Xia Yu returned to the imperial capital a month later, in late September.
On September 21st, Tao Tang was responsible for the final coordination of the filming location selection. Xia Yu returned to the imperial capital with a small team and Dai Chengbi, who was also exhausted, to make the remaining arrangements.
Dai Chengbi actually met up with Xia Yu and his team on the last day of August. If Tao Tang was responsible for on-the-spot inspections, then Dai Chengbi came here just to contribute to his work arrangements as a director——
After all, Dai Chengbi is the chief director.
The whole filming of the movie, in addition to the actors, screenwriters, photography... is mostly controlled by the director. The director also has different ideas for the filming location and lens arrangement according to different directors!
In other words, Tao Tang was just setting up the basic route. To really decide on the route, he still had to seek the advice of our guide Dai to improve the route plan - after this trip, he was really exhausted!
Especially after being taken by Xia Yu to experience the "customs and customs", fortunately, in this era, the folk customs are more simple than twenty or thirty years ago. Otherwise, the two of them might have been beaten many times in the ravine!
In one month, although most of Xia Yu's emotions have not changed, acquaintances like Tao Tang and Dai Chengbi have keenly noticed the subtle changes, but they all know that Xia Yu's experience in this month or so is...
For this slight "change".
Even if I can feel the subtle hysteria in Xia Yu's seemingly calm state of mind, especially when she sits alone outside the village, in the city, in certain alleys, intersections, in certain scenes - that bleak, lonely figure makes me laugh.
It’s sad, but they didn’t say a word about it!
The happiest thing about this trip is the Yuanbao. Going up the mountain and down the river, it will definitely not catch mice. It hates them and is dirty to death, but it really catches a lot of fish. Of course, I have also encountered many people who are jealous of it.
Among the "gangsters" who have evil thoughts, there are little kids who see it as cute and want to take it as their own, and there are also some adults who are cat and dog dealers!
Speaking of which, there have been several big gains this month - because these routes were based on Cheng Zhiqing's confession to some human traffickers who were serving their sentences in the prison. Along the way, they really discovered a few things.
A gang...
Of course, the group of people were not professionals. They discovered it, recorded it, and immediately called the regional police - a team that also captured several human traffickers, big and small. To be honest, it was really emotional!
Even in this era, there are still a large number of human traffickers... But Xia Yu and his group kept a very low profile, reported the case, and asked a few behind-the-scenes staff to follow them to explain, record confessions and so on.
On Xia Yu's side, not even half of the staff who might appear in the public eye came forward.
During the month when Xia Yu was experiencing life immersively, a series of events also occurred in the entertainment industry. First of all, "Jinling Festival" was released on August 31st. In the early morning of September 1st, the full data was released -
—The total box office in Mainland China reached 2.313 billion!
In one fell swoop, he won the highest box office performance in Chinese film history for Mr. Zhuang...
It must have made the headlines, and all the major online portal platforms have been maxed out - Director Zhuang is so awesome, no regrets!
And Xia Yu is less than 500 million away from 5 billion in box office, which is half of an actress with a box office of 10 billion!
A serious and unique film and television industry exists.
And through "The Swordsman", "The Cure" and "Jinling Festival", a batch of movies with a box office of 1.2 billion, people inside and outside the circle have begun to analyze: [After the millennium, perhaps, domestic films will really
Ushering in another rise, and this time rising in the mainland!]
In any case, this industry has a new force that is booming, at least on the surface!
At the same time, the [China International Film Festival], which was announced and fermented for half a year, made its announcement again.
The preliminary selection and the list of candidates for each competition unit of this film festival have been announced!
Since the release of the establishment information of the "China International Film Festival", it has not only caused a sensation in China, but also attracted the attention of the film and television circles around the world - after all, it is an emerging film festival, and it is qualitatively different from the Oscars and the three major international film festivals - and then
In addition, China is another piece of fat, and film crews from many countries have set their sights on China - they can't win any awards anyway, so why not choose an award that can maximize benefits? One will contribute to this film festival,
The other one can also reap a wave of box office results!
As a result, there are a large number of films participating in this film festival, at least hundreds or nearly a thousand films. With so many films, it is impossible for ten judges to watch them one by one. In that case, it would be an overuse of talents.
Therefore, two rounds of primaries and re-selections were arranged - from September until the start of the film festival, the two rounds lasted for forty-five days. In the end, sixty shortlisted films were selected through personal voting!
The reviewers are also professionals in the industry, with a total of more than 100 people. They are divided into four parts according to the type of film.
Selection will be conducted in the feature film, documentary, short film, and cartoon categories.
This is the primary election.
The review is conducted by the judges for all film categories and individual category awards. The entire process is openly discussed, and the result is a secret ballot to produce the final shortlist!
This is a job and an opportunity for experience. Although it will be very hard for more than a month, there are still a large number of people who rely on connections to fight for their brains.
According to the principle of fairness, this group of professional reviewers for the primary and secondary selections selected 50 people from the mainland, and 40 people each from Xiangjiang and Wanwan, for a total of 130 people participating. Among them, Xia Yu knew
There are quite a few!
The most familiar ones are Hu Chang and Qu Ziyi - despite their lack of success in the film industry, Hu Chang already has a film competing for the Best Actor Award this year, which will be announced at the end of the year, but among TV majors such as Gu Mingtao, Zhang Yunze, and Shao An,
As long as he is no longer a fan, he has a very good chance of winning the prize!
In fact, Hu Chang's current acting skills are slightly inferior to these three, but in just two years, his breakthrough is also very big!
In his own words, "It was all stimulated by Yu Bao!"
Being a double-choice reviewer is more than enough.
Qu Ziyi also just received a postgraduate master's degree from the Acting Department of the Imperial Film Academy. At the same time, he has been admitted to the Acting Department of the Imperial Film Academy and has just enrolled in September.
It's not that all Xia Yu knows are young people, mainly this time, there are really more people participating in the film festival. It can be regarded as the most fierce competition for awards in China in many years...
As soon as this list came out, there was a lot of excitement - it can be said that the entire Chinese film industry almost participated in this film festival.
As for Xia Yu's rush back this time, one is that the inspection is over and the experience is over, and the other also has a mission - he plans to go to a prison with some connections in the imperial capital to "communicate with some human traffickers!"
Of course, there is another important thing - at the end of this month, my daughter Sissi will be one year old.
As a godmother, she is busy with work and is already incompetent. She must celebrate her daughter's first birthday anyway!
