Lin Yuquan won the Best Actor, but Ning Hao lost in the competition for Best Director and Best Feature Film, both of which lost to Zhou Xingchi and his "Kung Fu", at this year's Golden Horse Awards, Zhou Xingchi is definitely the biggest winner, "Kung Fu" was shortlisted for 10 nominations, and won 5 of the awards, which can be described as extremely beautiful.

However, Ning Hao did not have any disappointment in this, as he said, not to mention that the Golden Horse Awards focus on encouraging the creation of films with strong artistic colors, heavyweight awards such as Best Feature Film and Best Director are very particular about the director's qualifications, and the director's qualifications are insufficient, and it is almost impossible to win the award.

This is different from actors, who are young, but have superb acting skills, which is an advantage. Just like Li Xiaolu, she was only 16 years old when she won the actress with "Sky Bath" in 98, Xia Yu was only 20 years old when she won the Golden Horse Best Actor in 1996 with "Sunny Days", and Liu Ye was only 23 years old when she won the Golden Horse Best Actor with "Lan Yu" in 2001, and not only the Golden Horse Awards, such situations are common all over the world.

Lin Yuquan himself knows this, and the reason why he was not nominated for Best Director and Best Feature Film at this year's Golden Horse Awards is also due to this seniority, because it is the first time to direct a movie, which invisibly makes the judges prejudiced against him.

This is something that can't be solved, but after the release of "Red Cliff", the situation will be different, and when he competes for the Golden Horse Awards next year, he will no longer compete for the award as a rookie, but as a famous director.

And although the Golden Horse Awards used to be very inclined to films with strong artistic colors, but with the popularity of commercial films, this situation is also changing, before 2000, the heavyweight awards of the Golden Horse Awards rarely gave commercial films, but since 2000. This is very frequent, with the best film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in 2000, the best film "Infernal Affairs" in 2003, the best directors Mak Zhaohui and Liu Weiqiang, the best director Du Qifeng in 2004, and this year's Chow Xingchi and "Kung Fu". Therefore, as long as "Red Cliff" can achieve good results, it is not impossible for him to win the best director at the Golden Horse Awards.

The award ceremony ended on time. Lin Yuquan and others did not leave to celebrate immediately, because the Golden Horse Awards official will hold a "farewell reception" after the award ceremony, and many winners, including award presenters, are present to celebrate the award-winning peers.

"Director Lin, at this Golden Horse Awards, you have won a total of three awards. The number of awards is second only to Xingye, how do you feel about this? In an interview with the media, a reporter asked.

"I think I've said enough about this when I gave my speech at the awards ceremony, and of course, since you're asking now, I'll answer you again, I'm very happy to win these awards, but I hope to win Best Director or Best Feature Film in the future, because I'm a director first. The second is the actor and martial arts instructor. Lin Yuquan smiled.

"Director Lin, I'm from the Southeast Times, December 1. Your movie "Red Cliff" will be released, what are your expectations for the box office of this movie? A reporter with glasses asked,

"I am personally very satisfied with the movie "Red Cliff", and I believe that its box office will not be bad, as for the specific box office, fans and audiences will naturally give us this answer at that time." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

After the interview, Lin Yuquan immediately entered the reception.

"Hello, Director Lin. Congratulations on winning three awards, Best New Actor and Best Actor at the Golden Horse Awards. You're the first? ”

Lin Yuquan had just picked up a glass of champagne, and he hadn't yet gone to find someone else to get to know him. Someone else has already come to the door.

"Tongxi, didn't you also get the actress?" Lin Yuquan smiled and looked at Shu Qi in front of her, who was wearing an orange low-cut evening dress, showing her hot body, this actress who became famous with tertiary films in one fell swoop has been popular all over the Taiwan Strait and three places in recent years, and she received a soft hand, but such a way of becoming famous also made her bear a very heavy price and become an indelible stain in her life, after all, the Chinese people's concept of women's chastity is deep-rooted, and he himself didn't like this kind of behavior before, but now as a director, he will not use such a concept to evaluate an actor's ethical behavior. Because the actor's appearance in film and television dramas is completely different from herself.

