Chapter 751 Which One Has Better Fighting Skills?
He won't go out if he can't, even if the New York Film Festival invites Luo Quan.
Before this year, the world's most famous film festivals were Venice, Cannes and Berlin.
This year, the American Film Workers Union organized a large number of stars, actors, and directors from all over the world to hold the first New York Film Industry Conference. The theme was to use an inclusive perspective to discover the wonderfulness of world movies and achieve a diversified effect.
In the past, film festivals and Oscars were almost the opposite, especially the Cannes Film Festival.
Anyone who can win at Cannes will basically be unable to compete for Oscars by default.
In the nearly 100-year award-winning history, only a handful of films have won both Cannes and Oscars.
This time the New York Film Festival is the opposite of the other three major film festivals, and has been revealed by many industry insiders as a benchmark for the Oscars.
In other words, if you get the Lady Victory Trophy at the New York Film Festival, which is a special trophy for the New York film industry, you will have a high probability of winning next year's Academy Award.
Of course, the organizer has never acknowledged this, and it is all rumors spread by some so-called industry insiders on the Internet.
However, the standards of this New York Film Festival are very high. Basically all the stars who participated in the Oscars at the beginning of the year came to participate. They even invited quite a few veteran film and television stars. The gold content is even higher than that of the Oscars in recent years. few.
Those celebrities who were still waiting and watching finally came to the film festival on their own initiative after seeing the organizers' efforts.
Although the film festival is invitation-only, it is only for those who are likely to win the award.
During the festival, anyone can come and watch the film.
And if there is space at the award ceremony, you can also enter by contacting the organizer.
The organizers probably thought that this was the first time that the celebrities would not agree immediately, so they left a way out.
The film festival had already started when Luo Quan was feeding mosquitoes in the mountains, and she had been invited in advance.
She was in the mountains at the time, so she didn't go.
Later, she came out and heard that "Forrest Gump" was nominated for the best picture competition. She just asked the assistant director to help participate on her behalf. If she won the award, it would be the assistant director who would go on stage to receive it.
It's really not that she is lazy, it's mainly that she just came out of the mountains. She has been tired for a month and really doesn't want to go back to the hard work of traveling.
Not to mention that it is just a film festival that has little reputation and gold content. Even if it is Oscar or Cannes, don't try to drag her out of the room.
In the live broadcast room, Luo Quan explained this to fans.
"I think you are just plain lazy!"
"It's a prize after all, and so many big guys are there, so it's not as bad as I thought."
"It's definitely not bad. All aspects of the specifications are on par with the Oscars. It feels like it was brought out by the Oscars to compete with the three major film festivals."
"It doesn't feel very good. It's not very topical."
"This kind of award still relies on time and word-of-mouth to accumulate fame."
………………
Faced with Luo Quan's "quibble", fans must not accept her at all, because she has made similar excuses many times.
However, considering that she had been very hard in the previous month, everyone did not say anything more and focused on the award ceremony.
After so many days, the New York Film Festival has come to an end.
To be fair, the quality of the films being screened these days is quite high.
And because it focuses on the international genre, you can also see movies in small languages, including those from Thailand and Turkey.
Of course, China also has one, that is "Farewell My Concubine".
When this movie was set up, it was just to win awards. This is what the leaders told themselves clearly.
The quality of the movie is there, and people at home and abroad can appreciate the sadness and beauty and empathize with the characters.
Therefore, "Farewell My Concubine" not only won the box office runner-up in the Huaxiba Spring Festival, but also gained an extremely high reputation abroad.
Especially when it was released in Japan and South Korea, it directly won the box office championship for three weeks.
At the Cannes Film Festival in May, "Farewell My Concubine" also lived up to expectations and won the Palme d'Or.
It's just that Luo Quan was in New York preparing for the completion of "Forrest Gump" and couldn't get away.
So the person who went to France to attend the Cannes Film Festival was also an assistant director.
When making a movie, Luo Quan's assistant directors were all tool men and basically did not participate in the production of the movie. Sometimes they were no different from mascots.
But when a movie wins awards, an assistant director comes in handy.
Because apart from the producer and director, the assistant director and screenwriter are the largest members of a film crew.
Luo Quan's films are all produced, written and directed by himself, and the assistant director has become the number two person.
So at the Cannes Film Festival, the assistant director of "Farewell My Concubine" also attended the scene with a group of leading actors.
The ending of this award was also surprising and then happy. When the best picture was read, the award presenter first read the name of another movie.
The faces of all the Chinese and Chinese guests in the audience changed drastically.
Because those Chinese directors on the Cannes jury all vowed to tell them that "Farewell My Concubine" was guaranteed to win the Palme d'Or.
The domestic bullshit has already been blown out, and the media has even written news to congratulate "Farewell My Concubine" for winning the Cannes Grand Prix, and is just waiting for the results to be released to gain popularity.
The result is this.
No matter how self-conscious you are, you will inevitably show some expressions of surprise or disbelief at this time.
It wasn't until a full seven seconds later that the presenter, who was deliberately creating suspense, revealed the title of the second film to win the Palme d'Or.
It is "Farewell My Concubine" which is highly rated internationally.
It turns out that this time, for the first time, the Palme d'Or has a double-yolked egg.
The judges felt that the two winning films were so good that they couldn't bear to abandon them no matter who they were.
Just break the rules and award both.
Two films won the same award, which does not mean that the gold content has been reduced.
On the contrary, because of this unprecedented double yolk egg, they are even more legendary.
Many years later, most of the Cannes Palme d'Or winners may not be remembered by anyone without inserting the information.
But the only double yolk egg will definitely remain fresh in my memory.
All in all, "Farewell My Concubine" is a winner this time and has exceeded the target assigned by its superiors.
