The moon shines on the nine provinces, and some families are happy and some are sad.

Although the Academy Awards were held for the first time, the overwhelming publicity and the media that fanned the flames made all the candidates full of desire for the trophy. Therefore, after the ceremony, those who won the award were happy, while those who did not win the award were sad.

The most frustrated one is Li Xing. As the most famous director in Taiwan, "Small Town Story" was nominated for seven nominations with the Golden Horse Awards Best Picture, but he was empty-handed and had nothing to get. He was so sad that he was so sad. However, as the head of the delegation, after the ceremony, he had to accept interviews and harassment from reporters at the Western Restaurant in the Cultural Hotel after the ceremony.

"Director Lee, how do you think about the award ceremony tonight?"

“It’s grand, gorgeous, and very grand.”

"This time, Taiwanese movies only won three awards. Isn't it a bit of a big loss?"

"There are four awards." Li Xing corrected: "Legend of the Mountain" is a Taiwanese movie, and Hu Jinquan won the best costume design for this."

"Even so, Taiwan has only won four less important awards, Hong Kong has won seven awards, and the mainland has won six awards, including the most important actor and actress with a heavy weight. What does Director Li think about this?"

"What is an unimportant award?" Li Xing said with a dark face: "Is the best new director not important? Is the best movie music not important? Hou Hsiao-hsien won the award, Li Tai-xiang won the award, and Wang Ju-jin won the award. They are all newcomers, which means that we have many talented films in Taiwan and the future is very bright."

"These three are all behind the scenes filmmakers. What do Director Lee think of the current actors in Taiwan?"

"The Taiwanese film industry experienced a lot last year, like Gui Yalei and Brigitte Lin didn't film much." Li Xing adjusted his emotions before continuing: "They are all very competitive actors. If they encounter good works, they have a great chance of winning awards."

"Small Town Story is the best film in the Golden Horse Awards, but he returned to the Golden Horse Awards for a miserable return. What do you think is the reason?"

"I don't know, I'm not a member of the jury"

"Director Lee, can you comment on the list of winners tonight?"

"I personally think that only five movies in Taiwan have been shortlisted, which is unreasonable. Taiwan produced hundreds of movies last year, and more movies should be shortlisted." Li Xing supported Taiwan and said: "Lin Fengjiao did not win the Best Actress. I also think it's a pity that she played very well in "Small Town Story". Hu Huizhong did not win the Best Newcomer. It's a pity that her talent is obvious to all, and she also won the Best Newcomer in the Asia-Pacific Film Festival."

"Director Li Xing, what do you think about Mr. Zhao Dan's speech during the Lifetime Achievement Award?"

"Mr. Zhao Dan is an actor I respect very much. He has performed many masterpieces that are enough to be recorded in the history of Chinese films." Li Xing said carefully: "The system issues Mr. Zhao Dan talks about are the government's business. They are not in their position and do not do their own politics. I am just a director, just filming."

"But as we all know, Taiwan's political system has seriously restricted the development of films. As the chief director of China Film, does director Lee have nothing to say about this?"

"I don't think there is any big problem with Taiwan's system. We have produced many wonderful movies in Taiwan. We cannot deny them completely because of poor performance last year." Li Xing was a little impatient and said: "As a large production company owned by the government, China Film has the responsibility and obligation to educate the society. We cannot deliberately shoot some movies that do not conform to Taiwan's actual situation because we cater to the market and film awards."

"Will Director Li Xing come to the Academy Awards next year? Compete with two major directors, Li Hanxiang and Zhang Cheung.

"I am planning to shoot a biographical film based on the famous Taiwanese writer Zhong Lihe." Li Xing had a very commercial sense and immediately promoted his movie: "The script of this movie is very well written, twists and turns, and in-depth. I plan to invite Qin Han and Lin Fengjiao to star in it. They are both very excellent actors. Although my purpose in filming is not to win awards, I believe that I will definitely come next year's Academy Award."

Li Xing was sad, while Hu Jinquan smiled happily.

"Director Hu, what do you think about winning the best movie in "Empty Mountain Spirit Rain"?"

"I'm very happy, very happy." Hu Jinquan held a glass of champagne and said with a flushed face: "I want to express the so-called "four greats" of Buddhism through the entanglement of interests of the three forces and the final defeat. This movie has a very average box office in Hong Kong. It's possible to win awards now, which means that my idea has been recognized and I'm very happy."

