Chapter 193 Ip Man and Chen Zhen.

Although the Golden Horse, Golden Statue, and Golden Rooster are collectively known as the three authoritative awards for Chinese-language films, in general, the Golden Horse Award is still the most valuable among the three awards.

The Golden Horse Awards over the years have been the prosperity of the Chinese-language film industry, and this year's Golden Horse Awards is no exception. Since the announcement of the nomination list, all the actors and directors on the list have gained a lot of enthusiasm.

The biggest winner on this year's Golden Horse Award nomination list is "Like a Dream", which won nine nominations in one fell swoop, including three nominations for Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Actress. Luo Zhuoyao also became a hot female director with this film.

Mainland actress Yuan Quan was also nominated for the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress for the first time for her outstanding performance in "Like a Dream".

Not only that, "Bullfighting" also received seven nominations, and "The Wind" received six nominations. This year's Golden Horse Awards were almost won by mainland films and mainland actors. This also indicates that mainland films are gradually becoming the mainstream of Chinese-language films.

"Sister, don't be so nervous, it's not the day of the lottery yet." Li Xue comforted.

Li Bingbing grabbed a handful of hair: "How can you not be nervous? That's the Golden Horse Award, and this is the closest I've been to the Golden Horse Award."

"Sister, don't be disturbed by the outside media. Being nominated is enough to raise your popularity to a higher level. If you worry about gains and losses, you will only make others laugh." Li Xue shook her head secretly. Li Bingbing was shortlisted for the Golden Horse Award for the first time, and with her Competing for the crown of Best Actress together are recognized capable actors like Yuan Quan and Zhou Xun. Most of the media believe that she is destined to just accompany her.

"I know, but." Li Bingbing actually understands the gap between her and Zhou Xun and Yuan Quan. However, "The Wind" has been her best performance in so many years. After getting the actress, I am afraid that there will be no chance in the future.

"Don't be an embarrassment. You have to remember that you must control your emotions. When you are interviewed by the media, you must be humble, so that you can remain invincible." Li Xue persuaded.

"Oh..." Li Bingbing was not reconciled.

On November 11th, the Golden Horse Awards were held in Taiwan Province as scheduled. On this day, the media from Hong Kong, Taiwan Province, and the Mainland, Taiwan and Taiwan gathered together. Many stars and famous directors who did not show their faces also attended in costumes. The red carpet was even more star-studded .

After announcing some less important awards in the early stage, finally ushered in the first award, Best Supporting Actor.

"Wang Xueqi won the Best Supporting Actor, [Mei Lanfang]"

Wang Xueqi, who won the award, acted quite calmly, but Chen Kai who was on the side seemed more excited than the other party, but it was no wonder that [Mei Lanfang] failed at the box office, and Chen Kai argued: This is a literary film, you can't measure it by the box office of a commercial film this video.

However, in fact [Mei Lanfang] did not have any outstanding results in the major awards. Now that he won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actor, it is a fig leaf for Brother Chen Kai.

When Li Bingbing saw Wang Xueqi on stage to accept the award, he smiled a bit reluctantly. According to the rules of awarding, it will be the best actress' turn soon.

"Next, the award is for Best Actor, please see the nominations."

There are only four nominations for the Golden Horse Awards, that is, as long as they are nominated, there is a 25% chance of winning the award. The four nominated actors all held their breath and stared at the awarding platform.

"The one who finally won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor was Zha Zhahui [The Witness]"

Before the words fell, Zha Zhahui almost jumped up. He has acted for so many years, and his best achievement before was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in the Academy Award, and this "Witness" not only won him the Golden Award in April this year. The award for Best Actor in a Leading Role even allowed him to win the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor today. That is to say, a film with double best actor, such an achievement, he never dared to imagine before.

However, just as Zha Zhahui was about to go on stage to receive the award, the host said, "Wait, there's more."

"Huang Bo【Bullfighting】"

For a while, the entire venue was silent, and after almost a minute, the venue began to make noise.

"Damn it, double yolk egg?"

"This, can't it? The Golden Horse Awards also have double yolk eggs?"

That's right, this is the first time in the history of the Golden Horse Awards that the best actor is awarded to two actors at the same time.

"Brother Bo, you have won the award, actor."

"Quick, go!"

Huang Bo was in a dazed state. He didn't walk to the podium until his friends pushed him. He was like a puppet mechanically accepting the trophy that symbolizes the actor.

