Late autumn, Taipei.

There are eleven members of the executive committee of this year's Golden Horse Awards, which just fill the long table, five on the left and five on the right, and Chairman Wang Xiaoxiang sits at the head.

The executive committee members include Taiwan's senior filmmakers, media workers and cultural professionals, and are responsible for setting up promotional posters, registration conditions, event procedures, and special awards. As for the specific film selection, that's the jury's business.

At this moment, everyone has two documents in front of them, which are the topics of today's discussion.

"Everyone!"

Wang Xiaoxiang glanced around and said, "I've seen it all, what do you think?" ”

"The first one I think is very simple, Zhou Xingchi sent a dubbed version, which obviously does not meet the regulations. I mention that he will be disqualified from being shortlisted for Best Director and Best Actor. Li Tian was the first to speak.

"Wouldn't that be controversial? After all, "Shaolin Football" is the most popular movie this year, and the films in this year's competition are not heavy enough, so push him out ......," Chen Kunhou worried.

Liao Qingsong immediately retorted: "What year did we have no disputes? You can't ignore the rules in order to attract big stars, then the controversy will be even greater. ”

Zhou Xingxing's "Shaolin Football" is the Chinese version of Shi Banyu's dubbing, which violates the actors' performance from expressions, movements, and dialogues are an overall selection standard, and the terms are written in black and white, and no one complains.

It's just that this situation has never happened before, and the influence of the parties is very high, so they are used to discuss it.

After Liao Qingsong finished speaking, the others nodded in unison, the Golden Horse Award is so far-reaching, of course, it has its own insistence, and deliberately opens the back door in order to tie up the big coffee, which is purely looking for spray.

"Let's vote and agree to the delisting by a show of hands." Wang Xiaoxiang looked left and right and said in a deep voice.

The words fell, and the other nine executive committee members raised their hands without hesitation. Chen Kunhou hesitated for a moment and seconded the proposal.

"Okay, then I now announce that I will cancel Zhou Xingchi's two nomination applications and retain the qualification for the film technical awards." He stroked the tip of his pen and said: "Rie Miyazawa of "Garden Dream" is the same, and the nomination for Best Actress has also been cancelled. ”

After Wang Xiaoxiang finished speaking, he removed the first document, revealing the paper below, and glanced at it slightly. He sighed secretly. The members of the executive committee were not as active as Fang Cai, and they all sat silently.

What a big problem! It's sad to look at the name on the paper.

The room had been frozen for a long time, and no one had even taken a sip of tea, not deliberately avoiding it, but really not thinking about what to do.

"Well, I think it's better to think in terms of simplicity."

Gui Yalei, who is still graceful and graceful at nearly sixty years old, suddenly raised her head and said: "Since it is a good movie, we, as filmmakers, should give it the respect and status that matches it." ”

"Sister Yalei. We all know what you said, but this, if you are not careful, it is easy to escalate from a cultural incident to a political incident, who can afford to bear the responsibility? Zhuang Shu sighed.

"But. But ......" Gui Yalei opened her mouth, but didn't say anything after all.

The Golden Horse Awards were founded in 1962 and have never had a truly underground film in the past 30 years. Especially the works of the mainland.

"Heavenly Bath", which was banned in China before, doesn't count, because it was filmed by Chen Chong, an American.

This year's "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle". Not to mention, people have investment from Taiwan companies and the factory logo of Beijing Film Studio, at most they are co-productions that violate the regulations, and they are glorious.

But what is "This Summer"?

There is no factory standard, no company, completely personal behavior, and it is especially made by the banned goods. If you talk about the roots, you will be blown up ten streets.

During this period, the mainland's export controls on films were almost barbaric, especially in sensitive areas such as Wanwan. Sensei said that it is forbidden for films to participate in competitions, and even domestic stars have to be strictly approved when they go to participate in events and rub a red carpet or something.

The banned people and banned films on our side were thrown to your side and were taken seriously all of a sudden, so don't you slap your face!

They just make movies, and they don't want to mix with that set of things at all, but they are also afraid, afraid that the film bureau in the mainland will choke and protest, and even cause more uproar.

And "This Summer", which is completely in line with the registration conditions of the Golden Horse Awards, is simply terrible!

"Ladies and gentlemen......"

Wang Xiaoxiang saw that his friends didn't speak, so he had to say: "We know the situation, it's useless to talk more, let's vote directly." Raise your hand in favor! ”

Brush!

Gui Yalei was the first to raise her hand.

Then there are Liao Qingsong, Qiu Kunliang, Li Tian, Huang Chunming...... The others, on the other hand, sat still, and it was 5 to 5.

At this moment, the pressure instantly turned to Wang Xiaoxiang, he looked at the subtle gaze of his little partner, and couldn't help but shake his head, as if he had broken the kettle, as if he had broken out, and slowly poked his arm on the table.

…………

The executive committee is very entangled for itself, and of course Chu Qing doesn't know.

In the past two months since he came back from the mainland, he turned down a qiē film appointment, concentrated on rehearsing stage plays, and occasionally read books and practiced speaking when he had free time.

Well, in fact, there is no decent film to find him, and even Ah Guan can't look down on him, so he doesn't build yì to pick him up.

