Chapter 147 Lost three games in a row
On April 15, 2007, the 26th Xiangjiang Golden Star Awards were held at the Xiangjiang Cultural Center. On the night of that day, reporters from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three regions gathered here. A red carpet was laid out in front of the cultural center. At the end of the red carpet was a red and black signature board on the steps.
This is the first time Shao Yingxiong has attended the Academy Awards ceremony. While waiting to walk the red carpet, the people who have walked by him are all the most popular figures who were once obsessed with Hong Kong films, especially when they looked at Wen Jun, Liu Qingyun, Tan Jiaming, Zeng Zhiwei and others who were surging in the film industry in the Hong Kong film era, this feeling is very dreamy.
When Shao Yingxiong, Zhang Ziyi, Liang Chaowei walked on the red carpet together, Shao Yingxiong was surrounded by Liu Weiqiang and behind Ren Dahua, he stood up inexplicably and stood up straight. He was never nervous when he saw the big scene when he was just starting out.
He was used to it. The years of hard work in the circle made him get used to the calmness of being in the long spear and short cannons.
"Shao Yingxiong!"
"Boss Shao looks at this!"
"Zhang Ziyi!"
"Liang Chaowei!!"
While the reporter was clamoring for these big stars to give them a face, the atmosphere on the scene was getting more and more popular almost with the alternating flashes and shouts.
Liu Ruoying, Zhou Jielun, Aaron Kwok, Zhou Runfa, Zhang Jiahui, Zhou Xun, Lin Xilei, one after another, and Shao Yingxiong and others had already walked to the signature wall. What they were waiting for was a group photo with the host Zeng Zhiwei.
Many celebrities started to enter the venue after taking a photo together. From this second, they have become competitors.
After entering the venue, Shao Yingxiong discovered that the crew of "The Grandmaster" was the most calm group of people in the entire venue, and there were not many nervous people among these people!
Liang Chaowei won the Best Actor Five times. "Chongqing Forest", "Spring Light", "Flowers in Love", "Infernal Affairs", "2046", he is not short of the Academy Awards this time; Zhang Ziyi has a cold face, and even nervousness is not easy to be noticed; Wang Jiawei doesn't care, he is not the "Best Director" who has won the Academy Award; as for Shao Yingxiong, he cares more about when he can win the Best Actor, rather than the Best Supporting Actor.
As a result, a very strange small circle appeared in the venue. In this circle, no one whispered, and even if a big star passed by them, they would just give in politely.
When the lights in the venue dimmed and soft music came out, a beam of light appeared on the stage. Under the light, the emcee Zeng Zhiwei who had just walked up from the backstage. Behind him was a big screen, and the trophy silhouette of the Golden Horse Awards was on the screen.
Wow.
When Zeng Zhiwei bowed to everyone, the cultural center got up and applause was everywhere. When Zeng Zhiwei got up, the moment the applause fell: "Every day of the year, everyone will gather here to check the performance table, and at the same time, they will also reward those film workers who have made great contributions to the film."
"What did he say?" Zhang Ziyi lowered his head and asked Shao Yingxiong.
Long-term collaboration with Xiangjiang filmmakers allowed Shao Yingxiong to understand some Cantonese, but once Zeng Zhiwei recited Cantonese in a series quickly, Shao Yingxiong couldn't understand it anymore. Before he could speak, Liang Chaowei explained it politely in a bit awkward Mandarin, and Shao Yingxiong was happy to be free.
However, Liang Chaowei could not explain later. Zeng Zhiwei was too good to speak. It took him five minutes from entering the scene until now. His expression cooperated with him and his gestures, and he completely made up for the shortcomings in height...
"The 26th Xiangjiang Film Awards officially begin!"
It was not until this sentence came out of the speaker that Zeng Zhiwei turned around and stepped down.
In that second, the huge screen behind Zeng Zhiwei pulled away to both sides. After Lin Zicong, Zeng Baoyi and Zhang Jiahui walked out, Shao Yingxiong realized that Zeng Zhiwei was just a opening remark, and the real emcee was these three.
The three of them sang and talked together for another three minutes before Lin Zicong said: "The first award tonight is the new director award... Please invite the award presenter, Miss Liu Ruoying..."
Zeng Baoyi continued: "Miss Lin Jiaxin."
The endless long-lasting words started on the stage again. At this time, Wang Jiawei turned around and said, "Boss Shao, did you bring a remote control?"
Shao Yingxiong smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't expect to press 'fast forward'. It's already very good to not let you watch the shots taken in 'femtosecond'."
Zhang Ziyi listened to the two of them laughing while laughing, and said, "You two should really go to the stage to talk."
At this time, the award on the stage was awarded, and the new director award was won by Wu Qianzu for "The Four Heavenly Kings".
Immediately afterwards, the award ceremony continued. Shao Yingxiong watched with his own eyes the Best Art was won by Huo Yanxiao in "The City is All Golden Armor", and the Best Clothing Design Award was taken away by Xi Zhongwen in "The City is All Golden Armor". In a blink of an eye, the picture of his heart, which had been crippled, actually fired the first shot at the Golden Armor Awards.
