You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 691 ① Best Film ② Wang Quan: Let’s Die ③ Debt of Favor ④ The Secret of the Golden Bamboo Trophy

You Benchang was born in 1933. He should be the oldest person on the scene tonight.

He graduated from Shanghai Theatre Academy. Liao Fan and Xu Zheng are both his junior brothers.

After that, he worked in Jinling. He appeared on the Spring Festival Gala in 1984 and played Jigong in 1985. Only then did he become known to the world.

Apart from Jigong, he has never played any popular dramas. He is also very low-key. "Not competing" is his life creed.

If Wang Quan had not invited him to play in the "Happy Journey" series, he would have kept a low profile until he passed away one day, and then caused the 8090 group to commemorate him for a limited time of one day, and then no one would remember him.

It was also because of "Happy Journey" that director Zhang Yimou invited him to film later, and even Wong Kar-wai invited him to film.

Actually, Zhang Yimou wanted to find his old partner Li Baotian at first, but that person was too eccentric and couldn't get along with Lao Mouzi after a few words. Then Lao Mouzi got angry and found the older You Benchang, which led to this classic about humans and animals.

I didn't expect that after not competing for so many years, I was so old that I actually won the title of the first Golden Bamboo Award Best Actor from several young people who needed more recognition from the award.

So after going on stage, the old man first expressed his apologies to several young candidates, "We Chinese people have always been very particular about respecting the elderly and loving the young. I am old enough, but unfortunately you are not young enough, so thanks to the judges' favor, this award fell on my head. I am really ashamed. I am so old, this award is not very useful to me. What can I do with it? Who can I form a group of four old actors? Where can I find three old men of similar age?"

Xu Zheng, Liao Fan and others applauded and smiled politely. Jiang Wen on the stage and Wang Quan and Fan Wei in the audience laughed happily.

In front of the TV, the audience on the Internet exclaimed that he was worthy of being called Jigong, and these words sounded like what Jigong said.

Some younger friends were not familiar with him, but they instantly fell in love with the old man's humorous speech.

I heard that the old man also had Douyin, and he was very active, so they all went to follow him.

The first video on the old man's Douyin was to recommend the prototype of "A Man's Zoo" to help him attract traffic.

Now there is only one award left, the best film. Zhang Guoli and Lin Zhiling seemed reluctant to end the show too early. They said a lot during the show, which even made people feel a little nagging.

It was not until Zhang Guoli heard a confirming voice in his headset that he invited the award presenter.

Two international superstars, Cheng Long and Leo, walked up to the podium together, and the audience applauded and cheered like thunder. This scene was also discussed on the Internet at home and abroad.

Although Charlize Theron and Nicole Kidman are in front of us, their international influence cannot be compared with that of Jackie Chan, not to mention Leo, who has many famous works in film history.

Just now, Leo got lost, but he was finally found in time. Wang Quan was ready to let Dorothy present the awards to Leo and Jackie Chan on his behalf.

Leo was not embarrassed, and although he was a little fat like Jay Chou, he was handsome after all, and he looked confident.

He had headphones on his ears. Jackie Chan spoke Chinese, and there was simultaneous interpretation for him backstage.

But when he spoke English, Jackie Chan had to help him translate it to the audience.

Among them, Jackie Chan asked him a question, "How many of the nine nominated works have you seen?"

Hearing Jackie Chan's question, the camera immediately gave the audience several directors of the nominated works. Except for Wang Quan, everyone was looking forward to hearing the names of their own works.

In fact, Leo had only seen "Escape 2", but it was a bit disrespectful to say that directly.

So he said: "It's true that I haven't seen all of them, but I think they must be excellent works to be selected by this award from so many works, so I will watch them one by one after the award ceremony, of course, it's better to have English subtitles."

This answer is very decent, and then Leo made another advertisement. The re-released version of "Inception" will be released next Friday.

Wang Quan has said it before, and now Leo is doing it again, which greatly deepens the impression of the audience. Wang Quan does not want to invest too much publicity and promotion funds in an old film. These plus some ground publicity are enough.

Then the highlights of the nine nominated works are shown in turn.

There are pure commercial films "Operation Red Sea", "Happy Journey" and "Wushuang", as well as pure art films "Children of Jianghu", "Killing a Sheep" and "The Last Night on Earth", as well as the commercially successful art film "A Man's Zoo", and "Dying to Survive" and "The Nameless" which are considered to have some art and sentiment.

