The welcome dinner was really "routine".

As the guests entered the venue, Wen Jun made a speech as the host to welcome everyone, and then the buffet-style banquet began.

Cheng Yuan and Qin Hailu were eating together at this time.

"I told you to eat slowly. This is a banquet and everyone is civilized. How can you eat like this?" Qin Hailu poured a glass of water for Cheng Yu'an and gently stroked Cheng Yu'an's back.

Cheng Yu'an said while swallowing the food: "In the afternoon, I first chatted with the reporter from the movie channel for a long time, and then talked to Wang Zhonglei from Huayi for a long time. My mouth was so dry that I didn't even bother to take a sip of water.

Rush here."

"Poor kid." Qin Hailu smiled.

"Yankee." I don't know who said this. The voice was very soft, but it just reached the ears of Cheng Yu'an and Qin Hailu.

The word "Yankee" is discriminatory in Cantonese.

It's equivalent to calling you a foreigner and a country bumpkin.

Qin Hailu looked up and saw Huang Baiming.

Just as he was about to step forward to argue, Cheng Yu'an pulled his sleeve as soon as he stood up: "Ignore him."

Qin Hailu glanced at him and sat down again.

Huang Ke was not forgiving. He came over and complimented Cheng Yu'an with a smile on his face: "Come on, come on, let me give you a toast to Director Cheng. Director Cheng won the runner-up in the mainland box office. I haven't congratulated you yet."

He emphasized the word "runner-up" very strongly, as if he was saying that you are the second best.

Cheng Yu'an stood up, raised the wine glass in his hand, and laughed as well: "I, the runner-up, only have 170 million, and Hong Kong Island only sold 0 million, so I can't compare to Boss Huang's movie."

Cheng Yu'an thought to himself at this time: "It's good that I don't have to settle accounts with you. You can come to the door yourself."

Cheng Yuan's words directly stabbed Huang Baiming in the heart.

He retired from the scene very early, and since the beginning of the new century, he has indeed had few outstanding works.

The "Seven Swords" produced by the film is considered a movie, but its box office is 80 million in the mainland and only 10 million in Hong Kong. Why should it be jumped in front of Cheng Yu'an?

Cheng Yu'an didn't know what was wrong with this old man to target him like this.

In fact, it is easy to understand. In Huang Baiming's view, Cheng Yu'an, the dragon crossing the river, is here to kill Hong Kong movies.

He welcomes Yu Dong, a big water pipe, to support the distribution of Hong Kong films in the mainland, which is equivalent to finding a market for Hong Kong films.

But he hated Cheng Yuan's approach.

He launched the "Asian Rising Star Director" program, as well as the star director program jointly launched with the movie channel a while ago, which was said to support new directors. But in his view, Cheng Yu'an was poaching Hong Kong Island.

He has collaborated with Hong Kong directors on several consecutive films, from Kwan Keng-peng to Chen Musheng to Chen Jia-shang and Lam Chao-hsien.

He waved his money and lured all Hong Kong directors to the mainland to film.

This is digging the grave of Hong Kong Island movies.

"Young man," Huang Baiming still smiled, "Film is a profound knowledge. Don't think that you understand movies just because you have made some money."

Cheng Yu'an also said: "Of course I still have a lot to learn, but I just don't know that learning movie bagging does not include installing bugs in other people's rooms."

Cheng Yu'an said this very quietly, only he and Huang Baiming could hear it.

Huang Baiming's face suddenly changed. Cheng Yu'an took a step closer, pulled the collar of the other person's suit, pretended to arrange his clothes, and said close to his ear: "I took into account the feelings of Hong Kong Island and the Mainland so that I didn't make the matter a big deal. Everyone, please

We make our own films and earn our own money. If Boss Huang wants to make things bigger, I will lose the 30 to 50 million Hong Kong market. But Boss Huang, you have to think clearly.

Your movies in the Mainland cannot withstand the impact of long-distance. I have a hundred scripts in my hand, and each of them is as good as "Clues of Time and Space". I will block every one you release, do you dare to play?"

Huang Baiming has been in the Jianghu for a long time, how could he be frightened by Cheng Yu'an's two words, so he said: "Do you think it's my first day out in the Jianghu? You have no evidence to prove that I did it, so I can say whatever I want when the time comes.

"

Cheng Yu'an smiled: "But I heard that the editor-in-chief of that newspaper often plays golf with you, Boss Huang, and I also heard that the golf club charges very high fees. It costs 50,000 yuan for a night, and they have everything."

"Boss Huang, can you tell me why golf is so expensive? You can play a dozen a night?"

Huang Baiming smiled: "Do you think anyone will believe this kind of thing that is made out of nothing?"

"Oh -" Cheng Yu'an continued, "Then do you think the police will believe that there is no transaction between DP and JH at that golf club?"

After hearing this, Huang Baiming finally lost his expression and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, I have never touched that kind of thing."

"Of course I believe Boss Huang is a law-abiding citizen, but I don't know if the police will believe him."

Huang Baiming began to sweat on his face. Cheng Yuan knew that he could not continue. The two of them were too close and talked for too long. In the end, Cheng Yuan gave Huang Baiming a step and said in a normal voice: "Boss Huang has

You must come to me when you get to the capital and I'll treat you to a drink."

Huang Baiming also walked down the slope and said with a smile: "Don't wait until the capital. Let's have a drink alone after the awards show is over!"

The two shook hands, patted their shoulders, and left talking and laughing.

From the outside, this scene can be called "respecting the old and loving the young".

As a senior, Huang Baiming and a junior director, Cheng Yuan, chatted and laughed, discussing the future development of Hong Kong films.

The dinner that night ended in a very pleasant atmosphere.

The next day on the 8th at 6pm.

The 5th Hong Kong Film Awards officially opens!

This year's Avenue of Stars, the red carpet, was specially changed to purple by Wenjun.

Take the meaning of red and purple!

All media outlets have been waiting attentively on the Avenue of Stars, and CCTV has even arranged four camera seats on the Avenue of Stars.

In fact, as early as 5:30, sporadic celebrities began to enter the Avenue of Stars.

This person is Mr. Liu, a citizen who buys vegetables.

Mr. Liu did not have a role this year and was shortlisted. He came here to "borrow the venue": "I just came to film. There is this purple Shin Kong Avenue in the new movie "Overnight Famous". The crew just came to borrow the venue. This is also to save money.

.”

A reporter asked him what it was like to walk on the Avenue of Stars. He laughed and said, "The wind is so strong."

He also said that he hopes to have the opportunity to compete for the Academy Awards next year and truly walk on the Avenue of Stars.

Then Academy Awards chairman Wen Jun appeared on the Avenue of Stars and explained to reporters why the Avenue of Stars should be decorated in purple.

The first stars to officially appear on the Avenue of Stars were directors Li Bingbing and Hou Hsiao-hsien.

The two walked together. Director Hou Hsiao-hsien might not be very familiar with Li Bingbing. The two seldom communicated together, and their photos together showed standard smiles.

Celebrities appear one after another. Let’s pick a few interesting ones to talk about.

Chen Kexin brought Mr. Zhou and his wife Wu Junru into the venue. Wu Junru was pregnant and took pictures on the purple carpet with her big belly.

Zhang Ziyi probably offended the stylist. She wore a purple short skirt with a colorful shawl, looking like a peacock with its feathers exploded.

Fan Xiaopang is really stunning. She is wearing a green deep V dress and her hair is tied up high, showing her charming posture.

She originally wanted to walk the red carpet with Cheng Yu'an, but Cheng Yu'an pushed Gu Zai to her.
Chapter completed!
