If you are asked to make a graduation film, you will win the Golden Bear Award?

Chapter 265 Eight Billion Dollars!

"Shishi, it's time to go on stage to receive the award." Lu Chen made a move to pat Liu Shishi on the butt, but thinking of the cameras on site, he quickly patted his back.

If the butt is really slapped, no close-ups will be arranged. I don’t know what the media reporters will say.

"Hmm~" Master Liu wiped away his tears.

Crying and laughing at the same time, so cute.

"Shishi, congratulations." Zhang Manyu handed the trophy to Liu Shishi who came on stage.

I also know that Liu Shishi has been under a lot of pressure recently. Since the Golden Horse Award last year, all three of the four actresses have won the award, and only one is left. It will be really embarrassing for whoever is left.

"Thank you, Teacher Zhang Manyu." Master Liu bowed and couldn't stop crying.

"Come, share your joy with the guests and the audience watching the live broadcast." Zhang Manyu pulled Liu Shishi to the microphone.

Liu Shishi controlled his emotions, held the trophy tightly in his right hand, and first thanked the Hong Kong Film Awards Organizing Committee and the jury.

After that, he thanked Director Lu Chen deeply, "I think my fans all know how I entered the film and television industry. I accompanied my friends to participate in the casting selection of "Sword and Sword" at that time..."

Lu Chen also stopped talking with his neighbor Shao Yifu and looked at Liu Shishi who was delivering his acceptance speech in the audience.

"If Director Lu hadn't told me that I was suitable for acting, I would not have given up ballet dancing and entered the film and television industry." Liu Shishi said.

He started crying again, unable to control his emotions, "If it weren't for Director Lu's appreciation and guidance, I wouldn't be able to achieve what I am today and become a famous movie star. Director Lu made me what I am."

As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Lu Chen in the audience.

Cried harder.

Now that he has won the Best New Actor Award, he has proved himself.

Live up to Director Lu’s expectations.

There will no longer be any reports on the Internet saying that Director Lu has misjudged me.

Master Liu didn't want Director Lu's vision to be doubted by the public because of himself.

Zhang Manyu asked for tissues from the staff and handed them to Liu Shishi.

Everyone envies the four little actresses from the Mars family. They feel that the four little actresses are extremely lucky. They were the first to be appreciated by Director Lu, the first to join Mars Film and Television, and were paid close attention to by Director Lu.

Looking at it this way, it is indeed the case. The film and television resources obtained by the four actresses are unmatched by other female artists of Mars Film and Television.

But if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. The four Xiaohuadan members have been compared with each other, especially the fan groups of the four, who are attacking each other. This will definitely have an impact on the actors themselves.

Even if Yang Mi and Zhao Liying won awards at the Golden Horse, there are still some netizens who say they are vases, not to mention Liu Shishi, who has never won an award at a major film festival.

This reminded Zhang Manyu that when he first debuted, he was also described as a vase by the Hong Kong audience. Only after cooperating with Director Wang in "Carmen in Mongkok" did he gradually get rid of the title of vase.

"Thank you~" Master Liu took the tissue and wiped his tears, "Thank you everyone for your support."

After saying that, he stepped down, mainly because he couldn't speak and couldn't control his emotions.

When Liu Yifei saw Master Liu come down from the stage, she quickly got up and changed her position so that Master Liu could sit next to her senior brother.

"It seems that Shishi is very excited to win the award for the first time." Zhang Manyu encouraged Master Liu, "Shishi, just win it a few more times in the future."

Master Liu cast a grateful look at Zhang Manyu in the audience, and then sat next to Lu Chen, holding the trophy tightly in his hand, "Director Lu, I won the award~"

Sometimes, Master Liu really feels that he is just a little girl.

Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, and Zhao Liying have all been in love with Director Lu, but she has not.

Film festival awards too.

Now that I have won the award, am I qualified to fall in love with Director Lu? Liu Shishi, like the other three, followed Director Lu when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.

Director Lu has already been deeply ingrained in his heart and cannot be erased. Everyone wants to be with Director Lu finally.

"Master, you are great. Keep up the good work in the future." Lu Chen praised.

"Director Lu, I will continue to work hard~" Master Liu nodded, looking at Lu Chen with even more affection, without any reservation, it could be seen at a glance.

This made Lu Chen very embarrassed, so he had to avoid looking at the stage. It was impossible for his eyes to meet each other, because the cameras were all facing him.

The awards presentation continued on stage.

Soon it will be time to award the Best Actress award.

