On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Xia Yu's parents returned to China one after another. After confirming that they had arrived home successfully, starting from the third day of the Lunar New Year, which was February 13th, Xia Yu and the others continued to immerse themselves in Berlin movies for the remaining three or four days.
It’s time for free show time.
Without Xia Yi's scruples, Xia Yu and Mrs. Zhuang had no scruples when choosing movies.
When you come to the Berlin Film Festival to watch movies, what are you watching? Isn’t it movies about reality and human nature?
Look at those naked realities and humanistic arts - Tao Tang and Wen Sui can adapt.
Meng Dong was not used to it at first, but gradually, she really got into it.
Xue Tong was the only one who had no choice but to hold his tablet in the car and watch a beautiful drama called "The Sun Never Sets".
On February 13th, Xia Yu and Tao Tang agreed, and Xia Yu personally called Wei Jingcheng.
He said that he had finished reading the original work and wanted to win the role of Li Ningyu in it.
The two of them were already familiar with each other. Cheng Zhiqing repeatedly recommended and begged for mercy, and also dragged in Chi Chong, Chen Chuan, Qu Ziyi, Hu Chang and several people who worked under his studio. He, Wei Jingcheng, was almost killed.
It’s arrogant, but it should be said clearly:
"Whether it's Gu Xiaomeng or Li Ningyu's role, there are already suitable candidates. It's just because of Lao Cheng that I haven't given a reply - I'll be waiting for you in Shanghai on the 18th. I hope that by then,
Can you give me a surprise!"
After this phone call, Xia Yu called Cheng Zhiqing several more times to thank him——
As a result, Cheng Zhiqing also talked to Xia Yu, "I know that the role of Li Ningyu is very good, more brilliant, of course more complicated, and more difficult to play, but whether it is Li Ningyu or Gu Xiaomeng, the roles are extremely brilliant and they can both be played.
Try it!"
He probably also knew that Xia Yu liked to challenge more difficult roles, but what he faced were the three ceilings for Mesozoic actresses in Mainland China's film industry - he was worried that Xia Yu would miss this good script because of this.
This script is probably the highest quality "spy war drama" this year, and even in the next few years. The most important thing is that this is a spy war drama with two female protagonists. In the future, we may never find such a big heroine.
The main script is here!
Of course, other male characters also have wonderful features!
Xia Yu also expressed his understanding of this, especially after Zhuang He found out about it, he said, "I have read the original work of "The Wind" and planned to buy the copyright a few years ago, but unexpectedly, that guy Wei Jingcheng cut it off first.
This is the "Jinling Festival"!"
Similar to what Cheng Zhiqing said, "The original work is very exciting. Whether it's Li Ningyu or Gu Xiaomeng, they all have their own outstanding points. If you have ideas, the teacher advises you not to miss it!"
at the same time.
He also revealed to Xia Yu a piece of news that was originally not going to be made public for the first time in the industry until the three major Chinese film awards this year!
"The first China International Film Festival will be held at the end of next year. It will be held every two years. This year, all movies released next year will be eligible for script selection!" When this news came out, Xia Yu and Tao Tang were both surprised.
News about the organization of the "Huaxia International Film Festival" has been circulating in the industry for five or six years. In fact, as far as Xia Yu knows, it is okay for Huaxia Film and Television to organize it on its own, but it is an informal international film festival that is not recognized internationally.
awards;
In the past few years, filmmakers from the China Film Association, headed by Mr. Zhuang, have submitted applications to the [International Film Producers Association] several times, but their applications have been put on hold, or in other words, they have been under review until the past two years.
Received initial approval!
After another two years of review,
After being affirmed, it will officially become the second Class A competitive international film festival in Asia and the ninth in the world next year!
"As the first China International Film Festival, it is held every two years. There are so many excellent films accumulated in the past two years. Although I have already confirmed that I will serve as the first jury chairman!"
"The thirty-six judges, from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places, are undecided. For now, their preferences are unclear. But as the first session, they must be the top priority. The tone is also biased toward reality and drama. This is probably not the case.
It will change!”
"And being able to win the first award among hundreds of movies will also receive the greatest recognition in the industry. So - in the past two years, you'd better make one or two more good movies and compete!"
At the same time, I also understand what Mr. Zhuang means - "The Sound of the Wind" is worth the effort!
After all, this is the book that the old man was optimistic about at the beginning!
