Chapter 491
November 15th. Yenching Film Academy. The 4th College Student Short Film Festival was held at the Yenching Film Academy, and the award ceremony was held this evening, starting at 19:00 and expected to end around 21:00. Cheng Yijian and the others took leave and came to Yenching Film Academy with Ye Zheng. There are also **, Wang Ying, Ma Huijie, Du Xiaoyun, and Xu Qi and other key members of the crew.
Three days ago, Cheng Yijian, as a director, received an invitation from the jury and asked him to take some people from the crew to participate in the micro film festival. Cheng Yijian, who received the invitation, was lying on the top bunk in the dormitory reading a book, and after hanging up the phone, he screamed and jumped up. Then his head hit the ceiling hard, and with a roar of pain, he collapsed on the bed again.
The invitation issued by the jury means that the micro-film "I Heard" has at least one nomination, or one of the twenty excellent works. The 4th College Student Short Film Festival set up a total of 12 awards. They are Best Micro Film, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Original Music, Best Animated Micro Film, Most Creative Micro Film, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Editing Award, and Best Cinematography Award. There will be four nominations and one final winner for each award. In addition to this, twenty excellent works will be selected among the works that have not won awards and nominations.
Only the crews that have been nominated and qualified for outstanding works will be invited by the judging panel. Cheng Yijian informed everyone in the crew of the news at lightning speed through chat tools, phone calls, etc., and even Yang Lan and Luo Wen made a special call. After learning the news, everyone was very excited and wanted to go to the awards party, but the jury team only gave ten tickets, so after discussion, Ye Zheng and Cheng Yijian went in with the tickets. The rest of the people who followed the people who went to play were outside watching the big screen live at night.
"There are more than 2,100 entries in this college student micro film festival, more than 300 more than the previous one. With the holding of the micro film festival, its influence is also expanding, this time the micro film festival is jointly organized by 20 universities and five film and television companies across the country. Cheng Yijian pointed to the billboard outside the award hall and said. Ye Zheng nodded, looked at the five film and television companies, and unexpectedly saw Five Elements Film and Television. Just three days ago, Time Music and Five Elements Film and Television reached a series of cooperation agreements and formed a cooperative alliance.
Time and Space Music handed over the script of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", and there are other commercial partnerships. Five Elements Film and Television has opened up many channels of sharing to time and space music. As a result, several high-level executives of Time and Space Music learned about Ye Zheng's other identity, a movie screenwriter. Two scripts, one helped Wuxing Film and Television win the box office of 950 million so far and immediately broke 1 billion, and the other "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" has become the basis of cooperation between the two sides and an important bargaining chip for time and space music negotiations. Ye Zheng's contribution to the music of time and space has once again added a strong stroke. Not only the music team admired Ye Zheng, but the managers led by Sun Zhaofu also admired the young chairman of the company for a long time. Let's ask, how many people in the world are there who start from scratch and build a huge company at such an age with their own talent and hard work?
"Huh, there is even Kyushu Film and Television!" Cheng Yijian frowned and said. Kyushu Film and Television Company was founded by Zhou Bin's father, Zhou Hongxin, and when Zhou Bin had a conflict with them, he was slapped by Ye Zheng. Ye Zheng also noticed it and nodded slightly. It seems that this time, they also received an invitation from the jury, and it is said that Zhou Bin learned from his father that there was more than one nomination for their micro-film "Etude of Love". Cheng Yijian said again.
"It must be through the back door!" Mr. Xu said. "Don't say that, Zhou Bin's character is not very good, but he still has a hand in making movies. ** said: "I probably know the script of this "Etude of Love", which seems to be about two college students male and female classmates who have been good friends since high school, and the girl likes the boy but is embarrassed to confess directly, so he lets the boy pretend to be his boyfriend in order to practice falling in love and getting close to him, and finally the boy also likes the story of the girl. ”
"Practicing falling in love? What kind of thing? Isn't it the story of a woman seducing a man!" Xu Qi said disdainfully: "Can we have our deaf and mute creativity? Hmph, I curse them that no matter how many nominations there are, they won't get any awards." By the way, **, I think there should be a nomination for your Best Actor, right?" "It's hard to say, there are so many entries, even if there is one excellent one out of a hundred, there are twenty, and the competition for each award is fierce and cruel, even if it is a nomination, it is difficult to get. ”
** smiled: "So when you participate in an award ceremony like this, unless you have strong confidence or know the result in advance, don't have the mentality that you will definitely win the award." Otherwise, the higher the expectations, the higher the disappointment. Last year, I saw a crew go to the awards party with flowers and streamers to celebrate after winning the award...... They thought they could win one or two awards, but in the end they only got one award for excellence. Although it was also a good thing, compared to their original expectations, this gap was too big, and the group went happily, and finally left gloomily. ”
"I don't think it's a big problem. Wang Ying said with a smile: "**, when the micro-movie is in the online movie, you will come to the stage to accept the award." Cheng Yijian said. Ye Zheng squinted at him: "Hey, I found that you can fantasize better than Xu Qi?" "Ah, what did Brother Ye tell me to do?" Xu Qi was discussing with ** the academic question of which beauty here is white-skinned, and suddenly heard Ye Zheng mention him, thinking that he was calling him.
