Chapter 309: When Contempt Forms a Chain, Look at It for Another Ten Years
"Best Cinematography at the 26th Hong Kong Film Awards...... Liu Weiqiang! "Wounded City"! ”
At the Hong Kong Arts Centre, Liu Weiqiang came to the stage to accept the award in high spirits.
Photography is his old profession, and he did this before he became a director, so winning the award this time is nothing, but there is a lot of significance in it, especially before he went on stage, he gave Bai Shiqiu a lot of sharp glances.
It's a pity... Bai Shiqiu didn't look at him at all.
That's a little unpretty.
So what is Bai Shiqiu doing?
He was sitting here at the "Night Banquet" team at this time, whispering to Zhou Xun.
"What if you don't get the prize?" Zhou Xun was still wearing a veil today and asked in a low voice.
"Cold salad." Bai Shiqiu is very casual.
"Hehehe......" Zhou Xun wanted to laugh, "But I think they can't go too far, isn't this award voted for?" ”
This is to comfort Bai Shiqiu, Lao Bai nodded.
The Academy Awards are voted out, but they are voted by Hong Kong film-related people, divided into two rounds of voting, 100 people in the first round, 50 people in the second round, these individuals are from 13 film-related associations in Hong Kong, including the Hong Kong Film Industry Association, Directors Guild, Chamber of Commerce, Photographers Association, Entertainers Association, Stuntmen Guild......
This voting system seems to be quite fair, and the voting people cannot have members of the companies participating in the selection of works, but after all, these individuals are all local filmmakers in Hong Kong, and they are still greatly influenced by local public opinion in Hong Kong.
The outcome is indeed unpredictable.
And those who care about the results of this award, especially whether Bai Shiqiu will win the award, not only are there beautiful stars like Zhou Xun, but two people also flew directly from the capital, they are the Wang brothers.
The two of them came very suddenly, so they couldn't sit on the side of "Night Banquet", but they were okay and could talk.
"Brother, do you think that kid will win an award?"
"I see, it's hard."
"Brother, these grandsons in Hong Kong are playing very hard."
"How else will the two of us have a chance to watch this?"
The two of them talked about it here, hehe, Naole.
Originally, I didn't plan to go to Hong Kong to participate in this Academy Awards, but Feng Xiaogang, who was a director, didn't come, and the two of them appeared strangely. In other words, Feng Xiaogang is very aggrieved because he filmed this drama, and he was not shortlisted for Best Director, so why did he come here.
But the Wang brothers heard that Bai Shiqiu was playing a big name in Hong Kong, and it happened to be during the Academy Awards, so it would be a pity not to come and see it.
In the eyes of the Wang brothers, this Academy Award is not a big deal, but if you can see Bai Shiqiu deflated, it will be worth the ticket price, and it will be worth it, and if it is good this time, Bai Shiqiu's reputation will be greatly damaged.
After all, the Academy Awards is one of the three awards for discourse films, what effect will Bai Shiqiu have if he collapses here?
And there are many unfavorable rumors, if this series of news spreads from Hong Kong to the mainland, Bai Shiqiu, a kid, will suffer.
At the beginning, many celebrity gossips came from Hong Kong, such as Dou Wei and Wang Jingwen back then.
At the same time, not only the Wang brothers, but also many people on the mainland who care about this matter on the Internet, especially Bai Shiqiu's fans, No. 4.
"Has the broadcast started?"
"Here we go!"
"Which one?"
"There are in Lingnan."
"So what do you think of this?"
"Look at the webpage."
The No. 4 area on the Youxi network is already overcrowded at this time, and it is only text broadcast at the moment, and the words of the TV station are subject to geographical restrictions, so many people sell F5 online.
"What will happen if our family is empty-handed?" ID, the big sweet man sent a tearful expression.
"I'm afraid of a fart! Lao Bai is not sweeping in our continent yet. ID, the truck driver is full of confidence.
"That's right, if you want me to think so, Hong Kong people think too highly of themselves." ID, Yueyu Xiaolou posted again.
"If you don't win the award, you will support Lao Bai the same!"
"Always support Lao Bai!"
Many of the No. 4 have shouted slogans, and at the same time, this page is brushing, brushing, and F5 is clattering.
The award ceremony is still quite long, various awards, and some guests tell jokes, the most embarrassing is Uncle Benshan, this Hong Kong also invited Uncle Benshan, but Uncle Benshan said two jokes and threw several burdens...... The scene was relatively quiet.
