He is currently filming a new movie in Germany and asked his wife Carina Lau to accept the award on his behalf while wearing a huge lobster necklace. He delivered an award-winning speech remotely, a childishly naive The smile is impressive.
There is no doubt that Tony Leung is capable enough to win the trophy.
However, compared to his previous awards for Best Actor at the Academy Awards for "Chungking Express", "Happy Together", "In the Mood for Love", "Infernal Affairs" and "2046", this time he won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his new work " "Goldfinger" won the award. This work, whose reputation and box office were not ideal, seemed much weaker.
Especially among the male actors shortlisted this time, Huang Zihua, who was shortlisted for "The Vengeful Lawyer", and Lin Baoyi, who was nominated for "Under the Sun", both presented sincere works that have been in the industry for decades, and they were all watching the ceremony in the audience. In the end, they all ran with me, which seemed a bit overwhelming.
In Cherry's eyes, 58-year-old Lin Baoyi has really become the "legacy" of the Academy Awards this time.
He was expected to win nothing in the end. At the age of 58, he was shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best Actor. He announced through the media early in the morning that if he could not win the trophy, he hoped that the audience would not be sad because he was already satisfied.
He shows enough humility as the volume of his works has dropped sharply in recent years.
However, in the discussion among movie fans, among the shortlists this time, the most popular ones have always been him and Huang Zihua, and it was originally considered to be a battle between the two.
However, Lin Baoyi, dressed in a crisp suit, walked on the red carpet with the crew of "Under the Sun" and looked very proud.
This movie with a reputation of 8.0 points did show off at the awards ceremony. The heroine Yu Xiangning won the "Queen of Best Actress", Jiang David and Liang Yongting won the Best Supporting Actor and Best Actress respectively. Originally, the outside world thought that Lin Baoyi was extremely likely to win. Winning the "Best Actor" trophy completely completed the acting awards at this Academy Awards.
In the end, he accompanied him with a smile on his face. Huang Zihua, who had promised to leave without winning the award, also missed it. Instead, Tony Leung won the "Best Actor" for the sixth time.
It is no longer news that Tony Leung Chiu-wai won the "Best Actor". In the Chinese film industry, he is the ceiling among male actors.
However, in "Goldfinger", which won the award this time, Tony Leung's performance as the empty-handed man Cheng Yiyan was still wonderful. However, compared with his previous works, the final presentation of this drama was unsatisfactory. The twist of the story, Issues in the details of character setting have caused controversy.
These problems make the collaboration between Tony Leung and Andy Lau a bit regretful after 20 years, and the film's reputation is not consistent with this dream lineup.
However, in the end, with this work, he surpassed the subversive performances of Huang Zihua in "The Vengeful Lawyer" and Lin Baoyi in "Under the Sun", which caused a lot of controversy.
According to the predictions of many film critics, Zhang Jianhua played by Lin Baoyi in "Under the Day" has become the favorite to win the award. This role is completely different from the elite and gentle character he has left in TVB dramas in the past few decades. image.
As the director of a welfare home, Zhang Jianhua, who suffers from eye disease, seems to be honest and kind-hearted, but he constantly reaches out to the disadvantaged groups. The complexity of this character is played by Lin Baoyi in a subtle way.
In this work adapted from real events, Zhang Jianhua, who was created based on character prototypes, has also become the villain and support of the story of "Under the Day".
Lin Baoyi, whose every micro-expression in the film was terrifying, ended up being the only one of the leading actors who did not win a trophy.
He shattered his comfort zone but became a "legacy"
Lin Baoyi failed to win the "Best Actor" with the character of Zhang Jianhua, which made movie fans express regret.

Zeng Jiayuan in "Forensic Records", Li Guozhu in "The Hands of Mercy", Sun Baiyang in "The Golden Branch", and Gao Changsheng in "Jewelry". These male protagonists he has created have created the highlights of TVB dramas.
can be affectionate and somewhat yuppie, and Lin Baoyi is also a unique being.
However, compared to many actors who debuted professionally, Lin Baoyi, who once appeared in the entertainment industry as a singer, first sang on the same stage as Faye Wong. Becoming an actor was purely an accident.
Coming from a poor family, he started working very early. He started participating in a band at the age of 13. He became a drummer at the age of 18. He worked as a firefighter and a police officer for four years. He then entered a record company as a production coordinator and struggled all the way before finally making his debut. .
At that time, there were many masters in the Hong Kong music scene. In 1990, Lin Baoyi and Faye Wong starred in the movie "Farewell My Concubine" and signed a contract with TVB. Their partners became a generation of "divas", and he started his career as an actor.
After dominating the TVB screen for 20 years, Lin Baoyi started with supporting roles, such as Chen Taotao in "The Big Era" and Ling Keyang in "Thousand Years Old Lover". These supporting roles eventually paved the way for him to get the highlight of "Inspection Certificate" and became TVB's star. Head of the family.
The story of Zeng Jiayuan and Nie Baoyan has been a template for workplace dramas to this day. They captured both love and workplace order just right. Lin Baoyi and Chen Huishan have also become Bai Yueguang in the audience's memory.
In 2023, Lin Baoyi and Chen Huishan sang their voices together at the party. The classic CP on the same stage made Wong Cho Lam in the audience look like a fan.
In the Hong Kong drama circle, Lin Baoyi has long been regarded as the "Emperor", but he is not satisfied with the label of niche.