"It's okay, you can continue to look at the beauties. Ye Zheng said. "Oooh. Xu Qi turned his head and continued to discuss with **: "I think the girl you just talked about, beautiful is beautiful, but looking at the face, you know that she has a bad temper and is difficult to serve, such a girl can't have it." "Uh-huh!" ** nodded sympathetically: "You're right, hey, look at the girl who is drinking juice over there, it's very pure!" "It's really good!" Xu Qi's eyes lit up.
"Go and ask her for a phone number?" "Don't go now, I'll go again when our crew comes on stage to accept the award, how face-saving does it seem?" Xu Qi said: "Let's stop there and say, sister, give me a phone number, and I'll guide you on how to make a movie another day." She will definitely be very excited to hand over her phone number, maybe even ask an hour earlier, Ye Zheng and the ten of them enter the hall with admission tickets, this is a theater of the Yenching Film Academy, which can accommodate more than a thousand people. In fact, generally invited crews can only get about three tickets, and there is a saying that if the jury gives a certain crew more than five tickets, it means that they are likely to have more than one nomination. Ten admission tickets. This number makes the people in their crew look forward to this awards party more and more intensely, are there three nominations? A group of people happily found their place and sat down, Du Xiaoyun said with emotion: "I have taken on a lot of scenes over the years, but it is the first time to come to the scene of this kind of awards party. Although it was an awards party for micro-films, it was also very memorable for me. But you are different, you are still very young, and there is still a long way to go. You are also very good, and you will definitely be able to make a difference in the future. Aunt Du is looking forward to seeing you win the Hundred Flowers Golden Horse Award. ”
"We'll definitely be in touch with you in the future if there's a role for you. Ye Zheng said with a smile. "Well, I like to perform, and although I open a restaurant, acting is my lifelong career. Du Xiaoyun said. "Cut, career?hehe......" A voice came, and Ye Zheng didn't have to look back to know who it was, Zhou Bin.
"What do you mean?" ** turned his head and looked at Zhou Bin lightly. Zhou Bin's eyes flashed with resentment, but he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, just snorted coldly: "I didn't expect you to be invited by the jury, it seems that you also have your nominations today? But don't be too happy! Having your nomination doesn't mean that you can win the award!" He looked at ** and said: "**, don't laugh, you won the best actor last year, it doesn't mean that you can still get it this year! We didn't win the best short film and the best director last year, but we will definitely get it this year!"
"Good luck. ** said lightly. Zhou Bin snorted coldly, then looked at Ye Zheng, gritted his teeth and said: "Boy, you don't have to look calm, I don't know how thick the sky is, I will let you see today, what is a good movie, and what kind of talent can make a difference in the future." My future, our future, is not something that you rabble can imagine!" After that, he waved his hand to the group of people who followed him: "Let's go, when we come to the stage to receive the award, they will look good!" A group of people followed Zhou Bin to the front row, they have a relationship with the jury, and it is relatively simple to get some top positions.
"It's funny, do you know who gave them so much confidence?" asked Ye Zheng with a smile. "They also came in with ten people, and they got the same number of tickets as us, does that mean they will also have three nominations?" asked Ma Huijie. Xu Qi said a little unpleasantly: "I said it all, no matter how many nominations they make, they can't get any of them!" "Don't talk nonsense." Ye Zheng looked at someone sitting in front of them and said, "Honestly wait for the start of the party." ”
Not long, Ye Zheng and the others saw another crew from Huaxia University of the Arts. This time, there are about 50 invited crews at the college student micro film festival, and the organizer Yenching Film Academy has special rights to place some uninvited crews and audiences to come in to watch the awards party, in addition to some media reporters. The influence of the college student micro film festival is increasing, and the college student micro film festival in the past two years has also attracted more and more media attention.
