That year Huayu
Chapter 7 In Berlin
Sure enough, within a few days, Lin Nan received a call from Director Li.
That day Wang Jinghua said that Li Yang sent the film to Berlin, and this was the content of the phone call.
Li Yang even asked Lin Nan if he wanted to come over and have fun, as he could still afford the latter's food and accommodation.
Lin Nan said he would think about it and call him back when the time came, and left the contact information of the hotel where Li Yang lived.
Lin Nan remembered the director's promotional method, holding the posters he printed and posting them everywhere. During the competition process, my contact information was left out of the film festival address book, almost becoming a "black account."
During this phone call, Lin Nan specifically reminded him of this matter, and was scolded by Li Yang for looking down on him.
Lin Nan was a little excited. She could go and see it during the few days when the awards were presented. It should be during the Spring Festival.
As for the travel expenses, I think my father would finance such a showy thing, after all, it would allow him to boast for a while.
Lin Nan took the time to buy a mobile phone. This year's Nokia 7650 cost all the salary given by Director Li Yang, and he still paid two thousand yuan for it.
When I returned to school, my father noticed that I had lost a lot of weight, so he gave me an extra month's living allowance.
Just like that, I used it all to buy a mobile phone. It was the first mobile phone launched by Nokia in China with a built-in digital camera.
In Lin Nan's opinion, this mobile phone cannot be compared with future generations, but this is a rare thing, especially the ability to take pictures.
After applying for a phone card, before Lin Nan could call his father, Zhu Yawen took it to play with.
When Lin Nan found him, Lao Zhu was taking photos of himself and a girl. The back of his phone was facing Zhu Yawen and a female classmate, and he just pressed it.
You also need to check whether the angle of the photo is correct and whether it is captured correctly.
"I said yes, so I got addicted to filming," Lin Nan complained angrily.
"Wait a moment, Zhou Yang and I will take another photo." Lao Zhu completely ignored Lin Nan's urging and waved to Zhou Yang in the distance.
The few people had a great time, and finally dragged Lin Nan in. Not to mention, it really had that kind of atmosphere.
If you take it out from now on, it will be a memorable campus life.
Campus life is intoxicating, but students are still rushing around the school and outside, looking for a way out. There are many who shoot for magazines, talk to film crews, and there are also many who do small roles.
With the country joining the World Trade Organization last year, the film and television industry has become more active.
A professor published a paper: With the further opening of the market, the film and television industry is facing unprecedented opportunities and challenges...
The film and television industry is one of the industries hardest hit, but it should have a positive attitude.
Lin Nan knew that the two decades of rapid development were about to begin.
In mid-December, "Hero" was released. For a while, the media and newspapers were overwhelming with news about "Hero".
Zhang Guoshi's first commercial blockbuster created a box office miracle with a cast that exceeded expectations and a rich and colorful image style.
Lin Nan and Zhu Yawen went to see it together. They were accompanied by Zhou Yang and Jiang Yiyan. Other classmates and alumni sat far away.
At the beginning of the movie, everyone was shocked by the colors, until several big stars appeared, Wuming, Canjian, Feixue...
The King of Qin summoned Wu Ming to tell the story of the assassination of the Three Musketeers, ten steps ahead of the King of Qin's highest standards...
"It's majestic and majestic. This is an epic masterpiece." Zhu Yawen muttered beside Lin Nan. Almost everyone in the cinema praised it.
A group of film school students were all stunned, imagining what it would be like to be someone in it.
After leaving the cinema, Lin Nan was still whispering, "I also want to make a movie directed by Zhang." Jiang Yiyan and Zhou Yang were chattering.
"Linzi, why haven't you said anything?" Zhu Yawen put her arm around Lin Nan's shoulders and asked.
Lin Nan glanced at him and said, "What can I say? Damn it, the photo was so awesome!"
Looking at "Heroes" from the perspective of future generations, it is an epoch-making masterpiece and a pioneer in domestic large-scale production. No matter from which point of view, it is successful.
But the news from the media is not like this. Film critics and some ordinary audiences have simply criticized it verbally.
It is said that it is too magical, too fantasy, too pretentious, and too real. It tells three stories, and in the end it just excuses the authoritarian tyrant.
When Lin Nan heard Zhu Yawen talking about this matter, he even cursed a few times.
What happened to the First Emperor? Without the First Emperor, there would be no unification.
But Lin Nan was helpless.
At this time, the First Emperor is still a despised tyrant, Zhu Yuanzhang is still a shoe horn, and the Ming Dynasty still only has the bad reputation of Jin Yiwei and Dongchang.
On the contrary, "Yongzheng Dynasty" and "Kangxi Dynasty" let ordinary people see the story of the Qing Dynasty, so "good"!
I don’t know why, but foreigners think highly of “Hero”.
A month later, the domestic box office reached 200 million, and the global box office reached 150 million US dollars.
With the disclosure of this data, the ridicule has become smaller.
But the film and television industry is on fire, especially China Film Group, various film companies, and eager directors.
Lin Nan returned home during the winter vacation. A few days ago, he received a call from Li Yang, inviting him to Berlin again.
