Chapter 114 Is the beginning of an era? Ten thousand words!)
The lights are bright at the Hong Kong Film Awards Gala.
Feng Kai and the crew of "The Bottom of the Mine" were sitting in their seats. Everyone couldn't help but look like they had never seen the world, and kept looking around. Chen Shuangbao and Liu Tingting looked excitedly at the movie stars around them.
As they walked by, their bodies kept shaking and their hearts almost jumped out of their chests...
Feng Kai was also very excited.
However, on the surface, he acted very calm, sitting in the main seat and watching the award ceremony without saying a word.
He has been to the Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan and won the Golden Horse Award for Best New Director.
At that time, he was only twenty-five years old, only one or two years older than Zhou Yang now...
He was so high-spirited that year. He stood on the stage and looked down at the big bosses below, listening to waves of encouraging applause from them. His emotions were so agitated that he felt like he was as angry as a tiger swallowing thousands of miles.
But now, he felt as if he was in another world, as if he had been in a dream.
Even after sitting here and reviewing the plot of his award-winning movie "Shocking Sea" again, he actually felt like he couldn't watch it anymore.
The emotions of the movie are too fake, the tone is too frivolous, and the emotional rendering is unsatisfactory!
He even wondered why he won the award in the first place, and whether the company behind him had used a back door for him.
perhaps……
Everyone is growing up.
Moreover, the New Director Award itself is given to new directors.
In bursts of music.
Feng Kai saw that the promotional advertisement for "Under the Mine" was placed in the most eye-catching place on both sides of the aisles at the award ceremony, alongside "Hero"!
It was the first time that artistic films and commercial films were juxtaposed in the same position in Hong Kong.
He saw the very conspicuous words "Assistant Director Feng Kai". He didn't know why, but it happened to be in the same position as the other director Shen Changwei...
He felt that his vanity had been greatly satisfied again!
Danding, Danding, I must be Danding!
He kept reminding himself.
However, it is of no use...
His whole body was almost in a state of ecstasy, and his soul was flying.
Especially when he thought about how before the opening ceremony, Shen Changwei came over to say hello to him, patted his shoulders and said a few words, "You will be formidable in life," the fluttering feeling became even more uncontrollable.
Their "Mineral Bottom" is on the same level as Shen Changwei's "Hero"!
"Under the Mine" is a piece of history in the Chinese film industry!
And he is the assistant director of "Under the Mine" and one of the participants and creators of history.
Although it is a pity that he did not participate in the glory of Berlin, this feeling of regaining something lost is really good.
And, more importantly, he knew the significance of mainland films coming to Hong Kong Island to participate in the Academy Awards Film Festival...
This is another cut-off point in the history of the Chinese film industry. It is almost publicly stated that Hong Kong Island and the mainland will be closely connected through movies.
As one of the witnesses...
Feng Kai felt very honored.
Of course, there are some regrets.
Zhou Yang himself was not able to come to the Academy Awards ceremony, but he went to the Golden Melody Awards...
perhaps……
Is it his affirmation of me?
Feng Kai was naturally moved, but he was also uneasy because he was not sure whether the individual award that could have been awarded to "Under the Mine" would be awarded to someone else because he did not come.
The world itself is like this...
You don't come here to support me, but I give you an award. Am I a bitch or something?
Academy Award!
This is one of the three major awards in the Chinese film industry. What do you think is the pheasant award on the roadside?
To whom is the award not awarded?
You don’t want others to rush you, okay?
That kind of worry made Feng Kai fall from the void to the ground, and then he began to worry about gains and losses...
Especially when it was announced on stage that "Hero" was among the nominees for Best Screenplay, Feng Kai's worry became even more serious.
That time in Berlin, "Hero" failed.
But the market has proven that "Hero" is indeed a good movie. In terms of reputation and reviews, as well as the pictures and artistry, it is more than one and a half stars better than that "Warring States"!
How about the pride of the Chinese film industry!
Moreover, the screenwriter of "Hero", Ren He, is a screenwriter with a very high artistic level. Almost every film can be shortlisted for major Chinese-language nominations...
The Academy Award for Best Screenplay goes to the screenwriter of "Hero", Ren He is so reasonable.
Feng Kai's heart suddenly sank.
Just at this time……
"The winner of the best screenplay, "The Mine", Zhou Yang! Congratulations to Mr. Zhou Yang..."
The light shone on Feng Kai. Feng Kai looked at the camera blankly and stood up subconsciously.
Thunderous applause.
All attention.
However, he glanced at the direction of the "Heroes" crew in disbelief...
Actually won an award?
Zhou Yang didn't come over, but the Academy Awards actually awarded this award to him?
This was beyond his expectation!
He walked onto the stage step by step, and then received the award from the presenter Huang Jiacheng.
"There is a small episode..."
"We at the Academy Awards have always adhered to the principles of fairness, justice and openness, and will not change any hidden rules in the awards..."
"Director Zhou didn't come to the scene because of something else, but his acceptance speech is indispensable..."
"Come on, let's watch the big screen. We had a special interaction with the Golden Melody Awards in Taiwan. Let's see what Director Zhou at the Golden Melody Awards is doing now..."
