China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 56 Awarding (Part 1)

The best laugh is when you laugh at the end.

This may be producer Zhang Tong's self-comfort, but Chen Jingxing kept it in mind.

And today is the day to decide who will have the last laugh.

January 5, 8:00 pm Eastern Time.

The theater has been carefully decorated. Although there is no splendid decoration, it still looks low-key and luxurious.

As the most commercially influential awards ceremony in the North American film industry after the Oscars and Golden Globes, the closing ceremony of the Orlando Film Festival is also the focus of countless movie fans.

This year, tens of millions of viewers in 54 countries and regions are expected to watch the live broadcast of the awards ceremony and closing ceremony.

The main creative staff of "Fatal Identity" such as Chen Jingxing were arranged in the seats on the right side near the front row. The other main creative staff of the films shortlisted for the main competition unit also sat closer to the front according to different movies.

"Hello everyone, welcome to the awards ceremony of the 37th Orlando International Fantasy Film Festival!"

Luo Chen rolled his eyes: "It has nothing to do with me. I'm so nervous."

Zhang Tong's implication is that the essence of the Orlando Film Festival awards is to divide the pork. If you give "Shadow of the Wind" such a big gift, it will obviously miss the chance to win the grand prize in the future.

Chen Jingxing then faced the camera and switched to Chinese: "I would also like to thank my father and mother. Without your support and tolerance for my film dream, I would definitely not be able to stand here. You will always be my favorite people."

"The winner of the best screenplay at the 37th Orlando International Fantasy Film Festival is... Johnson-chen, "Fatal Identity"!"

Although he had expected it, the arrival of this moment still made his heart beat wildly. This was the first film award he had won, and it was at the Orlando Film Festival!

The three heavyweight awards of Golden Spruce, Best Director and Jury Prize are basically awarded to three different films respectively. Not only Orlando, but also other well-known international film festivals basically follow a similar logic. The difference is only based on degree.

It’s just a matter of difference. Of course, the films that win awards are basically the best among the shortlisted films. The logic of film festival awards is very simple, that is, try to let excellent films have some achievements, don’t let the losers take all, and don’t engage in winner-take-all

.

Hahaha - everyone in the audience laughed.

As for the character itself, the male protagonist is the most righteous, brave and kind-hearted personality of the murderer, so there is basically no depth to the character.

The awarding of the Best Actor clearly reflects this. To say whether the performance of the young actor in "Shadow of the Wind" is good or not, it is definitely not bad, and he is very spiritual. Considering his age, he can perform well.

Such a performance seems very difficult, but due to his acting experience, it is unrealistic to say that his acting skills are superior to those of the male protagonists in the other twelve movies.

Chen Jingxing had a smile on his lips and nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with Zhang Tong's statement.

"The chairman of this year's jury is Paul Morris. He was once the art director of Universal. I didn't expect this old man to be so courageous!?" Zhang Tong was a little surprised and a little happy. He turned to Chen Jingxing and said: "It seems that "Shadow of the Wind"

"It's almost out. The gift of the youngest actor in history is enough to kill this movie."

Looking at the awards at the previous Orlando Film Festival, it can be described as dividing the pork.

Theoretically speaking, Luo Chen can also be considered as a nominee for Best Actor, but in fact, the possibility of the award falling to Luo Chen is extremely slim. Compared with the leading actors in the other twelve films shortlisted for the main competition, Luo Chen's performance is really ranked first.

No number.

In the award for Best Screenplay, the biggest opponent of "Fatal Identity" is "Shadow of the Wind", but "Shadow of the Wind" is adapted from the famous work of the same name, so it is inherently inferior.

There were bursts of exclamations at the scene, the youngest actor in the history of the Orlando Fantasy Film Festival was born!

What is surprising is that the Best Actor was finally awarded to the actor who played the male protagonist Daniel in "Shadow of the Wind", a Spanish boy who was only 13 years old.

"Are we going to have no chance next?" Although Luo Chen had a smile on his face, he still asked in a nervous tone.

Moreover, "Fatal Identity" is more like a group portrait movie, with eleven personalities competing, and the male protagonist's role is not that many in terms of absolute length.

This kind of malicious speculation based on pork-sharing thinking is typical of the logic of domestic film award awards. So can this kind of speculation be used at the Orlando Film Festival across the ocean?

The award setting for the main competition unit of the Orlando Film Festival is relatively simple, including Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Screenplay, Best Director, Jury Prize and Golden Spruce Award. Films shortlisted for all awards can compete.

It can be said that no matter from which aspect, Luochen has nothing to do with the Best Actor award.

After the host came on stage, he talked about the development of fantasy films in the past year, made some prospects for the future, briefly and comprehensively commented on several surprising films screened at this film festival, and then went straight to

Entered the awarding process.

Chen Jingxing, Zhang Tong, Luo Chen and other actors hugged each other excitedly and walked towards the stage.

Chen Jingxing was also a little nervous and turned to look at Zhang Tong. As a senior producer of Huanshi.com, Zhang Tong had a deeper understanding of the film festival.

The trophy in his hand was heavy. Chen Jingxing calmed down his excitement. He looked at the dark crowd in the audience and the flashlights flashing like stars. He took two deep breaths and said with a smile in English: "Thank you, thank you to the jury for your love." Looking at it.

The crew of "Fatal Identity" are here, raising the awards in their hands

Cup: "First of all, I want to thank Huanshi.com and the crew members who fought with me in the ice and snow, Zhang Tong, Xu Wenshen, Luo Chen... You are my comrades. Without your tolerance and accommodation to me, there would be no this film.

Movie, please forgive me for being verbose, because I may not have the chance to appear on stage in the future."

After expressing his gratitude, Chen Jingxing returned to his seat amidst the applause of the audience.

All the media and filmmakers present were surprised by the bold decision of this year's jury.

So the most likely guess is that the jury didn't want "Shadow of the Wind" to win, so it gave him the best actor award.

Even looking around the world, this is the youngest actor in an international film festival whose name can be named.

According to the principle of dividing the pork, since you have already divided a piece, wouldn't there be little hope for the next step?

It really works.

Not only Chen Jingxing and Zhang Tong realized this, but the creative teams of "Moonlight Night Fantasy" and "Gate 14" were a little surprised when they realized it.

"The first award we want to present is the Best Actor." The host on the stage paused and said, "Please invite Jodie Foster to present it to us."

Soon the Best Actress award went to the heroine of the thriller film "Julia".

Chen Jingxing touched Luo Chen on his right and teased in a low voice: "It's time for your award, why aren't you nervous?"

Faced with everyone's questioning gazes, Zhang Tong thought for a moment and said: "Probably not. The Best Screenplay Award is not a heavyweight award. The three awards of the jury, director and Jin Yunshan are the highlight. If the jury wants to strike a balance,

If so, "Moonlight Night Fantasy", "Gate 14" and each of us will probably share one."

Amidst Zhang Tong's words, the jury's grand prize began to be announced.

Chen Jingxing began to pray silently to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, not praying that he could win this award, but hoping that it would be awarded to other films.

Obviously, the crews of "Moonlight Night" and "Gate 14" also thought so. The screen broadcast by NBC was also divided into three frames, focusing on Lee Jung Jae, Chen Jingxing and the director of "Gate 14" respectively.