Before many actors left the nest, in 2011, Lin Baoyi’s contract with TVB expired and would not be renewed. He admitted to the media that he wanted to pick some good scripts, so he decided to go solo.
After leaving TVB, he no longer only played the male lead. When he played opposite Zhang Ziyi and Song Hye Kyo, he was the ruthless man Yuan Pitt;
In "Anti-Corruption Storm 2", he was the security manager Lun Tian who was brutally murdered. source.
Different from the past where every movie had a leading male lead, in the 13 years since leaving TVB, although Lin Baoyi has participated in 14 movies one after another, he is basically in a supporting role. Each of his characters has a different style. After breaking away from the personality label, there is a certain divide between good and evil.
The outside world lamented that Lin Baoyi was no longer popular, but he was happy with it. When he was approached to star in "Under the Sun", he almost turned down the role of Zhang Jianhua because at that time he was busy challenging his first role as a producer, filming the suspense drama "Bridge of Sighs".
Unexpectedly, five years later, director Jian Junjin once again approached him to play the role of Zhang Jianhua, and he decided not to live up to this fate.
In order to play this role, Lin Baoyi used a silver pen to paint his hair white every day. In order to get the details of this character, he became fatter than before. He also carefully looked at the past information of the prototype character, from tilting his head, etc. He analyzed the character in detail, but what troubled him was that he was so rebellious from the bottom of his heart that he didn't dare to look in the mirror after work every day when he went home.
Lin Baoyi's disgust is because he cannot accept the layers of divisions in the character Zhang Jianhua. He seems to be a good person helping the weak, but secretly he is a devil who keeps extending his claws.
Two hours after the filming of "Under the Sun" was completed, Lin Baoyi washed off all the makeup and returned to herself completely.
He said that this was the fastest he had ever done in a play, and his determination also showed how deeply he understood the character Zhang Jianhua.
After the movie was released, many fans said that they could not recognize Lin Baoyi at first sight. The gentle, elegant or quaint actor he once was was no longer. Zhang Jianhua, who seemed to be a middle-aged man but showed ruthlessness in the details, completely left him. Cut off the past.
Therefore, after Lin Baoyi was shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best Actor, he was considered very hopeful to win the trophy, because not only did he perform well, he also completely shattered his past comfort zone.
However, the final result was that he was just a spectator throughout the whole process, watching the actors in the same group win awards one by one, which was embarrassing.
He is the only one who doesn’t feel sorry.
Carina Lau, who took the stage to accept the award in place of her husband Tony Leung, couldn’t help but joke when thanking her: “I know that when Tony Leung wins the award, many people will say no! It’s him again, give others a chance.But I have been around him for so many years, and I think he is really a great actor."
This Versailles tone paired with the huge lobster necklace on his chest shows a sense of comedy.
Regarding Tony Leung's acting skills, whether it is Both Carina Lau and the audience recognized it. The outside world is only arguing about her role in "Goldfinger", which is not considered Tony Leung's masterpiece. It is somewhat "upset".
Compared with Tony Leung's decades of dominance in the Academy Awards, Carina Lau also experienced the disappointment of having a frozen smile at this award ceremony.
In 1991, Carina Lau was considered certain to win the Best Actress Award for her role in Days of Being Wild. Among the five nominated actors that year, she was the only one to arrive at the scene. Both Chow Yun-fat and Brigitte Lin sent their blessings to her in advance, but when the mystery was finally revealed, it was Cheng Yuling who won the award for "Hello, Cousin!"
This made Carina Lau's smile instantly freeze, even after many years. Holding the "Best Actress" trophy did not hide the feeling of disappointment in the heart at that time.
This feeling is not difficult to be replaced by Huang Zihua and Lin Baoyi, who were favored by the outside world this time. They held well-reputed works and came to the scene wearing gorgeous clothes, but in the end they failed. They lost to Tony Leung who won the award remotely.
But unlike the young and frivolous Carina Lau who was eager to win awards to prove her acting skills, now middle-aged Huang Zihua and Lin Baoyi are more calm and relaxed after the award ceremony. He is still a newcomer, and the future is still promising;
Lin Baoyi said as early as March that he was satisfied with being nominated and relieved himself in advance.
Compared with Huang Zihua's attitude, Lin Baoyi's attitude seemed calmer.
This is not the case. Not surprisingly, his work volume has dropped sharply since leaving TVB, and even his starring roles have dropped sharply. However, the requirements for roles are different, and filming is more like his hobby.
He is more happy on social platforms. Sharing gatherings with old friends, going to the seafood market to buy vegetables, and living like a celebrity.
In the past ten years, Lin Baoyi has lived a life of wandering around the entertainment industry, so much so that many viewers once misunderstood her. Thinking that he has retired.
Even for a long time, he was too lazy to respond to the rumors about his relationship with the little girls. He just waited for the rumors to become more and more intense, and simply clarified them on the social platform.
This time in Jin. At the award ceremony, Lin Baoyi made the audience sigh, but for him, it was already calm.
After all, in his opinion, choosing a good script is the goal, so he smiled sincerely even if he didn't win the award.
However, for movie fans, 62-year-old Tony Leung can be said to be a "great actor", and 58-year-old Lin Baoyi, who works quietly, also deserves more recognition.
Because there really weren’t enough male lead opportunities left for him, he finally missed the highlights in a hurry, so this “relic” made people sigh.
