China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 241: A film that promotes traditional culture? There just happen to be a few...

The Huabiao Awards will be broadcast live on CCTV Movie Channel.

At this moment, under the publicity of the media, the audience already knew that Guan Ling would also participate in this award ceremony.

Therefore, many passers-by who did not like to watch the ceremony sat at home on time and turned on the TV.

After all, Guan Ling will be involved.

Palme d'Or.

Chinese directors have only won two.

The first one was sixteen years ago.

And now, this young man, who is not yet thirty, has created a shot in the arm for Chinese movies!

Everyone knows that Guan Ling will win this Huabiao Award, but the question is, what award will he win?

This is also the reason why the Huabiao Awards have always been dominated by films with the main theme.

After winning the award, during an interview, she said with tears in her eyes: "If everything goes well, I should have won a Grand Slam award now..."

It's no worse than the professional host on the side.

Get a few!
This is what everyone is most curious about.

Xu Nuoxuan represents Wanwan this time. She has always been a shortlisted actress or award guest in the three awards. This time she is the host, and she is on the stage of the important "Huabiao Awards". She is very fresh.

When Xu Nuoxuan on the stage called out and invited six Chinese filmmakers to come on stage to describe their feelings for Chinese movies.

Ten will eventually be awarded.

The media's cameras have been directed towards the people in the audience.

When he heard that there was such a link, Guan Ling was a little confused.

Guan Ling:......

After all, the nominated films are all there.

It once caused discomfort among netizens.

Although the Huabiao Awards are also broadcast live, there is no rehearsal. Directors usually prepare some words that may win the award.

Just thinking about it.

With this kind of background, directors and actors all dare to come.

Expressing feelings for a movie usually requires some preparation.

There are many profound moments in Guan Ling's memory.

The Huabiao Award is a purely government award.

We haven't fully entered the traffic era yet, but this award causes the biggest controversy every year.

What won her the award was the role in "The Secret of the Dragon", which only lasted for a few dozen minutes.

On the stage, Cheng Long, Xu Nuoxuan and others as hosts were chatting with everyone.

Guan Ling did not prepare much.

But after all, she had been a host in Japan for eight years, and she was actually full of aura.

The Golden Rooster Awards was founded in 1981 and is jointly sponsored by the China Film Association and the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles.

For example, for the Outstanding Co-Production Film Award, nominations are relatively arbitrary, with the number ranging from six to eight, and four will be selected in the end.

For the Huabiao Awards, the proportion of all awards is 50%.

Han Sanpin, who was beside him, tilted his head this way and said with a smile: "Director Guan, I think you were quite good at speaking at Cannes last year. This time, there were originally five people scheduled, but I temporarily asked Director Tong to add you. Be good. It's a surprise."

none of them.

Other awards, such as Screenwriter Award, Director Award, Actor Award, and Actress Award, are all two out of four.

I thank you.

"You won't let me go up, will you?"

The most classic one should be Angela Angel’s Best Actress award...

Perhaps due to the request of the movie channel, four themed short films were screened before the entire awards closing ceremony, sorting out the glorious achievements of Chinese films in the past sixty years.

Compared with these two awards,

There are three main awards in China's film field, the Golden Rooster Award, the Hundred Flowers Award and the Huabiao Award.

It represents the highest encouragement from the government.

For example, for the Outstanding Feature Film Award, there are usually twenty nominations.

The judges of this award are generally composed of professional film practitioners, so the Golden Rooster Award can be said to be the most authoritative and professional award in the film industry in mainland China, representing the highest artistic level in China.

The Hundred Flowers Award is the Hundred Flowers Award for Popular Films. It is a film award jointly sponsored by the China Film Association and the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles. It is held every two years.

The Propaganda Department of the Communist Party of China, the State Grid, State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and the Film Bureau are the three behind-the-scenes agencies that hosted this movie.

Unlike other film awards, the Hundred Flowers Award represents the audience's views and evaluation of the film, so the award is determined by audience voting, so it is also called the "Audience Award".

When the six people were called to the stage, Guan Ling could only smile bitterly and go on stage.

The three people on stage, Guan Ling, are quite familiar with each other. Brother Chen Kai, Zhang Ziyi, and Li Qiankuan are old seniors from Nortel. Guan Ling has read a lot of his "Founding Ceremony", "July 7th Incident" and "Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea" Over and over again, he can be regarded as an absolute theme director.

