Chapter 460: The Peculiar Standard of the International Film Festival
Berlin is a city of calm and shocking, as if the Germans are characterized by their calm, tenacious and meticulous character, which is fully reflected in the city.
For example, if a bus is scheduled to arrive at the platform at half past eight, at this time, at eight twenty-seven, even if the driver takes a slow cigarette and takes a nap, he will not finish the remaining 100 meters until half past eight and arrive at the bus stop on time.
Although this is a joke, no matter how it is, it fully shows that the Germans are meticulous and strictly follow the rules and regulations.
It's like Ye Ming is riding the Fa Maybach provided by the organizing committee. The next day is about to be the time for the awards ceremony, that night, Ye Ming followed Zhang Yimou to participate in several press conferences, and Zhang Yimou's calm appearance is as stable as Mount Tai, whether it is the Asahi Shimbun, the New York Times, or the Times, or even international media such as the BBC, Zhang Yimou can face it calmly, Ye Ming stands by Zhang Yimou's side, and he experiences Zhang Yimou's calm artistic conception all the time. The host comprehends the preliminary system of the Emperor's superstar and walks leisurely. γ
At this time, Ye Ming was a little surprised [What kind of performance is it for leisurely walking, how can I not know that there is such a function. γ
The system prompts that [leisurely walking is an auxiliary function of the emperor superstar, and the function is to make the host not stage frightened, no matter what the occasion is to be able to have a leisurely stroll. The host and Zhang Ziyi both have stage fright in these press conferences, but it means that you are all behind Zhang Yimou, even if you have stage fright, it will not attract the attention of reporters. γ
Ye Ming pondered for a moment, this is indeed the case, in such a situation. When I faced the international media, I did have a kind of stage fright in my heart, but fortunately, I always covered it up with that professional smile. No matter what, the reporter didn't find out, but Zhang Ziyi's expression was more obvious. One hand always grabbed Zhang Yimou's wrist tightly. At this time, Ye Ming understood that when facing the media, it is indeed necessary to have a calm mentality.
After having the mentality of [Leisurely Walking], Ye Ming felt very relaxed, as if at the scene of this press conference, there was no invisible pressure on himself from reporters.
When Ye Ming went to the bathroom, he saw Zhang Yimou treating the wound on his wrist in the bathroom, and he didn't hide Ye Ming's meaning at all, and said with a smile: "Xiaozhang still lacks international experience." I've never seen a big scene, so at this time, my wrist was bleeding. β
This point also fully proves how nervous Zhang Ziyi is in her heart. Zhang Yimou dealt with it and covered it with a shirt, and there was no trace on the outside at all.
At this time, he came out with Ye Ming with a smile, and said while walking Zhang Yimou: "I really can't see it, Ye Ming, it is the first time for you to come to such an international film festival. I didn't expect you to be so calm, and Xiao Zhang should really learn from you about this. She still lacks experience in this area. β
This is the case. Ye Ming is not easy to say, anyone can see that Zhang Ziyi is Zhang Yimou's Mou girl, although Zhang Yimou has repeatedly said that Zhang Ziyi is not good, but that is also his own hatred of iron and steel, if others really dare to say that Zhang Ziyi is not good, then Zhang Yimou will definitely be anxious.
This kind of eyesight, Ye Ming, who is a man in two lives, still has it. Ye Ming said with a smile: "Director Zhang said that he laughed, in fact, I was also nervous, and my shirt was soaked. It's just that I debuted a little early, so I endured and persevered. To be honest, I've been from noon until now. I didn't even dare to drink my saliva, I was afraid that I would be nervous and want to go to the toilet, and if I always went to the toilet in front of so many reporters at the press conference, wouldn't it become an international joke?"
Sure enough, hearing Ye Ming being so modest, at this time, Zhang Yimou showed a rare smile on his face and said: "You are too modest, if Xiao Zhang has half of your modesty, then her film and television career will be very advantageous, but unfortunately, this needs to be done step by step." β
At this time, Zhang Ziyi was waiting on the other side of the corridor, and when she saw Zhang Yimou walking out, Zhang Ziyi immediately greeted her, holding Zhang Yimou's arm very enthusiastically.
