That year Huayu
Chapter 35 Closing Ceremony
Gu Changwei was very humble when interviewed, but the heroine of "Peacock" is different.
When Zhang Jingchu was asked about her confidence in winning the prize, she praised Gu Changwei directly and took the initiative to mention "Into the Dust", which is also from China.
"I don't think this film can pose a threat to "Peacock". Director Gu has been working with great directors like Director Zhang and Director Chen for a long time. Many of his films have won international awards. Even if there is competition, we are competing with other foreign films. "
Lin Nan thinks this woman has a bad mind. Why are you trying to step on me when you have nothing to do?
The manuscript has been published on domestic portals.
"The lead actor of "Peacock" is not optimistic about "Into the Dust", which means he is not qualified."
"The feud between the heroines of the two movies..."
Jiang Wenli didn't go out of the hotel room that afternoon, but she seemed to be yelling on the phone for a long time.
It is unknown whether Gu Changwei warned Zhang Jingchu, but the latter never gave an interview again.
Lin Nan has always refused to be interviewed, and ran away several times to avoid being blocked by portal reporters.
The opening ceremony of the film festival is getting closer, and all the films shortlisted for the competition have been announced.
The side-by-side panorama unit and forum unit cannot compete with the popularity of the competition unit.
As the director of "Into the Dust", Lin Nan was invited to watch the opening film "Legend of the Savages". As the opening film, this film is very competitive.
From the collision of two civilizations, the contact, communication, exchange and trust between humans and savages, the film shows the savages' clear love and hatred. The theme finally returns to human nature and the soul.
Lin Nan knew the nature of the Berlin Film Festival. Most of the works that could compete here would have a heavy side, but he didn't expect that it would be an educational film about human nature and beastiality.
As the chairman of the jury, Roland Emmerich gave a speech to thank the filmmakers who gathered here from all over the world, and ensured that all shortlisted films will be scored absolutely fairly in the next ten days.
According to prior communication with the organizer, "Into the Dust" will have its world premiere in Berlin together with a dozen other films.
After the opening ceremony, the jury will begin to read the films, while the trade fair is in full swing outside.
Three film producers have already made offers to Lin Nan. They are from Europe, North America and Asia.
The works that can be shortlisted for the competition unit will not have to worry about selling, but the price will be different.
The lowest of the three offers was from Asia, and the highest offer was US$2.2 million from Europe, which bought out the rights throughout Europe.
It only cost 3 million when the shoot was completed, and the exchange rate is less than 400,000 US dollars. If you agree to the other party, you will make about five times the profit, and this is only in Europe.
There are still ten days left for the film festival, and Lin Nan will definitely have to wait.
We have already reached the stage of jury voting. If we are lucky enough to win a certain award, we will make a lot of money.
As time goes by, all the films that can be sold in the film festival exhibition hall have been sold, and the remaining ones have to find other ways.
The films in other unit modules have also been sold to a greater or lesser extent, and the rest is in the competition unit.
Movie producers are all eyeing this, and some are even placing bets in advance.
I don’t know who leaked some information, but Gu Changwei’s “Peacock” was well received by the jury and is a strong contender for the Golden Bear.
For a while, the domestic media was extremely excited, publishing one report after another. People who didn't know it thought "Peacock" had won the Golden Bear.
Lin Nan meets with many film producers every day. Most of the works shortlisted for the competition have not yet been traded, and everyone is waiting.
He didn't care at all about domestic media reports. Putting aside the two best-selling commercial films, his qualifications were indeed incomparable with Gu Changwei's, and he admitted this.
If I remember correctly, "Peacock" won an award. As for what award it was, Lin Nan was not very impressed, but it probably wasn't the Golden Bear.
Now he only cares about whether "Into the Dust" can achieve something, so that he can slap the media in the face.
Registration for the art exam is about to begin, and Lin Nan, who is in Berlin, is also one of the school's focuses.
Even Liu Yifei would send him text messages to cheer him up every day and occasionally call him.
The jury is having a heated debate, and each award is decided by vote, but there are always some films with the same votes, and double-yolked eggs are very damaging to the credibility of the film festival.
When an award has the same number of votes and the number of votes is the highest, the jury will need to re-examine the film and re-vote, which is also time-consuming.
The time came on the 18th. On this day, Lin Nan was sending emails to Tom in the hotel, and the official call of the film festival came, inviting him and the crew to attend the closing ceremony.
After confirming the news again and again, Lin Nan jumped up excitedly.
After quickly replying to Tom's email, Lin Nan left the room.
Knocked on the doors of Li Baotian and Jiang Wenli one after another to inform them of the good news.
At the awards ceremony, films that enter each module can usually attend, as well as well-known filmmakers and media from various countries.
But there is a tacit unspoken rule. If a film is specifically notified to participate in the awards ceremony before the closing ceremony, it means there is an award waiting for you.
Even though Li Baotian was calm, he also showed joy. Jiang Wenli swept away the previous haze and waited for the award ceremony.
China Film Group was well-informed, and they found out within a few hours after Lin Nan and Gu Changwei were invited to attend the closing ceremony.
