Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1048 Layout
"Welcome all guests to come to the evening to attend the [-]nd Hong Kong Film Awards Ceremony. I am Lin Jianming, Liu Zhenrong, Chen Xinjian, Chen Baixiang..."

The four hosts introduced themselves in turn.

This year is the second edition of the Academy Awards. Compared with the previous edition, it can be said that many places have undergone considerable changes.

From the on-site stage, lighting, sound, to the position of the host, although the changes are not very obvious, if you look closely, you will still find subtle differences.

A good awards ceremony is definitely not just about making some gimmicks, but making some tricks to attract people. After all, the protagonist of the awards ceremony is still the movie itself.

"Last year, a batch of well-produced movies emerged, including big productions like "Best Partner", small-budget movies like "Seven Days of Love", and historical ones like "Listening to the Government Behind the Curtain". Big drama."

"Amin is right. Movies are just a general term. There are various genres in them, such as literary films, drama films, kung fu films, funny films, action films, etc., but no matter what type of film it is, you can find people who like it. audience."

Listening to what the host said, it seems that there is no preference for any type, but in fact, if you listen carefully, you will find the difference.

Big productions are high-investment, well-produced, and all big stars are invited, so they naturally aim at the box office.

The same is true for low-cost movies, but even more small-budget films can't be successful, and no one cares about them, so even if they hit the street, no one will pay attention.

But big productions are different. As long as there is a hit on the street, the cast and crew of this show will be notorious for a long time because of this, and it will even become a stain in their lives.

The host did not continue on this topic, because the first awards of the evening, "Best Editing" and "Best Photography" will be presented immediately.

For these two awards, not many people actually pay much attention to them. Even in later generations, everyone pays more attention to the awards for actors. These technical jobs have not received much attention.

The winner of "Best Cinematography" is Huang Yuetai from "Legend of Sword and Fairy", and he is also the photographer of the "Best Partner" series.

And "Best Editing" was won by Zhou Guozhong of "Best Partner".

When he came to the stage to accept the award, Zhou Guozhong seemed a little nervous, after all, this was his first time winning the award.

"Thank you all the judges for awarding me this award. In fact, I still have a lot to learn..."

Zhou Guozhong worked in New Art City. At this time, he was already the post-production manager and director of film editing.

In his previous life, Zhou Guozhong was also the permanent honorary chairman of the Hong Kong Film Editing Association, director and treasurer of the Hong Kong Film Awards Association, and Zhou Guozhong, who is known as the golden scissors, has already begun to show his sharpness.

Both of the award-winning films of these two dramas are related to Lin Daoqiu. This has become the norm at the Academy Awards, and everyone is not surprised.

Some people even jokingly claimed that Lin Daoqiu was not the one to be honored at the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony.

Lin Daoqiu didn't care about these rumors at all, he could say whatever they wanted.

And the next thing to be awarded is "Best Action Design". This award can be said to be very competitive in Xiangjiang.

Candidates include Sammo Hung from "Fu Xing Zhao Zhao", Yuan Kui from "New Shushan Swordsman", Cheng Xiaodong from "Life and Death" and Yuan Heping from "Best Partner" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

"I announce that the film that won the third Academy Award for Best Action Design is...Yuan Heping from "Legend of Sword and Fairy"."

As for the action design award, at the beginning everyone felt that Sammo Hung had a good chance of winning it, but it was reasonable to award it to Yuan Heping in the end.

Hearing that he was not the winner, Sammo Hung looked very calm.

Leaving aside the relationship between the Academy Award and Lin Daoqiu, the martial arts in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is indeed unique. It can be said that the fighting is very cool, which is very different from the previous movies.

However, in recent years, the cooperation between Lin Daoqiu and Yuan Jiaban has gradually become more and more frequent.

From "Tomb Raider" to the previous "Little Li Flying Knife", Yuan Jiaban seems to have become Lin Daoqiu's private property.

Previously, Baocheng Cinemas wanted to cooperate with Yuan Jiaban on a film, but Yuan Heping rejected it, and it was rumored afterwards that as long as it was a movie produced by Baocheng Cinemas, Yuan Jiaban would not accept it.

Although Yuan Heping himself did not say this sentence in public, but from the play before he rejected it, we know that this statement is definitely not groundless.

At this time, the four major martial arts teams in Xiangjiang, Yuan, Hong, Cheng, and Liu, the Yuan family class and the Cheng family class belonged to the Xiangjiang cinema, and the Hong family naturally belonged to the Baocheng cinema.

As for Liu Jialiang being separated from the two theaters, no one can offend him, but he didn't vote for any one.

If you look at it this way, Xiangjiang Cinemas is obviously the leader in Xiangjiang's martial arts team.

In addition to the martial arts guidance team, there is also a special team related to action movies, that is, the stunt team.

At this time, the most famous stunt company in Xiangjiang was dominated by Chen Yiyan's kamikaze stunt team, and he also had excellent apprentices like Ke Shouliang and Luo Lixian.

It wasn't until this time that Sammo Hung gradually realized that Lin Daoqiu's layout in the film and television industry was something they had never imagined before.

If you want to make a big-budget movie in Xiangjiang, stunts such as explosions and speeding cars are absolutely unavoidable, but if Baocheng Cinemas wants to make a movie, there is definitely no way to hire those people from the Kamikaze stunt team.

Therefore, in terms of the production of big scenes, the films produced by Baocheng Cinemas are obviously not as good as those produced by Xiangjiang Cinemas.

As for the existence of the magic studio, a special effects company, they feel even more beyond their reach.

Sammo Hung and the others have already watched Lin Daoqiu's Hollywood movies before, and "The Mummy" Sammo Hung and Yuen Biao also participated in the performance.

It is absolutely impossible for them to shoot that kind of jaw-dropping special effects scene.

Not to mention that it is still unknown what kind of movie "Godzilla" is, which is a top secret.

According to people who have seen some clips of "Godzilla" before, there is absolutely no way that there will be a movie that can compare with it as soon as it is released.

"Is Mr. Lin just talking out of anger or is he already sure about defeating Baocheng Cinemas within two years?" Thinking of this, Sammo Hung's heart couldn't help but hang.

Lin Daoqiu's layout over the years seems to have achieved initial results.