The other two are Yu Yang and Xie Fang, two national first-class actors.

As soon as a few people came on stage, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.

China's two golden palms are now up.

Inevitably, Cheng Long took the initiative to stir up the topic.

"Director Guan, Director Chen, in recent months, I am afraid that everyone has heard the names of these two directors impatiently, but today on the stage of our Huabiao Awards, we still need to express our congratulations to the two directors. .The two of them have now won two Palme d'Or for helping Chinese films."

Cheng Long said this sincerely.

Brother Chen Kai had a smile on his face, but his heart was full of sourness.

In fact, it is quite good to be a loner.

Brother Chen Kai felt that he was being congratulated, but Cheng Long was really a bit rude.

Because it was already sixteen years ago that I won the award.

Speaking of it now, apart from appearing to be complacent, there seems to be nothing worthy of congratulations.

"So, when you two see that in the past sixty years, Chinese movies have grown from scratch, from shallow to deep, and have gradually begun to march towards the world. How do you feel in your hearts? What do you think of the future of Chinese movies? You see? What kind of expectations do you have?"

When Brother Chen Kai was preparing his lyrics yesterday, he didn't expect Guan Ling to come up.

The organizing committee really didn’t say anything.

Standing next to Guan Ling, Brother Chen Kai's face felt a little hot.

"Why, did you pull me up here just for comparison?"

He was the one who won the Palme d'Or. Mine was gone early!
Going global, if I don’t think so, Hollywood has directly set up independent production companies!

Are you doing a controlled trial? Did you bring me a control group?

Under the camera, Brother Chen Kai's smile gradually froze on his face.

By the time he reacted, the footage had already been broadcast.

……

Mainland audiences and netizens have high expectations for the Huabiao Awards.

The online media also started to work early.

When Brother Chen Kai's smile was zoomed in and shown in close-up, netizens instantly burst into laughter. "Laughing, I'm afraid it's just Director Chen's protective look. Did you see it? His face is trembling!"

"Director Chen was still smiling when he came on stage, but now I feel like he is cursing."

"I think this comparison is indeed a bit disrespectful. Brother Cheng Long's congratulations may be very harsh to Brother Chen Kai."

As the focus of tonight's entertainment circle.

The clues on the stage will soon be transferred to various online forums and blogs.

"Brother Chen Kai has a bad face" quickly became a hot meme among everyone.

"Brother Cheng Long's hosting is still amateurish. The two blows in it made Director Chen suffocated. After living for such a long time, he can't beat Guan Ling. I'm afraid he won't have any confidence to answer questions later."

Brother Chen Kai is still strong, and he has probably assessed his situation well.

After picking up the microphone, he found a way to break the situation in an instant.

"For Chinese films, I look forward to more excellent directors like Director Guan appearing. Some people laughed at me and was photographed on the beach. In fact, I am not that stingy. I was photographed when I was photographed. Pai Pai Just don’t die.”

This statement has a pattern, and netizens praised it.

It would be better if his face wasn't dark.

Then Brother Chen Kai said, "Before talking about my expectations for Chinese movies, I first have to explain a rumor. Recently, many people have spread that I want to join some other nationality. I must first make a clarification on this point. I am Chinese Nationality, I think it’s not a shame that I’m Chinese.”

This was originally prepared for his acceptance speech, but he used it directly this time. Although he could not win back a victory, he would not be naked on the stage and act like a monkey being played by others.

After saying these words, the audience burst into applause, and Guan Ling also applauded.

It was just that the internet was talking about green cards. Guan Ling didn't take these words seriously.

When others ask questions, you answer questions.

Then Brother Chen Kai began to express his enthusiasm for Chinese movies.

"The reason why I was willing to spend a lot of time filming "Mei Lanfang" before, and the reason why I am now willing to retreat to prepare my script for "The Orphan of Zhao" is essentially because I believe that Chinese culture is not weaker than other cultures. Yes, I refined the script and worked hard on filming, just because I want to consistently inherit and spread Chinese culture. Just like "Farewell My Concubine" back then.

In this regard, Director Guan and I are both the same and different.

In "Shoplifters", what I saw was the connotation in Guan's film, the contradiction in the maintenance of blood ties and emotional ties.

