"Why is he here again? Let him in!" [As I write this, I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network→🅣🅦🅚🅐🅝.🅒🅞🅜] "OK!" Chen Qi straightened his clothes, and after a while, Shu Qi walked in. Shu Qi is the editor-in-chief of "Film Fortnightly", a famous film critic in Hong Kong, and has also written scripts. People always confuse him with the actress Shu Qi. Shu Qi's real name is Lin Lihui, a Taiwanese. Wang Jing brought her from Taiwan to Hong Kong and wanted to give her a stage name, so he took two characters from "Qinqi, calligraphy and painting" and called it "Shuqi". This argument is of course untenable, as she has nothing to do with chess, calligraphy and painting. It is said that the truth is that this film critic Shu Qi always wrote articles to criticize Wang Jing. Wang Jing simply named a third-level actress with the same name, which disgusted him. Wang Jing has often done this kind of thing, such as in "Mouse Hard", the role played by Zhang Xueyou is Chi Guoguo's taunting Cheng Long... At this moment, film critic Shu Qi entered the office and said, "Mr. Chen, this year's Academy Awards will be held at the Regent Hotel on April 3. I'm here to send you an invitation letter." "I seem to have already refused. I'm going to the United States and don't have time to participate."
"But "Life is Beautiful" is one of the top ten best films of the year. It would be a pity not to have the main creator present." "What's the pity for the top ten films? If you give me the best film, I will definitely support it." Shu Qi couldn't answer and could only laugh. Chen Qi said: "Look, this is our contradiction. I have always emphasized that the Academy Awards should not be regionalized and should serve the entire Chinese film industry. "Life is Beautiful" was produced in mainland China and was not eligible to participate. This kind of thing is very cheap.” "But the original intention of the Academy Awards was to cater to Hong Kong films. We have already allowed co-production films to participate in the competition. In fact, you can be a co-production film." "Why should I make a co-production? It's your shame that "Life Is Beautiful" couldn't win the Academy Award, not ours. When will you change the rules, when will I go!" "OK! OK! We have different ideas. Don't argue. I'm sorry you don't have time to participate. I hope I have the opportunity in the future." Shu Qi is a cultural person and will definitely not compete on the spot, so she ends the conversation rationally. He turned and walked out, Another voice came from behind: "You don't have much time, think about it carefully, otherwise I won't mind creating a new award!" New prize? Shu Qi's whole body was agitated, her steps paused slightly, and she ran out in a panic. This year is only the third time for the Academy Awards. It is hosted by a magazine with very low authority and everyone only participates out of consideration. The left wing is very powerful. If a new award is created, it may have greater influence than the Academy Awards. When Chen Qi saw him leaving, he found a newspaper to read. Something that has something to do with me: Li Hanxiang's "Curtain Behind the Curtain" received eight nominations for Best Picture, Director, Male Lead, and Female Lead. The male lead was Liang Jiahui, and the female lead was Liu Xiaoqing. The literary film "Half Man" produced by Yindu received 9 nominations. "Shanghai Nights", also produced by Yindu, received 6 nominations, including Best Director for Tsui Hark, Best Actress for Zhong Chuhong, and Best Screenplay for Mr. Dongfang Ren! Ye Tong was nominated for the leading actress for "My Love in Seven Days", and the screenwriter of "My Love in Seven Days" was also Mr. Dongfang Ren, and he got another nomination, a double nomination! "Why should I go to such an Academy Award? Quan Te Niang is my vest!" Mr. Dongfang Ren is very famous in Hong Kong. He has directed several popular movies and recently wrote lyrics, which is a cross-border development. Many companies wanted to ask him to write scripts, but they had never met him in person and could only contact him in a roundabout way. The fee is very expensive, the one-time price is HKD 80,000!