Touching his glass with Shu Qi, he continued: "Actually, the first one is not a great achievement, after all, this is only the sixth year of the Golden Horse Award for Best New Actor, and there are still many days to come?" And if it weren't for the fact that there was no such award before, Xia Yu would have won it long ago. ”

"Hehe, Director Lin is modest, this is not so easy, even if you count Xia Yu, it will only be one for several years, unlike me, the best actress, there will be one every year." Shu Qijiao said with a smile.

"But it's not a year to be as beautiful as you." Lin Yuquan chuckled.

"Sure enough, everyone who is a director is very eloquent." Shu Qi smiled, obviously she was in a very good mood.

"I'm just telling the truth." Lin Yuquan said casually, chatted with Shu Qi for a few words, and saw a figure flashing in front of him, he hurriedly said sorry to Shu Qi and chased after him.

"Hello, Director Li Yu."

Li Yu stopped, his eyes stayed on the other party's face, and a strong smile suddenly bloomed on his face: "Ah, it's Director Lin, it's a pleasure to meet you, congratulations on winning the award, the speech you just made is very exciting."

"Thank you, and congratulations on winning the Golden Lion Award for Best Film at this year's Venice Film Festival, I didn't expect the Executive Committee of the Golden Horse Awards to invite you as a guest of honor, it's so unexpected, but unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to accept your award just now." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Haha, you are still young, and with your directing ability, I believe that it is only a matter of time before you win the Golden Horse Award for Best Director, in fact, I would prefer to see you at the Oscars earlier, how about it? Are you interested in making movies in Hollywood? Li Yu said heartily, in fact, as long as he is free, he will definitely attend the Golden Horse Awards every year to support, this time he is his partner Takeshi Kaneshiro as a guest to present the Best Director Award.

For Lin Yuquan, a newly rising new generation of directors. Although he is in Hollywood, he is no stranger to Lin Yuquan at all, even compared to those who stay in the Chinese film industry. He is more aware of Lin Yuquan's current influence in North America, so he is very optimistic about his development in Hollywood.

"I lend you a good word. I also hope that day will come soon, as for coming to Hollywood to make a movie, I don't have this plan for the time being, at least not for nearly a year, and when the time comes, I will definitely come to the world's biggest stage to break through. Lin Yuquan said slowly.

"You're very popular in North America right now, and if I were you, I'd do my best to go to North America to develop it. Take advantage of the popularity and get off to a good start, otherwise it will be more difficult when the popularity dissipates. Although Lin Yuquan belongs to the mainland and he is Taiwanese, he is also Chinese, and he still hopes that Lin Yuquan can achieve good development in North America, and the glory of the Chinese needs more directors to stand up.

From Pepsi's sky-high endorsement, Lin Yuquan knew his good influence in North America, and later learned about the situation through Chen Shijun of Guòbe. But as he just said to Li Yan, he doesn't have any idea of this at the moment, and his next movie will start filming in the next year. It's true that I don't have this time to go to Hollywood to make movies in a short period of time, and who can say for sure what will happen in the future? It depends on the situation, maybe next year, maybe the year after that, it will be a matter of time after all.

"Thank you Director Li, I will consider it, but it will definitely not work next year, I already have specific arrangements." Lin Yuquan shook his head, but still said gratefully. Anyway, others are sincere: "Director Li." Your "Brokeback Mountain" is about to be released, and the next step is to stay in North America to make movies. Or do you want to come back and make Chinese-language movies? ”

"For the time being, I'm just thinking about it, and I won't have time and energy until the dust settles on "Brokeback Mountain", and we as directors can only rest assured at that time, only by reassuring can we calm down, and only by meditating can we shoot movies that we are satisfied with. As for whether I will come back to make movies, of course, I don't rule out this possibility, but the premise is that I want to find the subject matter that I like, in fact, as long as I want to shoot, it will be the same wherever I shoot. Li Yu said slowly, the release of "Brokeback Mountain" is very important to him, and now he naturally does not have the heart to consider a new movie.

"Oh, then if Director Li wants to make Chinese films in the future, you might as well consider our Shuguang Film Company, what our company lacks most now is a good director like you, I am also a director, so I know what directors need most to create good works, in this regard, I will do my best to support, I believe that we will definitely work together very happily at that time." Lin Yuquan has the heart to woo him, and what Shuguang Film Company lacks now is not funds, but good directors and good movie scripts.

