Chapter 462 Golden Eagle Award
At the end of October, the Golden Eagle Award of China Television opened.
The Golden Eagle Award is one of the three major TV awards, the other two are the Magnolia Award and the Feitian Award.
The Golden Eagle Award Organizing Committee sent an invitation to Xingchen Entertainment because "Wulin Wai Chuan" was shortlisted for the Best Long TV Series.
Zhang Chen has never been interested in these awards ceremony. Even if his own movies are not available at the awards ceremony before the release, he may go and see them. After all, winning an award is equivalent to advertising.
As long as it is released, the copyright is sold, and he has always sent individuals to receive the award.
Zhang Chen was too lazy to go to the Movie Awards, but this was the first time that the TV Awards had received the invitation.
It is because Xingchen Entertainment is too late to make TV, so far, only produced three dramas: "Wulin Wai Shi 1", "Wulin Wai Shi 2" and "Before Dawn".
He decided to join in the fun.
Shang Jing and Chen Xiaowei were also traveling with each other.
The organizers of the Golden Eagle Festival are usually Hunan Radio and Television, so the venues are usually in Changsha.
This time is no exception.
On October 27, Zhang Chen and his group entered the hotel designated by the Golden Eagle Festival and were about to go outside while they had time, but who knew that they were intercepted by reporters as soon as they left.
The media is not allowed to enter the hotel, so many reporters are waiting outside the hotel.
Zhang Chen was surrounded by these people as soon as he came out.
He originally thought that the other party was going to ask about the Golden Eagle Festival, but the reporter said, "Director Zhang Chen, do you have anything to respond to Director Jia Zhangke's remarks?" Zhang Chen was stunned. Chen Xiaowei next to him immediately realized something was wrong, so he immediately took a step back and called the company to find out if something had happened during their flight.
Zhang Chen also guessed that what happened during the period when they had no signal on the plane was on, so he simply asked, "Sorry, I just got off the plane and didn't know anything. What did Chief Jia say?"
The reason why Jia Zhangke called Chief Jia is actually quite interesting:
Jia Zhangke once wandered around a BJ store selling pirated DVDs. At that time, he was searching for discs but gaining nothing. When he was about to leave, the owner of the audio and video store asked him, "Do you want the "Platform" of "Chief Jia"?"
The boss mistakenly described "Jia Zhangke" as "Chief Jia", and later Jia Zhangke wrote this joke into his essay.
After that, movie fans began to affectionately call him "Chief Jia", and this title gradually spread.
The reporters excitedly said: "Just a while ago, Director Jia Zhangke announced in an interview with the media that some media in North America and Europe praised "The Good People in Three Gorges". The original saying is, "The Good People in Three Gorges" is a real good movie. We look forward to more similar good movies in China~'...
Director Jia believes that your previous evaluation of "The Good People in Three Gorges" was biased, and hopes that you will apologize publicly for this matter..."
After listening to the reporters' description, Zhang Chen was stunned.
"Is that true? I have little study, don't lie to me~"
He felt that this reporter must have a fabricated element, but what he got was unanimous affirmation from the reporter.
"It's like this~"
"We are sure, there is no exaggeration~"
On the other side, Chen Xiaowei also returned to Zhang Chen and whispered in his ear: "What I learned is similar to what the reporter said. Jia Zhangke wants you to apologize should be true..."
Zhang Chen was so upset: "I apologize? What apologize? Why did I apologize?"
Reporter: "Didn't you say "The Good People in the Three Gorges" is a bad movie?"
"Stop, when did I say "The Good People in the Three Gorges" a bad movie? I mean, "Is this the same thing?"
"How come you understand? I can only say that art films do not conform to the public's aesthetics, they are shot for specific groups of people.
This group of people thinks it is good, but it does not mean that everyone thinks it is good.
The New Year holiday is for ordinary audiences.
Do you think anyone would like to watch a dull art film during the New Year?
Don't be stubborn. Generally, when we describe a movie as boring, we will say it is very literary.
