Chapter 0396 Act 1 For the First Time

Maybe it was because he had a greater reputation in Italy, or maybe because he knew more Italian filmmakers, so when Ji Ming arrived in Rome, he unexpectedly felt a sense of familiarity.

"It seems that the city is really full of love for me, so strong that I can feel it. ”

Listen, is this human talk?

It was still Tang Fan and Zhang Chen who accompanied him, Tang Fan was already very familiar with the boss's style, and he didn't give him a little more emotion. But Zhang Chen was obviously not sophisticated enough, he glanced at Ji Ming several times, showing an incomprehensible expression.

"On the red carpet, you know what it means to be in love. ”

β€œ......”

This time the schedule is very tight, less than two days, to attend the awards ceremony tonight, tomorrow to return to China, Alice is the same, and then she will start "Silent" in Shanghai and devote herself to the filming of the new movie. Compared with Ji Ming's competition for foreign language films and foreign actors on behalf of "Immortals", for Italians, Alice is definitely a bigger star, and "Happy Lazaro" was shortlisted for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Producer...... and other blockbuster nominations.

The David Award is in China, in fact, I haven't heard much of it, domestic fans, pay attention to foreign awards, the Oscars, the three major European awards, the Golden Globe, then the British Academy Film Awards, and then the French CΓ©sar Awards...... The latter two are already considered niche. Although the David Award is the number one film event in Italy, with the withering of masters, the weak economy, and resting on their laurels, Italian films are also declining, of course, it does not mean that there are no good works, such as Ji Ming's "Kennel Horror", which starred in the Cannes Best Actor Award, is also an Italian work.

It's just that the overall influence is not as good as it used to be when the masters gathered.

Art has never existed on its own, and it does not eat the fireworks of the world.

However, the David Award, which has been held for 65 years this year, still has its place in Europe, and the power of tradition cannot be ignored.

Of course, for Ji Ming, this is just part of a plan to strengthen his visibility in Europe β€” a more popular part.

There was not much anxiety on the red carpet, let alone the screams that are common in the three East Asian countries, Ji Ming suddenly felt that screaming was actually a kind of vitality. In Italy, you can feel the twilight at any time, of course, you can also say that it is etiquette, quality, and heritage...... See what you think.

Ji Ming's red carpet is very confident, because there are not only a considerable number of fans and people joining in the fun, but also the sponsorship of Figramu, Italy's top luxury - almost all the filmmakers on the scene are not, it's just weird.

Zhang Chen really felt the Italians' affection for Ji Ming, the girl's flying kiss, sending non-stop, each one more enthusiastic than the other.

"I suspect that as long as Ji Ming gives them a little response, there will be a lot of stories. ”

"......" Tang Fan looked at the little excited Zhang Chen, and a sense of superiority in experience spontaneously emerged: "This is Italy, Sensei said Ji Ming, if you are cheap enough, there will be many stories." ”

Zhang Chen seemed to be very tempted.

Being a single man, it's really a cute and pitiful group.

The entire awards ceremony, in Ji Ming's memory, was about a comfort show - "Happy Lazaro", one of the shortlisted favorites, was not received. "Kennel Horror", which also shined in Cannes before, won many awards including Best Picture, but the Cannes New Film Actor failed to win the actor in his own country, which is quite regrettable.

So Ji Ming kept comforting Alice in various ways that were not embarrassing.

Or after he won the award himself.

An Italian beauty he didn't know won the award, and the best foreign film before lost to "Rome", this can't be helped, people are too good at it, and the Chinese Film Awards have a foreign language film, and there is actually a foreigner filming "Beijing", which is quite shameless.

The best foreign actor was won by Ji Ming.

"Wow, he's a very charming man, and in the summer and autumn he became the focal point of Europe and captured the hearts of many Italian girls. Of course, he is also an extremely good actor, who has shown amazing performances in his productions and has achieved rare success in Italian cinemas. Yes, winner of the 65th Italian Film David Award for Best Foreign Actor: Ji Ming, "Meet the Land of the Gods", China. ”

There were almost no surprises, and even the applause seemed so sure - he was a big hit to win the award.

drove the elegant buff up and went up and down, and then began his comfort show:

"The jackpot is always at the back. ”

"Look, it looks like the biggest prize must be yours. ”

"Wow, Best Picture ......"

