Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Director, Best Picture!
The six awards represent that there are still six golden statuettes waiting for everyone to share, and at this time, the atmosphere in the venue gradually became solemn.
The most important award naturally comes with the most solemn atmosphere!
The first award was awarded to the Best Supporting Actress. The finalists were Jin Yanling from "Underground Love". This is an actress from Taiwan. She is probably best known for "The War" starring Xie Tingfeng and Zhou Jilun. She is in it. Playing the role of the two's mother.
Cai Qin's "Underground Love", it's the Cai Qin who sings, like a drizzle of rain falling on my heart
Yang Xueyi's "Dream Man", the winner of Miss Hong Kong in 1983.
Li Dianxin's "Fire Dragon" and Li Dianlang's "Fire Dragon" are both the daughters of Li Hanxiang, the director of "Fire Dragon". Among them, Li Dianxin is also Liang Jiahui's ex-girlfriend. Liang Jiahui was able to star in the two movies "Under the Curtain" and "Burning the Old Summer Palace" because he followed Li Dianxin I went to visit my father and was photographed.
However, what happened to Liang Jiahui after filming "The Curtain" was known to the whole of Hong Kong. As a result, no actors from Hong Kong dared to participate in the movie "Fire Dragon", which was produced with mainland investment. Li Hanxiang had no choice but to recruit him. The two daughters made up the numbers.
In the end, this award was won by Jin Yanling from "Underground Love".
Wu Jianye could see a disapproving expression on Li Hanxiang's face not far away. Wu Jianye suddenly asked, "How many awards has the movie "Fire Dragon" been shortlisted for?"
Chen Chong whispered from the side, "The six awards are: Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Screenplay!"
Wu Jianye nodded, and now two of them have been awarded. Just like Wu Jianye's "The Last Emperor", it is still zero.
Soon the award for Best Supporting Actor was also awarded, and the winner was Qin Pei for "The Story of a Mad Man"!
As for Best Actress, a domestic actress was also nominated, namely Pan Hong, who had filmed Tangting Culture's "The Stubborn Master", and she was nominated for "Fire Dragon" filmed by Li Hanxiang.
But the award once again fell to a Taiwanese actress, Zhang Aijia for "The Favorite"!
At this time, Wu Jianye's premonition became stronger and stronger.
As for the Best Actor award, Chow Yun-fat has already won the Hong Kong Film Awards for "A Better Tomorrow", so naturally it won't be him this time. Also selected was Leung Ka-fai's "Fire Dragon".
As a result, the winner of this award was Hong Kong's first-generation comedy king Xu Guanwen's "Detective Chocolate"!
Then came the selection of the best director in which Wu Jianye participated.
"Old Wu, you'll be here soon, are you nervous?" Zhao Fei asked curiously.
Wu Jianye's expression became a little complicated, "If I was a little nervous just now, I'm gone now!"
Zhao Fei was slightly startled, "What's going on?"
"You'll know next!" Wu Jianye said in a deep voice.
The two guests on the stage, Hu Jinquan and Chu Yuan, are also the two most famous directors of the older generation in Hong Kong. They joked with each other for a while, and then took out the envelopes they had prepared, "I'm so nervous, it's coming soon. The award for Best Director has been announced, Chu Yuan, which one do you like the most for this year’s Best Director?”
Chu Yuan smiled and said, "Of course it is the director of "The Last Emperor" Wu Jianye. I have already watched this film. It is very wonderfully shot. It has both literary and commercial qualities. It is a rare masterpiece!"
Hu Jinquan laughed and said, "I am more optimistic about Li Heizi's "Fire Dragon". As a follow-up to "The Curtain", this film is actually similar to director Wu's "The Last Emperor", but he puts more perspective on the characters."
Put it on Pu Yi in his twilight years." Finally, Hu Jinquan also made a joke about his old rival, "I am in tears when I see him!"
"Haha, even if you say that, Li Heizi won't thank you!" Chu Yuan said with a smile.
"Huh, I'll thank him!" Hu Jinquan said proudly.
Then the two of them commented on several other shortlisted film directors, such as Guan Jinpeng.
Kwan Jin-peng is a director with a very unobtrusive directorial perspective. Later films such as "Ruan Ling Yu", "Rouge Button" and "Lan Yu" were all written by him. He highly praised Wu Baige's "A Better Tomorrow" and "The Bloody Heroes" films.
The feeling of 'comradeship' expressed in.
Claiming that this kind of close-minded brotherhood is more gay than gay movies
"Okay, let's start awarding awards. The directors in the audience must be waiting impatiently!" Chu Yuan said with a smile.
