Due to Kang Jianfei's time travel, "Seven Little Fortunes" and "Rouge", two award-winning films, did not appear at this year's Academy Awards.
The direct result is that Wang Jiawei and his director "Carmen" became the biggest winners.
In the first few editions of the Academy Awards, the tastes of the judges were mainly biased towards literary and artistic films. Later, the commercial value of the film was also taken into consideration. Some films that were successful at the box office but lacked artistic quality were often nominated. "Carmen" was originally a film
A gangster gangster movie, Wang Jiawei gave it a literary and artistic feel. What's even more rare is that this movie sold well at the box office.
It was well-received and well-received, and without the competition from the two blockbusters "Seven Little Fortunes" and "Rouge", "Carmen" naturally swept the trophies at the Academy Awards.
Five trophies for Best Film Score, Best Art Direction, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director, and Best Picture were collected. Director Wang Jiawei and Deng Guangrong of Yingzhijie Company were both happy.
Deng Guangrong held the statuette for Best Picture and gave a full six-minute acceptance speech before returning to his seat still unfulfilled.
It is worth mentioning that the person who won the Best Supporting Actor for "Carmen" was none other than the singer from another time and space, Jacky Cheung. He has been in the Hong Kong music scene for 5 years and has sold two quadruple platinum albums.
The company he works for is PolyGram, a competitor of Pop Records.
However, Jack Cheung started to decline the year before last. Last year, his album "Last Night in the Dream" only sold a few thousand copies, and he was not included in major song charts and awards. There are many singers under PolyGram.
, and needed to compete with Fengxing Records and Huaxing Records, and Zhang Xueyou's contract was about to expire. PolyGram almost gave up on Zhang Xueyou and invested its limited resources into several other first-line singers.
When Jacky Cheung was at his most depressed last year, he spent all day in bars in Lan Kwai Fong, and even drank on the set during filming. Now that he is holding the trophy for Best Supporting Actor in his hand, Jacky Cheung cannot be happy. He and
PolyGram's record contract is about to expire, and now I can't find a record company to sign it.
It's not that no record company is willing to sign him, but that the conditions don't meet Zhang Xueyou's requirements. How could he, a singer who has two 4-platinum albums abroad and held 6 concerts in the Coliseum, agree to sign an ordinary singer contract with a record company?
Winning Best Supporting Actor now is of no use, it will not help him make a comeback in the music industry. Winning Best Actor would be almost the same.
The camera was focused on the creative team of "Carmen in Mong Kok". Zhang Xueyou, who was sitting next to Zhang Manyu, forced out an ugly smile, but what he was thinking about was whether he should put down his wealth and find a record company to sign a prostitution contract.
Watching the winners come down one after another with their trophies, Kang Jianfei did not feel disappointed. Last year, he filmed "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" and went straight to the box office. It was normal not to win the award.
However, it was Zhang Xueyou who had received the trophy before and stepped down, which caught Kang Jianfei's attention.
Although Fengxing Records has recruited many popular singers in recent years, such as Anita Mui, Leslie Cheung, Chow Huimin, Byond, etc., it is still far from being the only one company. Singers such as Alan Tam, Hacken Lee, Priscilla Chan, and Michelle Ye, who have become popular in recent years,
None of them are signed to Pop Records, especially the competition between Alan Tam and Leslie Cheung, Priscilla Chan and Anita Mui, has reached a fever pitch, and there have been conflicts and fights between each other's fans.
The fight between Zhou Huimin and Ye Yunyi has gradually been stirred up by the media this year, and the parties involved are simply being pushed forward by public opinion.
Kang Jianfei took out his mobile phone, dialed Zhang Guozhong's number and asked, "Azhong, does Zhang Xueyou sign with any company now?"
"Zhang Xueyou? Wait, let me ask." Zhang Guozhong shouted on the other end of the phone, "Mary, please check Zhang Xueyou's information."
The award ceremony was almost over, and during the final song and dance performance, Zhang Guozhong finally replied: "Mr. Kang, I asked a friend of PolyGram to inquire. The contract between Zhang Xueyou and PolyGram expires in two months.
The terms for contract renewal have not been agreed upon yet.”
"Communicate with Fengxing Records and sign all Zhang Xueyou's management and recording contracts." Kang Jianfei gave the order directly without any explanation, and cut off the phone as he spoke.
At this time, there was warm applause in the awards hall, and the entire awards ceremony was over.
People in the audience were leaving one after another. Zhou Huimin and Kang Jianfei also stood up. She asked: "I heard you just now said that you wanted to sign Zhang Xueyou?"
"Yeah, what's the problem?" Kang Jianfei asked.
Vivian Chow explained: "I heard that Jacky Cheung and Priscilla Chan are good friends, very, very good friends. If Jacky Cheung joins Pop Records, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get along with Aunt Mei."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "If Zhang Xueyou can't handle this relationship, then he should stop being in the entertainment industry."
This year's Academy Awards ceremony was held grandly, but the Academy Awards banquet was cancelled. As soon as the awards ceremony was over, everyone went back to their homes to take care of their own business.
The headlines of the entertainment pages of major newspapers the next day were photos of Deng Guangrong and Wong Kar-wai holding the trophy.
Of course, Kang Jianfei's reports also occupied a large space on the second page, but they were all scandals. All the films produced by DreamWorks this year combined only won 4 trophies at the Academy Awards, not including "Mong Kok".
