Chapter 563: Invitation to the Academy Awards (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

When Lin Dong saw that all his Weibo super talk owed him a movie ticket, it was already a few days later.

He took a leave of absence from the plot of "Heavenly Bureau" and went to Xiangjiang.

When he was in Jinma last year, he fed mosquitoes in the Silver Triangle, and the mosquito boss there was so big that he felt that he could roast and eat it on skewers.

Now the Academy Awards have sent him an invitation again.

It's not good to say no more.

Otherwise, all the award ceremonies in the future will think that you don't like to accept the award, and they won't invite you next time.

Lin Dong is not so high, he still wants to win the actor.

Founded in 1982, the Hong Kong Film Awards are known as the three major Chinese film awards, along with the Golden Rooster Award and the Golden Horse Film Award.

The Academy Awards used to be a very good award, at least it was.

I remember that in Zhou Longxing's classic movie "Ouchi Secret Agent Zero Hair", there was such a nonsensical plot:

After the arrest of the final boss, the palace temporarily held an acting "awards ceremony".

"Best Actress" was awarded to Carina Lau's wife, while Best Actor was awarded to Zero Hair............... Father-in-law!

Zhou Longxing's Zero Hair was very dissatisfied with the result, and the host complained about his poor acting skills, his acting skills were only superficial, and he also questioned whether he would act!

This plot, in fact, is more of a satire or complaining that in reality, the "Xiangjiang Academy Awards" don't know how to appreciate Zhou Longxing's acting skills!

Although Zhou Longxing has been called "Star Master" for a long time, in reality, this Academy Award has not even been able to "climb" him, the "Star Master".

As early as 1991, he was nominated for the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards for "The Saint of Gambling", and he was nominated four times before the release of "Ouchi Secret Agent Zero Hair", but he just didn't win the award!

"His expression is exaggerated, and his acting skills are only superficial", this is what the judges said about him at that time!

It wasn't until 2002 that he won the Best Actor at the Academy Awards for "Shaolin Football"!

Of course, this is not to give in for Zhou Longxing.

He has nothing to be aggrieved about, comedy does not have an advantage in terms of awards.

What's more, those competing with him are Liang Zihui, Liang Chaowei, Fa Ge and other Xiangjiang acting "first columns", and they are actually "masters" in terms of acting skills.

Everyone is a master, why should you let it.

If they can keep holding on, don't give awards to the pompous Zhou Longxing, they can also get everyone's respect, but it's a pity that they can't stand it, they can't do it.

Yes, the Academy Awards are no longer working.

The rise and fall of the Academy Awards is directly related to the rise and fall of Xiangjiang films.

The 90s of the last century was precisely the most glorious era of Xiangjiang films.

In terms of economy, the 90s was the era when the "Four Little Tigers" in Asia had the best development momentum, and the GDP of Hong Kong was once about 24% of that of the mainland.

So at that time, the first-class Chinese film talents all went to Xiangjiang to develop!

Some of the faces we often see in Hong Kong films are actually running past that period.

For example, our Uncle Xu Jinjiang, he is actually a Northeasterner.

In the case of "the right time, the right place and the right people", Xiangjiang films had reached their peak at that time, and they were almost the center of Chinese films at that time.

How brilliant the Xiangjiang movies were back then, how brilliant the Xiangjiang Awards were at that time!

From Stephen Chow's inability to easily win the Academy Award "Best Actor", it can reflect the glory of the Xiangjiang Academy Awards at that time.

In recent years, due to the economic development of the mainland, the economic status of Hong Kong has been far less than that of the past, and the mainland has become the center of Chinese films.

Where there is money, first-class film talents will run there, this is the eternal truth of the film industry.

With the decline of Xiangjiang, the Academy Awards are getting cooler and cooler.

What's more, in this environment, they have not yet embraced change.

and continued to die.

On the list of nominations and winners in previous years, they are all local films and filmmakers in Hong Kong, but the excellent films of the mainland and Wanwan have never been in their eyes.

Best Actor and Actress in the Golden Statue, there are only Zhang Caiwei, Zhou Xun, and Zhao Yanzi in the mainland, and it is because he played a Hong Kong film.

So, unlike the star-studded cross-strait and star-studded Golden Horse Awards, and the Huabiao Awards attended half of the film circle, the biggest highlight of the annual ceremony of the Academy Awards is the few Xiangjiang actors who have been in the limelight for many years - Fa Ge, Guo Tianwang, Liu Furong, Gu Shaolong... There is hardly any fresh blood to be seen.

