Many times the final result is that the more you want to win the prize, the less likely you are to win, and you may not even get a nomination.
Could it be that the judges can't see through your desire to win the prize that almost overflows the screen?
You are so utilitarian and calculating, and you still want others to easily recognize you and give you rewards. Then, aren't the adults on the jury becoming fools?
If things continue like this, won’t directors all have to do this?
So is there any style left in our film festival? Is there any richness left?
Xiao Qi's success lies in that although he took the maze with great care, he honestly said that when he first compiled this book, he really had no intention of competing for the prize.
He just wants to make a good story in his mind, present it to the public, and give himself a chance to show his face.
He wouldn't have dared to think about such things as being in the top three or winning awards before. Even after filming started, without Wu Di's encouragement, he would never have had such thoughts.
At best, it's just a small test of skills at a college student film festival.
However, it was this seriousness and casualness that allowed him to step onto the red carpet in Water City today. The maze was filmed like this, and it happened to meet the taste of the judges.
Isn't this called hitting the right spot by mistake?
"Okay, okay, don't explain anymore. Isn't it okay for me to go back? However, I have to ask Brother Hai for leave first. Fortunately, the last scene has been filmed today, otherwise Brother Hai would probably eat my heart.
It’s all there.”
While Xiao Qi was talking at length about the advantages of attending the Shuicheng Film Festival early, Wu Di was appropriately distracted.
This is very necessary, otherwise, once Xiao Qi enters the state and chatters endlessly, even if no one talks to him, he can talk for half an hour.
This skill of his was already experienced personally by Wu Di on the Maze crew, and it is quite powerful. It is also completely confusing.
Because people who have not known him for a long time will be deceived by Xiao Qi's dull appearance and think that he is a poor talker.
This is also true. When there is nothing that interests him, he rarely talks and only focuses on film-related matters.
However, once he really wants to achieve a certain goal and speaks, it will be a real flood.
Not even stopping to take a breath.
When Xiao Qi finished speaking, there was no sound from the other side of the receiver for a long time. Wu Di then spoke. Xiao Qi accepted it well and was not disappointed at all because the person opposite did not respond for a long time.
"Yes, we haven't finished filming the Meng's Orphans yet. So will Brother Hai let him go?"
Xiao Qi is not worried about the follow-up shooting of the movie at all. The only thing he is worried about is Brother Hai himself. With his temper, can he agree?
Xiao Qi also knew the reason why Brother Hai invited Wu Di to join the movie. Under such awkward emotions, the relationship between the two people was already very delicate, and it could be maintained until the movie was finished without causing a big disturbance.
, is what Xiao Qi prays for every day.
Brother Hai is very naughty, and it shows on his face. The last time Wu Di asked for leave to shoot a commercial, it already made him very unhappy.
Moreover, Wu Di lied that time, which further reduced his credibility.
And now, although Wu Di claims that his scenes have been filmed, as long as Hai Ge, an emotional person, has not announced the completion of filming, who would dare to leave early?
Besides, others may have the possibility, but do you, Wu Di, have this qualification?
I was already a thorn in my side, but I didn’t continue to make things difficult for you. It was because I didn’t have a chance, not because I didn’t want to take action.
Do you understand?
Now you are taking the initiative to deliver it to your door, can Brother Hai agree? To be honest, he won’t agree, and he won’t let you go to the film festival to show off!
What about lying?
Your probability of success is even lower. Don't forget, you already have a criminal record. Brother Hai will not believe you at all.
Xiao Qi truthfully stated his worries. Wu Di waved his hands and laughed: "What are you afraid of?"
"I have my own way, don't worry."
"You really have a way?" Xiao Qi was very doubtful.
"Why did I lie to you?"
To say he is cheating is to go too far.
The news about Xiao Qi came suddenly, and Wu Di didn't receive any news beforehand. The filming of Meng's Orphans has been in progress here.
Is it possible to stop filming just because of a piece of news from him and wait for Wu Di's progress?
That is of course impossible and absolutely impossible. Stop dreaming. You, Wu Di, are you the elder? How could Brother Hai give you special care?
If you want to leave on time, of course you have to find a way on your own.
