Chapter 0423 - The Most Uncontroversial in History

When Ji Ming heard his name, he also saw that Taohong's smiling eyes gradually widened, and then the smile became shocked.

Ha.

"Looks like I won the prize?"

Peach is not so uninformed, when people won the international actress, Ji Ming was not born yet. After being shocked, hearing Ji Ming's question, he finally smiled: "Yes, congratulations." โ€

Ji Ming laughed, snorted, and let out a deep breath.

This award is too natural to come, so when it really comes, the weight of the dust settles and dreams come true is also particularly distinct - compared to Cannes, Ji Ming's expectations in Venice are incomparable, looking back at his short three-year acting experience, step by step, he has never been lost, although many people may not think intellectually that he will be better than Joaquin Phoenix, but metaphysics, he honestly believes that Ji Ming will win this award.

Especially domestic counterparts.

They witnessed Ji Ming's unstoppable ascension.

Yuan Quan, Wen Yan, Alice Lowach, and even the crew of "Lanxin", Zhang Jiajia and other Chinese-language filmmakers, all reacted at this time, and the applause was particularly warm - this is the second Venetian actor of Chinese filmmakers, among several major awards, the actor is the most "stingy" award to Chinese in Venice, so it is also particularly rare, after all, the last time was 25 years ago.

The live broadcast was very to Joaquin Phoenix, who of course was applauding, and the smile was very gentle on his ravine-covered face.

When it was even more cheap, the director made a quick switch, 22-year-old Ji Ming and 45-year-old Jie Kun, one is tender and the other has gone through vicissitudes, but the former won the award, tsk. It is estimated that on social platforms, this director will be greeted many times.

"He's only 22 years old, and of course, he's not the youngest winner of the Venetian Best Actor award, but he's still younger than the vast majority of all the actors who have been honored. We think that unlike many talented young actors, in addition to their amazing spirituality, his performances are based on a wealth of acting techniques and deep artistic thinking, which necessarily requires a great deal of stage practice, which is especially admirable at his age.

His performance in "Silence" is like a dreamy dark unicorn, bringing everyone into the nightmare he created, and experiencing an unparalleled experience with the male protagonist, it is a tragic and silent struggle, it is a warm and terrifying battle - awarding Ji Ming this award makes the Venice Film Festival feel honored. โ€

After listening to the award speech, Ji Ming got up and took the stage, almost embracing the past, the colleagues of "Mo", the compatriots of "Lanxin", and the new friends of "Martin Eden......

Venice's Best Actor Trophy may be the three major trophies that best meet the word "cup", it is very large, and the shape is standard, with a gold cup on the top and a base on the bottom, which is very heavy - of course, it is a pity that it is not made of pure gold.

"Ah, thank you. After Ji Ming said thank you in Chinese, English and Italian, he still delivered a speech in English: "As Mr. Welch said, I am not the youngest Venice actor winner, as we all know, the youngest is also a Chinese actor, coincidentally, his wife is sitting below, she is an important member of the unparalleled team of "Mo", an excellent actress, thank you, Miss Yuanquan, thank you director Alice ยท Ms. Lowach, your excellence is the foundation of all good, thank you Wen Yan, from Cannes to Venice, you have your company, thank you Ms. Taohong, it is their genius that gives such a unique opportunity to perform, can create such a role as Yang Ming.

When we decided to make a film like Mo, although we chose the perspective of a vegetative dancer, in reality, we really wanted the public to be able to perceive the silent group of people who may not have the newsworthiness to attract the media, who may not have enough energy to provoke discussion, and who have to deal with themselves in silence even though they are in a difficult situation, as if they are on an island. If we want less confrontation and more goodwill, then paying attention to these silent groups is essential. I'd be honored if this film could give you a little bit of thought about it.

Finally, thank you to my mother, my teachers, and my significant other, for the sound of the piano you played for me in my ears at this moment, and I hope that you can also hear my heart for you.

