On January 29, 2024, the 11th National Congress of the Chinese Film Association was successfully held in Beijing, and the latest leadership of the association was announced.
Among them, some people can be said to be well-deserved, but the election of others is doubtful, and some even question whether the arrangements for this selection are appropriate.
So, who exactly is there to be doubted about and whether they are worthy of their new role?
In recent years, China's economy has been booming, and all walks of life are thriving.
As an important pastime for people, the film industry has attracted much attention in recent years.
Recently, the latest national congress of the film industry came to an end in Beijing, attracting many heavyweights in the film and television industry. The composition of the leadership of the new Film Association that has attracted the most attention is undoubtedly the composition of the new film association.
This change has sparked a lot of heated discussions.
The meeting successfully adopted the work report and revised the "Articles of Association of China Film Association", and Chen Daoming was re-elected as the chairman of the Film Association, which is the second time he has held this position since replacing Li Xuejian in 2018.
Chen Daoming's re-election undoubtedly shows his outstanding strength. As the core of the China Film Association, we are committed to strengthening the political and ideological guidance of cinema artists, so as to improve the ideological and moral quality, cultural literacy and professional level of filmmakers and film workers.
The legendary experience of going from a family of traditional Chinese medicine to a powerful faction on the stage Chen Daoming, who was born in 1955, although he came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine, his enthusiasm for stage plays has not diminished.
Since 1971, Chen Daoming has devoted himself to the stage study of Tianjin People's Art Theater.
Even in the first seven years, he often played the role of a "dragon" without a single line, but he still devoted himself wholeheartedly to the role-playing.
Until 1978, when he was admitted to the ** Drama Academy, Chen Daoming successfully studied and finally made his debut in 1981 with the graduation drama "Innocent Sinners".
This is exactly what Chen Daoming has stepped onto the stage from a family of traditional Chinese medicine, and has realized the legendary transformation from a "dragon set" to a powerful faction with practical actions and unremitting efforts.
Chen Daoming's stage performance experience laid a solid foundation for his later success.
He has not only played important roles in many TV series and movies, but also launched his own *** and singles.
Needless to say, Chen Daoming's influence in the industry is not as numerous as before, but the characters he has created are still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
With his excellent acting skills and excellent works, Chen Daoming has won a number of awards, including the 2022 New Era International Film Festival Golden Yanghua Award for Outstanding Contribution to 100 Filmmakers.
Chen Daoming, a veteran artist with rich experience and high prestige in the industry, once again won the honor of chairman of the Film Association, which is well deserved.
At this meeting, in addition to announcing Chen Daoming's re-election as chairman, the list of vice chairmen was also announced, but the selection of some of them was quite surprising.
Chen Daoming was successfully re-elected as the chairman of the Film Association, but the list of vice chairmen has undergone some changes.
This year's vice-chairmen include Yu Dong, Wang Jian'er, Yin Hong, Deng Guanghui, Andy Lau, Wu Jing, Zhang Ji, Guo Fan, Huang Bo and Huang Xiaoming.
Among them, Jackie Chan and Zhang Hanyu, who attracted much attention last year, were not selected, and were replaced by Guo Fan, who has emerged in recent years, and Huang Xiaoming, who was unexpectedly surprised.
Guo Fan's rise to prominence in the Chinese film industry stems from one of his masterpieces, The Wandering Earth. This movie not only has a compact plot and realistic special effects, but also makes the audience full of expectations for the future of Chinese science fiction films.
Later, Guo Fan launched this sequel, which was hailed as "the hope of Chinese science fiction films", which once again caused a boom in cinemas and fully demonstrated his filmmaking talent.
It can be said that Guo Fan is a very powerful filmmaker.
However, during the production of "The Wandering Earth", he also encountered many difficulties.
The funding problem is the biggest problem, but fortunately, Wu Jing reached out at a critical moment to help Guo Fan complete the work and release it smoothly.
And in the latest list of vice presidents of the Film Association, we see many familiar faces, such as Andy Lau.
As one of the former "Four Heavenly Kings", Andy Lau's development can be called comprehensive, not only has achieved good results in movies and TV series, but also has a unique position in the music world.
Andy Lau's first Golden Horse actor honor in his acting career can be traced back to 2004's "Infernal Affairs 3", when he not only won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, but also won the Academy Award for Best Actor.
