Most Media Watched Films + Most Media-Focused Directors:
Huo Meng's "Passing Zhaoguan", a rural road film with a heart
The big winner "Passing Zhaoguan" is a typical work of strength: there is no big star, the protagonist is a grandfather over seventy years old and a grandson who is changing his front teeth; the story in the film is unhappy and flows quietly; it is even interpreted in dialects throughout the whole process... But it is such a film that firmly grasps the hearts of the judges and obtains a high score unanimously from the jury.
△ Zhao Wei presented the award to Huo Meng, the director of "Passing Zhaoguan".
The story of "Passing Zhaoguan" can be told in one sentence: during the summer vacation, Grandpa took his grandson who wanted to go out to play and traveled thousands of miles to visit his old friends. One old and one young, an electric motorcycle, an unforgettable midsummer memory. Director Huo Meng said when he came to the stage to accept the award: "The film was released on May 20. Receiving such an award makes me feel as if the vitality of the film has not ended with the next screening, but has just begun. ”
The story in the film is adapted by Huo Meng based on his grandfather's experience. The entire crew, from the actors to the staff, only three people have received professional training in film, Huo Meng said, "Passing zhaoguan" can be filmed, to "thank the brothers in the hometown, thanks to the executive director and cinematographer who have a brotherly relationship with me." The "film dedicated to Grandpa" costs only 400,000 yuan — nevertheless, Mr. Huo said, the money was also made by his brothers on loan to themselves.
△ The "honorary words" and "suggestions" written by the jury to director Huo Meng.
The "actor" who plays the grandfather in the film is the 78-year-old Yang Taiyi, who has no acting experience, and plays the open-minded and simple grandfather as a convincing, and has won the special honor of the jury of the media attention unit, which is well deserved. In order to play this role of "riding a motorcycle to the world", Yang Taiyi's old man personally went to the battle to learn to ride a motorcycle, but when he first tested riding, he encountered a rollover, which made the entire crew scratch their hearts.

It is worth mentioning that Li Yunhu, a child who plays a grandson in the film, received a nomination for the best newcomer actor, although he lost in the end, it is enough to see that "Passing Zhaoguan" is a good work with a heart, heart and warmth.
The actor who has attracted the most media attention
Yue Yunpeng: I will not make bad movies in the future
Over the years, Yue Yunpeng, "Little Yue Yue", has played many screen roles, but there are only a few who are acclaimed.
But this time, he became the winner of the "most media-focused actor" without suspense.
What made XiaoYueyue win the award was a new film called "Rat Bile Hero", which will be released in the summer. In the film, he plays a timid little brother of the Green Dragon Gang, who plays a role that is heavy and has many tricks: he has to pursue the goddess, face the big brother, play undercover and enter the heavens and the earth, and stage a "divisive plan" to destroy the enemy in one fell swoop. Xiao Yue Yue withstood the pressure and played this cowardly, amorous, and somewhat clever character in a clear layer and made people laugh. Xiao Yueyue, who "made rapid progress", defeated Tian Yu, Hu Jun and others who were also nominated, and got this heavy trophy.
In his speech, Xiao Yueyue was quite emotional, he said: "This is my first film emperor (award). I didn't expect to get an award for a movie, I didn't expect..." But in the blink of an eye, I said, "No, I lied, I often dream of it (taking the award myself)." ”
As he spoke, he put away his smiling face and moved his true feelings: "Before, in order to make money, I made any film and took over any role, and then I reflected on it, until this time, I seriously played a role that was very similar to myself... I really can't make bad movies anymore! ”
