Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 234 "On Plastic Brotherhood in the Entertainment Industry"

At 45:[-], the red carpet officially began.

The invited guests entered the arena one by one, the speed was smooth, and no one deliberately made trouble.

In the Shanghai Metropolitan Theater, huge banners were hung high, colorful flags were flying, and rows of seats surrounded the center stage in a fan shape.

The high-end atmosphere is high-grade, and the ostentation is more than a step higher than that of the Imperial College Student Film Festival in April.

Fang Ziheng led Liu Qianqian to the front, followed by Zeng Li and Lin Feifei. The four of them were guided by the staff to the third row near the center.

Half an hour later, thousands of guests were seated safely, and the host came on stage and introduced the leaders attending the film festival.

After all, it is the only international category A film festival in Huaguo.

In addition to being invited to come to have more and more celebrity artists, the leaders who gave speeches on the stage are also more senior than each other.

When the leader took the stage, there was warm applause from the audience, and tonight's film festival has entered the first high stage.

After the leader's speech, there were several opening song and dance performances, the main purpose of which was to slow down the rhythm.

It was not until seven o'clock in the evening that the opening ceremony entered the award theme.

Today, such high-value awards as actor, actress, and best director will not be awarded, but directors and veteran actors who have made outstanding contributions to Chinese films will be drawn up and special contribution awards will be presented to them.

"Chinese films have gone through a hundred years of struggle, from scratch, from weak to strong, generation after generation of filmmakers for their dreams and art"

Some of the predecessors are dead, and some are very old, but their spirit will last forever, and the great works of art they left behind will last forever. "

"Following the teachings of our predecessors and pursuing the dedication to art, today we gather together to participate in this grand event, contribute to the prosperity of Chinese-language films, and work together
Next, I am very honored to announce to you that the winner of the No.14 Outstanding Contribution Award for Chinese Films at the Shanghai International Film Festival is
"Famous directors Ma Xiaogang and Fang Ziheng!"

As the host called out the names of the two in a high-pitched voice, there was thunderous applause at the scene.

Two bright and colorful lights shot from the sky and hit Feng Pants and Fang Ziheng, making them instantly the most handsome boys in the Shanghai Metropolitan Theater.

The big screen on the main stage also flickered, and began to play the movie collection of Feng Pants and Fang Ziheng.

"Anonymous"

"Detective Chinatown"

"Four Famous Catch"

"Edge of Tomorrow"

"person A person B"

"Night Banquet"

"Assembly Number"

"Tangshan Earthquake"

"If You Are the One 1"

Fang Ziheng's four films are on the list, and Feng Pants' five films are on the list.

Except for "The Banquet", the other eight works are not to be underestimated, and the standard of the works has reached first-class or above.

The applause in the theater was like a wave and lasted for a long time.

The host invited them for the second time, and the two got up one after another, turned around in a circle and waved to the guests.

Fang Ziheng, Liu Qianqian, Lin Feifei, and Zeng Li hugged and celebrated, and shared the good luck with the three beauties.

Feng Pants followed suit and hugged Sister Fan Bing beside her, not at all polite.

On the stage, the host continued to babble non-stop, bragging about the film achievements of the two.

"Chinese-language films are fortunate to have such talented filmmakers as Director Feng and Director Fang. I believe that most of the guests in the audience have seen their works. They need word-of-mouth and box office. Their achievements are astonishing. Admire."

"Last year, Director Feng and Director Fang created two films each year, and the total box office occupied the top two respectively.

The sci-fi war film "Edge of Tomorrow" directed by Fang Ziheng not only set a new box office record for Chinese-language films, but also shined in the global film market, topping the global weekly box office chart twice! "

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome Director Feng Xiaogang and Director Fang Ziheng with the warmest applause!"

clap clap..
clap clap..
Amid endless applause, the two walked out of the aisle and came to the steps on the edge of the stage together.

