Chapter 972: Am I, Lao Dai, so stingy? (3 more updates, please vote for me)
Author: Qinggu
The Cannes Film Festival awards ceremony is over, and there is still two good news.
One is that after more than ten days of deliberation, Cheng Yun and his wife finally reached an intention to cooperate.
After Xia Yu won the Silver Palm Award for Best Actress at Cannes, the two participated in a celebration banquet for the crew of "Aversia Hatcher", or in other words, Xia Yu's small circle.
At the banquet, Song Ang and Dai Chengbi reconciled in a real sense.
Dai Chengbi has never been a narrow-minded person. He used to dislike Song Ang, but in recent years, Song Ang has also shown sufficient sincerity in apologizing.
Xia Yu and the Cheng Yun couple rarely get along, but after Dai Chengbi and Song Xi had their second child, the number of times the Cheng Yun couple contacted Dai Chengbi, or Song Xi, increased day by day.
As the "middle child", Dai Jia is very loved by Cheng Yun and his wife.
Not only during holidays, but also on weekdays, and when I have a trip back to my country, I will go out of my way to see the little girl.
This niece has nothing to do with inheriting the perfect genes of Dai Chengbi and his wife, but she has a "summer temperament".
This time, Xia Yu discussed the communication and cooperation with Chengyun and his wife in advance with Lao Dai.
Cooperation is cooperation, but Xia Yu couldn't chill Lao Dai's heart and asked him:
"What do you think, if I recruit Senior Sisters Song Ang and Cheng Yun?"
"?" Lao Dai was stunned for a moment, then blinked his eyes. It was not resistance, nor was it a bloody surprise. His eyes were filled with rational thinking. He pondered for a moment and finally nodded: "Bankrupt sisters? I think it's okay!"
"Competition in the international film industry is extremely fierce. Filming requires some skilled personnel. My brother-in-law is very talented in directing. If it weren't for those few things, in the Chinese film industry
Ten years later, he will definitely have a place!"
You must know that back then, Dai Chengbi was called the successor of Chinese literary and artistic films, and Song Ang was also called the successor of Chinese commercial films!
One class picks up Zhuang He, and the other picks up Xu Wei.
He said, "In the past few years, that boy Song Ang has not said anything, but he knows that even Gu Zhao is not satisfied in Hollywood and Victoria Pictures. Gu Zhao, who has won the Oscar for Best Director twice, almost got mixed up.
If you don't go down, let alone him and Cheng Yun, who are frivolous.
The capital in Xiangjiang has the right to speak in Victoria Pictures, but it is also limited. Because you, Xia Yu, were born, the couple may have been roasted on the fire. If you remain opposed
It's okay for them to mess around, but we can still shake hands and make peace. This matter is not a secret."
Or maybe Victoria Pictures arranged a task for the two of them to win over Xia Yu’s base camp? It’s possible!
If so, they must have refused, otherwise how could such a mess be possible?
"Just look at Chengyun's resources and you will know - they are all just tools to support others!"
"You don't have to worry too much about me. Am I, Lao Dai, so stingy?"
"Humph! You even went out of your way to tell me, isn't it because I'm afraid I won't be happy? After all, he's my brother-in-law. If you don't ask me, I'll still want to whisper if I want to give him a hand!"
Xia Yu laughed, "I didn't see it, everyone has this kind of awareness!"
"Hmph! As long as you are enlightened, come on!" Dai Chengbi snorted: "Hurry up and make a decision, don't look back and find a suitable director!"
"Whether it's suitable or not, it's not just a matter of words."
"Do you want another test?"
Xia Yu is also very clear, whether it is to Dai Chengbi or Song Ang:
"There is an intention to cooperate, but there are also assessments. We will not let them shoot a particularly important film right away."
Dai Chengbi: “Nothing to criticize!”
Xia Yu trusts Chengyun and his wife, but there is a limit.
Those few things that have happened, plus the re-establishment of trust, will take time, experience, and tests to be carried out simultaneously.
"That's right!" Dai Chengbi breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm really afraid of you... full of heart, blood, and trust!"
"I turned around and thought, what the hell, even if I, Lao Dai, were full of enthusiasm and rushed forward, you Xia Yu wouldn't be able to do it!"
Besides, neither Tao Tang nor Zhuang Ling could correct a low-level mistake.
Xia Yu didn't shy away from asking Dai Chengbi, "What about you? Do you plan to stay in China all the time? Don't you plan to go out with me to try something new?"
Dai Chengbi shook his head, "Chuang! But it's not with you - don't forget, our company also has Lao Hu, Fu Yijun, and Jiang Tong!"
"It's certainly prestigious to go international, but it's enough to have people like you - I'm more suitable to make a small fuss in the country at the moment. When I completely shut up these people, I'll be done!"
"In order to deal with foreign affairs, we must first settle our domestic affairs. I am a sharp knife and a whetstone for the future of our Chinese film industry - just wait!"
"Before you fight outside, you must first make peace at home. Is this what you mean?"
"Almost, almost..." he muttered, "Is it still better than Zhen'er?"
The two finally talked about Dai Chengbi's new movie, and Xia Yu asked, "How was the editing of "The Elephant Sitting on the Floor"?"
When Dai Chengbi said this, his eyebrows suddenly lit up: "It's almost the same, I can make it in time!"
"Last time I bothered Tao Tang to talk to Chairman Yao Yuanqian and Chairman Yao, I let go and didn't cut it off for the girl. I also left a lot. After all, I think the filming rate is quite high. After the film is completed, three
It’s over an hour long, so if you want to tell a complete story, it’s impossible to cut too much, but for the highlight scenes, I focused on Lao Hu!”
Dai Chengbi was very satisfied with the result.
Dai Chengbi is also a thief, "If you can't get me the best director, I'll just get the best actor!"
Xia Yu: "Which one are you planning to attend? Berlin? Cannes? But what do you mean? Could it be that you are planning to participate in this year's... China International Film Festival?"
Dai Chengbi was also hesitant.
"I'm thinking about this, whether it's the China International Film Festival this year or Berlin next year!"
The Berlin Film Festival is definitely different for Lao Dai, but he has already won the best director award from the three majors once. There is no chance of winning the second award, unless he really beats the other ten or twenty outstanding films.
, otherwise it is unlikely!
Put together dozens of outstanding directors, and if you want to capture the jury and shoot the film, you have to be able to capture their hearts. To be honest, Dai Chengbi has never had much confidence in this!
As for Hu Chang, he also needs to have acting skills that can overwhelm all the actors in the main competition, at least a lot higher, to the level of Xia Yu and Yu Junhao - and even the two of them have accompanied them many times,
Finally got results!
Now more than ever, competition for various awards is fierce.
The remaining actors, who are equally matched, compete for their respective backgrounds, reputations, and the degree of shock the film brought to the jury - Dai Chengbi and Hu Chang couldn't help but tremble.
