To be honest, on this trip to Venice, everyone didn't have any hope of winning the award, after all, there were just two Chinese-language films that won the Golden Lion Award for Best Film and the Silver Lion Award for Best Director in the last session, and it is generally unlikely that the award will be awarded to a film from the same country for two consecutive years.

But now the outside world is optimistic, and film critics have praised it again and again, which can't help but make everyone have the illusion that maybe "Platform" can really win the Grand Prix, Best Director, Jury Award, or Golden Lion Award......

With so many praises, the distribution of the film is naturally not a problem, and now it is no longer a question of whether the investment of more than 10 million can be recovered, but how much money can be earned.

Lao Jia is happy, but Wang Dalun is worried. Ichiyama Naozo read the script and thought it was good, but as a well-known film company, it was unlikely that he would invest in a fledgling director's debut. Marco Müller also read the script and thought it was good, but the president of the Locarno International Film Festival in Switzerland, who spoke fluent Chinese and had a great affection for Chinese films, and the Asian filmmaker of the Venice Film Festival, declined him for almost the same reason.

Lao Jia also helped introduce several film companies, but a director who has not proven himself is difficult to be convinced, as for a good script, just kidding, a good script does not mean a good movie.

No one is optimistic about making Wang Dalun a little depressed, and it seems that he is destined to pass by "Seafood", but he quickly cleaned up his mood, because the film festival that has been noisy for ten days is finally coming to an end.

Compared with the opening ceremony, the number of stars on the red carpet of the closing ceremony is not only reduced, but also the color is much inferior. There is no way, in addition to the scheduling reasons, many big-name stars at the opening ceremony are out of the promotion of the movie, and at the closing ceremony, in addition to the crew and jury members of the competition unit, there are also some small and medium-cost new film actors who appear together. Of course, whether it is the opening and closing ceremonies, the vases endorsed by those sponsors are indispensable.

At the time of "Xiao Wu", when he was on the red carpet, no one paid attention to it at all, but this time it was very different, when the five big men appeared on the red carpet in suits, they suddenly became a spotlight, and the audience's cries and applause fully expressed their affirmation and tribute to this excellent movie.

Wang Dalun, who has walked the red carpet several times, is very experienced, and when he walked to the photography area, he quickly grabbed Lao Jia, who was a little nervous and walked quickly, to stop and take pictures. The two stood together, one tall and one short, looking witty and harmonious.

Now their popularity is already very high, and when they enter the movie palace, no matter who they know or not, they all take the initiative to come up to say hello, which makes Lao Jia very flattered, and has a sense of accomplishment as an international director.

The three major film festivals in Europe, probably the Venice Film Festival has the most numerous awards, such as the Italian Senate President's Award, the UNESCO Award, the Magic Moment Award, the Pacinetti Award, the International Catholic Film Audiovisual Association Award, and the Don Quixote Award...... There are no less than dozens of them, and of course the last few awards are the ones that attract the most attention.

Everyone is quite calm, and they didn't pay much attention to the first few consolation prizes, and some media have long predicted that this year's Golden Lion Awards is likely to be produced in the widely acclaimed American film "Before Nightfall", the Indian film "Wrestler" and the Chinese film "Platform".

But only half an hour later, a buddy with brown curly hair on the stage read according to the list: "Best Asian Film Award, "Platform"!"

Rumble!

Not only Lao Jia, Ichiyama Shangsan, Jacob, Yu Liwei and Wang Dalun were stunned, but even the audience was stunned, and then there was a lot of discussion.

Lao Jia came to the stage to accept the award in a trance, and after a very brief thank you speech, he hurriedly walked off the stage.

"Hey, it's okay. ”

"It's fine. Lao Jia shook his head with a wry smile, looked at the trophy in his hand, and sighed long, "It seems that the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment, but it doesn't matter, there are no empty hands." As he spoke, he patted Wang Dalun on the shoulder and said with a smile: "But you still have hope." ”

"How is that possible!"

He is very self-aware, especially after watching several widely acclaimed movies, he has no role in his performance in "Platform", and he has no role at all if he wants to win the actor.

Sure enough, the Best Actor award went to the actor of "Before Nightfall", Spanish quintessence actor, Javier Badem.

The best actress is Australian sweetheart Rose Byrne, and by the way, the director of the movie "Goddess 1967" starring Luo Zhuoyao is Chinese.

"Before Nightfall" also won the Grand Jury Prize, with the economist-turned-director of the Indian film "Wrestler" winning the Best Director Award.

The final award, the Golden Lion for Best Feature Film, was unexpectedly awarded to the Iranian film "The Circle of Life", which had just premiered just one day before the closing ceremony.

