Deng Ziqi's mood is a bit complicated, how should I put it?
It's like two children who have a good relationship. She belongs to a better family and often brings some toys and snacks to share with Qin Xiaobao. Xiaobao doesn't have many other friends.
However, I suddenly discovered, eh!
Qin Xiaobao has changed. He has someone else outside who has better conditions than himself, and he can't help but feel a little bit disgusted.
Spielberg eh!
Are they ordinary people? No matter who they are in the Chinese entertainment industry, they will respect them and talk and laugh happily when they see them?
What he only dared to dream about, in the end, he did it.
Indeed, don’t bully young people into poverty.
You can understand it if you think about it.
A few years ago, no one in the Mainland knew about Deng Ziqi. She just participated in a program, which made her famous and her life.
Deng Ziqi naturally has selfish motives.
She even thought for a while that if Qin Xiaobao couldn't come back, it would be great to just write songs for her alone.
Because my thoughts were very selfish, I never told anyone, let alone showed them in front of the other person.
However, it seems that this expectation will never be realized. As far as the current situation is concerned, Qin Xiaobao's rise is unstoppable.
When he comes back, be sure to ask what the two of them talked about.
"Hey, Qin, we meet again."
"Good evening, director, have you eaten?"
"Oh, I ate. I know this is a habit of you Chinese people. I ate pizza."
"I heard that the lobster here is good, and I'm going to try it after I finish."
"What about the celebration party? What if I don't win the prize?"
"Then comfort yourself."
"You are in a good mood and wish you good luck."
"Thanks!"
The above is the conversation between Qin Xiaobao and the old man. It is very different from the plot imagined by the audience who are paying attention. There is no sympathy, no secret activities, and no calling of brothers.
The old man knows a lot of people, so if he can take some time to say hello, it's already a sign of respect.
Qin Xiaobao watched him leave. Xiang Yang, who was beside him, nudged him with his elbow: "Shouldn't you say some heroic words?"
"What?" Xiaobao didn't understand.
"In movies and novels, when most people encounter this kind of situation, they will say, give me some time, I will surpass him, and I will make the focus of the audience only on me."
"You're crazy!" Qin Xiaobao couldn't help complaining: "You have passed that age a long time ago, how come you still have the second grade disease?"
"Don't you envy him?"
"There is nothing to envy. I am only twenty years old. I am younger than him. Youth is capital."
"Yes," Xiang Yang nodded: "Lian Po is old, can he still make a living? Give him a few models, I don't know..."
"Hiss..." Xiaobao stared.
"Okay, okay, let's stop talking." Xiangyang said softly. He was just talking nonsense and looking for a topic.
At 8:15, as the grand music sounded, the lights gradually dimmed, and after the big screen flashed a few times, the promotional video and highlights of this film festival began to play.
"It's begun." Zhou Xiao's voice was slightly trembling. He was not shortlisted for any awards, but it did not hinder the sense of participation.
After a brief opening, two hosts came on stage. He knew the man, Bradley Cooper, the male protagonist in "The Hangover", but he was not familiar with the woman, a blonde beauty.
With Qin Xiaobao's English listening skills, it was almost impossible to understand what they were saying, but looking at the photos on the big screen, he could probably guess that they were looking back at history.
He sat upright with a smile on his face.
Liu Minghua reminded that in such a large venue, it is impossible to pay attention to whether the camera is filming you all the time. The best way is to smile.
After the host finished speaking, an old man came up. Xiaobao applauded. He knew this man, the film festival chairman Marco Muller.
The old man spoke for a while, then the audience stood up and applauded. He announced loudly that the first award in Venice this year, and a highly anticipated award, the Lifetime Achievement Award was won by Ermanno Olmi.
The director, who was born in the 1930s, walked onto the stage with trembling steps amidst the applause of the crowd.
In the past, Qin Xiaobao would watch similar awards ceremonies in front of the TV. To be honest, it was just for fun. Whatever made me cry or was too excited to speak, I thought it was all for show.
However, when I was immersed in the scene and listened to the old man on the stage delivering his acceptance speech in an excited tone, even if I couldn't understand it, I seemed to be able to feel the sincerity, the enthusiasm, and the passion for the movie.
love.
"Thank you, thank you everyone!" As the old gentleman expressed his thanks, the audience burst into thunderous applause and screams again.
Foreign award ceremonies are relatively compact, with a performance arranged in the middle. Unlike some small film festivals, which have become a performance stage for various idol groups and singers.
Of course, there’s no telling whether this is good or bad. Some viewers like it and some don’t.
Compared with before, the business atmosphere of the Venice Film Festival is much stronger. After all, holding such a large film festival is very expensive.
Some good locations have clearly marked prices and some subsidies.
Of course, compared with Oscar, it is still inferior.
People really have a lot of tricks. In the words of Lily Tomlin, who was once nominated for the Oscar for Best Actress, the Oscars are "the classics of American vulgarity." Some people also conclude that "nominations depend on ability, and winning depends on luck."
There are countless films submitted for Oscars every year, and there are hundreds of nominations alone. Many Academy members do not have the time and energy to watch all the films, which gives producers and distributors the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
The first thing to do is to expand the popularity. Mailing DVD films and booking screenings are normal operations. Inviting celebrities to the venue to build momentum will be extra points. It is not surprising for producers to hang out at various cocktail parties to increase their presence. In famous media such as "Variety Show"
, grabbing eyeballs on "Hollywood Report" is also essential.
There are also some more "high-end" methods. For example, sending DVDs with some small gifts, high-end dinners and luxurious accommodation after the screening, and even inviting judges to private parties to create scandals and smear opponents...
Spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to cultivate relationships has become commonplace. The most exaggerated example is that some films even missed out on the Best Picture Award after spending 20 million dollars.
The most famous thing is that a certain actress happened to be pregnant during the awards season. During the interview, the reporter asked her what she thought about the awards, and she kept saying "pregnancy".
It's simply terrible...
In comparison, Venice has a much better reputation, has not had any scandals, and has good credibility in the world.
Qin Xiaobao's heartbeat began to accelerate again. As usual, the next thing to be released was the horizon unit.
"The Tuner" was nominated for the Best Picture Award.
