Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Cheng Cong also returned to the hotel where he was staying. Cheng Cong took a shower, put on pajamas, and then lay in the hotel checking his phone or chatting with friends on WeChat.

"Cheng Cong, you are on the entertainment hot search." Her friend Zhang Lan left a message.

What?

She jumped up and quickly opened the hot search, and sure enough she saw a message: Yu Dongqing and Cheng Cong walked the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival!

It’s really on!

Although she is not alone.

There is also a picture of Yu Dongqing and Cheng Cong walking side by side on the red carpet. The man is very handsome and the woman is very beautiful.

The comments from netizens below are also full of discussion.

Anyone guess what their relationship is?

Someone asked Cheng Cong what works he produced and was invited to Venice?

Some people also ridiculed Cheng Cong for not only going to Venice to enjoy the red carpet, but also dragging Yu Dongqing along to enjoy other people's popularity.

Cheng Cong was not angry when he saw it but was ecstatic.

My goal was achieved!

Thank you very much.

Cheng Cong was filled with gratitude.

After thinking about it, she wrote something on her Weibo.

I came to Venice to attend the film festival a few days ago. I was honored to walk the red carpet with teacher Yu Dongqing. It felt really good.

Next up is @Yu Dongqing.

Of course Yu Dongqing will not return.

Not only did she not reply to Cheng Cong's words, but she also didn't reply to the questions from fans on her Weibo.

I just briefly said that I would come to Venice to attend a friend's wedding and attend the film festival.

Except for explaining this matter to his wife Meiliang, you can ignore what others say.

Yu Dongqing told Meili that night.

After separating from Cheng Cong, Yu Dongqing returned to the hotel by boat and started video chatting with Meili while lying on the bed.

"Husband, you are on the trending search again, together with Cheng Cong!" A bright smiling face appeared in the video.

Um?

"What about the red carpet?"

"Yes, many netizens ask what your relationship is."

"What's the relationship? Probably not even ordinary friends." Yu Dongqing smiled.

"Others don't think so. Some people say that Cheng Cong is a vixen who has fallen in love with you." Meili sneered.

"Really? I am Tang Monk now, not to mention the vixen, even the king of the daughter country can't seduce me!" Yu Dongqing also joked.

"Oh, my poor husband can only eat vegetarian food and not meat. I know Italian girls are very passionate."

"Real gold is not afraid of fire. Okay, don't talk about this. Wife, please turn the camera down and let me see your belly."

"what?"

"See if my belly is bigger."

"Yes, it's bigger and rounder, look at it."

"Pull up your pajamas."

"what?"

"See more clearly"

"rogue!"

But the white, round belly still appeared in the video.

The closing ceremony of this year's Venice Film Festival is September 8, and this year's major awards will be awarded at the Film Palace on this day.

It's a striking moment.

Today, Yu Dongqing specially wore a black suit, white shirt, and bow tie to enter the movie palace, and found his seat under the guidance of the waiter.

There was a beautiful girl with brown hair sitting next to her. When Yu Dongqing sat down, she nodded politely and sat down.

"Are you Mr. Yu Dongqing?" The girl looked at him and suddenly spoke in English.

Yu Dongqing was a little surprised.

This is my first time attending the Venice Film Festival, and I am not famous enough that everyone knows me.

"I am Yu Dongqing, who are you?"

"My name is Haili, an American actress. I have watched the movie "Chinese Youth" you filmed," Haili said.

"Do you like it?" Yu Dongqing asked.

"To be honest, I don't quite understand your Chinese way of educating children, but this film was shot very well, using a rare "frame composition" - other objects serve as the foreground to form a frame, framing the subject. Being framed inside allowed me to understand the depression and tightness in the girl’s heart in the film.”

"Thanks."

The other party looked at it very seriously.

"But what I like most is not the movie, but the theme song "Oh, Be Good". I didn't expect that China also has awesome reggae music!"

It turns out that Haili is not only an actress, but also a fan of reggae music. She once participated in a reggae music band.

After listening to Haili's words, Yu Dongqing smiled and said: "Our country not only has reggae, rock and hip-hop, but most of the music forms in the world have fans in our country. Of course, we also have our own music."

The two chatted, and the awards ceremony began. The atmosphere was warm, and the organizer also specially invited the Venice Symphony Orchestra to accompany them.

Orchestra leader and conductor Francesco's shiny bald head.

A black-haired mixed-race girl is today's host. The first thing to announce is the main competition unit award, which is commonly known as the Golden Lion Award for Best Film and the Silver Lion Award for the Jury Award, as well as the Best Director, Best Silver Lion Award, and Best Film Award. Good men, actresses Volpi cup, etc.

The winner of the Golden Lion this year is an Iranian director.

The Cannes Film Festival focuses on the balance between business and art, while the Berlin Film Festival hovers between politics and art. The Venice Film Festival pays more attention to art, experimentation and innovation, and appears to be particularly niche.

In the original time and space, Chinese-language films won the Venice Golden Lion eight times, Zhang Yimou and Ang Lee twice each, as well as two directors from Baodao, and Chief Jia's "The Good Man", the last one was Song Dandan's My adopted daughter took the photo, but it’s okay not to mention it.

There are two best films in the Horizon section, but they are both unpopular literary and artistic works.

Various awards in the main competition unit were handed out one after another. During the performance of the Venice Symphony Orchestra, the winners walked to the podium, received their awards and delivered acceptance speeches.

Next up is the Horizon Unit Awards.

Compared with the well-known directors of the shortlisted films in the main competition section, the directors of the shortlisted films in the Horizon section are basically unknown.

On the contrary, Yu Dongqing stands out from the crowd - a short film once won the Best Short Film Award.

"Mr. Yu, the winner of the Best Picture Award this time must be you." Haili whispered in Yu Dongqing's ear.

"Why?" Yu Dongqing asked.

"There are rumors outside that this time the winner of the Horizon Award for Best Film will be an Oriental."

Yeah?

But this time the Best Picture nominee is a Korean film, right?

Oh, sitting in front of me, with small eyes and a serious smile.

Yu Dongqing has seen that movie, which is a bit like the original time-space Korean movie "The Crucible".

Korean directors have always been bold in making films.

Of course, Yu Dongqing only regarded Haili's words as comfort.

Unexpectedly, what Haili said came true, and "Youth of China" won the Best Film Award in the Horizon Section of this Venice Film Festival!

applause.

The Korean director sitting in the front row took the initiative to turn around and shake hands with Yu Dongqing to express his congratulations.

Yu Dongqing stood up, straightened her tie and walked towards the stage.

Music plays in the background.

What made Yu Dongqing dumbfounded was that it turned out to be her own song "Ah, Goodbye, Friend".

Yu Dongqing also saw Francesco smiling at himself while conducting the band.

Fortunately, I am going to receive the award and not go to the battlefield.

Thanks to 20180101091923220, Chi Yufei, and it’s raining again tonight for voting.