Thank you all, thank you Venice and good night. โ€

What a shy Chinese.

Yuan Quan heard the foreigner behind him use English, and kindly "complained" - probably because Ji Ming used default to avoid saying "I love you" directly to Chu Qing.

Judging from the entire awards ceremony, Ji Ming's award is expected, even though defeating Jackie Quinn is to break a lot of predictions, but he is not a dark horse - the real dark horse is "Joker" who blatantly won the Golden Lion, which is extremely unexpected.

The jury, and in particular its president, Luquecรญa, clearly had plenty of courage.

In the later session of the jury meeting with the media, the first question was about this dark horse: "Why did you give the Golden Lion to a comic adaptation and superhero-themed work? and Jie Kun did not win the actor, is it because the movie has already won the Golden Lion?"

Luquecia smiled more easily, she talked about the social value of the clown, as well as the artistic value, and asked everyone to understand the subjective choice of the jury: "...... We faithfully give awards based on our own experience and aesthetics, which of course has its limitations, but it's also why every Venice is worth looking forward to, isn't it?

As for the actor, indeed, we decided on the Golden Lion Award first, and at that time it was determined that Jie Kun would not win the best actor. However, even if there were some regrets at the time, it must have been very short-lived, when we thought about the award of the actor and Ji Ming's name began to appear in our minds, almost all the judges, not even almost, the seven of us unanimously agreed to award this award to Ji Ming.

His performance in "Silence" was unrepeatable and unrepeatable, which allowed us to determine the award without hesitation, and thank you very much for his excellence, which saved us a lot of brain cells โ€“ you know, there are not many times in the whole selection process where we have been so quick to agree. โ€

Italian director Paulo Welch, who presented Ji Ming with the award, added: "The first time I saw the film, I decided that I wanted to vote for Ji Ming, and every time I watched it again, I would continue to stand firm in that idea, and he did give a performance worthy of any recognition." โ€

Another judge, Mary Harlan, also confirmed this: "In the voting for the best actor, everyone's unanimity is indeed rare, and I think this is enough to show how wonderful Ji Ming's performance is." โ€

The Chinese media below, when they heard this question, their breath was thin. Although I know that the judges are very evasive, any "Ji Ming's award was made by Jie Kun", or "the balance principle of the Golden Lion Award" will affect the quality of this actor trophy - at least in the short term.

But after listening to the answer, the doubts are gone.

The judges revealed very frankly that seven votes unanimously voted for Ji Ming, that is, the most veritable actor, whether "Joker" won the Golden Lion or not.

Ah, a lot of headlines come to their minds.

Ji Ming unanimously won the Venice actor. โ€

"The most uncontroversial actor in history, Ji Ming conquered all the judges. โ€

"The big hit won the championship, Ji Ming did not lose a vote, and sat firmly on the throne of the new actor in Venice. โ€

It's too hard.

The latter answer, in fact, does not have much to care about - for the domestic media. However, Roman Polanski's new work "I Accuse" won the Grand Jury Prize, and on the side of the European media, there is still a rather controversial topic, personal moral and legal issues, should influence the judges' decision? Obviously, the answer of this jury is no.

Morality belongs to morality, and movies belong to movies.

You can post a manuscript - the one-eyed reporter thought so, maybe the comments could make a noise.

......

Although Alice Lowach did not gain anything, the crew of "Silence" did not have any loss - if "Silence" had and only had one chance to be recognized, all the main creative staff would agree and add this honor to Ji Ming's body, from any point of view, he is the soul of "Silence".

After the award ceremony, Ji Ming briefly chatted with Lou Ye and Gong Li, "Lan Xin" has no results in Venice, presumably they are also mentally prepared, at least Ji Ming did not see too much chagrin and anger on their faces at the moment, and then they will go to the Toronto Film Festival non-stop, "Lan Xin" has been set for December 7, and now it is time for the box office.

