The first award was for the best short film, and the presenters were Guo Caijie and Ke Zhendong.
It was won by young mainland director Zhang Siqing for "Scavengers".
Then comes Best Newcomer.
"The winner of the 49th Golden Horse Awards for Best New Actor is Qi Xi, "The Mystery of the Floating City"."
"Mystery in the Floating City" is Qi Xi's first big-screen work starring in "Mystery in the Floating City". She appeared without makeup in "Mystery in the Floating City" and played the role of a mistress who interferes with other people's feelings.
She won the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer in her first film, and her performance was eye-catching.
Qi Xi came on stage to receive the trophy, and his first words were: "The trophy is so heavy."
Liu Yifei applauded in the audience and murmured: "I haven't won the Best Newcomer Award yet."
"Haha, I haven't taken it either." Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile.
Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at him, then became angry and punched him.
"The machine is taking pictures."
"The machine slaps you and you say something mean."
Qi Xi was delivering an acceptance speech on stage at this time. The machine was not facing the audience, and there was no footage of the two of them in the live broadcast.
Qi Xi thanked the judges, director Lou Ye, the crew, and finally her husband Song Ning.
"Isn't her husband the Magic King Chuanjun of Guangu?" Zhang Yuanjun was puzzled, but then he figured it out, "Oh, it turns out he was divorced."
Then, the two nominees for Best Actor and Best Actress this year, Zhang Xiaoquan and Zhang Rongrong, took the stage to present the Best Costume Design and Best Art Design Awards.
The crew of "Her" got off to a good start.
"Best Art Design of the 49th Golden Horse Awards, Huo Tingxiao, "Her"."
Huo Tingxiao stood up, shook hands and hugged his colleagues from the "Her" crew. Xu Anhua, Zhang Yuanjun, Liu Yifei and others applauded him and sent him to the stage to receive the award.
Huo Tingxiao took the trophy and said happily: "Thank you to all the judges, director Xu Anhua, and colleagues on my team, and thank you to everyone who has worked hard for "Her". Thank you."
Then Niu Chengze and Peng Yuyan took the stage to present the Best Cinematography and Best Supporting Actor awards.
The two guests got into an awkward situation on the stage. Niu Cheng adjusted the microphone and said to Peng Yuyan: "Eddie has performed well this year."
"Thank you, Brother Dou."
"Eddie, do you know why the conference asked you to award the best photography award?"
"have no idea."
Niu Chengze said: "I don't know either. There are some shortlisted ones."
The director reacted quickly, immediately took the shots, and then switched to the big screen to play the shortlisted films.
This is not an own goal, nor is it a mistake, but if the award presenters can correct the words in advance, the effect should be better.
"Her" was also shortlisted for Best Cinematography, but unfortunately, the final award went to "Detective Hunter Chang".
When the supporting actor was announced, the two went through the embarrassing scene again.
Niu Chengze: "The next step is to find the best supporting actor. Eddie has performed well this year."
"Thank you, Brother Dou."
"Do you know why the conference asked you to award the best photography award?"
"I'm not sure about this."
Niu Chengze said: "I know very well. Because I have signed up for you to compete for this award." After speaking, he smiled and patted Peng Yuyan on the shoulder.
Peng Yuyan said: "Brother Dou, didn't you sign up yourself?"
Niu Cheng was stunned on the spot and coughed dryly. This burden was not good. Only a few people laughed: "I won't tell you, but there are some shortlisted ones."
"White Deer Plain", Wu Gang
"Girlfriend and Boyfriend", Zhang Shuhao
"Vulgar Comedy", Cheng Chung-kee
"The Season of Migratory Birds", Zhuang Kaixun
"The Gorgeous Queen", Du Wenze.
Niu Chengze opened the envelope and read: "Congratulations to Zheng Zhongji for "Vulgar Comedy"."
Cheng Chung-kee said in Mandarin on the stage that he had never expected to win the award and was very surprised.
Zheng Zhongji speaks Mandarin very well, and his Hong Kong accent is basically indiscernible.
Afterwards, the two hosts came on stage to review the movies that had the best box office in the three places across the Taiwan Strait this year.
On the Mainland side, of course, it's "Painted Skin 2". Huang Bo also mentioned "33 Days of Love", saying that "33 Days of Love" has a low cost and high returns, and can be called "small soldiers making big contributions."