Or let me put it another way, the National Day holiday that just passed this year was a total of 400 million box office plates, "Crazy Racing" was 270 million, and "Baby Plan" was 110 million. How much box office do you think "The Good People in the Three Gorges" could be in the National Day holiday?
As is generally recognized, the National Day holiday is not a popular schedule, but the summer holidays and New Year holidays are the ones.
As for what Director Jia said, North America and Europe praised "The Good People in the Three Gorges", I don't care.
What do people want to say is based on their mouths.
And, are you sure they really praise it?
Is there a word called "Praise and Kill"?
Why do they not shoot art films themselves but call for China to shoot?
I guess with the greatest malicious intention. If the country strives to develop art movies according to their ideas, will it become a farmland in Hollywood and harvest whatever it wants?
Now, we have commercial movies like "Hero" and "Racing", but we still can't beat Hollywood.
Every time a Hollywood movie is released, someone shouts "The wolf is coming." If not, what would it look like in China have you ever thought about? ”
"But..."
"Don't do it~"
Zhang Chen didn't want to get too entangled on this topic because he couldn't figure it out at all.
"Didn't Jia Zhangke announce that "The Good People in the Three Gorges" will compete for the New Year's Eve? Then don't argue here. The old saying goes, it's a mule or a horse to pull it out. Isn't it over when you see the result?
The shooting cost of "The Good People in the Three Gorges" seems to be 6 million, so we can make a profit by following the industry practice. The box office of 18 million can reach 18 million. We will use 18 million as the standard. I apologize if I can't pass it. How about it? You can also help convey what I mean..."
Zhang Chen opened fire with BB.
It was really that he thought this was a bit unusual.
How to think about it, how to feel a familiar smell? Isn’t this the usual routine of the “American International Development” that was banned in later generations?
Imperialism's selfless heart is not dead, and Zhang Chen will never let them do what they want.
Getting rid of the reporters, the group shuttled through the streets and alleys of Changsha.
When you come to Changsha, of course you have to taste the local food.
Zhang Chen wanted to find a guide, and the first person he thought of was Teacher He.
But after asking, Teacher He is also the host of this Golden Eagle Award, so he should be very busy, forget it.
"Follow me, I'll take you to eat shrimp~"
"If you want it, you want it~"
Shang Jing is from Tianjin and also a favorite food. When he heard that there was something delicious, he followed suit.
The three of them stopped a car
"Master, is there a shrimp in Shazitang Night Snack Street very famous?"
"You have to."
"Then go there~"
"
Zhang Chen vaguely remembers this place. Last time he came to "Quaiben" to promote the movie, Teacher He took them there to eat the flavored shrimp.
"This restaurant tastes very good. Teacher He entertains guests from "Quick Book" and usually receives them here."
"Is it that delicious?"
"I tell you that when you come to Changsha, you must eat shrimp. The characteristics here have become the city's business card. If you don't eat shrimp here, it is equivalent to not coming~"
"Yes, yes, Director Zhang is right~" The taxi driver also changed to Mandarin to agree.
"Huh, do you know me?"
"Why don't you know? I love watching your movies the most, "Shaw Beach", "Hurricane Rescue" and "Silent Land", I have watched them~"
"
"Thank you for your support~"
"We can't wait when "Pacific Rim" will be released, not only me, but my son often asks when will Storm Red be released, and his room is now covered with Storm Red bean posters~"
"Haha, thank you, but the movie has to wait. It's more troublesome to shoot science fiction movies, well, maybe."
"We're going to have the New Year holiday next year, so some people are waiting~"
The few people chatted all the way and soon arrived at Shazitang. The driver stopped the car. "That's it. Go down the alley. The most crowded family is~"
"Master, if you are not busy, have something to eat~"
Zhang Chen has a good impression of this driver, so he simply called to have a meal together.
"No, I still have to run away, but can I take a photo?"
"That must be OK."
The driver took out his T108, and Chen Xiaowei helped take the photo, taking several photos on his face.
After the filming, the elder brother left with satisfaction.
Chen Xiaowei was still sighing from the side that this big brother is quite fashionable.