Until 2018, he was invited to be a jury member at the International Oscars, and last year he won the Special Contribution Award at the Toronto International Film Festival.
From the beginning of his acting career, Andy Lau has always devoted himself to his work, and he has always maintained a humble and polite attitude towards both the audience and fans.
Many people in this list deserve their names, but Huang Xiaoming's name appears in this ranks, which makes people feel a little unexpected.
Huang Xiaoming, who debuted in 1998, was successfully nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actor in 2009 with "The Wind", and then won three awards in 2013 with "Chinese Partner", the Golden Rooster, Huabiao and the Hundred Flowers Award, and his acting career can be said to have reached its peak.
However, since 2008, Huang Xiaoming has been caught in a ** turmoil, one of the reasons is that a lyric "not at all" in his song "One World One Dream" was heard as "too troublesome" because of the accent problem.
This made Huang Xiaoming's reputation decline for a while, and he went from the limelight to the extreme to the controversy.
Despite being under pressure due to height controversy, Huang Xiaoming's strength, capital and connections have always been recognized, so he is respectfully called"Yellow Sect Master"。His wedding of the century with Yang Ying fully proves his status and influence in the entertainment industry.
In 2019, Huang Xiaoming's performance in "Chinese Restaurant" sparked heated discussions.
Because Yang Zi caught her finger, he offered to let her go to the hospital, but Yang Zi thought it was okay.
Huang Xiaoming's classic line "I don't want you to think, I want me to feel" instantly aroused public disgust, making people think that he is no longer the charming and domineering president he once showed, but has become greasy.
However, it was later discovered that Huang Xiaoming is not as domineering and greasy as in front of the camera, he is a humble person, and most importantly, he is good at listening to the advice of others.
Huang Xiaoming believes that the audience's criticism and opinions are actually a spur, and he has been listening and reflecting.
In order to get rid of oiliness, Huang Xiaoming actively exercised and adjusted his diet, and even when he participated in "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves", people were surprised to find that he, who was once slightly greasy, seemed to have become a different person.
Huang Xiaoming not only has acting skills, but is also willing to accept opinions, which has allowed him to regain public recognition and become popular again. He was elected as the vice president of the Film Association, which also shows the festival's recognition of his strength.
There is reason to believe that his future will be brighter.
At the beginning of 2023, Zhang Yi successfully won the recognition of the public with the TV series "Hurricane" starring him, which made him once again attract attention after acting silently for a long time.
Although some people questioned that he only won the Best Actor award last year too late, the actor, who also won a Grand Slam, has always insisted on a down-to-earth performance, and unlike Huang Xiaoming, he has never fallen into any negative **.
From 2006's "Soldier Assault" to the later "My Regiment Commander, My Regiment", Zhang Yi's characters are all loyal and honest soldiers, which may be inseparable from his own military career.
He integrated his true feelings into the character and deeply touched the hearts of the audience.
However, at the 11th National Congress of the China Film Association, although Zhang Yi has won the actor Grand Slam, he is not the chairman of the conference like Huang Xiaoming, but only a member of the council.
Although Zhang Yi and Huang Xiaoming are only one year apart, Huang Xiaoming's acting career is nearly five years earlier than Zhang Yi.
They are all Grand Slam winners, Huang Xiaoming achieved this achievement in 2020, and also won the Hundred Flowers Best Actor twice.
In addition, he is the youngest winner. Although some of Huang's awards were met with some skepticism at the time, his acting skills were impeccable, especially after he listened to the advice to go to the oil successfully.
Zhang Yi's works in recent years are mostly decent police characters, and the form is somewhat simple.
Despite the character's different personalities, the overall image is similar.
The villain role played by Zhang Yi in "Man Jianghong" last year was impressive, but other characters could not avoid aesthetic fatigue.
Whether it is Huang Xiaoming or Zhang Yi, they are both powerful actors, as long as they continue to shine in my country's film industry, no matter what position they hold, they may lead filmmakers to new heights.
After the announcement of this list, not only Huang Xiaoming and Zhang Yi aroused heated discussions, but the selection of a new generation of idol stars into the council was also widely concerned.
But the audience's eyes are bright, and they clearly know the acting skills and achievements of each actor.
However, as long as we are united, we will definitely be able to promote the development of China's film industry.
