Volume 1 Chapter 273 Academy Awards 3
Ghost queen Wang Xiaofeng unexpectedly lost to Ye Tong and was taken away by her Best Supporting Actress Award, which made Lin Xiaozhi shake his head. Speaking from the heart, although "Psycho" is a little worse, it can let Lin Qingxia, Wang Chixian and Wang Xiaofeng, three first-line actresses, play on the same stage, which shows that the quality of the movie is still good. I can't bear the Academy Awards and I'm ready to make a big hit, this urine has not changed for a few years, and I still hope to catch up with the Oscars.
The Best Supporting Actor Award was followed by the Best Director Award, although he knew that he was likely to act, but Lin Xiaozhi and Ye Weixin both sat up straight and paid attention.
There is no doubt that this award will be personally issued by Chen Xinjianlai, the president of the Directors Guild, so no big stars were invited to the stage as temporary award presenters.
Shun Jianxun first raised the microphone and briefly reviewed: "In the past year, although the Hong Kong film market has been sluggish due to the impact of political turmoil, many good movies have been born that have made people applaud and sell at the box office. It is precisely because there are so many good movies that when the jury chose to nominate this year's best director, it even fought for it, and almost fought because there were too many good movies
"So this year we made a breakthrough by giving seven directors nominations for Best Director at the Academy Awards. They are Mr. Ye Weixin, who filmed "Friends", Mr. Ye Weixin skillfully uses black humor in this movie with a strong Western film style, and dissects human nature very thoroughly, which is a good movie that people have to seriously reflect on after watching it......"
"The second best director nominee is Mr. Wu Yusen, who filmed "Bloody Heroes", and we would like to thank him for bringing us a good movie after "The True Color of Heroes", ......"
"Mr. Du Qifeng's Story of Ruan" and Mr. Zhang Zhiliang's "Flying Dusk" should be the two warmest movies in 89 years, the two directors used their hands to seriously shape two ordinary and unusual families and stories, and I would like to thank the two directors for this......
"Mr. Chen You's first film "The Man Who Doesn't Take Off His Socks" is very touching, and Ms. Zhang Wanting's "Eight Liang Gold" is the same, the most luscious ending gives people reflection and infinite sentimentality, and it is difficult to find a second female director with such a delicate mind looking at the whole of Hong Kong......"
Last year, his "Killer Leon" successfully landed in the European market, not only caused a storm in the UK, setting a new box office record for a Chinese film in the UK, but also landed in other parts of Europe and the United States in the following six months, so far, the film has won nearly $40 million at the box office in Europe and the United States, and is the most successful film exported by Hong Kong to Europe and the United States in recent years. It is said that this movie has brought Lin Sheng and his film company a net profit of more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, I don't know if this is true or not, but many people must still remember the popularity of this movie when it was released......"
The camera eventually stayed on Lim Hyo-chi, and some of the people sitting near him congratulated him
"Okay, so I don't know who will win this year's 'Best Director'?"
The concierge lady slowly walked up to the front desk from the backstage and delivered an envelope to Chen Xinjian's hand. He said with excitement in his tone, "Then dear guests, and friends in front of the audience. Now I will tear open the envelope and witness the Best Director at the 9th Film Awards with you will be ......"
There was a soft hiss, and the envelope was torn open. In an instant, Chen Xinjian's expression suddenly became very surprised, he grew his mouth and exclaimed, when he saw him looking at him with an incredible look of his side, Lin Xiaozhi's heart suddenly jumped, could it be himself?
As if to verify his words, Chen Xinjian continued: "I didn't expect him to win this year's Best Director Award, which seems to be reasonable. In the past few years, several works have been born from his hands, all of which have set off a hot movie-watching frenzy in Hong Kong, and they have continued to sell overseas, and I don't think I am surprised to win this award. Next, it is up to me to announce that it is Lin ...... who won the best director of this year Mr. Wu Yusen"
The moment he shouted the word Lin out of his mouth, Lin Xiaozhi's heart suddenly accelerated. Immediately, Chen Xinjian's voice changed, and it only changed to 'Wu Yusen, these three words, after Lin Xiaozhi reacted, he couldn't help frowning and scolding his mother, and glanced at this thing.
"Let us congratulate Mr. Wu Yusen with warm applause, the jury generally believes that Mr. Wu Yusen has not rested on his laurels since the successful shooting of "The True Color of Heroes", a film that had a profound impact on Hong Kong films in 87, and it is clear from his new works that he is still improving. Thanks to Wu Yusen, "Bloody Heroes" was very well filmed"
As soon as Wu Yusen's three words came out, Ye Weixin was like a deflated balloon, and his face deflated
Lin Xiaozhi could only comfort: "Don't care about Ashin, you are still young." ”
His only two nominations were wiped out, and he was also fired, and he just smiled bitterly that he was not very suitable for Chen Xinjian's Hong Kong-style humor. Ye Weixin is a few years younger than him, and now he is relying on the backer of New Asia Film Company, isn't it a matter of time before he wins the award, why bother with it for a while.