As the time got closer, more and more people came, some media reporters also came, and the big screen outside the theater of Yenching Film Academy also began to broadcast live. Even, there is a live broadcast on the Internet, but there is no live broadcast on the TV station. Suddenly, the bright lights went out a lot, the light dimmed, and the whole scene suddenly became much quieter. On Ye Zheng's side, Cheng Yijian originally looked calm, but now he looked very nervous, kept rubbing his hands, and muttered: "God bless, God bless us, we must get an award." ”
"Don't look like this, right?" Ye Zheng said with a smile. "You don't know, it's a very important thing, and if we can win an award, preferably if I get a nomination, I'll have enough reasons to convince my parents to agree to me going into directing. Cheng Yijian said: "I want to make a movie, but I don't want to have a fight with my parents, of course, the best way is to persuade them to agree with my idea." "Well, that's good. Ye Zheng said: "But why don't you want to get a best director?" "If there is, of course it's okay!" Cheng Yijian laughed quietly and said: "But I don't count it, and even if there is a director's nomination or award, this award has half of your credit." ”
Ye Zheng smiled and shook his head: "That's your ability, it has nothing to do with me." I'm here today to see the excitement. "Maybe there's your best original screenplay." Cheng Yijian said. "It's harder. Ye Zheng said: "Because the script is different from the movie, a good script, if there is no good team, is likely to be made into a very bad thing." But that doesn't negate the quality of the script. I watched the best original screenplay of the previous three editions before I came, and the award-winning scripts of two of them made a micro-film that didn't even get a good work. "Then if our micro-film wins a best micro-film or the best creative micro-film, you will go on stage to accept the award. Cheng Yijian said. Ye Zheng squinted at him: "Hey, I found that you can fantasize better than Xu Qi?"
"Ah, what did Brother Ye call me for?" Xu Qi was discussing with ** the academic question of which beauty here has white skin, and suddenly heard Ye Zheng mention him, thinking that he was calling him. "It's okay, you can continue to look at the beauties. Ye Zheng said. "Oooh. Xu Qi turned his head and continued to discuss with **: "I think the girl you just talked about, beautiful is beautiful, but looking at the face, you know that she has a bad temper and is difficult to serve, such a girl can't have it." ”
"Uh-huh!" ** nodded sympathetically: "You're right, hey, look at the girl who is drinking juice over there, it's very pure!" "It's really good!" Xu Qi's eyes lit up. "Go and ask her for a phone number?" "Don't go now, I'll go again when our crew comes on stage to accept the award, how face-saving does it seem?" Xu Qi said: "Let's stop there and say, sister, give me a phone number, and I'll guide you on how to make a movie another day." She's going to be very excited to hand over her phone number, and maybe ask for an autograph!" "Well, when I win Best Actor, I'll ask for it." Said **.
"Didn't you say don't have too high expectations?" Xu Qi wondered. **Pouting: "Didn't I say it, unless I have a very strong self-confidence, I have a very strong self-confidence, is that modest and low-key outside just now?" As they spoke, suddenly the light in the entire room disappeared completely, plunging into darkness.
Early the next morning, Qianqian came downstairs to the Jiahao Hotel with Sangsang's record. Ye Zheng took the record and played it on the computer in the hotel.
This is an album of Sangsang covering other people's songs, including ten songs, Ye Zheng listened carefully from the first song, what he cared about was not the adaptation of these songs, nor the level of accompaniment, he only cared about Sangsang's singing level. Qianqian stood behind Ye Zheng with some trepidation, and until now, she didn't know what Ye Zheng did. Yesterday, after Ye Zheng had a conversation with her, he met with Sangsang and left, and then Qianqian wanted to pay the fee, only to learn that the fee was paid by Ye Zheng.
Qianqian and Sang Sang were both shocked, they didn't expect the person who saved them to be so kind-hearted. However, the two of them guessed for a long time, but they didn't guess Ye Zheng's identity. And what makes them feel strange is that although Ye Zheng is young and just a teenager, everything is up to him.
Who the hell was he? How was he going to help Sangsang? They didn't know, but they knew it was a God-given opportunity. So, Qianqian took a day off, sent Yanyan to school first, and then hurriedly came here with the record. Ye Zheng listened carefully, he was still quite satisfied with Sang Sang's singing skills, she did have the singing level of an ordinary singer.
