China Entertainment Times 1999

Chapter 122 Golden Rooster Award for Best New Director!
There was a scene in "A Sigh" that left a deep impression on Lin Xuan.

The girl injured her foot after climbing a tree and jumping down. The screenwriter carried her back to her room and applied medicine.

There is nothing revealing in that scene, but it is full of eroticism. The girl's lip-biting action is very seductive and is a masterpiece.

After watching the movie, Lin Xuan suddenly discovered that "A Sigh" and "Adult Style of Love" told similar stories.

One is an extramarital affair and the other is a long-distance relationship.

Now Director Feng is being ridiculed by the media, but he has dragged Lin Xuan into the whirlpool.

The headlines and content in the newspaper are extremely inflammatory.

Those people are real dogs, they like to stir up trouble, and I hope to see them quarreling and fighting would be even better.

At this moment, the Golden Rooster Award popped up again to add fuel to the fire.

The list of nominees for the 20th Golden Rooster Awards has been released, and Lin Xuan was nominated for the [Debut Director Award].

Feng Xiaogang's "A Sigh" failed to produce any results, and only his wife Xu Fan was nominated for the "Best Supporting Actress Award".

This made Director Feng very angry. He denounced the shady story of the Golden Rooster Awards in the newspaper, angrily scolded the judges for being biased against commercial films, and even said that he would never participate in the Golden Rooster Awards selection.

The emergence of the Golden Rooster Award shortlist made the media circle very happy.

They immediately divided into two groups, one interviewing Feng Xiaogang and the other interviewing Lin Xuan.

At the critical moment, Wang Zhongjun stood up. He first publicly spoke for Feng Xiaogang.

Later, he found Feng Xiaogang privately and reminded him not to be led by the unscrupulous media. We are all one family.

On the other side, Wang Zhongjun called Lin Xuan and asked him to pay attention to his words and deeds.

It's best to stand up and help and say a few nice words to Director Feng.

Huayi has two million-dollar directors under his command, which is the envy of many film and television companies, but only the Wang brothers know the sadness.

Feng Xiaogang has a short temper. During interviews with the media, he scolds him whenever he disagrees with him and says whatever he wants.

Lin Xuan is not a soft persimmon. He is an actor who dares to hit the Hong Kong market even before he is famous. He is also a stubborn ass when it comes to his temper.

Thanks to Wang Zhongjun's mediation, the conflict between the two was prevented.

When Director Feng was interviewed, he focused on complaining about the Golden Rooster Award.

When asked how to evaluate Lin Xuan?
He only said that Lin Xuan is a good screenwriter and has great talent for making movies.

Seeing that he didn't scold him, Lin Xuan returned the favor and praised Feng Xiaogang as the most successful commercial film director in the Mainland.

The two exchanged business blows and resolved the potential crisis.

But everyone knows that if something like this happens, it will definitely make the two of them feel uncomfortable, especially Feng Xiaogang.

As a veteran director, he makes commercial films that he is good at, but his box office performance is actually not as good as that of a newcomer.

This is a great shame and humiliation for him, and he must be holding back a big move to make his next movie a blockbuster.

…………

The filming on the crew's side continues as usual.

Not long after the filming of the second story started, Chen Kun, who plays Hu Wenzhong, joined the cast.

When new actors join the cast, they are inevitably cautious and worried about saying the wrong thing or doing the wrong thing.

However, Chen Kun was not without foundation. Li Shaohong and Zhou Xun called Lin Xuan one after another to ask him to help take care of them.

Rong Xinda is very fond of Chen Kun and plans to train him as his future brother.

Being entrusted by others is a matter of loyalty, not to mention that Zhou Xun has already paid the reward in advance.

On the first day Chen Kun joined the crew, Lin Xuan greeted him in public, and the crew asked him out for a meal after work was over.

On the one hand, it is to reassure him, and on the other hand, it is also a warning to the veterans in the crew.

"Director Lin, thank you so much."

Chen Kun knew what he meant by doing this, so he was very grateful.

"It's okay. Zhou Xun has a good relationship with me. She called here specially. I must take care of her."

Lin Xuan patted his shoulder to show his closeness, and then reminded:
"I'm quite relieved about your literary performance, but you need to put more effort into your martial arts.

Fei Wenzhong is an extremely skilled martial artist, and he has many martial arts scenes, so you can't rely on using a stand-in for all of them. "

This version of "Detective Di Renjie" is very different from the original version in terms of fighting scenes.

In the original version, most of the martial arts scenes were done by body doubles, which resulted in the fighting being entirely edited or in long shots where no faces could be seen.

It looks fierce, but lacks the beauty of action and visual shock.

In this version, because Lin Xuan knows martial arts, he can do various routines very handsomely.

Therefore, when Qian Yanqiu was filming his scenes, he filmed them normally, and the martial arts director was responsible for imagining how to look handsome.

This means that the actors who play opposite Lin Xuan must also have a good foundation in kung fu.

Otherwise, it will definitely affect the final look and feel of the TV series.

After hearing what he said, Chen Kun immediately said:
"Before joining the group, I went to a martial arts class to train for a month. If the moves are not too difficult, it should be no problem."

"Okay, I also know how to study in advance."

Lin Xuan likes actors who do their homework before joining the cast.

Because I have been a director, I know that if the actor does not prepare in advance, it will often result in NG or ineffective performance, which is really torture.

A few days after joining the group, Chen Kun had his first scene, which was also the first battle between Fei Wenzhong and Li Yuanfang.

This scene is a night scene, and the performance of the actors determines when the crew can call it a day.

Chen Kun did do a lot of training before joining the group, and he has been practicing martial arts routines with the martial arts instructor since joining the group.

