1566 [Victory]
Chung Chuhong, who failed to win the award, was depressed, while Mei Yanfang, who successfully won the Best Actress Award, stood up happily.
This is exactly the moon shining on Jiuzhou, and some families are happy and some are sad.
"Miss Mei, congratulations" Xia Tian congratulated politely.
"Thank you, Mr. Xia." Mei Yanfang smiled happily, and then went on stage to receive the award.
Seeing her on stage to receive the award, Cherie Chung looked even more depressed.
"Ah Hong, don't do this. Look at me, I can't even nominate for nominations. You are much better than me." Seeing this, Lin Qingxia smiled and comforted Chung Chuhong.
She also performed very well in "Bloody Two", and she portrayed a blind actress vividly and almost real. But she didn't even get a shortlist, and she felt very wronged.
"Yes, I haven't even made a nomination." Guan Zhilin also smiled and comforted, "Sister Hong, I'm envious of you being shortlisted."
She also played the role of Thirteen Aunt very well in "Wang Feihong: The Great Ambition", and is considered a classic representative of her acting career, but unfortunately, she also did not receive the recognition of the judges.
After hearing what they advised, Chung Chuhong's mood suddenly improved a lot.
"Yeah." She smiled and nodded, and returned to her former spirit.
After the Best Actress, the Best Actor Award is the Best Actor Award.
The shortlisted included Zhou Runfa's "Bloody Heroes", Huang Rihua's "Pirate Pioneer", Zhou Runfa's "Fairy Tales in Autumn", Zhou Runfa's "Prison Heroes", Zhang Guorong's "Rouge Button", Zeng Zhiwei's "The Last Victory", and Da Shichang's "The Book and Sword of Revenge".
In this award, there are a total of seven shortlisted places, and Tianxia Pictures accounts for five, which can be said to be an overwhelming advantage. Zhou Runfa was shortlisted for three awards, which is simply a feat of unprecedented times and is even more surprising.
The competition for this award also proves Zhou Runfa’s supreme position in the Hong Kong film industry today.
In the Xinyi City, Jiahe did not have a male lead shortlist, which shows how declining their two companies have been.
The Best Actor Award was finally won by Zhou Runfa for "Autumn Fairy Tale".
"Fazi, congratulations." Xia Tian stood up and congratulated Zhou Runfa.
"Thank you, Mr. Xia," Zhou Runfa laughed, also very excited.
This is his second time winning the Best Actor Award, and I am really excited.
He walked on the stage in a hurry, got the trophy from the award presenter, and then delivered a speech on the winning bid, "I've won this prize for the second time, and I'm still feeling the same excited. I didn't expect that it was the 'bottle ruler' that defeated 'Xiaozhuang' and 'A Zheng'."
Hearing what he said, the audience laughed.
"I would like to thank all the judges here, thank you director Zhang Wanying, thank you Honggu, thank you all the crew members. At the same time, I would like to thank you Mr. Xia Tian. It was he who wrote such a good script that allowed me to perform so well. I am really grateful to him very much. Thank you!" Zhou Runfa said sincerely, then bowed deeply and stepped down amid the applause of everyone.
After the Best Actor, the Best Director Award will be awarded.
Shortlisted include Zhang Wan-chan's "Fairy Tales in Autumn", Wu Yusen's "Bloody Heroes", Xu Anhua's "Records of the Sword of the Book", Tan Guoming's "The Last Victory", and Guan Jinpeng's "Rouge Button".
The final winner was Kwan Jinpeng's "Rouge Button".
After hearing that he won the award, Xia Tian couldn't help but feel sorry for Zhang Wan-cheon, and Wu Yusen.
Because if it weren't for the release of "Rouge" in the same year, their "Fairy Tales of Autumn" and "Blooded Two" would have the potential to win the championship.
In his previous life, the 7th Academy Awards ceremony was when Zhang Wan-cheung won the Best Director Award for "Fairy Tales in Autumn". At the 9th Academy Awards ceremony, Wu Yusen won the Best Director Award for "Blooded Two Heroes".
After Guan Jinpeng came on stage, he also excitedly delivered his speech on the award and thanked Xia Tian in a key way.
"Thank you Mr. Xia for the script adaptation, which gave me the perfect material that made me make the movie so wonderful." Guan Jinpeng said solemnly, "Mr. Xia has half of the credit for this trophy."
After hearing what he said, Xia Tian felt warm in his heart.
After the Best Director Award, it is the Best Picture Award.
World Film's "Blooded Two", "Rouge Button" and "Fairy Tales of Autumn" have all been shortlisted, and the calls for winning the championship are also the highest.
And for this award, Xia Tian is determined to win.
"The one who won the Best Picture Award was "Fairy Tale of Autumn"!" The award presenter announced loudly.
When Xia Tian heard this, he jumped out of his seat.
"Congratulations to Mr. Xia!", "A Tian, congratulations!", "Boss, congratulations!"
Everyone around him congratulated him unanimously.
Xia Tian smiled and shook hands with everyone one by one, then quickly stepped onto the stage and took the trophy from the award presenter.
