Chapter 348: Asian Film Festival

"Good luck and good luck!"

"A box office hit!"

"Come on, create new achievements!"

......

Since coming off the stage, Li Zi'an has been lingering in the front row of the auditorium with a red wine glass.

The people who can sit in the front row of the auditorium are all invited guests.

Among them are the vice president of the Bollywood Film Academy, the director of the Bollywood Film Studio, and a lot of people from the Mumbai film industry, in addition, there are also some local dignitaries from Mumbai.

Some of these people are coming for Li Zi'an, some are coming for Harry Tivedi, anyway, it doesn't matter who they are coming to, the so-called visitors are guests, and Li Zi'an is enthusiastic enough for everyone.

After all, in the next few months, maybe these people will be able to use it.

After turning around with a red wine glass for most of the circle, Li Zi'an came to the last table that needed to be toasted.

"Mr. Li, I wish you a good start. ”

When Li Zi'an walked towards them, Raj Sharma and the others had already stood up from their chairs.

The last table is Raj Sharma and others.

On the first day that Li Zi'an and others arrived in India, these people accompanied them to play around Mumbai, and Li Zi'an naturally would not forget this favor, so at today's start-up banquet, Li Zi'an invited them over to express some gratitude.

"Raj, thank you!"

Li Zi'an smiled and touched Raj Sharma's glass, and then he gestured slightly to the classmates behind Raj Sharma.

is still the same sentence, the so-called generals to generals, soldiers to soldiers.

Li Zi'an and Raj Sharma are considered to be people at the same level, in the face of this table, Li Zi'an only needs to deal with Raj Sharma, as for the others, naturally there are He Yilun and others behind Li Zi'an to deal with.

After the two clinked glasses, they each took a sip of wine.

Putting down the wine glass, Raj Sharma looked at Li Zi'an with a somewhat complicated look.

"You are very courageous and courageous, I am not as good as you. ”

Raj Sharma said with a soft sigh.

When Li Zi'an heard this, he chuckled: "The restrictions on identity make you have scruples about many things, and I am different, I am a passerby after all for this land and this country, if I am in your position, I will not be so aggressive, this matter varies from person to person, there is no need to compare, and there is no need to compare." ”

"You don't have to be modest, even if I were in your position, I don't think I would have the courage to go directly to Mr. Harry Tivedi and ask him to cooperate. Raj Sharma argued earnestly.

Li Zi'an shrugged his shoulders in the face of Raj Sharma's serious expression: "Okay, since you have to praise me so seriously, then I can only be disrespectful." ”

After saying that, Li Zi'an and Raj Sharma looked at each other and couldn't help laughing at the same time.

"By the way, what have you been busy with lately?" Li Zi'an took a sip of wine and teased with a smile: "You won't be scared by my big battle, right?"

Hearing this, Raj Sharma smiled, and gently shook the red wine in the goblet with his right hand: "I'm busy preparing for the project, it is estimated that in half a month, my movie will almost be able to start, maybe our movie may be released at the same time, and then compare with each other?"

The two tested each other, and there was a little-for-tat between the words, but the smell of gunpowder was very faint, or even almost none, as if it was a conversation between two good friends.

If you want to compare the box office, I think you should forget it, there is a great possibility that my film will be introduced into China, if it is compared to the box office, it is really bullying you. Li Zi'an replied with a smile.

Although Li Zi'an said that it was very probable, in fact, the probability of this high probability was nearly 100%.

With Huaxia University of the Arts to take the blame, and Zhou Guochuan to the platform, Li Zian wants to introduce movies into China, who dares to stop him?

Whoever stops is unlucky!

"Of course I won't compete with you at the box office, your movie, the investment alone is more than 100 crore, and with Mr. Harry Tivedi joining, I am not as entrenched as you, nor as big a battle as you. Raj Sharma smiled calmly.

"And what do you want to compare?"

Li Zi'an looked at him a little curiously and asked.

"In June next year, when the Asian Film Festival opens, let's compare and see whose film can get more nominations on it, and who will win more awards?"

As for the content of the competition, Raj Sharma seems to have thought about it a long time ago.

When Li Zi'an heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly: "Asian film festivals usually don't take us Chinese people to play, can I also run?"

The Asian Film Festival, as the name suggests, is a grand event in the Asian film industry, representing the highest film award in the Asian film industry.

But what is more interesting is that because Huaxia is also entrenched in Asia, and Huaxia's film output capacity has been unprecedentedly strong in recent years, this leads to the fact that if the Asian Film Festival includes Huaxia, then this Asian Film Festival will almost not be held, and all the awards are estimated to be almost won by Chinese filmmakers.

Therefore, since ten years ago, Asian film festivals have gradually stopped playing with Chinese filmmakers, and Chinese filmmakers are not very willing to make do with Asian film festivals.

After all, every time I go, I win an award, but I don't get a reputation, but I am scolded by filmmakers from neighboring countries, and anyone will be unhappy.

In the end, it evolved into today's model, the Asian Film Festival is held every two years, which is a relatively grand film event for filmmakers from all Asian countries except for China, and if anyone can win the award on it, it will be regarded as a great reputation.

The Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Award at the domestic film festival is held once a year, and the gold content of this award is only high compared with the Asian Film Festival.

Externally, it is the Dragon Bottle Film Festival, a biennial film festival for global film festivals, which is currently the largest event for filmmakers around the world.

This is the current situation of the world film competition, and after Li Zi'an learned about it, he felt that it was very novel and interesting.

"Although you are Chinese, your "Wrestling, Dad" was produced in our India, the actors and production team are all Indian, the story content is all local Indian materials, and the relevant procedures are also done in India, you take this work to participate in the Asian Film Festival, who can find fault with it?"

Raj Sharma asked with a smile.

Li Zi'an nodded when he heard this: "That's okay, then do as you say." ”

Hearing Raj Sharma mention of competing at the Asian Film Festival, Li Zi'an was also a little interested.

Domestic film awards are relatively high-end, every time they are opened, they are really a fight between gods, and with Li Zi'an's current achievements, he can't even bubble up.

His current fame, the points touted by the media, are basically all about his age.

Age + grades well beyond age = gimmick

However, in fact, Li Zi'an's achievements, if you put aside the aura of his age, are actually far worse than those directors who really stand at the top of the domestic food chain.

However, there is no PK in China, but abroad, as far as this movie is concerned, Li Zian has a little confidence and feels that he can fight for it.

After all, as far as this movie is concerned, whether it is the cast or the script, it can be called the top level, and there is no reason to coax it.

After Li Zi made up his mind to go to the Asian Film Festival to meet the world, he casually asked Raj Sharma, "What kind of movie are you planning to make this time?" ”

"I plan to make a film with a theme that reflects the current inaction of guanyuan in China. ”

For his own subject, Raj Sharma said it very generously, without any cover-up.

Li Zi'an heard this, and bowed slightly.

Raj Sharma has taken a big step to target this social issue, which is somewhat sensitive.

Thinking of this, Li Zi'an suddenly envied Raj Sharma a little, he could have so much material to shoot.

Unlike my country, there were no problems, it was just perfect.

What the?

You call me a lie?

Come on, bring me my little whip of socialism and harmony, and see that I don't smoke to death!

Don't ask, ask is no!

Li Zi'an chatted with Raj Sharma for a while, and finally toasted again, and then proposed to leave, after all, there were so many people at the scene, Li Zi'an still needed to go to the rest of the tables to take a look.

And just when Li Zi'an's noodles were full of wine, the Huaxia Internet, which was already approaching the middle of the night, was suddenly boiled by the news that had just come from India......
