    "Okay, okay, everyone, please applaud!" Zeng Zhiwei clapped his hands and shouted. Others may suspect that he is here to help Wang Zijun promote his new song, but he himself understands very well that Wang Zijun is really talented.

    ¡°Perhaps Wang Zijun is not a person who improvises, but only has a lot of stock in his stomach. If it were another singer who had written such a good song, he would have eagerly taken it out and sold it. How could he hide it and wait for others to test it?

    There was thunderous applause in the awards hall. Not to mention that this was indeed a good song, even if Wang Zijun sang "Two Tigers", they would have clapped.  As an iconic figure in Chinese-language films, Wang Zijun's worldwide influence has brought many practical benefits to filmmakers like them. At least now it is much easier to sell Chinese-language films to Japan.

    Zeng Zhiwei returned to the stage and praised Wang Zijun again, while Zhang Xiaoyan laughed and agreed.  It was not Zeng Zhiwei who came up with the problem for Wang Zijun. The two had already talked about it before they took the stage to host. It was Zhang Xiaoyan who came up with the idea first.

    After Wang Zijun finished praising Wang Zijun, Zhang Xiaoyan said: "Before awarding the awards, I first want to tell you some good news. The Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards are about to undergo reform. From next year, the films selected for the Golden Horse Awards will not be limited to Chinese-language films, as long as they are produced from  Films from Asian and Pacific countries are all eligible to be selected. Here, on behalf of the Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee, I sincerely invite filmmakers from various Asian and Pacific countries to bring their own masterpieces to participate in next year¡¯s Golden Horse Film Festival"

    A few influential filmmakers like Wang Zijun naturally knew about the news, but other directors, actors, reporters and producers heard about it for the first time, and the awards hall was buzzing with excitement.

    ?For ordinary directors and actors.  This is not a good thing. If their works want to win awards in the future, they will have to compete with works from the entire Asia-Pacific region, and the chance of winning the trophy will be much smaller.

    It¡¯s not just about trophies and honors, it also means box office revenue.  Take Hong Kong movies as an example.  If a Hong Kong literary film is not nominated for the Golden Horse Awards, it will rarely be sold at a high price in Taiwan.  But once it is nominated or even wins, there will definitely be countless Taiwanese film producers rushing to buy the film for screening.

    Just when everyone had mixed reactions to the news, the first trophy of this Golden Horse Awards was produced.

    The Grand Prize for Best Animated Film.  It was won by Dream World Animation Company's "Xi Yang Yang Zhi Niang Tian". Producer Li Feimeng dragged Gu Long to the stage to receive the award.

    Yes, Gu Long is the screenwriter of this cartoon!

    "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" was created by Wang Zijun after the first dozens of episodes.  In the following ten years, several batches of creators have been changed, and thousands of episodes have been produced. It is known as "the longest-lived cartoon".  Someone even joked: "My son was only eight years old when he watched "Xi Yangyang". Now my grandson is about to be born, and Xi Yangyang is still studying in Yangcun."

    Different from the initial applause when it first came out, some people are unhappy because "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is smelly and long. Some people think that the content of this cartoon is getting rougher. Anyway, now every time "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" releases a new episode, it will  Being sprayed wildly.

    ???????????????????????????????? But while it was being criticized, it was also the cartoon that has long dominated the ratings championship in Hong Kong and Taiwan.  Even "Saints" and "Transformers" can't beat it.  Not only that, in Southeast Asia and South Korea, "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is also a favorite of many children, and even has some influence in Japan.

    This situation makes anime fans who like "Saint Seiya" and "Transformers" feel unreasonable.  I think it is impossible for such a naive cartoon to achieve such results. If it is not for the TV station's data being falsified, it is because the audience watching "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is mentally retarded!

    In addition to animated series, "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" began producing New Year films four years ago.  Because families accompany their children to the theater, and in many cases even several generations of the whole family, each movie can earn tens of millions of Taiwan dollars at the box office.  This award-winning "Ji Yang Zhi Niu Qi Tian" is the same as the previous film "Xi Yang Yang Zhi Jade Mouse Lin Feng".  It has grossed more than NT$40 million at the box office for two consecutive years, beating many of the company's masterpieces of the same period.

