I really can't act

Chapter 446

Shu Qi and the previous actor Ruan Jingtian presented the Best Actor award.The two told each other a joke, and after adjusting the atmosphere of the scene, they began to string together words.

Fang Yi has also been an award presenter before, so he knows that the lines of the guests are actually written by the screenwriter in advance.

Ruan Jingtian glanced at the script: "Sister Shu Qi, is there any actor you particularly like... I want you to choose from the following four, they are Ge You's "Let the Bullets Fly", Hua Zi's "Sister Tao" ", Fang Yi's "Love Letter"...and East Film Festival King Qianyuan's "The Piano of Steel". We haven't read the answer yet, but I want to know who you most hope to be crowned best actor."

Shu Qi didn't really want to cause trouble, so after hearing this, he praised everyone and concluded: "They happen to represent the most outstanding group of male stars of different age groups in the three places on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. I don't think there is a way to choose. Before and after, there is no way to compare.”

Ruan Jingtian interrupted her: "Eh?! This is to compare and choose the most suitable one... So sister Shu Qi, you can choose one, and I will also choose one later to see if I can guess it right. We may not be able to guess."

"Then I choose Fang Yi."

The camera was immediately shown to Fang Yi, who clasped his hands together and made a thank you gesture.

Ruan Jingtian asked: "Why?"

Shu Qi said with a smile: "It's pretty~ Tell me who doesn't like pretty things."

"Isn't Hua Tsai not good-looking?"

"I like my brother better."

"Then I will choose Teacher Ge You, because although "Let the Bullets Fly" was not introduced to Baodao, it is also very famous in Baodao. I have watched it several times... Okay, let's see who guessed it right now." I still haven't figured it out yet."

Shu Qi covered his chest, acting like a little woman, dancing in small steps: "I don't dare to watch it, I'm afraid I won't win an award if I like it..."

Ruan Jingtian had no choice but to open it by himself. The paper with the written answer was caught in the small envelope. He took it out and turned it over. He immediately grinned, handed the paper to Shu Qi, and took a step back.

This action is obvious.

Before Shu Qi had time to open it, the people around Fang Yi had already started to congratulate him. The other three candidates controlled their expressions, preparing to show a sense of generosity that was even happier than winning an award.

——Shu Qi really shouted:
"Fang Yi!!!"

Fang Yi trotted all the way onto the stage and hugged Shu Qi. The Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee gave him the following lyrics:

"Fang Yi was shortlisted for the Golden Horse Award for the first time, but he is already a mainstay filmmaker, and his works are well-known; in "Love Letter", he played the role of a young lawyer with a prodigal son. The pictures of the past, magnificent and imaginative, are destined to become film and television classics."

Fang Yi was in a very relaxed state. He had already written a draft in his mind, and just read it out: "About 2000 BC..."

The conversation was interrupted by the rather crazy audience below.

Fang Yi could only smile helplessly, and paused for two or three seconds, waiting for the call to pass.

Then read: "About 2000 BC, there is such a sentence on the inscription of the ancient Egyptian Shaboti figure, which is used to describe our human beings' learning and practice of complex systems..." He spoke in a correct and rhythmic manner. Said, "If there is work in the next life, then you must do it for me. Once I call, you must respond immediately. When you work here, you must be careful in your words and deeds. Plow my fields and carry water and sand to the east and west. .Whenever I call, you must answer immediately."

There was silence for a while, and the filmmakers were pondering the meaning of Fang Yi citing this ancient Egyptian inscription.

Fang Yi explained: "I have a hunch that newer creative techniques will be born, and the corresponding productivity tools and theories will also be greatly updated...Now the theory may be ahead, or it may be a little behind, it doesn't matter. , it is important to be aware of the inevitability of innovation. The development of human civilization relies on the advancement of productivity tools. We drive those silent machines to work efficiently day and night... "Love Letter" has been shot as a small and medium-cost film in the past I think it is a good example of a shot that was only produced at a large cost, and the new technology did not affect the expression of the actors, this award is the best reward for me..."

He raised the Golden Horse Best Actor trophy, nodded and said, "So I will continue to walk this path. There may be twists and turns, but it is definitely better than doing nothing."

He applauded politely, but he didn't understand much of what he said.

It's not that film people's cultural level is too low to understand, but that they haven't established basic concepts in their minds.

For example, when the eldest brother Cheng and Fang Yi worked together, they thought that the so-called special effects of the base were to shoot the finished film and throw it over to do CG... But unexpectedly, Fang Yi also had requirements for the rules and regulations of the studio, as well as requirements for the production of props... everything With the cooperation of others, the married class, who was accustomed to direct death, complained endlessly.

