award, Lin Yuquan's heart was also a little excited, no matter how weighty the award is, it is also an award, as long as it is awarded, who will be unhappy.

"Thank you, thank you!" Lin Yuquan got up and hugged a few people, and shook hands with several directors on the way, and then walked to the podium.

"Junior brother, your cousin is very good, and I look forward to what you can do better in Hollywood in the future." Tian Zhuangzhuang handed the trophy and certificate to Lin Yuquan and said with a smile.

"Thanks, I'll try." Lin Yuquan shook hands with Tian Zhuangzhuang, and then stood in front of the microphone: "To be honest, I'm not excited at all now, but I'm very happy, this is the first time I've participated in the activities of the Directors Guild, and then I got such a valuable award for Director of the Year, thank you very much for giving me such a good welcome gift." ”

Many people at the scene laughed.

Lin Yuquan also smiled: "I didn't prepare any testimonials in advance, but I have something to say here, and it would have been better to say it later, but in the next award, I may not have the opportunity to go on stage, so let's talk about it now!" ”

More people laughed now.

But Lin Yuquan didn't smile, but looked extremely heavy: "What do you say? Actually, this is related to the feeling I felt when I attended the director's seminar in the morning, the first time is always so special, it often brings us a lot of real feelings from the heart, for the morning seminar, I don't know what kind of mood the directors here are, but my heart is very heavy, because the situation of filmmakers and the film industry is not so good, and even bad is not an exaggeration, so I feel that I should do something, although what I do is insignificant to improve the overall situation, but it is better to do than not to do well, Then after an afternoon of thinking, I had an idea. ”

At this time, no one was laughing at the directors and stars on the scene, and everyone realized that what Lin Yuquan said next must be extremely simple, because they all looked at Lin Yuquan on the stage with bated breath, even Ning Hao and Xu Jinglei were like this, Lin Yuquan had not revealed anything to them before.

"As you all know, many of our directors are facing a dilemma at the moment. Own film projects. But I couldn't find the funds to shoot. Finally raised funds to shoot, but for various reasons could not be released and DVD distribution, this phenomenon is extremely common among literary directors and young directors, literary directors are not very commercial, shooting is equal to a loss, so can only wait for the few government funding places every year, and after shooting, such films are also difficult to release. Because the theater has no money to make, and the young director is slack, it is difficult to gain the trust of investors, so he can only waste time in vain.

In response to this situation, I want to do my part, I believe everyone knows my Dawning, I am going to launch an annual micro-film plan on Dawning, and select 12 directors from the Directors Guild every year. Each of them funded 200,000 yuan to shoot a micro-film. ”

Many of them showed expressions of interest, and many of them were young directors. Suffering from the lack of funds to shoot the works they want to make, if they can get a place, it is to use the funds given by Shuguang to make a movie, even if it is a micro film!

Lin Yuquan smiled, and then said: "These 12 micro-movies will be placed in the special area of Shuguang for the majority of Internet users to watch, among which the work with the highest evaluation by netizens will get at least one million level of film investment from our Shuguang Film Company, there is no cap, according to the subject matter and script review, if your work is good enough, what is impossible to break 100 million investment!" ”

"Wow." This time, the directors below can't sit still at all, as long as the micro-film is recognized by netizens, they can get investment in the film, which is too attractive to the vast majority of directors present.

Immediately, someone couldn't wait to ask: "Director Lin, how to choose these 12 directors, and are only the micro-films shot by these 12 directors eligible for investment?" ”

Lin Yuquan glanced at the questioner with a smile, and then said: "These 12 directors will be selected from the applicants, and the specific selection principles and requirements will be announced on the official website of Shuguang Film Company and Shuguang.com, of course, other directors can also participate, but they can't get funding funds, one thing I want to make is that in addition to the micro-film directors with the highest evaluation by netizens can get investment, we will invite famous directors to form a jury, Depending on the quality and quantity of the work, at least one person will be selected to receive the investment of Shuguang Film Company, and the investment amount is also at least one million, with no upper limit, as long as your script is reviewed, you can get enough shooting funds.

And if the selected director is a young director, you can also get the director of our Shuguang Film Company as a producer for guidance, for example, if the official movie you make is an action movie, then I will be the producer, comedy, Ning Hao directs, literary films, Lao Xu, ordinary feature films, Chen Jiashang director, as for our experienced directors, it depends on your choice. ”

Shocking, absolutely shattering, such conditions couldn't be better, like a young director who was already excited and shining.