As for what the method is, Xiao Qi has no need to know. Knowing or not knowing, what can he do?
Can he help?
he can not.
Why don't you just shut up and wait for Boss Wu's action?
As for Boss Wu, as soon as he put down the phone, Han Jingjing frowned.
"Boss Wu, do you really have any idea?"
"Brother Hai is not someone to be trifled with. He's not that easy to talk to."
The so-called great directors naturally have different temperaments. Some people may seem very powerful and authoritarian, but when it comes to serious matters, they are still considerate.
Take Lao Zhang for example, although he is usually very serious, demanding and strict on the set. But if something like this happens to him, he will never stop Wu Di from participating.
They might even delay the filming process for a few days and wait for him to come back from Shuicheng, but Brother Hai...
It's not that everyone doesn't understand him, it's just the mental outlook he shows to everyone on a daily basis.
My temperament is really a bit uncertain.
This is Xiangshan Film and Television City, a relatively closed environment. If Wu Di wants to get to the capital in time, he must at least get to Hangzhou first before he can get on the plane.
However, now, let alone Hangzhou, he cannot leave even Xiangshan. Could it be that Wu Di has three heads and six arms?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If you are in a magical city or a big city now, it is still possible for Wu Di to escape quickly. After all, the transportation is convenient and the time it takes will not take long.
There is still room for everything to work.
Now, for Wu Di, it can be said that it is a race against time.
However, what exactly does Wu Di plan to do?
Brother Hai is not someone to be trifled with!
Because he was in a hurry, he ran away from the set. Wu Di's makeup was still not removed until he returned to the hotel.
He was still wearing his savage-like clothes, so he had no choice but to prepare himself.
Fortunately, he is a gentleman and is not so particular. He just needs to simply wash off all the makeup.
He doesn't worry about not being able to meet people without makeup, so he doesn't need to make any preparations. He just needs to find suitable clothes and change into them.
It is much more convenient for male stars to go out on the street than for female stars. This is where the time saved is. Because of the difference in the steps of makeup, generally speaking, although male stars now basically need makeup to appear in movies and TV dramas, they still do not need to wear makeup in daily life.
Most of them wear makeup.
Moreover, compared to actresses, male actors still wear much lighter makeup. Therefore, sometimes, when you see the candid photos of celebrities in private, you can tell that male celebrities are basically different from those seen on TV.
Too big of a difference.
Before and after makeup, you are still the same person.
But actresses are different. Many times, they can be described as completely different before and after makeup.
It's absolutely a big change. If he can ignore the consequences, Wu Di can really walk away. In fact, he doesn't really care about the consequences. What he cares about is the environment here.
Xiangshan is not a big place, and it is not densely populated. The most important thing is that it is a new film and television base. It was established because of the Meng's orphans.
Therefore, those who are currently active in the film and television city are basically people from the Meng's Orphans crew, and they are acquaintances everywhere.
It’s really not easy for Wu Di to give up his career.
What's more, Brother Hai is still a great director after all, with status and connections in the industry. Wu Di is not interested in cooperating with Brother Hai again at all. What he cares about is the follow-up activities.
Brother Hai has a wide network of contacts in the industry. If he offends one person, he will most likely offend the group of people behind him.
The consequences of this are a bit serious.
You can't ignore it.
Of course it would be cool to leave, but now I can't leave. Even if I leave, the possibility of not offending Brother Hai is basically zero.
Although Xiao Qi and Jingjing were expecting Wu Di to come up with some amazing plan, Wu Di still found Brother Hai and sat across from him.
There is no other way. If you want to leave the crew, you have to go through the hurdle of Brother Hai.
Even if you are reluctant, you have to go for it.
"Xiao Wu, do you want to leave?"
Since it was Xiao Qi's phone call, Brother Hai could guess a little bit about the content of the call. It was nothing more than a few things about the movie Labyrinth.
For a movie like this that has been screened abroad, it will definitely not be released in theaters soon. It is not yet time.
Since it's not a domestic screening issue, it must be an international issue.
The fact that Maze has been shortlisted in Water City is a sensational news in the domestic entertainment industry. Naturally, a senior figure like Hai Ge will not miss it.
