Chapter 210 Film Awards
“Xiaojun, let me take you home!”
As soon as Deng Lijun walked out of the venue, Yang Ye came over on a motorcycle.
This guy obviously came by car, and I don’t know who sent his motorcycle.
Deng Lijun rolled her eyes at him, turned around and saw Zheng Donghan, walked over and said with a smile: "Donghan, please give me a ride."
Zheng Donghan said quickly: "There is no space in my car. I came here with Ajie."
Deng Lijun said disdainfully: "That's just two people."
Alan Tam on the side said quickly : "There's me, there's me!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Chen You and others from Wen Na came over and said, "We are too!"
Deng Lijun was speechless and turned to them A middle finger!
Deng Lijun looked at Zheng Shaoqiu again, and Zheng Shaoqiu quickly waved his hand and said: "It's inconvenient, I have to send Ah Quan and Fei Fei. Fei Fei will take up three positions!"
Fei Fei is Shun Dianxia, She is the master of ceremonies tonight.
Huang Zhan held Lin Yanni’s hand and said cowardly: “Me and Lin Meiren are going to have a candlelight dinner later, so we don’t have time to take you!”
“You guys are so annoying. !”
Deng Lijun stomped her feet in anger!
Behind Deng Lijun, Yang Ye kept raising his hands to everyone to express his gratitude!
Yang Ye was so excited that Deng Lijun suddenly turned to look at him. It was too late for Yang Ye to let go, so he put it down halfway and stood awkwardly in mid-air.
Deng Lijun said angrily: "What are you doing?"
Yang Ye shook his hands stiffly and said: "What, I... welcome you to get on the bus."
Deng Lijun almost laughed out loud, but her laughter was gone.
She didn't want to be seen as a monkey here, so she suppressed her laughter and got on the motorcycle in three steps at a time. She took out the helmet from the trunk and put it on, and said: "Let's go!"
Yang Ye slammed the accelerator and said: "Hold me!"
"You have a beautiful idea!"
As soon as Yang Ye released the clutch, the motorcycle rushed forward and suddenly stopped again Come down. Deng Lijun groaned and hugged Yang Ye involuntarily.
“This is so good!”
Yang Ye said something sarcastically and drove Deng Lijun away in a hurry.
......
"Don't you invite me to go home and sit down?"
"No need!"
Deng Lijun returned the helmet to Yang Ye, After walking a few steps, he suddenly looked back, stretched out his hand and said, "Give it back to me!"
"What?"
"The key to my house!"
Yang Ye awkwardly took out the key and reluctantly gave it back to Deng Lijun.
“Goodbye!”
Teng Lijun grabbed the key, turned around and left.
Although Deng Lijun acted decisively, Yang Ye knew that she still had herself in her heart.
Because on the way back, Deng Lijun hugged him so tightly...
Yang Ye could feel her resentment and attachment.
Yang Ye glanced at the glass mask of the helmet against the street lamp. There were two shallow tears on it.
Yang Ye sighed, it's all my fault, I will definitely... chase you back.
This guy admits his mistakes and won't change them, and people want them too.
......
Deng Lijun returned home and sat silently on the sofa for a while. Then she went to the balcony to collect her clothes. She accidentally glanced downstairs and found Yang Ye sitting on the sofa. On the motorcycle, he did not go.
Under the dim street light, a lonely shadow!
Deng Lijun snorted, put away her clothes and went to take a shower.
When she came out from the shower, it started to rain outside.
Deng Lijun hurriedly looked out the window and found that Yang Ye was still not gone, soaking in the rain.
Deng Lijun looked at Yang Ye's lonely figure in the heavy rain, and her heart melted into bitter water. Just as she was about to call him up, Yang Ye suddenly turned around and glanced upstairs.
Deng Lijun subconsciously hid behind the wall, and when she leaned out and looked again, there was no trace of Yang Ye.
Deng Lijun stood blankly at the window for a long time, then sighed, turned around, and was instantly shocked!
"How did you get up here?"
Yang Ye was standing in the living room, dripping with water like a drowned rat, and grinned: "Climb over the wall!"
Deng Lijun just thought Get up, this guy is a kung fu master, he can do "light kung fu". Rumor has it that he once climbed up a castle with the help of two sticks.
“What are you doing here?”
Yang Ye shook his body, like a dog shaking its fur, and shook off the water all over, and said miserably: “It’s so cold, I want to come up and wash it. Take a shower and change clothes.”
"You can even climb up such a tall building. If your Qinggong is so high, your internal strength must be pretty good, right? You can dry it yourself!"
"Um... My surname is Yang, not Zhang. I don't know how. "Nine Yang Divine Skill."
"Then why do you have two hands?"
"Used to hug you!"
Yang Ye walked over. , holding Lijun Deng in his arms.
"Go away, go away, you're covered in water, go take a shower!"
"Okay!"