"Speaking of which, I'm also looking forward to standing on the stage to accept the award openly. It will be interesting to see what the reaction is." Chen Qi's bad taste is up again, unified Hong Kong entertainment, and the Academy Awards are naturally included. The first nine Academy Awards had no fixed venue, no fixed trophy, no television broadcast, and no organizing committee. It has been formalized since the 10th session, reached its peak in the 1990s, and expanded to the mainland at the beginning of the new century. At that time, a mainland actress won the Academy Award for Best Actress. Wow, it was a very honorable thing. It’s April 3rd in the blink of an eye. The Regent Hotel is in a prime location in Victoria Harbor and enjoys the best harbor view. It was opened in 1980 and is very, very new. In the evening, guests from all walks of life arrived one after another. Fu Qi led the Yindu team, and Li Hanxiang had his own company. They brought Liang Jiahui and Liu Xiaoqing. Yes, Liu Xiaoqing came to Hong Kong. Zhuang Cheng also came with Ye Tong, Xia Wenxi, and Li Lizhen. There are also celebrities such as Hong Jinbao, Zhong Zhentao, Wu Yiuhan, Zheng Yuling and other shortlisted stars. It is much more lively than the first one. After three years of running, everyone’s participation in this award has also deepened. We entered a banquet hall with a large round table and a stage in front of it, just like a banquet. Everyone took their seats according to the crew and company. Liang Jiahui and Liu Xiaoqing were included in the crew of "Behind the Curtain", following Li Hanxiang. Li Hanxiang saw Liu Xiaoqing looking around and asked, "What are you looking for?" "Let me see if Comrade Chen Qi and Gong Xue are here?" "They're not participating tonight." "Why don't you participate? Didn't "Life is Beautiful" win the top ten best films?" "That's not clear. Let's take ours." Li Hanxiang coughed. To be honest, his impression of Liu Xiaoqing was very subtle. This woman ignored the shooting plan. She was very angry when she went out to do acupuncture without permission, but she admitted that she was skilled in business, generous and loyal to others, and was a rare "big woman" in Hong Kong. The award ceremony has not started yet. Several people are chatting. Liang Jiahui asked, "Master, when will the film you talked about with Brother Qi be shot?" "Don't mention it! That guy is just making empty promises to me, and now I haven't even seen the script!" "What film is it?" Liu Xiaoqing interrupted. "It's about the love story between two women! Are you interested? If you want to act, I'll keep the role for you," Li Hanxiang said deliberately. "No, no!" Liu Xiaoqing rarely refuses. The love story between two women? Men are better! It's exciting! Li Hanxiang was actually very depressed. He originally planned to shoot five films, "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace", "The Behind-the-Curtain Ruling", "The Restoration of Tongzhi", "The Reform and the Eight-Nation Alliance", to fully present the history of the late Qing Dynasty. As a result, the co-production agreement changed, and the later films could not be shot. Chen Qi fooled people again, and Director Li is now in a window period.
After a while, the award ceremony began. There were only 12 awards at the third Academy Awards, and there were also the top ten Chinese films of the year, which were announced in advance. Life is Beautiful was among them. In general, it was still an atmosphere of gathering within the circle, and there was not a strong sense of ceremony. There were no supporting actors or actresses, only the best newcomer, which was given to Cheng Yuling. The best action director was given to "The Lucky Stars". When it came to the best screenwriter, the guests on the stage read out: "Dongfang Ren's "Seven Days of Love", Tan Guangyuan's "Fighting in the Ring", Shi Yangping's "Half Man", Li Hanxiang's "Behind the Curtain", Dongfang Ren's "Shanghai Nights"!" There was no big screen, so we could only rely on manpower. The guests also joked: "This Mr. Dongfang Ren is a mysterious dragon that can't be seen from head to tail. He has two nominations. I don't know if he will show up tonight?" Fu Qi and Zhuang Cheng were the only ones who knew the truth, and they smiled at the same time. Then I heard: "The winner of this year's Academy Award for Best Screenwriter is "Seven Days of Love", congratulations to Mr. Dongfang Ren!" "Wow!" Everyone was craning their necks to watch, and they were also very curious. Unfortunately, the real owner didn't come. Zhuang Cheng came on stage, took the trophy and said: "I will accept the award on your behalf. Thank you, everyone, thank you! This gentleman wanted to come, but he was delayed by something, so he asked me to say sorry. If there is another opportunity next year, he will definitely come to the scene in person." "Wow!" Fu Qi took the lead in clapping, almost laughing to death. Xiao Chen won the Golden Rooster and the Golden Image, and he is also a great screenwriter.
