Millennium director

Chapter 67 Back to school

The winter in the capital is still as cold as ever, and it is also the Spring Festival, so the city of Sijiu is obviously much bleaker than before.

However, the area near the Beijing Film Academy is extremely lively.

Although students have gone home to enjoy their vacation, February every year is the day for the art entrance exams in major art schools.

Art candidates and parents from all over the country surrounded the film school early in the morning.

On the outer edge, there are many media reporters who are looking around. When they meet a good-looking art candidate, they pick up their cameras and take pictures.

This time of year is the spring for Yangou in Beijing.

Many young guys and girls who have nothing to do with the art exam will come to the film academy to watch. Who doesn't like to watch beautiful and handsome guys?

But this year is a little different from previous years.

Early in the morning, several school security guards walked to the school gate with a long banner, stepped on the ladder and hung the banner under the banner that said "Warmly welcome all candidates to apply for our school."

[Warm congratulations to Wu Yuan, an outstanding student from our school, for winning the Best Director at the 52nd Berlin International Film Festival! 】

All the students and parents who came to take the art exam, as well as the reporters and passers-by who were watching, could clearly see the big words on the banner.

Then, they all showed expressions of realization.

The hottest topic in China during the Spring Festival this year, apart from Uncle Benshan's performance of "Selling Cars" at the Spring Festival Gala, is Wu Yuan's participation in the Berlin International Film Festival!

Newspapers of all sizes across the country gave Wu Yuan and "The Embalmer" front-page headlines!

Photos of Wu Yuan on the red carpet and holding the trophy on the awards podium were circulated both online and offline.

Not to mention these art candidates who are already sensitive to news in the entertainment industry, even the general public has been familiar with the word "Wu Yuan" in the past week.

Among the crowd gathered at the school gate, a mother with tall figure, delicate features and good temperament was looking up at the banner with her daughter.

Beauty is hereditary.

Since the mother is so beautiful and temperamental, the daughter's appearance will naturally not be much different, and she will be equally beautiful.

Even though she looks a little young, the baby fat on her face has not yet faded away.

But she still stood out among the girls taking the art exam, and the boys around her who also took the art exam couldn't help but peek at her.

It's just that she didn't care about these gazes at all, and her eyes were always focused on the banner that had just been pulled out.

"Mom, Director Wu is really amazing. He also filmed the movie "Juno" we watched when we were in the United States."

The little girl gently pulled her mother's sleeve, her eyes full of curiosity and admiration.

He became famous at a young age and won the Best Director in Berlin when he was less than 20 years old. The most important thing is that he is very good-looking!

Wu Yuan's experience of becoming famous and his excellent appearance will definitely make most women naturally attracted to him, and the same goes for young girls.

Her mother Liu Xiaoli also nodded: "He is indeed an outstanding young man. No director has ever won the Best Director Award under the age of 20, but he did it."

"Qian Qian, since you want to choose this career, Director Wu's famous experience is what you need to learn from."

"Study?" The little girl named Sissi's eyes were full of confusion: "He is a director. My goal is to be an excellent actor!"

"They are all the same." Liu Xiaoli shook her head and touched the girl's little head lovingly: "I hope you can learn from Director Wu's experience of becoming famous at a young age."

"In the entertainment industry, you have to start early to become famous. The earlier you start, the more likely you are to succeed in a shorter period of time!"

"Look at him, he has become an internationally renowned director before he was 20 years old. He will have countless opportunities for trial and error in the future, and he will have ample and free time to realize his artistic ambitions.

"Human life is limited, and time is one of the most precious resources."

"If you spend too much time becoming famous, you will not be able to go far in the entertainment industry."

"Oh" the little girl nodded in understanding, muttering in her heart, isn't there a saying that one is a late bloomer?

Suddenly, a burst of chaotic shouting interrupted the mother and daughter's chat, and both of them turned their heads and looked over.

"The car is coming! The car is coming!"

"Hurry up!"

"Where are the cameras, carry them all!"

I saw a black Santana drive quietly to the school gate, but a group of reporters rushed towards the car like sharks smelling the smell of blood.

Just when the mother and daughter were curious about who was coming and making the reporter so excited, Santana's car door opened, and a figure who had appeared frequently in newspapers recently got out of the car.

