Chapter 748 Sword Rain
After the Best Actor, there are two more awards.
One is the Best Director, and the other is the Best Feature Film.
If nothing unexpected happens, both should go to Li An...
But the problem is that if nothing unexpected happens, how can Hao Yun, who is a man who doesn't act until he sees the rabbit, be the first to come out?
This first bird may seem to be not risky, but in fact, the connections required are very scary.
Even the Xi'an Film Studio can't find out, or doesn't want to go to the trouble to find out.
The awards were presented by Li Xing and... An Xiaoxi.
An Xiaoxi was not nominated for an award, but her performances in "Little Forest" and "Tracking" received many nominations, so it was natural for her to attend.
Such a popular figure can't be left idle.
It doesn't take much effort to present an award.
The nominees for Best Director are Li An, Hao Yun, Jiang Wen, and Li Yang.
This year's Hong Kong and Taiwan films are indeed very ordinary, which can be seen from the nominations. If "The Ring" hadn't shamelessly nominated 11 awards, the two sides combined would not account for half.
Three mainland directors competed against one Taiwanese director for the Best Director.
Bowing to the domestic entertainment industry would make one look very low.
Jiang Wen laughed at Li An. Is Li An a fool? He is not a fool at all. On the contrary, he is an extremely shrewd person.
But he has no choice.
The more it is at this time, the more he cannot give all the awards to "The Ring of Desire", otherwise the Golden Horse Awards will really belong to Li An alone.
In that case, the Golden Horse Awards will come to an end.
However, the funny thing is that he doesn't know who else can give these awards to if not "The Ring of Desire".
There is no one in Taiwan who can compete except "The Ring of Desire".
Du Qifeng's new film "Tracking" in Hong Kong is a bit too commercial. After inviting An Xiaoxi to participate in it, the box office in both the mainland and Hong Kong is very good, and the remake rights were bought by Bangbang.
Bangbang has been arguing for more than a month just to choose an actress who can surpass An Xiaoxi.
Bangbang has no shortage of top actresses, but it is very difficult to find a twenty-year-old like An Xiaoxi who has good acting skills and looks good even without makeup.
An Xiaoxi almost appears without makeup, so Bangbang can’t put on too much makeup.
Otherwise, people will say that Bangbang won by makeup... that’s not decent enough.
In addition to "Tracking", there is "The Disciple", but the Golden Horse Awards have always been distinguished from the Golden Image Awards, and the main venue of "The Disciple" is definitely the Golden Image Awards [Note 1].
Therefore, this year's Golden Horse Awards saw the phenomenon of countless nominations for mainland works.
Now even the Best Director award, which is almost never allowed to be touched by the mainland, has been nominated for three-quarters of the nominations.
Taiwanese filmmakers are constantly sad.
Fortunately...
There is no problem for Li An to win the Best Director. If we are a little more shameless, it would be even more perfect if Li An also won the Best Feature Film.
The mainland won a Best Actress and half of the Best Actor.
The Best Adapted Screenplay went to a mainland film, but the Best Original Screenplay did not go to a mainland film. At least, local Taiwanese films did not lose at the Golden Horse Awards.
"Miss An, please make the announcement." Li Xing was born in 1930 and is already 77 years old. After taking a look at the result, he smiled and stepped aside.
He has won the Best Film Award at the Golden Horse Awards nine times and the Best Director Award three times. He is a master in Taiwan.
Another legendary thing is that his father lived to be 95 years old, and his mother also lived to be 95 years old.
Many people think that it is okay for him to live to 95 years old.
Although he is in his seventies or eighties now, he is still in good health. He was also invited to help clean up the mess made at the Golden Horse Awards last year.
However, he did not know what deal Li An and Hao Yun had made.
So it was amazing to see Hao Yun win the Best Director award over Li An.
"The 44th Golden Horse Film Awards, Best Director Award, the winner is Hao Yun, congratulations!"
An Xiaoxi was very happy that Hao Yun won the award, her baby voice was a little flying.
When the audience applauded, there was a good-natured laugh.
As for whether Hao Yun is qualified to surpass Li An to win the Best Director, this matter is actually inconclusive.
"The Ring" won the Venice Golden Lion, and "Bullfighting" also won the Jury Award in Cannes.
Of the three major film festivals, Venice ranked last.
Li An's directing has reached the pinnacle, but Hao Yun is also remarkable.
What's more, Hao Yun is only twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
Age is not a reason for winning, but the Golden Horse Awards always mentions supporting newcomers every year, which is not just empty talk.
One is humorous anti-Japanese, and the other is to promote traitors. Why is "Bullfighting" worse than "The Ring".
If you say Tang Wei took off her clothes, then the cow didn't wear any clothes either.
At least the cow saved the wounded, which was much better than Tang Wei.
So most of the applause was sincere, especially those from the mainland. Even Wang Quanan and Li Yang, who were eliminated, were happy.