At this time, Zhang Yimou didn't seem to have the intention of stopping, his interest was very high, and he gushed endlessly: " Ye Ming, Xiao Zhang, you remember, at the international film festival, only if you are arrogant enough, then you can attract everyone's attention and attention, of course, this kind of arrogance is not a big name, even if Schwarzenegger and Stallone dare to break the rules, they will be blacklisted, as long as you are within the scope of the rules, and the table is high enough, this is what no one can do to you. For example, if a reporter asks you a question, if it is difficult for you to answer, you can infer that this question is a bit of an infringement of some people's privacy, and I don't think you should discuss it casually in public. β
At this time, Ye Ming counted down and said that he understood the meaning of this matter very well, but Zhang Ziyi was not very familiar with this matter at that time, and immediately said: "Reporters are very difficult to deal with, what if I answer like this, and the reporter is not satisfied." In China, reporters naturally say that it is very difficult to deal with, what kind of tricky and weird questions can be asked, Zhang Ziyi has only debuted for more than a year, but she has also experienced the difficulty of reporters. Zhang Yimou said very affirmatively: "You can rest assured at this point, maybe the thing you said may happen in China, but such a thing will not happen abroad at all." In China, celebrities as public figures basically have no privacy. β
Speaking of which, Zhang Yimou has a deep understanding, thinking that after the matter between him and Gong Li came out, in order to avoid the media, he even said that he and Gong Li filmed a movie like the ancient and modern wars of the Qin Warriors, which was actually just to avoid media reporters. The funny thing is that even if it is this, Zhang Yimou also won the best actor at the Tokyo International Film Festival, which may be the loss of the east corner and the harvest of Sangyu.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yimou's mood was a little heavy, but he thought that he should have a good mood when he came to Berlin this time, and he was able to be greeted by Maybach, which shows that his film has entered the semi-finals in the main competition unit, otherwise it is impossible to get this treatment.
Therefore, thinking of this, Zhang Yimou's mood immediately improved, and he said with a smile: "In fact, in foreign countries, personal privacy is very protected, even if it is a celebrity, it also has its own privacy, once a reporter dares to infringe on this privacy, just wait to be sued by a lawyer to go to court." Those lawyers abroad are not fuel-efficient lamps. β
This is also Zhang Yimou's experience, it is impossible for ordinary stars to know about these, because it is impossible for ordinary stars to go to the Berlin International Film Festival. And at this time, Zhang Yimou will not point out others casually. Zhang Ziyi thought for a while and said: "If it is said that the table is too arrogant, will it be written by others as playing a big name, if it is said by a reporter that it is a big name at the Berlin International Film Festival, it is not good." β
Zhang Yimou was very sure and said resolutely: " This is simply impossible, as long as you receive an invitation to participate in the Berlin International Film Festival, it is an elite film from all over the world, it can be said that there is merit If you dare to appear high and have no ability, there is an arrogant and natural expression, that is if you play a big name, but if you have the ability, even if you are a little arrogant, as long as it is within the rules, that is, you are born cold and arrogant, and your personality is like this, and the reporter will not say anything, think about it, Schwarzenegger's big pie face, a look of no one to enter, who dares to say that he plays a big nameοΌ
Also, Stallone, Shang Winton, Tom Cruise, Lucas, etc., even if they have a cold face, reporters just guess why they are in a bad mood today, and they will not say that they are big names. Because they don't need to play big names at all, they are big names, this is the rule of international film festivals, if you show humility and grovel, then at such a time, you will be suspected of not having the ability, because in the eyes of those reporters, only the people who are capable will appear unconfident. And we Chinese people have always been modest expression, which makes us suffer very much, it is very helpless, Westerners know too little about us East, can only use this lame way to treat us. I have also come to understand this after some twists and turns, and I hope that these experiences will be useful to you. β
These experiences are naturally very useful, although Ye Ming is a human being in two lives, but in his previous life, he did not come to such a point as an international film festival, and some such experiences are very important to him.
Therefore, Ye Ming said very politely: "These experiences are very valuable, thanks to Director Zhang's guidance, I will definitely remember it." "Without the guidance of his predecessors, if Ye Ming wants to know these experiences, it may take two or even three international film festivals on the red carpet to understand this.
Therefore, Ye Ming is sincerely grateful to Zhang Yimou for selflessly imparting these experiences.
And at this good time, in a manor, a guy named Moritz picked up a blue and white porcelain vase from Jingdezhen and threw it on the ground, and said angrily: "Bastard, I'm really angry, is this playing with me? Public toilets?"
With a breath of anger in his heart, Moritz stretched out his foot and kicked the broken blue and white porcelain vase to the side. (To be continued)