Then he took the staff to Milan, because to catch the "GQ" itinerary, the flight time in Venice did not match, and Milan happened to have a direct flight to Shanghai - he took a car from here, about noon tomorrow to be able to resist Shanghai, and attend a dinner in the evening, the time was tight.

From Venice to Milan, it takes about two and a half hours, Tang Fan very obediently arranged an interview with One-Eyed Wave in the car, since he won the award, this interview must be there, it is nothing more than a question of whose family, and the reports of the three major movies have always been the highlight of One-Eyed Waves, and other families are a little worse, including the six princesses, so there is actually nothing to choose.

The one-eyed reporter who went to Milan with Ji Ming and then returned to China together was a man, young and looking very empty.

Gee.

"I'm sorry, let you accompany me on my journey. โ€

"It's okay, it's okay, I haven't congratulated you yet, officially congratulations, since the new century, the first Chinese Venice actor. โ€

Ji Ming haha, this prefix is added well, since the new century, for Chinese films, before the new century and after the new century, there are indeed two different categories - especially the national teacher opened the era of commercial blockbusters with "Hero" in 2002, many people feel that since then, Chinese films have sunk greatly.

This is also the first question raised by the one-eyed wave reporter, referred to as Langji.

"Do you agree that in the era of commercial blockbusters, Chinese films have actually regressed artistically?"

In fact, it's hard to say that, Cannes' artistic director Fu Mao actually answered a similar question, that is, whether Chinese films are getting worse and worse, and no longer have the grand occasion of frequently winning awards in the past - in fact, he said that Chinese films didn't win many awards back then, haha, it's just that because it's too far, the time span has been narrowed in perception, and every film market has highs and lows, pursuing different things at different times, sometimes it's an international film festival award, and sometimes, it's the box office.

In my opinion, in fact, movies are a very personal thing, no matter what kind of internal motivation is based on, filmmakers make a movie in line with their own hearts - in order to win awards or for the box office, there is no question of progress or regression. After the new century, there are still many directors who only want to make what they want to do, and whether they win awards or not is not the standard for measuring the value of these films. โ€

Lang Ji nodded, didn't go deeper, it was originally from the beginning: "Your performance in "Mo" is actually very different from "Immortals", from an ideal state, actors in different stories, should indeed have completely different performances, the most suitable for the story of the performance, but that is very difficult, because in the final analysis, it is all played by one person, there will be inertia and unrealized similarities, so how do you do it, in different works, you can give completely different but high-level performances?"

Ji Ming thought about it for a while, of course he couldn't say that the training of the koi played a big role - speaking of which, this time he won the Venice actor, and the koi took it without accepting the wish, which still made Ji Ming a little happy.

"I think how to separate a role from the body is something that every actor needs to think about and work hard for a lifetime, and how to ensure that these roles not only have the unique creation of the actor, but also do not lose the independence and uniqueness of the role, is a difficult problem to say, including myself, because I still play relatively little, and I face fewer challenges in this regard, and there will still be challenges in this regard in the future. โ€

"Okay, then, can you talk about the role of Yang Ming? After the premiere, a lot of analysis and speculation emerged. โ€

Ji Ming smiled: "Specifically, I still hope that everyone will go to the cinema to watch it for themselves." Then the character of Yang Ming ......"

Lang Ji did get a rare opportunity, even after an hour, Tang Fan signaled that Ji Ming needed to take a break, but he still got a rare opportunity to visit in depth, in addition to Venice actor and "Mo", he also asked about dramas and musicals, and asked questions about film selection and new works.

Very satisfying.

I even couldn't help but post a "great" emoji in the work group.

"What's wrong?

"In the car?"

"Wow, from Venice to Milan, the humidity of the water city is still lingering on my side, the fashion of Milan is not far away, he gently approached me, the base notes of pine make me feel like I am in the forest of the Nordic wilderness......"

