1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 48 "Sunshine" became famous overseas, a breakup is better than a wedding!

In early September, Jiang Wen was doing post-production in Germany. On his first day in the mixing room, just as he was hanging up the film and getting ready to work, a call came. It was from Rome.

It was a Venice Film Festival film selector named Marco. He excitedly told Jiang Wen that your film had been selected for the Venice Film Festival and would premiere on September 9th.

Jiang Wen said: "This film hasn't been mixed yet."

Marco said: "Yes, so I want to congratulate you. Your film was selected without being mixed."

To Jiang Wen, this was like a joke. How could this be possible? Because in the history of the Venice Film Festival, this situation has almost never happened before.

Actually, there is another thing that Jiang Wen has never figured out: whether Jean-Louis gave the 10-minute tape to the film selectors at the Venice Film Festival, or Wen Jun and Shu Qi sent over the first cut of the film.

It was only after arriving in Venice that Jiang Wen breathed a sigh of relief, but something happened again. The English copy of the movie "Sunny Days" was lost.

Before that, Jiang Wen sent an English copy and an Italian copy through Lufthansa, because it was an international film festival with international judges, and they could only read the English version.

As a result, the scene that Jiang Wen showed to the judges was the Italian version, so many of the judges watched the film in confusion and could only nominate Xia Yu for Best Actor based on their general impressions.

Because the response was so enthusiastic, Jiang Wen thought he could win at least two or three prizes. Someone called Jiang Wen and told him, "Don't leave, you might win a prize." Jiang Wen asked, "What prize?"

To Xia Yu, it was like a policeman who won a gold medal for performing cross talk. It had nothing to do with his profession and was nothing to make a fuss about.

Taohong nodded and said aggrievedly: "I came over as soon as school was over in the afternoon. I wanted to see you right away, but you were not here. I was bored alone, so I listened to your song in the room and lay on the bed all night.

, almost fell asleep..."

Wang Jinghua had already found out Jiang Xiaofeng's details, and replied with a smile: "Xiao Feng, it's hard to be an actor agent now, and there aren't many film and television crews starting work in Yanjing, so you can just be your singer with peace of mind.

"

It is worth mentioning that in addition to being the agent of Jiang Xiaofeng and others, Wang Jinghua is also Chen Daoming's assistant. Through Chen Daoming's relationship, she also has a close cooperative relationship with the Yanjing film and television industry.

At this time, Taohong had just gone to school at the Central Academy of Drama. Because the school was quite far from home, she stayed at the school from Monday to Friday and went home on Saturdays and Sundays.

They said: "Now I'm telling you, there might be a Best Actor award."

Jiang Wen asked again: "What else is there? What else is there?"

Returning to the Asian Games Village, Jiang Xiaofeng saw the lights on in his rental house and thought his home had been robbed. When he opened the door, he realized it was Taohong.

They also asked Jiang Wen: "Do you think we are idiots? Is there anything you can't understand?"

Wang Jinghua sighed helplessly: "Xiao Feng, this is not a matter of money. The TV stations generally have a bad impression of you rock singers. They think you are a bunch of restless radicals who may cause trouble at any time and are not suitable.

On TV…”

Late at night.

"What? Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Jiang Xiaofeng knew that what Wang Jinghua said was true and stopped complaining. He looked out the window and fell into deep thought.

The next morning.

The reporter was surprised and asked Xia Yu: "You still don't know?"

The response was indeed quite enthusiastic, because Jiang Wen had participated in some film festivals before, and his impression was that Chinese filmmakers were always asked questions that had nothing to do with movies, such as political and intellectual issues, social issues, etc.

Xia Yu was stunned for a moment: "Ah? What do you know!"

In fact, after filming the movie "Sunny Days", Xia Yu returned to his hometown of Qingdao to continue high school, completely unaware that the film had been shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival.

"Also, you and I only signed a short-term contract of three months, and the cycle of film and television dramas is very long, and the return rate is too low to be worthwhile..."

Wang Jinghua said dumbfounded: "Xiao Feng, it's useless for you to tell me this. I told others the same thing. The problem is that they just don't buy it and are prejudiced against you rock singers. Unless one day, you can make them do something."

Change your outlook, otherwise, you won’t be able to get on the big stage.”

Jiang Xiaofeng smelled Taohong's fragrance, stroked her hair, and began to feel a little distracted, saying, "I went to a bar to perform, and I just came back."

All in all, "Blue Lotus" is Jiang Xiaofeng's must-sing song when he participates in commercial performances, but Jiang Xiaofeng's favorite song is "Those Flowers" released in cooperation with Dadi Records, but he generally does not take the initiative to sing this song

Song, unless requested by the organizer.