There are a total of nine movies. Bi Gan feels that he is a newcomer, and it is a victory for his works to be discussed together with those of the big guys.

However, he was cheated by the producers. They made the money, but he took the blame. He still has no investment for his next movie.

So he couldn't help but fantasize that if he won this award, it would be easier to attract investment.

But he was obviously disappointed. In the end, Cheng Long said the five words "Dying to Survive", and movie fans and netizens across the country finally put their hearts back in their stomachs.

Maybe most people think that the best film of the year is "Dying to Survive", even the higher-grossing "Happy Journey 2" and "Ne Zha" can't compare.

But this year's masterpiece won two awards for Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Screenplay. The male lead didn't win, and the director didn't win, which made people sweat.

Well now, the Golden Bamboo Award is off to a good start. If a work of this level wins the award every year, then why worry about Chinese-language films not being popular!

At this moment, the entire Internet is flooding the screen with those four words: Well deserved!

"Next, we invite all the members of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" to come on stage!"

In addition to director Wen Muye, screenwriter Han Jianu, male lead Xu Zheng, female lead Tan Zhuo, male supporting actors Wang Chuanjun, Zhang Yu, and Zhou Wei, the executive producer Wang Quan and producer Yu Feihong also took the stage to accept the audience's speech. Congratulations and applause.

However, Wang Quan did not speak, Wen Muye spoke first.

Wen Muye first thanked Wang Quan: "I worked as an assistant director for director Wang Quan for a period of time. The experience of working in a mature and efficient crew benefited me a lot, so I especially want to learn more from him. Years ago, one day he told me that he thought I could make a movie on my own, but I was really nervous at that time and had no idea where to start. Later, he said he would be my producer and hired Xu Zheng. My teacher co-produced and became my leading actor, and I felt completely at ease..."

There were also a few young directors with high standards in the audience, such as Shen Ao and Dong Yue. They all envied Wen Muye. Their debut films did not have such strong support from Wang Quan, and they were only nominal producers at most.

Wen Muye still had time, so he asked Xu Zheng to say a few words. He affirmed from a high position that this Golden Bamboo Award was a successful award, a mature award, one that he would never forget, and he would like to come every year in the future. Awards.

Since last year, my Golden Horse Award has become worthless. From now on, in the Chinese film world, the Golden Bamboo Award is the most valuable. Therefore, if you want to be the leader of the six major middle school students, you have to grab the box office awards with both hands. .

The box office is no longer a challenge to me, so let’s work hard to win the Golden Bamboo Award!

There will also be a 2019 Chinese new film promotion event later.

For example, Wangdao's "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 4", "The Wandering Earth", "Journey to the West: The Great Sage Havoc in Heaven", "Captain of China" and "Xiaoyaoyou3" are all key projects.

There are also brother companies' "The Climber", "Young You", "Galaxy Tutorial" and "Full-time Master".

As well as other companies' films such as "My Motherland and Me", "Eight Hundred", "Ip Man 4", etc.

It seems that Wangdao has made the most blockbusters and has a wide variety of movies. The software and hardware of other companies are still far behind.

At this point, the more than three-hour awards ceremony came to an end. Fireworks began to be set off above the Dome Theater to celebrate the successful conclusion of the Golden Bamboo Awards. Visitors to Longtou Head Park who bought low-price tickets on this day enjoyed a brilliant fireworks show up close for free. .

Afterwards, the guests in the audience exited in an orderly manner, and the award-winning filmmakers began to take group photos on the stage. Everyone held golden bamboos in their hands and smiled broadly.

At this time, six of the top ten searches on Weibo are about the "Golden Bamboo Award".

On the entertainment list, among the top 20, except for Liu Jiangsheng, the owner of the fashion group, the rest of the hot searches were for the Golden Bamboo Awards and guests attending the conference.

Fashion Group is the parent company of Harper's Bazaar.

After the photoshoot, there was a Golden Bamboo Dinner. Except for the best actor Mr. You, most of the people stayed. After all, this was a very rare social occasion.

Many domestic artists want to take the opportunity to get to know international stars, so even if it is 12 o'clock, these male and female celebrities who pay attention to their faces still have no intention of sleeping.

However, foreigners are just friendly guests. After finishing their work, they go back to the hotel, and some even go straight to the airport to prepare to return home.

Only Gadot and Little K stayed here not out of friendship, but out of family affection, but they basically talked to sisters like Liu Yifei and Yang Mi.

