The virus is raging and people are in a state of panic.
Some of the people who open the class go to work, and those who can't open the class continue to stay at home.
The film and television industry has fallen from the cold winter to the ice age. The Spring Festival stalls are gone, the Valentine's Day stalls are also withdrawn, and the cinema business is withering.
Just today, the News came from the Hong Kong Film Awards that due to the impact of the pneumonia epidemic, this year's Academy Awards will be held as usual, only guests and winners will be invited to attend, and the red carpet may be cancelled.
The Academy Awards are held as usual, like a touch of green in the Ice Age, and a trace of passion in the sadness.
This is not the first time that the Academy Awards have been awarded.
Seventeen years ago, SARS swept the country and the Academy Awards were held as usual.
The chairman of the Hong Kong Film Awards at that time was Zhang Tongzu.
Zhang Tongzu was able to step onto the stage of history because Jackie Chan, the chairman of the Academy Awards, was too busy and asked him to act as chairman.
During his time at the helm, the Academy Awards expanded the awards landscape and fostered new forces, adding the "Best Asian Film Award" and the "Outstanding Young Director Award" (later renamed new director).
The first person to receive the Outstanding Young Director Award was Stephen Chow.
With "Shaolin Soccer", Stephen Chow won the Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor and Outstanding Young Director awards.
When holding the trophy, Zhou Xingchi said, "I am particularly happy to be able to get the youngest director award at an old age."
He was 40 years old. This is a late reward, and with Stephen Chow's status at the time, it seems that there is little need for proof of the Academy Awards. Frankly speaking, over the years, Stephen Chow has simply been a little plum in the Hong Kong film industry. The 10th, with the nomination of "Gamble Saint", lost to Zhang Guorong; the 11th, the nomination of "Truant Weilong", lost to Zeng Zhiwei; the 12th, the nomination of "Death Judge", Liang Jiahui became the film emperor; the 14th, "Domestic Ling Ling Qi" nomination, the film emperor is Liang Chaowei; the 15th, "Journey to the West" did not become the film emperor, lost to Qiao Hong. The Academy Awards made up for Zhou Xingchi, but they could not make up for Zhang Guorong.
The death of SARS and Zhang Guorong almost killed the 22nd Academy Awards.
Zeng Zhiwei, who is the emcee, also said that he was able to participate in the awards party of the Academy Awards and was infected by doctors who fought against SARS.
Hong Kong people firmly believe that the spirit of Lion Rock is to face difficulties.
The passion in sadness is the main theme of this academy award.
Zeng Zhiwei also admitted that this session of the emcee is the most difficult one.
It is necessary to boost morale and face the death of Zhang Guorong.
Just five days ago, on the annual April Fool's Day, Cheung jumped off the balcony on the 24th floor of Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong.
At the Academy Awards the previous year, he was still the guest of honor to Stephen Chow.
For most mainland audiences, Zhang Guorong is more like Cheng Dieyi, who is not crazy and does not live, a melancholy and sensitive talent actor.
In the eyes of Hong Kong people, he is the best spokesperson for Liang Zi to become a legend.
In 2005, the centenary of the birth of Chinese films, the Hong Kong Academy Awards Association selected the "Top 100 Chinese Films", and Zhang Guorong starred in 8 films, ranking first in the list.
However, legends such as Zhang Guorong also came out step by step.
Debuted was sold lard boy, filmed a third-grade film to play Jia Baoyu, singing was booed, stayed up for ten years before coming out.
Over the years, Zhang Guorong has not been thin for the Academy Awards, accompanied by many years, and knows that he has no chance of the award, and will still actively participate in the Academy Awards.
And this time, the Academy Awards want to express their debt to him.
Jacky Cheung, Andy Lau, Li Ming, Aaron Kwok, and the four kings of Hong Kong sang Cheung Kwok-wing's "Love of the Year" together.
"The smile of the past is back", but unfortunately, we can't do it again.
In the history of the Academy Awards, Zhang Guorong has been nominated a total of 8 times, and he is even harder to accompany the runner than Zhou Xingchi.
The only time he won the prize was with 1991's "Ah Fei Zheng Biography" (beating Zhou Xingchi in "Gamble Saint").
Perhaps many people can't understand that Cheng Dieyi is not worth a small golden man?
Tell a thing that you may not believe, Zhang Guorong did not get the nomination.
There's a shady scene here.
The investor of "Farewell to the King" is Hong Kong Tomson Pictures, the producer Xu Feng is Taiwanese, and the Academy Awards believe that it is not a Hong Kong film.
The Golden Horse Awards believe that most of the main creators are from the mainland and belong to a mainland film, so they rejected it to be selected as a Golden Horse. Pushing and shoving like this, the most hurt is Zhang Guorong. Contributed to the acting skills of the film emperor, but even the nominations for the Academy Awards and the Golden Horse Awards could not be obtained.
In terms of winning the award, Zhang Guorong is really distressing.
Nominated for the eighth Golden Statue Film Emperor, Zhang Guorong played a perverted killer in "Alien Space". The Academy Awards still did not give him the film emperor, and the reason seemed invulnerable:
Zhang Guorong no longer needs the proof of the Academy Awards.
Winning the prize really depends on luck.
Also starring in "Spring Breaks", Zhang Guorong and Liang Chaowei played homosexuals, dancing veneer dances and kissing. At the 17th Academy Awards, Liang Chaowei won the film emperor, and Zhang Guorong was defeated. The reason is also ironic: gay playing homosexuality is a natural performance, compared with the two, Liang Chaowei is more difficult.
At the 22nd Academy Awards, Liang Chaowei won the fourth Academy Awards.
The first three Academy Awards are all related to Wong Kar-wai.
This time, Liang Chaowei finally got rid of Wong Kar-wai and won the best actor with "Infernal Affairs".
At this year's Academy Awards, "Infernal Affairs" became the biggest winner and won 7 awards.
Liu Weiqiang proved himself, but also proved that Wang Jinghui's eyes are pearls, from a small photographer to a big director, Liu Weiqiang's life is very inspiring.
Wang Jing once said to Liu Weiqiang, who is unknown, "I am already very red", I hope you will be more red than me in the future", with this sentence, Liu Weiqiang should also be grateful to Wang Jing.
Hong Kong people love to sing "Under the Lion Rock", when the economy is depressed, Hong Kong's Financial Secretary uses it to cheer, and when sars is raging, the leader calls on Hong Kong citizens to carry forward the spirit of Lion Rock.
The virus is raging and the Academy Awards are proceeding in an orderly manner, which is a clear proof of the spirit of Lion Rock.
In 2002, Rowan, the first singer of "Under the Lion Rock", died of liver cancer. In 2004, its lyricist, Huang Xia, died of lung cancer.
The 2003 Academy Awards, everyone is remembering, is Zhang Guorong.
I believe that humanity cannot be overthrown, but there is no doubt that an era has passed and can never be copied.