The film "Carmen" has won many awards.
There were only 16 awards in the Hong Kong Film Awards this year, and the combined total of Best of Shadows and DreamWorks won 9 of them. Therefore, Golden Harvest, Vientiane, and Debao were not much better, and they only won two or three awards.
.
Deng Guangrong and Wong Kar-wai are naturally famous, and even the overseas distribution rights of "Carmen in Mong Kok" were sold at a good price. The media that slandered Kang Jianfei found a good opportunity this time, and happily satirized Kang Jianfei.
"It's hard to say whether Kang Jianfei has exhausted his talents. But the Kangda director, who won awards in previous years, only got a small technical award this time. The scandal about his engagement with Rosamund Kwan was filled with entertainment pages.
In the news, did he pick up girls so much that he forgot how to shoot a movie..." A film critic wrote such a straightforward criticism in the movie section of "Sing Tao Daily".
Kang Jianfei didn't bother to pay attention to such comments. He insisted that the director who had just made a movie with a box office of 40 million yuan could not make movies. Only people with broken brains would believe this nonsense.
Guan Zhilin's revelations gave Kang Jianfei even more headaches. The scandals between him and several female stars were once again stirred up by the media. This time, the head of the yu house Zhou Huimin was also dragged into the water.
…
He Chaoqiong was squatting on the ground and was playing with cars with his son. Lan Qiongying came over angrily and handed a newspaper to her daughter: "Arqiong, see for yourself, this Kang Jianfei is getting more and more outrageous, and you can't get entangled with him."
There are so many stars that I can’t even count them with one slap.”
"I know." He Chaoqiong took the newspaper and threw it on the coffee table and asked, "Mom, at what age do you think A Xin should go to kindergarten?"
"Now you are still thinking about your child's schooling. Your marriage to Kang Jianfei has been delayed for a long time, and your father doesn't even want to mention you anymore." Lan Qiongying said angrily.
"It seems that you and daddy arranged this together." He Chaoqiong pushed back.
Lan Qiongying said: "You have the nerve to mention that Kang Jianfei agreed to marry you at the beginning, but if you still refuse to agree even though you are pregnant with the child, otherwise you will have to wait until now to get the marriage certificate."
He Chaoqiong sighed: "Didn't A Fei agree to get married?"
"I'll call him to urge him!" Lan Qiongying said and walked towards the phone.
He Chaoqiong sighed helplessly. Kang Jianfei's scandal had made her upset, and she was no longer interested in getting a marriage certificate.
Kang Jianfei was harassed by reporters early in the morning. After finally calming down for a while, Lan Qiongying called his personal number again and asked him to choose a date to go to Macau to obtain a marriage certificate. This was what Kang Jianfei had promised He Chaoqiong last year.
The matter has been postponed until now, and now it is obvious that it can no longer be postponed.
Anyway, he was annoyed by the paparazzi even when he stayed in Hong Kong. Not long after he left home, the paparazzi followed him. Kang Jianfei simply put down the work at hand and accompanied He Chaoqiong to Portugal for a few days. After registering the marriage, he returned to Hong Kong. This marriage certificate is in
Both Hong Kong and Macau are legally recognized.
The plane was about to land at the airport. He Chaoqiong looked at the sea below through the porthole window and said: "We have been going to Portugal for almost a week this time. Ah Xin must be crying for his mother at home."
"Why aren't you crying for dad?" Kang Jianfei asked with a smile.
He Chaoqiong rolled her eyes at him: "My son can see you once or twice a month. It is because he has a good memory that he has not forgotten you. You still think that your son will cry and look for his father?"
Kang Jianfei was asking for trouble and could only apologize with a smile: "It's my fault. I will try my best to spend more time with you mother and son in the future."
A moment later, Kang Jianfei and He Chaoqiong walked out of the premium cabin, followed by several people carrying luggage bags.
In order not to attract attention, both Kang Jianfei and He Chaoqiong wore sunglasses and hats. As a result, they were surrounded by a group of reporters as soon as they arrived at the airport lobby.
"Mr. Kang, I heard that you and Miss He have secretly married. Are you going to Europe for your honeymoon this time?"
"Ms. He, what do you think of the marriage between Mr. Kang and Miss Rosamund Kwan?"
"..."
Kang Jianfei was walking out chatting and laughing with He Chaoqiong. After hearing the reporter's question, his expression turned cold for a moment. He turned around and asked He Chaoqiong: "What's going on?"
It is common to be blocked by reporters at the airport. It may be because the paparazzi who are following other celebrities are accidentally hitting you. But after being blocked, you go straight to the topic and ask about marriage and honeymoon. This is someone deliberately leaking the news.
He Chaoqiong felt chilled by the look in Kang Jianfei's eyes, and quickly explained in a low voice: "It's none of my business, it's probably a reporter sent by my mother."
This is crazy...
If you walk a lot at night, you will inevitably bump into ghosts. Since Kang Jianfei is playing with flowers, don't think about the good thing of not letting any leaves touch you.
Kang Jianfei was tricked by his mother-in-law, so he could only walk out sulkingly, chatting with reporters about the new film along the way: "Dear journalist friends, the press conference for "Tomb Robbers" will be held on time at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon at Tseung Kwan O Studios.
I hope everyone can come and support me then!”
In order to change the topic, Kang Jianfei had to promote "Tomb Raiders" in advance. r1152
