"It's very simple. I have a talented person. I think you will like it!" Zeng Zhiwei's smiling look is so cute. It forms a huge contrast with the unusually mature look of someone who was born more than ten years ago. Sometimes this really makes Xiao Ran not very cute.
Easy to accept.
"Talent? Why don't you recommend it to Jiahe? Mr. Zou attaches great importance to talents!" Xiao Ran was confused. Hong Jinbao had promoted Zeng Zhiwei, and he once went to Xinyi City for Hong Jinbao. There is no reason why Talent should not recommend it to Jiahe.
Zeng Zhiwei scratched his head in embarrassment and then said: "That person admires you very much and said he only wants to be with you. Moreover, he is a newcomer and it is difficult to get ahead. You understand."
Xiao Ran was shocked. He didn't expect that he still had fans. He underestimated himself. After "Dark Flower" with its unique personality and strong style came out, he quietly gained a group of loyal fans, just like
It’s the same script as Xiao Ran’s obsession with You Hai.
Zeng Zhiwei's promotion of newcomers is not a matter of a day or two. Xiao Ran knew very well that Peng Haoxiang, the director of "The Killer" was promoted by Zeng Zhiwei. Also, Huang Jingfu, the director of "Jiang Hu", was just a short film maker.
Promoted by Zeng.
However, the current situation is not a so-called promotion. Zeng Zhiwei himself is not considered a senior, it can only be said to be a recommendation. Xiao Ran thought about it and realized that he has always been eager for talents: "No problem, you can let him go tomorrow
Go to Phantom Headquarters for an interview, and bring his works with you!"
This time, no one seemed to be disturbing anymore. Xiao Ran had a chat with the others and returned to his seat. However, Lin Qingxia had already arrived and was talking to Fa Ge and Hong Gu. When Xiao Ran arrived,
, the three of them couldn't help laughing, Zhong Chuhong even laughed and said: "Aran, if the company can win as many awards as last time this time, then coupled with the box office results, the company will really be considered overwhelming.
It’s Jiahe!”
It's easier said than done! Xiao Ran lamented that there are indeed some strong people in Hong Kong's production companies, and what makes Xiao Ran happy is that a few directors whose names he has never heard of before have emerged from other companies. This is a good sign. The more filmmakers there are, the more directors there will be.
Hong Kong films can become stronger.
However, Xiao Ran was still very confident about this year's competition, and said with a gentle smile: "Ah Hong, do you think the company has not defeated Jiahe? Winning awards is never the ultimate goal, only the market is everything. So, if
If the company wins this time, at worst, I will marry you. If we lose, I will marry you!"
These words made Wei Dongling, Liu Hua, Mei Yanfang, Zhang Guorong and others who were eavesdropping in the back row almost burst into laughter. Lin Qingxia just covered her mouth and snickered. Zhong Chuhong's face turned red and she suppressed her laughter.
Zang Nu: "You are really becoming more and more courageous. Let Qingxia take care of you when you get home later!"
Saying this, Zhong Chuhong's heart was filled with ups and downs. An outstanding person like Xiao Ran would probably be unforgettable for other people. Zhong Chuhong was even confused sometimes and didn't know what she was thinking. However, she
One thing is very clear, Xiao Ran belongs to Lin Qingxia, both in this life and in the future.
Xiao Ran also found it very interesting. Historically, the relationship between this group of stars was not that close, but everything changed because of his appearance. The filmmakers and stars standing in the Phantom camp were laughing and laughing, and everyone seemed
It was very close, with no barriers at all. Xiao Ran liked this kind of harmony.
The 8th Academy Awards has been very different from the past. In the past, the films that were originally nominated have been squeezed out. There are 14 awards in total, and "The Spy" received 12 nominations.
It's really a terrifying number. "Dark Flower" has also been nominated for eleven awards. Of course, this does not include the same film being nominated for more than one award in one award.
And "City Police" directed by John To and assistant director Chen Musheng also received two technical nominations, which surprised Xiao Ran. Because this "City Police" is definitely a film with a very creative concept nowadays.
It was ahead of its time, and already quite similar to the later Du style.