"Hahaha......" Bai Shiqiu smiled.
It was quite embarrassing at one point.
Nothing more, and after more than an hour, the important award finally came.
"Best Supporting Actress...... Weekly News! ”
Because of the young girl in "Night Banquet", Zhou Xun won the best supporting actress.
Bai Shiqiu naturally wanted to congratulate her, but what is interesting is that Senior Sister Zhang Ziyi did not appear at this award ceremony, obviously, she knew that she would not win the Best Actress.
Moreover, Bai Shiqiu didn't see Senior Sister Gong Li, it seems that the two of them have a tacit understanding.
Zhou Xun came to the stage, of course, he read a testimonial, and took a note out, afraid that she would forget the words, but when she finished reading the note, she also said a paragraph.
"Actually, when filming "Night Banquet", Lao Bai also worked very hard, his acting skills inspired me, in that scene, it was that scene, Wuluan was with Qingnu, and the tears he shed at that time made me ...... now Thank you, Lao Bai. ”
At the end of the day, there seemed to be something glittering under the veil.
The direct camera was given to Bai Shiqiu, and Bai Shiqiu gave Zhou Xun a thumbs up.
Bang Bang Bang ...... The audience burst into applause.
"Why thank me?"
"Thank you."
When they came back, Bai Shiqiu also asked, but he encountered white eyes.
Didn't you cry on stage before?
A woman's heart, a needle under the sea, really can't figure it out.
Zhou Xun's unexpected change when receiving the award made Chen Jiashang scratch his head a little, and this thank you made him a little embarrassed.
Why do you want to thank Bai Shiqiu for hitting the street?
And then, the Academy Awards went to an unexpected change.
"Let's take a look at who ...... Best Actress"
Best Actress?
Generally speaking, Best Supporting Actress is followed by Best Supporting Actor, which is an award at this level, but now it is unbelievable that such a hand has been made.
Hong Kong has already started scolding on the Internet.
"Make no mistake!"
"Why is this happening?"
"What about Bai Shiqiu? We want to see the picture of him losing the prize! ”
Many Hong Kong netizens have already been mobilized by public opinion, and they are waiting for the results.
As everyone knows, this is Chen Jiashang's cleverness.
No one stipulates that the supporting actress is followed by the supporting actor, and the two female awards are placed in close proximity, can't we respect women?
In fact, Chen Jiashang was all for this before.
Ratings.
The Academy Awards advertise that they do not accept any commercial donations and sponsorships, and only rely on ratings to win the awards, and Chen Jiashang is the chairman for the first time this year, he wants to make achievements, but what should he do?
Yes, I promised Mr. Wu before, but this is just a boat with the flow.
It is Liu Weiqiang who is engaged in white Shiqiu, provokes topics, and goes out to take the lead, and these topics are bound to greatly increase the ratings of the Academy Awards, and now they are changing the procedure like this, which is more conducive to the ratings.
Chen Jia looks obscene on the surface, but his brain is excellent, he is actually about the same age as Liu Weiqiang, both of them were born in 60, but they are much older than Liu Weiqiang in appearance, and they usually use their brains less.
The awards for the two male roles are hidden behind, and this is the hottest topic award, and the ratings are naturally rising.
Chen Jiashang's abacus played very well, but he didn't expect another accident.
"Best Actress...... Gong Li! "The City is Full of Golden Armor"! ”
Gong Li won the Best Actress, but Gong Li, an international superstar, was too characterful to be present at all, a friend went up to accept the award, and this acceptance speech was even more interesting.
"I only accept the award on behalf of Ms. Gong Li...... Ms. Gong Li called me before and asked me to thank one person, that is, the actor of Jiang Dahai in the crew of "Golden Armor", Mr. Bai Shiqiu! She said, thank you for everything you have done with this play. ”
Another thanks!
This is too strange, but the camera is not stupid, and it immediately turned to Bai Shiqiu.
Wave your hand.
Bai Shiqiu was very indifferent and smiled.
Today's Academy Awards, this is the end, no matter what the final result is, Bai Shiqiu must be the one with the most shots.
"This ......" Chen Jiashang panicked inexplicably.
And the same bad feeling is the Wang brothers.
"Brother, what's going on?"
"Hiss~~ What about Gong Li...... What did you learn from Zhou Xun? ”
The Wang brothers originally wanted to watch a good show, but now that they look at it, it seems that this play is going to be ridiculous.