After several revisions, the book of the stage play finally took shape, adding a lot of funny and aesthetic elements that fit the children's aesthetics, full of positive energy. And the schedule of the performance has also been set, just a week before Christmas.

Chu Qing and Lin Jiaxin, the partners of tsundere angels and cute puppets, are getting more and more familiar and tacit. That girl doesn't have the pretentious style of a female star, doesn't wear famous brands, doesn't go to nightclubs, likes photography and pottery, and is a full literary young woman.

Chu Qing knew more or less about her previous experience, but she didn't ask in detail. There was a scandal in the newspaper about her affair with Zhang Hongliang, but the girl never explained, but just responded silently.

On the contrary, Zhang Hongliang's goods, it is not enough to hide other people's snow twice, and even a few years later, he still chatters endlessly, as if every qiē is the fault of the other party, and his character is simply scum.

In a blink of an eye, on November 8, the shortlist of the 38th Golden Horse Awards was announced.

Among them, "Lan Yu" is undoubtedly the big winner, with a total of 10 nominations. Zhang Zhiliang's "Panic Holiday" won 9 items, Chen Guo's "Durian Piao" had 7 items, and "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" had 6 items.

is related to Chu Qing, first of all, the best actor, and the opponents are Liu Dehua of "Thin Men and Women", Ekin Cheng of "Kowloon Ice Room", and Liu Ye.

Then there is "This Summer", the best film and director are all OK, Wang Tong has no suspense, Fan Xiaoye competes with a few actors who have never heard of it, and Zhang Jingchu was shortlisted for the best newcomer.

Combined with the cinematography and soundtrack, "This Summer" has a total of 7 nominations.

A proper victory!

When Chu Qing talked to the girls on the phone, they were all going crazy over there, and even Wang Tong was a little nervous, this is the Golden Horse Queen! Looking at its influence year by year, how many Chinese actors have worked hard all their lives, and they are still bright and empty, and they can only look up.

In short, the result is very gratifying, and the effort is not in vain.

The only thing to worry about is access.

The girls have to go through official approval to enter the stage, and this kind of personal power is insignificant, and they must rely on the coordination of the Executive Committee and the Information Bureau.

Chu Qing was very worried, it was easy to be shortlisted, and he was stuck by Wen Jiàn, so let his heart be stuffed! However, Ah Guan persuaded carefully and said that it could be solved.

Because this year's mainland army is too hanging, he, Liu Ye, Wang Tong, Zhang Jingchu, Fan Xiaoye, Li Yu, Wang Yu, Dou Wei, Qin Hailu, Wang Xiaoshuai, Li Bin, and Zhou Gongzi, who appeared at the closing ceremony with "Hong Kong has a Hollywood", a total of twelve people were nominated or invited.

What's the saying? Oh, and it's not itchy when there are more lice.

……

Magic City, Southwest Weiyu Middle School.

The weather had turned cooler, with the characteristic wet and cold of the south, and the sun was slightly dim, illuminating the school's playground half-brightly and half-dark. A new film from Shanghai Film Studio is being filmed here, called "Straight Forward".

"Click! Pass! ”

Director Mao Xiaorui showed his face from behind the monitor and waved his hand: "Rest for an hour!" ”

The crew responded, and their respective activities were sparse. Liu Ye put on a coat, walked over to a woman on the periphery, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, the director temporarily added some scenes." ”

"It's okay, I didn't have to wait long." The woman replied that she was a reporter from the "News* Evening News", and the two of them made an appointment for an interview yesterday, but they were delayed for about 20 minutes.

"What's the matter, let's go into the house, or leave it here?"

"I'll leave it at that."

"Okay!"

Liu Ye moved the two stools and sat down facing each other. The people next to him stared at it with envy, this is just a small-budget movie, and the biggest news point is him, especially in recent days, the number of reporters who came to interview has skyrocketed.

"Qin Hailu, haha, I know her too well, we also slept in the same bed...... Ah, no, no, it's not a bed, that bed used to be a girls' dormitory, and then it was changed to a boys' dormitory, and we both slept in succession. ”

He obviously lacks experience in facing the media, and is a bit messy, but there is a pride between the lines, and he said with a smile: "Our class has been on the two at once, which means that we are okay." ”

"Guan Jinpeng is a very good person, this drama was originally scheduled to be filmed for a month, but it turned out to be filmed for a whole month. But the whole crew had no complaints, no one mentioned adding money, they just wanted to do a good job together. ”

"I just finished filming "Balzac and the Little Tailor", Zhou Xun is definitely an actor who acts with heart, and she can communicate with her with just her eyes."

"You don't have to predict, it's not accurate."

The interview was very short, Liu Ye talked eloquently, chatted very happily, but at the end he wanted to politely decline the reporter's question about guessing who won the award, but after all, he couldn't stand the offensive and said cautiously: "The films of Ekin Lau and Ekin Cheng are a little more commercial than ours, and the jury taste of the Golden Horse Awards seems to be more artistic." I'm very happy with my performance, it's a big breakthrough, and ......"

He was in a trance inexplicably, this name seemed to have not been mentioned for a long, long time, and he had a more helpless strangeness, paused, and said softly: "And Brother Chu Qing, his play is super good, and he takes good care of me, and the possibility of winning the award in the end should be greater than mine."
