Chapter 316: Berlin Actor
When he left the interview, Shao Yingying didn't remember how many words he said for the motherland, even if he didn't think so in his heart, he admitted that his country did have shortcomings, and it was not impossible to blame people, but when he went abroad to criticize some things in China as a Chinese person, would it be a bit excessive?
Shao Yingying left, if Lao Mouzi didn't say these words in advance in China, Shao Yingying would definitely not intervene, anyway, this is a family matter, and family affairs are for people to discuss, but in Berlin, especially in the interview with "Hollywood Reporter", it is impossible for him not to respond to a word.
After this interview, The Hollywood Reporter quickly reported the remarks of the two, and from this point on, Shao Yingying also had to appear frequently in film festivals.
Almost everywhere he appeared, there must have been media asking questions about the Huaxia film system and the planning of the film industry, all kinds of unreasonableness in the Huaxia film industry were lifted to the paper by all media people in an instant, Shao Yingying almost at this time as a mouth exclusive to Huaxia, everywhere to excuse the relevant departments such as radio and television, film bureau, Zhongying, Huaxia and so on.
"I admit that Huaxia may not be mature in the film industry, at least not to the extent of Hollywood, but what I want to say is that Hollywood is not built in a day, please give us time."
"No system in this world is perfect, right? Why do you treat this matter as a huge problem after you stop complaining about a Chinese filmmaker? β
"What? There have been many Chinese directors who have said that there are problems about the Chinese film system when they come to the exhibition with their works? Jia Zhangke? No, I don't know him. Mr. Journalist. Do you know how many directors in Huaxia have works and are filming film and television dramas? I'm telling you, the number of people you and I mentioned is less than one percent of the proportion, that is. Only this one percent has complaints, and I don't think it's unacceptable that it exists in all walks of life. β
Exhausted.
Shao Yingxing is about to let Zhang Yimou poke out the basket to death, fortunately, Lao Mouzi disappeared from Berlin since the interview was reported, otherwise, that messy mouth may make Shao Yingxing busy.
The exhausted Shao Yingying was busy at the film festival for several days on end, when many positive news about his visit and about the Chinese film industry were reported. Shao Yingying had time to rest, and at this time, there was news from China. Zhang Yimou was suspended for one year.
This is a call from Wang Jinghua, it is said that there is no follow-up to this matter, and the heart picture has been patronized and dredged these days, and as a result, a lot of nails have been touched in a row.
Should.
Shao Yingying viciously spat out the word on the phone.
Zhang Yimou's behavior is certainly undesirable. Even if you have any thoughts about the system and regulations of the Chinese film and television drama industry, you shouldn't say it at this time.
Shao Yingying knows how high the status of future artists is. When there are important national conferences, there are a large number of artists present, but what did those artists say at the meeting? Have you ever spoken all the words that were once buried in your heart and listened to heaven?
No!
As we all know, many officials at the meeting are chasing these famous directors and big names to take a group photo, and the big names at the meeting seem to have become bodhisattvas who save the suffering and save the people, paying attention to the national economy and people's livelihood, and paying attention to the people's ideological height, but no one has opened their mouths about the problems in the system and the restrictions of the relevant departments on film and television dramas, and no one has stood up and said that the subject matter that is regarded as a flood beast by the relevant departments has been put there thousands of years ago.
Shao Yingying is waiting for this day to come. Now he has made enough money and is well-known. I don't want to win awards as much as I used to, and it's time to stand up and say something.
As long as he is allowed to walk into that occasion, Shao Yingying will definitely tell all the things that many people want to say but dare not say, and would rather scold the street behind his back than tell others that he also has concerns in this regard.
At present, Shao Yingying can only wait, because this day is still a long time away.
In this way, nine days have passed since the Berlinale had ten days of film festivals, and the tenth day, that is, the awards and closing ceremonies, has finally arrived in anticipation.
That night, when Shao Yingying walked on the red carpet wearing a suit alone, the reporters asked about the domestic film system in China.
When walking on the red carpet, Shao Yingying sat down at a foreign film festival for the first time, and the organizers arranged for him to be surrounded by no one he was familiar with, sitting on his left was Hollywood star Keanu Reeves, and on his right was a bearded man he didn't know at all.
In such an environment, Shao Yingying started another round of impact on the award in a completely unfamiliar country.
It's just that Shao Yingying seemed a little absent-minded this time, holding his mobile phone in his hand and constantly replying to people who sent text messages to amuse people at such a critical moment.