After Zha Zhahui finished his acceptance speech, he gave the stage to Huang Bo. Only then did Huang Bo come to his senses, looking at the dark crowd in the audience and the flashing cameras of the reporters.

"Is this the legendary 'Actor of the Movies'? When I was admitted to the film academy, some people said, 'Now the enrollment requirements of the film academy are too loose.' After talking for a long time, they asked me, 'Are you their manager', and a senior once said to me, 'Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, men are afraid of choosing the wrong job'. Today, it seems that I chose the right one." Huang Boqiang After holding back the words, I still couldn't hold back in the end. Years of persistence and grievances all turned into tears at this moment, and the tears fell on the spot.

After the actor Hualuo Zhahui and Huang Bo, some insignificant awards were announced, followed by the announcement of Best Actress.

Li Bingbing could still force a smile on the surface, but in fact the corners of her skirt were almost crushed by her, especially when the award presenters came on stage, every step they took seemed to be stepping on her heart.

"The winner of the Best Actress is [Wind Sound]. Li Bingbing."

At the scene, when the award presenters read "The Wind", more than half of them turned their attention to Zhou Xun, thinking that she would win another actress crown, so when Li Bingbing's name was read out, many people were shocked. The expressions are a little weird.

But the moment Li Bingbing heard his name, he couldn't help it anymore, and covered his mouth excitedly, tears were already rolling in his eyes.

"Congratulations." Gao Qunshu congratulated.

The Golden Horse Awards came to an end soon. Although [Feng Sheng] only won one award, this award undoubtedly brought the most topicality, even higher than Zha Zhahui and Huang Bo's double yolk eggs.

Because, compared with Zhou Xun, Li Bingbing's acting skills in "The Wind" are actually slightly inferior, but the trophy after the film was awarded to Li Bingbing.

Zhou Xun's fans quit immediately, and some media expressed their incomprehension. In most people's eyes, even if another double-yolk egg was born in the Golden Horse Awards, it is not unacceptable. After all, Zhou Xun was in "The Wind" The performance deserves a queen affirmation.

Although Gao Qunshu did not win awards such as best director and best film, but because Li Bingbing won the best actress, he became the target of many actresses from both sides of the strait and three places eager to cooperate.

Mainland, Foshan.

Zhou Xing was eating with Huang Baiming, but judging from the atmosphere on the table, this dinner was not simple.

[Ip Man] The domestic box office exceeded 2 million, which gave Huang Baiming a taste of the sweetness. He has been preparing for the script of [Ip Man [-]] since [Ip Man].

However, what Huang Baiming didn't expect was that his offer of 500 million yuan was rejected by Zhou Xing.

At first, Huang Baiming thought that Zhou Xing felt that the salary was too little, so he gritted his teeth and added another 500 million. The salary reached a terrifying 5000 million, but Zhou Xing still did not agree.

Huang Baiming was very flustered about this, and even discussed with Ye Weixin whether he could be replaced by someone else, but the answer he got was that no one could replace Zhou Xing.

[Ip Man] The reason why this film can get such a high salary is that Zhou Xing, as the leading actor, has established the image of Ip Man. If he changes people rashly, I am afraid this series will be scrapped.

"Ah Xing, is there any misunderstanding between us? Or if you are dissatisfied with the salary, you can discuss it." Huang Baiming said with a smile.

Zhou Xing smiled approvingly: "Huang Sheng, in fact, the salary of 5000 million yuan is already top-notch in the entire Chinese film industry."

Huang Baiming nodded and waited for the next article.

"However, Huang Sheng, I prefer the [Ip Man 1] cooperation model to the cooperation model of getting a high salary." Zhou Xing didn't go around in circles either.

"You mean, convert the film salary into the investment?" Huang Baiming frowned, he didn't like this cooperation model, [Ip Man 1] was just an experiment, so he only invested 8000 million, and Zhou Xing got the film salary He is naturally willing to gamble with him, but this time is different from the past.

[Ip Man] The series has already opened up. [Ip Man 2] As long as the original cast is guaranteed, it will definitely make money, so he would rather pay Zhou Xing a sky-high salary of 5000 million yuan than give up the fat that he has been mouthing. people.

