After his parents came to the United States, Li Yi basically became a redundant person.
What made Li Yi even more depressed was that Xu Nannan also rebelled. She didn't know how to resist her mother-in-law's hegemony, but she actually cooperated extremely well.
As a result, Li Yi spent this period of time really suffering.
Not only that, because as a pregnant woman, certain needs begin to appear after three months of pregnancy.
Of course Li Yi is not that irritable, but he can't stand Xu Nannan's ears and temples rubbing together. Of course, he is still very careful.
The next day, Xu Nannan was glowing with glory, but Li Yi was miserable. His mother grabbed his ears and scolded him severely for a long time.
Xu Nannan is obviously the culprit. He is really just a "tool man". After all, he doesn't dare to let go.
But Xu Nannan watched her mother scolding her but she didn't mean to help at all. Instead, she watched with relish when Li Yi was scolded by Yi Lingling, who was a kind mother and a filial son.
Not only that, my mother even kicked people out.
"Didn't you say that there is a movie being filmed? Why don't you go back quickly? Not only are you unable to help me here, but you are also making trouble for me. Hurry up, be quick and pack your things and go back." Yi Lingling was only thinking about it.
Where does Li Yi's status lie with his precious granddaughter?
However, Li Yi did not go back. The main reason was that since he had gone abroad, he naturally wanted to visit He Shuhua. Although for the time being, Li Yi did not know what movie he wanted to make or whether he wanted to go for a Grand Slam.
But people still have to visit.
He Shuhua was from the era of Li Yi and his father.
However, He Shuhua, who is obviously well maintained and pampered, is almost sixty years old, but looks like she is in her forties.
Regarding the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin International Film Festival, Li Yi is naturally more interested in the opportunity.
Especially for next year's Berlin International Film Festival, as the chairman of the jury, He Shuhua naturally knows more about the direction of this film festival.
It mainly depends on the selection of other judges for the main competition unit.
Although for the time being, the list has not been completely finalized, as the chairman of the jury, He Shuhua knows more than others.
He Shuhua seemed very happy to visit Li Yi.
"It's rare that after the decline of Hong Kong films, Hong Kong Island can still produce a director like you." Ho Shuhua said with a look of admiration.
Li Yi was naturally humble, and after the two chatted and exchanged business blows, they got down to business.
"Next year is indeed an opportunity, but what kind of movies are you planning to make to compete for awards?" He Shuhua obviously also pays attention to Li Yi.
In fact, although the Berlin International Film Festival has not officially announced the list of judges for this year's main competition unit, the appointment of He Shuhua as the chairman of the jury has already been decided.
"I don't have a clue yet. Didn't I come to you for advice?" Li Yi said awkwardly.
"Actually, even if you don't come to me, I will come to you after a while. Do you know why?" He Shuhua asked with a smile.
"Huh? Please give Ms. He some advice." Li Yi was a little confused.
"Actually, it's nothing. The three major European film festivals are very involved. You should know this." He Shuhua said with a smile.
Li Yi nodded. The three major film festivals in Europe are not only deeply involved. It can be said that if the Academy Awards are the only one, then the three major European film festivals are in the same category.
Naturally, they are a group of powerful people, poaching each other, trying to outdo each other, and so on.
It can be said that Li Yi's success in winning the award has a lot to do with the involvement in the three major film festivals.
"You won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival, and you have already won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It can be said that the only thing left is the Berlin Golden Bear. When can you win the award?
It is said that everyone is paying attention, but whether you can create history and become the first person in the Grand Slam is also attracting the attention of the world." He Shuhua analyzed with a smile.
Li Yi nodded, this is obvious.
"So do you think, given the force field of the Berlin International Film Festival, they will want you to win the award?" He Shuhua suddenly looked at Li Yi and asked.
Li Yi thought for a while and shook his head: "Maybe he just hopes that I can win the prize, but he definitely doesn't hope that I will win the prize for the first time."
This is an obvious thing. With Li Yi's fame, whether Li Yi can pull off grand slam stunts, etc., it can be said that as long as his works compete for the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin International Film Festival, he will naturally attract a lot of attention.
It will definitely be of great help in increasing the influence of the Berlin International Film Festival.
Unlike before, whether it was the Cannes Film Festival or the Venice Film Festival, Li Yi didn't have such a big gimmick at that time.
But now there is only one left who can achieve the unprecedented feat of a Grand Slam. This also makes the Berlin Golden Bear Award directly reach the highest value for Li Yi, which is higher than the Academy Award.
Because even if Li Yi wins another Academy Award, he still won't be able to complete a Grand Slam achievement.
In the same way, no matter how many more Palme d'Or and Golden Lion awards you win, you can only share such achievements with a group of people.
Therefore, the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin International Film Festival has really become a rare commodity.
As long as Li Yilai is attracted to compete for the Golden Bear Award, he can gain a lot of attention and gain huge exposure and topics. This temptation is also difficult to resist for the Berlin International Film Festival.
And as long as they hang on to Li Yi and give him awards, but not the Golden Bear, they can achieve sustainable development for several years.
Therefore, from this perspective, it is at least several levels more difficult for Li Yi to win this award.
Of course, the selection of awards mainly depends on the judges of the jury, but the Berlin Film Festival Organizing Committee can still influence this.
Because they don't want the judges to give the award to Li Yi, but they want them not to give it to Li Yi.
This is much simpler.
After all, judges are also human beings and have their own interests.
"So, I say next year is your best opportunity, because they invited me to be the chairman of the jury, so to a certain extent, it is actually for you." He Shuhua said with a smile.
"Isn't that true? Do I have such a big influence?" Li Yi still felt a little ridiculous.
He Shuhua shook her head and said: "Don't take these film festivals too seriously. After all, they happen once a year. At the same time, don't underestimate your influence too much, especially the grand slam gimmicks, which are natural to the media."
Hype material.”
"However, although the chairman of the jury has more say than other judges, he cannot directly decide the award. So if you want to win the award, it is not that simple."
Li Yi finally understood that the Berlin International Film Festival Organizing Committee was playing dirty tricks. You see, He Shuhua served as the chairman of the jury for the main competition unit. This is definitely a huge benefit for Li Yi and even for Chinese-language films.
ah.
Are you coming?
If you come, there is definitely a chance of winning the award, but equally, if you come, the chance of winning the Golden Bear is still very small!