Change is really harder than fighting for life.

——In the process of walking down, Hua Zai, who was not selected as the best actor, stood up and greeted Fang Yi from a distance. Fang Yi thought it was strange, but he didn't take it too seriously.

Liu Tianxian noticed it and said, "Hua Zai is really magnanimous, he can be so magnanimous even if he loses!"

Fang Yi: "Maybe it's because he has a feeling for my speech? Hua Tsai just agrees with me... Isn't he trying to revive Hong Kong movies? He chose to support literary and artistic movies, while I went another way."

Liu Tianxian started talking about cp: "You guys are sympathetic to each other." Looking back at Fang Yi, "It's really strange, if someone uses a word like 'rejuvenation', I'd be blush, but it's on you, even I don’t think there’s any inconsistency.”

Guo Fan interrupted: "This is the name of a person, the shadow of a tree, ah, ah, the bright future lies with Fang Dao... Of course it is not against the law."

The grand finale is on.The awarding of the best director was made by Zhang Aijia, chairman of the jury, and she said something meaningful in a joke:

"Now the industry is developing very fast, and there are many new friends...Jiang Wen's "Let the Bullets Fly" and Baodao's "Sediq Bale" are all big productions and big investments. The original system cannot provide such funds. Therefore, we have brought in a lot of investors from outside the industry, and they have all contributed to the development of our film industry and injected a life-saving medicine.”

Then he said: "Andy Hua Tsai is different, he is more traditional... In the film "Sister Tao", Hua Tsai starred in the film with no pay and sponsored the film. Although the box office of "Sister Tao" may not be very high But it must be a good film. Now Andy Lau didn’t win Best Actor in the end, I’m sorry, I think he doesn’t necessarily blame me, but he thinks it’s worth it.”

——This Zhang Aijia seems to be in the process of gossiping, taking out several award-winning and popular movies for evaluation.All she gave was in a complimenting tone, but the strength of the compliments was not the same after listening carefully.

Sure enough, when Zhang Aijia mentioned Fang Yi, her tone changed again:

"I met Hua Tsai in the backstage before. We were all worried about the future of the industry. He told me that the Taiwan film industry has gone through a difficult period and is still in a very difficult stage. However, the Taiwan filmmakers have not given up. Find a way out in various ways... Now the same is true for Hong Kong films, he hopes that young people will not lose confidence in the future, but unite and work hard for the continuation of our industry, and there will be a day when things get better..."

"So I thought of a very young mainland filmmaker. He is the same as the mainland film market. On the contrary, he is entering a stage of rapid growth, reflecting a completely different approach from ours. I am now more than ten meters away It's the first time I met him, but I have been in love with him for a long time, not only me, but also other people in the jury... Director Fang is a filmmaker who can provide commerciality, and he has his own philosophical thinking. You will feel that this is a thoughtful young man, full of talent, as a so-called senior, I actually envy him, envy him, I am just a lot older than him..."

Zhang Aijia is a bit similar to Yu Feihong, that is, she calmly said something that shocked the audience, and she was not affected by it, and she didn't care what others felt.

Her words now are very tendentious, making the guests in the Swoosh live broadcast hall excited.

Xia Yu exaggeratedly called out "哗~", and laughed loudly.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yang asked him.

Xia Yu patted his thigh: "Maybe it's the third of the seventh? This is the third of the seventh! Director Zhang Aijia means that she..." Xia Yu blushed with excitement and stammered, "She just wants to give Fang Yi an award Got it... Do you understand, she came out and said these words, and she spent ten minutes talking non-stop, just explaining in advance why she chose Fang Yi!"

Directors are all good people, Lu Yang knew what Zhang Aijia meant after hearing a few words.But isn't this a live broadcast?

It's not good to be too sure.We have to show a competitive situation.

And Zhang Aijia under pressure to give Fang Yi the best director?My God, she is too daring to post this, it is completely different from last year's Golden Horse.

He asked Fu Dalong: "Mr. Fu, do you think it is possible?"

Fu Dalong said bluntly: "As far as these words are concerned now, I can hear the meaning. I don't know if there will be a but..."

"No but! No but!"

Xia Yu laughed. "I just entered this studio, how did I analyze it when I sat down? Audience friends, let me tell you one more thing now. That is Fang Yi. Although he has a high box office and high popularity, he is very rare. He is very popular among academics. Welcome... I won't go into details here, but I want to talk about this movie "Sedek Bale". Now I don't know if it can get the best picture, because Zhang Aijia hardly mentioned it, and it is obviously the best The director wants to give Fang Yi... big news, I really dare to post it, maybe we won't say anything here, Baodao will definitely criticize her."