"He has returned to China?" Liu Xiaoli thought with some surprise.

Beside her, Sissi stared blankly at the figure getting out of the car, feeling equally surprised.

"The real person is more handsome and stylish than the photos in the newspaper!"

Under the protection of school security guards, Wu Yuan finally squeezed through the school gate.

He didn't even dare to stop and look at the banner held specially for him by the school, and hurriedly ran towards the directing department building, for fear of being stopped by reporters behind him.

Fortunately, the security guards were dedicated enough and reporters did not dare to force their way into the university. Wu Yuan quickly returned to the directing department.

Different from the busy situation in the acting department building next door, the directing department was obviously much deserted. Wu Yuan went up to the fifth floor smoothly, where the directing department office is.

From the deputy dean, Professor Xie Fei, to the teacher Hou Keming who led Wu Yuan's class, all the professors and teachers in the entire directing department are waiting here.

As soon as he entered the door, Wu Yuan just took out the silver bear from his arms. In a trance, the silver bear in his hand disappeared and appeared in the hand of Xie Xiaojing, the head of the department.

"This silver bear is rare. Xiao Wu, you are the first mainland director to win Berlin's Best Director!"

Just in this office, there is a big shot who won the Berlin Film Festival's grand prize.

For example, Professor Xie Fei, the deputy dean, was a judge at the Berlin Film Festival last year.

Why can he be a judge?

Because Professor Xie Fei won the Golden Bear for Best Film in 1993 and the Silver Bear for Outstanding Artistic Contribution in 1990.

Further down the line, outstanding alumni of the Film School have also won the Berlin Silver Bear.

Wang Xiaoshuai won the Silver Bear Grand Jury Award last year, and the year before last this award was also won by a mainland film, "My Father and Mother" directed by Yimou!

Even director Yimou won the Golden Bear for Best Picture!

However, no mainland director has ever won Best Director Yin Xiong.

However, last year Baodao's Lin Zhengsheng won the Berlin Best Director for "Love You Love Me".

Further back in 1996, Hong Kong director Yan Hao also won the Berlin Best Director Award.

But they are outsiders after all. Now that someone from the Film Academy has won the Best Director in Berlin, it definitely feels different.

This is the contribution of their directing department! It’s a real achievement of outstanding training!

Every teacher pulled Wu Yuan to take a photo with the Silver Bear trophy, smiling so hard that they couldn't close their mouths.

Of course, the teachers didn't call Wu Yuan back to school just for a group photo.

A few minutes later, after everyone had finished taking photos with Wu Yuan, Xie Xiaojing took Wu Yuan to sit down in the office and got down to business.

Opening the thermos cup, blowing out the tea foam and taking a sip of hot tea, Xie Xiaojing put down the thermos cup and looked at Wu Yuan with a serious expression:

"Xiao Wu, I asked you to go back to school today. The main reason is that I have something to inform you."

"After rigorous selection and decision-making through research and discussion in the department, congratulations on your qualification to study for a doctoral degree without examination."

"That's the direct quota."

"Now, you can first choose the doctoral supervisor you want to follow."

"Professor Xie Fei, Professor Zheng Dongtian, Professor Hou Keming, Professor Yang Lin and me, you choose one of the five doctoral supervisors."

In the office, five tutors with doctoral qualifications, including Xie Xiaojing, all looked at Wu Yuan with half-smiling faces.

Yes, the heroine is Liu Yifei. I know there are too many entertainment articles about her as the heroine in Qidian.

But I still want to give it a try.

To be honest, there are only a few entertainment novels that really establish her character, and most of them are just background panels.

I wanted to write a lively and interesting love story, a different Liu Yifei.

I don’t dare to say that it can reach the heights of "Literary Times", but it will definitely not be bad.

Of course, the current heroine is still young, which does not mean that if she appears now, she will fall in love with the hero immediately.

A complete love story must have a process of getting to know each other, and then the relationship will gradually sublimate.

Finally, the love line is the sub-line of this book. The main line is career. Readers who don’t like love dramas don’t worry. This book is still career-oriented. The plot is divided into seven and three. The seventh is career and the third is career. love.