In this year, Nokia and Motorola are the mainstream, and Samsung's position in mobile phones is somewhat similar to that of Apple in later generations.
T108 is equivalent to Apple 4, 16 and roving. The pixels of photography are also high, and the price is even more than a few thousand, making it a light luxury rank.
The three of them walked into the alley and soon saw the hotel and the crowd lined up.
The business here is really hot, and his family's business is the best on the whole street.
"Hello, boss~"
"You are, Director Zhang Chen~"
"It's rare that the boss still remembers me. Is there a seat?"
"Uh~"
Zhang Chen knew that the boss often receives celebrities here, and usually has reserved private rooms. However, there are many people coming to the Golden Eagle Award in the past two days, and the private rooms have been occupied.
At a moment of depression, I suddenly heard a voice: "Director Zhang?"
Looking in the sound, I saw a familiar figure - Fan Xiaopang.
The person next to her is also an acquaintance - Sun Li.
Fan Xiaopang was waving at him with surprise on his face, "Here, here, we are only two of us, we can play a seat~"
"Is it convenient?"
Zhang Chen asked Sun Li. Although we are in the same circle, this is the first time we have met in private.
"Convenient and convenient~" Sun Li said as she moved the bag on the seat next to her.
"Then let's play table with them~"
After saying hello to the boss, the group walked into the hotel. "I really didn't expect to meet you here. Did you all want to go together?" Zhang Chen nodded specifically with Sun Li when he spoke. After all, it was his first time meeting.
Sun Li also stood up and greeted everyone.
Zhang Chen introduced Shang Jing and Chen Xiaowei to the two. "Last time I came, Teacher He invited me to dinner, it was here. I remember it was delicious, and I came here specially this time..."
The group chatted casually, and the diners around became more and more excited. I have seen big stars here in the past two days.
Yesterday it was Chen Baoguo, today it was Fan Binbin and Sun Li, but unexpectedly, Zhang Chen is here too.
Some people saw the rise of chatting among the few people, and were embarrassed to go up and disturb them.
But there are some people who are brave enough to go up and ask for a photo.
Zhang Chen and others were satisfied one by one. Later, seeing more and more people, Zhang Chen simply stood up and shouted, "Everyone, calm down and listen to me.
I will give you a drink, but I really don't take photos or toast again, which will affect the boss's business.
And like everyone, I come to eat and enjoy the food. Don't take us too seriously, and don't ignore the friends around you, otherwise we will have to run away~"
Zhang Chen finished speaking, and he drank it all, and there was a burst of laughter around him, but no one came up to disturb them again.
I finally got a good meal. "It's you, I thought we couldn't eat this meal today~"
Fan Xiaopang gave a thumbs up.
Zhang Chen waved his hand: "I like this kind of atmosphere. This kind of farmer and lake food must be of fireworks, and it is interesting to be noisy."
Fan Xiaopang clapped his hands: "Then you must also like Guijie~"
"It's true."
Shazitang is a night snack street. It is similar in nature to Guijie in Beijing, and the atmosphere is similar. It is all noisy. On the same table, you have to shout to speak.
Without the disturbance of others, everyone feasted.
Of course, there must be some people taking secret photos, but Zhang Chen doesn’t care, he is a boy.
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小�
Only Fan Binbin and Sun Li should pay a little attention to their eating habits.
The shrimp tastes delicious, spicy and rich, and fragrant. No wonder it has such a great reputation.
Zhang Chen is not very good at eating spicy food, so he ate a whole pot.
Sun Li on the other side was so spicy that she was sweating heavily, and she would wipe it with a tissue from time to time. She was from Shanghai and could not eat spicy food.
After chatting for a few words, everyone became familiar with each other.
Zhang Chen originally thought that Sun Li came here to receive the award this time, after all, she is a TV drama actor.
But after chatting, I realized that he had made a mistake.
This time they are not here to receive the award, but to present the award.
She and Fan Xiaopang are both special guests invited by the organizing committee.
And Sun Li won the Golden Eagle Award in 2003.
