This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 1017 Kneeling Very Straight (Two-in-one monthly ticket request)
"Best Screenplay Award..."

The nominees include "Accident", "Time and Tide", "Let the Bullets Fly", "Overheard", and "A Simple Life".

Hao Yun was nominated twice for "Let the Bullets Fly" and "A Simple Life".

This was not a good thing as it would split the jury's votes, but Hao Yun still managed to secure the award.

Since the Best Screenplay Award was won by "A Simple Life", I cannot share it with Jiang Wen.

This is the first award won by "A Simple Life".

But certainly not the last.

However, several awards passed and many of "A Simple Life"'s nominations were lost one after another.

"Let the Bullets Fly" failed even more.

So far, "A Simple Life" has only won the Best Screenplay award, and "Let the Bullets Fly" has only won the Best Supporting Actor and Best Editing awards.

After a while, "Let the Bullets Fly" won the Best Costume Design Award.

There is no way, this is the work of Zhang Shuping, and Zhang Shuping is a native of Hong Kong.

Soon it was time for the competition for Best Actor.

The rest were basically all big prizes. Hao Yun touched the only trophy in his hand...

Damn, the plastic bag is a bit redundant, so I just put it in my crotch and walked away.

"Every time the Best Actor award ceremony is held, it is one of the most exciting moments at the Academy Awards, and this time is no exception."

Zhang Zhen is in charge of presenting the Golden Horse Awards. Although he is not a high-profile person - well, he is not low-key either. In order to star in Wang Jiawei's "The Grandmaster", I heard that he learned Bajiquan and even won a championship.

As someone who has experienced this, Hao Yun has reason to believe that the children he beat might have been eight years old.

There is nothing to be ashamed of. Anyone who can judge the situation is a smart person.

The person who presented the awards together with Zhang Zhen was Shu Qi. This woman has been doing pretty well in the past two years. Not only did she serve as a judge in the competition unit of the 58th Berlin International Film Festival, but she also served as a judge in the official competition unit of the 62nd Cannes International Film Festival the following year.

In addition, he also hooked up with Aunt Hua and starred in Ma Dagang's movie.

Upon hearing this, she immediately smiled and said, "Yeah, I wonder who is today's movie emperor brother. I guess everyone must be getting impatient waiting."

If they didn't waste time on stage, people might not be so impatient.

The two chatted for a few minutes before letting everyone see the nominations.

Hao Yun from "A Simple Life", Jiang Wen from "Let the Bullets Fly", Ren Dahua from "Time and Tide", Wang Xueqi from "The Siege of the City", and Liu Qingyun from "Overheard".

Five faces appeared on the big screen one after another.

In fact, you can't tell much difference just from here, as all five of them are top-notch actors.

Hao Yun is not weak either.

It mainly depends on the judges' inclination.

Liu Qingyun's "Overheard" is a bit weaker. It is obviously more of a commercial film, which is not well received at the Hong Kong Film Awards.

As for "A Simple Life", although the box office was pretty good, no one can say that it was a commercial film.

It's a true art film, and a light-hearted, non-plot-oriented one.

The reason why the movie has a good box office is, firstly, Hao Yun’s box office appeal, secondly, the publicity is very effective and Heidou Media has demonstrated strong publicity and promotion capabilities. This is also the reason why Zhou Xingxing chose Heidou Media to seek cooperation, thirdly, it is the public’s attention to the movie, and fourthly, it is blessed by the halo of winning the Berlin International Film Festival.

Although Wang Xueqi performed very well, it was not easy for him to win an award.

Because there are so many eye-catching characters in "The Siege of the City in October", it is a group portrait drama.

Take Li Ming for example. He only appeared for a short time but he contributed a very exciting scene and his character was also quite eye-catching. Unfortunately, the highlights were mainly reflected in the fighting scenes, so he was not nominated for Best Supporting Actor.

Jiang Wen is even less likely to win an award. His film was nominated for ten awards, but he has lost most of them so far.

Most of the small prizes given out were won by local Hong Kong people.

So, the real controversy lies between Ren Dahua and Hao Yun.

