Chapter 254 The beginning of a good show
On April 19, 2022, at 8:00 a.m., the Hong Kong Film Awards opened on time at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre. As usual, it was an opening performance, and then Chen Jin's acquaintances, Chen Xinjian and Zheng Danrui were officially put in place.
Speaking of Chen Xinjian, this is also a legendary figure. The rank of police before entering the industry was the second-level superintendent, which was especially rare in Hong Kong for more than seven years, when the high position of the police was almost held by the British.
He is indeed a very talented person, which is known from his circulation in the police industry, including the criminal investigation department, the police training school instructor, the detective training school instructor, the anti-corruption department and so on.
As a screenwriter, he entered the industry as an actor, a host, a director, a producer, and went to the management of the company. He was invited to serve as the managing director or chief executive officer of Shao Brothers, Huaxing Records, New Town Radio, Oriental Charm, Oriental Film and Emperor Film. It is not too bright. Later, it was more I became the boss myself, and the scenery is infinite.
He is the first host in the history of the Hong Kong Film Awards. He has been recognized by the audience and professionals for his mature, steady, humorous and erudite style, and has held the position of the chief master of the Golden Statue Award for many years.
Last year, he hosted the Golden Statue Award with Sister Fang. For this reason, as soon as he appeared on the stage, he teased Zheng Danrui, "I'm really not used to suddenly standing with a man. Last year, I thought Miss Anita Mui stole my limelight, but now I still miss the feeling of having a beautiful woman around."
Zheng Danrui is not a good stubble. He deliberately shouted in surprise, "Really? It turns out that you also have this feeling. Me too. Just at the top ten golden songs award ceremony, Dudu and I also cooperated very feeling."
Chen Xinjian stared at Zheng Danrui and seemed to be a little upset. "What do you mean? Shall we go down one first, and then find a woman to come up?" Zheng Danrui shrugged his shoulders and said, "Anyway, if you insist, I don't care. Anyway, I'm not very happy to stand here."
"Ha, you're not happy!" Chen Xinjian looked unhappy, "You think I'm happy, and according to the rules of the conference, I actually want to avoid it, because someone in the movie I participated in has just been nominated for an award."
"Oh, is there anyone who can be nominated for an award for the movie you participated in?" Zheng Danrui didn't believe it, "What kind of big production? Is there such a good thing?"
Chen Xinjian waved his hand and said, "You haven't seen the world at a glance. The movie I just cooperated with is not only a big production, but also a collection of big names. Any one of them is a popular candidate for the movie emperor."
Zheng Danrui suddenly woke up at this time, "Oh, you're talking about "Hot Hand Detective"?" CHEN XINJIAN NOddED SELF-SITEDLY, "TH, BROTHER fa AND KING ARE BOTH THE NOMINATIONS OF THIS TIME'S BEST AWARDS AND POPULAR CANDATES, SO THAT I HAVE BEEN WORRIED THAT THEY WILL ASK ME ABOUT ME ABOUT MYS. I DON'T KNOW. IT'S OKAY, THE CONFERENCE SAID IT DOESN'T MATTER, AND THEY DIDN'T ASK ME."
The two of them made a lot of s, and the Golden Film Awards entered the formal award process. The film awards ceremony is not like the music awards ceremony. The music awards ceremony always mixes important and unimportant awards, so it is not easy to be cold. However, in order to show solemnity, the film awards are the most important and most concerned awards. In the end, it is a kind of torture for those who don't like to look at the front part.
Chen Jin was not willing to watch these before, but when he entered the industry, especially now with different identities, he attaches great importance to it and respects the work of these behind-the-scenes personnel. With them, a complete film is indispensable.
The first one to be awarded is the Best Film Song Award. The winner is the song of the same name of the movie "Like an Old Man". The composer is Luo Dayou, the lyricist is Lin Xi, and the lead singer is Sister Fang, who is not far away from Chen Jin.
The second award is the best film soundtrack. This award is one of the people that Chen Jin respects most - Uncle Ji won. This is Uncle Ji who has won this award for two consecutive years, and the director is also the same person.
Last year's "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and this year's is "Huang Feihong". The directors are all Xu Ke. No wonder when Uncle Ji came to the stage to receive the award, he joked, "Director Xu and I are really predestined. Everyone says that it is difficult to do, but he is my lucky star. It seems that I have to pinch my nose and put up with it."