"Don't you be surprised? After all, before the awards were awarded, "Empty Mountain Spirit Rain" was not favored."

"There is one accident, and the other movies are also very good movies." Hu Jinquan said: "Actually, I am more optimistic about "Legend of the Mountain". After all, that drama won the Golden Horse Award, which has preconceived factors."

"Congratulations to Director Hu, he filmed two movies and won two grand prizes. Do you still have any plans to shoot this year?

"I'm not sure this year because I'm filming very slowly, and it may take a long time to prepare." Hu Jinquan said with a smile: "I have a lot of ideas, but I haven't determined what to shoot yet. Zhong Ling is also helping me with reference. After she writes a script, we'll take a look."

"Director Hu, there were rumors last year that you were planning to film in the mainland, is that true?"

"I can't say it, I can't say it." Hu Jinquan is also an old man and refuses to speak out clearly and said perfunctorily: "This depends on the investors' arrangements, I just need to film."

"Is the investor Mr. Shen?"

"He may invest, but the premise is that I have to come up with the script and shooting plan first." Hu Jinquan smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Mr. Shen thinks that I am easily distracted from filming and not focused enough."

Several reporters laughed...

"Director Hu, the filmmakers from both sides of the Taiwan Strait have been together for several decades tonight, and they are having fun. Do you think Taiwan will lift the ban on Hong Kong movies not allowed to enter the mainland to shoot?"

"Of course I hope this can be done." Hu Jinquan thought for a while and said, "I grew up in the mainland and I really hope to have the opportunity to go back to film. The magnificent scenery of the mainland and the rich cultural relics are incomparable to South Korea and Japan. There are tens of millions of mainlanders in Taiwan. If the ban can be lifted, it will be great for both audiences and filmmakers. After all, mountains, rivers and rivers have always been there. It is not that filming is prohibited, and they will not exist."

"Is director Ann Hui true? I promised her to be the assistant director."

Hu Jinquan laughed awkwardly and said, "There is something that is not something I forgot, but I didn't have any show to shoot at that time. Even if I was promoted to her as an assistant director, I would still do some assistant jobs in organizing documents, so I didn't mention that. Later, when there was a show to shoot, she went to H again and didn't expect that she still remembers it now, haha."

"Can Director Ann Hui be your student? Can you comment on her movie?"

"It can't be counted, it can't be counted. She learned all her skills in the UK. She was from a professional background, not the way I thought about it myself." Hu Jinquan waved his hand repeatedly and said, "She can succeed depends entirely on her own efforts. As for the movie, I also watched it. It is very novel, very Westernized, and has a fast pace. It is completely different from my style, but it is also very good. Young people should like it very much. She is very talented and has a bright future."

"Director Xu, congratulations, I won the best director for the first time filming. How do you feel now?"

"Thank you." Ann Hui put the trophy on the dining table and said, "It seems like I'm dreaming, I can't believe it.

"I heard that you were filming with the world director Akira Kurosawa in Japan, is that true?"

"It can't be considered filming together, I just learn it." Everyone was eating, and the atmosphere of the interview was relatively relaxed. Ann Hui introduced: "Master Kurosawa Aki is filming a movie called "Shadow Samurai". Mr. Chen happened to have an investment. He knew that I admire Akira Kurosawa very much, so he asked me to go to the crew in Japan."

"Then are you considered a job or a study in Japan? Are you at your own expense?"

"No, everything was arranged by Mr. Chen, and food, clothing, housing and transportation are paid by Oriental Charm." Ann Hui laughed and said, "Mr. Chen is a very generous boss."

"It's still free to be able to film with the world's leading directors. I think all Hong Kong filmmakers envy you. Mr. Chen is so nice to you."

"What's good about him?" Chen Yunwen took two small plates containing cakes, walked over, handed one to Xu Anhua, and said in the insult: "Sharpening a knife will not stop chopping wood. Shen Caishen wants to raise Sister Auu and then work for him for the rest of his life."

Her words made all the reporters around her laugh.

"Miss Chen, did you really buy the dress you wear in Paris?"

"Of course." Chen Yunwen was so beautiful, she swung her left and right twice, and said: "The real price is 80,000 Hong Kong dollars, tailor-made by Chanel's chief designer."