    Fortunately, Li Feimeng came on stage to receive the award. Gu Long, a master of martial arts, was also brought up, and he also received the cartoon trophy, which immediately caused a burst of laughter from the people below, diluting the weird atmosphere caused by Zhang Xiaoyan's announcement of the reform of the Golden Horse Awards.  Quite a few.

    Li Feimeng said: "Why did I bring Gu Long up today? This is because because of his joining in the creation, the story and interest of "Bullshit" have been greatly improved. And Yaohua is still there  It incorporated martial arts elements and discussed the philosophy of human nature, and thus won the Animated Feature Award at this year's Annecy International Animated Film Festival in France, which is the only honor for Chinese animated films!"

    ¡°It was only more than two months ago that ¡°Xi Yang Yang Zhi Ni Ni¡± won the award in France, and there were also reports in Hong Kong and Taiwan at that time.  However??If Feimeng hadn't said anything, at least half of the people present today would have never heard of it.

    Even if Li Feimeng says it now, most people here don't know what kind of honor this is - who will pay attention to cartoons if it doesn't matter?

    Awards guest Qiu Chengguo suddenly interjected and said: ""The Joy of Joy" winning the Animation Feature Film Award at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival is equivalent to the directors' works winning the Oscar for Best Picture in Hollywood."

    This explanation is clear.

    The filmmakers were stunned for a moment, then quickly realized and burst into applause.

    Gu Long still looks that slovenly. Even when he attends an award ceremony, he is dressed like a laborer.  He took the microphone unhurriedly and said with a smile: "I am not as powerful as Brother Niu (nickname of Li Feimeng). Everyone knows that this cartoon was created by Xiao Wang. The people behind us are just  It's just a dog's tail. As for the reason why I won the award this time, it is also the credit of Brother Niu. Isn't the name of the movie called "The Joyful Ox"? This cow is the prototype of Brother Niu, and many plots are also adapted from Brother Niu's experience.  "Yes, so what I do is a moving job. By the way, one last thing," Gu Long pointed in the direction of Wang Zijun and said, "Xiao Wang, don't sneak away from the awards banquet later. If you don't want to have a drink with me, be careful with me.  I will chase you to your home! If your time is wasted then, your brothers and sisters will not be happy."

    "Hahaha" Some people in the audience laughed, and some covered their mouths and couldn't help laughing.  Everyone knew that Gu Long was a heavy drinker, but he didn't expect that he would invite drinks during his speech at the award ceremony, and he would even involve several of Wang Zijun's wives in his speech.

    It is a well-known fact that Wang Zijun has many beauties in his family and enjoys all kinds of beauty.  But this is a moral taboo after all, and no one dares to joke about it in public.

    Wang Zijun could only smile bitterly in response to the fact that Gu Long spoke without going through his brain.

    ? Next are various documentary and technical awards.  The Best Original Music Nomination for "The Three Heroines of the East" failed to materialize, but the Best Costume Design went to Hong Xiaoqiao.

    Another thing worth Wang Zijun¡¯s attention is that the best art design was won by Wang Tong¡¯s ¡°Horse into the Forest¡±.  Wang Tong is the director of this film.  It¡¯s also about the film¡¯s art. The plot of the film is average, but the scenes and images are excellent.

    What caught Wang Zijun¡¯s attention was not the film ¡°Ride into the Woods¡± but Wang Tong as a person.  In a parallel space, if Wang Zijun were asked to rank Taiwanese directors, Wang Tong would definitely be in the top five. The "Scarecrow" that will be filmed next year is a masterpiece.  It's a pity that this excellent director is not in Wang Pictures, but is a treasure of China Film Company, and he can't even poach him.

    This year¡¯s Golden Horse Awards newly established the Best Film Special Effects Award.  Wang's Pictures' "et" is competing fiercely with China Film Company's "Robots" and First Pictures' "Future Soldiers."

    The latter two films were both produced due to the box office stimulation of Wang Zijun's "et". Both films were launched under the banner of science fiction blockbusters. Taking advantage of the science fiction craze set off by "et", they made money for China Film Company and First Pictures.  Got a lot of money.

    But in Wang Zijun¡¯s view, the two works are neither fish nor fowl.  It can be called a weird thing among science fiction movies.

    The screenwriter of "Robots" is Zhang Yongxiang, continuing his consistent realistic literary style. This is a love ethics film wrapped in science fiction; and what about First Pictures' "Future Vanguard"?  It¡¯s just about putting action actors in futuristic costumes on board, and then adding movie special effects.  If the futuristic elements were removed, this would be nothing more than a cheating kung fu movie.