Fang Ziheng stopped, and in line with the traditional virtues of respecting the old and loving the young, he said to the high-spirited Feng Trousers: "Director Feng, please first?"

"Haha, the one who has mastered it is the first, so please invite the leader first!"

Feng Pants responded cheerfully with a grin, feeling extremely happy and humbled in a rare way.

Fang Ziheng made a gesture of reaching out his hand, and smiled: "Director Feng is a senior, so the rules must not be messed up!"

"Let's not talk about this, let's be together!"

Feng Pants was even happier, very satisfied with Fang Ziheng's attitude, he grabbed his arm and stepped onto the stage.

Click
A few flashes of white light flickered, freezing the scene of the harmony between the two.

The reporters squatting in front of the stage were taking pictures and complaining in their hearts.

Damn it!
It is said that Feng's pants are crazy, why did Fang Ziheng change his routine and be so kind every time we meet?
The reporters didn't understand, they still wanted to see two big directors fighting for seats.

The guests in the audience didn't understand either, especially Wu Baige and Chen Daren.

They knew the arrogance of Feng Pants. He was a guy who liked to shoot for no reason. Among the many directors in the entire director circle, Feng Pants was the most arrogant.

Why did he become so amiable when he met Fang Ziheng!
Liu Qianqian was also very puzzled. Seeing that the two of them turned and tumbled and finally went on stage together, she couldn't help asking Concubine Lin and Zeng Li: "Sister Concubine, Sister Li, it is reasonable to say that Director Feng is a senior, so he will take the stage first. Nothing wrong, why are you so polite to Ziheng?"

"Ha ha.."

Concubine Lin and Zeng Li looked at each other, with the corners of their mouths raised, they put their arms around Miss Sister and You Rongyan and smiled, "Silly girl, of course your family Ziheng is strong enough and powerful enough to make Feng Pants polite!"

"oh oh.."

The young lady understood, she showed a bright smile, and stared happily at the lover on the stage.

Speaking of Fang Ziheng's strength, she has a deep understanding!

After taking the stage, there was loud background music sounding at the scene.

The award presenter, Zhang Guoli, supported an old woman who was over eighty years old, and walked slowly from the backstage aisle.

Fang Ziheng saw it, and trotted forward, holding the other arm of the old lady.

The grandmother's name is Qin Yi, an old artist who is almost 90 years old, and has been making movies since the time when he was fighting devils.

The old man is a miserable person, with an unfortunate marriage and an early death of his son, all the way from the difficult times to the present.

She can persist for so many years and live a long and healthy life, all thanks to her positive and optimistic attitude.

After receiving the trophy, Fang Ziheng and the staff sent the old lady off the stage, and then returned to the stage to give a speech.

At this time, the big screen behind flashed and flashed, and a filmmaker who had previously won the Outstanding Contribution Award for Chinese Films appeared.

Uncle Long, Lao Mouzi, Xie Jing, Man Huang, Zhang Yinghou, Li An, Chen Daren, and Wu Baige who just won the award last year.

Fang Ziheng and Feng Kuo stood in the center of the stage, Zhang Guoli and the two hosts Chen Chen and Lin Hai stood on both sides.

Originally here, it was time for the winners to step forward and give a speech.

But it's so hard to die, the hostess Chen Chen suddenly called out and asked the award presenter Zhang Guoli to chat, saying that he and Feng Kuo are good friends.

A good friend won the award, do you have any blessings?

It was supposed to be a lively topic, and there was a slight applause from the audience. The guests thought that the hostess was quite capable and knew how to adjust the atmosphere.

Feng Trousers and Fang Ziheng also took a second look at the hostess, and stepped forward to speak.

Of course they do!
What everyone didn't expect was that Zhang Guoli didn't play cards according to common sense at all.

