Rebirth Turn

The box office of "The Legend of Wang Xuance" in the mainland was finally fixed at [-] million, which is the consistent level of Chen Li's films.Compared with the more than one billion yuan of "Can't help", it is not enough, but the super high box office of "Can't help" has its own external factors, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a phenomenon.Of course, this does not mean that "Can't Help" is not a good movie, just because it has been shortlisted for the best film of this year's Hong Kong Film Awards is enough to prove that it is an excellent enough and highly recognized movie.

The selection of the Hong Kong Film Awards has certain regional restrictions. It must be a Hong Kong film that is publicly screened in Hong Kong for the first time to be automatically selected. At least two of the three conditions for becoming a Hong Kong film must be met. The director must be a Hong Kong film director. Hong Kong residents with permanent resident identity cards: one of the production companies must be a legally registered company in Hong Kong;These restrictions have to a certain extent prevented some Chinese-language films with good box office and word-of-mouth from participating in the selection, so compared with the more comprehensive Taiwan Golden Horse Awards, the influence of the Golden Image Awards will be slightly smaller.But in any case, the Hong Kong Film Awards, together with Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards and the Mainland's Golden Bull Awards, are the three awards for the highest achievement of Chinese-language films.

Wang Yi, the director of "Can't Help", is a native of Hong Kong, and "Can't Help" is actually a joint venture film, so naturally there is no problem of lack of qualifications.

In the shortlist for the Academy Awards announced in early February, "Can't Help" was shortlisted for seven awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Best Cinematography, among which There are two nominations for Best Actor.

It's uncommon, but not impossible, for a film to be nominated for two Best Actor or Best Actress.However, "Can't Help" is a bit special, because of its subject matter, it is doomed to miss the Best Actress award, and the wonderful performances of the two leading actors deserve this simultaneous nomination.

Before the Golden Image Awards Ceremony, Phoenix Entertainment had an exclusive interview with the two leading actors of "Can't Help": Han Yuan and Lu Yan.

Han Yuan and Lu Yan in the interview room were dressed very formally, but their postures were relaxed and casual, without the nervousness of "prospective actor".Han Yuan was a frequent visitor to the Academy Awards, and his ease is understandable; Lu Yan, as an actor who can be called a "newcomer" after debuting for three or four years, this calmness is quite rare.However, although he debuted not long ago, he is the Cannes Best Actor with a "Palme d'Or" in his hand, so it's not surprising to think about it.

After the final publicity of "Can't Help", this is the first meeting between Han Yuan and Lu Yan. Before starting the interview, the two have already chatted, asked each other about each other's recent situation, talked about the latest plan, and started A few jokes, the atmosphere is very harmonious.

Han Yuan and the reporter from Phoenix Entertainment are already old acquaintances, and they have done several interviews, so this time the reporter focused on Lu Yan.

After the photographer fiddled with it, the reporter started asking questions.

Reporter: First of all, congratulations to the two best actor nominees for the Academy Awards.According to market predictions, the two finalists have the best chance of winning the award. What kind of feelings did they have before the award?

Han Yuan answered first, he was still a little nervous.It is the first time for me to try this kind of theme, and being nominated shows that I have been recognized by everyone, and it also shows that my attempt is successful.In this way, I am already very happy. As for whether I can win the award, it still depends on fate.

Reporter: If I remember correctly, this is the 11th time that Mr. Han has been nominated for the Academy Award. He also won five or six awards before.

Han Yuan: Five times.

Reporter: The proportion of winners is very high. No wonder Mr. Han is so calm.So what about Mr. Lu, how do you feel now?

Lu Yan: I like the actor industry very much. Every time I take on a film and a role, I will try to figure it out and study it very carefully, and the same is true for "Can't Help".If you want to ask me if I want to win an award, I really want to.But it doesn't matter if you can't get it, I'm still young, I have plenty of opportunities, if this time doesn't work, next time, next time won't work, and next time.I am happy if I get it, but I have worked hard if I can’t get it, so I won’t be unhappy.

Reporter: Which one do you think has a higher chance of winning the prize?

Lu Yan said first, I hope we can win awards together.

Lu Yan and Han Yuan looked at each other and smiled.Double yellows are allowed in the Academy Awards, and there have been such experiences, but very few.

Reporter: "Can't Help" is a very good movie. I also went to see it when it was released, watched it two or three times, and bought a DVD for my collection. I like it very much.

Han Yuan & Lu Yan: Thank you for your support.

Reporter: In the film, you are a couple of lovers. I remember Mr. Han said that he did not make same-sex films because he was afraid of being affected. How do you feel now after filming?

