Chapter 312 There is a power called the Year of Mountains and Rivers (two in one)
There are not many film and television awards in China, but there are more than a dozen here and there.
But the most valuable awards are the Golden Dragon and Golden Phoenix that are most recognized by the industry, the media and the public.
Among them, since it is generally believed that the artistic quality of movies is higher than that of TV series, naturally, the Golden Dragon Award, the highest film award, is slightly more important than the Golden Phoenix Award, the highest award for TV series.
In terms of actor awards, the status of Best Actor and Best Actress in Golden Dragon is definitely higher than that of Best Actor and Best Actress in Golden Phoenix. The same is true for Best Supporting Actor and New Female Supporting Actress.
Behind-the-scenes awards such as best director, screenwriter, photography, etc., the Golden Dragon Award also won all-around awards.
For many behind-the-scenes practitioners, the sign of becoming a top player in the industry is to win the Golden Dragon. In contrast, although the Golden Phoenix Award is also very honorable, in the end, no Golden Dragon Award can be the final word.
Of course, you have to win several golden phoenixes like Zuo Le, using quantity to offset quality, and everyone will recognize your status.
As for the best film with the highest gold content among the many awards of the Golden Dragon Award, it is a major event in the Chinese film industry every year.
The best movie of the year, it is no exaggeration to say, can directly make a new director become a god and become a famous director in the industry.
In comparison, among the top ten TV dramas of the year at the Golden Phoenix Awards, although the cake is divided more evenly and everyone is happy, there are rarely any awards disputes.
But it also weakens the competitive intensity and influence of this award, making it more like a group of people lining up to share the prize.
As for the Golden Dragon Award, several films compete fiercely for it every year. Although controversy and doubt often arise, it also increases the topical influence of this award.
Every year at the Golden Dragon Awards, the three awards of Best Film and Best Actor and Best Actress attract the most attention...
To put it bluntly, for awards, what everyone sees is the fierce competition among everyone. The finalists are best beaten to death, fighting with swords and swords, and in the end there are regrets, surprises, and even twists.
Only in this way will the audience enjoy watching it.
The awards next to the Golden Phoenix Awards are okay, most of them are suspenseful, but for these top ten TV dramas, people can often estimate more than half of them before the awards are given, so there is really no sense of expectation.
This has also led to many people calling for the Golden Phoenix Awards to learn from the Golden Dragon Awards and change the top ten dramas into the best TV series of the year to enhance the gold content and intensity of this award.
Unfortunately, the top ten TV dramas are very involved, covering too many interest chains, and have been established for many years. The most scientific and objective selection system has already been established. It affects the whole body, and it cannot be changed by simply changing it.
It’s not that Mr. Chen Xi, who had a high prestige at the time, didn’t see this shortcoming, but he didn’t dare to do anything about it.
With his prestige as an old man, there is nothing he can do, and with the current group of Chen Han people in the organizing committee, they can barely maintain the status quo, let alone have the courage to carry out reforms.
………
Let’s not say which one is better between Golden Phoenix and Golden Dragon, but for Zuo Le, saying that he is tired of winning the Golden Phoenix Award may be a bit crazy, but the appeal is indeed greatly reduced.
Apart from important awards such as Best Director, Top Ten TV Dramas, and ordinary awards, he really doesn't feel anything.
On the contrary, it is the Golden Dragon Award. Since his debut, he has never participated, let alone been shortlisted and won the award.
Not getting is always the best!
Zuo Le, who likes the new but hates the old, really wants to feel the difference between holding the Golden Dragon Award trophy and the Golden Phoenix Award.
It's a pity that flowing water has feelings, but falling flowers have no intention.
Zuo Le Baba wanted to go to the Golden Dragon Awards to see him, but the Golden Dragon Awards didn’t win him over at all.
The movie "Wulin Gaiden" took in a box office of 1.28 billion, with a Douhua score of 8.3, but it was only nominated for Best Action Design.
Zuo Le admitted that the movie "Wulin Gaiden" has flaws and the quality is not particularly good.
But when it comes to award selection, you can't just look at the works, you also have to consider your competitors.
The movie "Wulin Gaiden" ranked third in the box office this summer and fourteenth in the year, and its Douhua score directly ranked among the top ten in the year.
If we were to remove several foreign blockbusters and only count domestic films, the ranking of "Wulin Gaiden" would still be higher.
With this achievement, not to mention whether I can win an award, at least I won't be ineligible to be shortlisted for some ordinary awards.
Even though the threshold for the Golden Dragon Award is high and the requirements for film selection are strict, if the other nominees are strong and Zuo Le feels that the quality of "Wulin Gaiden" is not enough and the skills are not as good as others, then he will accept it.
But what makes Zuo Le most angry is——
There are several movies with lower box office and lower ratings than "Wulin Gaiden", but they have been nominated for multiple options.
