Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 473 You Can’t Rely on Others
The International Conference Center houses not only major domestic entertainment stars, but also foreign stars, officials, veteran artists and other celebrities.

Fang Hong was in high spirits in the crowd. Many people came to curry favor with him and couldn't help but look at him.

Everyone who knows him knows him, and even foreigners who don’t know him will ask who he is. The main reason is that he is so popular that everyone seems to want to praise him.

This makes some people feel a little unbalanced. Why can't they be as glorious as this person? After all, he is an international friend.

Song Seung-heon even asked his companions, "Who is this person? So awesome."

"Shh, don't offend him. He has a very good relationship with CJ. I heard that he is working with CJ to produce "Train to Busan." said the companion.

This shut up those Koreans. CJ is number one in the Korean entertainment market, and they can be pinched like chickens.

In a market like South Korea, every entertainment company has the shadow of a chaebol behind it.

After hearing this, Song Seung-heon's fiery eyes looking at Liu Tianxian couldn't help but extinguished a little. He really couldn't afford to offend her.

But Liu Tianxian is not interested in him either.

Any man here, seeing Liu Tianxian's dazzling appearance, the temperament she displays and the open-mindedness she shows in getting along with others, will involuntarily feel a liking for her.

There's no way around it. People who know her will want to be friends with her, and people who don't know her will find her pleasing to the eye just from afar.

It's just that since there's the principal by his side, I don't have many thoughts about it.

Since the venue was so large, not everyone could see Fang Hong, and not everyone had to know him to curry favor with him. There were still many aloof people.

Xue Xiaolu and Bai Yu had already returned to their seats, and their seats were together.

After dealing with those people, Fang Hong returned to his seat. Of course, he also saw Feng Kuazi, and the two looked at each other.

There were sparks and lightning in their eyes, as if both of them were displeased with the other.

He even saw Fatty Yu, who was sitting very seriously and didn't even look in Fang Hong's direction.

This situation is certainly not a place for conflict, but it does not prevent each party from calling the other an idiot in private.

Fang Hong and Liu Tianxian were sitting in the second row and chatted casually with Xue Xiaolu.

Then Fang Hong whispered to Liu Tianxian: "Look at Feng Kuazi and Yu Pangzi, they look like idiots."

"Haha, be serious." Liu Tianxian smiled and patted the leg of the man next to her.

Of course, there was no way she could actually go see those two people.

Her man cursed her casually, but he only cursed her and not others, so it was harmless.

In the front seat was Gong Huang. She looked back and saw that it was the principal. She extended her hand and said, "Principal, I have heard of your great name for a long time!"

As she spoke, she nodded to Liu Tianxian, and Liu Tianxian nodded in response.

"I've heard of your great name for a long time." Fang Hong stretched out his hand and shook hers.

"I heard that you organized a film festival, the Macau Film Festival." Gong Huang smiled, he seemed to be well-informed.

"Yes, I will have to ask you as a professional for advice in the future." Fang Hong said as a compliment. She looked a little weird in her smile, and her mouth seemed a little crooked.

This woman is like this. When you see her in public, you feel that her mouth is a little crooked.

"What does it matter whether it's professional or not? As long as it's fair, everyone will be convinced." Gong Huang said.

"That's true." Fang Hong nodded.

Just as the two were chatting in detail, the originally noisy and noisy environment of the conference center became quiet, the lights in the guest seats changed and became dim, and the stage lights also turned sea blue.

The stage gives people a gorgeous, grand and warm visual effect.

The staff on site have basically all arrived, and there are some empty seats. If you want to come, you can come, and if you don’t want to come, you can’t come.

Gong Huang ended his chat with Fang Hong and gestured to look at the stage. There was a dance on the stage, and the dance was a costume show, changing into Korean costumes, Japanese costumes, and so on.

After the dance, two hosts walked out from the backstage, they were Zhang Guoli and Chen Chen.

Mr. Zhang has been feeling depressed recently and has to go out to work just because his son was arrested again recently. Being arrested twice has completely cut off his livelihood as a front desk staff.

My son lives a luxurious life, so how can he survive without making some money?

It is said that later his son went to play music and lived a good life in Thailand. So it is really important to have a good father. He doesn’t have to struggle and can reach the end of his life.

The two hosts made some jokes and said some connecting words on the stage, and then began to introduce the guests.

The distinguished guests introduced are the leaders of the General Administration and the municipal leaders. There is no need to introduce other people. People like Fang Hong are not qualified.

He is just a big shot in the entertainment circle. Outside of this circle, few people pay attention to him.

Although Chang'e Technology is currently developing in a positive direction and has achieved good results, it has not yet reached the point where it will be taken seriously by the big guys.

Then a short film was played on the big screen on the stage. The film showed the voice, appearance and smile of each judge, and each judge expressed his or her opinions on the movie.

Of course, the most eye-catching person was Gong Huang, who was the chairperson of the judges. The host thanked her specially and even jokingly paid tribute to her.

This made all the guests at the scene smile. Gong Huang crossed his legs and clasped his hands together to express his gratitude.

"You see, being the chairman of the jury has many advantages. You're the center of attention, and your status immediately rises." Fang Hong whispered.

"Then why don't you become the chairman?" Liu Tianxian asked back.

“If I were to take on the role, people would think that I was discriminating against people, which would be inappropriate given my status and would naturally lower the authority of the film festival, so it’s better that I don’t participate,” Fang Hong said.

“But everyone knows that it was you who did it. They also hung up a sign with your Jade Rabbit and Chang’e on it. Everyone knows it was you behind the scenes,” said Liu Tianxian.