Hu Jinquan opened the envelope, his expression was slightly startled, and then he returned to his smile and said, "The winner of the 6th Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Director is Fang Yuping from "The Heart of the World"!"
Fang Yuping was the favorite director of the Hong Kong Academy before the appearance of the King of Sunglasses. He graduated from Baptist College and won the Hong Kong Film Awards for "Father and Son Love", "Half the Man" and "Beautiful Heart" respectively.
The 1st, 3rd and 6th Best Director!
Wu Jianye could obviously feel that the atmosphere of the people around him was a little low. In fact, it was not only Zhao Fei and others, but also Er Dongsheng, because Er Dongsheng's "The True Story of the Mad Man" was also nominated for this award!
"Have you known this for a long time?" Zhao Fei asked in a low voice.
Wu Jianye shook his head, "I just guessed it too!"
"Then the best film next." Zhao Fei also looked at Wu Jianye with obvious disappointment.
Wu Jianye "Don't think about it!"
Sure enough, as Wu Jianye said, the best picture fell to "The Story of a Mad Man", which made Er Dongsheng and others on the side jump excitedly.
No one thought that the first film directed by Er Dongsheng would win the Best Picture.
Wu Jianye smiled and applauded in congratulations.
The camera happened to capture Wu Jianye at this time.
As the live TV station for the Academy Awards, Wireless TV naturally broadcast the entire event live, and at this time, the audience in front of thousands of households in Xiangjiang TV also saw this scene.
"It is reported that Mainland director Wu Jianye's new film "The Last Emperor" cost US$21 million. "Raise the Red Lantern" directed by Wu Jianye also won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival, but this time it is obvious that Wu Jianye's
The director's career has been hit hard. Although we have not seen the movie "The Last Emperor" yet, a movie that can neither win awards nor satisfy the artistic quality of the movie, but is also a movie shot by a mainland director, can it satisfy us in Hong Kong?
The audience’s aesthetics?”
Fang Yihua was standing outside the studio at this time, showing a satisfied smile.
In fact, she didn't know whether Wu Jianye's "The Last Emperor" would win the award, so she prepared two plans, that is, if "The Last Emperor" won the award, TVB would insert commercials during this period and directly intercept Wu Jianye's movie.
Award-winning picture.
Don't think that TVB can't do something like this. Later, when ATV actress Paw Qijing won the Academy Award for Best Actress, TVB did this.
Now it's just a trick like this in advance.
And if Wu Jianye didn't win the award, it would be even simpler. Just like the previous speech, they had already prepared it.
Since Yaoguang Group acquired ATV last year, Wu Jianye has become a thorn in Fang Yihua's side. However, he has never found an opportunity to deal with him before. Now that he has this opportunity, Fang Yihua will naturally not let it go.
Although Wu Jianye was smiling in the venue, Zhao Fei, who was familiar with Wu Jianye, could see in Wu Jianye's eyes that Wu Jianye was angry!
"Old Wu, please be open-minded, maybe this is the judging standard of the Hong Kong film industry!" Zhao Fei comforted.
"Haha, judging criteria?" Wu Jianye sneered.
At this year's Academy Awards, only two films, "The Last Emperor" and "Fire Dragon", have every chance of being domestically produced.
Although "The Last Emperor" has investment from Fengge Entertainment, the director and many actors are all from the Mainland. Only one of them, Zun Lung, has some relationship with the Hong Kong film industry. After all, Zun Lung went to Hollywood in Hong Kong.
Although Li Hanxiang plays an important role in the movie "Fire Dragon" in Hong Kong, all the investment in this movie came from the mainland.
"The Last Emperor" received five nominations, and "Fire Dragon" received six nominations, for a total of eleven nominations, but not even a single nomination was received.
If the quality of the two movies is not enough, Wu Jianye has nothing to say. However, both movies are very good movies, and there are stories worth discussing.
The two brothers Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long walked over side by side. They also failed to win anything at this Academy Awards, but that was because they had no films nominated at all, so naturally they had no emotions. This time
I came here mainly to accept Yu Zheng's invitation to support the Academy Awards.
"Director Wu, this kind of thing is happening!" Hong Jinbao showed a helpless expression. He, who debuted early in Hong Kong, would naturally not think like Zhao Fei that this was just because of different appreciation standards.
As long as there is a winner or loser in the award ceremony, it is impossible to be absolutely fair. This is why some people always criticize the award ceremony as a cake-sharing act. However, there must be a limit to this kind of thing. Obviously, this time the Academy Awards
This practice has allowed some discerning people to see the root cause.