"EMM next timeβ€”"

Alice looked at him helplessly: "Will you come to get a foreign language film next time?"

β€œ...... Absolutely. ”

Alice was disappointed that "Happy Lazaro" was obviously not recognized by the jury, but it was actually normal, "Lazaro" was experimental after all, and the use of surreal magicism also challenged the notions of traditional filmmakers.

In the end, Ji Ming had to take out the black material of his own country to comfort her.

"You know, there was a scientist in our country who won the Nobel Prize, she was in her eighties, but we found out that she was not an academician of our National Academy of Sciences, not even a doctorate, and she had never stayed abroad - the latter two are essential for teachers at top universities in China. Many people will not think that her level is not enough, but that there is a problem with the mechanism of academician selection. The reason is the same, I think you can get a more credible award, and then it is not you who should be ashamed. ”

This time the consolation is very high-end, mainly because Alice won the Cannes Jury Prize, one step away from the Palme d'Or, for her, all this is not an empty consolation, but a tangible slap in the face.

She looked at Ji Ming: "We should do "Mo" well - yes, what I just said is very right, we are going to come back and get the best foreign film!"

"The wish was successful. ”

Uh-huh?

Well, it seems that Ji Ming himself is quite angry about the loss of the best foreign film in "Immortals".

Okay, Alice, let's meet at 66 and come to the 66th David Award to slap the face.

......

It doesn't matter if an award is not famous, as long as it has a place to blow and there are Chinese people who win the prize, it will become a bull beep.

Ji Ming was anti-Shanghai, and when he saw the newspaper, he thought that he had really won a particularly awesome award.

"Italy is the longest-running film award second only to the Venice International Film Festival, and the most authoritative domestic award in Italy, which has recognized Fellini, Bertolucci, Rossellini, Desica and many other Italian film masters...... To date, no Chinese actor has appeared in a Chinese film and received a David Award......"

Cow beep, cow beep.

Speaking of Chinese actors, Zhang Guoshi won the Best Foreign Film with "The Red Lantern Hangs High", and Gong Huang won the nomination for Best Foreign Actress. In addition, Chen Chong has mentioned the female supporting role with "The Last Emperor", which is not a foreign country, and Zhao Tao has won the actress with "My Li", and he is also the only Chinese actress.

However, "My Li" is an Italian film, about the bad things between immigrant women and local men, and it is indeed not considered to be in the ranks of "starring in Chinese films and winning the David Award" - in fact, it is the sentence, as long as the sentence is diligent, everyone is the first.

But it doesn't matter what ordinary people think, the important thing is that some people seem to see it.

Zhou Shaohong called Ji Ming and said that Zhou Yuan seemed to be relaxed in tone, I don't know if it was him, or if he knew that someone on the Plum Blossom Award side mentioned this award: "I feel that Zhou Yuan is shaking, pushing you or pushing Xin Boqing, and I also said that you plan to do a musical later, he should think about it." ”

Xin Boqing is a veteran, when a "Happiness Like Flowers" became famous, and the future was quite promising, and later in order to balance the stage and reduce the amount of film and television dramas, he achieved quite a lot in drama, and also won the Golden Lion Award - speaking of which, the Golden Lion Award was wholesale during that period, and the Nobel Prize in Mathematics was also won, which affected the credibility, and was later withdrawn directly when the award was cleaned up and evaluated. In fact, it is not only the cancellation of official awards such as the Golden Lion Award, but also the automatic death of many folk drama awards, such as the Beijing Danny International Stage Performance Award, which was won by Hu Ge, Chen Qiaoen and others, and then stopped.

It reflects the recession of the industry, and the credibility of an award is not so easy to accumulate.

The selection of the Plum Blossom Award is really airtight, in accordance with the principle of organizational confidentiality, and when it comes out with a list of winners, everyone knows, oh, this year they won the award - first publicized, and then awarded, it is also the first in the world.

Ji Ming is not too persistent, the koi fish made a wish, and "The Last Emperor" was indeed performed well, so he had to cross the line of the theme, and it was very possible to win the award.

