Hualiu Director

Chapter 224

The Shanghai International Film Festival this time is the third film festival that Lin Hong has participated in seriously, and this time he finally has a good time.

The middlemost position in the second row was arranged by the organizing committee for Lin Hong, and besides him were the four production crews who accompanied him on the red carpet today.

Of course, sitting next to Lin Hong was his girlfriend Song Xiaohan.

This is the card that belongs to Lin Hong and "Life Kiss Me Painfully".

Lin Hong looked around, and found that the jury of the organizing committee and representatives of the big bosses from the city of sh were sitting in the first row.

The second, third, and fourth rows are representatives of the crews nominated for the Golden Goblet Awards.

For example, not far to the left of Lin Hong is the crew of "My Name Is Not Pan Jinlian". Directors Feng Gang and Fan Bingbing are surrounded by crew members.

Tonight, Feng Gang was nominated for Best Director at the Golden Goblet Awards, "My Name Is Not Pan Jinlian" was also nominated for Best Film at the Golden Goblet Awards, and Fan Bingbing was nominated for Best Actress at the Golden Goblet Awards.

The three nominations are second only to Lin Hong's five Golden Goblet nominations, and all three are heavyweight nominations, which means that there are two direct competitions between Lin Hong and Feng Gang, and other competitors come from other countries.

This has caused the outside world to hype the so-called dispute between the old and new generations of directors, but the two directors involved don't think so.

Of course, strictly speaking, Feng Gang also belongs to directors from other countries, because he got the Glinka from Maple Leaf Country.

In addition to the crew of "My Name Is Not Pan Jinlian", Lin Hong also saw many familiar faces.

Wang Bo was nominated for the Golden Goblet Award for Best Actor for his wonderful performance in "Under the Ice". However, he has a good relationship with Lin Hong and the others, and he doesn't feel like a competitor at all. He said hello and even invited Lin Hong to write the theme song for his directorial debut.

There were also many other celebrities present, such as Hu Ge, Peng Yuyan, Zhao Yanzi, etc., who would greet Lin Hong whenever they saw him.

And Lin Hong not only responded enthusiastically, but also introduced his girlfriend Song Xiaohan by the way.

In just ten minutes, Lin Hong added seven or eight people's WeChat accounts, of course the one at work. If he wants to enter Lin Hong's life WeChat account like Huang Xiaoming and Qin Hao, the relationship is not yet in place.

Compared with the serious Huabiao Awards, the Shanghai International Film Festival is more open and close to the people. Among the hundreds of fans who were invited to enter the venue were all kinds of skin colors and faces, and many of them held support cards of their favorite stars. , It's just a pity that Lin Hong didn't see his own.

But that's good, he and his fan support club have long agreed not to pick up the plane, not to do data, not to disturb, just focus on the work.That's fine.

Since the nominations related to Lin Hong set a historical record for Chinese-language films at the Shanghai International Film Festival, this year's Shanghai Film Festival is destined to be a year when Chinese-language films are in the limelight, so the media has long gone crazy.

More than 50 media outlets in Chinese-speaking areas broadcast the award ceremony today. Of course, the live TV broadcast is the privilege of the Six Princesses. On this point, even the host Red Fan TV can only stare blankly and obediently accept the broadcast signal of the Six Princesses.

However, the right to broadcast live online was won by Penguin at a high price, and their live broadcast signal appeared one step earlier than that of the six princesses.

As Penguin's guest commentator, specially invited director Lu Chuan and the recently popular actor Guo Jinfei will explain this year's Shanghai Film Festival, so that the audience can have a more thorough understanding of the film and actors.

"Penguin Entertainment launched a voting activity a week ago, asking: Do you think director Lin Hong can win the best director at this year's film festival.

47.3% of them chose 'a. Yes, they deserve it'.

35.8% chose 'b. Can't, he's too tender'.

16.9% chose 'c. Look at luck'.

It can be seen that the audience is still very optimistic about the strength of director Lin Hong. "

Lu Chuan graduated from the Beijing Film and Television Directing Department and is Lin Hongzong's senior brother.

Although he is a young leader in the "Northwest Circle", he is still very optimistic about his junior brother Lin Hong.

"That's right, although director Lin Hong is young, he has profound artistic attainments in film. Although I have only worked with him in one film, I am completely impressed by him."

Lin Hong is Guo Jinfei's Bole, who now has a lot of film appointments, and has already won six or seven commercial endorsements, as well as a lot of variety show invitations.

At the family dinner at the mother-in-law's house a few days ago, he was finally not compared with his brother-in-law Lu Yi by his mother-in-law, because he is now more popular than Lu Yi.

"Yes, anything is possible.

Although the competition with Lin Hong this time is all well-known international directors, "Life Kiss Me Painfully" directed by Lin Hong does not lose to them at all.

Moreover, in the selection of the best foreign language film of the Beautiful Country Golden Globe Awards, these competing films either did not even get nominated, or directly lost to "Life Kiss Me Badly".

Although the aesthetic vision of the competition jury and the judges may be different, the emotions and artistic aesthetics conveyed in "Life Kiss Me Bitterly" are very recognized by both the East and the West, and it can be said to be a master.

If I were a judge, I would have no reason to bury "Life Kiss Me Badly". "

Lu Chuan's statement is very defensive, of course, this is also because Lin Hong and his "Life Kiss Me Bitterly" are amazing enough.