Ye Weixin sighed, nodded and admired Lin Xiaozhi's good attitude at the same time.
The award ceremony lasted for dozens of minutes, and as the awards were handed out, there were only three heavyweight awards left: Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Film.
Best Actor is commonly known as the actor, Xu Jinjiang has been acting in bad movies since he came to Hong Kong in his early years, and he has never had a chance to win awards or anything. relied on "Killer Leon" to win the Best Actor nomination for the first time, although he also knew that it was almost difficult for him to get the best actor, but after Shum Jianxun read the nomination, he writhed excitedly from time to time, looking restless.
Not surprisingly, he still failed to get the position of actor, and was won by Fa Ge with "The Story of Yu", achieving the first three-crown actor in the history of the Academy Awards, 79 three times), which caused a sensation in the audience, and the tsunami-like applause lasted for three or four minutes.
However, the Best Actress Award that came later surprised Lin Xiaozhi a little.
“… It's hard to imagine what kind of emotion I felt when I saw this list of winners. This year's Academy Awards may be destined to be deeply recorded in the history of the Academy Awards and remembered by future generations. Yes, because we just gave birth to the first triple crown actor, and now we are going to give birth to a little actress. ”
When Xu Guanwen, who was in charge of the Best Actress award ceremony, tore open the envelope, and then suddenly widened his eyes and said this in a very incredible tone, Lin Xiaozhi was stimulated by his words and almost got up from his seat.
"Why are you looking at me?"
The little girl Xu Ruoxuan was sitting on Li Jiaxin's side, this girl who was just fourteen years old obviously didn't understand what Xu Guanwen meant, and suddenly found that the camera was aimed at her, and many people around her were pointing at her, this girl muttered, and then lowered her head and yawned, and her cute appearance made many people in the audience laugh.
Yes, although she is more mature than children of the same age, although she shows the image of a young and old girl in the movie "Killer Leon", she is still just a little girl who has just come out of elementary school, and no matter how mature she is, she can only compare with her peers.
“…… The Best Actress nomination at this year's Academy Awards is Miss Zhang Manyu, the heroine of "The Man Who Doesn't Take Off His Socks", and our little actress, Miss Xu Ruoxuan"
Since the second time in the history of the Academy Awards that there have been two actors at the same time, it is said that the jury has amended the constitution, and there have never been two actors or actresses at the same time. However, this year's Academy Awards broke their own charter and made an exception for such the smallest actress in history. Lin Xiaozhi thought for a while, and realized something in his heart.
Last year's political storm hit Hong Kong films hard, and the total box office in '89 was a full 17 years lower than that of RR. , it seems that many people in the film industry are very troubled.
Although the Academy Awards emphasize literature and art over commerce, its appearance itself is to promote and encourage Hong Kong films to continue to progress.
Therefore, there are many hot and dark horses, and many nominations have surpassed the past few sessions, and there have been U or even 71 nominees. That's why Zhou Runfa, the unprecedented three-time winner of the Academy Awards, appeared. And the appearance of another youngest queen in history, it is obvious that the publicity effect will undoubtedly be even better.
Perhaps it is for this reason that this is the case.
The little girl Xu Ruoxuan quickly understood the situation under Li Jiaxin's explanation, although she was a little stage frightened, she still took the trophy on stage, bowed around and said a few words of thanks. Xinya did not prepare her acceptance speech at all, which was undoubtedly Lin Xiaozhi's lack of preparation. In fact, before this, he never thought that Xu Ruoxuan could win the award of actress. If she was nominated for the Best New Actor Award, maybe he would care more, just take her for a walk, but he didn't want to give her an unexpected award, fortunately, no one deliberately embarrassed her, a little girl who was just fourteen years old, if Zhang Manyu didn't prepare an acceptance speech, it is estimated that tomorrow the newspaper would not know how to write it.
Even Xu Ruoxuan won the actress, and when he thought of the last best film award, his "Color is Empty" and "Killer Leon" had two nominations, accounting for one-third of the six nominated films. So Lin Xiaozhi looked forward to it a little, who would have expected that when Wu Siyuan, vice chairman of the Academy Awards jury, read out the list, he found that he still ignored the urine of the Academy Awards.
Best Film, winner of "Flying Dusk"
This is indeed a rare literary film, and it is also a warm and good movie, but it was overhyped by the Academy Awards, and it lost its taste.
Doesn't the box office matter? Can you make a movie without money?
"Flying Twilight" was released on September 7, and it was only painted on September 2, and it was recommended by a large number of film critics for two weeks after its release, but as of the end of the painting, its box office was still only 4.3 million Hong Kong dollars
But it is such a movie that has been strongly praised by the Academy Awards jury, not to mention being nominated for eight Academy Awards before, and winning three awards, so it has won countless acclaimed and popular movies.
This is the Academy Awards
