August 4, 1984.

The 3rd Hong Kong Film Awards Presentation Ceremony was held at the Shouson Theatre of the Hong Kong Arts Centre as usual.

The Hong Kong Film Awards (HKFILM) is a film awards established by Fortnight Cinema in 1982 with the aim of recognising outstanding filmmakers and reviewing the achievements of films in the past year, with a view to promoting the quality of Hong Kong films, raising the production standards of filmmakers and the appreciation of audiences.

In the early 80s, Hong Kong films had developed to a certain scale and occupied a place in Asia and even the world, but there were no film festivals of their own, and there were not even their own official organizations, and major film companies were bent on making movies to make money. It was not until November 1981 that at an editorial meeting of "Film Fortnightly", the editor-in-chief Chen Baisheng proposed the planning. On March 9, 1982, the first Xiangjiang Film Awards ceremony was held at the Shouson Theater of the Heung Kong Arts Center.

After the success of the first session, the second session set up a total of 12 awards, although the newly established Academy Awards has no authority at all, but the second Academy Awards held on July 30, by the infinite TV full live broadcast, the audience rate will increase linearly, and the influence will continue to expand in Hong Kong. In December 1983, it was officially registered as the "Hong Kong Film Awards Association", and maintained its daily expenses with TV and radio broadcast royalties and overseas distribution income, and its reputation has gradually approached the Golden Horse Awards held in Taiwan for many years - after all, the development of Hong Kong films is many times stronger than Taiwan's.

Nowadays, many artists are proud to have won a Academy Award, and there will be no more embarrassing scenes of multiple winners receiving awards at the award ceremony in the first session.

In later generations, Hong Kong's Film Awards, Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards, and the Mainland's Golden Rooster Awards will be known as the three major awards for Chinese films.

Liangkun in front of the TV opened the magazine of "Film Fortnightly", and the list of nominees for the 3rd Academy Awards was announced.

Under the auspices of Chung King-fai, the host, former artistic chief counsel of the Hong Kong Repertory Theatre and the founding director of the School of Drama of the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts in 1983, the awards began to be awarded, and finally the "Best Actor" arrived.

"Winner Hua Di "Listening to Politics with a Curtain"!"

Watching the TV, Hua Di jumped up happily and took a blue crystal square from the hand of the award presenter.

The corners of Liangkun's mouth twitched, and he laughed to himself: "Boy, you are still too happy." ”

In the early days, there was no fixed trophy design, the trophy of the first award ceremony was a simple metal figure, the trophy of the second award ceremony was a male holding up the planet, and the trophy of the third award ceremony was a blue crystal square, and from the fourth award ceremony the trophy was changed to a muscular male waving his hand and running forward.

In order to express the dynamics of the characters, the characters have two heads, one in front and one in the back, connected by flowing clouds-like lines. Therefore, it was nicknamed "two-headed monster" by Hong Kong people. The "Double-Headed Monster" trophy was once used as a fixed image of the Academy Awards, and was awarded for many consecutive years, but as the scale of the Academy Awards became larger and higher, the filmmakers were not very satisfied with the artistic but slightly weird medals, and decided to come to a rebirth.

In 1990, the Organizing Committee of the Academy Awards invited the Hong Kong Artists Alliance to participate in the design, and the artist spent a lot of effort and changed the draft ten times, and finally decided to adopt the hand-held planet designed by Master Liang Quan, surrounded by film, and the posture is positive and full of yearning. The shape of this new trophy is not imaginary, but copied from Miss Hong Kong Cheng Wenya, who named the trophy "Starlight Glory". In 1991, the new trophy was officially launched at the 10th Hong Kong Film Awards.

Sure enough, within a few days, Mary Donna spread out the "Industrial and Commercial Daily" in her hand, pointed to the news on it and said: "This Chinese brother is really declining, he was banned by Taiwan just after becoming an actor." ”

Liangkun took a look at the newspaper, and the news headline of "Industrial and Commercial Daily" was straightforward, directly "The new actor of the Academy Awards was tragically blocked".

The specific content of the ban order is as follows: All films, television, and audio-visual products in which Hua Di participates are not allowed to be sold into Taiwan, and Hua Di is ordered to report to the Taiwan Information Bureau within seven days, seriously reflect on it, and publicly publish a letter of repentance, and promise that he will no longer secretly cooperate with bandits and spies, otherwise he will be permanently blocked.

Liangkun was not surprised, this kind of thing is no longer strange: Xu Anhua filmed "Running to the Angry Sea" in Hainan, she was only a pseudonym at first, but after winning the Academy Awards, she did not escape the fate of being banned. Now, Hua Di actually used his real name to go to the mainland to make films, and because of this, he won the actor, so it is no wonder that he was not banned by the Taiwan authorities.

Calling Hua Di to the Charles Club, Liang Kun asked, "Do you want to go to the Taiwan Information Bureau to report and publicly publish a letter of repentance?" ”

Brother Hua said angrily: "I am Chinese, filming on Chinese soil, why ban me, I will not report, nor publish any repentance." If you want to report, you report it yourself! ”

After the hits of "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" and "Listening to Politics with the Curtain", Hua Di became famous in Hong Kong. However, he did not accept any more film appointments, but waited for the filming of the later parts of "The Legend of Cixi", but after waiting for half a year, he was told that the next few films would not be filmed.

Brother Hua's savings at this time have been almost used, and after being nominated for the best actor, he finally accepted a movie contract and an advertising contract, but now he is in vain because he was banned by Taiwan, and he is angry.

Liangkun said: "Okay, if you don't want to go, I still have to fight for it." ”

"Knock knock!" Just when Hua Di was angry with Liangkun, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

Liangkun said angrily: "The door is not locked." Come on in. ”

Li Hanxiang pushed the door in, said hello to Liangkun, and when he saw Brother Hua with a depressed face, he hated iron and said, "Look at you, what has become of you now?" It's just that it was blocked by Taiwan, and it wasn't like the sky was falling. ”

Brother Hua squeezed out an ugly smile and said, "Master, I'm fine." You don't have to worry. ”

"I'm not here to comfort you today," Li Hanxiang suddenly changed the topic and asked, "What's going on with you and Alang, how do you say that you will break up?" ”

Hua Di was silent for a while and said, "We both felt that each other was not very suitable for lovers, so we broke up." I'm still good friends with Aaron. ”

Li Hanxiang sighed, he was very optimistic about Brother Hua's prospective son-in-law, but he didn't expect Brother Hua to break up with his daughter quietly.

Li Hanxiang left, and Liangkun said to Brother Hua: "You are banned again, and you are out of love, it seems that you need to have a drink and get drunk to relieve a thousand sorrows!" ”

Hua Di said: "Can you get the order free, I don't have a penny now!" ”

Liangkun said: "Then do you still want to come back and mix?" I can let you take care of the site of the public square street. ”

Hua Di said: "I'll try it!" ”

Liangkun said: "The black fly's left hand is broken, and now it is almost raised, so let him come out to help you." ”

Hua Di said: "It's all up to Brother Kun to arrange!" ”

Liangkun said: "Then so be it, I will take a plane to Taiwan early tomorrow morning." ”