Yang Mi also pointed to a passing female celebrity and introduced her to Gadot. She has a close relationship with Lao Quan.

And Lao Wang acted like a master, helping his son who could not be found to greet heroes from all walks of life.

People like Swift, Nicole, and Theron had already returned to the hotel.

After returning home, he took a shower immediately, and then looked at the time to see whose room he came to first.

King Quan decided to leave the tough battle behind.

So he first knocked on Son Ye-jin's room.

But I didn't expect that there would be a big gathering of Japan and South Korea in this room. In addition to Yoona, Haruka Ayase, Yui Aragaki, and Masami Nagasawa were also there!

Wang Quan shook his head and closed the door. Just die!

The friendship between China and Japan depends on South Korea, and the friendship between China and South Korea depends on Japan.

The royal power used this principle to use Son Ye-jin and Yoona to attack Yui and the others, and in turn used Yui and the others to deal with Son Ye-jin.

In the end, everyone was satisfied, but Wang Quan retained his strength well.

It was already late at night. Wang Quan checked the online situation on Twitter and found that Lily Collins was still online.

Okay, you're next.

At this time, Gao Yuanyuan and Jia Jingwen had gone home. Gao Yuanyuan was still excited and told Jia Jingwen what Wang Quan had said before, asking her to specialize in local movies and take the opportunity to win the Golden Horse Award or something.

Jia Jingwen listened, but she was still thinking, wouldn't it be better if her Wanwan movie could be released in the mainland and if she could win the Golden Bamboo Award?

"By the way, Yuanyuan, have you been in love recently?"

"No~"

"No?" Jia Jingwen narrowed her eyes, "Now you feel like you are exuding damn charm anytime and anywhere, like a woman in love."

"Could it be that you are wrong?"

Jia Jingwen: "What about the fun things in your house? Sorry, I didn't want to take the initiative to look at them. I just happened to see you washing them and hanging them on the balcony."

Gao Yuanyuan's face suddenly turned red. After hesitating for a long time, she said: "It's not really a relationship, just a fixed sexual partner."

"How fixed?"

"He's the one for my whole life!"

"Does he have a family?" Jia Jingwen couldn't help but guess. It's clear that she only wants to enjoy and doesn't want to take responsibility.

"No, okay, let's not talk about this. How about I let you use my little props when you get home."

"I don't want to~" Jia Jingwen sneered, but couldn't help thinking about how fatally attractive Gao Yuanyuan would be to men under the effect of those props.

He was unwilling to take responsibility in the face of such a Gao Yuanyuan. He thought he was the richest man in China!

Wait, the richest man in China!

Jia Jingwen suddenly felt like he had found the answer!

After soothing Lily to sleep, Wang Quan looked at his phone and found a message from Taylor Swift, who said she would leave at dawn and was packing her luggage.

Wang Quan felt soft-hearted, so he walked out ten steps, knocked on the door, went in, and was squeezed by her again.

This time Wang Quan was passive.

Taylor Swift left cleanly and without dragging her feet, so Wang Quan slept in her room.

After sleeping for about four hours, Wang Quan felt that he had recovered and began to repay his debts.

The debt of favor is the most difficult to repay.

Fortunately, some people are not in a hurry to leave, so he doesn't need to repay it within one day.

After repaying the debts abroad, he still has to repay the debts in China. Many of them are obviously very famous, but they were pulled to the Golden Bamboo Awards as background boards by him, without nominations, awards, or performances.

Of course, they are all repaying debts, Zhang Jingchu is rewarded, and Wan Qian is compensated.

Wang Quan specially called the two of them together and asked Zhang Jingchu to bring the Golden Bamboo Award.

Wan Qian caressed the Golden Bamboo Trophy lovingly, she wanted it so badly!

Wang Quan had already told them some details of the final selection and judging. It turned out that he was just a little short of the prize. It was such a pity. If he had made a few more calls, the result might have been different. He might never have such an opportunity again.

Wang Quan also told them a little secret, "Do you know that the two bamboos of the Golden Bamboo Award are 20cm long? What is the meaning of this?"

Zhang Jingchu thought for a while, "Could it be a symbol that movies were born in the 20th century?"

Wang Quan: "To be precise, it should be the end of the 19th century."

Wan Qian's eyes suddenly lit up, and she gestured at the bamboo of the Golden Bamboo Award, and then looked at Wang Quan's waist...