Zhou Xing said without hesitation: "Huang Sheng, you and I both understand that whether [Ip Man 2] can be a big hit at the box office depends on whether the original cast is good or not. Since [Ip Man 1], everyone's salary has been greatly reduced. Rising, except for me, the salaries of the other actors should be around 2000 million. Adding my 5000 million, the film salary alone will be 7000 million. That is to say, [Ip Man 2] requires at least [-] million investment to guarantee it. Video quality."

"With all due respect, with an investment of [-] million yuan, at least [-] million box office will be needed to pay back. Huang Sheng, isn't it too risky to do so?"

Huang Baiming frowned slightly. He actually invested 2 million in [Ip Man 1.5], but he was a little flustered by what Zhou Xing said. If he really gave Zhou Xing 5000 million, the remaining investment would really be enough to support [ Ip Ask 2] the quality?

The biggest fear of the series is that the quality of a certain film will drop sharply, which will affect the popularity of the entire series.

"Huang Sheng, in terms of remuneration, I can offer 4000 million yuan, 1000 million yuan in cash, and 3000 million yuan into the investment, sharing risks and profits, isn't it better?" Zhou Xingdao.

Huang Baiming was thinking in his heart. He could see that Zhou Xing was determined to share the pie. If he refused, if he resigned from acting as Ip Man, the series of movies that had finally become popular might be over. His initial investment It was in vain.

At the same time, as Zhou Xing said, the salary is converted into the investment, and everyone takes risks together. Zhou Xing will definitely work harder for his own interests. The box office lost, isn't he the one who suffers?

"Okay, then it's a deal." Huang Baiming weighed the pros and cons, and finally agreed to Zhou Xing's plan.

"However, there is one thing. I hope to sign at least three film contracts with Mr. Zhou." Huang Baiming was afraid that Zhou Xing would do something wrong again.

But Zhou Xing shook his head and said, "Huang Sheng, you've made a good plan, don't you? My salary should not have reached the highest point yet. Don't forget that I'm only in my early thirties, and it's time for me to play."

Huang Baiming was speechless. Indeed, Zhou Xing's most enviable thing was not his kung fu, but his age. Li Lianjie and Cheng Long were both old and couldn't move anymore. Their salaries were basically fixed. It will go down, but it won't go up, but Zhou Xing still has countless possibilities.

"In this way, we can pay according to the market as we go, but the converted investment can't be more." Huang Baiming said firmly.

Zhou Xing still shook his head: "I invested real money in the converted investment, and your investment will go up when the time comes. I'm afraid I won't even be able to drink soup with this little investment?"

Huang Baiming secretly scolded this little fox, thinking that he is indeed a film and television company, and he knows the way of it so well.

"How about this, in the future you can add 15% of your investment, how about it?"

"How about 20%?"

"not so good."

Well, Zhou Xing knew that this was already Huang Baiming's bottom line, so he no longer struggled: "Okay, then wish us a happy cooperation?"

"Happy cooperation." Up to now, Huang Baiming can only admit it.

Soon, Dongfang Film and Television held a signing press conference and announced that it had signed three film contracts with Zhou Xing. The media reported wildly for a while, and Dongfang Film and Television's share price in Xiangjiang rose by 10% that day, which shows that the market recognizes this cooperation. , It can also be seen from the side that the market recognizes Zhou Xing.

Similarly, for audiences who like kung fu movies, this is undoubtedly an excellent thing. There has been news that [Ip Man 2] has been in preparation before, but the candidate for the protagonist Ip Man has never been confirmed. Many viewers are still worried that Zhou Xing will not Will continue to play Ip Man, this signing press conference can be regarded as a reassurance for them.

"Hit the street!" Zhen Bullet threw the remote control in his hand far away, and with his strength, the remote control directly hit the wall and fell to pieces.

For Zhou Xing, apart from hatred, Zhen Zijin also has a deep sense of despair. He is no longer young. He is already 46 years old, and his body functions are already in a state of degeneration, while Zhou Xing is only in his early thirties. The best age for a star.

"Hey, Brother Qiang, I'll take the [Jing Wu Feng Yun·Chen Zhen] you mentioned."

Hanging up the phone, Zhen Bullet sighed. In fact, it is very risky to accept this movie. The role of Chen Zhen has been played by Bruce Lee and Li Lianjie. Their versions are too classic.

Li Lianjie's version, in particular, has left a strong mark in the entire history of Chinese kung fu movies. The most important thing is that Li Lianjie was acted by Billy Zhou, but he didn't.
