Chapter 355: Golden Horse Race in Progress (Part 1)

Now, Liu Dehua has a very good reputation and evaluation in the circle.

Although, he actually played many bad movies in Hong Kong Island. After all, there was no Hong Kong actor who debuted in the 1980s and 1990s who was not asked to take a role with a gun pointed at his head.

However, after entering the 21st century, Liu Dehua brought many well-received and popular movies to the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong.

From "Infernal Affairs" to "A World Without Thieves" to "Child's Dream" and "Seeing the Dragon Resurrection", although there were two movies "Warrior War" and "The Warlords" that received mixed reviews in the middle.

But overall, he is still the most stable among the Hong Kong Island superstars.

Although the upper limit may not be high, the lower limit is very stable. As long as he is found to star, it will basically not lose money, and the film has a good reputation.

However, 2010 was the turning point in Liu Dehua's acting career.

Although he also had the well-received and popular "Detective Dee: The Mystery of the Phantom Flame" released this year, this year was also the first year of his bad movies in the mainland.

From the extremely bad "Future Police" to the even worse "The Secret of Fuchun Mountain Dwelling", Liu Dehua's reputation plummeted.

Although there are excellent art films such as "A Simple Life" and "Lost and Love" to support him, the movies he took on in the next few years were worse and worse.

Wu Yuan didn't know why Liu Dehua's style of accepting roles suddenly became so "casual". He accepted all kinds of bad movies that asked him to be the producer and the star.

What's more amazing is that he always has a good one and a bad one.

Just like Huang Xiaoming would reward himself with a domineering CEO movie after a good movie.

Deng Chao would reward himself with a comedy movie after a good movie.

Liu Dehua would reward himself with a bad money-making movie after a good movie.

He took "Future Police" right after finishing "Detective Dee: The Mystery of the Phantom Flame".

He acted in "A Simple Life" here and took "The Secret of Fuchun Mountain Dwelling" there.

After finally starring in two good movies, Lost and Love and Saving Mr. Wu, he immediately took on two bad movies, The Man from Macau 3 and The King of Comedy. Just by looking at the leading roles, you can tell that they are bad movies made just to make money.

Some people say that Liu Dehua knew these movies were bad movies after reading the scripts, but he still insisted on taking them, all to repay favors.

But this statement is a bit too untenable.

How can there be so many favors to repay? Even if there are, it can't be so coincidental, right?

Wu Yuan couldn't figure out why Liu Dehua did this, and it was impossible for him to ask him.

However, Wu Yuan wanted to cooperate with Liu Dehua before his reputation fell.

"Brother Hua, have you agreed on your schedule for next year?" Wu Yuan asked thoughtfully.

"Almost all of them are full." Liu Dehua shook his head: "At the beginning of the year, I will make a guest appearance in the national tribute film of China Film. In May, I will join the crew of "Detective Dee" directed by Xu Ke, and in November, I will join the crew of another science fiction film."

"Speaking of this science fiction film, it was Director Wu's "Gravity" that greatly stimulated the film companies in the industry. It turns out that we can also make our own Chinese-language science fiction films."

"This science fiction film that I was invited to star in is a joint production of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong and Taiwan. China Film took the lead, and film companies in Hong Kong and Taiwan joined."

"Director Wu, you may not know that I really like science fiction films and have always wanted to try to make science fiction films. It's just that no one in China has made films of this theme before. Now I finally have the opportunity to act in science fiction films. I am really happy."

Wu Yuan looked at Liu Dehua's excited and joyful expression, and felt that he didn't seem to be lying.

It seems that he took the initiative to join "The Wandering Earth 2" because he loved science fiction themes.

However, "The Wandering Earth 2" is a good film, but "Future Police" is not necessarily.

The director and screenwriter of this thing is Wang Jing

The director who is best at making bad movies in Hong Kong.

"Brother Hua, have you read the script? Why did you take this movie?" Wu Yuan asked uncertainly.

"The script is not yet written, but after China Film Group found me and told me about this project, I decided to join." Liu Dehua said without worry: "Director Wu has made a good start. We always need someone to follow up and expand the Chinese science fiction film market."

"Whether it succeeds or fails, we must try hard."

Well, Wu Yuan knew why Liu Dehua took so many bad movies later.

This guy is so easy to talk to. He didn't even see the script, but he was fooled by Wang Jing's words to act.

With that shoddy and insincere "Future Police", how dare you say that you can expand the Chinese science fiction film market?

It's just that the Internet is not developed enough in this era, otherwise this movie should get the treatment of "Fortress of Magic City".

Wu Yuan sighed regretfully, "Sure enough, if you want to find superstars like you, you have to schedule one or two years in advance."

"Oh?" Liu Dehua was quite interested: "Director Wu, do you want me to shoot a new movie?"

"When will it start shooting? Maybe I can coordinate the schedule."

No matter whether Wu Yuan's movie has a schedule or not, he must ask clearly.

Although Liu Dehua knew that a director like Wu Yuan would definitely not accept actors overlapping roles, maybe he could arrange it and squeeze out two or three months to shoot Wu Yuan's movie?

"It's not my movie." Wu Yuan shook his head and explained: "It's a movie that the company will start shooting early next year. It's directed by Zhang Guorong and is in a magical style."

Yes, Wu Yuan thinks Liu Dehua is quite suitable to play the role of the messenger of the underworld.