Zeng Baoyi took over the topic and brought out the video of "small soldiers making great achievements" in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Especially the Bay Island film "Array", which was shortlisted for Best Director tonight, also has a low cost and high return. Huang Bo asked what "Array" meant, and Zeng Baoyi explained it, and then brought out the next performance, which is the array performance. .
Taking advantage of the performance, Liu Yifei and her assistant Cindy went to the bathroom.
When Liu Yifei came back, she said: "There are so many people smoking in the bathroom, they are so intoxicated. You are not allowed to smoke in the future, otherwise you will not enter my door."
In the entertainment industry, there are either people like Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei who don't smoke at all, or people like Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin who are heavy smokers. There is no middle ground between smoking and not smoking.
"Don't worry, I won't smoke."
As soon as he finished speaking, the show ended and the award guests Yang Youning and Chen Yihan came on stage.
Awarded for Best Sound Effects and Best Editing, "Her" once again lost to "Hunter Chang" in the editing award.
Then, Jay Chou and Gui Lunmei came on stage, and the reunion of Lu Xiaoyu and Ye Xianglun did not arouse cheers from the audience. Jay Chou said that he wanted them to be more humorous backstage to heat up the atmosphere of the venue, because "everyone looked very serious before."
But the jokes they told were not funny enough and had no effect.
The two presented awards for Best Documentary and Best Supporting Actress.
Both awards were won by mainland filmmakers, with Liang Jing winning the Supporting Actress Award.
Then, Su Youpeng and Sui Tang presented two screenplay awards. In order to complete the tasks that Jay Chou and Gui Lunmei had not completed, the two actually "acted" on the stage. Sui Tang leaned on Su Youpeng's chest and acted coquettishly, which scared Su Youpeng. Don't even dare to move.
The effect is okay.
The Best Adapted Screenplay went to Bao Jingjing of "Thirty-Days of Love". The little girl was so excited and surprised that she was incoherent on stage. She said that she only wrote this story after quarreling with her boyfriend for a few days, and she didn't expect to win the award.
The whole crowd laughed.
"Best Original Screenplay," Su Youpeng took out the envelope, ""Her", Damien Chazelle, David Seidler, Zhang Yuanjun, congratulations."
This is considered an unpopularity. Before the conference, there was speculation that the original screenwriter would be given to "The King".
Zhang Yuanjun hugged his wife and kissed her on the face. He stood up and hugged Director Xu Anhua and other colleagues.
The audience burst into enthusiastic cheers and applause.
Neither Damien Chazelle nor David Seidler came to the Golden Horse Awards. Zhang Yuanjun went on stage alone to win three Golden Horse trophies.
The trophy was indeed very heavy. Zhang Yuanjun had to put the trophy on the host stage temporarily before delivering his acceptance speech:
"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. The idea for the story "Her" originally came from my brother. He was studying computers in the United States at the time. He told me a lot of computer things. I couldn't understand the specific scientific knowledge, but these things were all Inspired me to write the story of "Her". Thanks to Damien Chazelle and David Seidler, they are the biggest contributors to the script of "Her", but I will not send the trophy to them because I am a One person wants to monopolize three screenwriting awards.”
This clever move was good and everyone laughed.
"Of course a good script is not enough. I would also like to thank director Xu Anhua. The beauty of her shots was something we didn't expect when we wrote the script. She perfected the script with her shots. I would like to thank my colleagues on the crew. The success of "Her" is the result of everyone's joint efforts. Results. Of course, I also want to thank the heroine of "Her", my wife Liu Yifei, for her support in life and her wonderful performance in the movie. Thank you."
Zhang Yuanjun bowed and stepped down, winning applause from the audience.
Zhang Yuanjun entered the backstage holding three Golden Horse trophies. The reporters had been waiting in the interview area for a long time.
Zhang Yuanjun handed the trophy to the staff for temporary holding and calmly accepted interviews with reporters.
"The audience knows you more as an actor. Now that you have won the screenwriting award, do you have any special feelings?"
"I'm very excited, because people know me more as an actor, and I really didn't expect to win an award. I don't dare to take credit. Damien Chazelle and David Seidler are the big contributors. I I just got a prize on their heels."
"Having won the screenwriting award this time, will you devote more energy to screenwriting in the future?"
"It depends on timing and inspiration. It's not often that you come across good stories. As long as you want to write, you will pick up the pen and write. But I still focus more on acting and family life."
Zhang Yuanjun was interviewed for twelve minutes backstage, and was not let go by the reporters until his assistant urged him to leave. (End of chapter)