"Dude, you are out of the country, and you have the box office, if you don't come back with an award abroad, it will be unsatisfactory. Don't think about it so much, those foreign goods must be muddy, waiting for you to come back with a bear. βWang Shuo.
"Xiao Shao, I'm breaking the law for you, do you know how many capable people I found to serve the computer in order to get this over the wall, now Liu Zhenyun, me, Uncle Ge and this group of people are playing cards and drinking while shouting and cheering for you, don't be ashamed, even if you lose someone, don't let people see it, take the bear back and I'll treat you." - Feng Xiaogang.
"Take it easy, it doesn't matter if you can win or not, the important thing is that you go, poke that, it's the man." - Sun Honglei.
"For you, the people under the company have opened the market, if it weren't for the gambling just a meal, I almost called the police, Boss Shao, you have to stand up and get through at a critical time." - Zhang Wan.
The music of the awards ceremony has sounded, but Shao Yingying's mind is all on the mobile phone, when everyone looks up at the host on the stage, Shao Yingying is looking down at the mobile phone, when the first award is presented and everyone is cheering, Shao Yingying is still looking at the mobile phone, in his mobile phone mailbox, there are new text messages arriving almost every minute. It's not that this group of people is afraid of wasting phone bills by making international calls, but that this group of people is afraid that after making a phone call, the shot of Shao Yingying answering the phone appears in the camera, which is too ugly.
"Look up, look up, what are you doing with your head down at the awards ceremony." - Fan Yuyi.
"Hehe, that's stupid." -- Weekly News.
When these two text messages were sent, Shao Yingying realized that his posture seemed to be a little unpleasant, and changed his posture slightly, just in time to see a camera aimed at him, as if it was a gun that was about to pull the trigger.
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and Shao Yingying smiled at the camera.
"The child is asleep, the house is fine, and besides, don't giggle at the camera." - Gao Yuanyuan.
When a text message arrived, Shao Yingying finally saw the name that had accompanied her for so many years, and this was the first time she had paid attention to her after not giving herself any text messages at the award ceremony for a long time.
At this time, the Children's Jury Special Commendation Award was given to the island country's "Pretend to Hear", the Best Short Film Special Honor Award was given to "LICURI-SURF", the Silver Bear Award for Best Short Film or the Island Country's "Yellow Rabbit" just opened three awards, two of which were taken away by the island country, it seems that after Huaxia became a candidate country that was concerned by more mainstream media, it seems that Huaxia films have become no niche and have lost the favor of the Berlin Film Festival.
Shao Yingying waited silently, and when the Golden Bear Award for Best Short Film, the Alfred Award, the Special Award for Best Debut Film, and the Best Debut Award were moved out, Shao Yingying, who was almost sleepy, finally heard a name that made him feel a little sober: "Silver Bear Award for Best Cinematography, "White Deer Plain", Lutz-Witmeyer!" β
"White Deer Plain" won the award?
Shao Yingying was quite excited when he heard the name, but when he saw that it was a foreign photographer who came out, he suddenly withered again, these days in contact with the crew of "White Deer Plain", he knew that Wang Quanan used a German photographer, what is so strange about the German photographer winning the award at the Berlin Film Festival, except for the name of "White Deer Plain", this matter has little to do with Huaxia.
How did he know that the trip to Berlin of "White Deer Plain" had come to an end, except for the German photographer to win a photography award, "White Deer Plain" failed miserably all the way and returned home!
The winner of the Best Screenplay Award let "The Royal Romance" take away, the Best Director Award let "Barbara" take away, and the jury Silver Bear Trophy "Wind and Sorrow" took away, until this second, Shao Yingying did not continue to hear the name of "White Deer Plain", especially at the moment of the award, and Wang Quanan and others were full of nervousness in every project shortlisted.
Shao Yingying understood the truth that the big head was behind, and when an actress walked up to the stage to receive the Silver Bear Award for Best Actress, Shao Yingying knew that the time had come to divide the winners and losers.
This is his moment, if an actor can't stand up and create something at the most critical moment, then history must have nothing to do with him, even if the history of the entertainment industry will not be remembered for too long, and even no one in the entertainment industry today remembers the fact that Ge You once won the Cannes Best Actor.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the most critical moment has finally come, please allow me to introduce to you in my own way a filmmaker who has long been known to you, but has not won any awards in Europe or the United States so far, he used his own performance to reproduce all the states of a father after the loss of his child, and he used his incisive performance to make the premiere of this film in Berlin, which made many viewers cry at the scene, I must say, I also cried."
