Chapter 289 Award Ceremony


    Hong Jinbao and his entourage rolled into the venue in a panic.


    The filmmakers here couldn''t help but laugh. They respect Hong Jinbao, but they don''t respect Lam Ching-ying, Taibo, Huang Xia... let alone those unknown martial arts masters. Martial arts masters have a low status in the Hong Kong entertainment industry and are uneducated. They have always been synonymous with barbaric grassroots. .


    However, Hong Jinbao is good at flattering people and has made many brothers famous. Once he becomes famous, it will be different. He is surrounded by good people.


    He found a seat and sat down, saying hello to his acquaintances. He was on pins and needles because of those joking eyes, and cursed in a low voice: "Look at you guys, it''s like begging for food. You can forget about shirts and jeans. Huang Xi, you wear shorts." , do you have any common sense?”


    "The six of us can''t even get together a suit. It''s not like you don''t know. Besides, you don''t have one to wear either." Huang Xia felt aggrieved.


    "I, I sent my suit to be washed!"


    Hong Jinbao said stubbornly, "I have all my formal attire made to order, and their notice was so short that I couldn''t even make the clothes now."


    He raised his head and looked at the second floor, which was full of movie fans. He became more and more annoyed: It was so miserable, and the image was gone at all! But then I thought again, what kind of image do I want? Do any female students like me? I''m not Aaron.


    At this moment, there was a sudden commotion behind, accompanied by chattering.


    Several people turned around and saw Fu Qi and Shi Hui leading the team. The leftist team appeared in an unexpected way. Every one of them was in high spirits, handsome men and beautiful women, and instantly became the most beautiful boys in the room.


    "Isn''t that right? How are the leftists doing now? In my impression, they are poor and rustic."


    "People are gaining momentum, and things are changing."


    "Those newcomers are in good condition. We have a team of actors, and if we recruit a few directors to join them, things will change in Hong Kong."


    Tsui Hark''s eyes widened even more, and his beard was blowing with anger. Chen Qi passed by him calmly, took a look at his outfit, showed a surprised expression, turned his head and continued walking forward.


    "Hahaha, Archie is so funny!"


    Shi Nansheng died laughing.


    "The street kid is full of bad ideas. He knew I was coming to participate, but he didn''t even tell me!"


    "It''s not bad, it''s much more embarrassing than us."


    Hong Jinbao is also talking about it.


    "Why are the left so high-profile? Did they get the news in advance?"


    "They all look so slutty, it makes me uncomfortable to look at them!"


    "They must have known about it in advance, otherwise who would wear formal clothes? Deliberately looking at our jokes!"


    "Brother Sanmao, I''m going to meet you!"


    The most embarrassing yellow shrimp wanted to regain some ground, suddenly stood up, rushed down the aisle, and rushed over.


    I was walking forward here when I suddenly saw a guy coming towards me menacingly. The aisle was narrow and he didn''t give way. His face clearly stated that he wanted to get into trouble.


    Chen Qi frowned and protected everyone in front of him.


    “…”


    Huang Xia had a proud smile on his face. He didn''t dare to make any big moves. He just wanted to bump into him and make the other party embarrassed. However, when he was still three or four steps away, someone suddenly appeared out of nowhere.


    "Holy shit!"


    He felt himself being grabbed by two strong hands, pushed sideways, and pressed firmly onto the seat next to him.


    Huang Xia learned Hong Quan from Liu Jialiang''s father, but he was trapped like a chicken. He raised his head in panic, faced an extremely ordinary face, and spoke in Mandarin:


    "Sir, give way!"


    “…”


    He swallowed, and inexplicably felt that the other party had a murderous aura, as if he had been on the battlefield. He did not dare to move anymore. After Chen Qi and others passed by, the other party let go: "Thank you for your cooperation!"


    From an outsider''s perspective, the yellow shrimp seems to have turned into a soft-legged shrimp, subdued by one move, and as well-behaved as a baby.


    "Wow!" Liu Dehua and Liang Jiahui all saw it, and the middle school boy was excited and said excitedly: "Mr. Chen, your bodyguard is so awesome!"


