You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 589 ① Reach the top of the rich list ② Shortlisted for the Golden Horse ③ Ask for double votes!

The most popular female student in Nortel's grade 13 acting class right now is definitely Chen Yao.

Two months ago, the online drama "Wuxin Master" produced by Tang Dynasty became a hit. Although she was only the second female lead, her popularity was far greater than that of the first female lead, Jin Chen. She played the role of Yue Qiluo to life.

But when Meng Ziyi, who was in the same dormitory, returned to school, all her classmates gathered around her.

Although Xiao Meng only had a supporting role in the hit "Who Is He?", he participated in the Venice Film Festival and the Toronto Film Festival, and was second only to Jiang Peiyao among actresses.

Moreover, her Weibo certification has been added with a new profile of "Wang Quan's Assistant". That is someone who Director Quan can get along with day and night, so the students naturally rush to fawn over her.

Meng Ziyi: Not only do we get along day and night, but we also go in and out.

It's a pity that Director Quan still has to go home to be with his wife and children, otherwise he wouldn't have returned to school to live.

Now in Meng Ziyi's mind, she and these classmates are already in two different worlds. She is a person who has seen the peak, and she once let Director Wang Quan live below.

After telling his classmates about his experiences in Venice and Toronto, Chen Yao finally couldn't help but remind him: "Didn't you say you wanted to watch the Golden Rooster Awards Ceremony before? Are you ready to watch it?"

Meng Ziyi: "Oh, it's the Golden Rooster Award today, please turn on the TV."

"Okay, Sister Meng." Another roommate quickly turned on the TV in the dormitory.

They started complaining when they saw the best heroine.

"Nozhijima" is a 12-year-old film, and it has not been officially released at all, unless it can be seen at a film festival, so the audience has no way of talking about how it performed.

Next, there were four candidates for Best Actor, and two of them won. In addition to embarrassing the other two candidates, it also made Chen Kun look very embarrassed.

After Huang Xiaoming won the Golden Rooster Best Actor with "Partners", Chen Kun is already the only one among the four major students who has not won the Golden Rooster Best Actor. Moreover, Liu Ye also has the Golden Rooster Best Actor, and Deng Chao also has the Venice Best Actor. This also makes Chen Kun, a Buddhist, Kun started to get a little anxious.

If the double yolk best actor is not outrageous, then the best screenwriter and best director will all fall into the pocket of "Golden Age", which makes Yang Mi a little bit unbearable.

""Golden Age", a movie that bankrupted Xingmei and directly sold herself to Wanda, has a poor reputation, but it can win these two awards!" Yang Mi patted Liu Yifei's thigh angrily.

The three people are now stacked together, and the royal power has also been affected. He smiled and said: "The reputation is actually not bad, Douban has more than 7 points."

Yang Mi: "But "Return" scored nine points, and "I'm Not Wang Mao" also scored eight points. The tastes of the Golden Rooster Awards judges are really unpredictable."

Liu Yifei rubbed Wang Quan's leg and asked: "Then which one do you think the best film will be?"

Yang Mi snorted: "Let "The Golden Age" win. The judges of this year obviously want to get close to Director Xiangjiang."

Wang Quan: "Then I think it is better to get closer to foreign directors than to get closer to Xiangjiang directors. I choose "Wolf Totem"."

Liu Yifei: "Then I'll stick with director Yimou. I choose "Pan Jinlian"."

The answer was soon revealed. The winner of the Golden Rooster Award for Best Picture was "Wolf Totem", which is not unacceptable. After all, the reputation is not bad.

But ever since films such as "Return" and "I'm Not Wang Mao" were removed from the shortlist, the Golden Rooster Award has become further and further away from people's hearts.

What's more, this year there was another troublesome double-yolked egg incident, and several awards for "Golden Age" were also very disappointing.

Therefore, there are still more criticisms than affirmations on this Golden Rooster Awards online.

Netizens are also increasingly looking forward to next year's Directors' Association Awards, feeling that the results of that one can better balance the expectations of ordinary audiences and senior movie fans.

But before that there is the Golden Horse Award.

At a time when the Golden Rooster Awards were being criticized, the Golden Horse Awards happened to release the shortlist, which immediately attracted widespread attention and a lot of praise.

First of all, the best films are very hard.

The five parts are "Parasite", "Assassin Nie Yinniang", "Old Friends in Mountains and Rivers", "Walking in the Snow to Seek Plum Blossoms" and "I'm Not Pan Jinlian".

Looking at the quality, four of them are Cannes-certified masterpieces, and there is also a Hong Kong movie dark horse.

The nominees for Best Director are Wang Quan, Hou Hsiao-hsien, Zhang Yimou, Jia Zhangke, and Wanma Caidan.

Wanma Tseden is a Xizang writer and director. His work is "Talow".

The best actresses are Liu Yifei for "The Farewell", Yang Mi for "Get Out", Shu Qi for "Assassin Nie Yinniang", Fan Bingbing for "Gone Girl" and Carrie Lam for "100 Days Farewell".