    The box office was high enough to shut up Wang Zijun. The box office of "Robot" in Taiwan was NT$240 million.  The box office of "Future Vanguard" in Taiwan was NT$270 million.

    This is just like when the blockbuster craze just started in mainland China. Regardless of the quality of the film, as long as it is under the banner of blockbuster, you can make a lot of money.  It seems that the audience does not go there for the content of the movie, but for the title of blockbuster movie.

    The huge box-office profits of two "sci-fi" blockbusters have made some directors who were hesitant about making blockbusters finally make up their mind to have at least five blockbusters with an investment of more than NT$50 million unveiled in this year's Lunar New Year period.

    Taiwan¡¯s economy is currently in a golden age. Nothing else. Taiwanese businessmen have a lot of money and nowhere to invest. When they see how much they can make money by making blockbusters, one is more ruthless than the other and they are more willing to invest.

    "The winners of this year's Best Movie Special Effects are "et" Garcia Giles, Rocky Sirk, Mandy Tate, and Sun Kai!"

    Three foreigners and a Chinese man walked up to the stage to receive the award. Sun Kai was the leader of the special effects team of "ET". To be honest, he was the leader of the three foreigners.

    ¡°The special effects personnel hired by China Film Company and First Pictures for their two sci-fi films happened to be Sun Kai and his subordinates.??.  They have worked at Industrial Light and Magic, and Sun Kai himself has even participated in the special effects production of "Titanic" and "Star Wars 3". He is considered to be one of the best special effects artists in Taiwan.

    "Thank you Wang, the process of making et is a very pleasant memory, I feel like I am giving birth to my own child" Garcia Giles spoke on behalf of the winners, standing on the Asian podium to let him  Quite interesting.

    The officials of the Golden Horse Awards are also very happy. In their view, the more foreigners who appear at the Golden Horse Awards, the more international the Golden Horse Awards are, proving that its influence is greater.

    "et" has just begun to show off its power. Next, the best original music, best photography, best editing, best original screenplay, best director, and best feature film were all won by "et".

    No one questions the secret operation of the organizing committee, because the excellence of "et" is there.  What's more, Wang Zijun's "Titanic" is even crazier than this. The Oscar, which is elusive for Asian filmmakers, Wang Zijun won 12 statuettes for "Titanic". What are these seven Golden Horse trophies?

    The most dramatic aspect of this Golden Horse Awards.  It's not that "ET" won seven Golden Horse trophies, but it was competing for the Best New Actor and Best Actor awards.

    Because Anthony Wong, Lizzie, Yang Ziqiong, and Ira Claudia, who were nominated for Best New Actor, are all from "The East Asian Heroes"; and Chow Yun-fat and Man Tsz-leung, who were nominated for Best Actor, are also from the same place.  In the movie "Waiting for Dawn".

    This is completely the rhythm of one's own people beating their own people

    Needless to say, the Best Actor award went to Chow Yun-fat, but the winner of the Best New Actor award surprised everyone. Lizzie, the three popular actresses, were not awarded the award. Instead, it was Wong Chiu Sang-teng who played the role of a minor villain.  On the podium.

    "Every trophy has its own owner."  When everyone thought the awards ceremony was over, Zhang Xiaoyan and Eric Tsang returned to the stage and said, "Now we will present two special awards!"

    Zeng Zhiwei opened the envelope and said: "The first one to be awarded is the Outstanding Foreign Actor Award! The winner - Miss Laura Fanna."

    Zhang Xiaoyan read the award speech affectionately: "It has been exactly ten years since Miss Laura Fangna came to Taiwan to film in 1975. In these ten years, Laura has appeared in a total of 36 TV series, 88 movies, and shot commercials.  22 films. Acted as the heroine of music videos 5 times Ms. Laura Fana is by far the foreign actor who has made the most films in Taiwan and has been in the industry for the longest time. On the tenth anniversary of her debut, the Golden Horse Award Organizing Committee specially awarded  The Outstanding Foreign Actor Award is intended to recognize and thank Miss Laura for her contribution to Chinese-language films."

