Director of Rebirth of Xiangjiang

Chapter 645 The unspoken rules of the best actor and actress (seeking subscription)
Japanese movies are now moving closer to Two-dimensional, and the box office of live-action movies is really not too bad.

This also directly caused the Tokyo Film Festival to be a bit cool.

Every year when the Golden Statue Film Festival comes, there will be more than 50 tourists in Xiangjiang. In order to provide these people with a place to live, DreamWorks has specially built more than a dozen three-star hotels around Yinghong Stadium. It is used to accommodate people who come to the film festival.

In fact, it's not just DreamWorks doing this, but other real estate developers have also built this kind of not-so-high-end hotel in Tianshuiwei to meet the accommodation of these tourists.

The number of tourists in Xiangjiang has been increasing slowly over the years, part of the reason is that the Golden Film Festival is becoming more and more popular, and many movie fans from all over the world will gather here.

They were also moved by the garden-like city of Tianshuiwei, so they served as tap water, and the metropolis of Xiangjiang gradually became famous all over the world.

There is nothing I don’t like about Tin Shui Wai, a garden city, and there are many tourist attractions here, such as watching superstar singers’ concerts in the gymnasium, which invites well-known singers from all over the world to hold concerts here during the film festival.

Many singers are willing to do this kind of mutual benefit, so the film festival basically doesn't cost much.

I don't know how many movie fans were delighted by this move, which is one of the reasons why they worked so hard to gather here from all over the world.

And DreamWorks Paradise is also a big attraction, where many Westerners can feel the charm different from Disneyland.

There are also film and television city, game city, comic exhibitions, museums, Victoria Harbor and other places where people can wander.

Of course, there are shopping paradise Tin Shui Wai Pedestrian Street and Central Street.

These are places that many tourists like. Finally, there is another place that cannot be ignored, that is, the cuisine of Xiangjiang. Many Chinese delicacies here make many foreign nuts linger.

To be honest, Zhao Hong is not at all surprised that the Academy Award has come to this day. This is mainly related to the popularity of his own movies. Xiangjiang's movies are currently famous all over the world.

It should come as no surprise that there is an influential film festival under the circumstances.

But how to make the film festival bigger and stronger remains to be discussed.

First of all, it needs to be integrated with business, and currently the Golden Statue has also done it. The transaction volume of films exhibited during the film festival is as high as several hundred, and the turnover is hundreds of millions of dollars.

Many small European and American film companies are also trying their luck here with their films, and if any theater operator takes a fancy to it, it will be a waste of money.

It is impossible for their movies to be released here without this ability and strength.

Another thing is to have a good movie, if there is no good movie, talk about balls!
In addition, there must be a good environment, like the water city of Venice, which makes many people yearn for it. People can take it as a meaningful trip while participating in the film festival. This kind of thing that kills two birds with one stone feels very cost-effective.

Perfect with delicious food at the end.

I'm sorry, but the current Xiangjiang all meet the standards.

Since Zhao Hong presided over the Golden Statue Awards, she has been committed to promoting cultural exchanges between the two sides of the strait and the three places. It is not limited to one area, such as restricting mainland films to participate in film festivals, etc., nothing at all.

This has also led to mainland films repeatedly gaining a lot of money at the Golden Film Festival in recent years.

This is mainly because the mainland is really good at shooting literary and artistic films, and there are indeed fewer directors in Xiangjiang who shoot literary and artistic films. Many Hong Kong filmmakers are willing to cooperate with mainland directors in order to win awards. This is also a disguised promotion. cultural exchange.

There are also a lot of awards won by Wanwan's movies here, and Wanwan's literary films during this period are still very powerful.

Last year, director Hou Hsiao-hsien directed the feature film "City of Sadness", which won the Golden Lion Award at the 46th Venice International Film Festival.

At this time, there are some literary masters in Wanwan, such as: Hou Hsiao-hsien, Edward Yang, Zhang Aijia and so on.

