    The nominees for Best Actress at the 12th Academy Awards are Maggie Cheung for "Ruan Lingyu", Qiu Shuzhen for "The Red Fruit", Brigitte Lin for "Swordsman II: The Undefeated", Brigitte Lin for "Twins", Maggie Cheung for "The New Year"  "Longmen Inn" and "The Death Judge" by Mei Yanfang.  Qiu Shuzhen will not say it. As a newcomer who has just debuted, although her appearance is excellent, the Golden Cup for Best Actress, which symbolizes the highest honor in the Chinese-speaking world, is not given based on looks. Otherwise, there are many Hong Kong female artists who are more beautiful than her.  .  Moreover, her award-winning work "Red Fruit Lamb" is also a movie with a strong romantic color.  Fatty Wang obviously had never thought about it winning an award before. This alone doomed Qiu Shuzhen's hope of winning the first Best Actress Gold Cup in her life with it.  In terms of strength and status, Mei Yanfang is not inferior to this year's favorites Maggie Cheung and Brigitte Lin. Although her acting skills may be slightly lacking, the difference is not huge. However, she was involved in the "Huang Langwei incident" that shocked Hong Kong and Taiwan last year.  'Zhong's reputation was severely damaged, and even now there are still quite a few tabloids that can read stories about her and Huang Langwei's grudges and gossips from time to time.  Unfortunately, although the Hong Kong Film Awards are not as fond of saints as some of the later mainland awards, if the quality of the nominee is lacking, it is difficult for many judges to finally cast their votes for her.  And just by looking at the nominations, you will know that Maggie Cheung and Brigitte Lin, who have been nominated for two movies each, will be the most powerful contenders for the Best Actress Gold Cup at this year's Academy Awards.  Zhou Huimin also remembered that he was one of the hundreds of behind-the-scenes judges for this year's Academy Awards. Out of curiosity, she turned her head and leaned into his ear and asked, "Husband, who do you think can get this gold cup?" "I don't know!"  Lin Xiaozhi answered very simply.  Maggie Cheung and Brigitte Lin are both Hong Kong and Taiwan actresses he admires the most. The former has become internationally famous at a young age, while the latter has had continuous film appointments since her debut. After more than ten years of honing her acting skills, she has become extraordinary.  Although he knew that the Best Actress Gold Cup in history was won by Maggie Cheung, but after the scene where Liu Qingyun unexpectedly won the championship, Lin Xiaozhi was not sure.  So after thinking about it, he lowered his voice and said: "I voted for Brigitte Lin, but as of now, Maggie Cheung has a higher chance of winning." His explanation was not without reason. Brigitte Lin won the championship in the past two years.  The Golden Horse Award for Best Actress is the Golden Horse Best Actress.  Even though the Academy Awards appeared later than the Golden Horse Awards, the situation of coming from behind and some nasty disputes between the two major awards in the early years about who was more professional made it difficult for actors who were promising at the Golden Horse Awards to win at the Academy Awards.  .  And although Maggie Cheung is younger than Brigitte Lin, her semi-documentary film "Ruan Lingyu" was shortlisted for the Golden Bear Award at the 42nd Berlin International Film Festival last year. She also won the Best Actress at the Berlin International Film Festival for this film.  An honor.  As one of the three most famous film festivals in Europe, the Berlin International Film Festival has a wide range of influence around the world. Maggie Cheung's trophy is naturally very valuable, and it will also influence some Academy Award judges.  Even if there is no longer a scene in history where she was almost unanimously nominated for the Best Actress at the 12th Academy Awards, I believe that the vast majority of the judges will favor her who has just become internationally famous.  While a few people were communicating in low voices, the award nominations were already being played on the large screens behind the rostrum, and every time someone appeared, there would be a burst of applause from the audience.  "Next, I will announce that the winner of this year's Academy Awards for Best Actress is" John Woo lowered his head and tore open the envelope and slowly took out the award paper. After taking a look, he read loudly with a smile on his face: "Maggie Cheung's "  Ruan Lingyu!¡± The venue immediately burst into thunderous applause, and Lin Xiaozhi followed suit calmly.  