He is now meeting with the crew and going to the selection to perform a show, which is also the difference between the Plum Blossom Award and Magnolia, it is a bit like a drama festival, and the shortlisted plays have to be performed locally for the big guy to see.

After that, I'll leave it to the koi.

......

"Silence" held a small, but very solemn opening ceremony.

There was no roast suckling pig, no chicken head, and no magic card, just a red cloth covered the camera, and Alice and Ji Ming opened it at the same time, completing the ceremony. But the guests are very impressive-Taohong, Yuanquan, Wang Xiaochen, and of course, Ji Ming, starring Qi Zhi, this is not a particularly unusual thing, generally speaking, when the film is started, it is good to have a leading actor who arrives first, and many times the supporting roles and directors start the film together, because the protagonist has a tight schedule, and it is generally impossible to wait.

In addition to the actors.

Xitian's Zhou Xiyan, Xitian's Zhang Zong, Penguin Film and Television's Sun Zong, producer Wang Juan, and Song Zongzong of Beijing Culture, he also served as the producer, and Yang Zong, who was in charge of publicity. In addition, the producers Wen Yan and Lin Junheng, as well as the CEOs of the two co-producers who have just joined, came in person - some art films were launched, and it is rare to make such a big deal.

After the applause, these CEOs began to entertain, fruits and fruits, milk tea and milk tea, coffee and coffee, dim sum, and fried in Shanghai, in short, they started to work after eating a round belly, and during the entire filming cycle, the food was actually very good, Ji Ming often treated, and the celebrities who came to visit the class also often invited guests, and Peach invited a lot- In the words of a female crew assistant of the crew: It's the kind of person who can watch yourself get fat every day, but the person who invites you to eat and drink is still slim and even in better shape. You simply don't know whether to see this generosity as a favor or as a frame-up.

"Okay, Director Alice, as well as Ji Ming, Director Wen, the crew will be handed over to you. We, fully cooperate, what do you need, what do you need to help, just ask, we will do the best logistics. ”

The Chinese investors are really sweet - Alice is going to get drunk.

She hadn't met the coal boss.

Ji Ming thanked her together: "Thank you bosses." ”

Mr. Song nodded at him: "Don't forget, you are the biggest boss." ”

"How could I forget, I gave so much money. ”

β€œ......”

I like you to be so straightforward.

After the other bosses left, Zhou Xiyan stayed and discussed the company's affairs with Ji Ming. Ji Ming's company, Tiancheng Film and Television, finally won 3.3% of the shares at a valuation of 300 million, costing 10 million, of which 1.5% was taken over from Uncle Bo, and he probably still kept 0.5, which is a possibility.

These actions, in fact, can't be concealed from those who live in "Tianyan Check" all day long, especially the main control of "Mo" is this Tiancheng Film and Television, and after checking it, you will know that the legal person is Yang Ruyi, and the shareholder is Ji Ming, 3.3% is enough to enter the ranks of the top ten shareholders of Xitian.

Ji Ming became a shareholder of the brokerage company and became his own boss. ”

Ji Ming officially replaced Uncle Bo and became Xitian's number one signboard. ”

Ji Ming became a shareholder in Liuxitian, breaking the rumors of self-reliance. ”

All these things also brought Ji Ming from the entertainment version to the financial version again and again, and he became one of the bigwigs behind the scenes with the naked eye, learning from the sect leader.

"The company intends to sign a group of green leaf actors, and then newcomers, so that you can use it well. ”

"Mr. Zhou, the frequency of my movies will not be high, maybe this year will be like this, you really have to think about it. If you want to point at me, you might as well sign a few musical theater actors, and I can help you digest it. ”

Zhou Xiyan smiled: "I'm mentally prepared, in fact, it's not just you, now the country is also a director-centered system, and the main actors can't really get involved with Xitian's ability." First of all, the green leaf actors and newcomers provide them with a team, and if someone gets up, then follow your model to re-sign the contract, and see if you can keep a few people, I hope there will be a virtuous circle. Other actors, I'm going to talk to them about signing new contracts. ”

Good courage.