But I hope that in the future, more Chinese directors will be able to shoot more types of movies and more feature films.

Let China’s symbols bloom on the world stage.

So today in front of everyone, I also have to thank Director Guan, who truly allowed Chinese films to stand on the highest stage in Cannes again after many years. "

After saying this, someone in the audience applauded.

Guan Ling was also laughing, but it was obvious that he was not smiling happily.

Jiang Wen looked at Ning Hao behind him and said: "Director Chen has a lot of experience. After going back and forth, he has completely eliminated any embarrassment left.

On the contrary, he killed Guan Daoyi's army. "

Ning Hao didn't understand, and his big confused eyes were revealed.

"There is something in what Chen Kai said. He said that Director Guan did not film Chinese Culture."

Ning Hao was shocked.

After all this back and forth, why are there still flashes of swords and shadows? !

If Guan Ling hadn't been struggling for so many years in his previous life, he might have thought that Brother Chen Kai was complimenting himself, but Jiang was still very old.

Although I was able to clap the table with Liu Yan at the interview table, the extra salt I ate actually gave me a little brain.

The camera also cut to the two people who were whispering.

"What secret are these two talking about? Why is there such a dumbfounded movement in Ning Hao's eyes?"

"Am I the only one who thinks what Director Chen said is a bit wrong?"

"Is Director Chen saying that his movies are all about spreading traditional Chinese culture, while Director Guan's movies have no cultural significance except for their connotations and the fact that they are Chinese films?"

"Some people on Douban gave "Shoplifters" a low score before. They said that the characters photographed by Director Guan exist in China. That is a smear campaign against China. How could there be such a person in the land of China?"

"All unreasonable situations should not exist."

As Brother Chen Kai finished his speech, Guan Ling raised the microphone.

"Thank you, Director Chen. Director Chen's congratulations are very touching to me. This is not only the inheritance of the Palme d'Or, but also the inheritance of Chinese cinema.

I have always wanted to make commercial films, even "Shoplifters". Whether it is the title of the film or some of the character settings, it is originally built for the commercial attribute.

But my weakness may be Director Chen’s strengths, such as the construction of stories about traditional characters and traditional culture.

In fact, my future plans include a Chinese science fiction film and a Chinese drama film.

For the first of these two movies, I intend to let the whole world know that Chinese people can also make good science fiction films. Maybe China’s film industry is not as good as Hollywood, and maybe the current Chinese filmmakers have not learned the most advanced technology. Those visual effects craftsmanship, but on a story level.

The story of the Chinese people is even more dizzying.

The second film, I originally considered this drama to be a sequel to "Shoplifters". "Shoplifters" raised the question whether blood relationship is important.

And this movie wants to let everyone know the importance of memory under blood ties.

But what Director Chen said just now makes me agree very much.

As a Chinese director, Chinese-language films are the bridge that conveys Chinese films to the world, but they only convey the story and the core.

It’s not necessarily the culture that’s conveyed.

But I happen to have a few movies that promote traditional culture...

Maybe I'll consider photographing them sooner rather than later. "

If it is said that Brother Chen Kai is smiling, he is hiding his sword.

Guan Ling's response was the sound of swords and swords.

He is not used to Brother Chen Kai's faults.

When Guan Ling's words came out, the audience burst into applause.

And many actors’ ears almost stood up at this moment.

"Three movies!"

Cheng Long on the stage was also stunned.

Xu Nuoxuan looked at Guan Ling, her eyes drawn.

Zhang Ziyi's eyes were dull and he didn't know what to say.

She had made peace with Guan Ling before, but she wasn't sure whether Guan Ling would ask her to act in a movie.

There was a huge wave in Zhang Ziyi's heart. He stopped doing things that he couldn't have sex with. He still had to watch the movie! If that doesn’t work, you can do it for free!

In the audience, Zhang Yimou looked at Guan Ling, dumbfounded.

This guy is really a quick shooter.

Jiang Wen shook his fist and said, "Awesome."

He originally thought that Guan Ling would suffer the consequences of being dumb, but he didn't expect that on the stage, Guan Ling would fight back!

Guan Ling's words on the stage were not finished yet.

Just listen to him continue.

“And for the next two films, I am considering continuing to compete for Oscars or the top three in Europe, and I am quite confident.

Director Chen, do you want to try it together? "
