Chapter 257 The Military Merit Chapter is also half of yours (4000+ chapters~)
Although this is not the first time for a domestic film to be nominated for a foreign film festival, Wu Jianye is still the first director to win an international A-level film festival for his first film!
For a time, Wu Jianye's name spread throughout the Chinese film industry.
Everyone knows that the first film directed by Wu Jianye was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival!
However, there were no mobile phones in this era, and landlines were not common. Only a few people in Yanjing who could see Wu Jianye expressed their congratulations to Wu Jianye, while others could only congratulate silently!
Yanjing Film Studio!
Zhu also just got off work at this time.
"Congratulations!" Fang Shu also knew the news immediately, but she did not go to Wu Jianye directly, but found Zhu.
Zhu looked at Fang Shu in confusion: "What's the matter?"
"You don't know yet, but the film directed by Lao Wu has been nominated for the Venice Film Festival!" Fang Shu said excitedly. As the female lead in the film, Fang Shu is naturally honored!
Zhu showed a happy smile, looked at the excited Fang Shu, and congratulated: "I should congratulate you. As the female lead, this drama is not the success of Teacher Wu alone!"
Ever since Wu Jianye studied at Yanjing Film Academy, Zhu's name for Wu Jianye became Teacher Wu.
Fang Shu laughed and said: "This feeling is so strange. No one thought that Wu's first film would be nominated for the Venice Film Festival!"
Looking at Zhu, Fang Shu couldn't help but said: "Your teacher Wu, you are really brave this time!"
Zhu showed a reserved smile: "Teacher Wu is really working hard!"
"By the way, this time I was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival. Are you going to Venice?"
Fang Shu nodded: "Yes, I just came out of the factory director's office, and he has already given us a certificate!"
This time, this movie was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival, which can be said to be a grand event in the domestic film industry. Although this movie was not shot by Yanjing Film Studio, they were naturally very happy as Fang Shu starred in the movie.
.
In fact, there is another thing this year that makes Yanjing Film Studio even more happy, that is, the film shot by their studio was also nominated for the Golden Bear Award at the 33rd Berlin International Film Festival. Unfortunately, it only won the Golden Bear Award in the end.
A special award!
As the leading actress of Yanjing Film Studio, Li Xiuming naturally got the news. In fact, not far away from where Zhu and Fang Shu were chatting, Li Xiuming's figure was standing there.
At this time, Li Xiuming could be said to have mixed feelings in his heart. He was proud of Wu Jianye's success, but also felt disappointed that he could not participate in this glory.
As the relationship between Zhu and Wu Jianye became more public at Yanjing Film Studio, she knew that the feelings hidden in her heart were getting further and further away from her.
Touching the necklace around his neck, Li Xiuming showed a wry smile. This feeling may be destined to be hidden in his heart forever.
In Yanjing Film Studio, there is another person who is anxious about Wu Jianye being nominated for the Venice Film Festival, and the one who is anxious about Wu Jianye’s classmate at Yanjing Film Academy is Chen Kaige!
Classmate Chen Kaige has always thought highly of himself. In his heart, he has always believed that he is the most talented director in Class 78. But now he has not found the movie he wants to shoot, but Wu Jianye has already walked in
In front of me, I was nominated for the International A-level Film Festival.
This made Chen Kaige feel a little uncomfortable.
That night, Wu Jianye's courtyard once again welcomed many friends who came to congratulate him, most of whom were his classmates at Yanjing Film Academy.
Needless to say, Zhu, Fang Shu, Zhang Chao, Zhang Huijun, Mu Deyuan, Tianzhuangzhuang, Zhou Lijing, Xie Wan, Feng Xiaoning and others, even Chen Kaige, who felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, also came to the courtyard to see Wu
Congratulations on the night.
The arrival of everyone made the courtyard lively.
Even Jiang, who was sitting in the screening room watching a movie, was summoned by Wu Jianye to help greet his classmates.
As the hostess, Zhu is naturally very busy.
"Old Wu, when will you get married? We are all still waiting to drink your wedding wine!" Fang Shu shouted from the side.
