"How about this movie called Mr. What Tree? I didn't even notice it."

"I haven't seen it either. There are too many films on display at the film festival. Who can watch them all? They must all choose to watch them."

"But it would be understandable if it was Xu Ji. His ability to write scripts is still very strong. Although "Wushuang" is a genre film, it is not a bad film at least."

"Xu Ji is really great, but I didn't expect that he would now start to get involved in literary films."

......

After "Hello! Mr. Tree" won three awards, everyone at the scene began to talk about it.

Such a performance, even if it does not win the Golden Goblet Award in the main competition unit, can definitely be regarded as the dark horse of this Shanghai Film Festival.

And such a movie is obviously highly rated by the jury.

It is really possible to win the subsequent highest award, the Golden Goblet Award.

The best film of the subsequent Media Awards was also announced, which announced that all the awards in the second unit have been awarded.

Next is the highlight of the Shanghai Film Festival.

It is also the most valuable award at every Shanghai Film Festival and the most recognized award within the outside world and the industry - the Golden Goblet Award.

"The next award is the main competition unit, the first award of the Golden Goblet Award, the 'Artistic Achievement Award'"

"Please look at the big screen!"

As the award-giving guest finished speaking, a short video began to play on the screen.

This award is actually a little bit special. It is mainly awarded to people who have made great contributions in the film industry. They are not necessarily directors and actors, but may also be staff such as costume designers, prop masters, or action directors.

The winners of this award are generally older and are seniors in the industry.

There is no shortlist or anything like that, the winners are announced directly.

"Congratulations, Qian Litao!"

In fact, after watching the short film, we basically determined who the winner was.

The award-giving guests did not deliberately show off, and directly gave their blessings.

Qian Litao can also be regarded as an older generation of filmmakers.

He only officially announced his retirement a few years ago, but his name is familiar to many people here.

The other party is a prop master. In fact, when the development of Chinese movies was not perfect enough, the profession of prop master was not taken seriously.

Qian Litao is by far the best in the profession of Chinese prop master.

In the past, China's film technologies, especially special effects, were very different from those in the West.

For some shots, we either spent a lot of money to hire help from the West for special effects, or the quality of the final film was very poor.

Qian Litao used many self-developed props to greatly reduce the cost of shooting, and the effect was the same as many directors expected.

Later, Qian Litao simply opened his own movie prop company, specializing in wholesale or customized props for some film crews.

The other party's company is also developing very well, and the three major companies have cooperated with it. Even the "Ghost Blowing Lamp" filmed by Tongji Entertainment Yang Anran was also contacted by Qian Litao's company.

Everyone at the scene gave their own applause.

Qian Litao is actually a special presence at the Shanghai Film Festival, because many of the props he is responsible for are from genre films.

Although there are props for literary and artistic films, they are only a very small part.

Qian Litao is indeed special compared to others who are from the art film industry.

However, the setting and selection criteria of this award are just like this, and Qian Litao is also qualified, so there will not be many doubts.

After the award was awarded, the battle really began.

The first is the "Best Photography" award. There are a total of eight photographers shortlisted, each from eight films in this film festival.

In the end, both photographers from the crews Li Yuchang and Ning Jingshan were shortlisted, and the winner was Li Yuchang.

His work this time won him his first award at the Shanghai Film Festival.

Although he was not the one who won the award, his expression at this time was quite proud, and he looked at Ning Jingshan next to him from time to time.

Ning Jingshan is not as happy as before

After all, if you lose to someone you hate, your mood will definitely be affected.

But both of them knew that in fact, the big award was definitely not for Best Photography.

......

Next is the award for best screenwriter.

What makes Chen Jinyu and Liu Baofeng feel a little regretful is that Xu Ji was not shortlisted for the main competition unit this time.

Otherwise, in the eyes of the two of them, there should be no suspense about this award, and it should go to Xu Ji.

Among the eight shortlisted screenwriters, one named "Yao Qiming" won this award.

Yao Qiming looks young, probably in his early forties.

At the same time, he is also a well-known screenwriter in the industry, but he has never won any awards at film festivals.

This is the first time I have won the award in nearly 20 years of working in the industry.

I was so excited when I received the award that I wiped away tears while delivering my acceptance speech.

But no one laughs at such behavior.

After all, the gold content of the Shanghai Film Festival is still very high, and not just any screenwriter can get it.

What's more, many art film directors are actually screenwriters themselves. People like Yao Qiming who specialize in writing art film scripts have a harder time surviving than ordinary screenwriters.

After all, not everyone is Xu Ji, and they don’t even bother to present awards.

In fact, what Yao Qiming didn't know was that they invited Xu Ji as the guest presenter for this award.

But Xu Ji refused.

Liu Baofeng waited for a long time, and this time he could finally hear his name again.

Golden Goblet Award for Best Actor.

It is also the so-called best actor crown.

Of course, the influence of actors in literary and artistic films is naturally not as great as that of actors in genre films, who rely on box office and awards.

Even some people who have won the Golden Goblet Award at the Shanghai Film Festival are only first-line actors in the official list, but if you just look at this circle, there are still many people who identify with it.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Main competition unit, Golden Goblet Award for Best Actor, the finalists are..."

When Liu Baofeng saw the clip of "Hello! Mr. Tree" and his name appeared on the big screen, he was so excited.

On the contrary, Chen Jinyu on the side said:

"Oh, be mentally prepared."

"It seems that those who have won the media award will generally not be given the Golden Goblet Award by the jury."

Liu Baofeng didn't know about this, so he was stunned for a moment.

Then I heard the award presenter on stage say the name of the winning actor.

"Shanghai Film Festival, Golden Goblet Award for Best Actor, the winner is..."

""The Wilderness", Ao Sichen!"

Liu Baofeng suddenly lost.

But in fact, Chen Jinyu beside him was also a little disappointed.

After all, he also won the Best Director at the Media Awards, which means that he probably won’t win the Golden Goblet Award for Best Director this time.

......

"Hahahaha!"

Ning Jingshan laughed heartily.

"The Wilderness" is naturally the work he brought to the film festival this time.

I had always failed to achieve anything before, and even got a mocking look from Li Yuchang, who won the best photography award.

At this time, I finally won a heavyweight award.

I feel proud.

First he hugged his leading actor, then looked provocatively in the direction of Li Yuchang and raised his eyebrows at him.

"What's so magical!"

"Make it look like he won an award."

Li Yuchang complained softly.

In fact, he couldn’t bear to see his old enemy take the limelight.