"Thank you everyone, I'm here again." He then smiled at the microphone, and a word made everyone in the audience laugh.
"I just published a long article, and some people must like it, and some people must not like it.
But if you don’t like it, I would like to emphasize again that “Fairy Tales of Autumn” can win awards not because it has a big investment or because it has a big scene. It can win awards because it is a good story.
Director Zhang Wan-seok, Fazai, Honggu, and all the crew filmed this story well so that it won the award in the end." Xia Tian said seriously, "If this story is not so touching, can it still win the Best Movie Award? I am very skeptical.
So I hope that all bosses don’t think about making quick money all day long, and don’t think about taking shortcuts all day long. You should know that the eyes of the masses are sharp. If you use shoddy movies to deceive him once, it will not be so easy to deceive him next time.
Only by putting your heart into the movie can you make a good movie. I will encourage you to share this sentence with you!”
After saying that, he bowed to the audience and then walked off the stage.
Everyone in the audience was stunned for a while, then they all applauded him.
...
After the Best Film Awards were awarded, the 7th Academy Awards ceremony ended here.
After the award ceremony, everyone went to the Grand Hyatt Hotel next to them to hold a celebration.
"Mr. Xia, congratulations, your World Pictures has really won a great victory this time!" Zou Wenhuai said to Xia Tian jealously.
This time, Jiahe was completely defeated, and even the best action design award before was taken away by Xia Tian's "Huang Feihong: Ambitions". Fortunately, Yuan Heping was still from Jiahe, otherwise Jiahe would have no face at all.
"Thank you, Boss Zou!" Xia Tian smiled.
Tianxia Pictures won a total of eight awards this time, which is indeed very small. You know, there are only fourteen awards in the Academy Awards.
However, Xia Tian was not too surprised by this result, because he had expected such an amazing result. If not, it would be a strange thing.
Since its inception, Tianxia Pictures has paid attention to the exploration and cultivation of talents, and also attached importance to the creation and investment of scripts. Therefore, it has achieved its current achievements in recent years.
In contrast, New Art City has been split frequently in recent years, consuming a lot of energy; while Jiahe has been stagnant, and has gradually become a follower of Hong Kong movies from the previous pioneers of Hong Kong movies. So no wonder the two of them performed poorly at this award ceremony.
"Mr. Xia, congratulations, you have won so many awards this time. Do you have anything to say to everyone?" The reporter stepped forward and interviewed.
"As it said, if you are careful to make a good movie, neither the audience nor the industry will do this hard work." Xia Tian smiled.
"Mr. Xia, you made your acceptance speech this time, but the firepower is fully opened. Are you not afraid of offending others?" Another reporter asked with a smile.
"Some words, even if you know that they will offend people, must be said. Because I love Hong Kong movies and I don't want them to be ruined, I am willing to speak up for justice. Even if some people are dissatisfied with me, as long as some people listen to what I say and make changes, I feel that my words have not been said in vain, nor have they offended people in vain." Xia Tian smiled again.
"Mr. Xia, when you were saying your award, you proposed to improve the treatment of screenwriters. Will you, Tianxia Pictures, be consistent in your words and deeds and set an example?" Another reporter asked curiously.
"This question is good. In fact, we, Tianxia Pictures, have not done enough in the importance of screenwriters. I apologize to you." Xia Tian nodded and said, "Here, I also assure you that Tianxia Pictures will vigorously increase the treatment of film screenwriters. Their pay will be increased by more than twice. At the same time, the films will be sold well and you can also receive a certain box office dividend. At least, no less than one percent."
Hearing that he said, the reporters couldn't help but lit up.
The box office of Hong Kong movies is generally around 20 million. One percent of the box office dividends are also as high as 200,000. For screenwriters who have always been treated less, this treatment is really good.
If Tianxia Pictures set an example, I believe that Hong Kong screenwriters will have a better life.
"Mr. Xia, do you have any regrets about this Academy Awards ceremony?" the reporter asked curiously again.
"I feel a few regrets. First, the award ceremony still does not pay enough attention to commercial films. Many excellent commercial films have not been nominated. This is what I feel most regretful." Xia Tian nodded, "The second is that I express my regret for the two directors Wu Yusen and Zhang Wan-che. In fact, both of them have the strength to win the best director, but it's a pity that they ran into director Guan Jinpeng."
The reporters were surprised to see Xia Tian say this.
In fact, they asked this question just a test. Unexpectedly, Xia Tian really dared to answer, and he was really rude to answer.
"Mr. Xia, you have so many regrets. Do you think the Academy Awards should be reformed?" The reporters asked again without much trouble.
"I think it should be reformed. Although "Movie Biweekly" is the founder of the Academy Awards and has made great efforts to promote the Academy Awards in the early stage, as the influence of the Academy Awards continues to expand, I think it is no longer appropriate for them to dominate it.
After all, "Movie Biweekly" is just a magazine with a smaller circulation. In terms of influence and capital, it is not enough to raise the Academy Awards to a higher level. So I plan to suggest that the Academy Awards will be handed over to the Hong Kong Film Association next year." Xia Tian said again.
After saying this, the reporters were shocked.