One is a local Hong Kong actor, and the other also developed in Hong Kong. He has participated in many Hong Kong films and collaborated with many big directors and celebrities.

One is a veteran who has fought for decades, and the other is a young man who is in the limelight.

One has a strong background and is very successful in Hong Kong, while the other is a newly emerged overlord in the mainland who has become the number one private enterprise label at a young age and is the partner that Hong Kong filmmakers most want to cooperate with when they go north.

It should be said that the competition between Ren Dahua and Hao Yun for Best Actor was much more intense than the competition between Xie Tingfeng and Chen Guanxi for Best Supporting Actor.

As for the latter, people are more here to watch the fun and have gossip in mind.

However, Hao Yun and Ren Dahua represent the collision between new and old forces in the field of Hong Kong films.

Whether conservatives or radicals, no one actually wants to see Hao Yun win the Best Actor award.

It doesn’t matter whether she wins the Best Actress Award at the Academy Awards or not, Gong Huang, Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, and Siqin Gaowa have all won it.

But the best actor and best director...

This is something that the Academy Awards has never given to "outsiders".

"The 29th Hong Kong Film Awards, Best Actor..." Zhang Zhen looked at Shu Qi. He didn't care who won the Best Actor award at the Hong Kong Film Awards. Their Golden Horse Awards had been won by several people from the mainland.

Shu Qi swallowed her saliva, and under the gazes of many people, she spoke with difficulty: "Best Actor, Ren Dahua!"

There was a moment of silence at the scene, and many people breathed a sigh of relief.

Ren Dahua didn't expect that he would be able to win the award. He has been working hard for 86 years since he played Liang Chaowei's father in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" in 24.

His acting skills are not bad, just a little bit off every time.

And because he always acted in Category III films, his image was too deeply rooted in people's minds, so people always looked at him with tinted glasses.

For example, Shu Qi, who was just announced to have won the Best Actor award, had worked with him in "Red Light District". This buddy is really lucky, as many famous Hong Kong actresses have worked with him.

However, his luck was not good this time.

Friends all thought that he would become a victim of the Hong Kong Film Awards' flattery of Hao Yun.

After all, those judges also need to eat and develop in the mainland.

Ren Dahua had already accepted his fate and did not expect there to be a sudden turn of events. When he heard his name, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Hao Yun.

This kid won't just walk away in anger.

However, there was no expression of surprise on Hao Yun's face.

He clapped freely.

It was indeed a failure, but he still managed to win honorably in defeat.

At least, in the past, it was not surprising that people from the mainland could not win the Best Actor award. It would be strange if they could win it.

Now that the Academy Awards did not give him the Best Actor award, everyone present was surprised.

Ren Dahua passed by Hao Yun and extended his hand to him.

Hao Yun stood up and shook hands with him, and even gave him a hug, and sincerely congratulated this old brother who had been in the entertainment industry for 24 years on winning his first Best Actor award in his life.

Back then, Hao Yun was filming "Infernal Affairs" and was introduced by Liu Furong to the "PTU" crew. Although he was a mainlander, he was not discriminated against by the crew. One reason was Liu Furong's face, and the other was that Ren Dahua was very polite to him.

In the crew that Ren Dahua is in, usually even the director can't help but respect him.

When filming "Gunfire", Ren Dahua insisted on acting according to his own understanding. Du Qifeng had no choice but to let Ren Dahua act in two versions, one was the version required by the director, and the other was the version the actor realized on his own. In the end, Du Qifeng adopted the version the actor realized on his own.

The main reason is that Ren Dahua's brother is very powerful.

When he is in the crew, if there are hooligans coming to cause trouble, any gang will have to give him face wherever he goes.

Ren Dahua treated everyone very politely. The other people in the crew didn't know Hao Yun's background and didn't dare to offend him.

As for why Ren Dahua was so polite to Hao Yun.

That was naturally because he and Hao Yun...had a very pleasant conversation.

After the Best Actor award came the Best Actress award. There was no surprise this time, as Cheng Pei-pei won the award.

Ye Dexian, who was sitting in the audience, felt a pain in his lungs from holding back his breath.

