Hollywood Director 1992.

Chapter 196 Award Ceremony
Including Bruce Lee's "Enter the Dragon" and "The Big Boss" cannot be counted.

After chatting for dozens of minutes, the 51st Golden Globe Awards for Film and Television began.

The Golden Globe Awards for American Film and Television was founded in 1943 and is hosted by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. It is one of the most important awards in the American film and television industry. The Golden Globe Awards has a total of 24 awards, 13 film awards and 11 television awards.

The film awards are divided into two categories, including Best Picture and Best Actor and Actress in Drama, Best Picture and Best Actor and Actress in Comedy or Musical, and other awards such as Best Director, Best Supporting Actor and Actress, and Best Screenwriter are selected together.

Last year, Guess Pictures released a total of five films. Although several of them performed well at the box office, the artistic level was not high, and only "The Wedding Banquet" was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film.

After more than three hours of judging, the awards were announced one after another.

"Schindler's List", which was released at the end of last year, won 6 out of 3 nominations and won Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay, becoming the biggest winner of this year's Golden Globe Awards.

The comedy film "Mr. Doubtfire" starring Robin Williams won the Best Picture and Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical, becoming the second biggest winner.

Tom Hanks won the Best Actor in a Drama Award for his outstanding performance in "Philadelphia", beating out four powerful actors including Daniel Day-Lewis, Harrison Ford, Anthony Hopkins and Liam Neeson.

Winona Ryder won the Best Supporting Actress award for her performance in "The Age of Innocence".

"Farewell My Concubine" won the Best Foreign Language Film.

"Haha, Link, it's hard to see you lately. I didn't expect you to come to the Golden Globe Awards."

At the awards ceremony, Harvey Weinstein walked through the crowd holding the trophy.

"Come here with Monica, congratulations on your award."

Link shook his hand.

"Haha, I got this for them. You know, I don't need this."

Harvey laughed and handed the trophy to his assistant.

Last year, Miramax Films released nine films, three of which were shortlisted for the Golden Globe Awards and received 9 nominations, including one for "Farewell My Concubine", seven for "The Piano", and three for "Blue of the Blue, White and Red Trilogy".

"Farewell My Concubine" won the Best Foreign Language Film, and "The Piano" won the Best Actress in a Drama.

It was a great harvest.

Miramax and Harvey Weinstein also became part of the focus of the awards ceremony.

"Link, I heard that you have finished filming your new movie. When will The Butterfly Effect start filming?"

Harvey sat down in the empty seat.

"The new movie has not been edited yet. The production period will take more than a month. I will probably have time to shoot the movie after April or May."

“Well, besides The Butterfly Effect, do you have any other film projects?”

Harvey Weinstein smoked a cigarette and said with a smile, "You know, although I can't make movies, I have some tricks in public relations for movie awards. I heard that you want to win the Oscar for Best Director. As long as you work with me a few more times, I promise to make you the youngest Oscar winner in history."

"That sounds great, and I look forward to working with you."

Link nodded and smiled, then talked to Harvey about the promotion of Pulp Fiction.

The film was completed at the end of last year. Due to scheduling issues, the film was delayed to April.

Two weeks ago, Quentin Tarantino took "Pulp Fiction" to the Berlin International Film Festival and won the Golden Bear Award for Best Director.

After Quentin won the Golden Bear Award, he took the trophy to Guess What Films and dangled it in front of Link, like a fisherman who caught a three-foot-long fish and would not be satisfied unless he showed it off in front of his fellow fishermen.

However, "Pulp Fiction" received good reviews during the film festival and was praised by many European media.

Miramax is confident about the film's box office and has decided to step up its promotion efforts.

Guess the film studio will cooperate with them.

After seeing Harvey off, Link took Monica around the cocktail party and congratulated director Spielberg who won the Best Director Award, Tom Hanks who won the Best Actor in a Drama, Robin Williams who won the Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy, Winona Ryder who won the Best Supporting Actress, and the crew of "Farewell My Concubine".

By the way, I also talked to a few people about cooperation.

After integrating Machine Pictures and Triangle Entertainment, Guess Pictures’ production and distribution capabilities increased more than tenfold, making it one of the most powerful production companies in the independent film industry.

If a few of you have a film project that the seven major studios are unwilling to invest in, you can consider Guess Pictures.

Several people agreed.

Although Guess What Pictures is an independent film company, all six films it produced and released last year were big hits, and the total box office revenue was no worse than that of the Big Seven film studios.

Currently, Guess the Movies has money and people, and is a very good partner.

"This Link looks very impressive. Even the famous director Spielberg was very polite when he saw him."

Zhang Fengyi, the male lead of the "Farewell My Concubine" crew, looked at Link in the crowd, a Chinese man walking around among a group of European and American stars. No matter where he went, those stars were very polite to him, making him look like a big shot.

"More than powerful, he is a human king."

Chen Kaige shook his head and looked at Zhang Fengyi, "You haven't heard of Link? That shouldn't be the case. Paranormal Activity, which he directed and starred in, has also been shown in domestic art theaters. Haven't you seen it?"

Because of the subject matter, of the three films that Link is credited as directing, only Paranormal Activity has been screened on a small scale in mainland art theaters. The other two, Buried and Final Destination, have not yet been released, but both films are also available on the pirated disc market.

"Paranormal Activity? That's not a very good movie."

"Shh! Keep your voice down," Chen Kaige said in a low voice. "From an artistic point of view, this movie is average, but its box office performance is high. The global box office is more than 6 million US dollars, which is more than 40 billion RMB."

"More than 40 billion? Just for that movie?"

Zhang Fengyi has seen "Paranormal Activity". The movie is very novel and the story is interesting, but it is a low-cost movie after all. The global box office of such a movie is over 40 billion yuan, which is higher than the total box office of all movies released in the mainland that year. This makes him feel incredible.

"Paranormal Activity was the annual box office champion in North America in 92, higher than Disney's annual animations "Aladdin" and "Batman Returns." Director Chen Kaige is very envious. If his movie can get a box office of 40 billion, no, 4 million yuan, he will wake up laughing in his dreams.

Another male lead, Leslie Cheung, said, "Hong Kong newspapers say that Mr. Lam is very good at making money. At the age of 22, he is worth over billion Hong Kong dollars, which is not much worse than the Li family and the Fok family in Hong Kong."

"Tens of billions? Is that true? He's so young, where does he come from?"

Zhang Fengyi looked at Link again. Just now he thought that he was young, handsome and talented, but now he felt that he was shining with gold all over his body and must be rich or noble.