Han Yuan made a joke, if I was a teenager, I might really be affected.When I was young, I tended to get too involved in dramas, and I almost got depressed and had to see a psychiatrist.After so many years of acting, I already know how to get out of the role.But I really like the feeling of being immersed in the play, and I am very happy to have this attempt.

Han Yuan has been famous for a long time, his current status in the entertainment industry, general gossip and rumors can't shake him at all, so he can express his thoughts more directly.In addition, Phoenix Entertainment's reports are still very original, and they will not intentionally distort or take out of context to gain attention.If it was a third-rate tabloid paparazzi, maybe the headline the next day would be "Han Yuan Claims to Fall in Love with Lu Yan, Trapped in Role".Of course, ordinary third-rate tabloids have no chance to interview Han Yuan now.

Reporter: So what about Mr. Lu?

Lu Yan smiled, and said lightly, I will not change my sexual orientation just because of a movie.

This is a sentence he once said to Qin Feng, and it is also true.If the reporter is perceptive enough, he will find that Lu Yan's sentence is a bit problematic, because the answer of ordinary people should be, I will not become gay because of a movie.But obviously, this reporter was not that keen, or didn't care, so he didn't continue to ask, but changed the subject.

Reporter: I heard that there was a male star who was voted the favorite among comrades on the Internet, and Mr. Lu was at the top of the list, far surpassing No.2.What is Mr. Lu's opinion on this?

Lu Yan: Thank you very much for your love and support. This shows that my performance has been recognized and affirmed by everyone.I will continue to work hard and repay everyone with better works.

Reporter: Now it is rumored that Mr. Han has several plans, one is to cooperate with Huang Xing in Hong Qisheng's film, and the other is to cooperate with Shen Feng in Qi Bai's film.Are you sure which one it is?

Han Yuan: Nothing has been finalized yet. Hong Qisheng's final script has not yet been finalized, and it is still in its infancy at this stage.It's the same with Qi Bai's.We all have to read the script to make a decision.

Reporter: So what about Mr. Lu?I heard that your studio is preparing to invest in a film, can you tell me what kind of film it is?

Lu Yan: The preparatory work for the film has been basically completed, and the casting will start after a while, and we will know when the time comes.

Reporter: Is Mr. Lu the default actor?

Lu Yan: Basically yes.

Reporter: Have you ever considered becoming a director yourself?

Lu Yan: Not yet.What I am doing now is to play the role of actor first, of course, now I have added a producer.As for the director, I may try it if I have the opportunity in the future, but it is not the time yet.

Reporter: Finally, can you please comment on each other.

Han Yuan: Lu Yan is a very good actor. The two films he collaborated with are both very good. He is both talented and willing to work hard.What I admire most about him is that he can get into the drama quickly and perform well. He is born to be an actor.In time, he will definitely become the best movie star.

Lu Yan: Han Yuan is one of the actors I admire the most. I am very honored to be able to work with him. I have learned a lot from him. I hope we will have the opportunity to work together in the future.

On the day of the Golden Statue Awards Ceremony, Su Mo took a day to fly to Hong Kong.Lu Yan disguised himself and went to the airport to pick him up.The weather in April has started to turn hot, and coats and hats are too ostentatious, so basically I just wear a pair of big sunglasses as a cover.Although Hong Kong is a small place, there are many celebrities. The citizens are no strangers to seeing celebrities wearing big sunglasses shopping every day. Except for a few young boys and girls who will boldly come forward and ask for autographs, there is basically nothing resistance.

After receiving the person, the two casually wandered around Kowloon.Normally, they basically don't have the chance to go shopping together, either due to time or identity.However, the two big men were not interested in shopping at first.So the two just walked around the new and old urban areas in casual clothes, tasted the local delicacies, and felt the local people's livelihood as it was filmed in Hong Kong movies.This is quite a novel experience for them.

In the middle, there were several groups of fans who recognized Lu Yan and asked for autographs. Every time at this time, Su Mo stood a little far away and waited quietly.Originally, when fans saw such a handsome guy next to Lu Yan, they were desperately trying to recall whether it was some not-so-famous star, but after thinking for a long time to no avail, they had to believe that the other party was not a star, otherwise such a good-looking And the aura is impossible to forget once you have seen it.

There were also fans who boldly asked Lu Yan who that person was. Lu Yan smiled lightly and answered "family", fans took it for granted that they were brothers. It must be because of good genes.There were also fans who wanted to take a photo together, but Lu Yan shook his head and refused, and the fans could only leave disappointed.

The fan turned around and posted a message on Weibo, "I'm so lucky, I went to Hong Kong today to play, and I saw the male god Lu Yan near Hung Hom. I asked for an autograph, but unfortunately I didn't want to take a group photo#感感". PS: The brother of the male god is also very handsome." Soon, this Weibo post was reposted by a large number of comments, and everyone's concerns were not the same.

