"Berlin!"

Zhang Yimou clenched his fists, looking at the blue sea in the distance, and his originally gloomy eyes brightened again.

Looking at Zhang Yimou, who seemed to be beating chicken blood, Li Yange smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and he could understand his mood at this time, when he went to the United States to participate in the Oscars in March, although there were memories of his previous life, the butterfly effect still existed.

With Dou Dawei becoming the lead singer of the Baojia Street Band, there is a precedent for the Black Panther to not even have a ghost shadow now, and Li Yange does not dare to guarantee 100% that "The Last Emperor" can still win the "Best Composition Award" as originally done!

At that time, when the award was announced, Li Yange's face looked very flat, and he didn't seem to care very much, but he was nervous in his heart.

So after hearing that Zhang Yimou didn't win the award, Li Yange offered to sponsor him to go to Berlin, he hadn't heard that "Red Sorghum" would come to Cannes to compete, and the ghost knows if it was because of the butterfly effect after his appearance, if Zhang Yimou missed Berlin.

Don't look at the award, it seems to be Zhang Yimou's personal business, but as the first film in China to win the main awards of the three major film festivals, once it does not develop as originally did, the changes in the historical process will be huge.

Not to mention far away, let's just say that Zhang Yimou did not win the Golden Bear Award in Berlin, and the impact was not only personal, but also many, many people. After all, Zhang Yimou is not an ordinary person, and the butterfly effect that changes because of him will be large-scale, not limited to a small part like Cheng Shaojun.

The two chatted for a few words, and Cheng Shaojun over there saw that he had been chatting, so he ran over and dragged Li Yange over to play beach volleyball, Gong Li was not to be outdone and called Zhang Yimou, two men and two women were divided into two teams, Liang Leshu acted as the referee, and the four of them began to play in style.

Since the Chinese women's volleyball team achieved a historic five consecutive championships in 86, volleyball has quietly risen in China, and the spirit of women's volleyball has begun to be passed on by word of mouth.

It also makes more and more people like volleyball, which is the same as Yao Ming's later entry into the NBA, which led to the domestic basketball career, after all, no matter what sport it is, it is to keep up with the trend, just like why there are more people playing basketball than playing football in China?

Just look at the men's football team that "never shoots", except for entering a World Cup in 2002, the results after that can be described as miserable.

"No more! No more! After all, Zhang Yimou is almost forty years old, both mentally and physically, far inferior to Li Yange, Cheng Shaojun and Gong Li, after playing for less than half an hour, he began to pant and cry out uncontrollably.

Gong Li, who was having fun, couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Zhang Yimou say that she wouldn't play, and said angrily: "Let you exercise more on weekdays, and drop the chain when it comes to a critical time." ”

Cheng Shaojun didn't know what to do, and when he saw that Zhang Yimou said that he wouldn't play, he didn't care, picked up the volleyball on the beach, and prepared to rest.

However, Li Yange, who was on the side, heard the ambiguous words of the two, looked at the two of them with a strange expression, and turned around and left silently.

"Who, who said it. I'm just tired. Zhang Yimou's old face flushed, and after a word of justification, he turned around and walked to the beach chair, fortunately, his skin was dark enough, and he couldn't see it when it was red, just because it was sunburned.

A few people took a break, seeing that the time was almost up, Liang Leshu proposed to invite everyone to have a meal together, it is rare to see people from China in Cannes, or a well-known director, Liang Leshu wants to make a good relationship, if there is a chance in the future, give several of his singers a chance to appear on the movie stage.

If Li Yange knew Liang Leshu's careful thoughts, I am afraid that he would not be able to help laughing out loud, except for the movies made by Zhang Yimou after 2000, and the dozen or so films before this are all more realistic films with local themes.

If you let the Baojia Street Band and Cui Jian, rock singers like them, show their faces in these movies, it is better to go to the edge of Beijing Film Studio to be extras.

……

……

May 29.

At the Cannes Film Festival Awards Ceremony.

After walking through the long red carpet, Li Yange quickly found his table in the hall, and when he walked over, he heard someone shouting next to him: "Li Yange!" ”

He looked sideways and saw Chen Kaige waving to him with excitement on his face.

"Director Chen, are you sitting at this table?" Li Yange walked over and said with a smile.

There are really a lot of people from the crew of "The Child King", including the starring Xie Yuan, the assistant director Qiang Xiaolu, the producer Mao Yuwen, and the leader of the fourth generation of directors, Wu Tianming, who is also the guide of the fifth generation of directors Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou.

"Well, Yan Ge, let me introduce you, this is Wu Tianming and Director Wu of the West Film Studio!" Chen Kaige hurriedly introduced Wu Tianming behind him.

"Director Wu has been looking up for a long time, I have seen your recent "Old Well", and the shooting is really good!" When Li Yange heard that it was Wu Tianming, he looked up and saw that it was indeed him, and he hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand respectfully.

The

Wu Tianming looks very simple, more like a farmer than Zhang Yimou, but because he has a bald head and looks a little domineering, he is still very easy-going and can afford to joke, so after learning Li Yange's identity, he laughed and said: "Li Yange! I've heard of your name for a long time, yes, yes, young people are very powerful now, and they won the American Oscar award, which has raised the face of our country. ”

Many people know Wu Tianming, perhaps because of the "Hundred Birds and Phoenix", but in fact, Wu Tianming's influence in the seventies and eighties is very huge, he is not only a successful director, but also a successful teacher, Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige are learning behind him, and it can be said that they are the enlighteners of the fifth generation of directors.

So when facing this old-timer, Li Yange admired it and said very humbly: "Director Wu has won the award, and I still have a lot to learn." ”

Wu Tianming smiled honestly: "Learning is to learn, but young people should not be too modest, they must be energetic, I have listened to your album, it is very well written, and we can cooperate if we have the opportunity." ”

"No problem, Director Wu asked me to cooperate, that's my honor." Li Yange smiled at the corner of his mouth, he didn't know much about Wu Tianming, but he also knew that after the nineties, with the rise of the fifth generation of directors, Wu Tianming rarely made movies anymore.

If you have the opportunity in the future, you can cooperate.

After chatting here, Li Yange returned to the seat of the crew of "The Last Emperor", and chatted briefly with Ning Ying and Bertolucci for a while, and learned that Bertolucci was not confident in winning the Golden Palm Tung Award, but he could understand why.

The taste of the Oscars is different from that of the three major European film festivals, although the film "The Last Emperor" is not very commercial and historical, and it is barely a personal biopic, logically speaking, it is very in line with the tastes of the three major film industries.

But Bertolucci won the Oscar, and according to the unwritten rules, the probability of Bertolucci wanting to win the grand prize is infinitely close to zero.

However, this is not without benefits, in order to divide a little trophy equally, or to divide the cake according to the participating films, "The Last Emperor" will most likely not return empty-handed.

In fact, as Li Yange thought.

When the major awards were presented one after another, the guests on the stage read out the list in their hands: "Congratulations to "The Last Emperor" for winning the 41st Jury Special Award!" ”