He picked up the microphone, and in front of thousands of guests, he chuckled: "Actually, my relationship with Xiaogang is not very close, and we have never been close friends. He and I are just unreliable partners." .”

boom..
The atmosphere in the Grand Theater became turbulent in an instant, and the guests counted one by one, all of them looked confused.

The reporter who was filming under the steps was also dumbfounded. After a short period of stupefaction, he frantically pressed the quick button and pointed the camera at Zhang Guoli and Feng Pants.

The hostess who asked the question stared wide-eyed, and at this moment her head was covered with black lines.

Old Zhang, old Zhang!

If I don't take you to play like this, what the hell is going to cut me off the whole time!

Feng's trousers were also square, his smile was stiff, his face was as flushed as a pig's liver, and he stood there motionless.

Fang Ziheng was so close that he could clearly feel Feng Pants' anger. This guy's heartbeat was soaring rapidly.

He quietly took a step away from Feng's furious trousers, avoiding the fish pond.

Zhang Guoli didn't know what kind of madness he had gone into, but he actually dismantled Feng's trousers on this occasion.

You know, the two have been good friends and good brothers for many years, and they can be called a ferromagnetic pair in the entertainment industry.

"Why do I say that!"

Just when the big guys were wondering, Zhang Guoli began to ask and answer by himself, and said with a little smile and jokes: "Everyone knows that Xiaogang and I have known each other for many years. In 2000, we made a movie called "A Sigh". In the movie, I am the hero and Xiaogang’s wife is the heroine.

Fortunately, "A Sigh" won the award, the Best Actor Award at the Cairo Film Festival. I was so happy at the time, thinking that my old Zhang had gone abroad, and I could go to the Cairo Film Festival to see and see. "

"In the end, guess what? For the best actor award, Xiaogang actually took his wife to receive the award, leaving me, the number one male, aside, everyone commenting, is this considered a good friend?"

"The two of us started a company together. He agreed to share 60% and I 40%. He focused on movies and I focused on TV dramas. Together we made the company bigger and stronger. After a few years of operation, he was about to sell the company. "

"Sell it, let's sell it, the worst is to start a company together, but you can't monopolize the money from the sale!
"Good guy, Xiaogang eats all by himself, so he gives me some soup and water. Do you think there is such a thing? Brothers are still clear!"

Zhang Guoli talked about himself, with a cadence of tone, a smile in his eyes, and a stab in his words, using cross talk to bury Feng's trousers all over.

Feng Trousers maintained the smile on his face and did not dare to interrupt him. He could hear the anger in his friend's words and knew that Zhang Guoli was dissatisfied with him.

He also knew the reason for his dissatisfaction. After selling the company jointly founded by the two to Huayi, he got more money, 90% of it alone.

Zhang Guoli, only a little soup!

When someone is unhappy, he can only accept it, no matter how angry he is, he dare not speak out, he will take it as a joke.

Of course, in his heart, he had already scolded Zhang Guoli ten or eight times.

The audience roared with laughter, giving Zhang Guoli thumbs up one after another, praising him for his ingenuity and making such an unexpected joke.

Fang Ziheng also lightly clasped his palms together, revealing a smile as before.

Another incident of uneven distribution of spoils!
After venting in front of thousands of people, Zhang Guoli also lost most of his anger at Feng Pants, stepped back with a smile, and gave the host a wink.

The male host hurriedly took control of the scene and reached out to ask Feng Kuan and Fang Ziheng to give their acceptance speeches.

There is nothing good about the acceptance speech, the speech is the same, not for sensation, just for no mistakes.

After 2 minutes, the three stepped down one by one.

Feng Pants started, Zhang Guoli was in the middle, and Fang Ziheng finished.

He stared at Feng's drenched vest with great interest. He had personally seen what it meant to be stabbed by Rumang today.

Zhang Guoli's speech hits the nail on the head, let alone Feng Pants, anyone else would be unable to get off the stage.

This pair of good buddies, it is estimated that at this point, there is only a harmonious relationship on the surface.

