Chapter 551: Aunt Chen?
Chen Chong can be called a legend in the entertainment industry.
As early as 80 years, she won the Best Actress of the Hundred Flowers Award for Popular Films with a "Little Flower".
"The Last Emperor", starring in 88, won 9 Oscars that year, including Best Film.
In 97, as a director, she was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Berlin Film Festival with a "Heavenly Bath".
In addition, she has won countless other awards large and small, and in the case of the Golden Horse Awards, she has won almost all the highest awards that a woman can get, including Best Female Intuition, Best Director, Best Picture, etc.
Well, there is a lack of a Best Supporting Actress, because she hasn't played a supporting actress much......
By the way, I would like to add that she will not only serve as a judge at the Venice Film Festival this year, but also serve as a judge at the 51st Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards in November.
Chen Chong is a Chinese of rice origin, although a large part of his career is in China, but he still spends a lot of time at home in the country every year.
Just like this time, she is returning from the United States.
It was originally scheduled that she would return to China today, and after settling down, she would deal with the affairs at hand first, and then meet with Zhang Bufan two days later, but I don't know why she suddenly changed her mind and decided to meet today.
So there was a scene where Tian Xiangxiang suddenly took Zhang Bufan to meet people.
The meeting was arranged in the hotel where Chen Chong lived, a luxurious large suite, and Zhang Bufan was quite blushing when he saw it - this product is also considered a rich man who is famous, but he really has never had this kind of luxury treatment when he runs around with the crew.
As soon as they met, Chen Chong first gave Tian Xiangxiang a warm hug, and Zhang Bufan on the side frowned secretly.
Didn't the old man say that he was not familiar with Chen Chong? This meeting was a big hug, you tell me that this is called unfamiliarity? Don't fool me with this is the etiquette of the Chinese people, as if you have never seen the world.
Over there, the two exchanged a few simple greetings, and then Tian Xiangxiang began to introduce Zhang Bufan, "This is the young man I told you, Zhang Bufan, the movie I made this time was tossed by him." ”
"Hello senior, I'm Zhang Bufan, you can call me Bufan, or Zhang Er. Zhang Bufan hurriedly went over and bowed and said hello, this person is nearly 20 years older than him, and he is a senior, so he deserves this ceremony.
"What is the name of the senior, it seems to be raw. Chen Chong was very easy-going, pointed to the field, and asked with a smile: "What do you usually call him?"
"Uncle Tian. Zhang Bufan replied honestly.
"Then you can call me Aunt Chen. Chen Chong said with a smile.
"That's calling you old, to be honest, let's stand together, everyone looks like a brother and sister, or I'll call you Sister Chen." Zhang Bufan hit the snake with the stick.
No woman would mind if someone said she was younger, and if she did, she was either not a woman or a woman with a not quite normal mind.
Obviously, Chen Chong didn't belong to these two, and when he heard this, he immediately laughed even happier, "Bufan, you are worthy of being a screenwriter, you can speak, Brother Tian, let's talk about it." ”
"Stinky boy, you're getting smarter. Tian Xiangxiang glared at Zhang Bufan, and then complained to Chen Chong: "Don't you know, the first time I went to his small restaurant, this kid asked me as soon as he opened his mouth, 'What do you want to eat, uncle', I was angry, and my heart said that I am so old?"
Chen Chong was amused and laughed so much that he said to Zhang Bufan: "Brother Tian told me about you before, and I also went to check your information, many people said that you are the best at cooking in the entertainment industry, I didn't believe it at first, but now I am more curious, and I don't know if I have the opportunity to taste your skills." ”
"I'll tell you the truth, cooking is my family's ancestor, and it's also my hobby, I used to open a small restaurant when I entered this circle, and now I always like to cook a few dishes when I have nothing to do, Sister Chen, if you want to eat, I can cook it for you at any time." Zhang Bufan said with a smile: "Even when you arrive in Venice, I will be a full-time chef for you." ”
"Speaking of which, I'm going to talk about the ugly things first. Hearing Zhang Bufan mention Venice, Chen Chong smiled slightly and said: "In the matter of movies, I can't tolerate a little sand in my eyes, good is good, bad is bad, although I do have the qualifications to recommend films as a judge of the Venice Film Festival, but if the quality of your film is not up to par, even if it is Brother Arita's face, I will never recommend it." ”
"Of course, if the quality of this movie is not up to par, it will not be made, because our director Tian Da, like Sister Chen, is a person who can't put sand in his eyes. Zhang Bufan said with a smile: "But it doesn't make much sense for me to say this, Sister Chen, you should judge it after you read it yourself." ”
In fact, in this circle, no one can really "ignore human feelings", but there has to be a degree, some things have obviously passed, there is no room for turnaround, ask for your head and you will respond, not only can not turn things in a good direction, on the contrary, you may also put yourself in.
For a specific case, refer to the heroine of "Sky Bath" and a certain rapper in the incident of a certain actress surnamed Ma who stood up to speak for her "best friend", because of that incident, she was not as simple as being scolded, but her career was almost stagnant!
Chen Chong's current situation is the same, as a judge of the film festival, he undoubtedly holds great power, but if the movie you recommend is a bad movie, it is not as simple as slapping yourself in the face.
Once this matter spreads, it is guaranteed that her name will no longer appear at any film festival in the future, and this is just a foundation, and by extension, it will have a lot of bad effects on her other careers, such as actors and directors.
Of course Zhang Bufan understands this kind of thing, and before coming here, Tian Xiangxiang gave him an in-depth analysis, after all, Jiang is old and spicy, and Tian Xiangxiang is far more profound and real than he wants to know about this kind of thing.
When I contacted Brother Tian a few days ago, he told me that he was doing post-production. Chen Chong asked curiously.
"It's just a rough cut, and there are some dubbing issues to deal with. Tian Xiangxiang took out the USB flash drive as he spoke, "It's a bit long, nearly two and a half hours, it's a little late today, Xiao Chen, you've been on the plane for so long, let's take a good rest first, and I'll watch it when I'm free." ”
"Don't, don't. Chen Chong took the USB flash drive and called the assistant to prepare for playback, and said: "I have no resistance to good movies, the more confident you are in this movie, the more I want to see it as soon as possible, if Brother Tian or Bufan don't mind, how about we watch it again together?"
What else can I do, I can only agree.
Zhang Bufan looked at Chen Chong, who was waiting for the assistant to play the movie, and felt quite emotional.
This is the real filmmaker, no matter what age, no matter the time and place, as long as there is something good about the film in front of them, they are difficult to refuse.
It's hard to refuse the never-extinguishing heat in my heart for movies.