They didn't think they were worse than Hao Yun, but they never thought they could win the award over Li An.
It didn't matter whether they won the award or not. Li An didn't get it, which was very satisfying!
Hao Yun stood up and bowed to the surroundings. There was an empty seat next to him. The person who was originally sitting there went upstairs to present the award.
At this time, he was waiting for him with the trophy.
An Xiaoxi was like the father of the trophy, holding his daughter and waiting for the groom.
Hao Yun quickly walked onto the stage, shook hands with Director Li Xing, then took the trophy from An Xiaoxi's hand, hugged her and kissed her on the face.
There was no way, he was too excited.
Everyone in the audience couldn't hold back when they saw this scene.
Hey, disgusting!
But Hao Yun didn't think that the deal between him and Li An was to give him one of the two awards.
He didn't expect Li An to be so single and give him the Best Director award.
This thing is usually his private property.
He can lose the Best Actor and Best Actress award, after all, others won the award, but the Best Director award belongs to Li An.
"Thank you, thank you Director Li Xing, thank you my old classmate An Xiaoxi, and thank you my old classmate Huang Bo..."
The audience responded with contemptuous eyes.
They are all old classmates, I don't believe that Huang Bo and An Xiaoxi are the same.
If you have the ability, you can take a bite of Huang Bo, don't just make the girl drool.
"When filming "Bullfighting", I was full of energy, and I thought about how to shoot anti-Japanese film and television dramas, not only to achieve the purpose of remembering history, but also to warn people today, and to make more people willing to go to the cinema..."
Hao Yun first talked about the filming of the movie, and talked about the anti-Japanese war on the Golden Horse Awards stage without hesitation.
But he didn't talk for too long.
If you talk too much, it will seem excessive. He knows that too much is as bad as too little.
When you reach Hao Yun's position, you must grasp a degree in everything. Only by controlling the degree can you continue to move up better.
The higher you go, the louder the voice you make, and the more people will hear it.
After a speech of acceptance, Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi returned to their positions.
The best feature film after that is naturally Li An's "The Ring", and he must win one of these awards.
The best feature film is nominally the first prize.
Li An gave up the best director in order to save the last face of the Golden Horse Awards.
In a sense, he did a good job.
"The Ring" was nominated for 11 awards and won 6 awards including Best Feature Film, Best Actor, Best New Actor, Best Costume Design, Best Sound Effects, and Best Visual Effects. In addition, Li An also won the Outstanding Film Worker of the Year, which is 7 awards.
In addition, Jay Chou also won the Best Original Film Song and Outstanding Film of the Year awards. Taiwan Film at least held its ground.
Hao Yun had three sets of trophies and certificates.
Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Original Film Music.
And Best Art Design, but it had nothing to do with Hao Yun.
Plus Huang Bo's Best Actor...
"Bullfight" and "Little Forest" won five awards, including Best Director and Best Actor.
The mainland also reaped a lot of rewards, and it felt like there hadn't been such a big harvest for a long time.
After the award ceremony, there was a celebration banquet and media interviews.
Hao Yun won the Best Director and Huang Bo won the Best Actor, both of which were the targets of media pursuit.
"I didn't expect to win the Best Director," Hao Yun said hypocritically, "I think the Golden Horse Awards are getting more and more fair. I hope the Golden Horse Awards will get better and better and become the highest celebration of Chinese-language films..."
Because you won the Best Director, you think the Golden Horse Awards are getting more and more fair.
Why do I feel something is wrong?
Hao Yun looked innocent. I won the Golden Horse Award. Shouldn't I say that the Golden Horse Award is good?
Huang Bo had already returned to normal when he was interviewed.
However, when he responded to the media, he did not give up talking about his friendship with Hao Yun and Wang Shunliu.
That year, I was eighteen/alma mater dance/standing like a minion/I swore with tears at that time/you must see me...
After the interview and the celebration banquet, Hao Yun returned to the hotel and opened the treasure chest.
Three certificates were opened at the same time.
Oh, so happy~
[Congratulations to the host, won the "44th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Award·Best Original Film Music" certificate, which can store 500 attribute points]

[Open the treasure chest]
[Congratulations to the host for opening the certificate treasure chest (medium quality), and got lyrics +6 (permanent), music "future funk". ]
A piece of pure music, but I don't know if it is suitable for "Let the Bullets Fly".
Hao Yun has been thinking about this.
But he always felt that the soundtrack he made for "The Sun Also Rises" before seemed more suitable for "Let the Bullets Fly", the kind that fits perfectly.

Hao Yun flipped through the diary brought in the suitcase.
I found that this story is a bit...
Well, how to say it.
It's just a person, he doesn't have Jiji, and for Jiji he set off a bloody storm in the world.
[Note 1] "The Ring" received 11 nominations at the Golden Horse Awards, and "The Disciple" received 15 nominations at the Academy Awards, each one more outrageous than the other.
[Note 2] I don't know when this script was completed, I want to write it, so I don't care about the others.