    "What do you think? I have killed countless Vietnamese. I am the first in the military competition. I am a master of martial arts. I can break gold and jade with hard Qigong. I can go in and out seven times with a spear!"


    When you go out, your identity is given by yourself.


    Chen Qi didn''t know what Xiao Mo''s resume was, but it didn''t matter. He was very satisfied with Xiao Mo. I treated you to so many big dinners, and your special mother finally came into use!


    Over there, Huang Xia returned to his seat dejectedly, and had to face Hong Jinbao''s saliva: "Please! Who asked you to go, don''t you think it''s embarrassing enough?"


    "I just want to test his strength!"


    Yellow Shrimp muttered.


    Hong Jinbao shook his head. He was different from these low-level martial arts masters. His grandparents were both well-known seniors in the industry. Yu Zhanyuan''s drama school was invested by his grandmother. He went to study drama and was a young master of the employer family.


    Regarding Chen Qi''s status as a mainland official, big bosses like Run Run Shaw and Zou Wenhuai know best, and people like Hong Jinbao who have seen the world also understand.


    Those who really don''t take Chen Qi seriously are usually the grassroots.


    This little episode didn''t attract everyone''s attention. The left group sat down, which was in sharp contrast to everyone else and made them feel uncomfortable. Because the left is synonymous with being poor and rustic, and now it’s the other way around.


    At about 6 o''clock, the ceremony began.


    Before the awards were given, a slideshow of a brief history of Hong Kong films was played, followed by two hosts, one from Radio Hong Kong and one from TVB. Even Chen Qi didn''t recognize it.


    In fact, apart from the sense of form he added, the content is still lackluster.


    After the opening remarks, the awards were presented immediately.


    Five of the main awards are limited to films produced in Hong Kong. The top ten Chinese-language films and the top ten foreign-language films are all selected from films screened in Hong Kong.


    There are no complicated award procedures or many constraints, and the main theme is relaxed and casual.


    Xu Guanwen won the Best Actor Award for "Modern Bodyguard". He did not come, and Xu Guanying accepted it on his behalf.


    Hui Yinghong won the Best Actress Award for "The Elders". She was quite excited on stage and said "thank you" more than a dozen times, but she didn''t care afterward. The award was kept under her bed at home for a long time.


    The best screenplay went to Zhang Jianting of "The Story of Hu Yue".


    The best picture went to "Father and Son", and the best director also went to Fang Yuping, the director of this drama. Fang Yuping is a representative figure of the New Wave. He has only made five films and won three Best Director awards. He is extremely awesome.


    This film was produced by Phoenix Company, and the boss of Phoenix also went up to speak.


    There are three companies on the left, Great Wall, Phoenix, and Xinlian. Chen Qi has a strong affinity with Great Wall and is not very familiar with those two companies. He listened to the other party''s speech and shook his head secretly. It was still the same old thing.


    In a place like Hong Kong, ideological education alone is not enough.


    You have to conquer them while leading everyone to make money, so that you can integrate them.


    Tsui Hark: "I didn''t expect that someone would be brave enough to hold a film award. I''m very happy that someone is willing to be a pioneer!"


    Xu Anhua: "To be honest, today''s award ceremony was completely beyond my expectation. I hope you will do better and better!"


    Not to mention the top ten foreign language films, the directors of the top ten Chinese language films went up to give speeches, and they were not entirely polite. Everyone hoped that there would be an authoritative award in Hong Kong, and most of them were encouraging.


    Hong Jinbao went up on behalf of "Ghostbusters" and laughed at himself: "I took my suit to be washed. Well, I didn''t plan to wear it at all... But next time you invite me, I will definitely dress up and show up to support our own movie. award!"


    "Whoosh!"


    Amid applause, one after another took the stage.


    The top ten Chinese-language films actually include three mainland Chinese films, "Legend of Tianyun Mountain", "Homecoming" and "Tai Chi". Naturally, they were all introduced by the leftists. Except for Chen Qi, no one came, and the leftists took the lead.


    Then, the host finally announced:


    "Now I invite the recipient of the "Tai Chi" award, Mr. Chen Qi!"