He does not deny that Maggie Cheung's performance in "Ruan Lingyu" is very brilliant. It can be said that she brought the actress of the Republic of China to life, so she is well-deserved to win the Golden Cup of Best Actress.  It's just that Lin Xiaozhi's current status means that he can't have much affection for art films, because most of these films have great reputations but are not popular, and they can win awards but make no money. For him, the director of the largest film company in Hong Kong.  For the boss, the importance is far lower than the commercial movies that can continuously improve the company's profits and strength.  Not to mention that Maggie Cheung, who had just experienced the Berlin Film Festival last year, appeared on the stage with a relaxed expression and calmly delivered her acceptance speech.  The announcement of the Best Actress Golden Cup was naturally another climax.  The subsequent minor awards were all uneventful. It was also expected that Ti Lung lost the battle for "Best Supporting Actor" to Liao Qizhi's "Cage Man".  Although the super killer Mr.  - "Cage Man" made TVB veteran Liao Qizhi, who has been developing on the small screen, win this year's "Best Supporting Actor".    In comparison, the decision for ¡®Best Supporting Actress¡¯ seems a bit controversial.  There are four nominees for "Best Supporting Actress" this year, namely Feng Baobao in "92 Black Rose vs. Black Rose", Mo Shunyun in "92 Black Rose vs. Black Rose", Huang Yunshi in "92 Black Rose vs. Black Rose", Mo Shunyun in "I"  "Love Twisting Chai", Ip Tak-han's "Play Back to School 2".  Judging from the nominations, we can tell that Mo Shunyun, who has turned from a goddess to a comedian, is the most favored by the judges for her acting skills.  Apart from her, both Huang Yunshi and Ip Dexian's acting skills are not bad either.  But in the end, the judges gave the gold cup to Feng Baobao, an old star whose popularity has been declining year by year in recent years. It was somewhat out of consideration for human kindness.  A movie "Ruan Lingyu" not only won Maggie Cheung the best actor, Xiao Chong won the best film score, but also helped Pan Hengsheng win the best cinematography and Pu Ruomu the best art director. It was also the winner of this year's Academy Awards.  The most favorable contender for 'Best Artistic Film', it can be called the biggest winner of this year's Academy Awards.  With the passing of several small awards, this year¡¯s Academy Awards has finally reached its climax.  Lin Xiaozhi has been paying attention to the stage. When he saw Fa Ge and Carina Lau appearing on the podium together, he knew that the "Best Commercial Film" Gold Cup of this year's Academy Awards was about to be announced.  Chow Yun-fat is also a veteran actor who won the Hong Kong Film Awards. "Double Monday" is known as the Hong Kong box office guarantee. However, among the three of Jackie Chan, Chow Sing-chi and Chow Yun-fat, Fa Ge is the one who doesn't care about ostentation, even if he is just a walk-on and asks him for advice on the set.  He also gets a lot of advice on his acting skills, so he is very popular in the industry and is considered one of the big-name superstars with the best reputation.  After winning the Academy Award for Best Actor for the third time a few years ago with "A Lang's Story", in order to give others more opportunities, Chow Yun-fat has personally stated through the media that he will no longer participate in the Academy Award for Best Actor.  Selection.  It is his high integrity that has led the Academy Awards to hire him as an award presenter many times.  Today is no exception. She is partnered with Carina Lau, who just won the Best Actress Gold Cup at the Three Continents Film Festival in Nantes, France two years ago, to co-host the presentation of two extremely valuable awards, 'Best Commercial Film' and 'Best Literary Film'.  .  Fa Ge has a good reputation in the industry, so he received a round of applause as soon as he took the stage, and there were even boos and shouts asking him to sing a song to cheer him up, but he declined with a smile, saying that he had a drake voice, " all the guests present were very enthusiastic.  , I have to use my drake voice to sing songs for fun. Jia Ling, you know, just go to karaoke in private, and it will only send a few people to the hospital, but let me come here today in such a highly publicized environment.  It¡¯s a crime, I guess ATV¡¯s complaint phone number will be blown up before the song is finished!¡± Of course this was just a joke, but no one took it seriously.  