On December 30, the 55th Berlin Film Festival announced the list of nominees, and a total of 22 films were shortlisted for the main competition unit, including Gu Changwei's "Peacock" and "A Cloud on the Edge of the Sky", a frequent guest of the three major European festivals.

It is gratifying that Ning Hao's "Green Meadow" has become the only Chinese-language film among the 35 works shortlisted for the forum unit.

Compared with Ning Hao's excitement on the phone, He Xin was a little regretful, why was he not shortlisted for the main competition unit? However, compared with Gu Changwei's "Peacock", he also had to admit that there was still a big gap in terms of the content and quality of the film.

In the past two years, especially with the lifting of the ban on the so-called sixth generation of directors, the mainland film environment has improved a lot. And because mainland films are absent from the three major European festivals at the same time this year, the appearance of two mainland films in the shortlist of the 55th Berlin Film Festival, which will open on February 10 next year, has attracted special attention.

What's more, unlike the "underground films" that often embarrassed the officials in the past, these two works have been seriously reviewed by the Film Bureau, which is quite arrogant, so even the official media spared no effort to report it.

Unlike the debut film "Peacock" directed by the famous photographer Gu Changwei, who invested tens of millions of yuan and lasted nearly two years, and attracted wide media attention as soon as it was launched, the small-scale film "Green Meadow" directed by Ning Hao entered the media's field of vision for the first time.

This is the second time that Ning Hao, a young director in his twenties, has been shortlisted for the European Third Festival since "Incense" won the Special Attention Award and the Best Actor Award in the Venice Film Festival last year. Although it is not a single unit of the main competition, the forum unit is also a competition unit, and according to the ranking, it is second only to the main competition unit.

As a result, it has attracted even more media attention.

But at the same time, careful media suddenly discovered that although the two shortlisted films were used by both rookie actors and non-professional actors, there were personal names appearing in both works.

On the latest movie poster of "Peacock", after the main actors, the name He Xin can also be found in the producer column.

"Yes, because it was very pleasant to work with director Ning Hao for the first time, and everyone's understanding and pursuit of the film are the same, so this time we collaborated together on this "Green Meadow" again......

"Yes, we are grateful to Boehner, without their investment, this work would not have been able to come out so early......"

"Yes, the script was created a few years ago, but the conditions have not been mature......"

"Why do you invest? I just said that I have the same film understanding as director Ning Hao, and of course such a good script must be made......

"Hehe, I said a long time ago, I was the director of Xiaoshuai to make my debut, as long as Xiaoshuai said it, even if it was a trick, I would be willing to ...... It's not a cameo, to be precise, it's the male number three, I play a young worker who led a new trend in the early 80s, and I've never tried this kind of role before...... Yes, I love the character...... I'm sorry, that's all I can say, or it's a spoiler, but I can guarantee it's a pretty good story......"

"Okay, okay, we're still filming here, please don't disturb the crew's normal work!"

After answering the reporter's questions and handing over the chaotic scene to Li Huatong, the production director who was still wearing a plaster cast and hanging his arms, He Xin wiped the sweat from his head and hurriedly slipped back upstairs.

Originally, the filming of the crew was confidential, because of the topic caused by the nomination of the Berlin Film Festival, many media reporters were recruited to the crew, and the filming was delayed for half a day.

"Director, I'm sorry!"

"It's okay, I'm hoping you can help with the propaganda now, and I can borrow some money. Wang Xiaoshuai shook his head with a wry smile.

He Xin's hundreds of thousands of yuan can only solve a temporary urgent need, the current hole of the crew is still big, and now the news of the lack of money has spread in the group, which makes people panic.

However, the only good news at present is that through Wang Xiaoshuai's personal mediation with the investor, Xingmei Qin finally sold Lao Wang a face, and increased the quota by 500,000. If everything goes well, it will be able to hold on until the end, but the money for post-production is still not settled.

......

Pinggu, Feilong Valley.

"Be careful on the road!"

At the door of Tongfu Inn, Cheng Hao spoke a very joyful Qingdao Mandarin and waved goodbye to Zhang Xinyi, who played a guest role as his maid.

Xiao Zhang, dressed in a black night suit, carrying a package on his back, carrying a sword in his hand, hugged her with a fist neatly, without half a word of nonsense, turned around and walked out of the painting.