After stepping off the stage, Fang Ziheng returned to his seat.

Liu Qianqian snatched the trophy, stared at the stars and said, "I don't know when I will get this Outstanding Contribution Award."

"Don't worry, there will be!" Fang Ziheng replied, teasing the young lady.

"Really, when?"

"Wait until you are seventy and eighty!"

"Hate!"

The little sister was dissatisfied, holding the trophy and looking left and right, the more she looked, the happier she became.

Next, there were no other awards at the opening ceremony, and the judges of the organizing committee took the stage to speak one by one.

As representatives, Lao Mouzi, Li An, and Chen Daren were also invited by the organizing committee to come on stage to express their opinions and discuss how Chinese-language films can go abroad and go out of the world.

Logically speaking, Wu Baige is also qualified to take the stage, and he spoke on stage in his last life.

This life is different. After "Red Cliff" hit the street, Chinese-language movies "Four Famous Catch" and "Edge of Tomorrow" came out one after another. The ups and downs also caused Wu Baige's status in the domestic director circle to decline. It's not 01: 30 o'clock.

The opening ceremony was not long, and after the last speaker left the stage, it took less than two hours in total.

Soon, the process was over and the guests left.

Fang Ziheng left with the three beauties. He was not going to attend the closing ceremony. One was that the closing ceremony was three days away, and the other was that he didn't have enough time.

There is a high probability that "Edge of Tomorrow" will still win an award. When the time comes, let Concubine Lin and the main creator of the film lead it. He will just send a video to thank him in the air.

After leaving the Grand Theatre, the guests were blocked by the reporters as expected.

There is no way, one is willing to fight this kind of thing, and the other is willing to suffer.

As many actors and entertainers hate entertainment reporters, there are more actors and entertainers who like to be interviewed.

However, on such occasions, reporters also select people to interview, giving priority to hot things and people.

Fang Ziheng briefly talked about the filming progress of "Looking for the Dragon" and the emotion of winning the award, and then threw the reporter aside.

As for the reporter's question about his opinion on Murdoch and the copyright issue of "Looking for the Dragon", he didn't say a word.

They are all commercial secrets, how could they be made public.

He couldn't find any hot spots, so the reporters quickly turned their guns and surrounded Xing Feng's pants and Zhang Guoli.

These two good buddies are today's firepower attractors!
Before ten o'clock in the evening, various media uploaded reports on the Shanghai International Film Festival until the evening.

"The latest news is that Fang Ziheng's new film "Looking for the Dragon" has caused the boss of [-]th Century Fox to question him personally. It is suspected that the copyright has been sold for a sky-high price!"

"At the opening ceremony of the just-concluded Shanghai International Film Festival, Fang Ziheng won the Outstanding Contribution Award in Chinese. At the age of 24, he is on par with all the senior directors and famous directors, and his status is much higher than that of countless filmmakers."

""Looking for the Dragon", this year's most watched live-action 3D blockbuster! A world-class media tycoon, the chairman of News Corp. took the initiative to inquire about the copyright and distribution of "Looking for the Dragon", and invited Fang Ziheng to go to Hollywood to develop, claiming that the price will follow him !"

In the reports, Fang Ziheng, Feng Kuo, and Zhang Guoli became the protagonists.

No matter how eye-catching other top male and female stars are, how gorgeous their looks and clothing are, they can't steal the popularity of the three of them.

According to Fang Ziheng's reports, the media mostly said that he communicated cordially with Murdoch, successfully stepped out of the country, and attracted the attention of Hollywood tycoons.

Feng Pants and Zhang Guoli are different. They provided a well-ripe melon for the majority of netizens.

A reporter at the scene took a photo of the two of them together on stage, one was talking about cross talk with a smile on his face, and the other was as stiff as sitting on pins and needles!
The title of the report is also very bluffing.

"On Plastic Brotherhood in the Entertainment Industry".
