The news that Kang Jianfei won 7 grand prizes on his trip to Taipei was soon passed back to Hong Kong.
Although the Hong Kong film industry has never attached importance to art films, its attention to winning awards is no less than that of Taiwanese filmmakers.
If a newly opened film company can win the Golden Horse Awards, it will also attract a lot of attention from its Hong Kong peers.
It is really unrealistic to want Chinese-language films to win awards in Europe and the United States today, with only a few people over the past decades.
In addition to the European and American international awards, the Asian Film Festival and the Golden Horse Awards are the most valuable.
After the Asian Film Festival became an exhibition event, major Chinese film production areas such as Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore focused their attention on the Golden Horse Awards.
In the past, Hong Kong movies were often nominated by the Golden Horse Awards, but basically five or six were nominated, and only one of them ended up winning the awards, with a very low percentage of the awards.
Like Kang Jianfei, he won 6 awards at the Golden Horse Awards at one time, which is the first time in the history of Hong Kong films.
Ming Pao Weekly commented: Hong Kong films are rising at a rocket launch this year, which is not only reflected in the specific box office data, but also proves this from the perspective of Oriental DreamWorks' great gains at the Golden Horse Awards.
"Movie Biweekly" expressed some dissatisfaction with the Golden Horse Awards: In terms of film art, "The Dao Ma Dan" is no lower than "The Wrong Car".But the announced results were a bit disappointing. "The Dao Ma Dan" actually won only one Best Costume Design Award, which was obviously intentional for the Golden Horse Award.Especially in the film "The Legend of the Sword", Brigitte Lin, Cherie Chung and Rosamund Kwan, any of them are qualified to win the trophy for the Best Actress, but all three of them were not selected. The Best Actress Award was awarded to Sylvia Chang in "My Grandpa"...
Taiwanese media are also very dissatisfied. Most of them think that "The Wrong Car" won only 6 awards for 11 nominations, and there are really few trophys.
For example, the best supporting actress should be awarded to Jiang Xia in "The Wrong Car", because Jiang Xia's performance in the film is so perfect.
Kang Jianfei was amused and crying. He received several awards at the award ceremony, but he was a composer, screenwriter, producer, etc.
On the weekend after the Golden Horse Awards, the long-recorded Variety Show 100 was officially broadcast.
Since CTV had a preview, many people turned the station to stay in front of the TV, preparing to watch the TV program that Brigitte Lin participated in the recording many years later. That night, CTV's ratings jumped to a terrifying 63%.
Don’t question this number. “Variety Show 100” is the highest-rated TV show in Taiwan, with a higher rating than the TV series.
In the years since "Variety Show 100", CTV defeated all programs of Taiwan TV and China Television with a "Variety Show 100". It was not until the Hong Kong drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" that the ratings of "Variety Show 100" were surpassed by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Kang Jianfei and others recorded only one of the units of the horror ratings for this program. In just over ten minutes, the promotional effect has exceeded the efforts of the hospital merchants.
A few days later, "The Legend of the Dao Ma Dan" was officially released in Taiwan. However, the New Year was over, and many theaters were filled.
In the film, Brigitte Lin's dressing up as a woman amazed Taiwanese audience. Taiwan's "Influence" magazine commented on the film: Brigitte Lin is very lucky. As a well-known actor whose screen image has been established, she met director Kang Jianfei.In their first movie "The Royal Sister", director Kang Jianfei made a big subversion, turning Brigitte Lin, who was accustomed to being a lady and had a strong literary atmosphere, into a heroic super female policeman, and entering the Japanese and American market in one fell swoop...
With this achievement, director Kang Jianfei did not continue to make money by filming the sequel to "The Royal Sister" and instead took a look at the beginning of the Republic of China film.
In the film, Brigitte Lin’s men’s image is definitely a classic on the screen. Although this film also has the affection of children, it is not as pretentious as most romance films in Taiwan today.
The director expressed the love between the five male and female protagonists in a very intentional way, but instead focused on more friendship.
The atmosphere of children in troubled times, family, country, and hatred was created very successfully, bringing the audience to another time and space...
According to statistics, Taiwan's total box office of movies has shrunk again this year, and has been greatly outweighed by the total box office data of movies in Hong Kong.
Two years ago, the total box office of Hong Kong movies was lower than that of Taiwan.
What does this mean?
It means we are regressing.
After Bruce Lee's kung fu film became popular, everyone rushed to shoot kung fu films. As a result, more than 200 shoddy Taiwanese kung fu films could not be released within four years and could only be ruined in the warehouse.
After Liu Jiachang made a big sale in music romance films, the directors rushed to mass-produce inferior romance films, and then asked the songwriter to add interludes in it.
Qiong Yao's movies are very popular, and everyone specializes in filming three halls. The audience is now looking at such movies.
