After the preview that day, International Chapter's fame exploded.
This is certainly the result of Xingguang's deliberate publicity, but also the praise of various media and professionals.
No way, her performance in "Dragon Inn" was so dazzling.
Everyone could foresee that a new top acting star has emerged.
At least in recent years, I haven't seen anyone who can compare with her.
International Chapter's reputation has begun to transition from a newcomer to a top actor, and I believe that it won't be long before he will be promoted to a superstar.
The next day, the much-anticipated first China Film Awards ceremony officially began.
The stage was set up on the beach, and the red carpet was a hundred meters long.
The sunset, waves, white clouds, and warm wind create a beautiful scene that complements the grand event.
Countless tourists gathered on the beach and crowded on both sides of the red carpet, waiting to see the stars appear.
He Min and Xie Zhi are here again to act as red carpet hosts.
Groups of guests filed in, making the entire ceremony extraordinarily gorgeous.
There are top stars, big names in the industry, and overseas stars. In terms of lineup, the first China Film Awards far exceeds all previous major awards ceremonies.
As usual, Xiao Qian did not walk on the red carpet, but went directly to the backstage.
Liang Jiahui joined hands with Li Bingbing and International Chapter to appear together, causing a great sensation.
What is most confusing to passers-by is that the star that attracts the most attention from reporters and media is not Liang Jiahui, but the two young newcomers next to him.
These two actresses are pretty, but do they have any outstanding achievements?
This is caused by information asymmetry.
In the eyes of the public, Li Bingbing and Jiuji Zhang are still newcomers. However, within the industry, their potential has already been clearly seen.
At eight o'clock in the evening, with the last glow of the sky, the award ceremony officially began.
In any award ceremony organized by Xiao Qian, the setting of awards is always concise, professional and comprehensive.
Xiao Qian made a detailed classification of the awards by referring to the advantages of many award ceremonies in previous and present lives.
For example, the most criticized Best Art Award was canceled at his suggestion. Instead, there were three awards including Best Makeup Award, Best Costume Award, and Best Props Award.
In China, people always talk about persuasion and persuasion, but they are always lumped together. But in fact, these are three completely different tasks, and they all play a very important role.
However, China does not attach much importance to these technical categories and lacks sufficient respect.
But if you want to make a good movie, persuasion is definitely an indispensable part.
Xiao Qian wants to use this method to promote the domestic film industry to become more professional.
"Shaolin Temple" won all three awards for serving Daohua.
There is no way, in such awards, costume dramas always take a huge advantage.
In addition to being more docile, the music awards have also been carefully divided into two awards: Best Original Music Award and Best Film Interlude Award, giving enough respect to film musicians.
Originally, everyone thought that the winner of these two awards must be Xiao Qian.
But as soon as the results were announced, the whole place was in an uproar.
The winner of the Best Original Music Award was the theme song of the same name from the Hong Kong movie "Star Wish", while the winner of the Best Movie Interlude was Zhang Qianyi's "Yixi Dolma".
Jin Peida, the producer of "Star Wishes" appeared on the stage with an excited face, walking with a wave of excitement. Obviously he did not expect that he would win the award for Best Original Music from Xiao Qian.
On the contrary, Xiao Qian was very indifferent and sent him heartfelt congratulations.
Frankly speaking, the two songs in "Shaolin Temple" are good, but their quality is not unrivaled.
It's normal that I didn't win any prize.
But while waiting for "Dragon Inn", Xiao Qian didn't believe anyone could compete with her.
With the surprise at the music awards, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became heated.
Originally, many people thought that participating in this film award was all about running with them. All they had to do was sit there and watch the stars swarming them all.
But I didn’t expect that the China Film Awards would really be judged from many aspects such as art, quality, box office, impact, technology, etc.
Since it’s not just about box office and popularity, doesn’t it mean that everyone has a chance?
Sure enough, the subsequent Best New Actor Award was won by Zhang Baizhi, the fairy who was still young at that time.
At that time, she was really full of fairy spirit, and she was the perfect goddess in the minds of many people. If not for what happened later, her achievements might have been limitless.
It's a pity that the fairy is just her appearance. In real life, she is just an ordinary girl.
Starlight lost the Best Newcomer Award again, making everyone restless and wondering if Starlight is really doing good deeds?