"What? The male god is near Hung Hom. I was there just now. Why didn't I meet him? Bad luck!"

"What? When did the male god go to Hong Kong? Why don't I know."

"Otto on the right. Today is the award ceremony of the Hong Kong Film Awards. The male god Ji You has been shortlisted for Best Actor. Of course he is in Hong Kong now."

"What? Lu Yan has an older brother, I've never heard of it!"

"23333, I just noticed that he is also very handsome, these are just a few words. If the appearance can reach the level of a male god, it must be because of good family genes."

"Uh, although the temperaments are different, but the appearance is definitely not inferior to the male god. To be honest, I prefer the brother's style. At first glance, it looks like the cool president's style. It's a pity that I didn't hear the voice. If it is that low The kind that can make people's ears pregnant like a subwoofer is perfect. Ahhhhh, no, I'm going to betray the male god if I make up my mind."

"No picture, no truth, let's talk about it."

……

Before the awards ceremony started, Su Mo entered the venue first.

Lu Yan walked the red carpet with Han Yuan. When the two male gods appeared on the red carpet, the fans crowded on both sides almost broke their throats. In addition to calling "Han Yuan" and "Lu Yan", there were also Those who were called "Teacher Zhuang" and "Ji You" only had the voices of "together, together" in the end.

The reporters on both sides also kept waving at the two of them, "Look this way, look this way", "Lu Yan, Han Yuan, stop here for a while", "Here, here, let's take a photo together."

After walking through the red carpet and reaching the signature wall, various media outlets were still waiting for interviews. One of the reporters asked with a smile, "Are you two dressed like this today as a couple?"

Lu Yan is wearing a white suit tonight, with a black bow tie on the white shirt, looking young and elegant.Han Yuan is in a black suit, looking calm and restrained.Reminiscent of their characters and images in the movie, it really has a taste of couple costumes.

Han Yuan and Lu Yan smiled at each other, and replied tacitly, "It's just a coincidence."

After entering the meeting place, Lu Yan's eyes first circled the audience, and soon saw Su Mo who was sitting there quietly. Su Mo obviously also sensed his gaze, and looked up in his direction.The eyes of the two met in the air, and they lingered for a while. Lu Yan slightly lowered the corners of his eyes, and Su Mo couldn't help lowering his eyelashes. When he raised his eyes again, Lu Yan's eyes were still looking at him tenderly.

In the end, Lu Yan sat with the whole crew and didn't deliberately go to Su Mo's side.His position was further forward than Su Mo's. Although it was inconvenient to turn around frequently, he could always feel the other party's gaze, and he felt very stable in his heart.

The Best Actor award is relatively low. Among the previous awards, "Can't Help" only won one Best Supporting Actress, and the winner is Chen Yao's actor Li Xue. This is what she won in major film festivals The first award, I was so excited that I shed tears on the spot.Lu Yan looked at Li Xue's appearance and smiled slightly, and couldn't help but think of the time when he won the award for the first time, but it was a pity that although the best supporting actor award at the Baicao Festival was his first award in his life, it was a pity that at that time his The mentality is no longer young, and I can't feel the pure excitement.The Best Actor award in Cannes two years ago was already in his expectation, so it also diluted the joy of winning the award.Lu Yan did not deny that he had a deep desire for tonight's golden actor, as if this was the first affirmation of him in two lifetimes.However, as he said in the interview, it is gratifying to get it, but it is not sad to miss it. He is still young and he still has a lot of opportunities.

Immersed in his own thoughts, he applauded with the applause of the crowd, and he didn't cheer up until the award presenter for the best actor came to the stage.

The guest of honor for Best Actor is Di Hong, one of the most famous actresses in Hong Kong and the winner of two Academy Awards for Best Actress.She is the queen of comedy in Hong Kong, and her famous works and masterpieces are all comedy movies.When it is generally believed that the gold content of comedians is not as good as that of dramas, she was able to win the queen twice for her performance in comedy movies, which shows that her acting skills are very good.

One of Di Hong's hallmarks is her smile, which looks very joyful and has a talent for comedy, but it is said that this is the result of many years of practice.Although she always shows people in various bad images in movies, she is actually a beauty even in the showbiz full of beauties.

Di Hong was wearing a long black evening dress tonight, her hair was rolled up high, revealing her snow-white neck, and against the black dress she looked particularly fair and beautiful.

Di Hong walked to the stage with a smile, chatted with the master of ceremonies to brighten the atmosphere, and then began to announce the shortlist.Although each finalist knew that he was shortlisted as early as the beginning of February, the complete list was not announced until this time.