Taiwanese filmmakers should learn more from Director Kang Jianfei, and not be shoddy and follow the trend because of short-term interests.Judging from all the films of Oriental DreamWorks, this company has a very planned film production. After "Happy Ghost" and "Mr. Zombie" were sold, no matter how many people from outside followed suit and made movies of the same type, Oriental DreamWorks would make a sequel only after seven or eight months...
"Influence" is the most famous professional film magazine in Taiwan. After a review of a film, most of them talk about Kang Jianfei and Oriental Dream Factory, and they also scolded Taiwanese filmmakers.
This review caused a lot of response in the Taiwanese film industry, and the final result was that it did not play any role.
Those who make commercial films continue to follow the trend of mass production, while those who make artistic films become more and more niche, without considering the box office market at all.
The New Wave Movement in Taiwan is a little later than in Hong Kong, but it was actually formed by the New Wave Movement in Hong Kong.
Some knowledgeable people in the Taiwanese film industry clearly see that Taiwanese films are declining, while Hong Kong films are rising rapidly.
Then these people attributed the rise of Hong Kong films to the new wave of Hong Kong films. In addition, the Taiwan authorities relaxed their control over literary and artistic works, which also set off a new wave movement.
When the movement first started, the directors would take into account both parties.
Until later, those new directors made movies just to win awards, and the movies they made were in vague and made people unable to understand them. After that, Taiwanese movies died completely.
The film review of "Influence" was considered a big advertisement for "Dao Ma Dan", attracting many old directors such as Li Xing and Bai Jingrui into the cinema.
With the popularity of "The Legend of the Sword", Rosamund Kwan and Cherie Chung, who are completely unfamiliar in Taiwan, have also become household names in Taiwan.
The three dream girls packaged by Oriental DreamWorks are gradually accepted by more people, and Rosamund Kwan and Cherie Chung have been popular by Brigitte Lin.
The box office response of the movie "The Legend of the Sword" in Taiwan was much better than when it was released in Hong Kong.
It may be because of the reason why Brigitte Lin starred, or it may be that Taiwanese audiences are more accepting of artistic movies. Anyway, the box office of "The Legend of the Dao Ma Dan" is not less than that of "The Royal Sister".
Before 1981 has passed, the box office of "The Legend of Dao Ma Dan" in Taiwan has reached NT$30 million, while "The Legend of the Night" ("The Legend of the Ghost") released at the same time is very tragic, with the box office that has not exceeded the 10 million mark.
Whether it is Mai Jia, Wong Pai Ming, or the director of this movie, Tsui Hark, they are extremely depressed in the face of this situation.
They originally wanted to take advantage of the Golden Horse Award nomination by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to take the opportunity to release it in Taiwan to earn box office, but they didn't expect Kang Jianfei to have the same abacus.
After the two movies crashed, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was directly hit by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and became paralyzed.
……
In the conference room of New Art City, several giants were smoking cigarettes to discuss the company's next drama.
Sylvia Chang felt really uncomfortable by the smell of smoke. She stood up and pushed the window open. Suddenly, a cold air poured in, causing everyone to fight a cold war.
Huang Baiming asked: Does anyone know what movie Kang Jianfei will be in the New Year?
Mai Jia said: I asked about it from Princess Jin Li. Oriental DreamWorks will release an art film "The Story of Hu Yue" recently.In addition, DreamWorks has two more dramas being filmed, one is "The City Tour" and the other is "The Young Slayer".Among them, "The Story of Hu Yue" and "The Horse of the City Tour", the male and female protagonists of these two dramas are Chow Yun-fat and Cherie Chung.
Shi Tian immediately reacted: It seems that Kang Jianfei is preparing to promote Chow Yun-fat and Chung Chu-hong.
Huang Baiming suddenly said: Do you think our New Art City should also be a newcomer?
Since its founding, several bosses have basically been acting as actors, screenwriters, directors and producers. In addition, they are invited to act as famous actors.
For example, "Best Partner" is a big hit this time, but among the three starring actors, Mai Jia is a shareholder of the company, Chang Ai Jia is an executive of the company, and Xu Guanjie is a long-standing freelance actor, and he has not played any role in supporting newcomers.
New Art City has been established for more than a year, and so far, there are not many signed actors under its command.
Mai Jia nodded and said: It’s time to sign a few actors with potential, but this matter is not urgent now. The most important thing is to finalize the New Year’s show.
Huang Baiming said: That's why I asked Kang Jianfei what kind of play he played in the New Year.We must not collide with his type. "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was overwhelmed by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in Taiwan. This is still the case where the genres are different.
Shi Tian said: What do he do to take pictures?Our strength is to do comedy. As long as we make good use of our comedy, the box office will be guaranteed.
Mai Jia nodded and said: Yes, Shi Tian’s statement makes sense.Actually, I already had an idea in my mind. Who still remembers the movie "Brothers in the Dead" in the 1960s?
Huang Baiming asked in surprise: Are you planning to remake "Brothers Difficult"?