That night, the Korean General Production Bureau invited two crews, mainly two directors.
Li Baotian didn't like socializing, and Jiang Wenli refused.
When Lin Nan arrived at the scene, he happened to meet Gu Changwei. Miraculously, he was also a person.
"Hello, Director Gu." Lin Nan stepped forward to say hello.
Gu Changwei is not young, and he already looks old. When he saw Lin Nan, he also seemed friendly and said, "Director Xiao Lin."
The smile on his face completely fits the image of an elder.
Lin Nan was wondering how this generation of directors managed to maintain themselves. They were all so energetic and unattractive, they gave birth to children, they were secretive.
Lin Nan and Gu Changwei entered together, slightly half a body behind, with someone in front leading the way.
Mr. Han and two middle-level executives from China Film Group were discussing the harvest from this film festival and potential films.
Gu Changwei and Lin Nan were brought in, and Mr. Han was not surprised that they were alone, without the main creator.
During this time, everyone was gossiping about the grudges between the heroines of the two films, and Gu Changwei was the center of the gossip.
"First of all, I would like to congratulate you two in advance. Being invited to the award ceremony, a trophy is definitely destined."
The two of them took their seats, and Mr. Han told them to start serving food. It turned out to be Chinese food.
"Peacock" is different from "Into the Dust". The latter only passed the project review and did not apply for a release permit after the filming was completed. "Peacock" will be released in China on the 18th, and today is the first day.
The distributor must be China Film Group, and I only hope that the good news on the 20th will stimulate the movie box office.
When Lin Nan made "Into the Dust", he did not calculate his director's fee and screenwriter's fee, so the cost was controlled at 3 million. The cost of "Peacock" was over 10 million. For this kind of film, it is difficult to box office. To get your money back, you have to sell copyrights.
The domestic release of "Peacock" was discussed at the dinner table. If it had been postponed for a few more days, the situation would have been different.
Gu Changwei has no regrets. He desires awards more than box office. As long as he wins awards, he will not lose money.
The topic turned to Lin Nan. "Into the Dust" premiered in Berlin, and not a second was deleted.
Gu Changwei also watched it. The filming is indeed excellent and the story selection is very clever. The jury will like it, but it is not easy to pass the level of the General Administration.
Lin Nan also contacted the teachers of the directing department two days ago, hoping that the school could help him during the review. Some of the committee members still have close ties with the school.
"When the time comes to apply for a release permit, I will also help you take a look." This is Han Sanping's promise.
The domestic distribution of "Into the Dust" naturally went to China Film Group Corporation. It was considered an in-depth cooperation, and it was actually an exchange, but in the end it was Lin Nan who took advantage.
After the awards ceremony is over and I return to China, I will start applying for a release permit for "Into the Dust" and will discuss the release date later.
At the dinner table, Lin Nan and Han Sanping had agreed on "Into the Dust". As for Mr. Ren's inquiry, he could only apologize.
This dinner was also the first contact between Lin Nan and Gu Changwei. Lin Nan learned a lot from this master about some techniques in film photography, composition and color.
When the time came on the 20th, Jiang Wenli also had some endorsements, so she didn't have to worry about the dress, and the sponsor even paid for her appearance.
Li Baotian is very stable and casual, just wearing a Chinese tunic suit.
Lin Nan did not accept any endorsements, and also declined sponsorship from some brands on this red carpet. He thought Li Baotian's tunic suit was good, so he also wore one.
China Film and its team will also go to the closing ceremony. As a blockbuster producer backed by a huge market, they have a very high status.
The red carpet starts at two o'clock in the afternoon, and the participating films, guests, producers, social organizations of each module... Even if the appearance is only a few minutes, the number of people is so large that it will take an afternoon to complete the red carpet process.
"Into the Dust" is a work in the main competition unit, and the red carpet time is scheduled in the second half. Although there is no distinction between high and low in art, it cannot be denied that the most exciting part of the film festival is the competition.
Everyone talks about art, but their eyes are focused on the trophy.
No matter what time of day you walk on the red carpet, you have to arrive early.
The vehicles that can enter the venue today are all sponsor brands designated by the organizer.
Lin Nan, Li Baotian and Jiang Wenli took an extended commercial vehicle from the hotel to the closing ceremony venue.
It's not far from Tell the Truth, and you can see a lot of media vehicles and movie fans along the way.
When Lin Nan and his party arrived at the waiting area, the red carpet was about to begin. The host was introducing the results of this film festival, how many participating films there were, how many regional and national filmmakers, and some participating celebrities.
In the waiting area, Lin Nan saw the crew of the same module, "A Cloud in the Sky" from Wanwan, and nodded as a greeting.
Several European directors communicated with Lin Nan in English, praising the sincere emotions and revelation of humanity in "Into the Dust". Finally, they talked about Zhang Yimou in a twist, which made Lin Nan very embarrassed.
From a distance, he saw that the crew of "Peacock" had also arrived. Gu Changwei led a group of creatives into the waiting area.
Zhang Jingchu, wearing a long skirt, took Gu Changwei's arm and walked in with high spirits.