Zuo Le really doesn’t understand the selection mechanism of the Golden Dragon Award. Is he bullying newcomers in the film industry?
………
Others also expressed their dissatisfaction with the movie "Wulin Gaiden", and the one with the most fierce attitude was the film critic, one and a half.
During the summer season, he became famous with three reviews of the movie "Wulin Gaiden".
And he is still in the film review. The film "Wulin Gaiden" is likely to be shortlisted for multiple awards at the end of the year at the Golden Dragon Awards, such as Best Supporting Actor, Best Soundtrack, Best Cinematography and Best Action Design.
As a result, the Golden Dragon Awards has announced this year's shortlist, which can be said to be a slap in the face.
Whether it is to maintain his authority as a film critic or to really complain about "Wulin Gaiden", he wrote an article online at 1:30 to question the operation of the Golden Dragon Awards.
Unfortunately, there were not many applicants for one and a half months. Except for the Yuzhu people from "Wulin Gaiden", there were only a few passers-by who helped to say a few words.
Most other people don't have much objection to this.
Ultimately, the film quality of "Wulin Gaiden" is not enough to convince the public, and it is unclear whether it will be nominated for an award or not.
Being shortlisted and winning awards will not make anyone feel inadequate, on the contrary, it will be justified.
If "Wulin Gaiden" is of excellent quality and has won a very high reputation and box office, I would not dare to turn a blind eye to it if it was given eight Golden Dragon Awards, otherwise I would be waiting to be hated by the audience.
It is precisely because of this that even though Chairman Zuo Da was very unhappy with what the Golden Dragon Awards did, he did not personally come out to publicly question it.
I'm holding my breath!
Zuo Le did not expect that his first encounter with the Golden Dragon Award would be like this. This greatly reduced his impression of the Golden Dragon Award, which was already far behind the Golden Phoenix Award, which he had previously disliked.
At this time, the Golden Phoenix Award came with a particularly timely assist. Two days after the Golden Dragon Award, this year's shortlist was also announced.
The shabby loner with the Golden Dragon Award.
This year's Golden Phoenix Awards, Shanhe dramas represented by Zuo Le, accounted for almost half of the awards.
Let’s talk about the behind-the-scenes awards first. I was shortlisted for 11 behind-the-scenes awards in total and received 27 nominations.
[Best Director]: Zuo Le in "Bright Sword" - Kong Sheng in "Da Ranfang" - Gao Xinjian in "Seven Swords 2"
[Best Screenplay]: "Bright Sword", "Da Ranfang", "Miracle Doctor Xilaile" - Zuo Le, Shang Qianwu, Shanhe Screenwriting Department
It was so densely packed that it accounted for almost one-third of the behind-the-scenes awards, especially "Bright Sword", which had a total of 11 nominations. It was nominated for 8 of them, for a total of 13 nominations.
He deserves to be called the "King of Drama" in 2021.
…………
And this is only the behind-the-scenes award nominated by the Shanhe drama. The actor award is even more terrifying.
There were five nominations, three for Shan He and two for "Bright Sword". It is said that Wu Jinggang among them was initially nominated for Best Newcomer for his role as Duan Peng in "Bright Sword".
Later, the judges felt that "Bright Sword" was too strong and wanted to balance it, so they changed Wu Jing's nominated work to "Lotus Lantern".
[Best Supporting Actor]: Zhang Bei (Chu Yunfei) in "Bright Sword" - Du Lu (Taiwan Wang) in "Xilai Le" - Jiao Jun (Erlang Shen) in "Lotus Lantern"
[Best Supporting Actress]: Wang Yi (Jia Siya) in "Da Ranfang" - Yan Ni (Queen Mother) in "Lotus Lantern" - Yin Li (Ling'er) in "Seven Swords 2"
Five accounts for three and ten accounts for six. Shanhe has almost reached the lower limit of tolerance of the organizing committee.
It's a pity that there are still some actors who failed to be selected, such as Zhao Gang, the second male lead in "Bright Sword", Fujii in "Da Ranfang", Defu in "The Miracle Doctor Xilaile", Saburo in "Seven Swords 2", and Roaring Dog in "Lotus Lantern"
, Chang'e and so on.
These are all very good actors, and they played their roles very well. However, due to the limited number of places and too many strong players, they could only lose unfortunately.
[Best Popular Character of the Year]: Li Youbin (Li Yunlong) in "Bright Sword" - Shui Miaomiao (Lan Xin) in "Seven Swords 2" - Jiao Jun (Er Lang Shen) in "Lotus Lantern" - Shen Teng in "The Story of a College Student 2"
(Li Fanda).
Of the five places, four are from the Shanhe drama, and according to the online simulation voting, these four nominations are ranked in the top four. Even if the votes are divided seriously, such a large proportion will not allow outsiders to counterattack.