While the two were chatting about Lin Hong's other nominated works, the live broadcast reminded the guests to take their seats, and the time came to 19:55, which meant that the awards ceremony would officially start in 5 minutes.

Lin Hong also stopped talking with acquaintances, and then sat down and held his girlfriend Song Xiaohan's hand. This was the first time in her life that she participated in such a grand awards ceremony, and he was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable.

However, Song Xiaohan was born with a big heart, and she behaved very decently, which did not worry Lin Hong at all.

The on-site director entered the countdown, the gorgeous curtain on the stage was slowly opened, and the TV broadcast signal of Yang Dad officially spread to thousands of households.

Amid applause from the audience, a picture appeared on the big screen.

A teenager chasing his movie dream rode a bicycle through the streets and alleys of Shanghai. Using editing technology, he saw many movie clips that had received good reviews at the Shanghai Film Festival in the past and incorporated them into it.

The teenager finally came to the Shanghai Cultural Square and came to the awards ceremony tonight.

The screen door slowly opened, and three hosts, Ling Hai, Chen Cheng, and Jiang Xiaohan, stepped onto the stage, two Red Fan TVs, and a representative of the Six Princesses. This is tonight's host lineup.

Among them, Ling Hai and Jiang Xiaohan were in charge of hosting in Chinese, and Chen Cheng translated and hosted in fluent English.

It's just that although the three hosts tonight have good professional skills, they are all dignified and lacking in vitality.

I don't know how the host lineup of the organizing committee was selected, and the overall feeling is a bit flat.

But soon everyone's attention shifted from the host to the movie.

Because there are too many awards to be awarded, and the time is limited, the awarding session will begin immediately after the host briefly introduces the big guys present and thanks the sponsors.

The Golden Goblet Award for Best Animation was presented first, but when two award presenters, one Chinese and one foreign, came to the stage, Lin Hong was a little dumbfounded.

When foreign award presenters spoke English, Chen Cheng translated into Chinese on the spot.

When the Chinese award presenters spoke Chinese, she translated it into English on the spot.

Well, although this operation is for more people to understand, how can the guests perform well under such circumstances.

So when they came to the stage and announced that the winning animation was "Fatal Van Gogh", there were sporadic applause in the venue.

"Can't we prepare an instant translator for everyone?"

Lin Hong was a little speechless. It was hard for him to imagine what it would be like if he came to the stage to say a word and had to stop for a while for Chen Cheng to translate.

But what puzzled Lin Hong even more was that the winners did not have the opportunity to give their acceptance speeches, but were invited off the stage after taking photos with the two presenters.

"Thank you to the two award presenters for their wonderful speeches."

Jiang Xiaohan herself laughed a little awkwardly, this process may have made her very speechless.Then they rushed to the process non-stop.

The best documentary, the organizing committee award and the artistic contribution award were announced one by one.

"The next thing that will be announced is the Best Live Action Short Film Award. The award presenters are Chinese director Guan Hu and Italian actress Sonia Cassano."

As soon as he said that this award was going to be presented, Lin Hong and the others instantly cheered up. This is the first of his 13 related nominations tonight.

Kong Xiao even rubbed his hands nervously. Although he had already won two international awards in Cannes and Berlin, this was his first time at a domestic awards ceremony. If he could win an award, he would feel like returning home.

"Here we come, director Lin Hong's first related nomination tonight is here."

"Don't be nervous, "Three Monks" should be the most stable of all Lin Hong's related nominations tonight."

Lu Chuan is very confident in "Three Monks". He asked himself that it would be difficult for him to shoot such a deep short film within half a month.

Like Lu Chuan, Lin Hong is also full of confidence in "Three Monks". He doesn't think there is any problem with Kong Xiao accepting the award on stage.

"The winner of the best live-action short film at the 20th Shanghai International Film Festival is ~"Three Monks", congratulations!"

At the moment when Lu Chuan announced, Kong Xiao excitedly stood up and threw his fists to celebrate. Li Xian and Zhang Shan next to him were also excited. "Three Monks" is also their current pinnacle work. Although it is only a short film, but It's also enough to be proud of.

In the applause, Kong Xiao high-fived everyone around him, and then straddled a few positions beside Lin Hong, he must give Lin Hong a hug, this is his gratitude to Lin Hong.

After Kong Xiao took the stage, he had a face-to-face ceremony with the sexy Sonia Cassano, and then they also took a photo together, and did not give him a chance to give an acceptance speech. This made Kong Xiao, a pretender, very depressed.

In the courtyard in Beijing, Lin Qinglan found the best live-action short film among all thirteen nominations of Lin Hong, and then ticked off the latter.

"Great, a good start, that's a good sign!"

Sister Hu was also very happy. Originally, Lin Hong wanted the whole family to go to the scene together, but Lao Lin thought it was too ostentatious, so he chose to watch TV at home.

"There are still five awards in the main competition. Except for the best actress, the rest are related to "Life Kiss Me Painfully". This is the first time at the Shanghai Film Festival. We also look forward to Lin Hong and "Life "Kiss Me Bad" can break more history."

Lu Chuan knew where the focus of tonight was, so he did not hesitate to create momentum for Lin Hong, who is currently the most relevant person on the barrage.

"The next thing to be awarded is the Best Screenplay Award..."

Lin Hong began to get nervous, because his personal first nomination tonight came.