Tianzhuangzhuang sat under the jujube tree, holding a few sweet dates in his hand, and shouted: "That's right, I think this is an opportunity. Now that you have been nominated for the Venice Film Festival, you might as well just marry Zhu.
Double happiness!”
Wu Jianye glanced at Tianzhuangzhuang. If others didn't know his situation, Tianzhuangzhuang could not know. He just watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal.
This kind of person is very bad...
"Fang Shu, don't talk about me. How are you and Chen Guoxing? You two are known as the couple of gods in school. Why haven't you gotten married yet?"
Fang Shu smiled generously and said: "If that doesn't work, let's just follow the trend. I've heard that there are mass weddings abroad, so let's hold them together when the time comes!"
Fang Shu is not only an actress, her family conditions are also not simple. Her grandfather is a senior general of the Republic of China, her father is a bureau-level cadre in Jinling, her mother is a university professor, and her sister Fang Hui is a well-known TV host and also
Participate in the filming of some movies!
It's a perfect place, so I come into contact with more things than a lot of people.
With Fang Shu booing, many people also started booing. Zhu Ze looked at Wu Jianye shyly, wanting to see how Wu Jianye answered everyone's questions.
After all, she is not young anymore, and her family has asked her several times about her relationship with Wu Jianye!
"That's not possible. I'm planning a unique wedding. How can I be with you?" Wu Jianye turned the problem into something invisible.
"Tch!" Fang Shu rolled her eyes at Wu Jianye.
After everyone had a fight, Wu Jianye called Tianzhuangzhuang and Fang Shu to his side.
"This time we go to Venice, the experimental studio means that all our creative staff will go there, one is to meet the market, and the other is to build up the momentum of Youth Studio!"
Youth Factory's investment in filming was originally to enhance the prestige of the acting studio. Now that the film has been nominated for the Venice Film Festival, they will naturally not let this opportunity pass by.
It can be said that they gave Wu Jianye a chance, and Wu Jianye gave them a different tomorrow!
"Zhuangzhuang, call Xiao Feifei and ask him to come to Yanjing in advance, and we will go there together. Fang Shu, call Xiao Li and ask her to come over in Jinmen too!"
After the filming of the movie was completed, Li Xiaoli returned to Jinmen TV Station. After the post-production was completed, Zhao Fei also returned to Chang'an Film Studio.
After being nominated this time, as the main actors and photographers, they will naturally follow Wu Jianye to Venice!
Naturally, there is no problem between the two of them!
At this time, Dai Zhen suddenly ran over and said in a low voice: "Brother, someone came to the public phone at the corner of the street just now and said he has a call for you. She is a woman from Shanghai!"
When Wu Jianye heard this, he knew it must be the call from Gong.
Glancing at Zhu who was helping to greet his classmates, Wu Jianye nodded: "I understand, don't let Zhu know about this."
Dai Zhen was stunned at first, but still nodded: "Oh!"
Wu Jianye carried the bottle of wine and walked over with a smile and chatted with his classmates, as if Dai Zhen had not said anything to him just now.
"Whoever drinks, come and get it yourself!"
Wu Jianye put the beer on the table and called for everyone to come over and get the wine.
Everyone was not polite, everyone had a bottle of beer, and they sat or stood chatting.
"Time flies so fast. It's been one year since I graduated in the blink of an eye!" Xie Wan sighed: "I wonder how everyone else is doing?"
"What else can I do? I'm just trying to get through my qualifications. I think I'm just like Lao Wu, and I'll be the best at it!"
In terms of qualifications, students from the acting department have an inherent advantage, but students from other departments, whether they are from the directing department, the photography department, or the art department, cannot bypass the qualifications hurdle.
As Chen Kaige said just now, everyone is struggling to gain qualifications.
When I first graduated, every student could be said to be very ambitious. They thought that their qualifications were as small as mine and that as long as they performed a little in the workplace, they would definitely be able to arouse everyone's admiration.
But only when they actually enter the unit do they realize that qualifications are like a shackle, tightly placed on their heads.
Want to make a movie?
The unit only has so much production funds. If you shoot, what will the old directors do? How come you, a newcomer, can't even figure out this kind of thing?
It's that simple and realistic...
