Chapter 113: "Xiao Wu" premiered

Guan Jinpeng and Jia Zhangke greeted each other for a while, and after the two finally agreed to attend each other's premiere, the two teams left by mistake, Jia Zhangke sighed deeply at the moment he turned around, Jia Zhangke originally planned to come to Berlin for the last time to compete for the competition, but after seeing many crews in the past two days, whether it is the cast or the post-production investment, it is countless times better than his own film, which makes him lose confidence in his heart a little, and hesitates, not knowing whether he came to Berlin this time or not.

And although Lin Yang understands Jia Zhangke's mood and knows what Jia Zhangke's achievements will be in the end, he can only sigh helplessly and comfort: "It's not the end yet, so we still have a chance." ”

Jia Zhangke just smiled at this and didn't say anything.

.........

The next day, after returning from Lin Yang's routine morning class, I saw that Jia Zhangke and Li Jieming did not go outside to look for film dealers, and I felt a little strange in my heart, could it be that I felt lost and decadent because I saw Guan Jinpeng's "The Happier the More Depraved" yesterday, but Li Jieming, the representative of the management side, shouldn't either!

Jia Zhangke just glanced at Lin Yang casually, and immediately understood what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "Because two days ago, we ran out of all the filmmakers that could be completed, so now we just need to wait for the final result." When he said the last sentence, Jia Zhangke's eyes lit up with hope, and Lin Yang knew that Jia Zhangke had not been defeated.

"So what are you two going to do in a while, you two are dressed so neatly. Lin Yang glanced at Jia Zhangke and Li Jieming, dressed neatly, and asked with a posture of going out.

"Naturally, it's a time to go to the film festival and see the films of the contestants. "Jia Zhangke lost a sanitary fairway. I don't even understand this, stupid!" "Isn't there an old saying in our country, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will win all battles." ”

"Eh, know yourself and know your opponent, you won't be defeated in a hundred battles, okay!" Lin Yang corrected helplessly.

"Cut, I'll just say win every battle. At this time, Lin Yang was sure that Jia Zhangke had really recovered, and said with a smile: "You will teach bad children like this." In this way, the two had breakfast while arguing with each other, and then they rushed to the film festival to watch the movie together.

To be honest, don't look at the first film he acted in after being reborn was a literary film, but if he was in his heart, Lin Yang really didn't like literary films at all. But why do you want to follow Jia Zhangke?

Although Lin Yang doesn't like it too much, he can't help Jia Zhangke likes it! By the way, there is also Yu Liwei, a big photographer, who also likes literary films with Jia Zhangke all the way, and they not only watch it, but also comment on it later.

The two of them are not blindly commenting, they are all reasonable, such as the meaning of a certain plot, the director wants to express his thoughts to the audience, or why this plot uses long shots instead of short shots, what are the benefits of using long shots, and what kind of experience can it bring to the audience.

Sometimes Lin Yang can roughly understand one or two, and some of them are simply listening to the clouds and mountains and fog, not knowing what they mean, for the questions they don't understand, Lin Yang happened to be a little bored and asked the two of them, what did they mean and why they said that.

And the two of them are a bit good teachers, and they know everything about Lin Yang's problems, and they have endless words!

Time spent in the process of a few people commenting on other movies, mainly Jia Zhangke and Yu Liwei, Lin Yang just slipped through the middle, on February 14, Jia Zhangke led all the people to attend the premiere of Guan Jinpeng's "The Happier the More Depraved".

Guan Jinpeng's premiere was a screening hall in the movie palace, after Jia Zhangke led the group in, Guan Jinpeng and the others were already waiting inside, and when they saw Jia Zhangke's arrival, they stood up and said a few kind words and let Jia Zhangke and others sit in a good position in the screening hall, Lin Yang and others began to wait after sitting in the position, during which Guan Jinpeng greeted several waves of people.

The entire screening hall suddenly darkened, and the icon of 'Jiahe' first appeared on the screen, and then a few small words appeared on the screen: 'Filmed by Guan Jinpeng's working group'Lin Yang raised a question at this time, could there be a line of small words 'Filmed by Jia Zhangke's film crew' in "Xiao Wu"? This question Lin Yang planned to bury in his heart, and did not rush to ask Jia Zhangke beside him, but waited until the day of Xiao Wu's premiere to explore the answer.

After that, a tour guide appeared on the screen shouting, "I'll take a group photo for you." The words are Cantonese, but the words underneath are indeed English.

.........

After nearly a hundred minutes, this film is finally over, if you let Lin Yang say how you feel after watching it, it can only be said that the beginning is very boring, and the middle is very exciting (because there are several meat scenes in the middle, Lin Yang is enthusiastic when he watches it, and when he watches this paragraph, Lin Yang feels that Qiu Shuzhen's expression is very real and he almost wonders if it is really popping. Another point is that when watching this paragraph, Lin Yang has the illusion of watching a small movie. The ending is boring.

Although Lin Yang doesn't feel good, the main reason is that Lin Yang's concept is a little different from the senses of their literary film directors, you see that after watching this film, the praise in those film critics sitting in Lin Yang seems to be like they don't want money, Jia Zhangke also stepped forward to congratulate Guan Jinpeng twice.

Guan Jinpeng received so many congratulatory words from around him, his mouth was almost like he couldn't close it, and he kept grinning and laughing, and after Jia Zhangke finished congratulating, he led Lin Yang and the others away.

After participating in the premiere of Guan Jinpeng's "The Happier the More Depraved", although Jia Zhangke's face still had the same general expression as if others owed him tens of millions of unpaid unpaid ones, Lin Yang could see from his state that Jia Zhangke's heart was very uncalm at this time.

On February 18, Xiao Wu's premiere began on time in Hall 3, Xiao Wu's screening hall is an art screening hall outside the Film Palace, far inferior to the screening hall where he participated in Guan Jinpeng's "The Happier the More Depraved" last time, but for Jia Zhangke, as long as his film can be played normally, he is already very satisfied, although it is just an inconspicuous small screening hall, although the attendance rate at this time is only more than 30%, far worse than the last time he participated in Guan Jinpeng's "The Happier the More Depraved" 80% of the attendance rate at the premiere, but it is already very good to be able to come, although some of them are film companies begged by Jia Zhangke, Li Jieming and others, otherwise it is estimated that it would be good to have 10% (including Lin Yang and others).

In this way, Jia Zhangke's official "Xiao Wu" was screened silently.