Just the gimmick of Xian Mi and Yi Bing competing for Best Actress guarantees that the attention of this Golden Horse Awards will be unprecedented.

Although I haven't seen Yang Mi's "Get Out, Cancer King" yet, both Fan Bingbing and Liu Yifei almost gave the best performances in their careers this time, and the competition is still very fierce.

The best actor awards are Tony Leung Jiahui for "Parasite", Aaron Kwok for "Walking in the Snow", Feng Xiaogang for "Old Paoer", Li Hongqi for "Drunken Life", and Feng Yuanzheng for "The Tribulation of the Ming Dynasty".

The competition for the Golden Horse Awards was too fierce this time, and "The Tribulation of the Ming Dynasty" regrettably failed to be shortlisted for Best Picture and Best Director.

However, the film was shortlisted for seven awards: Best Actor, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Supporting Actor Chen Xiao, Best Art Design, Best Costume Design, and Best Original Film Music.

"Parasite" was nominated for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor (Li Ming), Best Supporting Actress (Fan Bingbing, Wen Yongshan), and Best New Actor (Huang Kaijie) , Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, Best Visual Effects, Best Art Design, Best Original Music for a Film, and Best Sound Effects.

A total of 13 projects were shortlisted and 14 nominations were made!

This nomination is the highest this year, even surpassing the previous "The Adventures of Li Xianji". The Golden Horse Awards seem to show their full sincerity.

After learning that she was shortlisted for Best Actress this year, Yang Mi was beaming when she went to work, and the promotion of "Get Out, Cancer King" was in full swing.

In order to take advantage of the popularity of the Golden Horse Awards, "Tumor King" is scheduled to be released in November. Although it is a cold season, with Yang Mi's box office appeal, there are no competitors, and it is easy to dominate the schedule.

Unlike the Lunar New Year stalls, which start to gather in large numbers starting from December, it’s better to avoid some.

But she was rather surprised, "Why is Fan Bingbing still shortlisted for Best Supporting Actress?"

That's right, "Parasite" applied for Best Supporting Actress to Fan Bingbing because she didn't have many roles, and the lead actress would be splitting votes with "Gone Girl", which was not conducive to her becoming the best actress.

Moreover, she and Wen Yongshan are both lucky to be shortlisted. The competition for female supporting roles this year is not very fierce.

Wang Quan explained to Yang Mi that it was actually difficult for him to do it. One of the highlights of the movie "Parasite" was the excellent performance of the actors.

The excellent performances of two seniors like Hui Yinghong and Bao Qijing were fully worthy of two Best Supporting Actress nominations. However, considering giving some opportunities to young actors, they all withdrew from the selection.

Zhou Ming also submitted an application for Best Newcomer at the beginning, but he had few roles and weak acting skills, so he was not shortlisted.

However, this year's Best Newcomer award is really impressive. In addition to Huang Kaijie, there are also Xin Zhilei from "I'm Not Pan Jinlian", Huang Yue from "Over the Spring", Chun Xia and Bai Zhi from "Blood in Search of Plum Blossoms".

"Then will you go to the Golden Horse?" Yang Mi asked him again, "Aren't you afraid of returning empty-handed this time?"

Wang Quan said seriously: "Every time I attend an awards ceremony, I am mentally prepared to leave empty-handed. What's more, this year is really not weak. I can understand if I don't win the award, but I still want to go."

He held Yang Mi's face in his hands and said, "Both you and Xixi are going. I will definitely go. I also want to see with my own eyes the scene where you sealed the deal."

Yang Mi happily hugged Wang Quan tightly. If Meng Ziyi wasn't still around, she would have done it.

Today is the weekend, and Xiaotian went to Xiaohongshu Company in Shanghai. This was her first time. Because Wang Quan also had a lot of work, she called Meng Ziyi to take over as an assistant.

Meng Ziyi thought that the assistant's main duty was to sleep with him, but who knew that there were really a lot of serious tasks today.

In order to prepare "Happy Journey", Wang Quan needs to meet with many literary consultants, historical consultants, and many artists and designers.

Meng Ziyi needed to record the conversation between Wang Quan and them, as well as the arrangements for whether they would cooperate afterwards.

She misses Xiaotian a little now.

However, Wang Quan still gave Xiao Meng a break in the evening so that she could have time to watch "囧 in Hong Kong" which she had been talking about for a long time.

Yesterday "囧" was officially released. This is Qiankun Pictures' top drama this year.

Although Lao Wang has delegated power to Xu Zheng, the copyright of the "囧" series is in the hands of Qiankun. Qiankun is the party with the greatest interests and has exerted the greatest strength in publicity and distribution.

Yesterday Friday, the first day it was released, it received a box office of 203 million. Xu Zheng used data to prove that he is still very strong after leaving Wang Baoqiang. The soul of the "囧" series is himself as a director.