As for next year's Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, although it is quite tempting, it is theoretically impossible to win, so no one has any expectations.
Anyway, it is already very good to win Cannes.
After many years, Huaxia has once again won the best at such an international film festival, and its domestic box office has also hit new highs. This proves that the domestic film industry is thriving and everything is developing in a good direction.
After Cannes, it’s the New York Film Festival.
Although "Farewell My Concubine" was not invited this time, another social-themed film from China participated in the selection.
The movie is very good, something Luo Quan has never seen in his previous life. It tells the story of a good old man who was bullied by the Internet because of malicious editing, and eventually committed suicide by jumping off a building.
During this period, his relatives and friends had many opportunities to save him, but they all chose to remain silent because the maliciously edited videos were too real.
In the end, until the protagonist jumped off the building, the person who maliciously edited the video did not come forward to clarify the incident.
The righteous people on the Internet did not feel guilty at all, but focused on the next innocent person.
The plot and ending can be said to be quite dark.
The domestic version was modified, and ended with the malicious editor publicly clarifying that he would not accept legal sanctions, and the keyboard warriors also apologized for the good old man.
Is this possible in reality?
Luo Quan hasn't seen it much anyway.
She herself had been framed many times before, and every time rumors started, there were more keyboard warriors coming to enforce justice.
When the truth finally came out, not many people were willing to admit their mistakes and apologize to her.
In this world, the most difficult thing to look directly at is the human heart.
Whether it's your own or someone else's.
This movie called "The Crowd" undoubtedly portrays all living beings in the new era network environment extremely well. It can be said to be penetrating, profound and pungent.
It would have been perfect if the final ending hadn't been changed to this great glory.
If she were to film it, according to her character, she should darken the protagonist and get rid of the bastard who framed her.
But if it were shot like this, the movie would probably not pass the censorship.
In any case, the quality of this film is very good, and it is definitely qualified to be nominated for awards.
It's just that the main creator of the show doesn't have any connections in New York, so it's much more difficult to win an award than it was for "Farewell My Concubine" to win in Cannes.
I have to admit that sometimes connections are as important as strength.
In other words, connections are strength.
Under such a premise, domestic movie fans did not have too many expectations for the movie "The Crowd" to win, and watched the awards show just for fun.
After dinner at noon, Luo Quan also started the live broadcast, broadcasting live to Fen Rong and giving critical comments.
The content of her critical review has nothing to do with the movie, but the appearance and status of the female guests.
There were many well-known actresses attending the party this time, ranging from as young as seventeen to as old as seventy.
It is said that European and American women have a short shelf life and start to decline at the age of thirty.
But in fact, as long as they are well maintained, some people in their forties can still look young.
It's just that there are too many people there who like to be exposed to the sun, so their skin is very susceptible to damage and aging.
This is one of the reasons why there are so many skin cancers there.
In comparison, Luo Quan's habit of staying in the room without seeing light all year round is very effective in protecting the skin.
If this continues, other people of the same age will have thirty-year-old skin, and she will probably still be about the same as she was in her early twenties.
Rui commented on several actresses who appeared on the scene, and the party officially began.
Similar to the Oscars, the host also comes on stage to tell a few jokes to liven up the atmosphere, then the singers perform, and then it's time to award awards.
Everything has been planned, and the guests and fans are waiting for the jokes from the talk show actor-turned-host.
However, when the host really made fun of a female guest at the scene, the female guest's husband went directly to the stage and gave the host a big mouth.
After he got off the stage, he even cursed twice, which made people realize that this was not the effect of the show, but that he was really angry.
This beating husband is not an unknown person, but an extremely well-known black actor in the United States. He is a national-level veteran actor in the country, and his popularity is also very high. He is a powerful and popular actor.
Such a rude move by such a celebrity was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.
Although the host did offend his wife by making fun of her hair loss due to medication, as a husband, he should be angry.
But what's interesting is that the black actor was obviously laughing from ear to ear at the beginning, and only after seeing his wife's gloomy face did he go on stage to beat her up.
What's this? Isn't this a typical example of strict wife control?
Netizens all said: If his wife hadn't turned her face away, he might have been able to keep laughing.
Of course, these are all guesses.
The fact is that the actor named Spike hit the host, who is black. Because he is also black, he will not be accused of racial discrimination. This is a blessing among misfortunes.
Unfortunately, he may be disqualified from the Oscars for his violent behavior.
Especially after netizens revealed that his relationship with his wife was not that good at all, the reputation of this top American star began to decline rapidly.
On the contrary, the reputation of the New York Film Festival began to rise rapidly because of this slap.
After this slap, the number of people in all live broadcast rooms increased by at least 30%.
The American broadcast was delayed for five minutes. After editing, the beating and swearing were no longer visible.
Fortunately, due to network problems, Luo Quan watched the Japanese broadcast, without editing, and the whole process was high-definition and uncensored.
After this slap, not only her, but also the friends in the live broadcast room were shocked.
No one expected that the famous Emperor Shi would do such a rude and violent thing.
The countless positive images he had established before suddenly collapsed.
"I think as long as the host doesn't do anything, you can scold him back, but it's definitely wrong to hit someone first.
If the host was serious, Emperor Shi might be in trouble. "
After beating the person, Luo Quan pretended that it had nothing to do with him and sat down to talk for once without pain in his back.
"Then if the host really scolds you, what will you do?"
"Does anyone really dare to scold Luo Bao in front of his face?"
"Yes, but the end is very miserable, either in jail or in the hospital."
"There should be no such warriors now."
"Indeed, who has the best fighting skills? China Yuzhou Luo Boxing Champion!"
"Who dares to block this punch that has lasted twenty years?"
………………
Fans said a few words and turned the fire on her again, and she could only smile helplessly.
"How could I be so violent? Please stop spreading rumors."
