Chapter 419: A sigh

In the past, the fifth-generation directors basically made literary films, and as long as such literary films won awards abroad, they would be sought after and welcomed by the audience in China. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Zhang Yimou, Gong Li and others were praised in this way, because domestic audiences had not seen commercial blockbusters at that time.

With the introduction of Hollywood blockbusters, the audience no longer endures dull literary films, and the viewing hobby has undergone a great change.

Even if the film wins awards abroad, as long as it is not good-looking, the audience will not buy it, and only a small number of literary film lovers will pursue it.

The vigorous development of domestic entertainment films has also squeezed the living space of literary films, and literary films that were once active on the domestic screen are going to a low point, and "Spring in a Small Town" just caught up with this time.

Lin Zixuan didn't shoot "Spring in a Small Town" for the box office, and he didn't care about media reports.

He met with the staff of the organizing committee of the film festival to talk about the award of "Spring in a Small Town".

This is a very normal phenomenon, and many film festivals will reveal the news of the award in advance.

For example, at the Berlin International Film Festival, if a film wins an award, the organizing committee will stuff an envelope into the director's room the night before, saying congratulations on the award.

The organizing committee of the Venice Film Festival will tell you in advance what awards you will win, and the specific awards will be announced on the spot.

Even the American Oscars, which are said to be the most secret, are not a secret to insiders.

This year's Shanghai Film Festival has seven judges from seven countries and regions, mainly Asian filmmakers.

"Spring in a Small Town" won three awards: Best Picture, Best Actress and Best Cinematography, which was the result of careful consideration by the judges, and the best picture was won together with a foreign film.

The organizing committee especially reminded that Tian Zhuangguo should not be allowed to take the stage to receive the best film, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

Lin Zixuan understood this, it doesn't matter in Venice, but in China, it's better to be a little more restrained.

That's it, Lin Zixuan returned to the hotel and called the photographer of "Spring in a Small Town" and asked him to come to Shanghai.

Yu Feihong has not left, she has become the image ambassador of the Shanghai Film Festival, she is a southerner, it is very suitable to hold this position, and she has been cooperating with the film festival to do interviews and publicity these days.

In "Latent", she is a supporting role, she doesn't have many scenes, and she doesn't need to rush back to filming.

In fact, because of the Venice film, she became a representative of southern actresses and was called the next Gong Li.

In the domestic film and television industry, there is an invisible competition between the north and the south, which does not affect the cooperation between each other, but it is inevitable to compete with each other, and the media will also add fuel to the fire.

Filmmakers in the North have always been far superior to those in the South, both directors and actors.

This is caused by historical factors, after all, the capital is the capital, and it has natural advantages.

Nowadays, with the economic development of the south, there are signs of this kind of resurgence, such as an international movie star Gong Li in the north, and now we have Yu Feihong in the south.

When actors from the south develop in the capital, there is a problem of integrating into the circle.

Why can some actors cooperate with big directors and have a smooth journey, but some actors are excluded and have no chance.

There is a capital factor behind this, and because they have not mixed into their circle, this is a potential rule in the entertainment industry, and only by understanding these rules can you live like a fish in water.

Two days later, the Shanghai International Film Festival came to an end, and Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan returned to Beijing.

Feng Xiaogang's "A Sigh" passed the censorship after revision, and the film is not a small controversy.

For example, there is only family affection between husband and wife, and love between lovers.

This point of view is not recognized by most of the members of the film censorship committee, and the relationship between family and love will be out of line if it is discussed, but fortunately, it does not affect the values of the film.

The film creates a good image of a middle-aged man who is tired between his wife and his lover, which can play a role as a wake-up call.

This was the comment of a member of the Review Committee.

Next, Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Guoli and other main creators went to Egypt to participate in the Cairo International Film Festival.

Lin Zixuan roughly calculated that this year, the cost of the Good Dream Company just to participate in the film festival was close to one million, but fortunately, it could be earned back by selling films, otherwise it would have been a big loss.

Before leaving, he invited the big guy to a meal.

"Brother Feng, I wish you a successful start and many awards. Lin Zixuan congratulated.

"Accept your auspicious words, let's talk about whether we win the award or not, we are carrying out cultural exchanges with the African people, and the African brothers have helped us a lot in international affairs over the years, and we must not forget them. Feng Xiaogang teased.

"Don't listen to Xiaogang, he was muttering about what award he wanted to win yesterday. Zhang Guoli debunked.

"I'm thinking about you, why don't you know the hearts of good people, besides, we've worked hard for more than half a year, and we should get an award to comfort ourselves. Feng Xiaogang said unhurriedly.

"Okay, who doesn't know your thoughts, don't explain it. Xu Fan teased.

Also going to Cairo this time are Xu Fan and Liu Bai, their performance in the film is good, and the two roles of wife and lover are interpreted very well.

Lin Zixuan didn't go, it was of little use for him to go.

The Cairo International Film Festival can't attract big international filmmakers, so there is no need to think about selling films, most of them are filmmakers from Asia, Africa and Latin America, and they can't sell them at a good price.

"A Sigh" can come back with an award, mainly depending on the domestic box office.

Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Guoli both have box office appeal in China, and this cooperation should attract audiences to the theater.

Even if what the audience sees is not a pure comedy story, it is not a tragedy, and the box office must not be too bad.

As the name suggests, after watching it, the audience may only let out a sigh.

After eating, Feng Xiaogang was in a good mood and drank a little too much, Xu Fan sent him back, and the relationship between the two has become clear, and friends in the circle know it.

"The two of them, I don't know what will happen in the future, Xiaogang still has a daughter. Zhang Guoli sighed.

Zhang Guoli is a divorced person, but he can understand Feng Xiaogang, he has also had this state, he married Deng Jie after divorcing his ex-wife, but he has a son with his ex-wife.

When a husband and wife divorce, children are the most difficult to arrange, and in the entertainment industry, this situation will become more and more common.

Because of this, Zhang Guoli played very well in the movie, not only rushing back and forth between his wife and lover, but also the guilt of the children in the film, which was particularly sincere.

Lin Zixuan couldn't say anything, he could only sigh. (To be continued.) )