It is a pity that the following technical awards such as Best Action Design, Best Editing, Best Cinematography, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Effects, Best Original Screenplay, etc. all fell to the stars.
People who were looking at the starlight came to the stage to receive the award in an endless stream. Other people could not say anything except sighing.
For these technical awards, commercial blockbusters are naturally extremely competitive. It is normal for domestic low-budget films to not be able to compete.
But when it comes to the final major awards, Starlight is no longer competitive.
The Best Supporting Actress award went to Chen Jin for "The Last Day", and the Best Supporting Actor award went to Lei Ming for "Life and Death".
The Best Actress award was an upset and was snatched away by Luo Lan, a veteran actress from the Hong Kong movie "Breaking Detective", but she had to be admired.
As a very well-known veteran actor, Luo Lan has been in the industry for decades and has superb acting skills. This time, her performance in "Explosion Detective" is even more superb.
Compared with her, the other candidates are uncompetitive.
Many people originally thought that Yang Zhen would win the Best Actor Award, which is also the Best Actor Award. However, it was once again upset, creating the biggest surprise at this year's film awards.
Liu Jinhua, the leading actor of the Hong Kong movie "Dark War", became the first Best Actor of the China Film Awards with his stunning performance.
But when everyone thinks about it carefully, they feel that it is not surprising that Yang Zhen did not win the award.
Although "Shaolin Temple" is very good, it is overall good. In terms of pure acting skills, Yang Zhen does not have any advantages. On the contrary, the wonderful action scenes in the film overshadow his acting skills.
Hong Kong is very excited to win Best Actor and Best Actress in a row. At the same time, it also has a heightened recognition of mainland China, and it has truly begun to treat the two places as a whole.
Sometimes, that's what identity feels like.
We cannot deliberately emphasize the Mainland and Hong Kong and Taiwan, and there is no need to deliberately create differences in certain aspects. As long as we treat each other equally and allow everyone to have a harmonious and comfortable environment, then the sense of identity will gradually be consolidated.
Is there anything fishy between Liu Jinhua's Best Actor and Luo Lan's Best Actress?
Apparently not.
Among the films of the same period, the performances of these two are visibly better. So it is appropriate to give them the award.
The Best Director Award fell to Chen Guoxing of "The Big Brother", and Ning Han missed out on the award.
This is enough to show that although commercial blockbusters can achieve high box office, they really do not have an advantage in the selection of the artistic field.
Even Xiao Qian, who does not discriminate against commercial films, would not award the Best Director Award to Ning Han.
Because in terms of overall shooting skills and the concept of the film, Ning Han is not as good as others.
But in the end, the best screenwriter and best film were none other than "Shaolin Temple".
The plot of "Shaolin Temple" has ups and downs, compact structure, novel content, and the plot is intricate and fascinating. It deserves to win the best screenplay.
As for the best movie, with a box office of more than 300 million, who can compete with it?
The best director and best actor can be selected from an artistic perspective, but the best movie must be based on the opinions of the audience.
Many award shows have this problem, always awarding the best picture to something that the audience has no idea about.
Seeing the winners, the public had questions on their faces.
How come a movie I have never heard of is the best movie?
You co-writers are not in the same world as us, the public, right?
Historically, the Academy Awards in the same year made such a mistake and awarded the best film to "A Thousand Words". As a result, the audience was ignorant and questioned.
The Golden Rooster Award was even more cunning. It was awarded directly to three films, and the pork was properly divided, which was even more unflattering.
At this point, all awards for the first China Film Awards have been announced.
The industry, media, and the public were all very satisfied and praised the award ceremony for being a good one.
The industry praised the Film Awards for achieving a balance between business and art and giving filmmakers the motivation to survive and develop. The awards are well-deserved.
The media praised the Film Awards for not having superstitious authority, and that the awards were based entirely on facts and that each award could withstand the test.
Regions such as Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, which participated in the awards ceremony for the first time, were also satisfied.
The three awards of Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Newcomer are enough to prove the excellence of film talents from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.
The public is very satisfied that there is no pork distribution in the film awards. Although there are some controversies, they are all acceptable.
Li Jianguo, who was far away in Beijing, immediately received reports and comments about the film awards. After reading them, he breathed a sigh of relief.
After this difficulty was overcome, the pressure on him was indeed relieved a lot.