"Let us solemnly invite Director Lu Chen to come on stage to present the award for Best Actress." The host Zhang Jiahui used Mandarin this time, but the pronunciation was quite non-standard.

Lu Chen straightened his clothes and went on stage.

Also presenting the awards with Lu Chen were Hong Kong actress Kwan Zhilin and Jet Li starring in the "Thirteenth Aunt" in the "Once Upon a Time" series.

"Director Lu, hello, I'm Zha Zhahui." Zhang Jiahui bent over and stretched out his hand, introducing himself in broken Chinese.

Although Lu Chen is a mainland film capital, his influence in the Hong Kong film industry is extremely high.

The director who is currently the box office champion of Hong Kong movies.

I also know the bosses of Yinghuang Group and Huaguoxing Group.

Just now, I had a great chat with Shao Yifu who was in the audience. He is already the favorite of all Hong Kong artists.

Not to mention, now that the Hong Kong film market is in decline, Hong Kong artists all want to develop in the mainland, and the most indispensable movie boss in mainland movies is director Lu Chen.

"Hello." Lu Chen stretched out his hand and couldn't help but laugh while listening to Zhang Jiahui's introduction.

"It seems that Director Lu is in a very happy mood." Guan Zhilin noticed the change in Director Lu's expression and immediately found a topic to talk about. Being on the same stage with Director Lu this time is also a great opportunity to make publicity, so he must talk more.

Just like the supporting actors who follow the lead actors, they must know how to add drama to themselves and increase their attention.

"That's for sure." Zhang Jiahui took over, "Director Lu and our beautiful lady are both presenters, so he must be in a happy mood."

"It would be great if this is the case." When Guan Zhilin said this, he looked at Lu Chen, and the meaning was obvious, "I believe that Director Lu's good mood must be related to the nominated Liu Yifei, but it has nothing to do with me. If If it really has anything to do with me, I would be so happy."

Zhang Jiahui continued to chat.

Everyone knows that Lu Chen is low-key and talks very little when he has been an award guest several times, and Director Lu talks even less when accepting the award.

Zhang Jiahui chatted with Guan Zhilin for a while.

It’s time to announce the list.

The two of them also consciously kept their mouths shut and had to leave the stage to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen picked up the envelope and slowly tore it open.

Nominated for Best Actress at the 26th Academy Awards are Gong Li for "The City of Gold", Liu Yifei for "Better Days", Liu Luoying for "Happy Birthday", Mo Shunjun for "The Real Man 2", Liang Luoshi for "Isabelle" pull".

Gong Li in the audience was waiting for the announcement of the list. She was not nervous at all, and her aura was still very strong.

Although Gong Li has won the Best Actress at the Venice International Film Festival and the Best Actress at the Golden Rooster Award, and has won countless awards, she also wants the Best Actress at the Hong Kong Film Awards.

Mainly because I have never won an award at the Hong Kong Film Awards.

But I also know that the odds of winning are slim.

The review of "The Golden Armor" is not as good as that of "Better Days". "Better Days" has not only influenced the film industry, but also caused huge repercussions in society, promoting the anti-bullying bill on campuses.

Although this is the Best Actress Award, it depends on the actor's performance in the movie, but the movie itself is also very important. No matter how strong your acting skills are, if you act in a bad movie, it is almost impossible to win the Best Actress award.

Of course, "The Golden Armor" is not a bad movie, but compared with "You Are Young", it is still far behind.

"'Youth', Liu Yifei." Lu Chen announced simply.

"The 26th Hong Kong Film Awards, Best Actress, winner, Liu Yifei, "Young You"." Guan Zhilin continued quickly and spoke in much more detail.

"Clap!"

There was thunderous applause at the scene.

"Congratulations, Yifei!" Yang Mi, Zhao Liying and Liu Shishi in the audience immediately congratulated and were also happy that Liu Yifei won the award.

There is also envy in my heart.

Liu Yifei has already won the Baihua, Golden Horse and Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Actress for "Young You".

As a queen of the most influential film festivals in Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, I can imagine that Liu Yifei will be particularly popular tomorrow.

Mainland actor Liu Yifei is definitely the only one to win the Best Actress award at the three major film festivals in Mainland China.

Mainland honors are on par with Gong Li's, the only difference is the international awards.

Liu Yifei calmed down, stood up and thanked the applauding audience behind her. Her eyes were red, but she didn't cry. She controlled her emotions, unlike Liu Shishi just now, who couldn't control it at all.