    ¡°Please¡ªLaura Fanna!¡±

    Wearing a floor-length dress, Laura Fanna walked onto the podium amidst applause. At this time, she was only in her twenties.  Compared with ten years ago, she is more plump and attractive, and she does not have the appearance of gaining weight after middle age. This is the most beautiful and attractive time.

    Laura Fangna received the trophy from Bai Muyang, the vice chairman of the Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee. Before she said her acceptance speech, she glanced at Wang Zijun below with undisguised resentment.

    Wang Zijun only brought two actresses from the West.  Laura Fana and Demi Moore.  Demi Moore returned to Hollywood three years ago, but Laura Fana has stayed in Hong Kong and Taiwan to take roles. Now she has become a well-known actress in Asia.

    Not only that, Laura Fanna seems to be preparing to settle down in Taiwan and has brought her mother and younger brother to Taiwan.  My younger brother even went directly to Wang's Pictures.

    When she was in Spain, Laura Fangna had some interest in Wang Zijun. It was not until the filming of "Love in Paradise" that the relationship developed to an ambiguous level. Unfortunately, Wang Zijun later ignored her.

    In the eyes of outsiders, Laura Fanna is a workaholic.  In ten years, he made 36 TV series and 88 movies. Although some of them were just guest appearances, he was really crazy and dedicated.  In addition to attending events, appearing on variety shows, filming commercials, etc., the schedule is already full. Not to mention falling in love, there is not even enough time to sleep.

    Because she was too busy, after Wang Zijun entered Laura Fang Na's heart, no other man had the chance to crowd out Wang Zijun's position.

    "Thank you to the Golden Horse Awards organizing committee and Wang's Pictures," Laura Fangna said in fluent Mandarin. "Of course, I also want to thank my boss Wang Zijun. This is my second hometown and I have applied to the authorities.  I have immigrated. Fortunately, the application has not been approved yet, otherwise this award would have nothing to do with me.¡±

    "Haha" There was a chuckle from below.  But there are more people who appreciate Laura Fanna. After all, people from Hong Kong and Taiwan are now moving to Europe and the United States. Laura Fanna, a Spaniard, has immigrated to Taiwan. This is quite proud to say.

    After Laura Fangna went down, Zhang Xiaoyan continued: "The second special award tonight is for Outstanding Filmmaker - Wang Zijun! Please invite the chairman of the Golden Horse Awards Organizing CommitteeMr. Mingji took the stage to present awards to the winners.  "

    " He left his signature and footprints on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He ushered in a new era of Chinese-language films. He is the most familiar Chinese star to movie fans around the world. He created an unprecedented film with "Titanic".  Film records broken by people"

    Wang Zijun walked up to the stage, took the trophy from Ming Ji, and said indifferently like Zeng Zhiwei who was reciting the award speech: "Aren't these things awarded to gray-haired old men? The award speech just now sounded so right to me.  Summary of my life? I said, man, you are not cursing me to die soon, are you? Fortunately, the award is not a lifetime achievement award"

    "Hahaha" The whole audience burst into laughter.

    Zeng Zhiwei quickly smiled and waved his hands and said: "Master Jun, please don't accuse me wrongly. This award speech was given to me by the organizing committee, so I will read it according to it. I want to curse you to be a member of the organizing committee."

    Wang Zijun raised the trophy, waved towards the judges, and said, "Thank you, I won't do it next time!"

    "Puch" Many people burst out laughing. It was the first time they saw someone receiving an award and they told the judges that it was no exception.

    Wang Zijun continued: "There are many outstanding filmmakers in the Chinese-language film industry. I am here to take the lead on their behalf. I also hope that more outstanding film workers will emerge in the future, so that our Chinese-language films will become more prosperous and break out of Asia.  world!"

    Amidst warm applause, Wang Zijun walked down the podium and passed by Laura Fangna. Laura stood up and said: "Congratulations, Wang."

    "Thank you!" When Wang Zijun saw her open her arms, he generously gave her a hug. Unexpectedly, Laura Fangna took the opportunity to kiss him on the cheek.

    Before Wang Zijun could speak, Gu Long had already ran over, grabbed his wrist and pulled him towards the banquet hall: "Come on, I haven't had a drink with you for half a year."

    I worked on the manuscript at the company until eleven o'clock in the evening. Fortunately, I can rest tomorrow and coded a chapter overnight.

    I want to resign after this month.  (To be continued)