She had wanted to play this role at first, and asked Liu Furong, Yang Shoucheng and others to help her get it.

Unfortunately, director Hao Yun just doesn't like her.

After the movie was released, she went to the cinema to watch it and further confirmed that this role was suitable for her.

She missed the chance to be crowned queen.

The second spring of his career was missed in vain because of Hao Yun's persistence.

She actually wanted to ask Hao Yun why.

Why can't you choose me?
When Hao Yun missed the Best Actor award just now, she was so happy.

The award should not be given to people from the mainland!

All awards in Hong Kong should be given to Hong Kong people.

Holding the trophy, Cheng Pei-pei kept thanking Hao Yun. Everyone knew that she won the award because of Hao Yun's script and because Hao Yun gave her the opportunity.

Of course she herself couldn't have been unaware of this.

Next is the Best Director Award, which is also a major award.

Chen Delin from "October Besieged", Jiang Wen from "Let the Bullets Fly", Wu Yushen from "Red Cliff 2", Mai Zhaohui and Zhuang Wenqiang from "Overheard", and Hao Yun, the director of "A Simple Life".

They are basically old acquaintances.

The Best Director Award is also the preserve of the Hong Kong film industry, with two mainland directors, Hao Yun and Jiang Wen, nominated.

"The 29th Hong Kong Film Awards, Best Director Award...'A Simple Life', Hao Yun!" Liu Wei Qiang, who was in charge of presenting the awards, did not waste time and directly revealed the answer.

There was no way, even Paw Hee Ching, who was presenting the award with him, was stunned.

Everyone at the scene was equally shocked.

I felt so fucking angry.

Many people were disappointed when Hao Yun did not win the Best Actor award; now that Hao Yun has won the Best Director award, even more people are beginning to be disappointed.

You either stick to your position and refuse to give this big award to mainland directors.

Or just be straightforward and give the Best Actor award that Hao Yun wants most to someone else.

The way you're trying to hide this now is no different from someone trying to pretend to be a good person even though he's a gangster.

Hao Yun was happy.

His train of thought was always unusual.

He didn't know why, but at this moment he thought of a scene.

A man broke into a house and saw that the hostess was pretty, so he wanted to rape her, but the hostess would rather die than comply.

Just forget it if you don't obey.

Unexpectedly, the hostess grabbed the robber and took the initiative to have sex with him. I won't obey you if you force me, but it's okay if I take the initiative.

There are many films like this in Neon, probably similar to the ones starring Akasaka Rei...

Hao Yun had a somewhat charming smile on his face, shook hands with the people around him, and then walked onto the stage.

"Thank you, thank you director. Standing on the stage, I recalled the scene many years ago when I first met director Liu Weiqiang and he called me Lucky..."

Hao Yunxian sighed and lamented that time flies.

But he was interrupted by Liu Weiqiang the next second: "It wasn't a few years ago, it was in 2002, Lucky, at your age it's really not appropriate for you to speak so pretentiously."

"Haha~" Hao Yun smiled and continued his acceptance speech.

The final award is for Best Picture…

"The 29th Hong Kong Film Awards, Best Picture Award...'A Simple Life', congratulations to the crew of 'A Simple Life'!" Stanley Kwan and Teresa Mo presented the last award of the day.

No one knows what to complain about anymore.

You may say that they are not brave, but they just didn't give the Best Actor award to Hao Yun, but gave it to Ren Dahua, who has always been a runner-up.

But if you say they are brave, they not only gave Hao Yun the Best Director award, but also the Best Picture award.

This thing has never been shown in mainland movies.

is this necessary?

However, when being interviewed after the awards ceremony, Academy Awards chairwoman Chen Jiashang still managed to praise the jury for their fairness and boldness.

The Best Newcomer award was given to Aarif Rahman, and the Best Director and Best Film awards were both given to Hao Yun, who is less than 30 years old. This indicates that the Academy Awards have blossomed with youthful vitality.

The leader of the review group, Zhuang Cheng, was more frank.

He is the president of the Film Producers Association and the CEO of Asia Pacific Group. From a market perspective, he believes that Hong Kong films have flourished in a new way.