What's interesting is that the film "City of Sadness" was invested by DreamWorks, and all the credits used in the end were swallowed up by the Wanwan authorities. Those who didn't know thought it was their achievements!

Although this movie is a literary film, its box office is not bad, with a total box office of more than 3000 million US dollars in the world.

Under such circumstances, the two sides of the strait and the three regions are evenly divided in the film festival, and the three companies received almost the same awards.

It is very difficult to get the best actor and actress at the Golden Film Festival. It may be easier for the first time. As long as it is in the same batch of films and the film is not bad, the performance is the best. , If the acting skills are similar, it will take a lot of public relations.

Wei Wei's PR is still allowed at the film festival, otherwise how would the judges get extra money.

If the performances are similar, people choose who to choose.

This kind of fairly fair public relations Zhao Hong generally doesn't care about it, 'When the water is clear, there will be no fish'

But the difference is too big, it is impossible to be publicized, this is no longer a question of money, it is a matter of principle.

This is to ensure the gold content of the award.

There is another thing, that is, although there is no such thing as a best actor and actress, it is quite difficult to win an actor or queen for the second time.

One of the important indicators is that you have to break through your previous self. If there is no major breakthrough in performance, it is impossible to win awards again.

Even if the acting skills of the newcomers competing on the same stage are inferior to theirs, it is not suitable, and they will still be given to the newcomers.

The reason why Zhao Hong did this is to leave more opportunities for newcomers. If the winners of each award are those old faces, then the film festival will be a stagnant pool.

It also fails to achieve the purpose of supporting newcomers.

The reason why Cannes is well-known all over the world is that it has introduced many well-known directors who took off after participating in Cannes.

Zhao Hong still remembers that at the original space-time Golden Image Awards ceremony, there were those few people every time, which felt meaningless at all, and there were many actors who won the Best Actor or Best Actress one after another.

In this case, it is easy to dampen the enthusiasm of actors.

Some actors with solid acting skills, because they frequently win awards, they will rest on their laurels and have no spirit of innovation again. Newcomers are blocked by their seniors. It is very difficult for them to get ahead, and they are not motivated to hone their acting skills high.

Zhao Hong's operation is to make everyone on the same starting line, even actors with superb acting skills are no exception.

The same is true, and the same is true for directors. If they don't have any substantial breakthroughs, it will be very difficult for them to win the best director again.

It is because of such unspoken rules that newcomers have emerged one after another in the past few years. Many artists also attach great importance to acting skills, and many old-timers are also determined to force themselves to make breakthroughs in acting again.

It can be said that since Zhao Hong took charge of the Golden Film Festival, only one actor has won the Best Actor twice.

That is Fa Ge, his wonderful performance of Xiao Ma in "The True Colors of Heroes", and the two personalities in "God of Gamblers" are harmonious and natural, without any sense of disobedience.

There is basically no objection to him winning the best actor twice.

Even the Ever-changing actor Liang Xiaoguo only won the actor once.

It is conceivable that it is really not easy to win an award.

Many people assert that it is impossible for Fa Ge to win the Best Actor Award, mainly because it is too difficult for a person to break through after his acting skills are finalized, but he himself is very optimistic and wants to stand on this stage again in his heart .

Therefore, I have never slackened my own acting skills.

Zhao Hong communicated with filmmakers in the circle, and everyone spoke freely, as long as he could propose a good plan for the Golden Film Festival, he would adopt it one by one.

In fact, the basic framework of the Golden Film Festival has been established so far. In the future, as long as more attention is paid to the fairness of film awards, the influence of the film festival will become more and more loud.

Zhao Hong is gradually increasing the number of selection committee members for mainland filmmakers, intentionally or unintentionally. Of course, all the filmmakers invited are those with real talent and non-rigid thinking. For example, director Xie Jin, who is one of the few mainland filmmakers What a director who can tell a good story.

Over the years, with the support of DreamWorks, he has made many blockbuster movies.