"So I have to try to avoid suspicion. Reputation is not something that can be established in a day or two. It takes a long time. When people find out that I am just an organizer, not a participant, then my reputation will naturally accumulate."

Fang Hong said again: "Besides, no matter how you hold this kind of ceremony, there will always be people criticizing it. It is unavoidable. We can only say that it is relatively fair." Liu Tianxian nodded to show that he understood.

Although Han Jianv is the producer of Yutu, she is also the daughter of Zuoshandiao and graduated from Beijing Film Academy, so she is a pure academic.

With the blessing of multiple identities, the mainstream doubts will be reduced when the film festival opens. If it is rejected by the mainstream at the beginning and cannot withstand the pressure, it will be difficult to continue the Yutu film festivals in the future.

The initiative of the Macau Film Festival is still in the hands of the higher-ups, not in Fang Hong's hands.

As the two were chatting, the award ceremony finally began. This time, a total of eight Golden Goblet Awards were presented.

Best Film, Grand Jury Prize, Best Director Award, Best Screenplay Award, Best Actor Award, Best Actress Award, Best Cinematography Award, and Artistic Contribution Award.

For a Category A award like this, there is no such thing as individual nominations. As long as the movie is shortlisted, it has a chance to win. It depends on the judges' preferences.

So the competitors are all the nominated films, and anyone has a chance to win the award.

Normally, the chance of winning an award is one in five. For example, for the Golden Horse Awards, five people will be nominated and then one will be chosen to win.

And at an awards ceremony like this, the chance of winning may be one in a dozen or one in several dozen, which is very slim.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

So Liu Tianxian was always worried.

There is no big screen showing the nominees at this awards ceremony because there are many nominees but not the nominees.

The first award was for Art Contribution. The presenters were Dabaobei and Ni Ni. The two beauties walked to the front desk wearing sparkling floral dresses and smiling.

It’s just that her breasts are so small, it seems like beautiful women generally have small breasts.

Fang Hong tilted his head and said, "When will you come up on stage and present an award to me? Let me get some of the glory too."

"There's a chance. Wait until I get an award first." Liu Tianxian said softly.

"Then I won't wait until my hair turns gray!" Fang Hong looked at her.

"You have so little confidence in me? Maybe I will win the award this time." Liu Tianxian looked at him unhappily.

"I just want to see you on the stage where everyone is paying attention to you. This wish is too difficult to achieve." Fang Hong sighed.

Liu Tianxian nudged him with his elbow: "You did it on purpose, didn't you? I'll show it to you."

"I can't get it." Fang Hong said.

"If I can't get it, I'll beat you up to vent my anger." Liu Tianxian snorted, threateningly.

Then Fang Hong shut up, because he was always the one who got hurt.

In fact, Liu Tianxian herself had no confidence, mainly because it was too difficult to win an award.

But when this man interrupted her, she felt a little relieved, as it was not her turn yet.

After Dabaobei and Ni Ni finished chatting on the stage, the winning film of the Art Contribution Award was announced. It was the American film "Begin Again" and the winner was Alexander Gregg, whom I didn't know.

After this award was presented, the next award was for Best Photography. The presenters were a foreign woman and a Hong Kong man named Wenjun.

He is the short one, almost the same size as Zeng Aizi. He is so awesome. He not only produced "Sunny Days", "Young and Dangerous" series, but also "Lost on Journey".

He is also the chairman of the Hong Kong Film Awards for several terms.

But the amazing thing about this guy is that he exposed the dark side of the Hong Kong film industry and he is still safe and sound.

There were a lot of news like Li Lianjie's agent was shot, Liu Jialin was kidnapped, King Liu was coerced, etc., but he is still active and doing well.

This is much more courageous than Van Loon's plan to publish a book a hundred years later to expose some things.

Even in his current position, he doesn't even dare to say that he embraces the motherland. How can we expect him to say it a hundred years later? He probably won't dare to say it a hundred years later because he still has descendants.

You can protect it while you are alive, but how can you protect it after you die?
The Best Photography Award was won by the Chinese film "Five-Colored Divine Arrows" and the winner was a man named Luo Pan.

The award ceremony was relatively serious and the atmosphere was not that lively. Next, the Best Screenplay Award was presented by a Korean and a Chinese.

The winner was "Diplomatic Confidential", a co-production between France and Germany.

After this award, it is a time of gratitude and sharing the dream of young filmmakers: 'Let every young filmmaker have a chance.' That's what it said on the big screen.

After that was the Jury Grand Prize, which was presented by Liu Jie and Li Bailian. Li Bailian has been transformed.

He is active in major award ceremonies, either as an award presenter or as a judge, and has been promoted to a teacher-level figure.

They no longer want to act in any drama, nor do they bother to compete with anyone. They are heading for authority and capital.

Because people deeply understand one thing: the resources given by others are only temporary, and the real success is to become the resource itself.

In short, you can't rely on others!

The film that won the Grand Jury Prize was the Chinese film "Victory", and the winner was Zhang Meng.

After this award, it’s time for the Best Actress!

When the host said that he would present the award, Liu Tianxian couldn't help but sit up straight and his expression became serious and nervous.

Fang Hong glanced at her, and seeing the seriousness on her face, he stopped teasing her and waited for the results to be announced.

There were other nominated film actresses at the venue. Regardless of whether they had the possibility of winning the award or not, they all looked serious and looked very expectant.

As the music played, a Danish woman and a British man came out to present the awards. They chattered in English or some other language.

The general meaning is that the jury was unanimous in deciding who won the Best Actress award and there was no objection.
