Senior Superstar

drop!

Received additional [Fear] [Shock] applause value, 9131 points!

In the square, as the old man knelt down and yelled, a systematic humming sounded in Li Shixin's ears instantly.

Glancing at the French veteran kneeling on the ground, Li Shixin smiled faintly.

The old man is very skillful in his movements.

I haven't lost the kung fu of my youth!

The sword is not old.

The juniors give you a thumbs up!

Just when Li Shixin was thinking about what would happen if Mr. Liu Feng was present, Tong Guaiguai had already run to his side amidst the applause of the spectators around him.

"Xin Ye, this is the first time I've heard someone play "House of Flying Daggers" with a Guzheng like this! You are amazing! How did you do it? This, this has completely surpassed the musical instrument. It's unique!"

drop!

Received the applause value of [worship], 688 points!

Seeing the surprised look on the little girl's film, Li Shixin was happy.

Musical instruments are dead, but music is alive.

The predecessor of the zither was a weapon, and it was later developed into a musical instrument. Therefore, there is a saying in the Han Dynasty; the zither player enjoys being horizontal, and becomes a soldier on the ground.

After fully mastering the guzheng playing technique and looking at it from the king's level, many things are different in Li Shixin's cognition.

"After you have mastered all the techniques, you will know. The essence of any musical instrument is to express people's emotions. If you have gold in your chest, you can play tens of thousands of horses and horses with a flute."

After thinking about it, he smiled and said to Tong obediently.

If someone else said this, Tong Guaiguai would definitely roll her eyes.

But just now, after listening to Li Shixin's Guzheng version of "House of Flying Daggers", she could only stare at the man with slightly long hair, deep eyes, and a peaceful smile in front of her.

It's amazing, it's simply amazing!

This is the real boss!

"Hello, what instrument is this gentleman playing? What is the name of the piece just now?"

"What does it describe? I feel that there seems to be a complete story in this piece of music."

"Oh my god, this is so cool. It's like a short film, I seem to see soldiers attacking and fighting, what kind of instrument is this? It's amazing! Can I take pictures with it?"

Looking at Tong Guaiguai who was clenching his small fist excitedly, and then looking at the tourists who were shocked by the song "House of Flying Daggers" and became interested in Guzheng and came to ask for a group photo, Li Shixin secretly smiled.

He couldn't understand the question asked by the foreigner.

Pulling the jacket from the arms of Tong Guaiguai who was clenched in small fists, Li Shixin patted Tong Guaiguai on the shoulder again.

"Music is an art of expression that doesn't need voice. I hope you can keep going. Come on."

It wasn't until he walked out of the crowd that he heard Tong Guaiguai's slightly excited voice behind him.

"Thank you, Lord Xin, I will!"

"The name of this musical instrument is Guzheng! It is a traditional Chinese musical instrument. It has a history of more than 2,000 years! During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods in China, it was already called Gentleman's Music by the world."

"The song that Mr. played just now is called "House of Flying Daggers". It is indeed as you think, it describes a war. But to be precise, it describes a period of history. It was in 202 BC in Western Chu The Battle of Gaixia between the Overlord Xiang Yu and the Han King Liu Bang! Just now, sir, I didn’t finish playing it. There are thirteen sections in this song, and in the form of music, it shows the panorama of the war for world supremacy.”

Under the surprised and bewildered gazes of a group of foreigners, Tong obediently raised her finger.

"Chu Overlord, you must not know what's going on, this is a warrior who is more powerful than Odysseus in "Odyssey"."

Standing in the small square, listening to Tong Guaiguai introducing the Overlord of Chu to the tourists in English, Li Shixin put his hands behind his back and walked towards the hotel humming a ditty.

...

When Li Shixin returned to the hotel, a group of old fans had already woken up.

In order to reverse the jet lag, no one dared to sleep for too long. Seeing a group of old fans staring at each other like eggplants, Li Shixin didn't bother, but asked the team at the operation and distribution center to take care of everyone and then returned to his room.

After one o'clock in the afternoon, accompanied by Xu Xiao and translator Xiao Zhang, Li Shixin accepted interviews from several domestic media.

The interview itself has nothing to say. When the domestic mainstream media interviews the shortlisted filmmakers of the film festival, they always use the same set of words, and they only pay attention to a few issues. It will never be separated from the three major issues of "what do you think of this film festival", "what do you think about being a finalist for this year" and "are you sure about winning the award".

God is sorry, Li Shixin wouldn't even want to answer such a question if it wasn't for the purpose of gaining a sense of presence in front of audiences and movie fans across the country.

Like all filmmakers and even tourists who come to participate in the film festival, as a first-time visitor to the Proximity Film Festival, Li Shixin does not know much more information than an ordinary tourist.

Whether you are sure of winning the prize is even more embarrassing.

Be humble and appear insecure.

Immodest, if you don't get a prize after nine days, what a slap in the face?