The next four awards of the best art director and best photography, best editing and best action director are shared by Andy Lau's movie "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and Xu Ke's movie "Huang Feihong". The first two are Andy Lau's, and the last two are Xu Ke's.
When the award for the best newcomer was awarded to Liang Zheng, the supporting role in the movie Black Cat, and the award for the best screenwriter was awarded to Ma Dangxiong and others in the lame, half of the time had passed, and the real highlight began to be staged.
However, it is embarrassing that "The Biography of 500 Million Detective Raylo" has not received even a little comfort in so many awards, although they are small awards.
Chen Jin's face was also a little tense. He was not unhappy, but a little nervous. To put it bluntly, if he didn't win a single prize in "The Legend of 500 Million Detective Ray Lo" in the end, the 100 million box office won last year would become an embarrassing record.
100 million box office can be regarded as Chen Jin's success, but if there is no award, those entertainment notes can't be taken out to gloat. This is the world. When you are awesome, everyone sings praises. If you fail, a lot of people will step on you morally, not to mention entertainment!
During the break before the award of the Best Supporting Actress Award, Andy Lau had already got up and gone to the backstage. He came to present this award today. Before going out, this guy did not forget to tease Chen Jin, "Don't worry, KING, no matter whether it's you on the list or not, I promise to call your name, just wait to win the prize!"
Chen Jin didn't show weakness and curled his lips, "Go, get out of here. Didn't you just get some small prizes? I'll tell you, next, you wait to congratulate us!"
At this time, Brother Qiang smiled and patted Chen Jin on the shoulder and said lightly, "If you don't have a word, I'll let someone kill all these guys." Andy Lau didn't want to participate in their banditful topic. First of all, he slipped away, but Chen Jin curled his lips, "You think well and want me to make me black. The pot."
Brother Qiang smiled and said, "You can carry it on your back. I can't do it." There is also a reason why he said this. It's also a coincidence. A few days ago, he went to the Yacht Association in Qingshui Bay with several leading figures, but he saw that Chen Jin and Chen Zichen just got off a luxury yacht, and then went directly to Zheng's villa not far away. The two of them fell in love with each other, so he didn't say hello.
How can it not be clear who Zheng's villa is? No matter when Chen Jin is qualified to go there, this represents the affirmation of Chen Zichen's family. Perhaps, there will be variables. This kind of thing about the big family is very cautious and rigorous, but this matter is When you come out, you can almost be sure that there is a big Buddha behind Chen Jin.
Coupled with his own mysterious ability, even Brother Qiang suspected that there was some unknown background behind Chen Jin. Brother Qiang once again adjusted the position of Chen Jin in his heart, and the estimate of Chen Jin's energy reached another height.
Chen Jin didn't know that Brother Qiang happened to see the time when he took time to accompany Chen Zichen to play in the sea. Hearing his words, before he could speak, Uncle Shrimp next to him answered with a smile, "Don't worry, don't worry, do you have a lot of money?"
The first important award, Best Supporting Actress, began. Andy Lau and Xiao Fangfang came to the stage to present the award. Chen Xinjian first asked Xiao Fangfang, "Sister Fangfang, do you think that if the supporting actress wins the award in a movie, but the heroine has nothing, not even a nomination, is this another way to grab the play? "
Xiao Fangfang shook her head with a smile, "This should not be counted. After all, the two people have different jobs, different roles and roles."
Zheng Danrui asked Andy Lau, "Hua, what about you?" Andy Lau smiled and said, "I'm a man. Can I not answer this question?" Chen Jin obviously saw this guy glance at him before he said, "In fact, as Sister Fangfang said, the role of the protagonist and the supporting role is different, and it is very difficult to grasp. Both of them may be particularly outstanding, but it is difficult for the protagonist to rely on He won the award for a while, but the supporting role may be enough.
Chen Xinjian asked with a smile, "Are you complaining that you actually acted very well sometimes, but you didn't even have a nomination?" Zheng Danrui even fell into the well: "Yes, or are you saying that the supporting role is not worth winning the prize?"
Andy Lau laughed and said, "Hey, you two, don't frame me. I'm going to win the award next year," and he took the opportunity to say, "Let's take a look at today's nomination list, okay? Everyone below is in a hurry!"
