Chapter 238: Steadfast
In mid-September, Jingcheng International Airport. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
As soon as Lin Zixuan and Jiang Wen left the airport passage, they saw several reporters surrounding them, and he stopped and fell behind.
At this time, Jiang Wen is the protagonist.
Although "Sunny Days" only won one Best Actor, Xia Yu became the youngest actor in Venice.
The domestic media was particularly interested in this record-breaking thing, and as soon as the news reached China, a reporter went to Qingdao to interview Xia Yu, who was going to school.
Xia Yu is relatively ignorant of this award, and he doesn't quite understand the importance of Venice actor to him.
Think about it, Ge You ran for ten years to win a Cannes actor, and he won the Venice actor in his first movie.
It is very difficult for Chinese actors to win the best actor in the three major European film festivals, which is basically the home of Europeans, but in this year, there were two actors.
Ge You's actor was banned because of "Alive", and there was no way to publicize it, Xia Yu was fine, which made the media very excited.
However, Xia Yu is still just a student, but there is not much content in the interview, so the media focused on the director of the film, Jiang Wen, and inquired about the story of the film.
This is Jiang Wen's first time directing a movie, and during the filming, there was a crew strike, and the filming was stopped many times because of lack of funds, and he was not favored in the circle, and even thought that the film could not be completed at all.
It was under such harsh conditions that the film was finished, and he also participated in the film festival and got back the youngest actor.
It sounds like an inspirational saga, and journalists will have plenty of material to write about.
It was not only reporters who came to pick up the airport, but Xia Yu and some actors also came to the airport and sent flowers.
Jiang Wen was familiar with this kind of scene, he took out the trophy of the Venice actor from his suitcase, and held it high with Xia Yu, allowing the reporters to take pictures as much as they wanted.
After satisfying the reporter's request, they left the airport and left in a car.
"How does it feel to come home with honor?" Lin Zixuan quipped.
"It's okay, it's not as good as I imagined, there will definitely be various interviews next, let's invite the crew to have a meal tomorrow night, it's a celebration banquet, I'm afraid it's not idle for a while." Jiang Wen responded, "Let's talk about the film company later." ”
"Let's wait for the funds to come over, and don't rush it. Lin Zixuan persuaded.
In the ninety-fourth year, there were more and more private film and television companies in Beijing, and sometimes a few people would register a company together, find funds and start making film and television dramas, which was extremely blind and chaotic.
Jiang Wen plans to open a film production company, mainly to serve him personally, which is equivalent to a personal studio.
In fact, there is no personal studio in China, a big director like Zhang Yimou does not belong to any film company, he is extremely free, he usually has a lot of things, and there will be a group of people under him to help him deal with various affairs.
Some people write scripts, some people are responsible for watching locations, some people contact foreign investors, and so on.
Some of these people are fixed, some are temporary, and they follow Zhang Yimou to eat.
Jiang Wen wanted to get such a company, find a group of acquaintances to form his own team, and someone would help, so that making movies in the future would not be so chaotic and busy.
This success gave him great confidence, "Sunny Days" sold well, and when he had the funds, he wanted to be the master of his own house, grasp the initiative, and make the film he wanted to make.
In terms of making movies, Jiang Wen is a person with a strong desire to control.
He wants to build his own team according to the model of Good Dream Company, which is something he wants to discuss with Lin Zixuan.
Lin Zixuan said goodbye to Jiang Wen and returned home.
The film academy opened, Lin Xiaoling moved to school, Mu Shanshan was at work, there was no one at home, and the courtyard was a little empty.
He called Mu Shanshan first and told her that he was back and reassured her.
Then he sorted out his luggage, made a cup of tea, sat on the sofa to rest, and looked through a few newspapers ordered at home to see what news was in China recently.
This year marks the 45th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the Fourth Plenary Session of the 14th CPC Central Committee will be held.
This was a very important meeting, and it was a meeting in which the second generation of the Chinese leadership collective turned into a third-generation leadership collective.
Lin Zixuan saw Zhang Yimou's evaluation of "Sunny Days" in the entertainment version.
At this time, Zhang Yimou was filming a new film in Shanghai, which was not the result of an interview with reporters, but news from the crew.
The day before yesterday, Zhang Yimou and a group of people in the crew went out for supper at one o'clock in the middle of the night, staying up late to film is very normal for the crew, and the work and rest of the movie crew are not very regular.
The domestic film industry already knows the news of the award of "Sunny Days", and everyone will inevitably talk about it.
"I love this film, first of all, it's very passionate. Zhang Yimou commented.
"I don't like it. Wang Bin, the literary planner next to him, said.
This Wang Bin is the person who had a big difference of opinion with Lin Zixuan when he was preparing for the filming of "Alive".
The so-called literary planner is not a screenwriter, but a person who helps to deeply process the language and artistry of the script.
Wang Bin turned out to be a writer, but he didn't make a name for himself in the writer's circle, so he found an opportunity to enter the film industry and follow Zhang Yi to make a living.
"It's really good, Jiang Wen knows how to play very well, and in the handling of some shots, many old directors are often difficult to control. Zhang Yimou continued, "Another point, this film is very personal, passion and personality are very important. ”
Lin Zixuan read Zhang Yimou's evaluation, and knew that they were all thinking about making art films.
Feng Xiaogang will not pursue passion and individuality, what he pursues is the market and the satisfaction of the audience.
Most of the newspapers praised Jiang Wen and Xia Yu, and even the heroine Ning Jing became popular, but people in the real film industry watched behind the scenes.
Some people say that Zhang Yimou made Ge You popular, and Jiang Wen pushed Xia Yu to the throne of the Venice Film Festival actor, but a closer look will find that "Alive" and "Sunny Days" have one thing in common.
That is, Lin Zixuan's participation.
It is these two films that have produced two European film festival actors, which have not been done before, and I am afraid it will be difficult to reproduce them in the future.
Seeing that it was almost time to get off work, Lin Zixuan got up and went to the kitchen to start cooking.
When Mu Shanshan came back from work, she heard the noise in the kitchen, so she leaned against the door and watched Lin Zixuan busy with his work, the two of them hadn't seen each other for seven or eight days, but they didn't miss it much.
These days, she lives alone in the huge yard, and she always feels empty and unstable.
She wanted to call her mother over to live with her, but she felt a little ridiculous, but now she was okay and her heart was steady. (To be continued.) )