Among the set of speech skills, only the question of shortlisted impressions can be regarded as related to the movie.

After emphatically introducing the three shortlisted films "The Undertaker", "Only Love" and "Ling", and muddling away all other issues that have nothing to do with himself and the film, Li Shixin ended the first day of the media day.

After a day of adjustments, a group of old fans finally sorted out the jet lag, and each of them came alive like a loach in water.

In the next two days, Li Shixin officially started his trip to the Berlin Film Festival with his old fans.

Unlike domestic film festivals, film festivals in Europe sell tickets to tourists. As long as they are willing to spend money, tourists can also experience the feeling of walking the red carpet.

After spending a whole day with a group of old fans at the opening ceremony, Li Shixin finally waited for his favorite part of this film festival - the screening unit of the film festival!

According to the organizer's arrangement, "Actor" was scheduled on the first day of the screening, while "The Undertaker" and "Only Love" were scheduled on the third day of the competition.

Such an arrangement has both advantages and disadvantages.

Because the screening unit of the film festival is directly facing audiences, film critics and international film producers, the earlier a film is screened, the sooner it can enter people's attention and gain a reputation at the film festival.

However, for the competition for awards, generally, the more optimistic the jury is, the later the film will be shown in the screening. This arrangement, firstly, is to attract tourists to continue to pay attention, so that the wonderful movies will not be finished at the beginning of the screening, and secondly, it is also to set aside enough publicity windows for those movies that are expected to win awards.

In the hotel.

Looking at Li Shixin who tidied himself up and put on a slightly formal suit, Zhao Jinzhi couldn't help smiling.

"Isn't this too formal? I think European directors generally wear casual clothes during the screening. This way, after the screening, they will be more cordial when communicating with the audience."

"No."

After tidying up his tie, Li Shixin smiled coquettishly.

"Today's purpose is to sell the film! The screening is only played once, and a group of foreigners who don't understand Chinese at all rely on the subtitles to go through the plot. What can they see? This group of foreign audiences is the same thing, what is really needed today? It’s the film critics and film dealers who got the job done! When we come to the film festival, we can’t control the matter of winning awards, but we can still achieve the matter of selling films with hard work. I dress more formally, and it’s also for film critics. Make a good impression on people and filmmakers. If I dress up with a personality, they will think that I am not good at talking, so what should I do if I delay the sale of the film?"

Zhao Jinzhi couldn't laugh or cry when he smelled the rich smell all over Li Shixin's body.

"I really don't understand you. Other directors come to the film festival to win awards. Fortunately, you put so much emphasis on sales and distribution. You are like a businessman, not an artist at all."

"well."

Looking at Zhao Jinzhi who took over the tie and tidied it up carefully for him, Li Shixin chuckled.

"You're wrong again. Art is also for sale. It's all about fame and fortune. It's just that some people like to put on a little bit and let others catch up. I'm new here, take the initiative, Don’t be ashamed! The overseas distribution rights of the three films, sell them for three to five billion yuan if you make good use of them, wouldn’t it be good to use this money to make a big costly production?”

Li Shixin's logic left Zhao Jinzhi speechless.

After adjusting the silver and red silk tie, Zhao Jinzhi glared at him.

On the side, sitting cross-legged on the sofa with a lollipop snatched from Chen Boshi, An Xiao smiled and arched her little hands to Li Shixin.

"Teacher, I wish you a prosperous business and a wealth of wealth today!"

Li Shixin frowned when he heard the little Anshi blessing.

This is a good word, but how do you listen?

What's so bad about it?

Just when Li Shixin slapped his hands secretly, trying to convince himself, a traitor, with reason, someone knocked on the door of his room.

Hearing someone knocking on the door, An Xiaoxiao, who didn't realize that she was in danger, jumped out to greet her.

As soon as the door opened, Xu Xiao, the general manager of the operation and distribution center, broke in with excitement and excitement on his face.

"Ms. Li, good news! Good news!"

Seeing the happiness on Xu Xiao's face as if being taken care of by someone, Li Shixin was puzzled.

"What good news? The jury is planning to give me the Golden Bear award?"

"What! It's the overseas distribution rights of our three films!"

"oh?"

Hearing this, Li Shixin regained his spirits.

"Why, someone took the initiative to contact and talk about it?"

"More than that!"

Xu Xiao smiled and shook the phone in her hand.

"Just now I received a call from Mr. Leia Bibisi, the vice chairman of the jury and the famous director of Parrot Country. He said that he was very happy to see the news that Mr. Li was shortlisted. I want to invite you to have dinner alone! Mr. Li, Bibixi, Bibixi! In addition to being a famous director in Europe, he is also the art consultant of Sensai International Film and Television Distribution Company! As long as he nods, the overseas distribution of our three films will be stable! This is really going out to meet noble people , what a surprise!"

oh?

Hearing the news, Li Shixin touched his chin.

The old man still has such high-end fans?

Awesome!