The best supporting actresses are Wang Zuxian in "The Biography of 500 Million Detective Lei Luo", Guan Zhilin in "Don't Talk about Marriage", Ye Tong in "The Lame Hao", Wu Jiali in "He Ri Jun Comes Again" and Ye Dexian in "Dancing with the Dragon". After watching the title clip on the big screen, Andy Lau was about to tear open the envelope and take out his name. Shan, Chen Xinjian asked again, "Hua, to be honest, who do you prefer to win the prize?"
Zheng Danrui nodded in agreement and said, "Do you want your girlfriend Miss Guan Zhilin to win the award, or Miss Ye Dexian, who has always been calling her godmother?" Chen Xinjian immediately joked, "I heard that some unfilial children forget their mother when they have a wife, don't they, Huazi, you should be careful in your choice!"
Hua Zai laughed. As he tore open the envelope and took out the list of winners, he said, "You all guessed wrong this time. In fact, I prefer another person to win the prize." When the list was pulled out, he took a look. "I was shocked" and said, "Ah, how can it be a man?"
He gave Xiao Fangfang a look at the list again and said with a smile, "It's a man who is going to give the award. Congratulations to Chen Jin." At this point, he delayed a long voice. When almost everyone was stunned, he answered, "Girlfriend, Miss Wang Zuxian, please come on the stage!"
Wang Zuxian is not popular, but even if there is a nomination, she is sure. When she heard the name, she was a little in a trance. She thought it was a joke again, but she didn't care to say that. She would be a little embarrassed.
Until Chen Xinjian took over the confirmation, Andy Lau also smiled and said sorry, "Sorry, I promised KING just before I came up. I was afraid that he couldn't get the movie emperor, so I called his name in advance, which was a comfort."
Everyone was happy. Sister Fang also pulled Wang Zuxian. Wang Zuxian woke up with an inexplicable surprise on his face. He hugged several people in the neighborhood, but he didn't have Chen Jin's share, and then ran to the stage quickly.
Taking the trophy from Xiao Fangfang's hand, there was still an unconcealed excitement. Chen Xinjian joked with a smile, "Miss Wang Zuxian, why are you so excited? Did you win the prize, or did you finally publicize your relationship with KING?"
Wang Zuxian did not become stupid because he won the prize. He replied very skillfully, "You just heard that Hua Zai was joking," and then took a look at the goddess trophy and changed the topic. "It's okay, it's not a joke to win the prize, otherwise I'll ask Hua Zai to compensate me."
Then there was the award-winning speech, thanking the director, parents and so on. Instead, I didn't avoid talking about how to talk about Chen Jin. Instead, he praised generously and said, "Thank you, King. He is really a good actor. He allows us all to play better."
This sounded like a compliment, but Guo Fucheng, including Yuan Kui and others, agreed very much. Chen Jin not only acted well by himself, but also brought his counterpart to a better level of performance.
Finally opened. Chen Jin and Brother Qiang looked at each other and smiled. A GIVEMEFIVE came. Soon, Andy Lau, who finished the award, came back. Wang Zuxian had to go backstage for a short interview because he won the award.
When he sat down, he just turned his head to tease Chen Jin. At that time, Chen Jin had already stretched out his hand and grabbed his neck. "You're cruel, don't give me a chance, or I'll see how I will treat you."
Brother Qiang also coaxed, "If you don't get the movie emperor tonight, you have to blame him. What he said is equivalent to letting Miss Wang Zuxian take away your luck." Chen Jin immediately understood, "That's right, let me think about it. I'm still free tonight. I heard that your "Ninety-one Condor Heroes" is on sale, and you won the prize again today. Do you have to invite us to have a good meal and have fun?"
Andy Lau finally broke free and curled his lips without gasping. "You are shameless. You earn so much money a year. My friends and I don't have as much as you. You have the nerve to let me invite you to dinner."
He took Zhang Xueyou with him. Unfortunately, Zhang Xueyou not only didn't help him, but also echoed Chen Jin with a smile. "I think King is right. If he doesn't win the prize, you have to take out some compensation to comfort him tonight," but he also joked Chen Jin, "After all, he is still a little brother and needs someone. It hurts at home.
Andy Lau rolled his eyes angrily, "You are really unrighteous. I see if you still have this idea when you wait for the award of Best Supporting Actor."
