The conversation with Mr. Xie Fei was very pleasant, saying that he was an old man, that was to respect his contribution to Chinese films, if you really count his age, the old man is only fifty-eight years old this year, which can barely be regarded as worthy of this title, but his status and prestige in the industry deserve any honorific title.

He is the fourth generation of directors, in terms of achievements, he can be said to be the first person among the fourth generation of directors, his creative methods have influenced a generation of filmmakers, and the old man is indifferent to fame and fortune, he chose to teach and educate people after the peak of creation, and he is still making contributions to Chinese films, which is worthy of Zhou Bai's respect and admiration.

On the 16th, the opening of the film festival, this film festival is different from other editions, although the stars are glittering, but the stars are not the only protagonists, and the whole opening ceremony looks more like a grand event of film and cultural singing.

On this night, the bronze drum platform trombone reed sheng of Qingxiu Mountain in Nanning sounded movingly, the copper drum shook the sky, the guests were welcomed into the village gate by the Zhuang family with the most solemn ceremony, blocking the road, persuading the drinking song one after another, the stars and the masses of all nationalities held hands over the fire chain, dancing.

That's right, this film festival combines the Golden Rooster Award with national culture, and the scene is grand, but the kind of embarrassing meaning can't be left behind, I don't know if this is a folk event or a film festival, anyway, Zhou Bai has a feeling of crying and laughing in it.

To be reasonable, the culture of the Zhuang family is very interesting, there is a unique style, if it is a sacrifice and other activities will make people feel very appropriate, but it should be combined with the film festival, such a blunt combination makes people feel nondescript, if the Zhuang family cultural festival is specially held, it is much better than combining the Golden Rooster Award with national culture.

Maybe the local government wants to promote the culture of the Zhuang family, after all, they are the organizers who spend a lot of money to hold the film festival, and they always have to let people see some benefits, Zhou Bai can also understand this kind of thinking, I heard that the budget of this year's film festival is as much as 30 million, and such a budget is also a big budget in the past.

Anyway, the embarrassing folk activities of the opening ceremony are not speechless, as early as when the list of nominees for the Golden Rooster Awards came out, they were criticized by the major media, they said that this year's Golden Rooster Awards was too "main theme", and among the six nominated feature films, Xie Fei's old man's "Yixi Zhuoma" has not been released, "My 1919", "Born Out of Thin Air", and "Beautiful Mother" are all films that are not very good at the box office, and they are all main theme movies.

Zhou Bai has no opinion on this point, this is a film festival hosted by the local government, the official power can be said to be a masterpiece in it, the Golden Rooster Award is just adhering to the tradition that has always been carried forward and carrying forward the "main theme", you can't nominate those banned films, the only regret is that Feng Dacang is still not welcomed, this is a successful film released in China, and it is a bit too much to say that only a nomination for Best Supporting Actress is given.

Fortunately, before the Golden Rooster Award, there was already a Hundred Flowers Award that was overwhelmingly criticized by the media, otherwise this time it would be really uncomfortable for the judges of the Golden Rooster Award, after Pan Changjiang won the Hundred Flowers Award, the media has gone crazy, and all kinds of doubts have come out, and it can't change the fact that people are actors.

Is it sad for a sketch actor to win a film award? Has the Hundred Flowers Award become an "audience favorite award"? Does the Hundred Flowers Award still have a mass and authoritative character? Does the Hundred Flowers Award need to be reformed? After the announcement of the Hundred Flowers Award list, these questions simply came like a tide, and many film actors were interviewed about these questions and insisted on being evaluated.

Gu Changwei's daughter-in-law Fei Wenli was caught by the reporter, and she couldn't resist the reporter's enthusiasm, Fei Wenli had to say: "I have never heard of Pan Changjiang's movie, so I can't talk about watching it." I don't know how he performed in the movie, so naturally I can't comment on it. Good guy, simply say that I haven't seen it, refuse to evaluate, this hand Tai Chi is absolutely perfect.

In fact, the media has nothing to do, the Hundred Flowers Award has long become a copy of the award, and the Golden Rooster Award still has to be a little disciplined, although it adheres to the "main theme", but at least the quality of the movie is guaranteed, and the Hundred Flowers Award is too easy to operate, so many people are looking at the Hundred Flowers Award and waiting to brush this copy.

"Xiao Ming, how long have we not seen each other, it's been almost a year, right?What have you been busy with this year?" Zhou Bai was pleasantly surprised when he saw Huang Xiaoming, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Brother Bai, after I finished filming your "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss", I ran to shoot a TV series, went to shoot a TV series called "Invincible County Order", and recently I was busy filming another TV series, called "The Son of Heaven" Huang Xiaoming said happily after hugging Zhou Bai.

"Okay, you are playing the male number one in "The Son of Heaven", right? As soon as you said it, I remembered, isn't this the TV series that Mr. Chen participated in, it seems that you are playing Liu Che. Zhou Bai's eyes lit up, and he remembered when he heard Huang Xiaoming say this.

"Yes, I play the male number one Liu Che, the male number two is Teacher Chen Daoming, I learned a lot from him, Teacher Chen's acting skills are very good, if it weren't for the age match, I think he is particularly suitable for playing the role of Liu Che. Huang Xiaoming said a little embarrassed.

"Hey, Mr. Chen is a senior, experienced, and it is normal to have good acting skills, it is good to learn more from this kind of old-timer, I envy you for cooperating with Mr. Chen, but unfortunately I have never had the opportunity to cooperate with him, I also admire his acting skills very much, he acted too well in "My 1919", and it is very likely to win the actor this time. Zhou Bai is envious of Huang Xiaoming's luck, Chen Daoming is definitely a powerful actor, and his acting skills are well-known.

"I also think so, this time to participate in the Golden Rooster Awards, I have seen him once, if he wins the award this time, then I haven't cooperated with the two Golden Rooster actors? It seems that I also have a chance to win the Golden Rooster Award, and I have a great chance to learn from you. Huang Xiaoming laughed, if Chen Daoming won the Golden Rooster Actor this time, then he could be regarded as having cooperated with the two Golden Rooster Actors.

"Haha, as long as you strictly choose the script and hone it more, it may not be impossible to get the golden rooster, I never thought that I could win the golden rooster, your talent is no worse than mine, who dares to say that you don't have a chance?" Zhou Bai said in agreement, the main sect leader can be strict in selecting scripts, find some different roles to hone, don't always use the skill of "domineering president's smile", when he encounters a suitable script, he may not have no chance.

"Accept your good words, by the way, when will "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss" be released? I waited until my neck was long, and it has been almost a year since it was filmed. Huang Xiaoming became happy, and then asked.

"This movie is not necessarily when it will be released, but I want to sign up for the Rotterdam International Film Festival, and the Berlin International Film Festival, this is a small-budget film, and there is basically no hope for China to recover its costs, at most it is sold to movie channels, unless it can win awards or sell money for overseas distribution, it will be difficult to return the cost. Zhou Bai shook his head and sighed.
