Chapter 242 You can’t act like me (ask for monthly ticket)

The good thing is that after the answer was announced, there was no silence of several seconds or even three minutes.

Perhaps, everyone is too lazy to look at those old faces that appear over and over again.

This surprising result actually cheered up the guests and audience who had gradually lost their patience.

As for the controversy...

Which Golden Horse Awards can be without controversy?

Although Qi Hao's film is not the best in terms of directing techniques, as long as you consider that it is his first time as a director, you will immediately feel that this guy will definitely bring more surprises to everyone in the future.

Especially the filmmakers from the mainland, they will definitely applaud enthusiastically.

Since the decline of Taiwanese local films, few excellent works have been selected and they have long lost popularity.

But they still have to struggle to the death.

Every time they try to find gold in the shit and give awards to some weird art films.

Especially this time, Hou Hsiao-hsien served as the chairman of the Golden Horse Awards and called back director Tsai Ming-liang who had claimed that he would never enter the Golden Horse Awards again.

This inevitably raises the question of whether the organizing committee of this year's Golden Horse Awards will start to favor Taiwanese films again.

There were four nominations for Best Director. Although there were two mainland directors, neither "The Sound of the Wind" nor "Mei Lanfang" was nominated, which gave people a feeling of Tian Ji's horse racing.

Now that Qi Hao has won the award, everyone is naturally happy.

Qi Hao shook hands with the people around him, then staggered onto the stage.

He rose from obscurity and worked at the bottom for many years, so he knows best how he should perform at this time.

There is no emotion, it's all acting!

If you act too happy and complacent, you will definitely be attacked by the media.

Passersby will also think that you received this award in an unworthy way.

But if you act it out, show that kind of unbelievable excitement, and show that kind of fear and trepidation that there are always villains who want to harm me, you will gain a lot of encouragement instead.

"Here, come over here."

With two big directors on one side, Qi Hao became even more nervous.

I admit that you four can beat me as directors, but you are not as good as me in acting.

Qi Hao was pulled by someone, a trophy was stuffed into his hand, and then he was pushed in front of the microphone.

For at least ten seconds, he didn't open his mouth.

It seems like the person has gone stupid.

Ten seconds later, he tapped the trophy on his head.

There was an immediate exclamation at the scene.

Is it going to be a bloodbath on the spot, and then they will find a reason to launch a war for unification?

"It hurts a lot, it seems like it's not a dream!"

Qi Hao seemed to have regained consciousness. He took a breath and said with a sob: "Thank you to the Golden Horse Awards, thank you to the judges, and thank you to the screenwriter Zhang Meng, as well as Wang Qianyuan and Qin Hailu..."

Qi Hao thanked a lot of people, and finally thanked his team and parents.

There's nothing too fancy.

There are even some lags and repetitions in some places, but the emotions are sincere and touching.

Wherever the camera passed, the guests were deeply moved.

Thinking about their own sad things, some were even moved and wiped away tears.

Several big directors encouraged Qi Hao again, and Qi Hao went down with the fake trophy.

Yes, the trophy in your hand is fake.

All the trophies received by the winners on the stage were just substitutes. When they were crying bitterly on the stage holding the "fake Golden Horse", the "real Golden Horse" was being temporarily produced in the press center.

This detailed process also precisely reflects the "fairness" and "justice" that Golden Horse Awards Chairman Hou Hsiao-hsien had previously promised.

No one knew who the winner was until the last minute.

The last award was for Best Film, which was presented by Zhang Manyu and others.

As expected, it was given to the Taiwanese movie "Can't Live Without You".

Now that he has won a big award like Best Director, there is no way he will miss the subsequent celebration party.

Qi Hao went to exchange it for the real Best Director trophy.

Then he accepted interviews from various media.

You have to perform on the podium and in front of the media.

Love what you do. Since you are an actor, don’t forget your professionalism.

Anyway, he really didn't expect to win this award. It was a complete surprise.

"Qi Hao, what are your future plans for directing?"

It's really rare that Qi Hao has a day when he is not asked about scandals. At first, all the questions about him were about directors.

"I am still in the learning stage, so I hope to try a variety of subjects, accumulate experience in the process, and strive to become a qualified director as soon as possible."

There are various styles.

"The Piano in a Factory" is a realistic art film, "A Little Thing Called First Love" is a campus romance film, and "Mr. B." is an action film.

Three movies with three different styles. When you put them together, you can’t imagine they were shot by the same person.

“Will you gradually move from the front stage to the backstage?”

After most actors transform into directors, they will delve deeply into the field of directing, after all, their status in the entertainment industry is there.

Acting is purely a hobby for them.

"I don't think so. I am very passionate about acting and I will probably never give up acting in my life."

Qi Hao said sincerely.

Acting is a very interesting thing, especially when he steps into the real acting threshold and sees another world, he has the ambition to conquer it completely. After asking a few more questions, the director had asked almost all the relevant questions.

