Chapter 193. Smiling Proud Golden Statue
However, good luck seems to be still to come, with "The True Story of A Fei" getting the best editing, the best cinematography was also won by Du Kefeng from the same crew, and then Hung Jinbao of the Hong family class won the best action design for "Five Lucky Stars". $(). (23) (w) (x).) Yuan Jiaban, who competed with him, and Yuan Baye, fell into the sand.
Speaking of the eighth master Yuan Heping, this person is the most popular one in the low-key "Yuan family class", but there is always a reason for him to show up, Yuan Xiangren acted really well in front of the camera, whether it is a beggar with both form and spirit, a drunkard, or a ghost and a horse. The audience is more familiar with the old beggar who sold to Ah Xing in "Kung Fu" and the beggar who taught Suhazar in "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qier". In addition, his screenwriting and performance of "Qimen Dunjia" is quite influential among some fans.
At this time, he won three Academy Awards in one go, and the actor entertainment was in the limelight for a while.
However, the next Best Music nominated by Best Actor Entertainment lost to "Listening to Politics".
This Qing court drama created by the great director Li Hanxiang has shaped the legendary story of the Empress Dowager Cixi in the late Qing Dynasty with a shocking historical background. The music production is extremely sophisticated, and the best music is recognized.
However, the power of "Listening to Politics" seems to be limited to these places, and then it has a chance to compete again for the prestigious award of best screenplay.
The best screenplay nominees include "The True Story of A Fei", "Listening to Politics with the Curtain", and "Seven Days of Wrong Love".
In order to show that the gold content of this award is very high, the award was presented to the famous Hong Kong director Chu Yuan.
This person is also an evergreen tree in the Hong Kong film industry, an old naughty boy, known as acting to madness, and filming to softness.
At this moment, I saw the old naughty boy Chu Yuan standing on the podium, taking the envelope and looking at it, and finally said, "Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity." Let me present such an important award, and let me read the list of nominees first...... The nominees for Best Screenplay at this year's Academy Awards are, "Listening to Politics with a Curtain", Zhang Jianting in "Seven Days of Wrongness", and Duan Zihao in "The True Story of A Fei" ......"
As he chanted, the lights shifted from time to time to hit the nominee.
The situation seems tense.
When reading Duan Zihao, most of the people who knew him in the venue turned their eyes over, and Zhang Guirong and Liu Dehua stared at him with a smile and a smile: "Ah Hao, now it's finally your turn." Get excited! ”
"It's alright!" Duan Zihao said it, but he was really nervous in his heart. After all, this is his first award, and I don't know if I can get it.
Rushing music played in the background, and several plays nominated for Best Screenplay staged the flowers.
Many people who have watched these dramas smile from the bottom of their hearts, maybe for them, everyone has their own Academy Award in their hearts, no matter what others do, as long as they like it, it's OK.
"Alright. With the music stopping, the truly exciting time arrives! Chu Yuan said with a smile.
"Everyone must be looking forward to who will win the best screenwriter this year, who can laugh at Hong Kong to become this year's gold medal screenwriter and the saint of the film industry! I announce the list. He's ......"
Duan Zihaobo, who was already a little nervous, became even more nervous with Chu Yuan's words, and he suddenly found that he was originally in a good state of mind, but today he was slightly "perverted".
But Chu Yuan is really an old naughty boy. He was supposed to announce the results, but suddenly changed his words and said, "These are all masters...... It's not easy to make up a story. It's not easy to write a story that is exciting! ”
"I've also been a screenwriter, and I know the hard work and hardships in it, especially when you can't think of a bridge, it will make you feel depressed and want to commit suicide!"
"So, I admire these people who write the perfect story, and I admire their talent and courage! I admire their spirit of unremitting struggle! ”
Everyone was defeated by Chu Yuan's "verbosity", and he was waiting to announce the results, but he sighed to himself here.
But after sighing, Chu Yuan continued: "Okay, I won't talk nonsense, I will immediately open the envelope and announce the results of this year's Best Screenwriter......"
"The winner of the Best Screenplay at the 4th Hong Kong Film Awards is ......" The old naughty boy Chu Yuan's grinning appearance was really unreliable, and he deliberately lengthened his voice and said: ""The True Story of A Fei, Duan-Zi-Hao!" ”
When the words landed, there was a bang, and the applause around Duan Zihao thundered. Many people are very appreciative of him, after all, all the stories written by him are not popular, and the box office is more than 10 million, so it is deserved to win the best screenplay.
Looking at the gazes around him, as well as the applause that kept beating his eardrums like waves, Duan Zihao was convinced that he really won the best screenwriter at this Hong Kong Film Awards!