Lin Nan happily accepted this time. The travel expenses were sponsored by his father and the neighbors knew about it.
Only then did Lin Nan realize that his mobile phone was enough for a round trip to Berlin.
At the end of January, Lin Nan boarded a plane from the capital to Berlin.
On February 1, Lin Nan arrived in Berlin, and Li Yang personally picked him up.
"Director, why are you here in person?"
Lin Nan was very moved, but Li Yang said, "It will cost money to hire someone to pick you up at the airport."
Lin Nan was speechless for a moment.
"You're kidding. Let's go and try the sausages here. I used to work in Germany and I'm very familiar with this place." Then he took Lin Nan into a Mercedes-Benz.
The driver was a Chinese man, with Li Yang and Lin Nan sitting in the back.
"I have some familiar people here who told me that the probability of winning a prize is not small, but we still keep a calm mind. The main thing is to sell, and it is best to win a prize." Li Yang said nonchalantly.
But Lin Nan could tell that he was still very concerned.
"You are also an investor and a student at the film school. It's definitely not a bad idea to come here and see the world. The crew of "Hero" has also arrived. They are much more impressive than our grass-stage crew. They came on a chartered plane." At this point, Li Yang felt a little sour. .
"But judging from the Berlin Film Festival's historical preferences, Director Zhang's "Hero" may not necessarily be more favored than your "The Blind Shaft", what do you think?" Lin Nan smiled.
Li Yang then looked at Lin Nan and said, "I didn't expect you to see so far. Those students in the school may not be as knowledgeable as you."
Once upon a time, there was a choice between domestic films, learning from Hollywood, or approaching Europe.
Finally chose the latter. As the three major film festivals in Europe, they each have their own preferences: literature, business, and complex realistic themes.
Back at the hotel, Lin Nan, Li Yang and a few others had a meal.
There are more than 1,500 types of sausages in Germany. You can eat three of them a day without repeating them for nearly two years. Lin Nan enjoyed a feast of sausages.
On February 6, the film festival officially started.
Films from all over the world gather here, and apart from a few that compete for awards, most of the participating films are for sale.
Buyers and sellers are looking for each other.
Li Yang told Lin Nan that he had found several interested buyers and the price was still being negotiated.
"Try to hang on until the awards are over." This was Lin Nan's advice to Li Yang.
The latter understands that this is the way to maximize profits once they win the prize.
As time passed, the participating films were categorized and rated for viewing until the very last moment.
This day is highly anticipated.
Zhang Guoshi's "Hero" won the Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award, which was far from expectations. This is only an award established to commend the courage to create a new vision in film art.
Li Yang, in his dual capacity as director and screenwriter, won the Silver Bear Award for Outstanding Artistic Contribution. This is a ranking award, not a consolation prize.
Lin Nan didn't care about the most important golden bear, the silver bear for the jury award and the silver bear for best director.
He only remembered that the excited Li Yang hugged him and went up to receive the award. He couldn't tell whether he was speaking in German or English, but he heard him call Lin Nan in Chinese, and he miraculously agreed.
Everyone around looked at him, and Li Yang raised the trophy to Lin Nan from above.
For the first time, so many unknown people looked at him, smiled and clapped. Lin Nan also subconsciously cheered, and the atmosphere at the scene became more intense.
When we returned to the hotel, everyone was happy, "I believe that tomorrow, domestic newspapers and media will report on this film festival. Director Li, you have beaten Director Zhang."
Lin Nan congratulated Li Yang. He is preparing to return to China. The fifteenth day of the first lunar month has passed and school is about to start.
"I will stay for a few more days to try to sell it at a good price. Previously, I had to accept overseas investment, but it was your 100,000 that made me make up my mind to sell the house and raise some of it. This time I won the prize, so we have to give it to both of us. Earn whatever you deserve."
Li Yang was in a good mood. Winning the award meant he had made money, and he definitely made a lot of money.
"I'm waiting for your good news at school."
"Just wait, haha."
The plane landed in the capital, and Lin Nan came out alone carrying a suitcase.
"Master, film school." He found a taxi and went straight to the school.
I turned on my cell phone, and sure enough, there were several missed calls, including Zhu Yawen's, Zhou Yang's, and my father's. There were actually several unfamiliar numbers.
When we arrived at the school, the atmosphere suddenly became much better. They were all young people.
It was two days since school started. Fortunately, Lin Nan called back in advance to ask for leave.
When I returned to the dormitory, I met Zhu Yawen before entering the door.
"Linzi, you bitch really got away."
Zhu Yawen punched her fist and said, "You are now famous."
"What's wrong"?
Lin Nan asked knowingly.
"The Xinhua News Agency has already reported that your film "The Blind Shaft" won the Silver Bear Award. The director even thanked you in it, as well as your silly photo."
Lin Nan was speechless. It was just that the scene was too big and his mind was a little confused, so he was captured?
After taking the newspaper thrown by Zhu Yawen, Lin Nan felt relieved. He was not dumbfounded, just expressionless.
Signed the contract yesterday afternoon.
Thanks to the first person who tipped this book, not including the thirty-year-old.
If there are any typos, please tell me and I will correct them as soon as possible. Thank you.