[Best Actress]: Niu Ping (Hu) in "Xilai Le" - Shui Miaomiao (Lan Xin) in "Seven Swords 2"
This can be regarded as a weakness of this year's Shanhe dramas. Most of them are dramas with male protagonists. The female protagonists are not outstanding, but they have too few roles.
There are enough roles, the quality of the TV series and the acting skills of the actors are relatively average, and they are in the middle and lower reaches of the finalists.
Especially Shui Miaomiao, after being shortlisted for screening this time, just like last time, she still dominated the role.
In the first part of "Seven Swords", Hong Miao and Dugu Xiao competed with her character Lan Xin, but in the second part, strictly speaking, Lan Xin is the first protagonist, and Hong Miao and Ling'er are behind her.
It is precisely because of the importance of the role and the good results of "Seven Swords 2" that Shui Miaomiao was nominated for the second time as a TV drama queen.
To a certain extent, Shui Miaomiao's luck is not very good. After two nominations, it was obvious that she was accompanied by others, and her chances of winning the award were very low.
Last year's "Magic Phone" was the time when she most hoped to try her luck, but she was not shortlisted.
Maybe this is fate...
If the battle for the queen is the weak point of Shanhe Drama, then this year's TV drama is almost the winner of Shanhe Drama.
[Best Actor]: Li Youbin (Li Yunlong) in "Bright Sword" - Hou Yong (Chen Liuzi) in "Da Ranfang" - Wang Baotian (Xilaile) in "Xilaile"
The three nominations are all popular for "The Emperor", among which Li Youbin is particularly popular.
The media, the public, and the industry all believe that he has an 80% chance of winning the award this year, completing an unprecedented hat-trick of Golden Phoenix Awards.
As for the final annual top ten TV series awards, all TV series produced by Shanhe this year were shortlisted.
Among them, four dramas, "Bright Sword", "Seven Swords 2", "Da Ranfang" and "Baolian Lantern", have received ratings of 3, and are almost certain to win awards.
And "Miracle Doctor Xilaile" has a pretty good reputation and is very likely to be selected.
The remaining dramas such as "Family with Children" are actually not hopeless in terms of performance and reputation, but it is impossible for the Golden Phoenix Awards organizing committee to give all the cake to the Shanhe family.
Therefore, in this year's selection of Shanhe Drama's top ten TV dramas, there is a high probability that it will be four and five.
…………
One-third of the behind-the-scenes awards are taken up, and the actor award accounts for nearly half of the nominations. Four of the top ten awards are competing for five.
When the nominations for this year's awards were first announced, some people said that Shanhe accounted for half of the Golden Phoenix Awards, and some people were disdainful. But after the major media carefully studied it and published articles, everyone was confused.
This is not even half of the country. The Golden Phoenix Award could just be renamed the Mountain and River Award...
What an exaggeration!!!
It has always been rumored that Shanhe will break out this year and be unparalleled in the field of TV dramas, but except for insiders and viewers who pay attention to TV entertainment news.
Many people only know that Shanhe is very strong this year, but how strong it is. Without seeing relevant performance data, they cannot form an idea in their minds.
Until the Golden Phoenix Awards announced the nominations for this year's awards, the series of names finally made everyone understand why this year when talking about TV dramas, the word "mountain and river" cannot be separated.
At least in the field of TV dramas this year, Shanhe drama has achieved the point of dominating the world and being the only one who dominates.
Some Sunward fans have already called out that the Chinese TV drama market in 2021 can be called the "Year of Sunward" to commemorate the excellent works and glorious achievements produced by Sunward this year.
To be honest, this title is a bit crazy, but Shanhe drama does have the capital to be crazy. Even if many people are dissatisfied, they don't have the confidence to refute.
Are you dissatisfied?
If you don't accept it, you have created so many explosive dramas in one year, so what kind of year will they give you?
No one objected, and the title [Year of Shanhe] was slowly being called out. Zuo Le and some senior Shanhe officials were excited, but also felt stressed.
This year, Shanhe's performance was so good, and the outside world also held them too high. Although it brought Shanhe a lot of prestige and influence, there are advantages and disadvantages.
If their results are not good next year, no matter how high they are praised by outsiders now, they will be severely punished in the future.
However, under great pressure, Zuo Le and the others still did not lose their sense of proportion. When developing the Shanhe project, they have always taken one step at a time and looked at the next three steps.
Next year's three series, "Family with Children 5", "Serious Cases 3" and "College Story 3", are guaranteed.
The long-running serious drama "Mansion Gate", the suspenseful detective drama "Detective Di Renjie", and the popular mythological drama "The Prequel of the Lotus Lantern" which is currently being prepared, these three dramas have stabilized the market.
In addition, Zuo Le plans to direct the spy drama "Insidious" as his trump card.
After many preparations, even if the glory of this year cannot be reproduced, the Shanhe brand will not be covered in dust.
Not to mention, these are only some of the projects for next year, there are other key projects to be slowly developed by Shanhe...
