Chapter 401: The Secret Passage to Chencang at the Film Awards

Chapter 401: The Secret Passage to Chencang at the Film Awards
Since the press conference for the Film Awards was held, it was immediately known across the country, even across Asia, and even the United States and the West.

But it wasn't over yet. Suddenly, the entire Internet and even many media were flooded with advertisements featuring world-famous film directors, screenwriters, actors, critics, etc.

They all said the same thing in the video: "Abandon language, geographical restrictions, and ideology, let the film return to the film art itself. The first annual Film Awards looks forward to your participation. As one of the judges of the Film Awards First, I will uphold the principles of fairness, justice and openness, cast my sacred vote, and accept public inspection and supervision."

This advertisement still has some lethality, because there are thousands of judges, all of whom can be checked.

The newly established official website of the Annual Film Awards also details the information of each judge, which is publicly available and has been certified and registered on the Tuantuan Video website.

Moreover, through the introduction of the official website, the number of judges will eventually be increased to 1 before the official award. It also lists a mathematical model, voting room rules and procedures, how to be open and fair, etc.

The number of visits to the website has also increased by leaps and bounds, and many people have flocked to the website to view specific details.

"The film award with the largest number of judges in history will be born"

"The Film Awards, which are said to throw away all obstacles, will be held, we can wait and see"

"The so-called putting aside all prejudices, but there are still restrictions"

"Who is challenging Hollywood's layout step by step, the United States must be vigilant"

"The world needs a second Oscar, a more open Oscar, and it should be diversified"

"It is important to support He Fang's new film award and establish a more open and inclusive film award to allow global films to compete fairly."

……

Attitudes and comments vary from country to country, and netizen judges from each country are also different.

There are those who support it and those who oppose it.

Support the recognition of He Fang's idea of ​​breaking all restrictions and allowing more people to participate in the award evaluation. It does not mean that a movie that meets Western price values ​​must be a good movie, and a movie that does not comply with it must not be a good movie.

What I object to is that anyone is challenging Western ideology and Western values. This is absolutely not allowed.

How did the Berlin Film Festival come about?That is, the Americans want to organize a film festival dedicated to promoting the good of the Western system. This film festival will specially award awards to those films that promote the good of the Western system and expose the bad qualities of the Soviet Union.

Therefore, with the persistence of the Berlin Film Festival, they slowly corroded the ideology of the Soviet people and were one of the helpers in the eventual collapse of the Soviet Union.

Moreover, the 'Annual Film Awards' held by He Fang may have a mediocre name and are not outstanding at all, but what they do is to erode the authority of the Oscars.

Because once the Annual Movie Awards set a benchmark in the hearts of various filmmakers, the Oscars will become an Oscar that only Americans or English-speaking regions care about. Global audiences will pay more attention to the Annual Movie Awards.

After all, their country's films cannot participate in the Oscars, but their country's films can participate fairly in the Annual Film Awards, and then compete with outstanding films from various countries.

It's like a country's national sports meeting. You can't compete with the Olympics. The national sports meeting is just your own people competing, but the Olympics is a competition for people from all over the world. How can this kind of attention be compared?
Some people on the Internet are also discussing that He Fang’s annual film awards are so open, which is obviously a competition with the Oscars.What if the Oscars also loosen restrictions and engage in global openness that "puts aside languages, regions, and ideologies"?Wouldn’t it directly kill the limelight of the Annual Film Awards?
In response to this discussion, wise netizens responded.

"This is a conspiracy by He Fang, which means playing cards. He Fang can have such an open film award, but your Oscar can't. Why can't the Oscar be open? Because only by not opening the Oscar can we control the output of ideology. Once the Oscar is not open, the output of ideology can be controlled. Let’s put it aside, the film that may win the grand prize is not a Hollywood film at all, nor a film from the English-speaking area, so what should we do? What is the point of holding this Oscar? Therefore, if the Oscars do not follow suit, they will lag behind the annual Film Awards in terms of form. If you follow, then Oscar’s ideological control will be dismantled. He Fang’s move is so brilliant, I admire him.”

"Then the three major film festivals also select global films and evaluate global film awards. Why can they control ideology in the same way? The Oscars cannot select global films?" Some netizens were dissatisfied and raised this question.

"Upstairs, the reason why the three major film festivals can select films globally and control ideology is because the three major film festivals adopt a nine-person judging system, which is a minority judging system. As long as they influence these nine Just one person is fine. But if you do things like He Fang’s, and there are more than 1 judges, and they come from various countries, then how can you control it?”