Although he is not young anymore, he is well maintained and naturally has the feeling of looking young but having an old temperament, which fits the character background of the underworld messenger who looks thirty years old but has actually lived for thousands of years.

Unfortunately, actors of Liu Dehua's status have very tight schedules. If they don't make an appointment a year in advance, they can't get a schedule at all.

When Liu Dehua heard that it was not a play directed by Wu Yuan himself, he was not so eager to try it.

Although Zhang Guorong has done a good job in transforming into a director in recent years, Liu Dehua has no shortage of film contracts, so he doesn't need to adjust the schedule for his play.

"That's really a pity. I hope there will be a chance next time." Liu Dehua shrugged.

"Well, let's go, it's time to take a seat. The award ceremony will start soon."

In a blink of an eye, the crew in the backstage were almost all seated, and there was no more walking around to communicate. The staff also indicated that the live broadcast would start.

Wu Yuan and Liu Dehua also quickly found the area of ​​their respective crews and went back to sit down.

Soon, the live broadcast of the 45th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards ceremony officially began.

This year's awards ceremony hosts are Cheng Yuling and Black Chen Jianzhou.

After the two hosts took the microphone to the stage, they began to introduce the guests on the scene to the audience in front of the TV.

This year's Golden Horse Awards were also broadcast in the mainland, but only on Guangdong Province's Star TV, and it seems that only the Guangdong region can receive the signal.

However, this does not affect the enthusiasm of mainland audiences to pay attention to the Golden Horse Awards.

Sohu, Penguin and other portal websites have directly opened a Golden Horse Awards discussion area, with real-time on-site photos, and the award-winning news will be released as soon as possible to ensure that mainland audiences can know the award-winning situation as soon as possible.

"The host is introducing the crews."

"There are the crews of "The Warlords", "Cape No. 7", "Assembly", "Half Sea, Half Flame", and Hu Jun, a mainland actor representing the crew of "Red Cliff"..."

The typist who was broadcasting in real time quickly reported the situation on the scene in words in the special area.

Of course, the crew of "A Man Called Li Wen Decides to Die" is also the top priority.

Although she was filming in Switzerland, Liu Yifei was also following this year's Golden Horse Awards on the Internet.

She also starred in "A Man Called Li Wen Decides to Die". As a member of the crew, her heart must follow the big family!

After the opening performance, the first award was presented for Best Supporting Actress.

Because she was not nominated, Liu Yifei didn't care about this award.

After a while, the news came.

"Mei Fang won the Best Supporting Actress Award at the 45th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards for the movie "Lost Boy"!"

"Mei Fang?" Liu Yifei muttered, and after thinking about it, she still had no impression of this actress. She should be a Taiwanese actress who has never developed in the mainland.

Teacher Song Dandan actually lost to this actress, which made Liu Yifei a little unhappy. She wanted to know more about this Taiwanese actress whose name was only one letter different from the Hong Kong actress.

However, before she opened the search software to check the actor's resume, another award was awarded.

"Ma Rulong won the Best Supporting Actor Award at the 45th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards for the movie "Cape No. 7"!"

Seeing that the Best Supporting Actor was awarded to "Cape No. 7", Liu Yifei's mouth bulged, a little regretful.

Hu Jun was also nominated for the Best Supporting Actor for "Red Cliff". Although this movie is a rival to "Gravity", Liu Yifei has worked with Hu Jun after all. When she was in the crew of "Dragon Babu", Hu Jun, the big brother, took good care of her.

Even though no one from "Li Wen" was nominated for this award, Liu Yifei still hoped that Hu Jun could win the award, but unfortunately she didn't.

"There was a song and dance performance at the scene, and the famous Hong Kong singer Chen Yixun came on stage to sing his new song "Don't Talk", which attracted enthusiastic cheers from Zhou Xun in the audience."

Seeing this latest news, Liu Yifei was stunned, "Sister Xun is also participating in the Golden Horse Awards this year?"

She thought about it carefully, and it seemed that Zhou Xun didn't have any movies nominated this year?

However, Zhou Xun had a movie "Li Mi's Guess" released this year, which had good box office and reputation, so it was normal for her to be invited by the Golden Horse Awards.

It's just that in Liu Yifei's simple philosophy, it seems unnecessary to join the excitement of the award ceremony without the movie she starred in being nominated for the award.

Anyway, she has never had any works nominated, so she will not attend any award ceremony or film festival activities.

Just when Liu Yifei was daydreaming, at the Golden Horse Awards, after a song and dance performance, the award ceremony continued.

The live camera on the scene swept across the area where the crew of "Li Wen" sat, and froze on Wu Yuan's face for a few seconds.

Wu Yuan also cooperated and waved to the camera with a smile. Song Dandan missed the Best Supporting Actress Award, but he did not feel any loss.

Mei Fang's qualifications are not less than Song Dandan. She also has more scenes in the movie. More importantly, she performed better than Song Dandan and deserved this award.

Some lucky audience members who came to the scene sitting in the last row saw Wu Yuan smiling and waving on the big screen, and immediately burst into enthusiastic cheers.

His title of "Hollywood Great Director" is very useful in Taiwan.

"The next award to be presented is the Best Original Screenplay Award!" The host was still announcing passionately.

The reason why the camera on the scene stayed on Wu Yuan was because the next award to be presented was related to him.

"A Man Called Li Wen Decides to Die" was also nominated for the Best Original Screenplay Award, and the screenwriter of this movie is Wu Yuan.