After the old man said these words, Xia Yu didn't know what Tao Tang thought, but she felt a little bit teased because her third achievement was to win the three major Chinese film awards!
】
Now, the golden statue has been completed, leaving only the golden rooster and the golden horse - "Cure". She is confident about it, and there is also "Jinling Festival" as a foundation, but she still can't help but feel uneasy, but she can only pretend to be calm and ask the old man, "
Then the three major awards will not be held?"
Although Mr. Zhuang didn't know that Xia Yu was suddenly confused, he could hear the meaning behind the little girl's words - after all, as a Chinese filmmaker, who doesn't want to be able to win three domestic gold awards and become a third-rate Best Actor/Queen?
She expressed her reassurance, "The China International Film Festival is held every two years, with three major awards interspersed in between!"
After hearing this, Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief!
Xia Yu's original plan was to go skiing and take a vacation first, and then return to China after the "International Music Level Examination" was over at the end of the month.
Now that I have confirmed the audition for "The Wind" with Wei Jingcheng, my original schedule in Europe has to be changed.
I changed my reservation in advance and returned to Shanghai on the evening of the 17th!
After all such things were arranged, I plunged into the major screening halls of the Berlin Film Festival;
at the same time.
If it was said that before the 14th, it was Xia Yu who stirred up the craze in the domestic entertainment industry, then after the 14th, it was Xiao Xiong Er from all walks of life.
First of all, on February 15th, Yu Junhao Studio was officially established;
On the same day, Gu Zhao's new movie "Black Moon Project" ushered in the shooting ceremony.
Cheng Yun, a Chinese actress from the East, became the focus of film and television circles around the world on this day!
When Yu Junhao's studio was established, Xia Yu didn't bother to call. Instead, he asked Meng Dong to help forward it and attached blessings, and that was done.
On Cheng Yun's side, Xia Yu also asked Meng Dong to handle matters by himself;
The Berlin Film Festival deserves to be one of the three major film festivals in the world. It is a holy place for literary and artistic films. Let’s not talk about the scale for the moment. The films that can be squeezed into the exhibition are not only classics, but they are also excellent films, each with its own characteristics.
It has artistic value worth pondering and appreciating!
And with the end of the ten days of screening time, the closing ceremony of the Berlin Film Festival and the awards ceremony finally came!
The millennium was the time when the three major European film festivals first entered the mainland of China and were well known both inside and outside the industry. However, when the time came to the 10s, the Internet was already very developed in this era. Both those in the film and television circles and outside the circles were familiar with these three major international film festivals.
The film festival maintains a high level of attention.
Although it was during the Chinese New Year, Xia Yu's operation indirectly promoted a wave of publicity, making this time, the country paid special attention to the opening and closing ceremonies of the Berlin Film Festival;
Needless to say about the opening ceremony.
In addition to Xia Yu, the closing ceremony was mainly performed by another "literary goddess" Fu Yijun who is also a first-line actress. Because her reality-themed movie starring in it was selected into the [Main Competition Unit], as the only one in the mainland this year,
It also attracts much attention!
It's just that under Xia Yu's halo, her star is slightly weaker.
And as the Chinese New Year is almost over, domestic media studios, Shanshan, who has been late, have finally arrived. There is a popular word recently, what is it called, and the image is vivid - late but arrived.
The crew of "Jinling Festival", including Mr. Zhuang and Xia Yu, who are currently staying in Berlin, were invited, but they both refused.
Both of them have the same idea, and neither of them is the main person, so what is the interview?
These media studios may also have complaints, but when they meet two teachers and students who are both "incredibly unique", they can only accept it.
However, these people also know Zhuang He very well. In addition, they came here not mainly for Mr. Zhuang, but for the crew of "Sparrow" who was shortlisted for the main competition unit. During this period, the crew of "Sparrow" also all
Staying in Berlin and not returning home!
Well, you can celebrate the New Year every year, but it is not easy to be shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Berlin Film Festival;
However, whether you go back or not, you have to come back on the day of the closing ceremony;
There is nothing we can do about it. Regarding the entry rules for the three major film festivals, take the Berlin Film Festival as an example. For the main competition section, except for the highest award "Golden Bear" which has a specific shortlist, the remaining major awards are all
is unknown!
In other words, the dozens of shortlisted films will basically have to wait until the closing ceremony to be announced!
Therefore, this day is not just for China, or in other words, only a small number of people in China may pay attention, but on this day, the global film and television circles have shifted their attention to this grand closing ceremony;
On this day, another group of people will rise because of this!