In 2003, she won the "Most Favorite Actress" award and the "Most Popular Actress" award for "Jade Guanyin".
The prize is an Audi.
"That Audi still belongs to you now?"
"Of course, why do you ask that?"
"Because Mr. Zhou also won the 'Audience Favorite Actress' and got one, and then it was confiscated by Rong Xinda~"
At the 18th Golden Eagle Award in 2000, Zhou Xun won the "Audience Favorite Supporting Actress Award" and the "Most Popular Actress Award" for "Da Ming Palace Poems", and the prize was Audi Auto.
Then turn around and the Audi becomes the company's property.
The reputation of Er Li Xiaoqi spread in the circle at that time.
Sun Li smiled awkwardly: "That's not the case, Haiyan is still quite generous~"
Sun Li is a standard TV star.
She has also acted in movies. She is the heroine in this year's "Huo Yuanjia", but it's useless and everyone doesn't recognize her.
Not many people can gain a foothold in the movie circle like Fan Xiaopang.
The audience's perception is very important.
Just like Jiang Wenli, she was a Grand Slam very early. She wanted to transform into a movie. Even though she starred in Zhang Chen's "Manslaughter" and got a good box office, it was still useless.
Audiences still think that Jiang Wenli is an actor in the TV series, which is difficult to change.
So once many TV series actors enter the film industry, they will never go back to continue filming TV series even if they have no scenes.
Because it is difficult for the audience to change their positioning of actors.
Once you are a TV drama actor, it is difficult to return to the movie industry.
"I heard that you are very popular in North America these two days?"
"Do you know?"
"Well," Sun Li nodded: "I have classmates over there, what they said to me~"
"What's the matter, what's the matter?" Fan Xiaopang's eyes were full of little stars.
"Yeah ~"
Zhang Chen took a bite of bullfrog, spitted his bones on the table, wiped his mouth, and then said, "It's a movie over the past two days, "Seeing the Devil". It's been very popular in North America. The script was written by me..."
"Ah, is it you the screenwriter of "Seeing the Devil"?"
I didn't expect that Chen Ziwei had also watched it, and it seemed that she was also a BT enthusiast. "What are you talking about? Why isn't it released in China?"
Shang Jing knew nothing about it.
"A cult film cannot be released in China. If you want to talk about the plot, it is probably a story about a policeman torture the murderer after his wife was killed by a perverted murderer~"
Someone roughly told the story summary, and Shang Jing was full of surprise.
Fan Xiaopang was relieved.
It's similar to "Lake Eden", but it's larger than "Lake Eden".
Zhang Chen's version of "Lake Eden" is different from the original version, and the ending has been modified.
The original "Lake Eden" is a European film, and this type of film emphasizes the sense of despair.
Zhang Chen's version emphasizes the feeling of pleasure.
The heroine turned evil after her boyfriend was killed by the naughty child. She was killed one by one and massacred all the people in the town at the funeral.
The ending is modeled after the Korean movie "Paradise Night", which is really a pistol, from beginning to end.
Seeing the Devil is actually similar to "Lake Eden", except that the target of revenge has changed from the entire town to the perverted murderer.
In addition to showing the cruelty of the murderer, the whole film is just the male lead's revenge.
Catch, torture, let go~
Catch again, torture, let go~
It's a game of cat and mouse, repeated, over and over again~
"Seeing the Devil" is very popular in North America because it subverts people's perception of perverted murderers. After "The Silence of the Lambs", Americans think that perverted the perverted murderers are very powerful and full of fear.
In subsequent film and television works, people have no ability to resist perverted murderers.
But "Seeing the Devil" does the opposite, and it plays the perverted murderer like a rat.
The perverted murderer is also human, it's no big deal. People see it more fresh, so it's so popular~"
"You seem to like this story of using violence to fight violence? "
"Yes, I don't believe that the prodigal son will not change his gold. I only believe that the evil people still need to be beaten by the evil people~"
...
No. 28, Golden Eagle Awards
The award ceremony was held in the multi-function hall on the first floor of the main building of Hunan Radio and Television Center.
