Chapter 3: Fighting the Autumn Breeze
As Shen Chong predicted, Chen Yunwen won the Best Original Screenplay Award, after she received the trophy, she did not follow the routine of the previous winners and say some official words, but took the trophy in her hand, pretended to touch it a few times, and then said: "It's a pity that this trophy is not made of gold." ”
The official color of the Golden Horse Awards is too strong, more solemn, not enough entertainment, the host, the award presenters and the award recipients are quite restrained, there are no waves, and it is only at this time that there is the first laughter of the audience.
"If it's a ...... made of gold," Chen Yunwen dragged out his voice, pointed to the place where Shen Chong was sitting, and continued: "I believe that Shen Caishen will definitely come to the stage to grab this trophy with me." ”
There was a burst of laughter from the audience, and Shen Chong smiled and waved at the turned camera lens.
"In short, if I can win this award, Shen Caishen has at least half of the credit." Chen Yunwen raised the trophy and said: "In order to express my gratitude, I will advertise him here for free - everyone, Shen Caishen is very rich, and he is very good at spending money, if you have any good movies you want to make in the future, you will go to Oriental Charm to find him, yes." ”
The audience burst into applause.
Shen Chong cooperated with her, stood up very appropriately, turned to the back row, and bowed his hand, attracting a flash of light.
"Sister Yunwen is crazy personally." When he sat down again, Zhang Aijia complained: "Why are you crazy." ”
"The award ceremony of a film awards, if it is too strict, it will not be fun."
"People don't think so." Zhang Aijia said: "Tomorrow in the newspaper, you will definitely be scolded for ruining the atmosphere of the Golden Horse Awards." ”
"Let them say go." Shen Chong didn't care, and laughed at himself: "Anyway, when I entered the door just now, after making a fuss, this hat is definitely worn, it is better to wear it tighter, so as not to be blown away by the wind." ”
Seeing that Zhang Aijia's face was gloomy, he said again: "It's okay, you Director Song specially found a comedy star like Jiang Guang as the host, you must like this atmosphere, lively and festive, maybe he will say hello, tomorrow the newspaper will be full of articles praising merit." ”
"Pure nonsense." Zhang Aijia tilted her head sideways, approached him, and said in a stern tone: "Recently, there have been rumors that you are a spy of the Big 6, you should keep a low profile and don't cause trouble." ”
"Oh?" Shen Chong was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "In this world, how can there be such a high-profile spy as me?" You're thinking too much. ”
……
Chen Yunwen's acceptance speech was the most personalized scene at the award ceremony, and then it returned to a step-by-step routine.
Shen Chong came to participate in the Golden Horse Awards, mainly to observe the organization and preparation of the award ceremony and the TV broadcast at close range, and to prepare for next year's Academy Awards, and he had already known the list of winners in advance, so he didn't pay much attention to the awards, but more to observe various details.
There is no red carpet, no live broadcast, lack of interaction with the media, the stage layout is too rustic, and the confidentiality of the award list is too poor......
Hong Kong lacks large and magnificent indoor venues, a lack of professional live TV broadcast teams, and a lack of professional stage set designers......
Shen Chong observed while planning how to improve in his heart.
It wasn't until Zhang Aijia came to the stage to accept the Best Actress Award that he restrained his thoughts about wandering in the world.
Zhang Aijia is not a fledgling newcomer, and Shen Chong leaked the news in advance, so after she took the stage, she took the trophy very naturally and elegantly, and began to speak: "First of all, thank the organizing committee for awarding this award to me." To receive this award, I would like to thank one person first. ”
Hu Yinmeng was on the side and asked, "Is it Mr. Shen?" ”
"It's not." Zhang Aijia smiled and said: "It's director Hu Jinquan, if he hadn't been in the show for many days in order to wait for a shot, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to go to Hong Kong to play, and I wouldn't have been able to shoot this "Crazy Robbery". ”
Hu Jinquan's filming efficiency is low, everyone in Hong Kong and Taiwan knows it, Zhang Aijia's ridicule is not funny, but the audience laughed everywhere.
"Then don't you thank Mr. Shen?" After Hu Yinmeng waited for silence, he asked: "After all, without his investment, the movie would not have been made." ”
"Of course, I want to be thankful." Zhang Aijia brushed it over and said: "I also want to thank Director Xu Anhua, Sister Yunwen's script, and all the staff of the crew of "Crazy Robbery". ”
"Miss Zhang, you are the general manager of Oriental Charm Taiwan Branch." Another host, Jiang Guang, pointed to the audience, then pointed to himself, and said: "According to what Miss Chen Yunwen just said, if we Taiwanese want to make movies in the future, do we just need to find you?" ”
"You can't look for me." Zhang Aijia immediately denied it and said: "If you want to make a movie, you have to find Director Song, if he doesn't approve it, you can't make any movies." ”
Song Chuyu is the leader of Taiwan's film industry, with a high position, and he is sitting at the scene at this time, as soon as Zhang Aijia's voice fell, the auditorium immediately resounded with warm applause, Shen Chong applauded, admiring Zhang Aijia's intelligence in his heart - these two hosts seem to be deliberately creating scandals for them.
The world-class tycoon fell in love with the granddaughter of a high-ranking Taiwanese official...... This news is exciting enough, especially for the mainland.
Sure enough, it's the Golden Horse Awards, and it's full of politics.
Zhang Aijia didn't give the two hosts a chance to continue to ask, she raised the trophy, and in the applause, Shi Shiran walked off the stage.