As one of the three major film festivals, Berlin locals also have a great sense of belonging, love and identity for the film festival. Therefore, on this day, just like some city-wide sports competitions, almost everyone, old and young, went to Berlin Film Festival.
The palace is close——
There is a red carpet for the opening ceremony, and naturally there is also a closing ceremony. Since it is not the main competition unit, although the crew of "Jinling Festival" can also participate, it is only Xia Yu. Xia Yu himself is not interested, but walking on the red carpet is definitely an international event.
The only rule for brushing your face!
Although it was not the same as the opening ceremony, the arrangement was specially made to be particularly high-end, that is, wearing a classic camus high-end dress and donner a set of high-end jewelry - a little bit of a twist.
But she was different from the rest of the crew. Before all the crews shortlisted for the main competition entered the stage, she followed Mr. Zhuang, who was the chairman of the jury, on the red carpet first!
Being with the jury, the kind of attention that other crew members can't match at all. In addition to being dragged for photos, she was also dragged for n interviews. In addition, she was wearing two luxurious high-definition clothes, which also attracted a lot of attention.
The media recognized it.
Although the red carpet is not long, the opening ceremony was completed in one or two minutes, but the closing ceremony lasted ten minutes and was still in the middle of the red carpet. It was already more than twenty minutes after walking out of the red carpet and entering the theater.
Something happened.
When it comes to interviews and photoshoots, Xia Yu is naturally honest and speaks fluent English, which also makes the media feel friendly towards this actor from the East. There is no need to pose for beauty, being elegant and elegant is enough.
Already.
As for Xia Yu and Mr. Zhuang, one is tall and beautiful, and the other is imposing. Not only are they not overshadowed by these "big men on the reviewers", but they actually outshine this group of people because of their unique temperaments.
The large jury looks like two bodyguards, which is quite interesting!
There is no doubt that this batch is another hot search with an unknown number of terms in China. But more importantly, internationally, especially in European countries, Berlin’s local hot searches - even if it is not the hottest,
But it’s not a worthwhile trip.
This is a very good start for her future international development.
After entering the theater, Xia Yu was not arranged in the front row where the main competition unit was located. Instead, she was arranged in the middle and back seats along with Mrs. Zhuang and others. When she sat in the seat, she secretly announced something to a few people.
thing!
Just now, he learned from Mr. Zhuang that this time, although Mr. Zhuang missed the Golden Bear, the highest award at the Berlin Film Festival, due to his contribution to literary and artistic films over the years, it is very likely that Mr. Zhuang will be awarded one——
[Golden Bear Award for Lifetime Achievement]
This is one of the reasons why the jury committee invited Mr. Zhuang to serve as the chairman of the jury this time——
Hearing the news, Mrs. Zhuang's gentle and elegant face was slightly moved, as if she had memories. After being silent for a long time, she finally couldn't help it. Her eyes were slightly moist, and she said with emotion: "If it is true, then Lao Zhuang can be considered complete.
Got it!"
Although Xia Yu didn't ask in particular, there are some things that are not big secrets. When Mr. Zhuang was young and in his forties and fifties, he made several literary films that participated in the Berlin Film Festival, but in the end, they were all rejected.
Got it!
"Escape" and "Blood Plum" have now become classics, but at the time, they were stifled because of Mr. Zhuang's qualifications. Although many subsequent films were nominated, to be honest, they were not as good as those two films!
And as the old man gets older, although his directing skills are particularly good, he cannot compare with his peak period when he was forty or fifty years old.
This has also been a hurdle for Mr. Zhuang for a long time. In the past few years, he has slowly looked away. This time, although he still failed to win the [Berlin Film Golden Bear Award], he still failed to win the [Lifetime Achievement Honorary Gold].
The Bear Award] is generous in weight!
Not every session will be selected!
Full of gold content.
Subsequently, all the major film crews also entered the theater one after another, and Xia Yu's eyes mainly fell on the twenty-four film crews who were shortlisted for the main competition unit; the first thing he saw was naturally "The Goddess of Literature and Art Fu Yijun", the movie She
After watching it, it turned out that the film was really good and it was possible to be nominated, but it was unlikely that she would win the "Best Actress" award. She was more optimistic about Gloria in "Bachelor Party".
As for the Golden Bear Award for Best Picture, she is optimistic about the two films "Adult Baby" and "The Life of a Garage Dealer."
But it depends on the jury.