"Director Lu, trophy~" Guan Zhilin hurriedly handed the Best Actress Award to Lu Chen's hand with special care. When he looked at Lu Chen, the hint was even more obvious.Lu Chen did not look at Guan Zhilin, otherwise he would be photographed and reporters would have to scribble. He handed the trophy to Liu Yifei who came on stage, "Yifei, congratulations."

Liu Yifei took the trophy and threw herself into Lu Chen's arms, hugging her tightly, "Brother, I didn't embarrass 'Miss Chen'."

Her red eyes still shed tears.

I still can't control my emotions when I see my senior brother.

Looking back on my collaboration with my senior brother on "Sword of Immortality", I have received a lot of doubts.

As the fourth female star, she is most valued by her senior brother. The film and television resources given to her are first-class film and television resources not only in the Chinese film industry, but also in the world film industry.

Some netizens said that with so many film and television resources, even amateurs who are not from professional schools can still become popular.

Now she has won the Best Actress award at three major film festivals: Baihua, Golden Horse, and Golden Statue, and has finally proven herself. Looking back on the filming of "Young You", she cut off her long hair, which can be regarded as cutting off the baggage of being an idol.

Someone said before that he had a single image, but he had a good face and received special care from his senior brother.

Now with "Young You", I can finally shut up those who doubt me, and I can also say loudly that I have never been embarrassed by my senior brother.

"It's time to give the award speech." Lu Chen patted Liu Yifei on the back and motioned to stop hugging her. There were so many people watching and it was live broadcast again.

Liu Yifei let go of her hands, took a few deep breaths, held back the remaining tears, and arranged the hair in front of her eyes. Now it was real hair, and her hair had already grown out.

When he came to the microphone, he first thanked the organizing committee and the jury, and then his senior brother, "Actually, I have always felt that my talent in the film industry is not good, but my senior brother gave me strong self-confidence."

"I have appeared in many classic film and television works that have been rated as classics by the audience. Last year's "Young You" directed by my senior brother also allowed me to star in "Chen Nian", who had the most roles in the movie. I won the Baihua, Golden Horse, Xiangjiang and other awards. Award for Best Actress..."

As he spoke, tears began to fall again.

"Director Lu, here~" Guan Zhilin carefully held the tissue and asked Director Lu to hand it to Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei wiped her eyes, looked at the applauding crowd in the audience, and showed absolute confidence, "I am the 'Chen Girl', I am proud of my senior brother, and I also hope to become my senior brother's 'pride' in the future."

"Clap~"

There was warm applause again from the audience.

Everyone has seen "Young You", and Liu Yifei's performance in it is really amazing.

Liu Yifei's previous work was "Inception", and then "You are a Young Man". The contrast between her images in the movie is so great that sometimes people can't tell that they are played by the same person.

After Liu Yifei said her heartfelt words, she stepped forward and took Lu Chen's hand, "Brother, let's go down."

The camera quickly focused on it, and even took a close-up of the interlocked hands.

Although everyone knows that director Lu Chen is diligent in changing his female companions, Liu Yifei is indeed his favorite.

In front of the public, Lu Chen couldn't shake off Yifei's hand, so they had to walk off the stage together.

"Let us congratulate Liu Yifei for winning the Best Actress at the 26th Hong Kong Film Awards." host Zhang Jiahui applauded, "The Hong Kong Film Awards also gave birth to a new best actress. Let us remember that the name Liu Yifei, the Hong Kong Film Awards, Hundred Flowers from the Mainland, Best Actress of the Golden Horse Award from Treasure Island."

The awards ceremony continued.

Soon we will come to the main event, the award for Best Director.

Nominated are Tan Jiaming in "Father and Son", Zhang Yingmou in "The Golden Armor", Lu Chen in "Young You", Du Qifeng in "Exile", and Zhang Zhiliang in "Ink Attack".

Award presenters Tony Leung Chaowei and Gong Li, Xiangjiang and mainland artists.

In the past, Hong Kong artists looked down upon mainland artists.

But since entering the 21st century, times have changed, and the mainland film market has developed.

Not to mention that there is a director Lu Chen from the Mainland. Mainland movies now have a single movie that has exceeded 10 billion. This is absolutely impossible in Hong Kong. There is no single movie in Hong Kong that has exceeded [-] billion.

The box office champion is still "Wushuang" directed by Director Lu, with a box office of more than 7000 million.

"Teacher Gong Li, please." Liang Chaowei and Gong Li came on stage.

