Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1205 Come Again

"Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be fine."

Although he didn't win "Best Actor", Chow Yun-fat quickly adjusted his mentality.

After all, the most tense time was before the guests were about to announce the actor's name. Now it has passed, and Chow Yun-fat has returned to his former calm.

But at this time, Ye Tong was a little different from his calmness before, after all, now was the time to reveal his name.

Although she is not "Best Actress" who is extremely eager to win the Academy Award, if there is hope, she will certainly not refuse this award.

But last year, Chen Yulian won the Golden Statue Award with "Legend of Sword and Fairy", which made many people think that it must be because of Lin Daoqiu's relationship, so she won the "Best Actress".

However, such remarks did not cause much disturbance. After all, everyone's views on the Academy Awards at this time are still very simple, and they have not yet reached the stage of examining with a magnifying glass, so Lin Daoqiu can do this.

The reason why it was done this way last year was actually to allow the Academy Awards to strike a balance between commercial films and literary films. Lin Daoqiu did not want the Academy Awards to become a carnival of literary films.

However, this year's Academy Awards has returned to the scene where literary films dominate. Most of the shortlisted films this year are dominated by literary films and drama films.

Lin Daoqiu could have avoided such a situation, but after thinking twice, he decided to let go temporarily.

So this year's Academy Awards can be said to have returned to the situation of the first edition.

"I originally thought that I would be able to let go of my participation in the Academy Awards this time, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't calm down."

Ye Tong was nominated for "Best Actress" last year with "Seven Days of Love", and this year is the second time she has been shortlisted for this award, which is a kind of affirmation of her acting skills.

"Actually, it's normal. Before winning this award, everyone's mentality should be said to be similar."

This is the first time for Chow Yun-fat to be nominated for the "Best Actor" competition. He thinks it is quite interesting, but it is a pity that he did not win the award.

"You can see it now, but I believe that if you are shortlisted next year, you may have a chance to win this award, but this year is really a pity."

Ye Tong felt that Chow Yun-fat's performance in "Waiting for Dawn" was indeed very good, but unfortunately he was not recognized by the judges, perhaps because Zheng Zeshi was even better.

At this time, Yu Teng on the stage had torn apart the list of winners, and then moved it in front of Chen Xinjian.

After seeing the name in the envelope, Chen Xinjian first smiled, and then fell silent.

For the "Best Actress" of this year's Academy Awards, some are optimistic about Ye Tong, and the other part are optimistic about Ye Dexian.

Although two actors from "The Year Like Water" were selected for the nomination list, because they are not well-known, and Siqin Gaowa is an actor from the Mainland, the possibility of her winning the award is actually not high in everyone's opinion.

As for the other Gu Meihua, this is only her first play.

Although Leung Ka Fai, who acted for the first time last year, won the "Best Actor" for his outstanding performance in "Burning the Old Summer Palace" and "Listening to the Government Behind the Curtain".

However, such a situation is only a special case, and many people do not think that such a situation will occur a second time.

"The actor who won Best Actress is..."

Yu Cheng paused, then looked at the actresses in the stands.

""The Years Like Water" Gu Meihua..."

When Yu Cheng called out this name, everyone on the scene was shocked.

Because in everyone's opinion, the probability of Gu Meihua winning the award is almost the same as that of Lin Qingxia winning the award.

But I didn't expect that the story that happened last year would continue in the end. After winning "Best Newcomer", the actor could get a second award, but this time it was not "Best Supporting Actress" but "Best Actress". Heroine".

Gu Meihua herself couldn't believe that she won "Best Actress". She originally thought that if she came to participate in this Golden Statue Award today, it should be nothing.

After winning the "Best Newcomer" before, Gu Meihua still felt that she was very lucky, but she didn't expect that the bigger surprise was still in the background.

When she came to the stage to receive the award, Gu Meihua didn't know what to say. It seemed that she was in a daze now.

At this time, the expressions on the faces of Chu Yuan and Lin Daoqiu in the audience did not seem to have changed much, because they already knew the ownership of the awards before that.

And this time in the voting for "Best Newcomer" and "Best Actress", the competition was fierce at the beginning.

Especially in the voting for "Best Actress", it took five rounds of voting before Gu Meihua won the crown.

The reason for this situation is that Gu Meihua's votes are far from those of other actresses in the readers' votes.

If it weren't for the strong support of the judges, it would be almost impossible for her to win "Best Actress" this time.

"What does Mr. Lin think of Gu Meihua, a newcomer, winning this award?"

When Gu Meihua delivered her award acceptance speech, Chu Yuan and Lin Daoqiu chatted.

"Some people are naturally suitable for acting, but they just don't have the opportunity to enter the industry. She won these two awards. I can only say that her talent is indeed very high, and she also chose the right role."

Of course, Lin Daoqiu also knew about the five rounds of voting, this time he did not intervene, but watched the award ceremony of the Academy Awards as a bystander.

Chu Yuan felt that Lin Daoqiu's words were right. Although Gu Meihua only entered the industry at the age of 33, she believed that after she won these two awards, her development in the next few years would be smooth.

Based on her performance in literary films, I believe she will definitely attract the favor of those literary film directors.

Moreover, Gu Meihua is just a newcomer in the industry. Although she has won two awards, her salary will definitely not be high. At this time, it is definitely a very cost-effective choice to invite her to film.

After the award of "Best Actress", there are only two awards left, "Best Director" and "Best Picture".

Hu Jinquan won the best director for "Legend of Sword and Fairy" last year.

The "Best Picture" was won by "New Shushan Swordsman".

The reason why such a situation occurred was entirely the result of Lin Daoqiu's instigation, otherwise, based on the taste of those judges, they would definitely not award the awards to these two plays.

Lin Daoqiu did not interfere with the selection of the Academy Awards this year, so it stands to reason that there should not be the same results as last year.

What many people want to know is what kind of direction this year's Academy Awards will take. This is a very curious thing.
