Chapter 232 [Higher Film Awards] (Subscription Request)
Beijing, the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony.

Lin Youcheng was naturally very happy to win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Screenplay. After all, he was originally a screenwriter and was on another path in literature.

Lin Youcheng won the Best Screenwriter Award, and the staff of "The Whistleblower" crew naturally sent their congratulations one by one. This is also the first significant award won by the "The Whistleblower" crew.

After this, the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actress has little to do with "The Whistleblower", because both Pan Hong and Liu Xiaoqing are nominated for Best Actress, and the crew could not let Pan Hong, who plays Li Ningyu, nominate for Best Supporting Actress. After all, Li Ningyu and Gu Xiaomeng are the two heroines of "The Whistleblower", and now both of them are nominated for Best Actress. I just don't know how the Golden Rooster Award jury will decide later.

It is special to say that although Pan Hong lost a lot of limelight to Liu Xiaoqing in "The Whistleblower", another movie she starred in, "The Last Empress", was also nominated for the Golden Rooster Awards. However, this time she was not nominated for Best Actress, but the leading actor Jiang Wen was nominated for Best Actor.

The award for Best Supporting Actress was announced, and the winner was Ding Jiali from "The First Woman in the Mountains".

In terms of the Best Supporting Actor, the crew of "The Sound of Wind" has considerable competitiveness, because the nominee for Best Supporting Actor is Hong Kong Film Award winner Leung Ka Fai.

However, Leung Ka Fai did not come to Beijing to attend the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony. I don’t know if the jury will consider this reason. After all, Leung Ka Fai’s acting as Bai Xiaonian in “The Whistleblower” is definitely worthy of an award.

Soon, the award for Best Supporting Actor was announced. Although Leung Ka Fai was not present, the jury still awarded the Best Supporting Actor to the actor from Hong Kong.

Director Xie Jin went on stage to accept the award on behalf of Leung Ka Fai and also thanked the jury on his behalf.

Although Lam You-shing knew very well that Tony Leung Ka-fai's acting skills were worthy of the Best Supporting Actor award, he did not know whether the judging panel had specifically considered Tony Leung Ka-fai's identity as a Hong Kong actor.

Lin Youcheng didn't think much about this question, but turned to look at Pan Hong and Liu Xiaoqing beside him. Next was the announcement of the Best Actress.

It was obvious that Liu Xiaoqing was a little nervous and expectant.

She really wants to prove herself, and she also looks forward to the character she plays, Gu Xiaomeng, winning the Golden Rooster Award.

Liu Xiaoqing noticed Lin Youcheng's gaze and smiled.

"You played Gu Xiaomeng very well."

Liu Xiaoqing nodded. It was obvious that being recognized by the author Lin Youcheng was a great affirmation for her.

You have to know that the Gu Xiaomeng recommended by Lin Youcheng at the very beginning was not her. This made Liu Xiaoqing feel unwilling from the beginning and she was determined to play Gu Xiaomeng well.

Compared to Liu Xiaoqing's nervousness and anticipation, Pan Hong seemed calmer because she had already won a Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress for "Middle-Aged Man".

And to be honest, if it weren't for Lin Youcheng, the butterfly that fluttered, Pan Hong would have won three Golden Rooster Awards for Best Actress, and the fourth time she was given a Special Jury Award, which probably means that you are too awesome, and they won't give you the award anymore, and will leave the opportunity to others.

There are even rumors, not sure if they are true or not, that Pan Hong was not allowed to participate in one session, and then the jury unanimously decided to leave the Best Actress role vacant.

However, unfortunately, Pan Hong did not cooperate with the fifth-generation directors later. In addition, the domestic film market was not doing well, so she gradually retired from the film industry and turned to acting in TV dramas.

The person who was most excited about the announcement of the Best Actress was undoubtedly Liu Xiaoqing, because she was the winner of the Best Actress Award at the 7th Golden Rooster Awards.

Liu Xiaoqing was very excited as she finally received recognition from the Golden Rooster Awards.

Seeing Liu Xiaoqing excitedly going up on stage to receive the award, Pan Hong actually felt a little envious. She even wondered if her name would be read out after Liu Xiaoqing's name. After all, which actor wouldn't want to win an award if they were nominated?
However, it now seems that it will be very difficult for her to win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress for the second time.

Lin Youcheng noticed Pan Hong's subtle disappointment and said, "Don't worry, you will definitely get it again later." Pan Hong turned her head to look at Lin Youcheng, smiled and nodded, and said, "I hope so."

After that, the Best Actor and Best Director awards were both given to the film "Sun Zhongshan". I just don't know if the final Best Feature Film award will also go to "Sun Zhongshan".

Xie Jin is quite open-minded about winning awards. After all, he won the Best Director Award at the first Golden Rooster Awards in 1981 with "Legend of Tianyun Mountain".

As for personal awards, he is quite calm.

However, he also hopes that his film "The Sound of Wind" can receive more recognition.

Now "Sun Zhongshan" directed by Ding Yinnan has won eight awards, and "The Sound of the Wind" had also been highly favored to win awards. Now that it has won three awards, the only remaining award is the most important Best Feature Film Award.

The result was quite satisfactory. "The Sound of the Wind" and "Sun Zhongshan" jointly won the Best Feature Film Award at the 7th Golden Rooster Awards.

Although the crew of "The Sound of Wind" could not match "Sun Zhongshan" in winning nine awards, they were able to win four important awards, including Best Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor, Best Actress, and Best Feature Film, which are also quite eye-catching.

In particular, the box office performance of the movie "The Sound of Wind" is also quite good.

Liu Xiaoqing was extremely delighted and attached great importance to this award.

"I never thought that I would finally win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress!"

Xie Jin looked at Liu Xiaoqing's excitement, and glanced at Pan Hong beside her who didn't seem to care much, and couldn't help but say: "Even if you win the Best Actress award, you must continue to act seriously. Performance never ends."

Lin Youcheng smiled and said, "Yes, these two are both Golden Rooster Award winners. We can't keep staring at the Golden Rooster Award."

"There are higher film awards waiting for you!" Liu Xiaoqing asked when she heard what Lin Youcheng said, "What higher film award?"

As a winner of the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, Liu Xiaoqing has always wanted to win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress.

Lin Youcheng said: "Isn't there also a winner of the three major international film festivals in Europe?"

The winner of the three major film festivals?

After these words came out, even the strong-willed Liu Xiaoqing couldn't help but shake her head and said, "That's really hard to imagine."

Pan Hong's eyes flickered. Although she yearned for it, she didn't dare to think about such a thing.

The three major European international film festivals are far away from them, let alone the best actress of the three major film festivals.

Hearing the future Empress Wu Zetian, Queen Mother, say this, Lin Youcheng laughed and said, "Who can predict what will happen in the future?"

Not long after the 7th Golden Rooster Awards ceremony ended, an even bigger award came from the foreign film industry. Master Zhang won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival for his film "Red Sorghum".
