"Guan Tong, a fifth-generation female director of Chinese literary films, won the Best Actress at the 40th Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan and the Best Actress at the 22nd Academy Awards. She has participated in and assisted in the filming of many films, including "Overlord"
, "Assassination of Qin", "Lady of the Night" and many other classic films, and is currently the chief director of the film "Youth" invested by the company..."
Guan Tong stood up and nodded to everyone, showing a smile.
Her smile looks very gentle, very natural and friendly, and her appearance is outstanding. Even though she is middle-aged, she is still full of ladylike elegance and charm.
She was once a goddess-level figure of Zhou Yang's father's generation.
In Zhou Yang's memory, the movie "Assassination of Qin" is the pinnacle of Chinese martial arts films. When he was a child, when this movie was popular on the streets, the small shops outside the school were full of movie characters.
Among the posters, the best-selling one is the one of Guan Tong holding a sword, facing the camera, white clothes and snow, so beautiful!
As for that "Overlord"...
After coming to this world, Zhou Yang has heard the name of this movie more than once.
This film is the masterpiece of director Chen Kai. It is also the only Chinese film that debuted in Cannes, France and won an award. Even now, more than ten years later, this film is still evaluated by foreign media as one of the top ten films in the history of world cinema.
classic work.
Guan Tong's performance in the movie was even nominated for Best Actress at Cannes...
Although it is a pity that she did not win the award, she is still one of the most brilliant female representatives of an era.
This is definitely a heavy hitter!
"Director Zhou Yilin... one of the representatives of the Five Generations of Chinese directors, Best Director of the 7th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards, Best Director of the 23rd Moscow International Film Festival, and has directed "Bohemian Rhapsody" and "Warrior"
, "Gladiator" and many other films... I am currently busy with the post-production of "Warring States" and various works at the Berlin International Film Festival, so I was not at the scene today..."
Although Zhou Yang has not heard every work of this director, he is not unfamiliar with director Zhou Yilin...
Feng Kai had mentioned this legendary fifth-generation director to him more than once!
His battlefield is not in China, so the box office of each of his movies is not high.
Although the box office is not high, it does not mean that he is not famous...
Since the turn of the millennium, every film he directed has been shortlisted for the three major European international film festivals and won multiple nominations. His copyrights have been sold rapidly in overseas literary and art circles, and he has many enthusiastic fans. He is called the most popular director of the fifth generation.
The uncrowned king who hopes to reach the pinnacle of literary and artistic films...
His "Warring States" had high hopes from the Chinese film community even before it started filming. Many people even claimed that he would definitely win China's first Berlin Film Festival Golden Bear Award on behalf of the Chinese this time!
This is another big shot!
"Mr. Wu Zhenhong, the director of the company's music department and a popular music artist, once personally discovered and created the first album "Cold Night" for Zhao Tianwang. In the same year, he participated in the supervision and production of Mr. Shen Qirong's "Past" album. The following year he personally
Wrote a rock album title song of the same name "Wandering" for Mr. Zhou Jian..."
Zhou Yang saw the middle-aged man with a mustache and thick glasses, gently pushed up his glasses, and nodded slightly as a greeting.
Then he continued to sit calmly on the chair, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him, looking like an artist who could not eat the fireworks of the world.
He Yiming next to him excitedly started to applaud, shouting "teacher" and "teacher" non-stop...
Zhou Yang was shocked.
It has nothing to do with He Yiming’s fanaticism!
In my memory, this man is definitely a godfather-level presence in the music industry.
"Cold Night", "Past", "Wandering"!
These three albums spanned a major era in Hong Kong and directly created the three music kings of the post-80s and post-90s music circles. In that era, they created sales myths that cannot be surpassed by future generations!
"Feng Kai, best new director at the 35th Golden Horse Awards, nominated for new directors at the R-Ben International Film Festival, and one of the participating directors of the Asian Rising Star Director Program, has assisted in directing "Gunfire", "Racing", "Far Cry" and many more
The first film to be exhibited at the Berlin Film Festival, and he independently directed two films, "Brothers" and "Shocking", with high box office reviews and good box office..."
Zhou Yang, who was immersed in shock, heard another burst of applause.
In a daze, he saw Feng Kai tidying up his clothes, standing up and nodding to everyone amidst the applause, showing a faint smile.