Not to mention Baozuo, even if I put a dog next to me, the box office would not be bad.

Wang Quan went to Nazari to spend the night today. When I watched it at night, the box office of "囧" in a single day on Saturday was 251 million!

Although this result did not break the single-day box office record of "Ghost Blowing Lantern 3", the super high box office has demonstrated the potential of a 2 billion-level movie.

Everyone in the industry also sees that three 2 billion movies will be born this year.

The rising star Shen Tong has already exceeded 2 billion. As a sequel to "囧囧" which already exceeded 1 billion three years ago, the industry and the public are naturally optimistic about it, and there will be a National Day holiday in the future.

Xu Zheng and his wife Xiao Taohong have already started popping champagne halfway. This time he has a higher proportion of the film, and the profits will naturally be higher.

Even if the box office is only 2 billion, the producer will get 700 million, minus the cost of 100 million, there will still be 600 million. At least more than 100 million of the 600 million belongs to him!

Including director and actor fees, if there are any derivative income, maybe 200 million will be directly earned!

"It's developed, it's developed!" Xu Zheng was so excited that his bald head was sweating.

Although Xiao Taohong was also happy, she couldn't bear to see the bald head being so arrogant, so she poured cold water on her, "After all, you just work for others. No matter how high the box office is, what you get is only a fraction, unlike Zhang Ting, who is It’s really making a lot of money.”

Zhang Ting is the heroine in "Love Through Time". She and Xu Zheng have collaborated in many films and are very good friends, but this friend is now very close to his wife.

I heard that Zhang Ting and his wife did make a lot of money doing business in the mainland.

Xu Zheng was not happy when he heard this, "In business, there are losses and profits. How can it be better than when I am a director and have financial fame now, and my "囧" series almost never loses money, it is just a difference between making more and less."

Xiao Taohong added: "Zhang Ting's business won't be lost, it's a huge profit."

"Oh?" Xu Zheng was indeed curious.

"Listen to what I'm telling you..."

On Sunday, "囧" once again took in 223 million at the box office, and the box office in the first three days was nearly 700 million.

However, as the box office rose, the film's reputation began to plummet, mainly focusing on the male supporting actor Bao Er and the heroine Zhao Yanzi, as well as the clichéd plot and laughs.

Especially Bao Beier, Wang Baoqiang's replacement was scolded the most. Sometimes audience popularity is a very mysterious thing.

Soon the movie's Douban score will drop below 6, which is already almost failing!

Xu Zheng started to get a little anxious and angry. The industry's box office forecast for the movie also dropped from more than 2 billion to 2 billion, 1.9 billion, 1.8 billion, and now only about 1.6 billion is left.

Especially since the National Day is coming soon, the action-shooting and anti-drug blockbuster "Operation Mekong" is also released.

Qiankun also has a stake in this movie and is considered the third producer. The second producer is Golden Shield Film and Television.

"Who is He" was also co-produced with Jindun.

The film stars Zhang Hanyu and Zhu Yawen.

This kind of theme is not a hit theme, and the box office was not the opponent of "囧" at the beginning. The box office on the first day was only 39 million, and it was still a holiday.

Then the box office reached 61 million on October 1st, 66 million on the 2nd, 73 million on the 3rd, and 77 million on the 4th.

The National Day holiday has passed, but the movie is still on the decline, almost following "囧" all the way back.

It wasn't until October 6 that it reached the highest box office peak of 102 million!

Although it has just barely exceeded 100 million, this movie has already become a hit, with a box office of 1 billion is stable.

The leading actor Zhu Yawen, who had been suppressed by Wang Qianyuan before and had almost no sense of existence in "Rescue Mr. My Life", finally rose to prominence this time. The two-hero scene with Zhang Hanyu was very exciting, and his reputation as a walking hormone gradually spread.

Liu Yifei's best classmate, who has signed a contract with Li Bingbing's Hesong Media, has finally become popular.

In addition to boss Li Bingbing being happy, Wen Zhang was also very happy because Zhu Yawen was the second male lead in his new film.

Wang Qiankun still loves his godson. He previously invested in a TV series directed by Wen Zhang, and this time he gave him a chance to make a movie.

But there is a condition: Huang Hai should be allowed to play the leading role.

It's like letting the two brothers come back together.

Wen Zhang didn't say anything. Anyway, he didn't want to act this time, he just wanted to direct. The movie was called "Lu Yao Knows Ma Li", with Huang Hai playing Lu Yao and Xiao Song Jia playing Ma Li.

Wang Qiankun also took a fancy to director Lin Chaoxian's ability, so he quickly came to his door and prepared to cooperate with him with projects and investments.

Lam Chao-hsien is not a tyrannical director, he is a free man. Mr. Kun is sincere and the two hit it off immediately. Although there is no script, the evacuation of overseas Chinese from Yemen is indeed worth filming.

Lao Wang had just returned to the office, but before he could sit still, he heard Han Sanping say that his son had become the richest man in the mainland~