Chow Yun-fat's vocals and singing skills are indeed not as good as those of many amphibious artists in the industry, but looking at the few records he has released in the past, the sales volume is not bad, although it is not a big hit. If not for Fa Ge's lack of multi-dimensional development in the past few years  I mean, based on his popularity, even if he can't be ranked among the top male singers in Hong Kong, it's certainly not difficult to get to the top.  Apart from anything else, with his reputation in the industry, many great composers and lyricists from Hong Kong and Taiwan would give him face if he invited him to sing.  Carina Lau covered her mouth and chuckled. She is a woman worthy of admiration. She experienced something like that the year before last. Although not many people in the circle knew about it, she still made a fuss in the small circle. It is not easy to get out of the shadows so quickly.  She chuckled and followed Fa Ge's words and said: "Then for the safety of all the guests present and the audience in front of the TV, I really can't let you sing a song!" Fa Ge shrugged, "  That's really a pity. In fact, on this festive day, I still have a strong sense of singing. But I can only hold back and wait until the awards ceremony is over to meet Eric Tsang, Eric Tsang, Eric Tsang and the rest.  Warrior, come with me to sing and have a great time!¡± There was a burst of laughter in the venue. Among the people who just encouraged Brother Fa to sing, his friend Zeng Zhiwei shouted the loudest. Even a camera turned to him playfully.  direction, exposed him.  After the two chatted and joked for a few words, Cen Jianxun and Shun Dianxia, ??who served as emcees, tacitly changed the topic to the main topic.  I just heard Cen Jianxun saying with emotion into the microphone: " Fei Fei, you have moved from the small screen to the big screen in the past few years, but you are not well-known enough (there was laughter in the venue), and you entered the industry relatively late (again)  It was a burst of laughter), obviously they don¡¯t know that there is such a saying in the industry. Well, Fa Zai and Jia Ling, have you heard of this saying in the past two years, saying that our Hong Kong movies have passed through the golden age and will soon.  Going to destruction?" Fa Ge nodded, but did not answer, giving the limelight to Carina Lau.  Carina Lau smiled gratefully, nodded and took the topic and replied, "Indeed, there was such a saying two years ago!" Although she is the number one sister of TVB, she is only the last one.I just transitioned from the small screen to the film industry a few years ago.  Although she won the Best Actress Gold Cup at the Three Continents Film Festival in Nantes, France, she can only be regarded as a first-line actress in the industry and has not yet entered the top circle.  Shun Jianxun continued: "Hong Kong movies were indeed in chaos in the past few years. Plagiarism and shoddy production were common. In addition, there was a brain drain caused by the emigration of some well-known people in the industry overseas. It is no wonder that some pessimists view Hong Kong movies this way!" He paused  After a pause, his voice became a little louder: "However, the sooner the shortcomings are exposed, the better it will be for the development of our Hong Kong films. As long as the shortcomings are solved carefully, the entire industry will develop in a healthier way. Most people think that gold  Last year, when the era was coming to an end, a total of 514 films were filmed in Hong Kong, and a total of 282 films were released in theaters to meet the audience, creating a total global box office of HK$4.727 billion, two-thirds of which came from overseas markets outside Hong Kong.  The names of 'Hong Kong films' and 'Oriental Hollywood' are becoming more and more influential around the world! " "Yes, last year Hong Kong produced films such as "The Assassin's League", "Once Upon a Time in China", "Fighting Back to School 2", "  There are dozens of wonderful movies including "Police Story 3", "The Deer and the Cauldron", "Ruan Lingyu", etc. Some of them have taken the world by storm and created an astonishing box office of about 3 billion Hong Kong dollars.  It has won numerous praises at the film festival!" Shen Dianxia took over and said.  With the sensational explanations of the two emcees, there was a round of applause in the venue.  The two looked at each other, and then said in unison: "Let us welcome the awarding moment of the 12th Hong Kong Film Awards' 'Best Commercial Film' award amidst warm applause!" The two emcees let  Halfway through, the temporary hosting position was given to the presenters who were qualified for this award - Chow Yun-fat and Carina Lau.  