"Don't look at me like that, the main thing is that the income from "Immortals" and "The Wandering Earth" gives me confidence, 300 million, enough for me to try, if I don't dare, then I don't want to say anything about China's CAA. ”

"Of course I'm in favor with both hands. Ji Ming thought for a while: "If you don't think I'm crazy, I can give you a bottom, if there is really a big difficulty in this model one day, I still have the ability to help you." ”

"Good. ”

Zhou Xiyan's eyes lit up, it didn't take long for her attempt, and there would be results within three or five years. In three or five years, Ji Ming will not flop, and even if the golden body is not broken, this promise will have the effect of bringing the dead back to life.

"Sister Zhou, thank you in advance. ”

The confidence is full of confidence.

"We look forward to your success. ”

Ji Ming is really looking forward to it, if Xitian can rise to become a CAA in China, Ji Ming, as the most senior partner, will of course benefit immensely, just talking about the huge amount of company resources that can be used, it is enough to make people tempted.

"Thank you, thank you," Zhou Xiyan was really a little excited, and thanked him twice: "Okay, then I'll go back to Beijing, you can be busy here." If you don't want to do things like Li Zhou before, tell me, and I'll let Zhang Jun deal with it. ”

"Haha, okay. ”

"However, you also need to set rules and put on a prestige, otherwise there will be more unnecessary trouble. ”

Ji Ming nodded, taught.

......

"It's all gone. Ji Ming stretched: "It's so good." ”

"We'll be gone, and you'll say the same. Wang Xiaochen pointed at her, she and Yuanquan both came to participate in the start-up, and the scene had not yet reached the two of them, and they had to join the group two weeks later - it was too much to ask them to follow the group from beginning to end.

Teacher Taohong started work with Ji Ming, and she had more roles.

"I'll help you oversee him. ”

"I'm afraid you'll talk to him about it. Yuan Quan obviously didn't believe it.

Ji Ming smiled very happily, there was a kind of release, he was finally going to return to the crew, after "The Last Emperor", he hadn't filmed for a long time, and the graduation drama was not counted, what have he been busy with, touring, participating in film festivals, winning awards, roadshows, fashion activities, publicity...... It's the end of it.

Alice is a director who likes to shoot roughly from the front to the back, and the directors have their own habits, and there are those who like to shoot from the last scene forward.

When she was preparing, Ji Ming and Taohong went to make up and style.

The first play of "Silence" is when Yang Ming wakes up from a five-year coma, returns to the dance troupe, and meets Mr. Chunya. She gave Yang Ming a general overview of the changes in the dance troupe in the past five years.

Jing is in the big dance room, there are a lot of people, and the extras who practice dance, including Chu Xiao and Chunhua, are also going to appear - they left the dance room, Yang Ming came in retrograde, and the fresh newcomer was in stark contrast to Yang Ming, who had long hair and stubble and the style of a literary uncle.

"First Scene, First Act, First Time, Action!"

The clapper fell, and the filming of "Silence" officially began.

"I'm so tired. Lin Chunhua tilted her waist and rubbed her legs.

Chu Xiao smiled at her, and took the lead in walking over to get the bag: "Let's go, go back and let someone rub it for you." ”

"Somebody help me rub it. She followed behind, her tone was quite ambiguous, and she looked at Chu Xiao's background with small eyes.

"Okay. Again, the actress behaved a little more beautifully, like a deer in the woods, with shining eyes, particularly cute, and easily frightened. "Alice's communication with the actors through translation will still have a little impact, but not much.

Lin Chunhua thought about it and nodded, her character is the most aura among the new dancers, a supporting role group pet.

β€œ...... The second time, Action. ”

This one was filmed four times, and when the second act was filmed for the third time, Ji Ming came over after putting on makeup - his half-length hair, loosely tied with a ball, the stubble on his face was left today, and the makeup made him several years older, wearing a dark gray casual suit, a black T-shirt inside, jeans underneath, slender and straight, and a pair of good legs at a glance.

His eyes were confused and depressed.

When Alice saw it, her eyelids jumpedβ€”it turned out that working with a cow beep actor was like this.

Toot, the character jumps in front of you.