But historically, this film failed miserably not only in terms of reputation but also at the box office. Li Zixiong, the protagonist who became famous because of "A Better Tomorrow", no longer dared to be approached for a starring role, and ended up as a guest star in "Infernal Affairs 3". It can be said that
tragic.
But soon, Xiao Ran understood. Not for anything else, but because of the influence of "Dark Flower". The styles of "City Police" and "Dark Flower" are somewhat similar, both are gloomy and violent. Therefore, history has changed.
.Similar to this is Liang Jiahui's "Dragnet", which also has a pretty good reputation.
Wang Jiawei's "Carmen" also received a considerable number of nominations. In addition, there are two other emerging directors whose works have received considerable nominations this year. Anyone can see that this will become the Phantom Sweeps
An Academy Award for Qian Jun.
The host came out, this time it was not Zeng Zhiwei, but Chen Xinjian and Fei Fei. After the host said some words, it finally started. The first award was for the best new actor, and the nominees were David Wu's "Starlight Tonight"
"Brilliant", He Peidong's "Child Party", Su Renyao and Feng Fei'er's "Dark Flower", Zhou Huimin's "The World of Three".
The winner was Su Renyao, but in this way, Xiao Ran could be sure that Su Renyao, who was also shortlisted for Best Actor, would never win. Thinking that Fa Ge had one less opponent, Xiao Ran felt comforted.
Next up is Best Movie Song. Last year, The Sound of Heaven didn't have much power, so Phantom should have been the weakest in this category. However, it was unexpectedly strong. Among the six nominees, Phantom accounted for four.
One was "Diary of a Man" sung by Fa Ge, and three songs from "A Chinese Ghost Story". The final winner was "A Chinese Ghost Story" by Leslie Cheung.
Best Film Score has been officially renamed as Best Film Score. In this category, Phantom has won three nominations. "Dark Flowers" and "The Spy" each got one, and then "Carmen" and the other two
They are "Seven Little Blessings" and Li Xiaotian's "Rouge Button". The final winner was Lin Daoyun's "Dark Flower", which can be regarded as another consecutive winner.
In terms of best action direction, only "The Spy", an urban action film directed by Yuen Woo-Ping, and Liu Jiaban competed for the Phantom. The others were Hong Jiaban and Cheng Jiaban, each of whom received one nomination.
The award goes to Guan Xin of "The Spy".
Guan Xin obviously didn't know what to say on the stage. Finally, after thanking some people like everyone else, he thanked Xiao Ran again and then got off the stage. Xiao Ran naturally snickered at this, he was very fond of this item.
I am confident. Because one of the highlights of "The Spy" is that the action scenes are crisp and clean, without any sloppiness. If there are any awards for speeding stunts and the like, "The Spy" will still win.
For Best Supporting Actress, The Phantom had four nominations, and in the end it was Feng Fei'er in "Dark Flower" who won it. However, when the list of Best Art Director was announced, Xiao Ran was slightly surprised, because he actually heard it here.
Li Rengang's name. Li Rengang is the director of "Black Man", but he seems to have only proficient skills and lacks shining talent.
There were six nominations in this category, and Phantom still accounted for four. They were "Dark Flower" and "The Spy" as well as "Carmen" and "A Chinese Ghost Story". The final winner was Zhang Shuping's "Carmen". In the best
In the photography category, Phantom almost dominated the awards. Except for "Rouge Button", the winner was Huang Yongheng for "Dark Flower", which was another consecutive winner.
For Best Supporting Actor, three of the Phantoms were awarded, and the final winner was Jacky Cheung for "Carmen". Best Editing was well deserved and went to "The Spy". With such smooth action scenes, this film will definitely win the award.
.
So far, all the awards have fallen into the hands of Phantom. However, this is also true. Last year, neither Jiahe nor Debao had any films, not to mention Haile. As for Tianluo, of course, it is not important enough for the time being. In terms of discussion,
In terms of quality, "The Dark Flower" and "The Spy" are both ahead of their time, and winning awards is simply an easy thing.
"Finally, it's the best screenwriter. I'm really excited!" Fei Fei's slightly sharp voice sounded really excited, and his eyes were fixed on Xiao Ran: "This time, we Hong Kong people are proud of the first place.