There are five nominations for the Best Actor in this year's Hong Kong Film Awards, namely Han Yuan's "Can't Help"; Lu Yan's "Can't Help"; Shen Feng's "Doomsday War"; Read "Sunrise".

Before revealing the final answer, Di Hong joked with several award winners, "Han Yuan and we are already old friends, and as an old friend for so many years, I should want you to win the award the most. But you see that you have won so many awards, and you should give young people a chance. How about this, if you win the award this time, you can treat me to dinner later; if you don’t win the award, then I Just please. Okay?"

Han Yuan, who was sitting under the stage, smiled gently, and nodded amidst the laughter at the scene.

Di Hong then smiled at Lu Yan, "Everyone who knows me well knows that I have a problem, that is, I can't walk when I see a handsome guy. Lu Yan belongs to the kind of handsome guy who can make me unable to walk. Said I really like Ji You very much. I cried when I watched the movie. To be honest, if I were younger than a teenager, maybe I would chase you. So, if you win the award tonight , just buy me a drink."

There was another burst of laughter.Hong Kong is a small place, and the old faces are the majority at the awards ceremony every year, and they are quite familiar with each other.Therefore, compared to the general awards ceremony, the atmosphere is not so serious, and the award presenters are also very open-minded, and they can say jokes without any scruples.Lu Yan nodded in agreement with a laugh.

Then Di Hong made similar jokes with Shen Feng, Chi Yuhan and Li Nian, and the tension on the scene disappeared in the continuous laughter.

After the joke, Di Hong opened the sealed letter in his hand, looked at the final result, then raised his head and said with a smile, "It seems that someone wants to buy me a drink. No.30 Best Actor in the [-]th Hong Kong Film Awards The winner is - Lu Yan!"

When the final result was reported, Lu Yan's ears suddenly buzzed, and he couldn't hear clearly for a while.After the applause sounded, Lu Yan was still sitting until Han Yuan next to him patted him, and he realized that he had won the award.Lu Yan stood up all of a sudden, shook hands with the nearest Han Yuan, Han Yuan got up slightly and hugged him, and congratulated him with a smile.

While shaking hands and hugging those who congratulated him, Lu Yan subconsciously looked for the gaze that had been watching him, and soon saw Su Mo's smile in the crowd.

Su Mo didn't come over on purpose, and he didn't react too much on the surface, but his dark and bright eyes became brighter, and the smile in his eyes seemed to overflow. He opened his mouth slightly, and said to him silently "Congratulations".

Lu Yan was so excited that his impetuous heart immediately settled down, returned him a shallow smile, turned and walked to the stage.

Di Hong waited for Lu Yan to arrive on the stage, slightly opened his arms and hugged him, and said with a smile, "Congratulations."

Lu Yan whispered "Thank you".

Di Hong temporarily acted as host for a while, and interviewed the newly-promoted Best Actor of the Academy Awards, "How does it feel to win the award?"

Lu Yan smiled slightly, "Very excited."

Di Hong laughed, "But why can't I see that you are excited?"

"Well, it's probably because of my good acting skills. I told myself in my heart, Lu Yan, no matter how excited you are, you should act as if nothing happened, and don't lose your composure too much." Lu Yan laughed.

Di Hong said, "Then you did a good job. Next, accept your trophy, and you can start to give your acceptance speech."

Di Hong smiled and took the Academy Award trophy from the box held by etiquette, and handed it to Lu Yan with both hands, and Lu Yan also took it with both hands devoutly.

Di Hong gestured "please" in the direction of the microphone, and stepped off the stage with a smile.

Lu Yan calmed down, helped the microphone, thought for a while and said slowly, "Although I told myself to be calm, I was actually very excited. This is not the first time I have won this award, but every time is a new journey , each affirmation has a weight that cannot be underestimated. I know that getting this award does not mean that I am doing better than others, but because everyone has given me more encouragement, and I will definitely be in this encouragement Keep going. There are too many people to thank, first of all, the director Mr. Wang Yi and the senior Mr. Han Yuan, thank you for giving me this opportunity, and all the staff of the crew. I am very grateful that we can get along and cooperate together During this period of time, I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate in the future. I would also like to thank all the friends who voted for me, thank you for your affirmation of me. Finally, the person I want to thank the most, I can’t say his name yet , but this name has been engraved in the deepest part of my soul."

There was already a burst of booing "Yo Yo Yo" at the scene, and those who had better friendship began to shout, "Say it, say it, say it!"

Lu Yan smiled slightly, raised the trophy, put it on his lips and kissed it lightly, his eyes passed the crowd and fell on the person sitting there quietly, the eyes met, so affectionate, a glance of ten thousand years!
