Chapter 237 Best Feature Film Award

There are three major film awards in the Mainland.

Golden Rooster Award, Huabiao Award, Hundred Flowers Award.

Each of the three major film awards has its own characteristics and its own selection mechanism.

Among them, the Huabiao Award is a government award and an official award.

Award-winning works are generally movies with main themes and positive energy.

The full name of the Hundred Flowers Award is the Hundred Flowers Award for Popular Films. The winning films are nominally the films that the audience likes, and the winning films are nominally voted by the audience.

The Golden Rooster Award is a professional award and an industry award. The winning works are voted by several members of the jury.

The members of the jury are composed of industry insiders and people related to the film industry.

Because it is a professional award, domestic filmmakers pay more attention to the award of the Golden Rooster Award.

After all, winning awards represents industry recognition.

It means that the performances of award-winning actors and the quality of award-winning works are the best in a certain period of time, ranking first in the country.

The selection mechanism for the three awards is very clear, but it has still been criticized over the years and has earned countless infamy.

There is no other reason for this. No matter how good the mechanism is, it cannot be compared to human power.

Jiang Liu is a movie maker, has a movie company, and made his fortune from movies. It seems that he will be outraged by what he did after winning three awards.

But in fact he was not very angry.

He doesn't even care whether the films he has made in the past have won awards.

For him, movies are more of a money-making tool.

But it would not be wrong to say that he does not care at all about the life and death of domestic films and is unwilling to inject personal power into the rise of the domestic film market.

If this is the case, he will not insist on making Korean movies with higher risks.

Go grab Hollywood copyrights and make Hollywood companies unhappy.

Why do you want to break the system for the Yixin crew?

It would be safer to make Chinese-language movies directly for box office revenue, and it would not offend people.

To put it bluntly, he just wants to make money through movies while trying to grab a hold of domestic films and the domestic film market.

Use a scene to describe his mentality: He and another person fell into the water at the same time. After he fluttered ashore to safety, he dropped a hemp rope to the person in the water.

If he can be saved, he will be saved. If he can't be saved, he will have to enjoy his beautiful life after landing safely.

Therefore, he does not care whether his film wins awards or what awards the judges have prepared for him.

The red carpet ended and the guests, media, and audience took their seats. Soon, the theater lights dimmed and the opening dancers took the stage to pose.

Taking this opportunity, Zhang Xianliang, who was on Jiang Liu's right hand, smiled and whispered.

"Mr. Jiang, in the future, there will be scenes in works that need to reflect the desolation of the desert. I am thinking of our Zhenbeibao Film and Television City in the west."

"Of course, you don't need to remind me of this."

Jiang Liu said politely.

Zhang Xianliang is also a top figure in the industry. He single-handedly built Yinchuan Zhenbeibao Film and Television City, where many classic movies such as "Ashes of Time" and "A Chinese Journey to the West" were filmed.

However, the location of the film and television city is too remote, the scenery is too unique, and its development is severely limited.

After the opening dance, the hosts of the 27th Hundred Flowers Awards Pu Cunxi and Zhang Yan took the stage.

The two of them looked back on the past together, looked forward to the future, and read out a series of cold numbers related to the film industry.

Zhang Xianliang glanced at the stage, and then whispered: "I recently discussed with someone about the old movie "Painted Skin" adapted from Liao Zhai. Director Jiang is sensitive to the market and thinks if a new version of "Painted Skin" is made, the audience will buy it."

Jiang Liu blinked, leaned forward, and said, "I can't tell."

2008's "Painted Skin" is definitely a milestone in domestic films.

Many stars in later generations love to rip off their roles. If you really want to say it, "Painted Skin" is the originator of mainland movie stars' rip-offs. Zhou Xun and Xiao Yanzi were so torn apart that the whole world was in darkness.

"Congratulations to Zhang Yan for winning the Outstanding Actress Award at the 27th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Awards for "Warm Spring"."