"Of course, I would like to cooperate with you if I have the chance." Li Yu did not refuse, nor did he agree.

In fact, he is not short of investment at all now, and with his fame, it is not difficult to attract investment. And there is no shortage of good partners around him, such as James Lee, who has collaborated with him on all films since the 90s and served as a filmmaker. Shams, the other party is now a senior manager of Focus Films, although Focus Films was only established last year, but this film company is backed by Universal Pictures and has strong strength, and his upcoming "Brokeback Mountain" is invested by the other party. In addition, Jiang Zhiqiang, who helped him get investment from Sony and helped distribute "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", is also Zhang Yi's partner, "Hero", "Ambush on All Sides", and the upcoming "Riding Alone for a Thousand Miles" are all distributed by him.

Because of the existence of these two people, even if he needs to invest, he will consider these two people as soon as possible, unless neither of them is willing to invest, and at that time, it may be good to cooperate with Lin Yuquan, a young director he admires and is optimistic about, which is why he neither agreed nor refused.

Although Lin Yuquan is not clear about the details, he understands that the director has reached the level of Li Yu, as long as he does not purely pursue artistic films and does not think about making money for investors at all, investment is no longer the biggest problem.

"Hopefully that day won't be too far away, and I can't wait to work with you now." Lin Yuquan smiled and said: "Next, my "Red Cliff" and Director Li's "Brokeback Mountain" will be released in North America. ”

"Can't compare, can't compare, my "Brokeback Mountain" is just a literary film, and your "Red Cliff" is now attracting attention in North America!" Li Yu shook his head and smiled.

"Director Li, you are too modest, if it is a Chinese-language film industry, it is indeed difficult for literary films to fight for commercial films, but the literary film market in North America is not the same as our Chinese-speaking circle, and it will soon be the turn of the Golden Globe Awards and Oscars, if Director Li, your film is nominated for an Oscar, then the box office is terrible, don't they all say that the Oscar nomination for Best Picture = $30 million at the box office? As long as the list of Oscar nominees is announced on January 31, the major film companies will definitely re-launch their shortlisted films and launch a vigorous second round of releases, and then there will be enough time to increase the box office from January 31 to March 5. Since "Red Cliff" is also applying for the Oscar, Lin Yuquan is concerned about the Oscar situation and is very clear about it.

"You're right, but you have to be shortlisted!" Li Yu smiled happily.

"Winning the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival is enough to prove the excellence of "Brokeback Mountain", and recently, even China has been hyping up the sensation caused by the taboo theme of "Brokeback Mountain" in North America, presumably the Oscar academic judges will not be able to see it." Lin Yuquan smiled, and then, he exchanged film creation experience with Li Yu, and then left satisfied.

It is a pity that Lin Yuquan did not seem to expect to win a big victory at the Golden Horse Awards, so Xing Ye was absent from this award ceremony, he has been fascinated by Xing Ye for a long time, and he could have met Xing Ye when he was filming at Chedun Film and Television Base last time, but due to the avoidance of Huang Shengyi, he failed to make the trip in the end.

As a new generation of directors who are now popular and the second biggest winner at tonight's Golden Horse Awards, Lin Yuquan naturally has no shortage of stars from all walks of life to congratulate, Chen Kun , Fan Wenfang , Yang Caini , Huang Qiusheng , Lin Xilei , Fang Zhongxin , Jay Chou , Hou Peishui In fact, everyone is familiar with each other, the showbiz is a circle, big and big, small and small, maybe one day Lin Yuquan's movie or the film and television drama invested and filmed by Shuguang Film Company has a suitable role, and the familiar face can come in handy, and there is a chance to cooperate.

"Director Lin, it looks like he's busy!" Xu Ke and his wife walked over with a smile on their faces.

"Director Xu, aren't you also busy? Anyway, who of the directors at our reception is not busy? Lin Yuquan smiled slightly.

Xu Ke glanced at Li Yu and Hou Xiaoxian, who were surrounded by a group of handsome guys and beauties not far away, and laughed: "That's why everyone wants to be a director!" (To be continued) R580