September 16, evening.

A few days after the movie "Sunny Days" won the award at the Venice Film Festival, Jiang Xiaofeng had just attended a commercial performance at Swing58, a newly opened bar on Sanlitun South Street.

As he spoke, Jiang Xiaofeng took Taohong into his arms.

Looking at the deserted street scene outside the car window, Jiang Xiaofeng said without saying anything: "Sister Hua, if you have any resources for movies or TV series, you can ask me to make them. I have acted in movies, and Jiang Wen made the movie ""

"Sunny Day", I am the second male lead."

Xia Yu was washing socks at home in Qingdao. A reporter came in and asked Xia Yu excitedly: "Do you understand?"

Hearing Tao Hong's words, Jiang Xiaofeng hugged Tao Hong tighter and said, "I'll have someone come over tomorrow to set up a phone call. If you want to come over then, call me in advance so that you won't wait so long in vain.

Already."

"By the way, Sister Hua, you also have connections at the TV station. Can you take me to the TV station to record my face? You can just go up and sing a song, it's free of charge!"

Because a few days before Jiang Xiaofeng participated in this commercial performance, the bar had posted a poster of Jiang Xiaofeng's upcoming performance. In this way, it was spread from one to ten, and within a few days, many young people in Yanjing knew that

Yes, there is a bar called "Swing58" on Sanlitun South Street.

An ordinary actor would have been so excited that he would be rolling on the ground, but Xia Yu was very calm and only said "oh".

Jiang Xiaofeng suddenly said: "I asked you why you are here."

Seeing how enthusiastic the foreigners were, Jiang Wen couldn't help but ask, "Do you understand?"

Like every previous commercial performance, "Blue Lotus" is Jiang Xiaofeng's must-sing song, followed by "With You in My Life", "Those Flowers", and then "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky",

Choose one of the two songs "I Believe".

Jiang Wen was speechless when asked.

Jiang Xiaofeng was thinking that since Wang Jinghua had this kind of relationship, he could ask Wang Jinghua to help him find a leading actor in a TV series or a leading actor in a movie.

Taohong snuggled into Jiang Xiaofeng's arms and asked pitifully: "Where did you go? Did you come back so late?"

This time it was different. Both the reporter and the audience were talking to Jiang Wen about the story in the movie, what was going on with these children, and what was going on with him through talking about the movie.

Xia Yu was even more stupid.

Jiang Xiaofeng said angrily: "They are beating a group of people to death with one stick. I don't know about others. Why did I become so radical? The songs I wrote are so inspiring. I think my songs are a bit too positive."

Due to his frequent participation in commercial performances, Jiang Xiaofeng has been traveling back and forth in Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and other places during this period. He has not seen Taohong for a while.

The bar called "Swing58" invited Jiang Xiaofeng to perform. In addition to attracting customers, it also wanted to use Jiang Xiaofeng's "star effect" to increase the bar's popularity.

After the business performance, Jiang Xiaofeng took a commercial vehicle that Wang Jinghua temporarily rented for him on his way back to the Asian Games Village.

Seeing Taohong suddenly appear in his rental house, Jiang Xiaofeng was overjoyed: "Why are you here? Don't you need to go to school?"

There are not many vehicles on the streets of Yanjing, and almost no people can be seen.

Although Jiang Xiaofeng has now become a popular singer in Yanjing, he still likes acting and does not want to be bound by the identity of a singer. He wants to be an all-round artist like Andy Lau, and develop together in film, television, singing and singing.

"Okay, I understand, are you tired now? Look, you have lost weight..." Taohong looked at Jiang Xiaofeng with a look of pity, and reached out to touch his cheek.

After listening to Wang Jinghua's long speech, Jiang Xiaofeng nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Because at this time, Xia Yu had no idea what the Venice Film Festival was. Before that, he had won many awards, all in the skateboarding category, but he had no idea what the Venice Film Festival was.

Then, the reporter told Xia Yu that he won the Venice Best Actor, which was a very high honor.

At this time, Xia Yu didn't have a pager, let alone a mobile phone. It was more than a week after the Venice Film Festival started, and the crew found Xia Yu and asked him to apply for a passport, visa, etc., but it was already too late.

Taohong smiled and replied: "No, tomorrow is Saturday."

Jiang Xiaofeng still didn't like others touching his face, so he smiled and grabbed Taohong's hand and said, "It's okay, I'm not tired. If you don't want to sleep, I can stay up with you until dawn."

Taohong didn't believe it at first, thinking that Jiang Xiaofeng was bragging. As a result, that night, Jiang Xiaofeng really stayed up all night and fought with her until dawn.