Yang Ye let go of Deng Lijun and ran to take a shower. Seeing that Yang Ye was soaked all over, Deng Lijun relented in the end.
She took a towel to wipe the water on her body. Thinking about Yang Ye's shameless misfortune, she felt irritated and couldn't help but want to laugh. Her mentality was extremely contradictory.
Suddenly I heard Yang Ye shouting in the bathroom: "Xiaojun! Xiaojun!"
Deng Lijun said angrily: "What are you doing?"
"I forgot to bring a change of clothes, can you help me get them?"
"Naked!"
"Are you sure I want to come out naked?"
"Wait!"
Deng Lijun took a set of Yang Ye's clothes, walked into the bathroom, and said: "Open the door!"
The door opened, and Deng Lijun was about to hand the clothes to Yang Ye, but he pulled him in.
......
Yang Ye was leaning on the sofa, crossing his legs, holding a copy of "Movie Biweekly" and reading it with gusto.
This issue of "Film Fortnightly" selected one of the "Top Ten Hong Kong Films of 1979", which aroused great repercussions in the industry. This list is not based on the movie's box office, although box office hits such as "Drunken Master 2" and "The Swordsman" are also included because of their novel shooting techniques.
The list is more biased toward films that are made with passion for movies and a keen sense of society, that directly face social reality problems, and have a strong personal style.
Anna Hsu's "Crazy Tribulation" is among them.
The list believes that these films more faithfully record the turmoil and changes in Hong Kong society, opening a new and exciting chapter for Hong Kong movies.
The term "Hong Kong Film New Wave" has officially become a banner.
These new wave directors are even described as "revolutionaries who challenge tradition"!
Zhang Minyi brought a piece of steamed Dongxingban to the table and said: "We will look at it later, eat first!"
Her face was very rosy, obviously she had been nourished by poplar leaves not long ago. Pass.
Yang Ye threw down the magazine and ran to wash his hands. When he returned to the dining table, Zhang Minyi had already served the rice.
Yang Ye poked the fish like snowflakes with chopsticks, dipped it in the sauce, put it in his mouth to taste, and praised: "Smooth and tender!"
Zhang Minyi picked up a piece of green vegetables, put it into the bowl, and said: "There is a man named Chen Baisheng, the editor-in-chief of the magazine you just read. He came to me and said that he wanted to hold a Hong Kong film awards ceremony, hoping to win our Hong Kong film award ceremony. The support of the radio station.”
Yang Ye was stunned: It’s ahead of schedule! It seems that the early prosperity of Hong Kong movies prompted Chen Baisheng and Shu Qi to put this idea on the agenda in advance.
Yang Ye asked: "What do you think?"
Zhang Minyi said: "They think that Hong Kong movies have developed to a certain scale and have a place in Asia and even the world, but they do not have their own The film festival doesn’t even have an official organization for the filmmakers, which is abnormal. I think what they said makes sense. But I’d rather hear your opinion!”
Yang Ye shook his head and said. "I am the boss of a film company, and the awards must be fair, so why don't I get involved?"
Zhang Minyi disagreed: "I just want to listen to your opinion. I didn't ask you to get involved. Don't think too much."
Yang Ye chuckled and said: "Through the form of selection and awards, performance will be evaluated." It is a consistent practice in the film industry around the world to praise outstanding film workers and review the performance of films in the past year. Of course I support it! But..."
Yang Ye changed the topic: "What if? Their idea is to hold a local Hong Kong film award that only serves Hong Kong films. That is too small and I don’t support it.”
Zhang Minyi raised her eyebrows and asked, “What do you mean? "Really?"
Yang Yip said: "Hong Kong is now the center of the entire Chinese world's entertainment industry. If we want to organize film awards, of course we should include all the movies from the entire Chinese world."
"Isn't it the same as the Golden Horse Awards?"
"There is a difference. We want to cover a wider range than the Golden Horse Awards. The Golden Horse Awards only select films from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and we select The scope also includes Singapore, Malaysia, and even...the Mainland. The ultimate goal is to win the Golden Horse Award."
Zhang Minyi said in surprise: "The Mainland?"
"This is just an idea. , it’s definitely not possible now, otherwise the people in Taiwan will go crazy. But sooner or later this day will come. We are just planning for the rainy day!
Now, we are aiming to be on par with the Golden Horse Awards. Having held the Golden Melody Awards twice is already very good.”
Zhang Minyi looked at Yang Ye with admiration. He is indeed the man I like. He is always so far-sighted in seeing things.
Seeing the woman looking at him with admiration, Yang Ye felt a little proud and continued: "Our first Golden Melody Awards can be said to be very successful. It caused a stir in Hong Kong and Taiwan. The reason for the great response is that we are fully prepared, the awards are very complete, and the candidates for the awards are also more convincing. If the first film award is held, it must be based on the standards of the Golden Melody Award.”
Zhang Minyi stopped eating, ran to get a small notebook, and said: "You tell me, I will remember it."