He was very excited when he saw the artists on Xingcai's side. Several good-looking girls applauded desperately and made secret glances at Feng Kai.
But Feng Kai ignored these people at all. Amidst the applause, he just sat and looked at the identity introductions of everyone in Xingcai, with a hint of indifference and arrogance on his expression.
His expression made the eyes of those girls even more fiery and crazy!
Zhou Yang felt stunned after hearing Feng Kai's resume.
this moment……
He finally realized why when he first came in, everyone was surrounding Feng Kai, with all kinds of flattery and flattery coming and going.
He himself is one of the most awesome people of the younger generation, with unlimited potential and unlimited glory!
He lowered his head.
He suddenly felt that he shouldn't be sitting here.
Not only shouldn't it be done, but it's also unworthy.
You should stand like the waiter serving tea and water next to you, serving tea and water to these characters.
He was restless and his head bowed even further.
"Zhou Yang, director of "Mineral Bottom"."
An Xiao's faint voice sounded.
Then……
It was an indescribable silence!
Zhou Yang raised his head subconsciously.
He saw everyone look at him, and then at An Xiao, as if they were confused.
Being watched by so many people, he felt very panicked.
For a moment, he wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground and never come out again.
Am I really a director...
He asked himself, but the answer he finally got was no.
Just at this time……
"Mr. Zhou Yang is a new director in our Huaxing Entertainment. He is the screenwriter, director, starring, producer, and project leader of the movie "Mineral Bottom". At the same time, this movie will go to the Berlin International Film Festival together with "Warring States"
I learned a lot during my cooperation with Mr. Zhou Yang. He taught me a lot and I benefited a lot!"
Feng Kai put down the information sheet and suddenly raised his head to break the silence.
His expression was very serious, unprecedentedly serious, and at the same time, his voice was full of seriousness and unquestionable.
When everyone heard this scene, their eyes widened.
They looked at this young man in shock who was dressed strangely and seemed out of tune with the whole world.
Zhou Yang was shocked when he heard this.
He looked up.
He subconsciously opened his mouth to explain...
He felt that Feng Kai had lifted him to a level that did not belong to him!
He was very panicked and at a loss.
"I……"
"Well, yes, that's a good addition!"
Before he could say anything, he heard An Xiao's faint affirmation.
……………………
applause.
Feng Kai was the first to applaud.
In applause...
Everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Zhou Yang.
Song Qianqian opposite was staring at Zhou Yang, the curiosity in her lovely eyes was even stronger, as if she was very eager to know Zhou Yang's background...
"Who is this Zhou Yang? Why do we have no information at all before..."
"I don't know either, but China Star Entertainment has invested in three movies this year. He can shoulder the responsibility, which shows that this person is definitely not an ordinary director. Have you seen Feng Kai's expression? Who is Feng Kai? That's the eye.
He is above the top and extremely arrogant. When have you ever seen him so submissive to someone? Now look at his expression when he spoke just now..."
"He should be a character..."
"But, is there anyone in the director circle that we don't know?"
"On the contrary, I think he is quite simple and has a sense of art. The fact that he is sitting here means that he is no less important than Director Feng. I guess he may be an experiential art director who returned from overseas studies. Maybe we should pay attention to overseas
A Chinese director, he may be from that field..."
"Um……"
"..."
Vaguely, Zhou Yang heard whispers.
besides……
Those pairs of eyes were even more intense.
Zhou Yang lowered his head.
His face felt a little hot, and he was very uneasy, but at the same time he felt a sense of vanity.
"Now, let's start the formal meeting process. Which artist from Xingcai Company we Huaxing Entertainment will sign and how much the signing fee will be depends on the votes of everyone present in the company..."
"Of course, including your company's agents..."
The applause stopped.
After An Xiao began to announce that the meeting was officially in progress, Zhou Yang suddenly had an idea in his mind.
China Star Entertainment is voting for contracted artists.
And him!
Does he, a little person who should not be sitting in this position and a layman who knows nothing, really have the right to vote?
Is he worthy?
"Director Zhou, I hope you can express your personal opinions appropriately. I know you have a very vicious eye when selecting people..."
"..."
Just when Zhou Yang's emotions were complicated, An Xiao looked at him again and said calmly.