After Duan Zihao won this award, the friends of the crew members of "The True Story of A Fei" came to congratulate one after another, including Zhang Guirong and Andy Lau.
These two people are the biggest beneficiaries of this movie, not to mention Andy Lau, he is a good friend of Duan Zihao, and he is a newcomer to Actor Entertainment, so he is very content that he can participate in this ceremony. But it's different for Zhang Guirong, so this "The True Story of A Fei" has changed the fate of him and Duan Zihao, and now Duan Zihao has won the best screenplay with this play, can he not be happy for him?
So, in the midst of everyone's congratulations, Duan Zihao was honored to win the first important film award in his life - the Academy Award, the Best Screenplay Award.
When accepting the award, the old naughty boy Chu Yuan didn't forget to joke with him: "Hello, dear screenwriter, when will I write a script for the old man, I am not old, and I can act very well!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed.
Duan Zihao took the trophy, then came to the stage and began to give an acceptance speech.
"As a newcomer to film, I was able to receive this award, which is an affirmation of my hard work, and I am very proud and proud. At this happy moment, what I want to thank the most is the wireless artist training class, in which I learned a lot, in addition to acting, that is, if you want to be a good screenwriter! ”
"Looking at today's Hong Kong screenwriters, their living conditions and conditions are not very good, and many screenwriters can't even take care of food and clothing. To this end, I hope that our Hong Kong film industry can set up a screenwriters association, and strive to discover and support those new screenwriters, so that Hong Kong films can have better scripts, so that Hong Kong audiences can see more wonderful plays, for this reason, I will give 1 million to support this association! ”
With a bang, everyone's ears were buzzing by Duan Zihao's move.
You must know that screenwriters in Hong Kong are really not taken seriously, although there is an award for Best Screenplay at the Academy Awards. However, this is basically for those elites, and ordinary young screenwriters are not qualified to compete at all. More screenwriters are still struggling to make ends meet, if it is really as Duan Zihao said, the establishment of a screenwriters association to support screenwriter talents, it is definitely a big move that is beneficial to Hong Kong films.
Therefore, after Duan Zihao finished speaking, there was warm applause, especially those screenwriters. It's almost a slap in the face.
……
As the Academy Awards ceremony continues, many awards continue to be awarded. But soon another high dynasty will come, that is, the two awards of Best Actor and Best Actress at this year's Hong Kong Film Awards.
It can be said that the competition for the leading actor this time is very fierce, especially Leung Jiahui of "Listening to Politics with the Curtain" and Zhang Guirong of "The True Story of A Fei" are the favorites to win the award.
But Duan Zihao knew. The final actor of this session is - Leung Jiahui.
As expected, after the award presenters announced the list of winners, Leung Ka-fai, the youngest actor at the Academy Awards, relied on his first film. I won this honor.
His success directly made many people envious, jealous and hateful, including Zhang Guirong, who had the most fierce competition with him.
saw Zhang Guirong who looked lonely and frustrated. Duan Zihao had no choice but to gently pat him on the shoulder, which was considered a comfort to him.
Zhang Guirong reluctantly smiled, to be honest, this time he was full of confidence, who knew that the result would be like this.
On the podium, Leung Jiahui, as a new actor, was very excited, he took the trophy and said in a nervous tone: "First of all, I want to thank Director Li Hanxiang, he not only discovered me and gave me the opportunity to enter the film industry, but also taught me what an artist should do with his own diligence and hard work." He is not only my guide to enter the industry, but also my mentor on the road of life. This award is first of all the result of your earnest teaching, thank you, Director Li, in my heart, you are my eternal mentor. Leung Ka-fai said this, holding up the award statue to salute the direction of Li Hanxiang.
Everyone knows that Leung Jiahui was discovered by the great director Li Hanxiang, and they also know that Li Hanxiang values him very much, and the two are not only the relationship between the director and the actor, but also the relationship between master and apprentice. Especially in the future, Leung Jiahui was banned because of this drama and had to set up a stall, Li Hanxiang helped him behind his back, and asked him to find someone to let him return to the film industry, and when Li Hanxiang raised funds for his movies in the last few years, Leung Jiahui, who had become a big star, helped him even more.
At this moment, Li Hanxiang, who was sitting in the seat, was also excited, and while accepting the congratulations of the people around him, he was immersed in the pride and joy of seeing his apprentice's success.
The scene of the drama surname has passed, and the awards have come to an end, among which the award for Best Actress was won by Ye Tong in "Seven Days of Wrong Love".