Embracing change is what every Hong Kong filmmaker should do.

Before going out, Hao Yun opened his three certificates. Today's certificates are very valuable: one for Best Screenwriter, one for Best Director, and one for Best Film.

There is also a Best Actress award, and several major awards were basically swept up by "A Simple Life".

Other works such as "October Besieged", "Overheard", "Time and Tide", and Jiang Wen's "Let the Bullets Fly" have all become supporting roles.

[Congratulations to the host for winning the three certificates of the 29th Hong Kong Film Awards: Best Screenplay Award/Best Director Award/Best Film Award, which can store 550/600/650 points of attributes]

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the certificate treasure box (medium quality*1, high quality*2)]

【Open the treasure chest】

[Congratulations to the host for opening the certificate treasure chest (medium quality), and obtaining the script +8 (permanent), script +100 (duration 15 minutes), and the script "Nobody". ]

[Congratulations to the host for opening the certificate treasure chest (top quality), and obtaining Director +10 (permanent), Director +200 (duration 20 minutes), and the script "Joker". ]

【恭喜宿主打开证书宝箱（上品），获得导演+12（永久），导演+250（持续时间25分钟），剧本《死侍1、2、3》。】

What the hell...

Hao Yun was obviously confused.

If his expression had not been a way to judge his thinking, some people would probably think that he suspected that the trophy certificate in his hand was fake.

Deadpool…

Oh, I remember now, Deadpool Wade, the talkative guy who first appeared in "The New Mutants" and appeared in last year's movie "Wolverine".

Starring Ryan Reynolds, whom Hao Yun knew.

But that was just a supporting role. After Deadpool Wade was transformed by Stryker, Wolverine almost died at his hands on the high tower of the nuclear power plant.

At the critical moment, the saber-toothed tiger stood up, and the brothers joined forces to finally defeat it.

Hao Yun has indeed been paying attention to superheroes recently and wanted the system to reward him with some superhero movies, but he didn't expect so many to come at once.

And they don't seem to be superheroes.

Deadpool should be called an anti-hero, and the Joker is a pure villain, a psychopath.

Unfortunately, he didn't have time to study the scripts carefully.

In addition, every time a treasure chest is opened, some temporary attributes are revealed. This is a stable way to make money nowadays when it is difficult for Hao Yun to get attributes.

This means that his path to upgrading attributes has not been completely blocked.

Surpassing the limits and becoming a grandmaster is just around the corner.

Hao Yun had a smile on his face at the cocktail party, which made Mrs. Xiang, who was talking to him, mistakenly believe that Hao Yun's smile was directed at her.

But in fact, Hao Yun didn't want to pay much attention to this self-righteous rich lady.

"In Hong Kong, China Star is the most suitable partner for Black Bean Media..."

Mrs. Xiang looked so noble that even the way she held the red wine seemed particularly elegant and graceful.

"I look forward to the opportunity to cooperate with you." Hao Yun was wondering what was making Mrs. Xiang so restless.

It's actually not hard to guess.

The Hong Kong film industry is not doing well right now. Stephen Chow, who used to be dependent on the Xiang family, has left them and become an ungrateful person. Now he has gone to the mainland, making it even more difficult for the Xiang family to control him.

If that were all, it wouldn't be a big deal. They couldn't control Zhou Xingxing anyway.

There is also Milkyway Image, which was previously merged with China Star.

Now that it has broken away from China Star and has begun to move closer to Hao Yun's Black Bean Media, it is said that it has signed an investment contract for three films with Black Bean Media.

That is, Milkyway Image focuses on filming, while Black Bean Media is responsible for sales.

Of course Du Qifeng agreed.

With the current state of the Hong Kong film market, it is good enough for them to survive and have people willing to support them. They no longer have the ambition to get rich overnight.

Liu Furong's film company was tied to Hao Yun earlier.

Yinghuang and Huanyu were also die-hard supporters of Hao Yun who had been benefiting from his business for several years.

Everyone says that Hong Kong movies are no longer good.

They are all saying they can't survive.