In the competition with "The Last Emperor" and "Fire Dragon", many Taiwanese artists won awards, but these two films failed to win any. It is obvious that the Academy considers the Taiwanese market to be more important. This is deliberate.
behavior to please Wanwan.
Wu Jianye still kept his smile at this time, "Brother Sanmao, I understand."
At this time, Zhou Runfa and Zhang Guoyi also came over: "Director Wu, it's nothing. I was nominated once before but didn't win. I'll just wait until I make a comeback next time!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Don't worry, my heart is not that fragile, it's just an Academy Award!"
Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long, Zhou Runfa and Zhang Guoyuan were all slightly startled. No one expected that Wu Jianye would say this, but then they understood that Wu Jianye had the capital to say this, not to mention that he had won the Venice Film Festival. The honor of the Golden Lion Award is his identity, and they really don't need to take this award so seriously. After all, in their opinion, Wu Jianye's main battlefield is still in the mainland.
Later, Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng also expressed their comfort to Wu Jianye, which made everyone on the sidelines feel a little embarrassed. After all, they won the best picture award. Instead of congratulating them, everyone gathered around Comfort Wu Jianye by his side.
It's like the movie "The Last Emperor" stole the award from "The Last Emperor".
The most important thing is that the movie "The Story of a Mad Man" was invested by Fengge Entertainment.
Wu Jianye naturally saw the somewhat embarrassed Er Dongsheng and others, smiled and patted Er Dongsheng on the shoulder and said, "Congratulations, Xiaobao, for being able to win the best picture award for his first time as a director. It seems that we at Fengge Entertainment I was lucky enough to pick up a director who won the best picture!"
Er Dongsheng "Wu Dao"
"Don't worry, I sincerely congratulate you!" Wu Jianye said.
"Director Wu, thank you for participating in the Academy Awards this time, but unfortunately "The Last Emperor" did not win the award this time. I can only express my deep regret for this!" Yu Zheng walked to Wu Jianye's side with a smile. said.
Yu Zheng has always maintained her neutral appearance. "The Last Emperor" did not win the award. She naturally knew it a long time ago. If Wu Jianye was just an ordinary director in the Mainland, she would not have come to tell Wu Jianye this in person. Yes, but Wu Jianye is the boss behind Fengge Entertainment after all.
She had also weighed the pros and cons of this matter, but in her opinion, the pros outweighed the cons. After all, the main ticket office for Xiangjiang movies is Wanwan. Only by appeasing Wanwan can we be able to Better enhance the influence of the Academy Awards throughout Southeast Asia.
And as compensation, didn't the Academy Awards also give the Best Picture award to "The Story of a Madman" invested by Fengge Entertainment?
This is also a compromise between the Academy Awards and Fengge Entertainment.
However, when facing Wu Jianye, she still habitually put Wu Jianye as a mainland director first, so when she spoke, she inevitably felt a little condescending.
Wu Jianye looked at Yu Zheng with a smile, "It's not a pity. After all, the award is not specially set for a certain person. Failure to win can only mean that the movie "The Last Emperor" does not meet the criteria for the Academy Awards."
Yu Zheng nodded with a smile. She was very satisfied with Wu Jianye's attitude. She thought Wu Jianye was a general person. When she was about to continue to encourage Wu Jianye, Wu Jianye's next words , but her expression changed.
"I just want to know what the judging criteria for the Academy Awards are?"
"this"
"Yes, I also want to know what the judging criteria of the Academy Awards are!" At this time, another person who was frustrated at this Academy Awards, Li Hanxiang, also came over.
Without waiting for Yu Zheng to answer, Wu Jianye smiled and said to Li Hanxiang, "Director Li, Fengge Entertainment will hold a celebration banquet for "The Story of Mad Man" later. I wonder if Director Li is interested in attending?"
Li Hanxiang's eyes lit up, then he laughed and said, "Haha, of course I'm interested!"
Yu Zheng stood aside, her heart really shocked. After the Academy Awards, a celebration banquet will be held. At that time, the selected and award-winning crew will participate. This is already an agreed thing. Now Wu Jianye unexpectedly
There is a separate celebration banquet for "The Legend of Madman", but what about the banquet for the Academy Awards?
At this time, Yu Zheng began to doubt for the first time whether her previous decision was right or wrong!
Wu Jianye glanced at Yu Zheng, thinking this was the end?
Ignoring Yu Zheng, Wu Jianye walked directly towards Zou Wenhuai who was about to leave the venue.