Gong Li smiled at Tony Leung and felt quite emotional. She came to Hong Kong in the 90s to film "Tang Bo Hu Spots Autumn Fragrance" and was treated unfairly, but now Hong Kong artists have to respect mainland filmmakers.

Even if you don’t respect it in your heart, you don’t dare to show it on the outside. If Xiangjiang loses the mainland market, then Xiangjiang Film will definitely die immediately, and no matter how hard you save it, you can’t save it.

Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, and Zhao Liying began to get nervous. They all wanted Director Lu to win the Academy Award for Best Director again.

"Teacher Gong Li, do you feel a little disappointed that you didn't win the Best Actress Award at the Academy Awards this time?" Liang Chaowei mentioned the Best Actress Award just now.

If it were in the mainland, no one would say anything.

However, Xiangjiang artists don't care much and know that this can increase popularity.

"I'm a little bit disappointed, but mostly congratulations." Gong Li answered very generously, "Yifei can be considered half of my students. I have always felt that Yifei has a bright future. I am very happy to win the award this time. , Yifei is well-deserved, her performance in "Youth" was brilliant and very touching."

"It turns out that Yifei is a student of Teacher Gong Li. No wonder her acting skills have improved so much compared to "Inception"." Liang Chaowei praised.

"I don't dare to take this credit. It is Yifei's own efforts, and of course Director Lu. Director Lu is Yifei's most important master." Gong Li praised Lu Chen again.

"Director Lu's ability to train actors is recognized by everyone as the strongest." Liang Chaowei changed his tone, "Speaking of Director Lu, I have to say that "The Dark Knight" is currently being screened around the world."

Talking about the big screen behind him.

The images of the films of the five nominees for Best Director changed directly.

There is only one poster.

Batman: The Dark Knight.

Under the poster is the global box office, followed by question marks with no numbers.

Come again?

Lu Chen was quite speechless. He did it once when he participated in the Baodao Golden Horse Awards last year.

But at that time, it was the global box office of "Kung Fu Panda".

This is the Best Director award ceremony, which is seriously off topic.

"I think everyone must want to know what the global box office of "The Dark Knight" is now?" Liang Chaowei said, and then asked Gong Li, "Teacher Gong Li, do you want to know?"

"Of course." Gong Li also looked at the screen behind her.

Lu Chen really convinced the Academy Awards organizing committee, and the box office of "The Dark Knight" was reported in newspapers every day. This is no secret.

There are also a series of question marks behind the global box office, making it seem particularly mysterious.

"Then let's reveal the global box office of "The Dark Knight" together." When Liang Chaowei said, the '?' behind the box office. 'Has changed, turned into numbers, rolling rapidly, "Three, two, one!"

The numbers stopped rolling.

873844590!

"Eight hundred and seventy-seven million three hundred and eighty forty thousand dollars!" Liang Chaowei shouted excitedly.

"Clap~"

There was warm applause from the audience.

Everyone congratulated Lu Chen.

Lu Chen was speechless. He thought the winner of the Best Director award had been announced, but it didn't matter whether he won it or not. This time he came to participate, accompanying Liu Yifei and other Martian artists.

"Brother, "Batman" is heading towards the US$9 million mark, and it has not been released in Asia, Japan, South Korea, Oceania and South America." Liu Yifei was particularly happy.

The global box office of "The Dark Knight" will definitely exceed 9 million US dollars, and 10 billion US dollars is not a problem. There are still more than [-] regions around the world where it has not been released.

"Yifei, you don't read the newspaper every day, and it's not like you don't know these numbers." Lu Chen saw that the numbers on and off the stage were more than yesterday, but it was still one more day of results. The total difference was not big, so it was necessary to keep it so mysterious.

"Come, let's take a look at the audience's expectations for "The Dark Knight," which is about to be released in Japan and South Korea." Tony Leung said.

Big screen numbers have disappeared.

Replace it with images from Japanese and Korean movie review websites.

Is it over?

Lu Chen was really convinced. This was the Academy Awards ceremony, not the "Batman: The Dark Knight" celebration party. It was completely off topic.

The organizing committee of the Hong Kong Film Awards also made this arrangement to enhance the influence of the Hong Kong Film Awards overseas.

With Director Lu participating, there will definitely be audiences overseas who will watch the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony. The most popular film overseas right now is "The Dark Knight," so I have to talk about it and satisfy the wishes of overseas audiences.

Not only overseas audiences are paying attention, but audiences in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and mainland China are also paying attention to "The Dark Knight." The film director is also on the scene, so he can't take advantage of the popularity.