From the failure of the popular "Platform" to the upset of "The Circle of Life", the selection of this year's film festival has unsurprisingly caused controversy, and it is said that it has been boiling for a while. However, this turned out to be a good thing, and "Platform" maintained its popularity in Europe for a long time, and those contracts that were under negotiation and had not yet been finalized were accelerated after the festival.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Wang Dalun, and the day after the film festival closed, he stepped on the return plane.

Empty-handed, he was a little embarrassed to come back and face Zhu Wen, Zhu Wen was quite open, he wanted DV to shoot from the beginning, hundreds of thousands were enough, but he still wanted Wang Dalun to act as a policeman Deng Mou. Wang Dalun thought about it and agreed to him, and he didn't talk about money, on the one hand, he was helping his friends, and on the other hand, he really missed this Deng.

In any case, "Platform" won an award at the Venice Film Festival, and although it was not an award, it was also the best Asian film! Not to mention that the Venice Film Festival, which has always been associated with Chinese films, was only shortlisted for this year's film. Television and print media, that is, the new media that have just emerged -- portal websites -- are always slow and half-beats above have not yet been formally promulgated, and they can still play a game of rubbing the edges, report a few sentences, and post a few photos of the red carpet. Wang Dalun finally didn't participate in the film festival this time and came back with nothing like before, and he even made some popularity, and it actually caused a lot of sensation.

With the broadcast of hit dramas such as "Carry on Love to the End", "Never Look Away", "April Day in the World", "The True Colors of the Criminal Police", the audience has begun to be familiar with his face, although he does not have many roles in TV series, but it can always be impressive. For example, in "Never Look Away", in addition to the three leading actors Lu Yi, Su Jin and Yuan Li, the most talked about role by the audience is Jianjun. This thug is not like the fierce face in the previous TV series, only occasionally showing a ruthless gaze that makes people's hearts palpitate, but at the same time, his uncomplaining and unrepentant love for Ouyang Lanlan has touched many people, although there are only dozens of scenes, it is enough to impress.

Online media are sensitive, and they have launched some profiles of Jia Zhangke and Wang Dalun in due course according to the number of clicks. Chinese audiences obviously pay more attention to actors than to directors, especially Wang Dalun, who is often familiar on TV. The audience doesn't know if they don't see it, they are really shocked when they see it, the male lead in the best Asian film "Platform" at the Venice Film Festival, the male lead in "Xiao Wu", the male lead in "Xiao Wu", the best director and best cinematography at the Matabrata International Film Festival in Argentina, it turns out that this guy is a movie café!

The day after returning from Italy, the company also held a small celebration banquet for him, which made him a little embarrassed.

"Hey, are you tired of filming?"

The TV is on, in silent mode, Wang Dalun is holding a cigarette in one hand and a cordless phone in the other, and is talking on the phone with his girlfriend who is filming in Wuxi.

During this time, the autumn is crisp and cool, and it is the best season of the year. Sometimes he really admires his girlfriend's professionalism, filming all year round, that is, he took a break for about a month and a half after filming "One Less Pack" at the beginning of this year, in addition, this year until the Spring Festival next year, the schedule has almost been filmed.

"It's okay, there aren't many plays today, just two. I also went around the city. ”

Compared with Ling Chuchu, who played a strong martial arts player in the first part, the little dragonfly in the second part is completely a funny image, Fan Ziyi plays it very easily, and there is no need to shoot scenes and tie up Weiya.

"I heard that the sauce pork ribs there are good, have you tasted them?"

"I've eaten it a long time ago, it's all sweet, and it's not delicious at all. Hey, what are you doing today?"

"I didn't do anything, I just swam in the morning and cleaned up at home in the afternoon. ”

Report to your girlfriend every day about the day's itinerary, that's a must. He took a puff of his cigarette, and then said: "When are you on vacation, or I will come to see you in two days, and it will be cold in front of you, so I will help you bring a few clothes by the way." ”

"No need, I received a call from Sister Hua in the afternoon, she helped me contact an advertisement, I will come back next week to shoot an advertisement, just two more days off, anyway, I don't have many scenes, the director will definitely agree. Fan Ziyi said.

"That's the best, you can save some money for air tickets and hotel stays, when will you come back? I'll pick you up then, oh, what else do you want to eat......"

Balabala chatted with his girlfriend for more than an hour, and kissed twice in the air before reluctantly hanging up the phone. Both of them are actors, and they are often no different from separating from each other, and there are really not many days together throughout the year, so it's no wonder that the divorce rate in this circle has been high, of course, in addition to this, the temptation in this circle is too great, and it is also a factor.