Lu Yang said: "Not necessarily, there are other ways!"

"How to say?"

"The best film will continue to go to "Sediq Bale", it must be... But the best director can be given to Director Fang, right? We are not discussing the artistic value of the film now, as far as the development of our industry is concerned , need more "Love Letter" instead of "Sediq Bale", especially in a place like ours where a large number of main theme movies can be made. When the time comes to learn from others, a lot of resources may be wasted."

Although taking into account the effect of the program and creating a state of suspense, the guests in the live broadcast room still expressed their dissatisfaction with "Sediq Bale" during the dialogue.

"Sai" is indeed not bad, but I met "Love Letter".It is almost certain that if Fang Yi were to direct an epic film like "The Race", he would never rely on crowd tactics.The directors of the old era actually used the same filming methods as the feudal emperors. They had little control over the grassroots of the crew, and the organization could not be improved. They had to rely on various foremen to mobilize with their personal prestige.

It is nothing more than splitting a large workshop into many small workshops.

Zhang Aijia expressed a similar point of view on the screen. Instead of being so straightforward, she said rather euphemistically, "If young people in Baodao or Hong Kong want to make movies again, come to ask me for advice, I will suggest that they study Fang Yi first. .I don’t know if Fang Dao’s words are right, as far as I am concerned, they are closer to ‘right’ than me…”

After all, two local filmmakers came up.They are Li Xinjie, the best actress of the 39th Golden Horse Awards, and Liu Ruoying, the only actress from Taiwan who won the best actress from mainland China.

What these two actresses have in common is that they are both young people promoted by Zhang Aijia.

The result is obvious.After the three of them finished speaking, the personal portraits of several directors were projected on the screen. Zhang Aijia didn't write any ink, and said directly:
"The one who won the best director at the 48th Golden Horse Awards is Fang Yi, please come up."

Fang Yi had already expected it when he sat down, but he was still a little dazed when he finally remembered him.

How dare you win two prizes in a row.

He came on stage and thanked his seniors for their appreciation, and thanked the filmmakers who worked with him...for a while, he couldn't find what to thank, because he thought it was the last time he came on stage, and he said everything he had to say.

Holding the third trophy in his hand, it is no different from the previous ones, but it has undergone a qualitative change.

In a general sense, the "Grand Slam" of Chinese-language directors refers to the fact that the director has successively taken all the Golden Horse, Golden Rooster and Golden Statues during his entire career, which is called a Grand Slam.This achievement has not been brushed down yet.

Because the three awards are independent, have their own selection criteria, and there are some historical factors, it is only a matter of recent years to be able to participate in the selection, and some regulations are quite fucked up. For example, the Academy Award requires a production company to be from Hong Kong. If the company is legally registered in Hong Kong, more than 6 jobs are Hong Kong residents, and it has to be officially released in Hong Kong-this is currently impossible for Fang Yi.

Many domestic directors can't figure it out. Only Jiang Wen, who has long-term cooperation with Hong Kong capital and teams, can make it possible.

So what are you now, a little slam?

He laughed to himself, he would be tempted for honor, and he even coined a word.After he finished his acceptance speech, he was ready to go on, but the audience below were unwilling and kept cheering, wanting him to stay on stage.

After a closer look, many familiar filmmakers also stood up:
The eldest brother Cheng raised his hand on his head and clapped his hands so loudly that the nearby filmmakers had to applaud along with him; Jiang Wen's "Let the Bullets Fly" only won some Sesame Awards, but Jiang Wen looked very happy , shaking his head with emotion, while shouting from time to time to add to the fun.

Not to mention that in the Souhu live broadcast room, Lu Yang, who will be the second horse boy, is full of beautiful words and never stops.

Fang Yi was like a drama actor after the performance, and he really didn't say any more speeches. After bowing a few times on that stage, he finally let the audience release their passion and let him leave.

Afterwards, the best film awards were announced, and it was the best director, the best actor and actress, and the script... all of them were unsuccessful, but "Sediq Bale", which won the only biggest award, would definitely not be able to become the focus. Know what the jury means.

The actual winner is Fang Yi.

　What really happened at the Golden Horse Awards this year.It's just that the protagonist of the story has been replaced by Hua Tsai.Andy Lau said at the time that he was worried about the decline of Hong Kong films and cried when he talked about it.It's useless to see what he did now, it's better to go to the Wandering Earth crew to learn more.
