Chapter 83 Ceremony Eleven
Although Chen Chong refuted Wang Yang, he actually felt quite regretful that Chen Peisi did not win the award.
On the list of the best supporting actors, Tian Feng and Sun Yue are both veteran actors. Whether to win the award or not is not much helpful to their careers.
Sun Yue is already UU years old. He is similar to Ge Cunzhuang. Both are known for playing villains. He won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actor in 2019. The role he is most familiar to later movie fans is the uncle dumb who played in "The Wrong Car" in 1983. He also won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor for this movie.
Tian Feng is even older. He participated in the first movie after World War II in Taiwan. Later, he moved to Hong Kong and joined Shaw Brothers. He had a very good relationship with major directors such as Zhang Cheung, Hu Jinquan, and Li Hanxiang. He played a lot of supporting roles. He was active until the beginning of the 21st century. Like Song Zihao's father in "The True Color of Heroes" and the Spider Spirit in "The Green Snake", they are all familiar characters to movie fans.
Although Zhang Guoqiang was young, he focused on TV series in the future and did not achieve much in movies. The most familiar character to mainland audiences was playing Murong Fu in Huang Rihua's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in 1997.
If Chen Peisi can win the award, he will definitely leave a good impression on his superiors. He may have the opportunity to make more movies in the future, rather than relying on sketches to show off his comedy talent.
When Xu Shaoqiang won this award, Chen Chong was actually quite surprised. It was not because of his acting skills, but because he had constant trouble last year. The jury from Hong Kong and Taiwan should have a bad impression of him.
Xu Shao is very tall and powerful, quick-witted, excellent acting skills, and good-looking and evil. He is a very rare film talent. Chen Chong always felt a pity in his previous life. Such a good material has been acting for decades, and he has never been a black man. He has always been supporting roles for many years, and has no heavyweight work. Those directors in Hong Kong are really blind.
After traveling through time, I realized that it was not that others were blind, but that this guy was abandoning himself.
Xu Shaoqiang was originally an accountant in the stock exchange. When Shaw Brothers held its first acting training in 1971, he signed up. However, when he got off work and ran to Shaw Brothers Cinema in Qingshui Bay, the class time had already passed halfway, so he had to withdraw. He made a comeback two years later and signed up again. He failed to graduate, but successfully signed up and became a basic actor of Shaw Brothers.
He has a very talented person and has never learned martial arts. After learning Liu Jialiang and Tang Jia for a short period of time, his swords, guns, swords and halberds were all the same, and he was soon appreciated by Chu Yuan. He has been asking him to film since "Meteor Butterfly Sword", and has filmed more than ten movies adapted from Gu Long's martial arts novels in succession. It was the earliest one among his students. When Chu Yuan filmed "Xiao Shiyilang", he wanted to promote him as the protagonist, but Fang Yihua rejected it on the grounds that the Taiwanese market only recognized Di Long. However, even so, when Chen Chong traveled through time, he was already one of the well-known kung fu stars in Hong Kong.
In early 1979, Xu Shaoqiang signed a contract with Li's TV station to film the TV series "Shen Shengyi" series. At this time, in Hong Kong, the TV series was filmed and played at the same time, with five episodes a week. The crew worked very hard. It started at 7 or 8 in the morning and stopped work until midnight, and it was almost time-consuming. Therefore, once the TV series started, it was difficult for the actors to have the time and energy to go out for jungle food and earn extra money.
However, Xu Shaoqiang didn't care. He went out to play the show as long as he had the opportunity and made money crazy. When he was acting in "Crazy Job", he not only acted in "Shen Shengyi" at the same time, but also took the time to go to Chu Yuan to act in "The Mauryan Dynasty"...
Such a hard work is nothing in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Andy Lau is also like this and is praised as a model worker. However, Andy Lau, who has ordinary acting skills, has become the king, while Xu Shaoqiang has always been a second-rate star. The key is that Andy Lau is self-disciplined and self-loved, and has a very high professional quality. Xu Shaoqiang is not only romantic, but also has a drunkenness.
Xu Shaoqiang had divorced a long time ago because of an affair. Now he is married again and has a child, after getting off work on Li's TV, he usually goes to the dance hall for three or four hours of flower wine before going home to sleep. The nightlife is so rich that he naturally has no time to consider work. Therefore, whether it is filming TV series or filming movies, he never brings scripts home. He always goes to the set to look for a drama manager and then recites lines temporarily.
In "Crazy Job", he plays a madman who is mistakenly considered a murderer. He mainly relies on his actions and expressions. In addition, he doesn't have many scenes, and the filming is finished in three or four days. Because of his outstanding performance on the spot, Chen Chong didn't care about his professional attitude, but instead thought about praising him in the future.
However, when "The Legend of Silkworm" became popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan in the second half of 1979, Xu Shaoqiang's shortcomings in professional spirit were fully exposed.
First, he drank too much and disappeared for a day. After returning, he did not apologize, but instead asked the crew to modify their working hours. This made Li's TV station very angry. However, for the sake of the ratings, the crew endured and agreed to his request. Unexpectedly, within half a month, Xu Shaoqiang disappeared again. Xiao Sheng, the producer of "The Silkworm Transformation", was so anxious that he wanted to jump off the building. After checking, he realized that he was going to play the show again. This time he went to Jiahe to film "Famous Sword" for Tan Jiaming. After asking again, he was furious - the protagonist of "Famous Sword" is Aaron Adam, and Xu Shaoqiang is the villain supporting role...