The Golden Eagle Awards have always been willful. Sometimes there is a red carpet, sometimes there is no, it all depends on your mood!
This year's Golden Eagle Awards have not been on the red carpet, which is indeed unique among many award ceremony.
As soon as Zhang Chen and his group got off the car, they were quickly surrounded by major media. The problems were thrown over like guns, mainly focusing on the conflict between him and Chief Jia.
The scene was in chaos, the flash was flashing constantly, and the microphone was almost hitting Zhang Chen's face. "Everyone, everyone, I have said everything I should say about me and Chief Jia yesterday. Please help me convey it~"
With the strong assistance of the security personnel, Zhang Chen struggled to escape from the media siege.
The tie was squeezed.
Entering the award ceremony, it is a different scene.
Many people I know, Cheng Long, Zhang Guoli, He Jiong, and several super girls contestants...
Everyone is in their seats, and Zhang Chen waves to the distance.
He walked towards his seat under the guidance of the staff, and then he unexpectedly saw Jing Tian, and he was sitting in the first row.
"Jing Tian?"
"Director Zhang~"
Jing Tian stood up, Zhang Chen looked at her, and then looked at her position.
The first row is close to the central area~
Jing Tian probably also saw his doubts and explained quietly: "The organizer did not invite me, but I think an elder in my family gave me his invitation letter~"
Zhang Chen suddenly realized.
No wonder Zhang Chen's own seats are in the second row when he sits in the first row.
However, this girl is really... straightforward!
The two of them did not dare to talk much, and Zhang Chen returned to his seat.
After a while, as the music started, the awards ceremony officially kicked off.
First there was a singing and dancing performance, and the fairy sister sang it herself.
With the addition of Cheng Long and Lee Zongsheng and other heavyweight guests in the music scene, the stage was instantly ignited, and an unparalleled musical feast was presented to everyone.
Singing, cheers and applause are intertwined, immersing the entire venue in a warm atmosphere.
Then with the opening of host He Jiong and Cao Ying, the award ceremony officially began.
Nothing too surprising, it's actually just sitting in a row and dividing the cake.
The Best of the Best Actress Award, which is the so-called "Most Popular Actor Award", is Zhang Guoli and Jiang Qinqin.
The audience burst into applause.
Jiang Qinqin was already big at this time, and Chen Jianbin helped her up on the stage.
The two also shared their love story of getting to know each other, which was a highlight of the awards ceremony.
Zhang Chen never thought that "Wulin Waizhi" would win the Best TV Series Award. There are too many good movies, "Bright Sword" and "Sky of History", it is not its turn.
The best TV series was finally won by Ren Changxia. "Wulin Waiji" only won one excellent TV series award, and there was nothing to be excited about, because there were 11 TV series that won the award at the same time, and "Wulin Waiji" was just one of them.
Many people think it is easy to shoot sitcoms, but it is not. Sitcoms are just simpler to shoot, but it is actually very difficult to shoot well, which is much more difficult than ordinary TV series.
The requirements for scripts and actors are higher than those for regular TV series, which is also the reason why there were fewer and fewer outstanding sitcoms in the next few years.
The entire award ceremony of the Golden Eagle Awards is actually not very meaningful, and commercialization is not enough.
But this session has an additional link of the "Golden Eagle Goddess".
According to the conditions announced by the Golden Eagle Award, the selection of the "Golden Eagle Goddess" is a comprehensive result after referring to the influence, popularity and appearance conditions of the work.
Liu Tianxian won this honor.
Wearing in gorgeous clothes and a brilliant crown on his head, he made a stunning appearance.
If you want to say that Liu Tianxian deserves to take down the Golden Eagle Goddess.
In terms of popularity, she is the hottest this year.
With the popularity of the three dramas "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", Liu Tianxian has been a goddess for more than ten years and has dominated most of the Chinese entertainment industry.
In Chinese Entertainment, it’s okay if you ruin anyone. If you dare to ruin Liu Tianxian, you will be reported immediately~
