Chapter 388 Starlight
The hustle and bustle in the Zhuyuan Hotel continued for a long time. After the excitement and excitement passed, everyone calmed down.
Chen Zifang invited Lin Chaoyang to check in at the Zhuyuan Hotel. After completing the check-in procedures, it was already late, so Lin Chaoyang sent Ermatai and Luo Huifang out of the hotel.
"Chaoyang, thank you." Standing at the door of the hotel, Ermitai held back her words for a long time before she uttered these words.
Luo Huifang also thanked Lin Chaoyang continuously.
Lin Chaoyang said gently: "Don't be so polite. It just happened to happen today. I didn't expect it."
Luo Huifang said excitedly: "I heard that the waiter at the Zhuyuan Hotel earns two to three hundred a month. In the future, our salary will be combined, so we won't have to worry about buying a house."
Ermatai was very happy when she heard this. The two of them were still worrying about buying a house in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, in just half a day, Afang's work was solved.
The two of them can earn three to four hundred yuan a month, and they won't have to worry about getting married or buying a house in the future.
Lin Chaoyang smiled and patted Ermatai on the shoulder, "Hurry up and get the certificate. After you get married to Afang, you will transfer your household registration here. From now on, you will be the son-in-law of Shenzhen. I will come over to drink your wedding wine."
Ermatai chuckled, scratched his head, and said again: "Chaoyang, thank you."
"Okay!" Lin Chaoyang patted him.
"You must come when I get married!"
"Don't worry."
After they separated, Er Maitai and Luo Huifang rode a bicycle, both of them immersed in great joy.
Ermatai suddenly said: "I believe I didn't lie to you this time, right? Chaoyang is really a great writer since I was little!"
"You just lied to me, what else can I do? Everyone...everyone is yours." Luo Huifang said these words, her cheeks were covered with red clouds.
Ermatai laughed contentedly and pulled her to stop.
"Afang, when you enter the Zhuyuan Hotel, I will propose marriage to your father."
Luo Huifang looked into his eyes and nodded shyly.
Chen Zifang offered Luo Huifang a job, naturally because he wanted to form a good relationship with Lin Chaoyang. This good relationship may not be noticeable at the moment, but he may not know when he will be able to use it in the future.
Anyway, he doesn't need to spend any real money on it, it's a benefit without cost.
Lin Chaoyang also understood what he was thinking, so he accepted the favor as an early wedding gift to Ermatai and his wife.
After lingering in Shenzhen for another day, Lin Chaoyang set off for the port, cleared customs and arrived in Xiangjiang.
He called Li Hanxiang in advance yesterday, and after passing the customs, Li Hanxiang arranged for someone to pick him up at the hotel.
After a simple reception banquet, Lin Chaoyang returned to the room to rest.
The next day was the 3rd, and there was still one day before the awards ceremony. Lin Chaoyang went out first to buy some gifts for his family.
When he came back from shopping, there was a knock on the door as soon as he entered the room. He opened the door and saw that it was Liu Xiaoqing.
Meeting an old friend in a foreign country is a happy event.
Like Lin Chaoyang, Liu Xiaoqing also came to attend the 3rd Hong Kong Film Awards. This time she was shortlisted for the Best Actress award for her role in "Behind the Curtain".
This was the first time for a mainland actor to win something at the Hong Kong Film Awards, and Liu Xiaoqing also set a record. Therefore, when Lin Chaoyang saw her, she was particularly high-spirited and high-spirited.
The two chatted for a while, and Liu Xiaoqing said she had an interview in the evening, so she left.
On the 4th, Lin Chaoyang casually strolled downstairs of the hotel during the day. In the afternoon, Li Hanxiang came to pick him up and found that he was still wearing the Chinese tunic suit when he came. He complained: "Why are you still wearing this outfit? Anyway,
Get a suit!"
"I'm not used to wearing suits, but Chinese tunic suits are fine."
"If you are on TV, you will be laughed at for being old-fashioned. Come on, I will take you to buy a set."
Li Hanxiang hurriedly pulled Lin Chaoyang out to buy a suit, but Lin Chaoyang refused.
"If you want to buy it, you have already bought it. If you buy a suit, do you need to wear a tie? Do you need a pair of leather shoes if you wear a tie? Then you can comb your oily hair and make your hair look pink.
Forget it, forget it, I can't do these things. I'm a screenwriter, not an actor."
Seeing him like this, Li Hanxiang stopped insisting. Lin Chaoyang looked at the time and said: "It's only three o'clock now. Doesn't it mean that the award ceremony starts at half past eight? You came too early, right?"
"Do you think everyone is as rustic as you and just go out? You need to do makeup and hair."
Li Hanxiang complained about Lin Chaoyang. This time he brought a makeup artist and hairstylist to help Liu Xiaoqing style her. After all, she is also the heroine of his movie. She is nominated for the best actress this time. Her first appearance on Hong Kong TV must not be shabby.
.
"Don't you really want to grease your hair?"
Before setting off, Li Hanxiang teased Lin Chaoyang.
Lin Chaoyang pointed at his sloppy head and said sarcastically: "Do you know why your hairline moves back? It's because you use too much hair oil!"
After a few sarcastic remarks to each other, everyone got in the car together. For the award ceremony, Li Hanxiang specially found two Mercedes-Benz cars.
It is called Mercedes-Benz in the mainland and Mercedes-Benz in Hong Kong.
When Lin Chaoyang got in the car, he saw Tony Leung Ka Fai in a suit and oily hair.
"Hello Mr. Lin!"
"Hui Zai, he is about to be crowned Best Actor. What do you think?"
Lin Chaoyang started joking as soon as he got in the car, but Tony Leung couldn't laugh. There were still two hours before the award ceremony, and he was already so nervous that he couldn't speak.