The etiquette lady slowly walked over from the backstage with a tray in front of countless attention. Chow Yun-fat said: "Before officially revealing the mystery, let me first review the award for the 'Best Commercial Film' at this year's Hong Kong Film Awards.  "What works are nominated for the award?" Carina Lau had already known them by heart, so she took up the topic and announced the name of the work: "Nominated for the 'Best Commercial Film' award at the 12th Hong Kong Film Awards.  There are five works in total, namely "The Warriors Su Qier" shot by Hong Kong Golden Harvest Film Group, "92 Black Rose vs. Black Rose" produced by Hong Kong Yingtao Film Production Co., Ltd., and "92 Black Rose vs. Black Rose" produced by Hong Kong Media Asia Pictures Group  "Once Upon a Time in China" (copyright belongs to Media Asia), "Police Story 3: Super Cop" filmed by Hong Kong Golden Harvest Film Group, and "Assassin's League" filmed by Hong Kong Media Asia Film Group!"  "The 'Best Commercial Film' Award is a new award that was refined from the original 'Best Film' Award by the Hong Kong Film Awards last year in order to encourage and promote the development of Hong Kong commercial films. However, this year, this award  It¡¯s the first time it¡¯s been awarded, but I guess it¡¯s not an easy task for the many judges of the Academy Awards to choose the best one among these outstanding works!¡± Chow Yun-fat sighed with a smile!  .  Carina Lau chuckled and nodded: "It is indeed a difficult problem. "Su Qier" is adapted from folk tales in the Guangdong and Guangxi areas. No matter the creativity or the performance of the actors, as well as the final box office and audience reputation, it has proved that this is an excellent commercial film.  Movie. "92 Black Rose vs. Black Rose" not only pays tribute to the old movie, but also cleverly reinvents it. The small length and story intersperse a series of hilarious mistakes on the basis of a main line.  Moreover, many actors have made great breakthroughs in their acting skills in this movie. It was the most successful small-budget dark horse movie last year. "Once Upon a Time 2" has another innovation based on the previous movie. It was directed by the genius director Tsui Hark.  With careful control, the content of the story not only surpasses the old movies of the past, but also points out a feasible route for the remake of the series of movies, which is really rare! " "Yes, in addition to the above three works, "Police Story 3" and "Police Story"  "League of Assassins" were the two best-selling overseas films of our Hong Kong films last year. The former set off a wave of police craze in Southeast Asia. I heard that in Singapore, the government even intends to invite director Tang Jili to collaborate with Jackie Chan again to film for the Singapore police.  A promotional film. The latter "Assassins" has created many Hong Kong films in Europe and the United States, and they are all extremely successful commercial films." After the brief introduction, the two looked at each other!  They both saw the uncontrollable excitement on each other's faces.  It was Fa Ge who was better able to hold the scene. After giving her a look, he took the initiative to speak loudly with his magnetic voice: "I think all the guests present and the audience friends in front of the TV may be like me now.  Ladies first, let us give a warm round of applause to Ms. Carina Lau to read out the list of winners for this year¡¯s Hong Kong Film Awards¡¯ ¡°Best Commercial Film¡±!Brother ? was trying to support her. He smiled gratefully and picked up the envelope from the tray held by the etiquette lady amidst the fierce applause in the venue. He first held it up high, and then he tore the seal and took out the award-winning paper inside.  After picking it up, he placed the envelope back on the tray, and then slowly opened the paper along the crease.  The excitement in the venue immediately dropped to silence. Although Chow Yun-fat gave the opportunity to announce the award to Carina Lau in a gentlemanly manner, he was also very concerned about which film would win the best award at this year's Academy Awards.  The commercial movie "Jinbei" leaned slightly, turned his face and glanced at the paper, his eyes were filled with uncontrollable excitement.  Looking at Carina Lau again, when she saw the award-winning work on the paper, her eyes widened for a moment, and she couldn't help but reach out her hand to cover her open mouth, and even her voice changed a little because she was so excited.  He said loudly: "I announce that the work that won the 'Best Commercial Film' award at the 12th Hong Kong Film Awards is "The League of Assassins" from Hong Kong Media Asia Pictures Group!" The venue was quiet.  A moment later, there was a burst of violent applause!
