Dreams of the Fragrant River

After they were seated separately, Guan Zhilin leaned on Kang Jianfei and whispered, "That Huang Yulang is not a good person, his eyes are always squinting at other people's chests. (First appearance

Instead of being jealous, Kang Jianfei smiled happily: "Don't worry, you're not the type he likes. Huang Yulang is dating Ni Shibei now, and he obviously likes the Jade Girl type."

"Am I a beautiful girl!" Guan Zhilin pouted when she saw that Kang Jianfei was not nervous at all, "I see that you don't have me in your heart at all, and you are thinking about those fox spirits."

Kang Jianfei patted the back of Guan Zhilin's hand and coaxed: "Okay, don't be angry, you see, I have left Qingxia and Aunt Hong, and I will come to the award ceremony with you."

As soon as Lin Qingxia and Zhong Chuhong were mentioned, Guan Zhilin felt a pressure that a man would be taken away. When the three of them were filming "Dao Ma Dan" together, the sisters had a good relationship, but now they basically don't take the initiative to contact each other. The reason is because there is a Kang Jianfei in the middle.

Lin Qingxia and Zhong Chuhong have developed very smoothly in the film industry in recent years, and they are firmly seated in the top two positions of Hong Kong actresses, while Guan Zhilin has been fishing for three days and two days in the net. .

Invisibly, Guan Zhilin felt that Lin Qingxia and Zhong Chuhong were compared, so she took advantage of Kang Jianfei to star in a movie some time ago.

Zhong Chuhong also won a Best Actress nomination this time, and was sitting with Xu Anhua, Zhou Runfa and Zhang Guorong at this time. For Kang Jianfei's fascination, Zhong Chuhong is also quite distressed many times, but she always makes a decision to break up.

"Why are the two seniors Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian here?" Zhong Chuhong turned her head to look at Kang Jianfei, but she saw two very familiar old faces.

Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian are both women, leading figures in Hong Kong's opera and film circles. Almost all Hong Kongers over the age of 30 don't know them.

Zhou Runfa also felt very strange, the two opera masters have long since retired, and only occasionally came out to sing and sing, or made a cameo appearance in a movie. Why did they come to the Academy Awards today?

"Maybe it's a special guest of honor." Zhou Runfa guessed.

Zhang Guorong was not surprised at all. He smiled and said, "The two of them didn't come to present the award, they were specially invited by the organizing committee to receive the award."

"What award? They didn't make a movie last year." Zhong Chuhong asked.

"Lifetime Achievement Award," Zhang Guorong said, standing up suddenly, "it's almost time, I'm going to the backstage to prepare."

The appearance of Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian not only caused Zhou Runfa and Zhong Chuhong, but many of the guests at the scene were whispering.

Chen Bosen looked at the seat below and said to Shu Qi: "This year's Academy Award nominations are a bit outrageous, and tomorrow's newspapers will probably write it all over again."

"Yeah, it's definitely going to be messed up again." Shu Qi said with a headache.

Only in terms of box office totals. Today, the Hong Kong film industry is a tripartite trio of DreamWorks, Golden Harvest and Art City. This year's Academy Awards nominations are dominated by DreamWorks. Only two or three films were shortlisted for Jiahe and Xinyicheng. Such a huge difference really makes people doubt the fairness of the Academy Awards. Who is the organizer of the Academy Awards?

"Phoenix Television has become a subsidiary of Oriental Culture and Entertainment Group, and has a closer relationship with DreamWorks. Next year's Academy Awards must not be hosted by Phoenix Television anymore." Shu Qi said seriously. Although Kang Jianfei has never been involved in the selection of the Academy Awards, he is far more lovely than any sponsor, but in order to make the Academy Awards bigger, Shu Qi still has to let the Academy Awards avoid the suspicion of black-box operations.

"Will he agree?" Chen Bosen asked.

Shu Qi said in a firm tone, "We must talk about whether we are willing or not. Otherwise, in the eyes of the outside world, the Academy Awards will become more and more like a toy from DreamWorks."

Among the three giants in the Hong Kong film industry this year, only Kang Jianfei attended the awards ceremony as a guest, and neither Golden Harvest nor the head of Xinyicheng came.

...

After a short wait, the awards ceremony finally officially started.

The host of the ceremony did not show up immediately. The stage was pitch black, and suddenly a figure walked to the front of the stage with the lights amid the drumming.

"The bright moon shines on the seashore

Thousands of miles of silver flow, and Yuyu is dust-free"

Suddenly singing came from the stage, the tune seemed to be Cantonese opera but not authentic. But listening to the voice, I knew it was Zhang Guorong singing.

"The fragrance of flowers drifts close

The night is charming, and the dream is also charming”

Another figure came on stage, and then sang the lyrics of Zhang Guorong, but last year, it sold more than 400,000 copies of the album, which shocked Anita Mui in the Hong Kong music circle.

"Hahaha……"

There was a burst of relaxed laughter from the audience, but it was Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui, both wearing Cantonese opera costumes, while singing and winking on the stage.

"*Add love

The evening breeze is gentle, the flowing water sings

Pleasant night is really addicting

Dancing with each other, like clouds chasing the moon

How much laughter into song rhyme

 …”

Following the beautiful singing of Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui, Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian in the audience couldn't help but harmonize with the tune, closing their eyes and playing the beat in intoxication.

