Of course, Li Manyu understood the meaning of Chen Feng's words and couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that you are very confident that our film will win awards abroad. However, our country's films have not been among the three major European films in the past ten years.
Have you won any important awards at the film festival? It seems that there is even only one nomination for several important awards. This shows the decline of our country's films in recent years. There are issues with the quality of the film itself, as well as some political issues.
.So, I am not as confident as you."
Chen Feng said with a smile: "In my opinion, the main issue is the quality of the film itself. If the quality of the film is good, these film festivals have no reason to deliberately prevent you from being nominated and winning awards. Relatively speaking, these film festivals
The awards are relatively fair. There are definitely some political factors, but the proportion will not be large. Because these film festivals pursue credibility and commercial interests. If their credibility is gone, the commercial value and interests will be greatly affected.
Under normal circumstances, they will not tarnish their own brands. But our film is of very good quality and has now gained recognition and appreciation from the public not only at home, but also abroad. The judges of those film festivals will not think so.
Turn a blind eye.”
After Li Manyu thought for a while, she nodded and said: "Maybe you are right. I want to give us more confidence in this movie."
Chen Feng smiled confidently and said: "Anyway, we are already the winners now. So, you don't need to worry too much about whether you can win the award. Besides, in my eyes, the gold content of the domestic Golden Bull Award is really not as good as the three major foreign movies.
The value of festival awards.”
This is indeed a fact. Although the Golden Bull Award has always been the most authoritative and valuable film award in China, there was really not much fairness a few years ago. Looking at the films that won awards in previous years, most of them were not blockbusters.
movies, but some movies with main themes or movies with official backgrounds.
To put it simply, those commercial films that do not have sufficient financial background and official background will basically not win awards. And those literary and artistic films that do not have sufficient background will basically not win awards, even if the literary and artistic film is well received at home and abroad.
It was well received. But it just couldn't win the Golden Bull Award.
The most famous one is a film that was nominated for Best Picture at the Venice International Film Festival a few years ago, because it is a film about the lives of small people at the bottom of society and reveals some of the dark sides of society. Although it has not been banned in the Tang Dynasty,
aired, but failed to win a single film award.
As a result, the fairness of this award has of course been widely questioned by the public and the outside world. The public and most of the media have completely lost interest in paying attention to the Golden Bull Award. The public no longer cares, and the media does not report much. Even some
Even the winning filmmakers didn’t bother to accept their awards.
Naturally, this award slowly lost its value. So, after bottoming out and learning from the pain, a few years ago, this award was established to adapt to the rapidly developing domestic film industry and to enhance the status of its own brand in the minds of the public.
and value, a series of reforms were carried out. Coupled with the strong support of relevant national departments, the brand value of this award slowly increased, and it was gradually accepted by the public and filmmakers, becoming more prestigious.
Especially in the past two years, the Golden Bull Awards ceremony has become more and more grand, and more and more celebrities have come to participate. Therefore, the major media and the public have naturally paid more and more attention to it.
For example, this time the Golden Bull Awards basically invited all the domestic stars, and it was held in the newly built Grand Theater in Linzhou City two years ago, which can accommodate more than 3,000 people.
Moreover, the local government of Linzhou also actively cooperated with the publicity and promoted it on major TV stations more than a month in advance. This can be regarded as a disguised promotion of Linzhou.
Another point is that Chen Feng, now the country's top-grossing director, is from Linzhou. Therefore, he has a very suitable gimmick. If Chen Feng wins the Golden Bull Award this time, it will undoubtedly be a good story.
In her heart, Li Manyu believed that it was almost certain that Chen Feng would win the award. Not to mention that the film "Sweet Honey" itself was of very good quality, just because of the millions of people in Linzhou City, the organizer would give Chen Feng an award.
, and it can only be a grand prize. Otherwise, if you held the award ceremony in Linzhou this time and didn't award it to a Linzhou-born director and actor like Chen Feng, wouldn't it be a slap in the face to millions of Linzhou people?
Of course, Li Manyu understood the meaning of Chen Feng's words and couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that you are very confident that our film will win awards abroad. However, our country's films have not been among the three major European films in the past ten years.