Cheng Hao leaned against the door, reluctantly looking at her disappearing back, and only turned around after a while, and said to Yan Nick, who was lying on the counter, drooping two instant noodles and lazily flipping through the account book, and said: "If you have any dirty work or tiring work, just say hello!"

Yan Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said continuously: "Don't worry!

Having said that, he walked out of the counter with a ledger in one hand and an abacus in the other, and Li Dazui, Bai Zhantang, Lu Xiucai and others next to him swarmed around.

"Before I start, I want to settle the account with you first. Yan Nick smiled charmingly.

"Is this necessary?" Cheng Hao looked confused.

"Of course there is!"

Yan Nick sat down next to the old elm table with the highest frequency of appearances, facing the main seat at the door, and Xiucai next to him flipped the account book to the page to be settled, and placed it in front of the shopkeeper.

Yan Nick was pulling the abacus beads, and at the same time chattering in his mouth: "Look, smashed furniture, broken stairs, and pots and pans and wine jars, plus ......"

"Alright! Alright!"

Cheng Hao said impatiently, "You said that the total number is good." ”

"It's forty-eight taels and seven dollars. ”

Cheng Hao was stunned, raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Zhantang, Li Dazui and others who were waiting to prevent him from escaping, showing an arrogant smile.

"Hey, I thought it was a lot?

Yan Nick smiled charmingly, pulled another abacus bead, and said, "I'll remove the odds again, and count you forty-eight taels!"

Cheng Hao immediately slapped the table and said domineeringly: "No problem!"

After a slight pause, he asked, "And how much do I get paid each month?"

Yan Yan smiled and put up two fingers, "Two coins of silver!"

Cheng Hao nodded when he heard this, and then fell into a lost thought, muttering in his mouth: "That means, I want to ......"

Before she could finish the calculation, she saw Yan Yan smile in a charming manner: "Don't count, you still have to work for twenty years!"

Cheng Hao came to his senses in an instant, the camera was pushed closer, and two big close-ups.

I saw that the expression on her face was first incredulous, and then her eyes were full of horror as she opened wider and wider......

"Card!"

Shang Jing shouted, and specially praised Cheng Hao: "Xiao Cheng, you acted well!"

"Thank you, director!" Cheng Haole said with a smile.

After a few days of running-in, she finally adapted to the atmosphere of this play, just one word "wave", when filming, you must not be restrained and shy, how to wave and how to come, the effect is the best.

Compared with several other Shang Jing's old team, they are all used to the director's style, Cheng Hao is relatively slow to enter the state, but her progress is very fast, and she has adapted to this comedic and exaggerated performance style in a few days, which makes Shang Jing, who originally had doubts about her, very satisfied.

Today's filming is going very smoothly, and there are still people outside to visit the class. Shang Jing then waved his hand very knowingly and said, "Rest for half an hour." ”

"Great!"

Everyone answered, and each went to find a place to have fun.

Cheng Hao also hurriedly ran to the outside of the inn.

Don't look at Cheng Haohao, it seems that he has high emotional intelligence, but he really doesn't have many friends. And she has been quite depressed in the crew these days, the reason is that among the people in "Wulin Gaiden", she is the youngest and the most famous, and she has just won the Golden Eagle Award.

What's more, the others are either from the same unit or have worked together before, so it seems that she is a little out of place.

In fact, it's no wonder that compared with the salary, her salary is 50,000 yuan per episode, while Yan Nick is the highest among the others, only 5,000 episodes, a difference of ten times. In this way, we have to make everyone feel that she is looking up to the mountains and staying away.

As an aside, Yao Dazui's salary in the original time and space was only 2,000 yuan per episode.

Outside, three tall girls were gathering together and chattering very lively.

Zhang Xinyi, who made a cameo appearance, didn't bother to change her clothes at this time, and she was still wearing the black night coat, but she was wrapped in a down jacket outside.

Cheng Hao was also wearing a long black down coat at this time, no way, the temperature in this mountain is much lower than that in the city, and when filming the night scene last night, the temperature dropped to almost minus ten degrees, which made Yan Ni, who was sitting on the roof and chatting with her, choked enough.