The filming that night went smoothly, and the battle scenes were filmed in less than two hours.

Back at the hotel, Yan Danchen had finished taking a shower and was waiting for him on the bed.

"Are you finishing work so early tonight?"

It was just before eleven o'clock, and he usually didn't come back until early in the morning.

"Today's play went very smoothly. Chen Kun didn't miss anything, so the progress was naturally fast." Hearing this, Yan Danchen asked curiously: "You seem to care about him."

Lin Xuan explained: "He is Rong Xinda's artist, and Li Shaohong is also my benefactor."

"Yes." Yan Danchen was dubious.

Otherwise, women are born to be detectives.

This slight difference in treatment made her suspicious.

…………

In mid-November, the temperature began to drop, and Lin Xuan began to wear thick clothes when going out in the morning and evening.

Yan Danchen's scene was about to be completed. Before leaving, in addition to feeding him a few hearty meals, he also bought him several sets of autumn clothes and long trousers, fearing that he would catch a cold.

Shortly after she left the crew, Lin Xuan was also preparing to take leave and set off to attend the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony.

"Adult Style of Love" was only nominated for the "Debut Director Award". Lin Xuan originally planned to go there quickly and return alone.

But Fan Xiaopang called him as soon as he got the news and said that he would accompany him to the award ceremony.

On the one hand, she is the heroine of this drama, but on the other hand, she is afraid that Lin Xuan will be too lonely walking on the red carpet alone.

Regarding her explanation, Lin Xuan could only laugh and say nothing. Fan Xiaopang was famous for his love of walking on the red carpet.

Speaking of Xiaopang, during this time she was also on the crew filming "Young Man Bao Qingtian 2".

As the movie became popular, Xiaopang's status in the TV industry also increased, and he had the capital to compete with Li Bingbing.

She found many connections and persuaded Wang Jinhua, and finally she succeeded in ousting Li Bingbing and became the female lead in "Young Man Bao Qingtian 2".

At this point, the two completely fell out.

Li Bingbing also called and complained that Lin Xuan didn't take care of his woman, which made Fan Xiaopang go crazy and grab other people's resources everywhere.

Lin Xuan had nothing to do about it.

Although Xiaopang has no shortage of resources, there are still too few high-quality resources in the industry.

It would be strange to have such a small amount of meat, surrounded by a pack of wolves, not to fight to the death.

…………

11 month 20 number.

Lin Xuan took Baoqiang on a plane to Guizhou Province, and Xiaopang had already arrived one step ahead.

The Golden Eagle TV Arts Festival is a star-studded event, and the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival is even better than it.

Take a look at the festival shortlist.

"My Father and Mother" directed by Zhang Yimou and starring Zhang Ziyi, Zheng Hao, and Sun Honglei won the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival.

"Life and Death", directed by Yu Benzhen and starring Wang Qingxiang and Liao Jingsheng, was the box office champion in the mainland this year, with a box office of 1.2 million.

"My 1919", directed by Huang Jianzhong and starring Chen Daoming, He Zhenjun and Xu Qing, won the Huabiao Award for Outstanding Story last year.

"Beautiful Mom" ​​directed by Sun Zhou and starring Gong Li. Gong Li won the best actress in three film festivals with this film.

Directed by Chen Guoxing and starring Li Xuejian, Li Youbing, and Chen Jing, "The World" is not to mention a must-see classic.

The local government attaches great importance to the film festival and communicates with the guests in advance and arranges for dark-colored cars to take them to the hotel.

From a distance, Lin Xuan saw Fan Xiaopang standing at the door to greet him.

The people coming and going in the hotel are all big shots in the industry.

There were many media outside taking photos, as well as passers-by joining in the fun.

The little fat man appeared at the door at this time, and his intentions were known to everyone on the road.

"Director Lin, it's been a tough journey."

Fan Xiaopang took the initiative to give him a hug.

It doesn't take long, only two or three seconds.

Allowing outside media to take photos can cover up the scandal and leave room for explanation by both parties.

After all, Lin Xuan is a director and a friend. It's not a big deal to give him a hug after not seeing him for a long time.

Your random thoughts show that you have too many dirty things in your mind. This kind of etiquette is too common abroad.

Lin Xuan didn't bother to reveal it, so he hugged her and walked into the hotel with his suitcase.

"Sister Hua, why are you here?"

In the hotel lobby, Wang Jinhua was chatting with someone, and Lin Xuan walked over in surprise.

Hearing this, she turned back and said with a smile: "You two have been selected for the Golden Rooster Award. Of course I want to come and see it."

Lin Xuan took a closer look and saw that the person talking to her was Chen Daoming.

The two of them were both artists under Wang Jinhua, but they met only a handful of times.

When the beating incident happened last year, Chen Daoming helped to speak, so Lin Xuan has always been very polite to him.

"Brother Chen, long time no see."

"Three days have passed since I left. I'm so impressed. I just won the Golden Eagle Award for Supporting Actor, and tomorrow's new director will also be inseparable."

Chen Daoming stood up, smiled and shook hands with him.

He quite likes Lin Xuan, he has good looks, temperament, talent, and blood.

The role of young Kangxi in "Kangxi Dynasty" was recommended by him, but it was a pity that Lin Xuan did not go for it.

"The awards haven't been announced yet, so I don't dare to make random guesses. I'll save myself the joy." Lin Xuan said modestly.

Wang Jinhua saw the two shaking hands harmoniously, and she couldn't be happier.

During the Black Sea Red Sun period, people in the company knew that Chen Daoming and Lin Xuan were the two artists Wang Jinhua valued most.

Even Fan Xiaopang, a goddaughter who knows how to make people happy, can't compare to them.