Seeing the camera lens sweeping towards him, Jiang Liu followed the crowd and clapped his hands.

After the first award was awarded, the host started chattering again, and Zhang Xianliang skillfully tilted his body to the edge of the river.

"Mr. Jiang, are you not interested in this subject?"

"We all know the content of "Liao Zhai". If we adapt it again and the core cannot be changed, we are afraid that it will be difficult to review."

"I am thinking about making a movie for the development of the Western Film and Television City. Whoever dares to deliberately make things difficult for me, an old man, will overturn my desk."

Jiang Liu glanced at Zhang Xianliang with admiration.

Old artists are awesome and tough enough.

At this time, the Outstanding Actor and Best Actress awards had been awarded to Li Youbing and an actress whom Jiang Liu was not familiar with.

There are six Hundred Flowers Awards, including Outstanding Actor and Actor, Best Actor and Actor, Outstanding Feature Film Award, and Best Feature Film Award. "Monster" has not received any for the time being.

But the next moment, the host mentioned Jiang Liu.

"Congratulations to Jiang Wen for winning the Best Actor Award at the 27th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Awards for "Monster". Director Jiang Liu please come on stage to help receive the award."

"Teacher Zhang, I will go on stage to talk later."

"Go."

Jiang Liu stood up, and Mr. Han also stood up and patted Jiang Liu on the back.

Then came Zhong Chengxiang, chairman of the jury, chairman of the organizing committee and others.

Jiang Liu was puzzled. Wasn't Jiang Wen the winner?

"The winner is Jiang Wen, so I won't give him a touching acceptance speech. "Monster" was filmed abroad for more than half a year. It was not easy for everyone on the crew. It did well at the box office. Thank you to the audience for their support, and thank you for the Hundred Flowers Award."

After getting off the stage, Jiang Liu didn't have much time to sit down before he came back on stage. "Monster" won the final award of the Hundred Flowers Award - the Best Feature Film Award.

You say this award is not important, it is the grand finale of the Hundred Flowers Awards, the three major awards in the Mainland.

The presenter of the award is a senior government leader.

You think it's important? The Hundred Flowers Awards only have six awards. The Best Feature Film Award has just been awarded for the Outstanding Feature Film Award, and more than ten Golden Rooster Awards will be awarded later.

Jiang Liu always felt weird with a trophy in one hand and a certificate in the other.

"Director Jiang, please give a speech of honor." Zhang Yan smiled and guided Jiang Liu to the center of the stage.

Jiang Liu didn't have the habit of preparing an acceptance speech in advance, so he had to rely on his on-the-spot performance when he won the award.

But a few steps was enough time for him to think of a speech.

He leaned closer to the microphone, feeling the gaze of thousands of pairs of eyes, and said with a rebellious smile: "It has been almost five years since I entered the industry, and in terms of exposure to the film industry, I entered Nanyit University to study directing, so it took me nine years to enter the industry. "

"Whether it has been five years or nine years, I have finally stood on this stage with a work and won a collective trophy, the Hundred Flowers Award, whose full name is the Popular Film Hundred Flowers Award. The eyes of the audience will always be sharp. I will Keep making movies that audiences love until the day you retire.”

Jiang Liu's acceptance speech made the audience applaud fiercely, grin and whisper to each other.

So much so that the entire venue applauded with laughter, and the laughter included applause.

It's ridiculous for a director who is so young and has achieved so much to say he is retiring.

After leaving the stage amidst laughter and applause, Jiang Liu and Zhang Xianliang continued to chat quietly.

He no longer cared about who won the Golden Rooster Award after that. The Golden Rooster Award did not live up to expectations, and in the end, "Monster" was not given a trophy.

"House of Flying Daggers" won a trophy for best art.

The big winner of the 24th Golden Rooster Awards is "Beautiful Magic City".

Other award-winning films include "Jasmine Blooms", "Thrilling", "Beauty Grass", etc.