However, there is gossip that this award was originally intended to be awarded to Liu Xiaoqing, the heroine of "Listening to Politics", but she is not from Hong Kong, and the purpose of the Hong Kong Film Awards is to encourage local filmmakers and encourage the development of local films, so Liu Xiaoqing lost the qualification to be nominated, and Ye Tong, as the second contestant, was lucky to win the crown of this actress.
As one of the shareholders of New Art City, the bald Mai Jia personally presented the award to Ye Tong.
At the time of the award, Ye Tong said: "Thank you, Brother Mai Jia, you will always be my idol." I will continue to work hard in the future. ”
Mai Jia touched his bald head and responded: "Am I an idol?" I never think that my image has the temperament of an idol, except for this bald head, I am a powerful person all over me! This caused everyone to laugh.
After the Best Actress and other awards, the next thing to be awarded is the Best Director with a higher gold content!
That's right, it's the glittering Best Director award, and everyone is holding their breath, waiting for the host and award presenters to announce the results of this heavyweight award.
The guest presenting this award is definitely the top name in Hong Kong, that is Zou Wenhuai, the boss of Golden Harvest!
As an epoch-making superboss, he didn't talk much, and after simply announcing the list of nominees as soon as he came to the stage, he solemnly opened the result envelope.
"Now, I announce that the winner of the Best Director at the 4th Hong Kong Film Awards is ...... Duan Zihao of "The True Story of A Fei"!"
There was an uproar, and the whole audience exploded.
No one could have imagined that Duan Zihao would score twice and win the Best Director award again.
And Li Hanxiang, who won the award, smiled, although his expression was a little lost, but he was the first to applaud, in his opinion, there are successors to Hong Kong films, which is better than anything else.
Duan Zihao was also surprised, in his opinion, this award should be given to Li Hanxiang anyway. Whether it is qualifications or qualifications, it should be him.
But the result is ......
Duan Zihao stood up with some surprise and walked onto the stage amid applause.
"Here I would like to thank all the members of the crew of "The True Story of A Fei". I think that I can win this award, which is also a compliment to our entire crew, because a good movie is always the product of a teamwork, and it cannot be the credit of one person. Therefore, this award should belong to all of us. Duan Zihao said very sincerely, and won another round of applause at the scene.
Next, Duan Zihao took the trouble to express his gratitude to Wong Kar-wai, Christopher Doy, Liu Dehua, Maggie Cheung and others one by one.
Everyone thought it was strange at first, but soon found out that Duan Zihao seemed to have forgotten one person, it was Zhang Guirong, the brother of the frustrated actor laurel!
You must know that the reason why this play is so successful is that Zhang Guirong's performance in the play is indispensable, and he also lowered his salary to participate, it can be said that it is enough to be friends and do this part. It is precisely because of Zhang Guirong's joining that this drama will be a success.
Zhang Guirong didn't care about Duan Zihao's failure to thank himself, because he and Duan Zihao were close friends.
After the others noticed this situation, they were different, and they were very curious, and they didn't know what Duan Zihao wanted to do.
For a while, the guests at the scene whispered.
And Duan Zihao seems to be familiar with this situation, just thanking himself for every insignificant ordinary staff member in the crew, but he doesn't mention Zhang Guirong's name.
When Duan Zihao's thanks finally came to an end, the scene fell silent all of a sudden, waiting to see how Duan Zihao was going to finish.
Duan Zihao took the microphone and smiled lightly, and said: "Every member of the crew is my friend and my teacher, and they are all indispensable to being recognized by the Academy Awards Organizing Committee with this play." ”
Duan Zihao continued: "But when it comes to the person who has helped me the most, that is, the person who has the most direct impact on the success or failure of my play, I have to count my best friend, that is, Leslie, who is sitting below and watching me at the moment - Zhang Guirong!"
A sudden change suddenly caused a commotion on the scene.
"I don't know what to say to him now, I just want to say that I've always seen him as my best friend, my partner, my confidant. Therefore, when I chose to shoot "The True Story of A Fei", the first person I thought of was him. Except for him, no one can interpret the image of Ah Fei, the male protagonist in the play, and no one can replace him to play this role. ”
"It can be said that Ah Rong is the person I am most grateful for, he not only has superb acting skills, but also has a lot of vision - you see, didn't this play win an award? So now I want to say, Ah Rong, don't worry, even if you don't win the best actor, in my mind, you will always be the best actor in my mind! ”
Zhang Guirong smiled, very happily.
Everyone else laughed.
Duan Zihao's sincere speech completely broke the solemnity before. The whole award ceremony became more lively.
(Thank you Sihuo for tipping 100 starting coins, thank you!) (To be continued......)