The moment when Shao Yingxiong turned his head and looked over, he saw Zhang Weiping gritting his teeth. Zhang Weiping turned around and looked at him with the look of eating people.
Fortunately, the Heart Pictures did not have three consecutive shops. The Best Action Award was won by Yuan Heping's "Huo Yuanjia", the Professionalism Award was given to Wen Runling, and the Best Movie Music Award was given to Jin Paida of "Isabella". In a blink of an eye, the Heart Pictures popped up again, and "Riding a Thousand Miles" actually won the Best Asian Film Award.
Shao Yingxiong was indifferent, but Wang Jiawei said, "And the eye."
He did find it annoying, because he helped Huayi film "The Grandmaster" to compete with Xinhua. Now Xinhua won three consecutive awards in the early stage, but Huayi has not had any awards. How could Wang Jiawei feel comfortable?
The progress of the Academy Awards will not stop for a private sentence from Wang Jiawei. The next best visual effect and best sound effect are given to "Ghost Domain". For filmmakers, the real grand prize has just begun!
Best New Actor Award!
That is the so-called Best Newcomer Award.
The actor industry is competing for acting skills. Although some awards also consider the actor's qualifications and experience, the Best New Actor Award is competing with a group of newcomers, and whether it depends on strength.
"The 26th edition of the Best New Actor Award, please invite the award presenters, Xu Xidi and Xu Xiyuan."
When Big and Xiao S walked onto the stage together, Shao Yingxiong looked at the direction where Zhang Weiping was. The previous awards were not shortlisted because there were no Huayi people, so Shao Yingxiong refused to comment. Now it is different. Sun Li, the best new actor award, was shortlisted. At the same time, Zhou Jielun, who jumped from the music circle to the entertainment industry. This was the first collision between Huayi and Xin's picture at the Golden Star Awards.
"Hey, aren't you a member of the variety show industry?" Big S said this quips when she saw Xiao S.
Xiao S immediately fought back: "Hey, do you want to pretend that you don't know me?"
"Okay, I admit that I have no connection with the film industry. I'm going to visit Liang Chaowei and Liu Qingyun, uh, pave the way."
"Paving the way? Do you want to act in a movie?"
"Oh..." Xiao S sighed and said, "I think I'm too late. The actors are getting younger and younger. Wu Jingtao in "Father and Son" is only nine years old this year..."
"So young?" Big S pretended to be surprised.
Xiao S continued: "This is not the youngest. Little baby in "Baby Plan" was less than one year old when she performed."
"Wow!"
Hearing his sister's voice, Xiao S called Big S like a funny thing: "Can you be more serious? You're fake."
Big S smiled and said with a reserved look: "Okay, next, please see the list of the 26th Xiangjiang Academy Awards for Best New Actor."
Hearing this, Shao Yingxiong let out a long sigh. Seeing the two sisters cheering on the stage, Shao Yingxiong almost turned his back on the back. He couldn't find any laughs at all, but the two sisters on the stage were having fun.
There was a scene where Liu Qingyun helped Ho Siyan train. This drama is the movie version of "I Want to Fame", and the nominee is Ho Siyan; then, the big screen continues to change, and the girl Pei Weiying in "Dog Bites Dog" is also nominated for the best newcomer; later, Zhou Jielun in "The City Whole Golden Armor", Sun Li in "Huo Yuanjia", and Wu Jingtao in "Father and Son" appeared on the big screen one by one.
This is the first time that Shao Yingxiong and Zhang Weiping have been bayonets in the awards. If this game continues to lose, then Hua Yi will be able to play a 4:0 game in the whole first half. There will be more strong opponents in the second half, and it will be even more difficult to equalize.
"The 26th Xiangjiang Film Awards...The winner of the Best New Actor Award is..."
The drum beats thunderously, and the scene was filled with tension. Many shortlisted actors pursed their lips nervously under the camera and made a reluctant smile with their stiff faces.
"Wu Jingtao, "Father and Son"!"
Wow!!!
Applause rang out, and Wu Jingtao, who was in a crew of "Father and Son", walked out in a white suit, looking a little adult.
When Shao Yingxiong was looking at Zhang Weiping, he found that Zhang Weiping was not looking back. He turned around and whispered to Zhang Yimou on the side.
Wang Jiawei turned his face and said, "Zhang Weiping seems to have won a sure victory, which is very annoying."
Shao Yingxiong whispered: "Are you afraid? Are you afraid of losing?"
"Lost? This is the Academy Award, here, I can't lose!"
Wang Jiawei's confidence is unquestionable. It is already very clear to his four movies that helped Liang Chaowei win the Best Actor Award four times. What's more, "The Legend of Ah Fei" also allowed Leslie Cheung to win the Best Actor Award. If Wang Jiawei could win three in the real grand prize, with the value of the award, he could also let Hua Yi overwhelm the picture. Therefore, he said that it would be impossible to lose at the Academy Awards. What's more, Wang Jiawei is the darling of the Academy Awards. He and Liang Chaowei joined forces to make many fans question the multiple awards awards.