Film festivals all have procedures, and Brother Hai is very familiar with these procedures. After a quick calculation, it's almost time to attend the ceremony.
"Yes, Brother Hai, I think now that all my scenes have been filmed, if possible, I would like to set off today."
Wu Di's words were very tactful, fearing to offend Brother Hai's sensitive nerves, and Brother Hai's face gradually became serious.
Sure enough, he would not agree easily.
"how?"
"Brother Hai, what's the problem?"
Wu Di is very positive. If you ignore me, I will rush to talk to you. He has already made a lot of mental preparations.
Not to mention how weird the character of Brother Hai is, if he was willing to let Wu Di leave the group early, he would have spoken from the beginning.
He could even adjust the filming schedule and put Wu Di's role in the front. After all, Wu Di is not a starring role, not even a major guest role. The most scenes in the entire movie are concentrated in the fight just now.
It's a show.
As long as Brother Hai raises his hand a little, Wu Di can end his days of sitting on the bench, and there is no need to be so embarrassed now.
However, it is obvious that Brother Hai has never had such an idea.
Now, the whole movie is about to be completed, but Wu Di, a non-starring person who didn't have many roles in the first place and was an honest person who was with the team from the beginning, was delayed until this time to start filming.
This shows that Brother Hai did it on purpose.
You just have to drag Wu Di on the set of Meng's Orphans and prevent him from doing other things. Brother Hai did this, and there's nothing you can do about it.
What can you do?
You are a senior director, but you are obviously bullying, and you still have excuses. Who makes you young? Who makes you a newcomer?
If you want to continue making this movie, you have to be honest and obedient. What's more, there is also Lao Zhang's face in it.
You don’t want to embarrass Lao Zhang!
You know, now Brother Hai has tied Wu Di and Lao Zhang together. If Wu Di is good on the surface, Brother Hai will be more relaxed. If Wu Di performs poorly, Brother Hai will immediately compare this performance with Lao Zhang.
Get in touch.
Needless to say, it must be Lao Zhang’s fault!
It was all his instigation!
For Lao Zhang's sake, Wu Di shouldn't act rashly and at least leave some room for Brother Hai.
How about it?
Will he agree?
I'm afraid it's not that easy.
What are the conditions in exchange? Tell him quickly so that Wu Di can think about whether to accept it or not.
Still not talking.
It’s not like you won’t let him leave no matter what!
Brother Hai didn't speak for a long time, and Wu Di fell into conflict for a moment, with all kinds of thoughts jumping around in his head.
Very active.
The main problem now is that going to the Water City Film Festival is definitely a big deal. Even a big-name director like Hai Ge will definitely take it seriously.
But the more serious the matter, if Brother Hai insists on causing trouble for Wu Di, then the chance of him agreeing may be smaller.
On the contrary, if the matter is irrelevant and Brother Hai can't get more benefits from seeing Wu Di, he might still agree.
Don't be confused, it's not that Wu Di thinks the problem is complicated, it's that Brother Hai is such a naughty person.
Moreover, it can be said that Wu Di now has a more thorough understanding of Hai Ge's character.
After all, although he had some preparation for Brother Hai's character before, at that time, after all, he had not had formal contact with him, so he only made subjective inferences based on the reports he saw.
And now, Wu Di, who has been sitting on the bench for almost a month, has a comprehensive observation of Brother Hai.
All I can say is that although some of those reports are outrageous, the real character of Brother Hai is even more outrageous than those reports.
He is just so stubborn, there is no need to doubt it. Wu Di just made a reasonable inference based on his character.
Analyzing from Brother Hai's motives, he must hope that Wu Di will be as unlucky as possible. How can we make Wu Di even more unlucky?
Of course it ruined what Wu Di thought was a good thing!
Therefore, Wu Di's hesitation is very obvious. Hai Ge's emotions have always been unpredictable and unpredictable.
Brother Hai originally wanted to carry it, but seeing how diligent he was, he couldn't carry it anymore.
He cleared his throat and spoke again, with a very easy-going tone: "Okay, you can go if you want."
ha?
