"The Tale of Two Donkeys" is very unChinese!

Foreigners like Chinese movies, also known as imaginary Chineseist movies, they think that China should be full of bicycles on the streets, there are no high-rise buildings, and the people are as crooked as bargaining in the vegetable market every day, ignorant and backward.

Therefore, they like to watch "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", like to watch "No One is Missing", and like to watch movies like "Farewell My Concubine".

Because these movies are in line with the image of China in their heads.

In the 90s of the last century, the Chinese films that appeared in the film festival were like this, and after the sixth generation appeared at the film festival, it brought them a more 'real' China, poor, backward, negative...

It satisfies the imagination of foreign adults in China!

Lu Xiaoran hates this kind of filmmaker very much, and she doesn't like so-called independent films...

The biggest problem with independent films is that they are obviously just the aesthetics of small intellectuals, and they have to think that the public has to accept it!

is like Li Dan's sentence in "Wonderful Sayings": Some intellectuals always want to sacrifice others and save what they think is valuable, so that our world is frequently caught in flames...

I guess they think they're great!

Wang Xiaoshuai said: "You have already lost a Zhang Yimou, do you want to lose another Wang Xiaoshuai?"

Big brother, you're really overestimating yourself...

To put it this way, Cheng Xin also feels that she is doing the right thing - she is a virgin!

Back to "The Tale of Two Donkeys", this movie, except for a sporadic introduction to the background of the times, mostly revolves around the black donkey and Ma Jie, if you discuss it superficially, it is the revenge of the black donkey...

The story of animal revenge, which Westerners especially love!

Rudyard Kipling's "The Jungle Book" even won the Nobel Prize for Literature - the original book of "The Fantastic Forest";

"Willow Wind" and "The Story of the Mole" are very popular animal themes...

The only thing they are dissatisfied with is probably that the black donkey's revenge has failed!

Not in line with their imagination of the triumph of good over evil...

……

The Berlinale doesn't get a lot of attention.

Especially this year, there are no works of the director, there are only two works, one is called "Apple", and the other is "Tuya's Marriage" that came out of nowhere I don't know where it came from, so when mainland reporters arrived in Berlin, they could only arrest Tong Dawei and Fan Xiaoye...

The questions were 'Do you have the confidence to win!' or 'How does it feel to come to Berlin?'

The press releases sent to the mainland are all like this: "Tong Dawei and Fan Bingbing gathered in Berlin, the golden boy and the girl looked at each other affectionately", "Tong Dawei revealed that he joined "Red Cliff", Wu Yusen tailored the role for him", "The opening of the 57th Berlin Film Festival, Fan Bingbing took his mother to win the golden bear"...

Didn't have to write...

Just these two stars.

Fortunately, "The Tale of Two Donkeys" has made a name!

It's really ringing, and it sold the copyrights of more than 20 countries that night, making a lot of money!

A reporter found Lu Xiaoran and wanted to interview him, but Lu Xiaoran was very sincere and basically answered everything.

"This movie was made to me at the beginning of last year and shot in July. ”

"My teacher recommended me to audition..."

"I didn't have any ideas, but I thought the script was pretty good, and the director was very sincere, so I took it. ”

"How did you get to Berlin?"

"Among the producers of our drama is Mr. Wang Qingqiang, who is the Asian film selector at the Berlin Film Festival. The main purpose is to sell the film, after all, it took millions to shoot..."

"It's hard to say, I haven't seen this type of movie appear in the mainland market..."

"If it's released, it's not a big problem, we have already got the dragon mark!"

"There's a shortage of publishers right now... The investor is a nutrition company, and has never done distribution..."

“... I can't tell who can take the Golden Bear, and that's not something I should be thinking about!"

Just chatted a few words, the reporter's name is Chen Haojun, and he works for Sohu News...

It is estimated that this news will be sent to the editor-in-chief, and the editor-in-chief may not necessarily give the layout - "The Tale of Two Donkeys"?

……

15th, Closing Ceremony.

"A Tale of Two Donkeys" actually received an invitation - this also means that the film won the award!

Sugar Candy is nervous...

It's the first time she's stepped on the red carpet in Berlin - Chengtian treats her well, and she went to the Busan Film Festival last year.

"Do you want to wave later?"

"Do you think I'm smiling so well?"

“... How fast are we going to go?"

Looking at the sugar candy with a black dress, black high heels, and a pure and elegant temperament, Lu Xiaoran sighed: "You think too much, who knows us? On the red carpet, hurry up and leave, don't delay the people behind!"

“... Don't you have a domestic journalist?"

"Domestic reporters don't know the two of us!"

"Don't say that, Xie Xiaomeng is still very well-known!"

“... Hehe. ”

Lu Xiaoran hehe...

Comedians, even Huang Bo, are not as good as Zheng Xiaosheng in their ability to attract fans!

- This is the age of face-seeking!

It's been more than half a year since "Stone", and Lu Xiaoran's Xie Xiaomeng is long gone...

After all, the box office of "Stone" is 30 million instead of 300 million!

The truth is similar to what he said, there are few people filming the crew of "Two Donkeys" - behind them are the crew of "Secret Service", Angelina Jolie, Matt is walking around cutely...

Flashing lights from various angles, shocking cheers from fans - unfortunately, all this has nothing to do with "Two Donkeys"...

Six tickets, all six people entered the closing hall and waited quietly for the results.

……

At ten o'clock in the morning of the 17th, a group of people from "The Story of Two Donkeys" gathered at Tegel Airport, ready to leave for China.

Wang Qingqiang stayed in the local area.

He may have to fly to the United States with the film company to talk about copyright sales...

"A Tale of Two Donkeys" won three awards, namely the Crystal Bear Award for Best Feature Film (Children's Choice Award), the Teddy Audience Award - to disappoint you, there is no Best Actor Award at the Teddy Bear Award, and the Catholic Humanitarian Spirit Award, Forum Unit Award.

The prize money alone is close to 200,000 euros!

The three awards directly made "The Tale of Two Donkeys" hot, anyway, the copyrights of more than 40 countries were sold in one night - don't look at the number of countries, many will give 10,000 US dollars, such as Chile, Peru, Uruguay...

The bulk is still the United States, and they want to buy out the copyright for $100,000, but Wang Qingqiang feels that the price is too low.

“... I'm going to go to Zhongying and see if they will take over the distribution!"

"I think you should persuade Boss Ming, let's make money, maybe he has a hot brain and really spends money on publicity?"

Li Dawei smiled: "... Unlikely, his nutrition doesn't sell, and last year's performance was terrible!"

"Can't sell? Why?"

"It's not good to sell nutrition now..."

“…”

Isn't Brain Platinum all kinds of advertising?

"Xiao Lu, you have to be prepared that the movie can't be released on a large scale!"