"Don't be so nervous. It's just an Academy Award for Best Actor. You will win more Best Actors in the future."
It was okay if Lin Chaoyang didn't comfort him, but Liang Jiahui became even more nervous when he comforted him, and his hands trembling when he drank water.
Lin Chaoyang smiled and stopped teasing him.
The car drove all the way to the Regency Hotel in Kowloon, which is one of the earliest five-star hotels in Hong Kong. The current Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony was held in the hotel auditorium.
The photos of this year's Academy Awards have made significant progress compared to the two previous ones.
"Film Fortnightly" not only invited Sing Tao Newspapers to co-host and sponsor, but also invited Infinite TV Jade Channel to broadcast live. The crew even arranged a red carpet session before entering the venue.
The crew of "Behind the Curtain" came to attend the award ceremony, including Li Hanxiang, Lin Chaoyang, Liu Xiaoqing and Tony Leung Ka Fai. Compared with the other three people who attended the ceremony, Lin Chaoyang, who was dressed in simple clothes, was inconspicuous and just passed by the camera.
After walking through the red carpet, several people went to the rooms arranged by the hotel to rest. There was still an hour before the awards ceremony started, so the guests could enter the venue ten minutes early.
As soon as a few people arrived in the room and sat down, someone came to say hello.
The visitor's name is Yu Zheng, one of the gold medal emcees in the Hong Kong TV industry. Together with Lin Yanni, Bai Yunqin, Dina and Shi Nansheng, they are called "Hong Kong Talented Women" by the Hong Kong media.
There are many talented people and talented women in Xiangjiang. Just listen to this kind of thing.
Yu Zheng started working as a host in the film industry in 1982 and is a member of the executive committee of this year's Academy Awards. Li Hanxiang's "Behind the Curtain" is one of the favorites to win this year's Academy Awards. Yu Zheng represents the executive committee
It's considered polite to come over and say hello.
After Yu Zheng left, several more people came over to say hello, either from the organizer and executive committee, or from the crew members who were also attending the award ceremony.
Zhang Jianting, the director of "Seven Days of Love", Chen Baisheng, the editor-in-chief of "Film Biweekly"...
There are four people in the crew of "Behind the Curtain". The male protagonist is a newcomer, the female lead and the screenwriter are all from the mainland. Only Li Hanxiang is a well-known director, so most of the people who come to say hello are directed at him.
As the award ceremony was approaching, Li Hanxiang was getting ready to go to the auditorium, and the stars were shining all the way.
Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao, Brigitte Lin, Chung Chu Hong, Anita Mui, Chow Yun-fat, Yip Tong, Man Tsz-leung, Wu Ma...
Lin Chaoyang counted the stars with great interest, and he observed that Liu Xiaoqing's eyes kept looking at Brigitte Lin.
At this time, Brigitte Lin was at the peak of her beauty. When she was young, she looked pure and gorgeous in Qiong Yao's romance movies, which was unforgettable.
After coming to Xiangjiang, her temperament changed. She became more bright and elegant as a mature woman, and at the same time she was heroic. Such appearance and temperament can be said to be unisex for both men and women.
At this year's Academy Awards, she was nominated for Best Actress for "Shu Mountain", and she was a competitor with Liu Xiaoqing, so it was inevitable that Liu Xiaoqing would look at her a few more times.
In addition to the two of them, other nominees for the Best Actress in this year's Academy Awards include Ye Tong ("Seven Days of Love"), Zhong Chuhong ("Man and Woman"), and Xu Suying ("Half the Man").
The guests entered the hotel auditorium one after another and took their seats. The crew of "The Secret Service" was in the second row of the seats, very close to the stage. On the left was the crew of "Half of the World" and on the right was the crew of "A Wrong Love in Seven Days."
These two films are also the biggest competitors of "The Government Behind the Curtain" at this year's Academy Awards, and both of them have a greater chance of winning than "The Government Behind the Curtain".
This explanation has a lot to do with the development of the Hong Kong film industry in recent years. Since the late 1970s, the Hong Kong film industry has been influenced by Japanese films and the French New Wave, giving birth to its own new wave.
"Film Fortnightly" is the home base of the new wave of Hong Kong films, and the Academy Awards hosted by them have naturally become the main battlefield of the new wave of films.
In the previous two Academy Awards, New Wave filmmakers won resoundingly. As expected, New Wave filmmakers will still play an important role this year.
As for Li Hanxiang, who belongs to the old school of filmmaking, he will suffer more or less disadvantages in the competition for the Academy Awards.
At 8:30 p.m., the awards ceremony started on time. The host of this year's Academy Awards was Chung King-fai. In addition to being a host, he is also a stage actor and TV producer.
At the beginning of the award ceremony, Zhong Jinghui made some opening remarks on the stage, all in Cantonese. Lin Chaoyang half-listened and half-guessed, but he could understand roughly.
The first award was for the Best Newcomer, and the winner was Zheng Yuling.
Then Lin Chaoyang saw the tall and handsome Chow Yun-fat on the stage to accept the award on behalf of Cheng Yuling.
Li Hanxiang whispered to him that Zheng Yuling is a newcomer that TVB is currently promoting. It is said that the Best Newcomer nomination this time is very controversial, so he did not attend today, but let Chow Yun-fat, his rumored boyfriend, take the lead.
Li Hanxiang is an old man from Shaw Brothers, so he knows all about TVB's hype methods. He complained to Lin Chaoyang, "This is TVB's old routine. Let the rumored boyfriend come out to accept the award on his behalf, and you can create more hype."
.”
Listening to the gossip he said, Lin Chaoyang couldn't help but sigh.
People here in Xiangjiang played the leftovers decades ago, and in thirty or forty years these fans will still be fooled into thinking.
Mainland fans have really bad food!
