Chapter 459: If you are not convinced, will you be okay?

Although it is very unhappy that the Japanese will not admit the problem of World War II, Zhang Yimou also knows that Ichikawa Kun is a very good director, and his experience as a director of literary films is unique in Japan and he is a rare opponent. *Apex* Dot* Novel 23wx

This time, Ichikawa-kun's score [Dorway Heita] was also shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Berlin Film Festival, and Zhang Yimou didn't feel strange at all when he met Ichikawa-kun at the airport.

At that moment, Zhang Yimou said very politely: "It turned out to be Mr. Ichikawa, and I am also very happy that I can meet Mr. Ichikawa here, you invite first." ”

This is actually a kind of respect for Ichikawa Kun's decades of film experience, after all, Ichikawa Kun is now in his seventies, and he is considered an old-timer of the film festival, which is Zhang Yimou's respect for the film itself. And at this time, Ichikawa Kun was also very polite, he knew that he had made movies for a few more years, and he was Zhang Yimou's predecessor, if it was said that he walked in front according to the rules in the circle, it was nothing.

But Zhang Yimou, that is a Chinese national teacher-level director, the award can be counted in the Asia-Pacific region, even Kurosawa Akira dare not say that he can suppress Zhang Yimou, therefore, Mr. Ichikawa Kun is very polite to pull Zhang Yimou with him, because Zhang Yimou has the qualifications to go with him.

As for Zhang Ziyi and Ye Ming, Ichikawa Kun didn't ask what it was like at all. Because these two little actors are not qualified to ask Ichikawa Kun at all, this is also the rule of the entertainment industry, just like Zhang Yimou would not ask lightly who the actors who came with Ichikawa Kun were. If it was Gong Li who followed Zhang Yimou, then Ichikawa Kun would naturally be polite. And Gong Li is also the chairman of the jury of this year's glass film festival.

I don't know if this is a coincidence or an intentional arrangement of the festival. Anyway, if Ye Ming and Zhang Ziyi compare their identities and status with Gong Li, they don't seem to be comparable in the eyes of international directors.

Gong Li is the goddess-level existence of the East in the eyes of Western audiences.

Even if Zhang Yimou and Ichikawa Kun didn't deliberately let go of their powerful aura at all, but. Ye Ming can still feel the strong pressure from the two international directors. None of the directors who can stand on the land of the Berlinale are fuel-efficient lamps.

Therefore, at this time, Ye Ming also came over with a learning attitude, but Zhang Ziyi was a little unhappy at this time, she was Zhang Yimou's person. Where have you followed Zhang Yimou in the past year, haven't you been entertained by the stars.

But how can you endure Ichikawa Kun's indifferent eyes, and even in Ichikawa Kun's eyes, he has never stayed on Zhang Ziyi's body at all, as if Zhang Ziyi is like transparent air.

Therefore, at this time, Zhang Ziyi walked a few times quickly, walking behind Zhang Yimou and Ichikawa Kun, close to the two of them, at this time. Zhang Ziyi was a little unconvinced, and planned to have a chance to show her face in front of this great Japanese director.

However, at this time, who knew that Ichikawa Kun turned around and glanced at Zhang Ziyi, and then said to Zhang Yimou: "Zhang Sang, this actor of yours is a little unruly, you have to give good guidance, otherwise you may lose face at the film festival."

I'm afraid it won't be beautiful when the time comes. These are the heartfelt words of Ichikawa-kun. didn't give Zhang Ziyi face at all. The so-called uncomfortable rules are actually just a rule in the entertainment industry. This rule is a matter of the order of walking, Ichikawa Kun is qualified to walk in front of everyone's sins, of course, Zhang Yimou has strong achievements as a background and is qualified to walk with Ichikawa Kun, even if it is to say what the reporter sees, then there is nothing to say at such a time.

But if it was Zhang Ziyi walking behind the two of them. In a case like this, it becomes a bit unruly. Behind the director are actors, and even if they are actors, there is a difference in status.

The real people who can walk behind Zhang Yimou and Ichikawa Kun are Ye Ming and Hiroshi Yasho. If it is said that it is an achievement, then Ye Ming is the Golden Horse actor, and Hiroshi Yasho is the actor in the Tokyo film industry in 97. Of course, when it comes to Hiroshi Yasho, Chinese audiences may not be familiar with it, but when it comes to a movie starring him, everyone should be very familiar with it.

That is Junichi Watanabe's [Paradise Lost].

But Ye Ming is still a singer who won the king in World War I, and his achievements in singers are not inferior to those in movies, and the most important thing is that Ye Ming is one of the five judges of [Harry Potter] casting, although it is said that Ye Ming himself understands what the inside story of this casting is like, but at such a time, others seem to be Ye Ming is still valued by Time Warner.

Therefore, in the entertainment industry where seniority is ranked, Ye Ming's influence among many actors is the greatest.