After the song was sung, there was thunderous applause in the theater. Ren Jianhui, who was wearing a men's suit, opened his eyes and said, "Sister Fairy, is this the tune of "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon"?"

"Brother Hui, it's the tune of "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon", but with a hint of pop song flavor," Bai Xuexian wiped her face with a handkerchief and praised, "But the lyricist is good, and the lyrics he wrote are very good. It has a classic feel.”

At this time, the lights on the stage were bright, but Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui, who were wearing Cantonese opera costumes, did not step down. Zhang Guorong took the lead and said: "Today is the award ceremony of the 4th Hong Kong Film Awards. When it comes to Hong Kong films, the genre of opera films cannot be avoided."

Anita Mui replied: "Yes, it's just 80 years of history from "Dingjun Mountain" in 1905."

Zhang Guorong: "80 years have passed in a flash."

Anita Mui: "This year is both the 80th birthday of Chinese films and the 80th birthday of Chinese opera films."

Zhang Guorong: "When it comes to Hong Kong opera films, I think two familiar names will immediately pop up in everyone's mind."

Anita Mui: "The first award presented by the Academy Awards tonight is the Lifetime Achievement Award for Opera Films."

Zhang Guorong: "There are special guest presenters, Mr. Kang Jianfei came to the stage to announce the winners and present the awards!"

Before that, the Academy Awards had promoted that this year was the 80th birthday of Chinese-language films. Many people also expected the awards ceremony to come up with new ideas, but they didn't expect it to be so exciting at the beginning.

"Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon" is an orchestral folk music composed by Ren Guang and Nie Er in the 1930s. In fact, it was first seen in Cantonese music scores in the Qing Dynasty. Er and the two musicians revised, standardized and organized them to be more charming.

Since it was recorded in the 1930s, "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon" has various versions with lyrics, and there are seven or eight versions in Cantonese. Bai Xuexian and Ren Jianhui naturally sang it.

And Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui sang "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon" at the opening, combining Cantonese opera with popular styles. Compared with the previous versions, it is both innovative and nostalgic, which is really eye-catching.

The opening of the song "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon" already makes people feel the sincerity of the awards ceremony, which is obviously made to celebrate the 80th birthday of Chinese-language films.

As for the two opera actors who are about to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award, everyone has guessed who they are, so Kang Jianfei didn't speak after he took the stage, and there was another round of applause from the audience.

"I'm very happy and honored to be able to serve as the presenter today to provide the Lifetime Achievement Award for the two film industry seniors," Kang Jianfei said politely in public. The imprint of opera, so today we specially prepared two trophies for the two opera masters to celebrate the 80th birthday of Chinese-language films, and let me send the most sincere respect to the two opera masters. Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian are invited. A master came to the stage to accept the award!"

"Clap clap clap..."

The applause this time was extraordinarily enthusiastic, as if the sound waves could pierce the ceiling of the theater.

Kang Jianfei picked up two trophies from the tray and delivered them to the two old ladies, Ren Jianhui and Bai Xuexian.

Bai Xuexian didn't know what to say to the microphone. After thanking everyone, she said to Ren Jianhui, "Brother Hui, tell me."

Ren Jianhui has always been a woman disguised as a man. She bowed first, and then said, "Thank you for the recognition of the Golden Statue Award, and thank you for your support, so that my sister and I won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Taiping Theatre. For decades, at this Taiping Theatre, Xianmei and I have performed at least hundreds of Cantonese operas, and our drama films are often shown here. Now standing on this stage again, there is a feeling of a lifetime, as if I Or the Cantonese opera student who could sing and dance 30 years ago..."

Ren Jianhui was old, and he had a lot of memories and emotions. He talked for five or six minutes in one breath. The director of the awards ceremony was so anxious that he ran to the edge of the stage and gave Kang Jianfei a wink.

Many people present grew up listening to the two old ladies' plays. For example, Zhang Guorong has been obsessed with Ren and Bai since he was a child, and often skipped classes to go to see the two old ladies singing. At this time, hearing Ren Jianhui's award-winning speech was also very emotional~www.wuxiaspot .com~ But Kang Jianfei couldn't let this guy go any further. He quietly came to Bai Xuexian and whispered, "Senior Bai, it's almost time."

Bai Xuexian immediately understood and interjected, "Ah, Brother Hui, you've made another mistake. Once you start talking, you don't stop. If you continue talking, it will be almost dawn."

There was a burst of kind laughter from the audience, Ren Jianhui finally stopped talking, and finally asked: "Which lyricist wrote the lyrics of "Caiyun Chasing the Moon" sung by Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui just now?"

Kang Jianfei smiled modestly.

"As expected of a talented person from Kangda," Ren Jianhui asked, "I wonder if this song can make me sing with Fairy Sister?"

"Of course you can, let's just make a record for the two seniors." Kang Jianfei's mind turned quickly, and he recorded a record for Bai Xuexian and Ren Jianhui, who had been retired for nearly 20 years. With the influence of the two in the hearts of the older generation in Hong Kong, coupled with the singing version of Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui, the fan base runs through the age of 8 to 80, and it is strange that the sales of the album do not explode.