The reporter was amazed that the flash lights kept on the slight, attracting the attention of many people.

"Ms. Chen's dress is the most expensive tonight, right?"

"No." Chen Yunwen sat down next to Anhua Xu and said, "The embroidered dress on Zhang Aijia must be more expensive than mine. I heard that the fabric is made by hand. I waited for two months before waiting. Shen Cai Shen pampered her so much, so it must be more expensive than mine."

Several entertainment reporters were a little dumbfounded when they heard this.

China has always had a tradition of not showing off its wealth. Traditional wealthy families in Hong Kong are very low-key. There has never been such a luxurious public party. 80,000 yuan is equivalent to the annual salary of an ordinary working person, and the salary of a movie of a popular star. The clothes bought at such a high price are not the most expensive. Moreover, this is just clothes. How much is the value of the jewelry that matches it?

"Director Xu, how much does this set you wear?"

"My this is very cheap." Ann Hui wore a light gray blouse, which was relatively neutral and looked unremarkable. She said, "It's only a little over 20,000."

The reporter looked at each other and asked one person: "I just asked about it. It seems that the dress that Miss Liu Xiaoqing wore was only more than 10,000 yuan?"

"She is a mass-produced ready-to-wear clothing, and Sister Auu is customized." Chen Yunwen is very knowledgeable about clothing and said: "Liu Xiaoqing and the others arrived a day before the ceremony. They cannot be customized, so they can only use ready-to-wear.

"Does Mr. Chen really give these dresses for free?"

"Yes, God of Wealth is still very trustworthy in speaking." Chen Yunwen said with regret while eating the cake: "Actually, I am too timid. I should go to the chief designer of Chanel. Do you know? Audrey He himself costs at least $100,000 to wear Givenchy dresses. Compared with Hollywood, our Hong Kong is still a remote place."

"Miss Chen, you bought such an expensive dress with Mr. Chen's money. Isn't your husband jealous?"

"Not only is he not jealous, he is also very happy." Chen Yunwen laughed and said, "He said that I wrote a script for Shen Caishen for a year and bought a skirt worth 80,000 yuan. People can still go home every day, which shows that his charm is no worse than Shen Caishen."

"I heard that it took you only one day to write "Crazy Joe" and then you won the Golden Horse Awards and Best Screenwriter. So why did this new script take a year to write?"

"I wrote "Crazy Job" for Sister Auu. She liked it, so she started filming and revised it while filming." Chen Yunwen complained: "But this new script was written for Shen Cai Shen. He is good at everything, but he likes to nitpicking. Every line has to be pondered. He is so annoying that he has changed the script again and again. I still don't remember how many times I have changed it."

"Are you finished writing now?"

"I finished writing it, and it was finally finalized last month." Chen Yunwen said with a giggle: "This dress is a reward, and I will feel relaxed next. It's Sister Auu's turn to have a headache."

"Is this new work directed by Director Xu?"

"I am co-directoring with Yan Hao." Ann Hui pushed her glasses and said, "Mr. Chen has high requirements for this drama, and the scene is relatively large, so it may take more than a year to shoot it. I am afraid that it will not be able to catch up with next year's Academy Awards."

"Is it a big production like Die Hard?"

"It's different, it's not the same type at all." Ann Hui put down the plate and said: "This drama is a biography movie with a longer time and space span, and it pays more attention to the plot rather than the scene."

"Who is Director Xu going to find to act?"

"It's not decided yet, Yan Hao and I plan to take a closer look." Ann Hui hesitated for a moment and said, "We are considering working with mainland actors. You have also seen this tonight. Mainland actors are very capable.

"Director Xu plans to go to the mainland to film? Are you not afraid of Taiwan's ban?"

"This is a movie about Cantonese opera. I think Taiwanese people should not like to watch it." Ann Hui had no idea about banning and said: "Mr. Chen said that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait will not confront each other for a long time, and exchanges and integration will soon become mainstream. The Academy Awards were a good start. I believe him. Maybe when I finished filming this drama, the ban order had been lifted."

The reporters were silent. They were all old people who traveled to entertainment news. Shao Yinyin was banned for more than two years because the American media gave the nickname "Chinese baby". It has not been lifted yet. Ann Hui's remarks obviously underestimated the power of the ban.

"Ms. Chen, you are the most popular screenwriter in Hong Kong now. Do you have a new work plan?"