This is all the heroes. Li's "Yun Feiyang" wants to attack HR "Chu Liuxiang". If it is a villain, it will inevitably affect the TV station's face and the ratings of "The Legend of Silkworm".
So Li's TV station sent Jiahe a lawyer letter, and sent a few big men to take him back from Jiahe's set, and then arranged for people to watch him at night to prevent him from disappearing again. But as the saying goes, there are only those who are thieves for thousands of days, and no one who is thieves for thousands of days. If one is not careful, Xu Shaoqiang disappeared again. This time he went there like Huang He, without any news, and he could not find them all in the city...
Madon Heung and Xiao Sheng had no choice but to change the script and replace them. Added the magical skills practiced by Yun Feiyang, the protagonist of "The Legend of Silkworm", to change the appearance setting. Although this change caused a sensation in the whole city and attracted much attention, after a few days, the ratings plummeted and the TV station suffered heavy losses.
Xu Shaoqiang didn't know whether he was encouraged or was passionate. When the dust settled and reappeared, he actually held a press conference, condemning Li's TV station for being unkind and promised him to play movies before signing the contract, so he shouldn't send a lawyer's letter to Jiahe, let alone catch him back on the set.
This incident caused a stir in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, which disturbed many months. Until the beginning of 19RU, under the old senior in the circle, Zhang Ying, known as the "South China Film Emperor", the two sides shook hands and made peace. However, this behavior not only hurts his popularity, but also broke the industry rules - to use people's money and eliminate disasters for others. If you sign a contract, you should live. If you have any opinions, you can discuss and terminate the contract. Even if you strike, it is okay. What is the reason for unilateral disappearance? If you disappear, you will bite your boss in turn. Who dares to invite you to act in the future?
In the movie circle where capital is king, you can be rebellious丨You can spend money on the world, you can be arrogant, but you can't let the boss lose both money...
When "The Legend of Silkworms" was the most popular, Taiwanese film dealers competed to ask him to act, with a maximum price of HK$400,000, which was not low. However, after this incident, everyone gave up.
Chen Chong is not a movie fan now, but a big boss, and his butt determines his head. He looked at Xu Shaoqiang, who was speaking enthusiastically on the stage, he hesitated for a while, but still did not decide whether to praise him.
His acting skills are really nothing to say. He plays a hero on TV, with graceful demeanor and a master's style. He plays a madman in "Crazy Tribulation", with two images with fierce eyes and creepy contrast, but they are easy to use and are not difficult to get. He deserves this award.
However, this guy has a problem with his character. If he remembers correctly, he will soon get into trouble again and get along with Michelle's sister. Chen Chong himself is also a fickle radish. Of course, he will not care about extramarital affairs. The problem is that Michelle's sister Nian Fang 17, and Xu Shaoqiang made her belly bigger as a married man. This behavior is too romantic.
After the Best Supporting Actor, he was naturally the Best Supporting Actress. The one who presented this trophy was also the one who ignored the atmosphere and found two old seniors, one was Wang Lai and the other was Li Zhuozhuo who collaborated in "Crazy Job".
Wang Lai started acting in the 1950s and acted in hundreds of dramas, with countless roles, both good and evil, and diverse styles. He is known as the "Thousand-faced actress". He is a face that Shaw Brothers often sees in old movies. In Shen Chong's memory, she won a total of 4 Golden Horse Awards for Best Supporting Actress, which is super green.
When asked Li Zhuozhuo to present the award, she mainly attracted her qualifications. From Shanghai in the 1930s to Hong Kong in the 1980s, she was completely a living fossil of Chinese films.
The two of them have a big age difference, and they have no topics to talk about, so they will soon be put on the shortlist.
"The first Hong Kong Film Awards Best Supporting Actress, the finalists include:
Zhang Aijia, "Legend of the Mountains"...
Liu Xiaoqing, "Little Flower"...
Li Lie, "Story of Small Town"...
Zhao Yazhi, "Crazy Calamity"...
Ni Yilin, "Ah Cradle"..."
Chen Chong looked at Wang Yang who was speechless and asked in a slight manner: "Old Wang, who do you think you won the award?"
"You kid, are you going to have a trap for me?" Wang Yang made a mistake just now, and his old face was a little uneasy and said with a dark face: "I know two of these five people, and I have never watched the movies in the other three. How do you know who won the award?"
"I thought you would say that Liu Xiaoqing won the award." Chen Chong said with a smile: "It is said that you like her very much. After watching the sample "Little Flower", he patted the table and asked someone to transfer her from Chengdu to Beijing Film Studio."
"Liu Xiaoqing is a rare and good actor. Chinese movies need such talents." Wang Yang said thornyly: "It's a waste to throw her in Sichuan to feed pigs."
"Don't she learn music?" Chen Chong was surprised and asked, "I heard from herself that she studied piano. After graduation, she went to work in the Chengdu Military Region Art Troupe. How could she become a pig raising company?"
"There is no girl in her twenties who doesn't like vain. It's so embarrassing to say that pigs are raising." Wang Yang smiled and said, "After she graduated from high school, she was assigned to work in a farm. The Chengdu Art Troupe just seconded her to perform a play. After the performance was over, she went back to continue raising pigs."