However, netizens in our mainland reacted differently.
slapped F5 and brushed out this testimonial, and the No. 4s were a little inexplicably excited.
"I see! Maybe it's the Dongfeng boss who said it! "ID, Youxian is here again, and he's excited to speak.
What did the Dongfeng boss say?
"I'll just say it, there must be a friendship of three links...... "ID, Dongfeng ...... The big guy appears.
Needless to say, the No. 4 people were happy in an instant, and it was a good person to the landlord, and the landlord had a safe life.
It's just that Zhou Xun's eyes in the scene are a little weird.
"What are you looking at?" Bai Shiqiu couldn't help but say this.
"Look at you!" Zhou Xun also learned Northeast dialect.
But then, it's the best supporting actor, but Bai Shiqiu somewhat understands.
Soon, the results came in.
Best Supporting Actor at the 26th Hong Kong Film Awards...... Bai Shiqiu! "The City is Full of Golden Armor"! ”
Sure enough, this is it!
"Wow!"
Bang Bang Bang ......
The scene was full of applause and applause.
As soon as this result came out, Liu Weiqiang knew that he had not guessed wrong, this was it.
This is the best result, and after that......
Bai Shiqiu simply tidied up his clothes, he still didn't wear a bow tie or tie today, it was very casual, but the clothes on his body were not cheap.
Came to the stage quickly, as if he was afraid of delaying time, took the trophy from the guest, Bai Shiqiu smiled slightly, and then put the trophy on the podium.
For this year's Academy Awards, the podium design is made of acrylic transparent material.
"Say something." Bai Shiqiu started to talk, "A lot of things have happened before, I know that I will win this Best Supporting Actor, it's very simple, because if I, the Cannes actor, lose to Wu Jingtao's children, it will make people question the professionalism of the Academy Awards." I also know that I won't win the Academy Award for Best Actor, but the reason is that the role of Wuluan is not enough to win awards, and I like Brother Qingyun's performance even more, which is great. Fa Ge, I'm sorry. ”
There was a burst of laughter, but.
These words seem inexplicable, but the things in them make Chen Jiashang and Liu Weiqiang sweat profusely.
It's horrible!
This Bai Shiqiu could actually think of this.
That's how it was arranged, if you don't give Bai Shiqiu an award, it would be too fake, it seems that someone is targeting him, but he can't give it to the actor, it's too heavy, so the supporting actor is the most suitable.
Look, the Cannes actor is only Best Supporting Actor at the Hong Kong Film Awards.
This result was indeed voted for, but this is only the opinion of 150 people, and they are all small Hong Kong associations.
However, Bai Shiqiu's words were not finished, he said with a smile: "I have a lot to say, I hope everyone can be patient." ”
Taking a breath, "First of all, why is all this happening?" From the very beginning, there were some frictions between director Wu Yusen and me, and later, what happened between me and some directors in Hong Kong. ”
"It's very simple, I'm from the mainland. This is contempt, or is it a chain of contempt. Western filmmakers look down on the East, and Liu Weiqiang's "Infernal Affairs" missed the Oscar, while the adapted "Infernal Affairs" won big. Some Hong Kong filmmakers look down on our mainland, and it is true that our mainland started relatively late in some aspects. ”
"However, the reason why I Bai Shiqiu talked about this chain of contempt is not to avenge myself, nor to condemn this phenomenon, and I dare to touch my conscience and say that although I am at the bottom of this chain of contempt, I have never cared about these contempt, and I even feel that these contempt people are pathetic, because they don't really start from the perspective of the movie, with a colored vision, they can't seek truth from facts."
"I, Bai Shiqiu, are here to say this chain of contempt, and I believe that many people dare not say it, even if everyone understands it in their hearts. I just want to tell those colleagues who harbor contempt that you should think about the history of Hong Kong cinema. More than ten years ago, Hong Kong films had a choice, whether to go to Taiwan or the mainland, what was the result? ”
"I want to persuade those filmmakers who have contempt in their hearts to let go of the distractions in their hearts, contempt is something that hinders your development."
"In the end, I want to say that I don't care about this award, some of the rumors out there are ridiculous."
"Finally, it's 07 now, and it's been almost ten years since the return, so let's just look at another ten years, and what will happen in ten years."
Ten years, Bai Shiqiu knew that ten years later, there would be a movie called "Ten Years" at the Academy Awards.
After finishing speaking, the audience was silent, only Bai Shiqiu walked off the stage with a smile, and many people noticed that the little golden man for the best supporting actor was still on the podium.