The current Academy Awards blindly draw the ground as a prison, blocking movies from other regions, and "making" themselves into the Academy Awards of Xiangjiang people.

Just as the Hong Kong circle of the Academy Awards is holding together and entertaining itself, Xiangjiang Films is also keen on independent production, but the market is small, and the capital investment cannot be huge, so it can only produce some small costs, which has a sense of going off the rails.

The subject matter of the film is often tentative at the edge of the scale, there are too many marginal contents, and there is a suspicion of opportunism to attract attention, which is a bit vulgar.

In fact, since Xu Wei, Zhou Longxing, Wong Kar-wai and other big directors went north, the golden age of local films in Hong Kong has come to an end.

Looking back at the 70s and 80s of the last century, Xiangjiang movies are the existence that the entire Chinese-speaking circle looks up to, from martial arts films, martial arts films, gunfight films, to urban romance films, it has brought us many classics.

was gorgeous at the end of that century, and even every Xiangjiang movie star, Zhong Chuhong, Maggie Cheung, Lin Qingxia, Wang Zuxian, Zhang Min...... They are all peerless.

The otaku said that if they could marry one and go home, it would be worth living for only one year.

However, those indelible glories are now a thing of the past.

Today's Xiangjiang movies have always been those actors in the past, who were playing the lead and supporting the scene, and they couldn't see young faces.

And a world without young people has no future.

In this year's Academy Awards, Lin Dong is a rare inner ground hole.

The nominated award is Best Supporting Actor for "Kill the Wolf 2", and the suit Bunny is online again.

Although this is a Xiangjiang movie, Lin Dong is undoubtedly a real mainland artist, and most of the works he starred in have nothing to do with the Xiangjiang film industry.

Now, his movie "Xinshu Mountain" is a big hit, and even Xiangjiang, which has not been released, is well known.

Many people are looking forward to the day "New Shu Mountain" landed in cinemas in Xiangjiang on May 1 - the distribution outside the mainland was handed over to Disney, including Xiangjiang, and "New Shu Mountain" will be released simultaneously worldwide on May 1.

There are many Xiangjiang people who are unwilling to wait, and they have already gone to the mainland to see.

Ten years of cold windows no one asked, in one fell swoop became famous all over the world!

Lin Dong was originally just a young actor who has only emerged in recent years, and Xiangjiang will not look at him differently, after all, he is not a star and a half worse than Liang Zihui, Gu Shaolong, and Liu Qingyun.

You ask why you compare a young man with an old actor.

Just as you can't wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep, you have no place to reason, and people can compare as they want.

The fire of "Xinshu Mountain" made the Xiangjiang entertainment industry, which is the supreme box office, let go of its arrogance.

It just so happens that Lin Dong has a nomination for Best Supporting Actor - if you don't even have this nomination, inviting people to participate is called being a teacher, and Lin Dong can be dismissed in two sentences.

In order to make Lin Dong come.

The Academy Awards asked three people to call Lin Dong to invite.

One of them is Zhou Longxing, who used to be very unhappy with the Academy Awards.

Now the two sides seem to have reconciled.

invited Lin Dong to participate in the Academy Awards, and said that he would invite him to dinner in Xiangjiang.

This is someone who knows Lin Dong better, after all, after the cooperation of the three movies "Journey to the West", "Mermaid" and "Xinshu Mountain", he has long known that Lin Dong loves food as much as he loves money.

The other is Liu Qingyun.

They once attended the Spring City Film Festival together.

In fact, there are not many intersections.

They just added friends to each other, and after Lin Dong won the Best Actor at the Spring City Film Festival, that is, the pseudo-actor, he posted on Weibo to congratulate them.

In order to clarify the rumors that the award is shady.

It's all a gesture of goodwill, a gesture of goodwill.

If Lin Dong defeated Liu Qingyun and won the award, he felt that his acting skills were better than Liu Qingyun, then he would really be embarrassed.

Yes, specially, shameless!

There is also Xu Wei, who was nominated for Best Director at the Academy Awards this time for "Outwitting the Mountain Carving", and Lin Dong is actually an actor in "Outwitting the Mountain Carving".

With so many good friends invited, Lin Dong called Zhou Longxing to say that he was willing to attend, and asked where to eat.