Can be built, he nodded slightly. So the next thing to do is to analyze Sangsang's vocal characteristics and find some suitable songs for her. The most convenient way is to find a singer with similar vocal qualities to Sangsang and use his songs directly. He listened carefully, occasionally playing a certain paragraph repeatedly, without saying a word, Qianqian dared to speak, and Junko also looked quite nervous. Yesterday, Junko was on the way back, and when she talked about the mother and daughter, her eyes were red. He is a rough and honest man but soft at heart. Soft and peaceful, slightly hoarse, this is a more characteristic sound.
Ye Zheng's eyes widened suddenly, and he thought of a person, Ah Sang, Ah Sang, Ah Sang...... Ye Zheng was in a trance for a while, not only the voice characteristics were similar, but the names were also so similar. Even their fates are similar...... He sighed softly, turned his head and nodded to Qianqian: "It's okay, we can help her, let's go to the hospital together, I want to talk to her." ”
"Hello!" Qianqian showed a surprised smile on her face, nodded again and again, and asked a little embarrassedly: "May I ask who ......you are" Ye Zheng smiled: "I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself." My name is Ye Zheng, his name is Shunzi, and we are the ...... of Time and Space Music Company When I say help her, I want to sign her into our music company and help her make an album. ”
"Oh, Mr. Ye......! Brother Shunzi!" Qianqian nodded, but she still had a lot of questions in her heart. This Ye Zheng said that he is a music company, so what is his status in the music company, and he has the right to decide whether to sign a singer or not? Moreover, she also said to Ye Zheng yesterday that Sang Sang considered that he had no time to make an album, so what did he mean by saying that he wanted to help Sang Sang make an album? Is it to help promote Sang Sang's cover record? Although her heart is full of doubts, she knows that it is good to have someone to help, even if it is just to help sell this cover album of Sangsang, it is a good thing that cannot be desired. She couldn't wait to tell Sangsang the good news.
"Sangsang!" Qianqian pushed the door in, it was a six-person ward, but there was only one patient in the entire room. This was specially arranged by the nurse, like Sangsang's situation, he needed a quieter environment to rest. Yesterday, Ye Zheng's behavior made the nurse very moved, she told her colleagues about it, and after discussing it with several nurses, they specially arranged such a room for her, and also pooled money to buy some fruit and a carton of milk and sent it. In fact, the vast majority of people have a kind heart, and sometimes they are hidden under indifference and numbness, and all they need is a call.
"Sangsang, we're here!" Qianqian happily ran to Sangsang's hospital room and said to her, "Two kind-hearted gentlemen are willing to help you!" "Hello Sangsang." Ye Zheng smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Sang Sang's hand, and said with concern: "How is your body feeling now?" "It's much better, thank you for saving me!" Sang Sang said gratefully: "Thank you very much for your willingness to help me!
"It's okay, it's just 10,000 yuan. Ye Zheng said with a smile. Sang Sang shook his head: "It may not be a big deal for Mr., but it is very important to me, Mr. helped me pay for it yesterday, and that is the money I saved my life." I owe him a favor, but I can't owe too much. Don't worry, I can still take out the thousands of dollars for hospitalization. ”
Ye Zheng smiled and shook his head: "You misunderstood what I meant." I mean, it's just 10,000 dollars, and I'm going to help you get dozens or even hundreds of 10,000 dollars. Sang Sang and Qian Qian were stunned.
"Oh my God!" Qianqian's eyes widened, covering her mouth with her hand, looking frightened: "That means hundreds of thousands or even more than a million?" Ye Zheng nodded with a smile. Sang Sang was stunned, she didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. What can I do to get her hundreds of thousands or even millions? And she looks so confident. Finally coming back to her senses, she asked, "I don't know the name and identity of Mr. yet......
"Oh, I forgot to introduce it. Qianqian slapped her head and hurriedly said: "His name is Ye Zheng, and he is from a music company." "Mr. Ye turned out to be a ...... of the music company" Sang Sang suddenly understood, probably to help her sell this cover record! Sang Sang was suddenly stunned.
Ye Zheng...... Very young...... Music Company ...... A series of information flashed through her mind, her expression quickly changed from surprise to extreme shock, she looked at Ye Zheng with an expression of disbelief, and asked blankly: "Ye Zheng, are you Ye Zheng?" Ye Zheng smiled and nodded: "Yes, I am Ye Zheng, Ye Zheng of Time and Space Music, on behalf of Time and Space Music, I invite you to join, and we will do our best to create an album created by me for you." ”
"Oh my God......" Sang Sang felt that his heart was about to fly out, and his breathing was not smooth. Of course she knows Ye Zheng! Of course she knows time and space music! These are two terms that have been boiling in the music industry recently. For Sangsang, it's not just lively.