"Think about it. I thought that since Lao Wu stayed in school, he might have fewer opportunities to make films. I didn't expect that he would be the first director among our group, and now he has been nominated for the Venice Film Festival!"
Chen Kaige sighed with displeasure in his heart.
"Old Wu, come here, let me interview you. Do you have any thoughts on being nominated for the Venice Film Festival?" Xie Wan saw that everyone was silent, so he joked and adjusted the atmosphere.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "What do you think? It's not about eating, it's about drinking!"
Fang Shu said from the side: "I see that when foreigners win awards, they express all kinds of thanks. Lao Wu, can you think about your acceptance speech now?"
Wu Jianye looked at Fang Shu speechlessly: "Are you so sure that I can win the prize?"
Feng Xiaoning said from the side: "It doesn't matter whether we win or not, at least we can't lose in terms of momentum!"
Wu Jianye: "Write your acceptance speech in advance to gain momentum. Your logic is illogical!"
At this time, everyone didn't care whether the logic made sense or not, and insisted on letting Wu Jianye give his acceptance speech.
"Well, here, I want to thank the conference and the jury for awarding this award to me..."
At the beginning, Wu Jianye still said it in a decent way, but at the end, he suddenly changed his style: "...here, I would like to thank Feng Xiaoning, if his socks weren't so smelly, they would be so smelly."
It makes me unable to sleep, and I won't get up at night to study seriously. If I don't study seriously, I won't achieve what I am now... So this incident has taught us a truth.
"
"To be successful..."
"...You must have a roommate with smelly feet!"
"Ha ha!"
"Old Wu, you framed me!" Feng Xiaoning looked at Wu Jianye with burning eyes, ready to pounce on him.
Wu Jianye dodged and said with a smile: "I framed you, if you don't believe me, take off your shoes now and let everyone judge!"
Zhang Huijun stood in the middle of the crowd seemingly impartially and waved his hand, "I can testify to this matter, Lao Wu, you have indeed framed Xiao Ning!"
Feng Xiaoning went directly over and grabbed Zhang Huijun's hand, and said excitedly: "Old Zhang, you are still fair!"
Zhang Huijun chuckled, first stood two meters away from Feng Xiaoning, and then said: "His socks are so smokey that you can't sleep, they are so smoked that the entire dormitory building can't sleep!"
"Ha ha!"
.......
In the evening, Wu Jianye sent Zhu on his way home.
The moon hung high in the sky. Occasionally, a few clouds drifted by, blocking the moonlight, but they quickly avoided it. Wu Jianye and Zhu's figures were stretched by the moonlight.
The celebration is over, Wu Jianye naturally wants to send Zhu home, even if he doesn't want to...
"Congratulations, your first movie was nominated for the Venice Film Festival!" Zhu congratulated Wu Jianye with a happy face.
Wu Jianye asked with a smile: "Just a congratulation and that's it!"
Zhu lowered his head shyly, then raised his head, looked around carefully, and found that there was no one on the road, so he moved like a dragonfly on Wu Jianye's face...
Wu Jianye: "I remember I once said that it is the behavior of a good man to keep going back and forth. Now that I have been taken advantage of by you, should I return it?"
Zhu Ze jumped away from Wu Jianye like a frightened little rabbit and said shyly: "It's on the street!"
Wu Jianye knew that Zhu was still a bit conservative in this regard, so he did not tease her too much, but smiled and said: "Actually, this military medal is half of yours!"
Zhu Wei was startled: "Why?"
"If you hadn't come to see me on New Year's Day, how could I have had such great inspiration!"
.......
"I had a meeting in the courtyard yesterday. When I came back, it was too late, so I didn't call you!"
The next day, Wu Jianye called Gong back at the public phone booth.
"It's okay, I just called to congratulate you! That's great, congratulations!" Gong looked very excited on the phone, obviously she also got the news.
"In fact, this military medal also contains half of you!"
Gong on the other end of the phone also showed a puzzled expression. He didn't understand what contribution he had made to this movie. He took the phone and asked: "Why is there half of me?"
"If you hadn't come to see me on New Year's Day, how could I have had such great inspiration!"