……
When Elizabeth Taylor appeared in the finale of the Golden Horse Awards and presented the Best Film Award for "A Small Town Story", a middle-aged man in a suit came to Shen Chong with a cat on his waist and said, "Mr. Shen, the award ceremony is almost over, please follow me." ”
"I'll go back to the hotel first, and you can call them over later."
Zhang Aijia nodded and said, "You go quickly, otherwise you will be blocked again in a while." ”
The man took Shen Chong out of the auditorium from the small door, and after coming to the parking lot, he made a gesture of please and said, "Mr. Shen, someone wants to see you." ”
At this time, a black sedan not far away rolled down the window, revealing Wei Jingmeng's face, and he beckoned and said, "Xiao Shen, come here." ”
"Wei Lao." Shen Chong got into the car, closed the door, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
"I'll take a look." Wei Jingmeng said: "Jia Jia won the Golden Horse Award, and I, as a grandfather, should also come to support it." ”
"Why don't you give me a notice, I'll pick you up in advance."
"I have my own car." Wei Jingmeng laughed twice, and after staring at Shen Chong for a while, he asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Shen, the president wants to see you." ”
When Shen Chong heard this, he was taken aback and asked, "Now?" ”
"It's too late, the president is already resting." Wei Jingmeng said: "Tomorrow, at two o'clock in the afternoon, I will pick you up, you prepare well." ”
Shen Chong has traveled so far, and he has seen a lot of legendary figures, and he has already developed a pampered and humiliated mentality, and he is not too excited about Jiang Jingguo's summons.
"Old Wei, what kind of things should I prepare?"
"Economy." Wei Jingmeng was concise, paused for a while, and said: "Xiao Shen, you got up too fast, the foundation is unstable, don't take the money too seriously, sometimes, the money that should be spent, you have to spend it." ”
"That's what Wei Lao said." Shen Chong comprehended and asked, "Old Wei, how much do you think I should spend, and where should I spend it?" ”
"Your uncle Zhao Anping donated 1ooo million Hong Kong dollars in Big 6, and you also donated 1ooo million, where to donate, I will sue you in the future."
If you want to meet the source on both sides of the strait, it is impossible not to pay the price, Shen Chong has long been mentally prepared to be beaten by others, so he responded and said: "No problem." ”
Wei Jingmeng was very satisfied with Shen Chong's statement, he nodded approvingly, and then said: "The third son of the Jiang family, he is very interested in doing business, when he is free, I will introduce you to you, you young people, communicate more and grow together." ”
Shen Chong hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Old Wei." ”
Wei Jingmeng waved his hand and said in a somewhat desolate tone: "I'm old and have no son, Jiajia has no father since she was a child, and in the future, you will take care of their mother and daughter." ”
"Don't worry, Elder Wei, I will."
After Wei Jingmeng's car was gone, Shen Chong smiled slightly, then turned around and walked towards his car.
1ooo Hong Kong dollars, equivalent to more than 2oo US dollars, is really nothing to Shen Chong, gold is rising every day, and in a week, you can make up for more than 2oo yuan.
Of all Shen Chong's donations in the mainland, only the 1oo0,000 yuan to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles was made public in the name of his uncle, and it was listed in the "People's Daily" -- the Federation of Literary and Art Circles is a government agency, and its office building and artist dormitory building are absolutely impossible to set up a donation sign or let Shen Chong name it......
And the rest of the donations, all are secret, because there is no need, such a facility like a university library, a sign to say that so-and-so donation, is a kind of elegant thing, there is no resistance, or even a brand does not need a tree, Shen Chong just needs to think of a good name, and then build a library of the same name in universities across the country, and everyone will know that he donated it at that time.
For example, CCTV's color TV center, which has not even decided where to build the building, has not yet been decided, and with the economic situation in the mainland, this center cannot be built at all in three or five years, and after three or five years, 5oo US dollars is a drop in the bucket for Shen Chong.
Therefore, Shen Chong seems to be throwing a lot of money in the mainland, but what he really pays out is only one or two million Hong Kong dollars upfront expenses -- disaster relief donations are urgent, and if you donate, you can donate money to build a building, what is the urgency?
Building a building, you need to choose a site, you need to design a drawing, you need to select a construction team, you need to plan the construction plan, there is no preparation for a year and a half, you can't open it, so long time, so many procedures, as long as you are stuck with the money, step by step to give money, even if it is just a formality, signing, the accumulated favors and connections, it will be considerable.
If you donate, you will donate, and scattering the money at one time is equivalent to taking your own money and making wedding dresses for others.
After donating in the mainland, Shen Chong was ready to donate again in Taiwan.
There are only two things that will be most important for China in the coming decades: reform and opening up, and the Taiwan issue.
Reform and opening up are intertwined, interests are entangled, and if you participate too much, there will be unpredictable political risks.
This is not the case with the Taiwan issue, where the reunification of the motherland is the desire of the people, and there is no political risk at all, but it can gain tremendous prestige and goodwill from the entire Chinese circle.
Shen Chong does not arrogantly think that he can solve the Taiwan issue, but if he can brush up enough prestige, in the 8o years when the two sides of the strait are strictly opposed, he can transmit information in the center in his private capacity, which will greatly increase his influence in the mainland and have more bargaining chips to integrate the film industry in the three places on both sides of the strait.
Shen Chong only indirectly owns a toy factory in the mainland, and in Taiwan, whether it is a magazine or a film branch, it is a small investment, and there is no too deep interest relationship between the two sides of the strait.
Prestige, just throw money hard, so now that someone comes to fight the autumn wind, he can't ask for it.
There are side effects when the autumn wind blows too much......
