    The reception ended with a flurry of drinks. Wan Xiaohu and Zhang Ziyi had a lively chat, exchanged mobile phone numbers, and decided to work together if there was an opportunity.  The next day, those who won the prize and those who did not win the prize left Beining one after another.  Wan Xiaohu said goodbye to directors Zhang Yang, Zhang Yuan and other directors one by one, and the crew embarked on a journey back to the capital.  Planes soared in the sky, and news about the Hundred Flowers Award and the Golden Rooster Award seemed to have wings and spread throughout the streets and alleys of China.  "The Golden Rooster Awards are bustling with excitement, and there is a happy reunion." "China Youth Daily" published a theme report: "On the evening of October 21, the 9th China Film Golden Rooster Awards were announced in Beining, Xiguang, and Zhang Yimou won the best director.  The two girls who were discovered first-hand, Gong Li won the Golden Rooster Award, and Zhang Ziyi won the Hundred Flowers Award, becoming the biggest winners of the night And the seven nominated films for the best feature film, six films from six film studios, divided up the main  Grand Prize, the only privately funded film, also won three special awards, ending with a happy ending! " "Yangcheng Evening News" reported: "This 'Golden Rooster' is really seriously ill." "It should be said that the Golden Rooster Award is the ultimate success.  He played well. The first four selections were generally quite orderly. At least the judges were serious in their attitude. The results were quite satisfactory and there were not many things to criticize about After that, it became confusing.  There are more and more things happening. " "For example, Ling Zifeng, who was a member of a certain jury, actually had his work competed and won the Best Director Award. For example" "The problems of the Golden Rooster Award have not been corrected thoroughly enough.  So far, there is no intention to improve, but it is a bit broken. " "The director of "The Choice of Life and Death" was not nominated, and the film won the award, ignoring the director's art! "A Sigh" did not win any box office awards, and Feng Xiaogang criticized it.  It's not unreasonable. Zhang Yimou has been in decline since "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", but he won the Golden Rooster Award this time without any effort. The biggest joke of this year's Golden Rooster Award is that the four awards were tied.  There are three best feature films! It¡¯s really a joke in the world!¡± ¡°Chutian Metropolis Daily¡± even criticized: ¡°What is the Golden Rooster doing? Where does this Golden Rooster want to take Chinese movies?¡±  In previous editions of the Golden Rooster Awards, the judges were non-experts, which has always been criticized. This time, more than half of the judges were experts, but they still tried to balance things in the same way, and they even went so far as to award four special awards alone.  It is even more dominant in four categories. What is this? " "Chinese films are on the verge of reform!" "Magic City News" focused on the special awards of the Golden Rooster Awards: "Last night,  The Golden Rooster Award won four special awards in a row. The winner of the Best Supporting Actress Special Award, Tenzin Zhuoga, looked so lonely and out of place on the podium. She was probably the only person who really cared about this film award, and she was naively moved.  With the glory brought by the movie, I don¡¯t know that the special award is just a consolation. Is Gong Li worthy of winning the award for best actress? "And that night, Wan Xiaohu, the youngest director in China, won the best screenplay and best director.  and three special awards for best feature film. After the awards, Wan Xiaohu joked that he wanted to be the most special director in China. The biggest gain for the author from this film festival was "Waiting Alone" and "The Butterfly Effect" directed by Wan Xiaohu.  Especially "The Butterfly Effect", after watching it, the author could not be more amazed. This is not Chinese science fiction, this is science fiction comparable to Hollywood! However, the Golden Rooster Award judges bluntly said that "The Butterfly Effect" does not have enough humanistic care, and the special award only rewards rare themes.  Seems particularly ridiculous!  "A reporter from "China Photography News" published a column, saying: "The Golden Rooster Award has finally come to light!  Different from the last time I guessed the Changqiu Film Festival, my prediction this time was absolutely a complete failure.  " "The Best Actor is wrong, the Best Actress is also wrong, the Best Director and Best Picture are right but they cannot be counted as right.  The only thing that comforts me is that few reporters at the awards ceremony are luckier than me. Some of them, like me, are looking for broken glasses all over the floor.  " "The failure of this 'betting on awards' made me feel ashamed. At the same time, I understood many new principles. At the same time, I also more clearly understood the nature of Chinese film awards: a group of judges with no position, a bunch of inexplicable  of awards.  When Chinese film awards failed to please the audience, they finally turned to the next best thing - to please stars or famous directors.  " "So the biggest feature of this year's Golden Rooster Awards is that it is full of 'balanced art'. On the one hand, it is reflected in the awarding, and no one dares to offend; on the other hand, our filmmakers are seriously out of balance between the film market and the audience's needs.  Under such circumstances, we still have to flatter ourselves and maintain a half-dead balance.  ¡± ¡°Or maybe it¡¯s because the quality of our domestic films are all on the same level, and we can¡¯t even tell the difference between good and bad?  "Critical media"??Of course there is also media that sings praises.  "Famous Brand Times" said: "At this year's Golden Rooster Awards, outstanding filmmakers all won awards. The great director Zhang Yimou deservedly won the best director. Gong Li won the Golden Rooster Best Actress, and Zhang Ziyi won the Best Actress Baihua. It is a good story. New director  Wan Xiaohu has won three consecutive special awards, and the limelight is close to that of Zhang Yimou! ""Beijing Youth Daily" continued to promote Dandelion's film: "Twenty-year-old director Wan Xiaohu's new film "Butterfly Effect" at the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival received a lot of praise!  It hit a new high. After seeing it, the students of Xi'an University clapped their hands and applauded. "Anyway, during this period, the media was covering the Golden Rooster Award.  Wan Xiaohu's three consecutive special awards have also become one of the most popular topics, which has greatly helped the hype of "The Butterfly Effect".  After Wan Xiaohu came back, he hid in the company and flipped through the newspaper to read his own news.  Among these reports that were either positive or negative, a report from China Materials News attracted Wan Xiaohu¡¯s attention.  "Who will pay attention to Chinese movies?" This is the title of the report. The article said: "The vigorous Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival has come to an end. It started from Feng Xiaogang's bombardment of the Golden Rooster Award and ended with the three best feature films. Stars competed for beauty, and the judges refreshed the bottom line.  The entire film festival is an entertainment interaction between reporters and celebrities. Whether it is exposing the truth or making a show of success, the audience always pays attention to the films on display, and almost no one cares about them.  Filmmaker Xie Fei once complained to the media: "China's film market is so bad now. Many films do not have special distribution channels. As a result, the funds invested cannot be recovered, and many of the films produced cannot be seen by the audience, which puts the filmmakers at a disadvantage."  His movie "Yixi Dolma" faced this situation. He believed that the current Chinese film system must be reformed in a down-to-earth manner. Some film studio directors have not been able to pay wages or be laid off for many years.  If he doesn¡¯t save himself, he will only make movies that are funded by the state and cannot recoup his investment.¡± ¡°In the end, Xie Fei said that he will switch to making TV series and has no plans to make movies for the time being. ¡°You can make money by making TV series, and you can also teach. There are many students.¡±  , and the income is high. 'This has to be said to be the tragedy of Chinese filmmakers. The films they make cannot enter the public eye at all. They make so many stars famous every year. In the end, domestic films are becoming more and more corrupt every day." "Today's China.  The film market has reached its lowest point since the 1980s, with piracy attacks, strict censorship, business cluelessness, and rigid content. In the long run, where will Chinese films go? As Mr. Lu Xun once said, "  If you don¡¯t explode in silence, you will perish in silence. I hope that Chinese movies will explode, not perish!¡± After reading this report, Wan Xiaohu¡¯s original narcissistic mood suddenly disappeared.  Xie Fei was known to Wan Xiaohu. He turned out to be the vice president of Nortel.  He left school to make movies, as he said, and later returned to teach at Nortel.  ¡°Chinese movies are having a hard time right now.  We need a market but not a market, we need an audience but not an audience, we need talent but not talent, we need a mechanism but not a mechanism.  The reform of the cinema chain system has not been introduced for a long time. The survival situation of filmmakers, especially independent filmmakers, is almost as bad as that of Iranian films, and it is not as good as Iran in terms of cultural openness.  China currently produces more than 300 movies every year, but 270 of them have no chance of being released.  Of the other thirty films, twenty had to lose money. Of the last ten, maybe three were real money-makers, and the other seven relied on the main theme to win the box office.  This is a huge blow to the enthusiasm of filmmakers.  Even if the theater system is introduced in 2002, the Chinese film market will become increasingly popular.  It¡¯s just that the movie market is booming.  If it weren¡¯t for Domestic Film Protection Month, Chinese films would have fallen under the attack of Hollywood.  In 2014, before Wan Xiaohu was reborn, the market reached a new high. A "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" made one billion yuan in mainland China, but it was horribly shabby overseas and had a bad reputation.  At that time, movies in the small country of South Korea were already on the rise, but Chinese movies were still third-rate internationally.  Wong Jiawei worked hard for many years and produced "The Grandmaster". He couldn't even conquer his own people, but he boasted about conquering Oscars, but he came back in despair.  We went back and forth, shouted slogans no matter how many times, but we just couldn¡¯t get Chinese movies out.  Japan and South Korea have produced many classic movies in the new millennium, which have left their mark in film history. Even Brother Ah San has made many good movies, but Chinese movies have never found their direction.  Then, while wandering around, those who have some sense will make money, and those who have no sense will directly blame the censorship.  Celebrities have even benefited from China's rapid economic development, and they all claim to enter Hollywood, but in the end they all play almost useless supporting roles.  A person who is truly down-to-earth and studying for Chinese movies.Too few!  "I am reborn once. Should I just muddle along and live my life in a carefree way? Or should I also contribute to Chinese movies and make some contribution?" Holding the newspaper, Wan Xiaohu was confused.  Who doesn¡¯t have a shining red heart, who doesn¡¯t have any ideals and ambitions?  ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª (Thanks to Peerless lv Hermit, I Don¡¯t Understand Nothing, Enlightenment and Letter, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster! g for the reward.)