A group of drama spirits.

"What's the matter?"

It's still the team leader who is reliable.

"After talking for an hour, I can send several manuscripts when I go back, haha. โ€

"Hah, with Ji Ming's meticulousness, nothing can be missed. Is there any news on the new film?"

โ€œ...... No, it is estimated that there will be no new film plans. โ€

"How much money can he share in "Nezha"? Is it the ratio that Fox.com said?"

โ€œ...... It's about money. โ€

"How much box office does he expect "Mo" to have? compared to "Falling to the Immortals"?"

โ€œ...... He never talked about the box office. โ€

So a row of white eyes appeared in the group.

In fact, his colleagues are teasing him, lest he be too proud - he can get Ji Ming's one-hour interview, and in the entertainment reporter circle, it is almost the third level of filmmakers. In recent months, the interview with "GQ" has probably reached this length.

......

Domestic.

The closer to the actor award, the more nervous everyone becomes, and even the popularity of Weibo has dropped a little, and everyone is waiting. Until the movie queen was revealed, Gong Li had no chance, and everyone had a vague bad premonition.

"Gong Li didn't take it, why don't I think it's good. โ€

"Ji Ming is in danger. โ€

"After all, it is a Chinese actor, and it is inevitable to suffer a loss, and compared with European Americans, it can't be compared. โ€

"Could it be that Ji Ming really wants to plant it once?"

After a small wave of discussion peaks, it fell into silence, and then it was refreshing, refreshing, I don't know how many people were there to swipe the topic page of "Venice International Film Festival Awards Ceremony" on Weibo, click on the real-time card, swipe down, slide ......

In the office of "GQ", there was a sudden "bang", and the editor-in-chief Tang slammed his fist on the desk, and there was a loud bang, which scared the little assistant who worked overtime almost denatured.

"Take it!"

"What?"

"Ji Ming won the actor, haha," Tang Bian stood up, circled twice, rubbed his hands, and picked up his mobile phone: "I'll send him a WeChat first, but at this time, he will definitely have an explosion of information, I don't think he can see it, so let's call Yang Ruyi first." โ€

Although the little assistant is small, his qualifications are not shallow, and he is also relieved at this time, and he is more confident in tomorrow's dinner, he glanced at Tang Bian who went to call, he thought about it, and sent a message to the work group: "Ji Ming, take the actor." โ€

This is a large group of dinner preparations, and the specific work is in a small group, this group is to send notices and gossip, and it is obvious that everyone has not slept at this time, and they all exploded all at once.

"Did you really take it?"

"Venetian actor? โ€

"Tomorrow is going to be careful. โ€

"It's really bullish, it's only 22 years old, tsk. โ€

"Immortals, immortals, invincible, not defeated. โ€

"Finally relieved, in this way, tomorrow's finale will be more deserved, otherwise although he is in full swing, his qualifications and awards are still worse than the previous actor. โ€

โ€œ...... Former actor, you are really realistic enough. โ€

"Hahaha, isn't it a former actor? The current actor is Ji Da actor. โ€

There is a burst of heat, and there is only more hot on Weibo - compared to Berlin, the popularity at this time is about a thousand times, this is the power of the top + actor.

A short news from Weibo movies - "Best Actor at the 76th Venice International Film Festival, Ji Ming, !!! "Mo"

The large list of exclamation points at the back may best express the editor's mood.

And under this Weibo, the comments broke thousands, tens of thousands, forwards, and 100,000, and it didn't take much time - the hot search word of "Ji Ming Venice Actor" also reached the top almost instantly. If there is no Weibo manipulation here, Ji Ming himself doesn't believe it, but it won't be worth the name in minutes.

Hundreds of thousands of media, tens of thousands of netizens, burst out of the extreme enthusiasm of gold digging for treasures, on the Chinese Internet, wantonly spread the news.

Ji Ming, Venice actor!