However, some people still have concerns: "Director Lin, I have joined my micro-film Tongguò and received the investment of your Shuguang Film Company, and I want to make a literary film, will I not get sufficient investment because of this?" After all, as you said, our domestic literary films all lose money. ”

"Of course not." Lin Yuquan said categorically: "We will not impose any restrictions on the director's subject matter, literature, urban romance dramas, youth inspirational dramas, comedies, thrillers, documentaries, and action movies as long as they are good works, we will shoot them, and the style and pursuit of our Shuguang Film Company has always been to do nothing, and to do the best, so even if you shoot literary films and documentaries, as long as the works are really good, we will go all out to support them."

Not only that, but the issue of the release of the film after filming must also be of concern to many people, and many people may not know that this year there will be another company under my umbrella, that company is Shuguang Cinemas, and at present, the first batch of 15 cinemas we will build will open one after another from next month, and in the next few years, we will build 15 cinemas every year, each cinema will have 8-10 cinemas, I can assure you that as long as your film is filmed and reviewed, it will be arranged for youIn the dawn of cinemas more and more theaters will be released, 15 this year, 30 next year, 45 the year after next, and in a few years, at least 100 theaters, 800 screens to show your movies. ”

Shock, indescribable shock, isn't it the problem of funding and theatrical release that plagues countless directors? Young directors have little qualifications and cannot get funds, and literary and artistic directors can only wait for the support quota of several large state-owned film studios due to the poor profitability of filmmaking, and two-thirds of the films shot every year do not get the opportunity to be released in theaters, and the filming is over.

But now it's not a problem, as long as you can get the approval of netizens or judges through the annual micro-film plan of Guò Shuguang.com, you can solve this qiē, although the difficulty can be imagined, but at least this is an invaluable opportunity for them, and as long as there is an opportunity, they are willing to work hard.

At this moment, more than half of the directors on the scene had a strong fighting spirit in their eyes.

Lin Yuquan looked at the scene with satisfaction, he did have the heart to do it, but of course he was not a saint, in addition to helping Shuguang Film Company find more excellent works, it was to further enhance the influence of Shuguang Film Company among directors, especially young directors, young directors are the masters of the future film industry, as long as they have enough influence in their hearts, then they will naturally be the first to think of cooperating with Shuguang Film Company when they have works in the future, as long as this is achieved, Then Shuguang Film Company will have an unbreakable advantage in the future.

"Okay, that's all I want to say, friends who are willing to pay attention to the information announced by Shuguang Network and Shuguang Film Company later, I recommend that you read the requirements carefully, and carefully craft when shooting micro films, this meticulous carving is not how gorgeous the scene and audio-visual effects are, but to shoot the story well, and shoot your own best style, I hope to see enough friends to participate, and I also hope to see more excellent works to win, And the most important thing is that more people will be able to realize their dreams through this micro-film project. ”

The warmest applause and shouts since the opening of the "Papapa" annual commendation conference sounded at this moment, like young directors all looked at Lin Yuquan with reverence, it was this young man who was about the same age or even younger than them brought them the hope of realizing their dreams, if they used to think that Lin Yuquan's amazing achievements made them only look up, now Lin Yuquan is their most respected idol.

Amidst applause and cheers, Lin Yuquan calmly returned to his seat.

"You guy, when did you have such an idea, and you actually hid it from us." Xu Jinglei said angrily, in fact, she has not recovered from Lin Yuquan's big strokes yet.

"I thought of it when I was chatting with Liu Hui and them in the morning and listening to the directors talk about the difficulties they encountered." Lin Yuquan chuckled.

In the whispered chat of several people, the award ceremony continued.

"The winner of the film of the year was, 'Painted Skin.'"

In the deafening applause, Lin Yuquan hugged several people and walked onto the podium again.

Looking at the figure who walked on the podium, a sentence echoed in everyone's hearts, this is the night that belongs to "Painted Skin" and the night that belongs to Lin Yuquan.

In the eyes of the director, actor and actress of the year, director of the year, and film of the year, there is no doubt that "Painted Skin" and Lin Yuquan, who won four awards alone, are the biggest winners tonight.

Coupled with Ning Hao's words as the young director of the year, the edge of Shuguang Film Company was unrivaled this night.

In addition, the CEOs of major film companies and those big directors seem to have seen the turbulent waves set off by Shuguang's annual micro-film plan in the entertainment circles of the three places, and at the same time realized a very grim and helpless reality.

The rise of Dawning Film Company has been unstoppable. (To be continued......)