The Xiang family thought the same and racked their brains to think of a way to maintain their family's luxurious life without being censored.

Once you have been cleansed, you don’t want to go back to being black, and there is no way to go back to being black.

The results of it?
They were just worrying about it, when they turned around they found that everyone had fled to the mainland.

They gathered together with mainland capital represented by Hao Yun to enjoy the dividends brought by the booming mainland film market, leaving them in the mess of the wind.

This time, Mrs. Xiang attended the Academy Awards just to get in touch with Hao Yun.

"Do you have any projects that need money recently? Our Xiang family is very financially strong in Hong Kong... If you want to do something in Hong Kong, you can definitely get a smooth journey by mentioning our name. Our strength..."

He comes from a black background and has old-school capital, so his style of doing things is a bit low-key.

It is far inferior to Yang Shoucheng who played the movie emperor.

Yang Shoucheng called Hao Yun and asked him to go to Repulse Bay for tea. He also said that he hadn't seen Edison and Vincy for a while and asked them to bring their children to play together...

He cleverly took advantage of the friendship between Hao Yun and Chen Guanxi.

Although Hao Yun still rejected him because he had to catch a flight back to the mainland tomorrow morning, their telephone communication was very pleasant.

Mrs. Xiang gave him an uncomfortable feeling of being shown off wealth, muscles, and threats.

It's been several generations, why are you still so frivolous?

It seems that those who have been black, even if they become white, can't help but carry around their former style of behavior.

Fortunately, Zhuang Cheng, CEO of Huanya Group, came to find him and Hao Yun was able to escape. Since then, he has been avoiding Mrs. Xiang.

After returning from the dinner, although Hao Yun was quite drunk, he still managed to finish reading the new script he had received today.

"Nobody" is a pretty good script.

The script of "Joker" was a little beyond Hao Yun's expectations. It was somewhat different from the villain clown he had imagined, or it could be said that this was a humanistic art film in the guise of a clown.

As for Deadpool…

He is indeed an anti-hero, this is definitely a script for an R-rated movie.

R-rated films are the first level in the Miguo film rating system, which is restricted. People under the age of 17 must be accompanied by their parents or guardians to watch them.

"The Shining", "Saw" and "Final Destination" are all R-rated films.

This is easier to understand, but can you believe that "Saving Private Ryan" is also an R-rated movie?

The "Deadpool" series has been given three films, but judging by the situation, it doesn't seem to be the end.

I just don’t know whether it will be given to me later.

However, there is no need for Hollywood to continue making such series. It will be the same if someone else does it when the time comes.

In addition, if FC wants to launch this project, it must cooperate with the copyright owner.

"Joker" belongs to DC and "Deadpool" belongs to Marvel. Hao Yun and FC Films are destined to be fence-sitters.

Fortunately, the Chinese film market is now attracting global attention, and both Marvel and DC will not reject cooperation with other film companies. What Hao Yun has to do is to make the copyright holders recognize his script and directing ability.

Then there is the competition for interests between the two parties after the project is established.

Hao Yun returned to the capital the next day and met... well, it wasn't that long since they last met, but An Xiaoxi had grown several times bigger.

In addition to coming back to see his wife, he also wanted to attend the premiere of Lu Xuechang's new film.

After "Kara is a Dog", Lu Xuechang wrote and directed another movie about dogs.

His physical condition was actually very bad.

This movie, which he named "Dou Dou", no longer expresses artistic connotations, but is a warm and touching type.

The leading actors are Hei Dou and Zhang Yi.

Heidou Media invested 10 million yuan and was responsible for the production and distribution of this film.

In fact, Lu Xuechang only asked for a budget of six million, which also included publicity and promotion.

Hao Yun felt that since he hadn't been filming in the past few years, he should try to give him more, which could be considered as improving his life.

When Hao Yun first came out, Lu Xuechang taught him a lot.

At that time, he was very green in both acting and directing, and he followed Lu Xuechang and Ge You all day long.

On the left is the director attribute, and on the right is the actor attribute.

The level has improved by leaps and bounds.

Since the time was just right, Hao Yun brought An Xiaoxi, who was already pregnant, out to meet people.