At this time, Ichikawa Kun glanced at Mr. Ye Ming and said, "Ye Sang, it's better for you to come over, otherwise, then everyone should not go out." ”

Although Hiroshi Yakusho himself is a little older, and he is also the actor of the Tokyo International Film Festival, Director Ichikawa has spoken, and at this time, Hiroshi Yakusho is also very polite to let way out.

Although Zhang Yimou didn't speak gloomily, he also said in a somewhat stiff tone: "Xiao Zhang should go behind Hiroshi in the service office." Obviously, Zhang Ziyi is not qualified to walk in the second place, the rules are the rules, therefore, Zhang Ziyi is only qualified to walk in the third position, behind the Hiroshi of the office. Under Zhang Ziyi's indignant prayer in her heart, Ye Ming unceremoniously walked in the second position, and the Hiroshi of the Servant Office walked behind Ye Ming very politely.

The rules are like this, in China, Zhang Yimou can promote Zhang Ziyi to go with him, but this is Germany, this is the Berlin International Film Festival, therefore, in such a situation, it should be such a rule, that is, what kind of rules should be followed.

Walking out of the door, at this time, a BMW greeted me, it was a special car for the Berlin Film Festival. The organizing committee will pick up and drop off all the directors and actors who come to Berlin for the competition unit.

Generally, directors and actors will call the organizing committee before boarding the plane in their own country, and it is easy to find out when the plane will arrive, so the pick-up is relatively timely. At this time, seeing that the car that picked up Zhang Yimou had not yet come, Director Ichikawa Kun said very politely: "Zhang Sang, why don't you and I go over first, and let them take a taxi together later." ”

At this time, it also showed that the status was different, and he was qualified to sit in a car by himself, and the coal-to-oil Zhang Yimou and Ye Ming and Zhang Ziyi were still almost qualified. Just when Zhang Yimou was about to refuse, a Maybach car drove over, and the same staff of the Berlin International Film Festival came to pick up the plane. At this time, Zhang Yimou smiled a little proudly and said: "We appreciate Mr. Ichikawa's kindness, and the advisory committee also sent a car to pick us up, see you later." ”

Although the BMW arrived first, because Ichikawa Kun didn't get on the car earlier, in such a situation, it was still said that Zhang Yimou took Ye Ming, Zhang Ziyi and two staff members to Maybach. At this time, Ichikawa-kun's face was a little unhappy.

Hiroshi Yakusho stood up behind him and said, "Director Ichikawa, what do you mean by being a person at the Berlin International Film Festival?" Our pick-up is a BMW, and Zhang Yimou is a Maybach?"

Ichikawa snorted and said, "What do you mean? This is the rule of the Berlin International Film Festival, how much is a BMW car, 70,000 or 80,000 US dollars a car, but the cheapest Maybach is more than 900,000 US dollars, which is ten times that of BMW."

It's a tradition, out of the more than 20 films that participated in the main competition, only the directors and actors of the five most promising films were eligible to be picked up by Maybach, and the rest of the less promising directors could only use BMW.

This is also an unspoken rule of the Berlin International Film Festival, no matter who it is, you must abide by it. ”

Hiroshi Yasho said a little unconvinced: "This is simply discrimination, Mr. Ichikawa, can you bear this breath?"

Ichikawa Kun snorted and said: "What's this, people can sit on Maybach, that's their ability, don't talk about Zhang Yimou." Don't you know what the president of the festival is in a car? Rolls-Royce, aristocratic cars, cars that you can't buy without a certain social status and money. And do you know who the chairman of the Berlin Film Festival is this time? It is Gong Li, the woman behind Zhang Yimou, filmed by Zhang Yimou and starring Gong Li, was once a golden sign of Chinese films, the two of them have this strength, you have to maintain enough respect for powerful opponents, and then work hard to spur yourself to surpass them. Otherwise, you'll always be a Japanese star, and you'll become an international superstar. Do you understand?"

This is Ichikawa Kun's personal words and deeds, the purpose is to let Japan have a few more Yan sister open stars, hearing this, the government office Hiroshima nodded very politely and said: "Hey, thank you Director Ichikawa for your teachings, Hiroji remembers it." ”

Rolls-Royce, it is said that the entire engine is made by hand, and Zhengtai cars, it is said that most of them are made by hand. And even if it is produced, the whole vehicle has been tested for 5,000 miles. The aristocracy of the real local car, the invincible deposit in the high-end car market. Even Maybach and Bentley are slightly inferior to Rolls-Royce.

It can be said that in the world, Rolls-Royce is a representative of aristocracy. With this to pick up the chairman of the Berlin Film Festival, what else can Hiroshi of this office say, only helpless.

The starting price of Rolls-Royce is millions of dollars, and the distinguished status naturally requires a noble price.

Seeing that Hiroshi Yasho accepted the lesson very modestly, it was then that Ichikawa Kun nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, in Ichikawa-kun's heart, he was also very unconvinced, Zhang Yimou was afraid, why did Zhang Yimou use Maybach to pick him up, but he only had BMW's share, at this moment Ichikawa-kun's heart was full of bitterness.