Seeing that there was still time, the reporters asked some other questions.

"I heard that you directed and starred in a youth campus movie with An Feng. When will it be released? Do you have any plans to release it in Taiwan?"

"It will probably be around Valentine's Day next year, or during the summer vacation. Whether it can be released in Taiwan depends on luck."

Qi Hao felt that there was a high probability that he would be able to get in.

The screening of mainland films in Taiwan is subject to strict quota restrictions.

According to Taiwan regulations, a maximum of 10 mainland-produced films are allowed to be screened in Taiwan each year.

These films need to be applied for by Taiwanese film companies, and the release list will be decided by lottery. Even if a film is selected, it still needs to pass the review of relevant Taiwanese departments before it can be finally released.

But this lottery is pure bullshit.

Whether you are allowed to go or not is still up to the powerful people.

Qi Hao won the Golden Horse Award for Best Director, and there is nothing sensitive about "A Little Thing Called First Love". As long as no one interferes, it will definitely get one of the ten spots.

I guess they would also be happy to give the spots to youth campus films.

“I hope that director Qi Hao’s film can meet Taiwanese audiences as soon as possible.”

"Thank you. I look forward to it as well."

“Are you interested in working with Taiwanese actors?”

The local media will definitely ask such questions, which is probably a test.

"If we can get along, of course we can work together. I starred in "The Warlords" with Gu Baoming. His acting skills are very outstanding and I learned a lot from him."

Qi Hao responded very skillfully.

In such interview situations, the media did not dare to ask particularly sharp questions. If they dared to ask, Qi Hao would really dare to retort.

But the consequences are hard to predict.

Qi Hao might be banned in Taiwan - but who cares?

Liang Jiahui was banned in Taiwan back then because Taiwan’s entertainment industry is extremely developed, and even Hong Kong has to rely on the Taiwan market to survive.

The mainland market is now the biggest player.

If Qi Hao was really banned, it would only increase his prestige.

In that case, we can't do anything to Qi Hao, but no one will come to the Golden Horse Awards next year.

Therefore, the most explicit thing to do is to ask Qi Hao whether he is willing to cooperate with Taiwanese artists.

As long as you listen, why not.

We are all Chinese!
Because he had to attend the celebration banquet, Qi Hao quickly finished the interview and was taken away to take photos.

First, I took a group photo with the main creators of "The Piano in a Factory" who were present today.

"The Piano in a Factory" was nominated for seven awards, but only won Best Original Screenplay and Best Director, two out of seven. It may not seem very impressive, but both are major awards, so everyone is already very satisfied.

Then take a photo with the best actor and actress.

Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress...

By the time Qi Hao finished taking the pictures, An Feng had already run away.

At the celebration banquet, Qi Hao once again became the focus.

Today's grand prize winners are Best Director, Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Actress.

The Best Director award is of great significance, and everyone will look up to Qi Hao.

"Hahaha, I'm looking forward to the day when I can work with Director Qi~"

The young actress held her throat and finally found an opportunity to talk to Qi Hao, but in fact Qi Hao didn't even remember her name.

As for the business card in your pocket, it will definitely be thrown into the warehouse later.

It's impossible to just throw it into the trash can, as it would be a big deal if someone photographed it.

Wang Zhiwen has suffered such a loss.

The celebratory party was crowded with people, including some young people looking for opportunities.

"Hello, Mr. Qi Hao, my name is Chen Yujie. This is my script "The Thief". Please take a look at it when you have time. Whether you are the director or the investor, I am very much looking forward to working with you."

"How about this, I have an email address here, how about you send it to me directly, and I will reply to you as soon as possible."

Qi Hao did not accept the other party's script.

Firstly, it was impossible for him to walk around in such an occasion with a pile of scripts; secondly, there was no contract or record, so he would not be able to explain clearly if something went wrong.

It would be better to exchange emails so that there is a record for reference.

"Thank you, thank you Teacher Qi Hao!"

The other party was overjoyed, because not rejecting him directly meant there were other opportunities.

"Hello, I'm actor Wu Zhongtian. I also want to be a director. Can I talk to Mr. Qi Hao?"

Another person with a dream.

Qi Hao would be more patient with such people and actually chat with them for a while.

Seeing that Qi Hao is so approachable and does not only communicate with bigwigs, more and more people hope to see him.

"My name is Lin Xiaoqian... I like pure love and healing movies, the kind where the reeds are lush and the white dew turns to frost; the so-called sweetheart is on the other side of the water, with a faint sense of alienation, seemingly out of reach, but very much in line with our traditional oriental aesthetic ideals and life pursuits."

"Oh, my next movie is of this type. I don't know if it can be shown in Taiwan. Why don't you leave me your address and I'll send you a disc when the time comes."

"Really? Thank you so much. I will go to the mainland to see it and travel at the same time."

Qi Hao had a very pleasant conversation with the other party and they even exchanged contact information.

"Teacher Qi Hao, my name is Ke Jingteng..."