"Um, let's eat first. What do you say when you are hungry? ”
“Then eat quickly”
The two of them worked together to finish a bowl of rice. After cleaning up the bowl and chopsticks, they made a pot of tea and started talking.
Yang Ye took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said: "Everywhere in the world has its own exclusive film awards. The most successful one is naturally the Academy Awards. In recent years, France and Japan have Following the example of the United States, we have created our own Academy Awards, which are very successful. Of course, we can also benchmark them, so we suggest that the name of our film awards be called the 'Chinese Film Awards.'"
Yang Ye is very ambitious. Instead of naming it "Hong Kong Film Awards", he insists on naming it "Chinese Film Awards". From the name, he will eat up the "Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards" of. It’s even bigger than the “China Film Golden Rooster Awards” that will be launched next year.
Yang Ye is very indifferent to the Golden Rooster Award. In his opinion, this is probably the most expensive film award in the world.
First of all, this jackpot is often messed up, and it often lays "double yolk eggs" or even "triple yolk eggs", which is rare in the world and very disgusting.
A single award can win three movies at the same time, which is really sick!
Then, in order to take care of Shao Min, this award-winning actor often inexplicably chooses Shao Min's movies that he has never heard of before, and then gives them a grand prize.
Also, the awards it hands out often fail to convince the public. For example, one year the best feature film went to a movie called "Flying".
This movie has a funny rating of 3.2.
Although you are teased and often criticized for having a crooked butt, your score is 3.2. This cannot be explained by a crooked butt, right?
A high-scoring film may not necessarily be a good film, but a low-scoring film is obviously relying on the defense.
Then why did this crappy movie still win an award? Are the judges blind? Of course not, there are ZZ tasks!
This is actually true. Some mission movies should be commended.
But the problem is, there is already a Huabiao Award doing this.
Why do you want to interfere with the Golden Rooster Award?
Aren't you showing off your art when you ride a horse? Didn’t you brag that you “don’t recognize any of your relatives, only your works”?
Also, this crap thing has only been held once every two years for a long time. The timeliness is particularly poor. Many movies have been forgotten and can still be nominated.
What is the purpose of the awards? To summarize the achievements of the previous year and promote the prosperity of the film industry, which company only makes a year-end summary every two years?
Finally, and most importantly...the number of Golden Rooster Awards is fixed.
It cannot increase or decrease.
If a new standing award is added, one standing award must be reduced. On the contrary, if one award is reduced, one award must be added.
Brother, movies are constantly developing, and you have to keep up with the changes of the times!
The biggest signature of Chinese-language films is "action movies", but the Golden Rooster Award... actually does not have the award for "Best Action Design".
Before 2000, action movies in mainland China were very rare.
But after 2000, the focus of Chinese-language films shifted from Hong Kong and Taiwan to the mainland, and a large number of martial arts and action films came into being.
In addition to the Dee Renjie series, "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" and "Fall of Swords" brought by Hong Kong directors, mainland directors have also shot films such as "The Spring Knife" and the "Wolf Warrior" series.
Action movies have already exploded, but the Golden Rooster Awards still haven’t thought of adding a “Best Action Design” award.
To the extent that movies like "Detective Chinatown" have to go to Taiwan to win the "Best Action Design" from the Golden Horse Awards.
Is it a shame?
After 2010, heavy industry blockbusters began to be produced in the Mainland. Movies such as "The Wandering Earth" emerged at the historic moment, and various special effects blockbusters emerged one after another.
The Golden Rooster Awards have never thought of setting up an award for "Best Visual Effects" to promote the development of visual effects films.
To say it is the most valuable film award is not to discredit it!
......
Of course, the Academy Awards are also very expensive. Since its establishment, this award has been very closed and only evaluates local Hong Kong films.
In the later co-production era, there was even an unwritten rule that non-Hong Kong actors could not win the best actor award.
So... the Best Actor award at the Academy Awards turned into a bunch of veterans who were ranking based on their seniority.
Li Lianjie is an exception. He has won the Academy Award, but he is not an exception.
Because Jet Li has been making Hong Kong movies during his peak period, he can also be regarded as a Hong Kong actor.
Even so, he has been waiting for decades to win the Academy Award.
Is it a matter of acting skills?
Of course not!
This guy is extremely talented. Not only is he good at kung fu, he is also very good at acting. Doesn’t Huang Feihong deserve to be an actor?
To put it bluntly, it is xenophobic.
Although Yang Ye is in Hong Kong, he is a time traveler, essentially a mainlander, and xenophobia means xenophobia.
Can he let these Hong Kong guys do this?
Therefore, in Yang Ye's vision, from the very beginning of its establishment, the Academy Awards should be widened in scope and eliminate xenophobic factors.
A region is often the most open when it is highly prosperous. And when it starts to decline, it becomes conservative.
Therefore, this space-time Academy Award has no seal on it since its establishment.
As for whether it can eventually grow into a big tree in the sky, we have to wait and see...