"Oh, okay, I saw it. Let's first congratulate Director Zhou on winning the Golden Melody Award..."
The host is a very famous comedian in Hong Kong. His name is Zhang Lianghui.
At this moment, he pointed at the screen, and the screen instantly lit up with a signal coming from not far away...
Then, the audience at the Academy Awards were pleasantly surprised to see Zhou Yang holding the trophy for Best Lyricist on the stage of the Golden Melody Awards, looking around blankly...
this moment!
The media was so excited.
Damn it, tomorrow’s front page headlines and popularity will be there.
The history of the Golden Melody Awards, the history of the Academy Awards, this is the first time such an occasion has happened!
……………………
"The winner of the best screenplay, "The Mine", Zhou Yang! Congratulations to Mr. Zhou Yang..."
When the host of the Academy Awards said this, the Golden Melody Awards went into an uproar.
The reporters were snapping pictures on the big screen like crazy. On the big screen in front of them, the ceremony of the Academy Awards was incredibly transmitted...
"If this kid is unstoppable, the Academy Awards will really give him an award."
Song Lian, who was originally smiling and very calm, was slightly stunned after seeing this scene.
Then he smiled bitterly, feeling both emotional and sad.
That was the unprecedented first interaction in the history of the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards and the Hong Kong Island Awards...
But it is undeniable that this wave of popularity is almost explosive. Not only the Golden Melody Awards can be bombarded, but the Academy Awards can also be bombarded.
Both units can use this to promote their fairness, justice, and tolerance, and then demonstrate their authority.
Cai Lin's throat felt like something was blocked. She wanted to take a breath, but she couldn't.
The camera is no longer available to her. Tomorrow's plagiarism incident may be suppressed by this heavy news...
"Sister, I think it's possible that his time is coming..."
Cai Lin's mind unconsciously flashed back to what her agent Xu Mei had said to her.
Crow's mouth!
A complete crow’s mouth!
This time when I go back, I will fire her!
Sitting in her seat, Cai Lin had nowhere to vent her anger. The first thing that came to her mind was her agent Xu Mei.
Is his time coming?
How can it be!
What a joke!
He is just a fledgling boy. No matter how high he is praised now, he will be beaten badly in the future!
Cai Lin kept echoing this sentence in her heart, echoing it over and over again, but the feeling of being so blocked that she couldn't breathe became even stronger!
……………………
Brilliant.
All attention.
Zhou Yang felt an indescribable sense of fragmentation on the stage.
"Thank you to all the seniors at the Golden Melody Awards, and even more so to all the seniors at the Academy Awards, for giving me the opportunity to stand on this stage and give two acceptance speeches..."
Grass!
Why does it sound more and more pretentious the more you talk?
Zhou Yang felt that this feeling was very painful, but he felt that what he was telling was the truth.
The reporters in the audience tried their best to take pictures of his face, wanting to take pictures of the hairs in his nose carefully!
"This journey along the way has not been easy for everyone. I would like to thank Director Feng Kai. I was once in Berlin. For some reasons, I couldn't name him, but now, I sincerely thank Director Feng..."
"At the same time, I would also like to thank everyone on the crew, friends from the media, director Wang, and..."
"I'm really happy to win this award..."
"..."
The staff backstage at the Golden Melody Awards kept hinting at Zhou Yang on the stage, hinting that they hoped he would be more affectionate, talk more, and let the reporters take more pictures...
Even a distant memo helped Zhou Yang prepare his acceptance speech.
Obviously, this was premeditated. Perhaps it started when Zhou Yang walked in.
After reading it, Zhou Yang felt numb.
He was suddenly in a bad state, and he really didn't know what to say other than a bunch of thanks.
There are feelings, but Zhou Yang is not so exaggerated as to be so excited that he sheds tears.
It has passed……
After Balabala spoke for a long time, Zhou Yang bowed deeply to the big screen behind him, and then heard thunderous applause from both sides.
He didn't cry...
On the other side of the screen, Feng Kai was crying so hard that he couldn't hold back his emotions in front of the camera.
The hand holding the Best Screenplay Award trophy was shaking constantly.
Wait until it's over...
He still didn't feel relieved.
After Zhou Yang finished speaking, he walked off the stage step by step under the envious eyes of everyone.
When the camera cut back to this side from the other side, the director gave a brief close-up of his back.
Behind the scenes...
Under the shining lights, somehow, there is a feeling of coming from the brilliance.
Reporter Chen Yan captured this scene.
After taking the photo, looking at the back in the photo, she suddenly thought of a very shocking title.
"The Beginning of an Era?"
Then suddenly I felt that the title was a bit big, inappropriate, awkward, and lacked some flavor no matter how I wrote it...
Zhou Yang's qualifications are still a bit shallow and he has no background. Writing this way will make the audience feel embarrassed!
or…
"The person who comes out of the bright light?"
It's a bit hard to pronounce...
No, no!
never mind……
Let’s wait until the next award for Best Mandarin Album Producer is awarded.
This award…
The opponent is Song Lian...
The Golden Melody Award praises Zhou Yang so much and gives him enough cards, so Zhou Yang shouldn't be able to win this award, right?
Could it be that he was really allowed to kill the gods tonight?
