Chapter 395 If You Can Do It, Go for It (Asking for Monthly Votes)

Since it was the first annual award of the Film Directors Association, in order to expand its influence, the award ceremony was directly merged with the "8th Cross-Strait and Hong Kong Film Symposium".

In other words, the people attending the award ceremony became directors from the mainland, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.

The total number of participating directors exceeded 200.

Among them, there were more than 50 directors from Hong Kong alone, and more than 20 directors from Taiwan.

It is rare for an award ceremony to gather so many top directors at once.

The top directors have basically joined the association - in an artistic environment like China, it is like a mess without an organization.

On the contrary, the number of celebrities who came seemed a little small.

There were only more than 100.

There were only Li Xuejian, Liu Furong, Ge You, Li Ming, Jiang Shan, Wang Zhiwen, Mei Ting, Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, Li Xuexue, Zhang Guoli, Xu Fan, He Bing and others.

The most helpless one was probably the Changchun Film Festival.

The Directors Association Award was held for the first time, and the announcement was relatively late, so they had no time to change the time.

Many directors or celebrities were unwilling to catch up with such a continuous schedule.

This year is probably the most deserted one for them.

However, the Changchun Film Festival is indeed a bit down. How glorious it was before, it seems so shabby now.

Hao Yun returned to the capital, took a shower and changed clothes, and Jiang Wen came to pick him up to attend the seminar.

Only Hao Yun could let the jury come to pick him up personally.

"I'm actually very happy that you can choose the Directors Guild Award." Jiang Wen patted Hao Yun on the shoulder.

He knew Hao Yun had other schedules.

When Hao Yun asked him how to choose, he did not interfere with Hao Yun's choice, saying that he could choose anything and it didn't matter.

But for himself, he still hoped that Hao Yun could choose the Directors Guild Award.

Not because he is the chairman of the jury of the Directors Guild Award, but because this choice represents Hao Yun's attitude towards things.

Disrespecting the king and the nobles, and being disrespectful to the ministers, the emperor is in front, and treating them equally, repaying a meal of kindness, and avenging a grudge, this is the spirit of the rivers and lakes.

Most young people have this spirit of the rivers and lakes.

Only when you are older, have experienced more things, and have been smoothed by society and reality, can you think twice before acting, act more prudently, and understand the internal logic of the film industry.

Jiang Wen was worried at first that Hao Yun would not look down on such a formal occasion.

As a result, Hao Yun turned down all other schedules and rushed back to the capital to participate in the first Directors Guild Awards.

"To be honest, I came here just to win the award, and I also have a membership card for the Directors Guild. I'm afraid they won't give it to me if I don't come." Hao Yun smiled, which was, to some extent, a truthful statement.

"The award is definitely yours." Jiang Wen said confidently: "You should have been nominated for Best Director, but I rejected it. It's not time yet. It's enough to get the Young Director Award now."

"Isn't there Xu Jinglei?

Hao Yun knew that because of the relationship between Xu Jinglei and Wang Shuo, even Jiang Wen had to give face to Xu Jinglei.

Jiang Wen also starred in a movie directed by Xu Jinglei.

The movie "My Father and I" for which Xu Jinglei was nominated was starred by Ye Da Ying, Jiang Wen, and Zhang Yuan, all of whom are super directors.

Not to mention Ye Da Ying, Zhang Yuan won the Best Director Award at the 56th Venice International Film Festival for "Going Home for the New Year".

In 1992, Zhang Yuan's second independent film "Capital Bastards" reflected the mental state of contemporary Chinese youth and was considered China's first rock film. It was also banned, and he was also banned from working in the film industry.

Just like Jiang Wen, he was banned for five years.

The difference is that Jiang Wen can still act, while he can neither act nor direct.

"Xu Jinglei," Jiang Wen shook his head and said, "She can't get on the stage. ”

He only said this so directly in front of Hao Yun.

In fact, Xu Jinglei is one of the four major actresses.

She is also a director.

She is very prestigious in the entire capital circle, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the princess of the capital circle.

However, Jiang Wen devalued Xu Jinglei with just one sentence.

But it seems normal when you think about it.

For ordinary people, Xu Jinglei may be the top star, and a star who has taken the director route.

But in front of the real boss, she is just a woman of Wang Shuo.

It’s just that Wang Shuo is a bit love-minded and likes to use favors to seek benefits for women, even if this woman rolls in the sheets with other men all day long.

The opposite of Xu Jinglei should be said to be Li Shaohong.

Li Shaohong still has some face.

But that’s all , the Directors Association is a man's world, women can only be foils, that is, everyone pampers you, then you have face, when everyone does not want to pamper you, you are nothing.

Chen Kaige did not take this bamboo mat, and it was not Li Shaohong's turn.

Li Shaohong was not even one of the judges.

The members of this session's jury also include Jiang Ping, He Ping, Huang Jianxin, Zhang Jianya, Chen Guoxing, Gu Changwei, Chen Kaige, Zhang Yang, Teng Wenji and Lu Xuechang.

One bamboo mat, ten judges, all men.

If you count them, Hao Yun knows most of the eleven people, and many of them have dealt with Hao Yun.

Huang Jianxin invited Hao Yun to join the Directors Association. Hao Yun has participated in Gu Changwei's "Peacock", Teng Wenji's "Blood Romance", Lu Xuechang's "Kara is a Dog", and auditioned Zhang Yang's "Blind Well".

"This award was originally for Lu Yu. They have already established connections. Lu Yu was nominated for Best Director and Best Young Director, and then won the Young Director Award."

"He is really omnipresent." Hao Yun felt a headache.

This guy is indeed his rival.

"Lu Yu's path is the kingly path. He made movies and won awards, joined the Directors Association, became the leader of the seventh generation of directors, and learned from Zhang Yimou to shoot the official Olympics. Unfortunately, all the arrangements were ruined by you."

Jiang Wen laughed, and he also contributed to this.

It seems that Hao Yun's paper buried Lu Yu's efforts for several years, but in fact there are whirlpools under the undercurrent.

It was just suppressed before it was rolled out.

"If I don't trip him up, wouldn't he be the next Zhang Yimou?" Hao Yun was shocked.

He really didn't think that Lu Yu's life plan was so wild.

And he didn't have any plans in this regard. Even if he did, it would be useless because he couldn't compete with Lu Yu at all.

For example, the best young director of the first annual award of the Film Association has already been decided.

"Zhang Yimou is much more talented than him." Jiang Wen participated in Zhang Yimou's movie and pointed fingers at Zhang Yimou on the set. Zhang Yimou was so angry that he said if you can do it, you can do it. Then Jiang Wen made "Sunny Days".

"That's true." Hao Yun is still very convinced of Zhang Yimou.

He doesn't think he can surpass Zhang Yimou in the future. The times are different. The opportunities now are not as good as when the thaw was just started.

Moreover, the directors of the third generation are still active, the fourth and fifth generations, and now it has reached the sixth generation. How can there be so many opportunities for the new directors behind?

When the fifth generation dies out, there will be no artistic soil for the seventh and eighth generations.

This is the case in many industries. Opportunities are more important than talent.

"New directors are getting worse and worse. He may inherit Zhang Yimou's position," Jiang Wen looked at Hao Yun with a smile and said, "You have come to this point. If you can't suppress him for 50 years, you might as well quit the circle early."

"I will try my best~" Hao Yun sighed and said, "The main thing is that the water is too deep. I am afraid I can't control it."

Jiang Wen didn't say anything.

The two got off the car at the starting point of the red carpet and walked on the red carpet together.

This time, Jiang Wen, a member of the jury, walked the red carpet with the award nominees without any concealment.