"Yes, the judges let go, and so do the movies, and then you lose control over which movies to choose and which movies to choose. This is wonderful. Although it is not the most brilliant, it can still give Americans a huge headache. of."

"I kind of don't understand why the Americans allow He Fang to organize this film award?"

Just when netizens were wondering why Americans allowed He Fang to organize this film award, a media reporter interviewed Sid Ganis, chairman of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

"Chairman Sid, what do you think of the annual Film Awards launched by Chinese director He Fang? Will it affect the status of the Oscars?" the reporter asked Sid.

"They have communicated with us a long time ago about where to hold this film award. The selection of this annual film award is limited to Asia and will not affect the Oscars. The Oscars have been held for more than [-] years, and during this period Because many new film awards have been established, they have always shaken our status. Therefore, I don’t think an Asian award can replace the Oscar’s status.

Of course, the concept of "putting aside language, setting aside region, and setting aside ideology" they proposed is indeed novel, but the number of high-quality films in Asia every year is limited, except for a few countries such as China, Japan, and South Korea, which are somewhat acceptable. Films, other countries and regions cannot produce such excellent films.

The quality of the films is not comparable to that of Western films, so there is no need to worry about this. Perhaps with the competition for the annual Film Awards, the Oscars will become even better. "

Sid Gannis said confidently.

"Mr. Sid, will the Oscars break the restrictions of language, region and ideology, and expand the scope of the Oscars' film reviews?" the reporter asked.

"Not for the time being. However, if some foreign language films are indeed superior, our Oscars have always been very open and will also give some awards to foreign language films. This has been proven in countless Oscars."

What Sid said is true. It is true that some foreign language films are also nominated for best picture, best director, best actor, etc., and even win best director, best actor, etc.

"Then the Oscars will not hold any party's annual film awards?" the reporter asked.

"This family wants to hold a film festival, and we can't stop it. American hegemony is not to restrict other people's legal behavior. We can only try to improve our competitiveness." What Sid said was very vague, that is, this thing may be beyond The general level has risen to a higher level.

Therefore, it is not something they can stop just by saying they want to stop it.

Many things are exchanges of interests and compromises. Since no one can win this award, it means that all the links have been connected.

Once the interview with Sid came out, the world understood.

Sid just expressed two meanings. One is to try to belittle the status and strength of the Annual Film Awards, and the other is to say that the United States cannot suppress the Annual Film Awards.

Now that even Sid has said this, many people who are clamoring to suppress the annual film awards have fallen silent and just said in a weird way that there are no good movies in Asia.

But in fact, it is not up to others to decide whether there are good films in Asia, and many people only see the award-winning aspect of the Annual Film Awards, and do not see the hidden line of this award.

In fact, the hidden thread of the Annual Film Awards is that it has reached an agreement with the film departments of various countries, that is, the nominated films must have the legal rights to be broadcast in cinemas, TV, and the Internet in various countries.

What is this?This is an alternative unified market, which breaks down the barriers of film promotion and distribution in various countries. This is another method of He Fang.

For example, in the Indian market, it used to be difficult for films from other countries to enter, right?So after signing this agreement, will the movie be included?That is a big market with a population of 13 billion.

Are other Asian countries eager for this market?Of course.

Similarly, China will also be open to other countries, so Indian films will have the motivation to participate in this award.

Moreover, in terms of proportion, the number of judges in China is about the same as that in India, and the number of judges in China is only less than [-]% more.

This makes Indians feel that this is fairly fair. The number of judges is about the same and the size of the open market is about the same.Although they still want the lion to ask for more shares, this is not possible.

When discussing things with Indians, they are very cunning and always want to take all the benefits to themselves. This kind of thing is very disrespectful.Because of the character of Indians, such a country cannot develop.

How can you always want to take advantage of others but fail to fulfill your obligations?Therefore, in order to prevent them from playing tricks, relevant provisions have blocked their way of playing tricks.

There are two ways of playing tricks. One is not to show a certain number of movies in India in accordance with the agreement, and not to show a certain amount and publicity on TV and the Internet.The second is that they hold on to the income from screenings and refuse to pay, which they often do. There is an international saying that 'India makes money, India spends it, and one wants to take it home'.

In order to prevent this, the agreement has long stipulated that it must accept the supervision and review of the organizing committee, and then transfer and pay the relevant expenses.

Regarding these equal terms, other countries think there is no problem and it is a very reasonable thing. This is the result of what they have done for so long.

 The monthly tickets are doubled at the end of the month. Dear veterans, please support us!