It is unimaginable that the screenwriter has received three nominations. If he can win this award, it means that he has won three consecutive awards!"
The guests were Zhang Manyu and Wu Siyuan. When the two stood in front of the stage, Wu Siyuan smiled and said: "Actually, I have always admired a person, whether he is a screenwriter, a director, or a boss.
So outstanding. I can’t believe that one person can have so much energy, why not, let’s take a look at the nomination list first!”
A snippet of the nomination list appeared on the big screen, changing as a deep male voice read out: "The nominees for the 8th Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Screenplay are: Luo Qirui, Zhang Wanting, "Seven Little Fortunes"; Qiu Dai Anping, Li Bihua
, "Rouge Button"; Xiao Ran, "A Chinese Ghost Story"; Xiao Ran, "Dark Flower"; Xiao Ran, "The Spy"!"
"It's amazing, it's really amazing!" Zhang Manyu exclaimed. Even though people had known about the nomination list for a long time, they had the same feeling as Zhang Manyu. This is indeed so awesome that it's ridiculous. Not to mention that they have won it for two consecutive years.
Being shortlisted for three consecutive years is definitely a symbol of strength.
"I have watched all these films, and I think Xiao Ran's nomination is very logical!" Wu Siyuan is not trying to flatter Xiao Ran. It would be strange if Xiao Ran didn't get nominated.
"Director Wu, do you think Xiao Ran can achieve three consecutive championships? If he can really win it, it will be a miracle in the Hong Kong film industry!" Zhang Manyu is definitely not lying. Fa Ge has become a celebrity after winning the title once in a row.
A mythical figure. If Xiao Ran can really win this time, it will truly be an unprecedented miracle.
Wu Siyuan smiled. He looked at the audience and said: "I think the key this time is whether we can defeat Xiao Ran and win this award. Why don't we take a look together? Maybe we will witness three consecutive championships."
Birth..."
What is Xiao Ran doing now? He is as stable as a rock now, without any excitement at all. Although he is very eager to achieve three consecutive championships, he knows better that what he really wants to win the award is "The Spy", not other works. However, "
For a script like "The Dark Flower", it is probably destined to win an award, and he understands this.
"The best screenwriter of the 8th Hong Kong Film Awards is..." At this point, Wu Siyuan handed the answer in his hand to Zhang Manyu. A strange look appeared on Zhang Manyu's face. She glanced at the audience and shouted
Said: "The best screenwriter is... Xiao Ran... "The Spy"!"
Zhang Manyu's voice was like thunder, shattering Xiao Ran's calm heart. He stayed in his position at a loss, his thoughts in his mind were so chaotic that he couldn't sort out a clue. All he could think about was
The next voice: "Xiao Ran..."Spy"!"
He couldn't even believe that this was true, but when he heard the roar of the audience and saw people around him constantly congratulating him, he was stunned, how could "The Spy" win this award? Until Lin
Qingxia pushed Xiao Ran gently, and Xiao Ran woke up and hugged Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong and Fa Ge deeply before going on stage.
Taking the award handed over by Zhang Manyu, Xiao Ran still couldn't calm down his emotions of excitement, excitement and confusion. He knew that he could stand here, but he didn't expect that it was because of "The Spy", because he himself felt "
"Dark Flower" is much stronger.
Standing in front of the microphone, Xiao Ran pondered for a moment, trying to calm down the excitement in his heart. Looking at the excited and excited people in the audience, he told himself that now he won the award entirely based on his own strength: "I am very excited,
Because I made history!"
"But, I also feel very sad!" Everyone in the audience looked confused. They didn't know what Xiao Ran wanted to say. Xiao Ran looked around the audience and then fixed his gaze: "Why can I be able to do more than three years in a row?"
A nomination has been shortlisted, and it can achieve three consecutive championships. Let me tell you why, because there are no competitors."
"Don't you understand?" Xiao Ran smiled bitterly. He was indeed happy to win the award, but when he thought about it more deeply, he began to feel sad: "Three consecutive championships are my honor, but the Hong Kong screenwriter's
A shame, a shame for Hong Kong movies, I hope there won’t be another four consecutive championships! Anyway, thank you to the judges!”
