"Xinghui has reached a strategic agreement with the DV company of Haolaiwu, and the superhero movie "Righteous Man" will probably ......be filmed by Xinghui's director."

"We all understand that from the perspective of objective factors, what is the reason for the failure of "Superman 2" in China, you can't do it like "Infernal Affairs" in every movie, right? Compared with the volume of Huaxia, the international box office of "Superman 2" is still obvious to all, they have the most advanced special effects equipment, and the most mature industrial system of Haolaiwu, we in Huaxia have no way to compare with each other, in the past, you made some commercial movies and literary films, in fact, I am quite optimistic about you, you have talent and amazing talent, but sometimes this line of work really can't be too urgent, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and now is really not the time to make this kind of blockbuster......"

"There are many people who float away after making a few successful movies and start trying blockbusters, you look at Chen Kai, Chen Kai has made a bad one since "Overlord", ......"

"Capital won't move you when you've been successful, but when you suddenly go downhill or show flaws, they will swarm you and gnaw you to the bone......"

"Although you have someone behind you, but, after all, this is a shopping mall, no matter how powerful the people behind it are, unless there is really an amazing situation, it is impossible to break the business rules to help your ......"

“……”

The smiling tiger Zhou Yilin rarely did not smile at Zhou Yang, but said a lot to Zhou Yang very seriously.

Since "The Golden Armor in the City", the relationship between Zhou Yang and Zhou Yilin has become closer, and later Zhou Yilin even joined the Chinese Young Directors Association and became one of the members.

Although he once did some messy things and pressed Zhou Yang's "Mine Bottom" into some films at the Berlin International Film Festival, time passed, and when Zhou Yang really began to rise and showed amazing talent, Zhou Yilin inevitably had some admiration in his heart......

But now Zhou Yilin is worried.

In fact, he has long wanted to talk to Zhou Yang about "Spider-Man", but Zhou Yang is too busy these days, and he has never seen him, this time he just took the opportunity of the Venice International Film Festival to remind Zhou Yang a little.

Over the years, there have been too many directors who have made a few commercial films with good reputation and box office, and then floated away and began to contact the so-called "blockbuster field".

He has also been so inflated, and he also thought about being the first person in the commercial literary box office of Chinese films, and ambitiously filmed "Warring States" and "Golden Armor in the City".

The ending is obvious......

"Warring States" is bloody, and "The Golden Armor of the City" is not a puff, but it can only protect the capital even if it is counted at the overseas box office, and it is not as profitable as some small-budget movies, and many fans ridiculed "Jiang Lang is exhausted", and even the capital circle that originally pursued him very much began to turn their backs on him, feeling that he was about to fall.

"I still say that, you are talented, and it is obvious to all, but you have Jiang Lang's talent after all, I don't know if you haven't read Xinghui's boss Li Zhongjun's Weibo, although he said it bluntly, but the truth...... You are very powerful, but your strength is not enough for you to support the ...... of the entire Chinese film industry"

The Venice International Film Festival is still buzzing.

But Zhou Yilin's words are clearly visible.

"Director Zhou, I understand, but I want to try ......"

"Xiao Zhou, I admire your spirit of daring to try, but now is really not the time, you have no idea how deep the water is in this industry, the reason why the IP of the "Superman" series is so powerful, in addition to its own good shooting and special effects, but also because this IP has been preceded by comics and animation, and the people themselves have an audience, and your "Spider-Man" ...... I felt a little panicked when I heard the name, spiders, flies, lizards...... Mainstream audiences and kids, who would love this mess? ”

"Director Zhou, I know ......" Zhou Yang listened to Zhou Yilin's serious words, and only responded with a calm smile.

"Well, okay, you think about what I said, there is only one director like you in Huaxia, although I am loyal, but at least I won't harm you......"

"I know."

After Zhou Yilin saw Zhou Yang's expression, he was a little disappointed in his heart.

But in the end, he nodded, turned and walked in the other direction.

Zhou Yang silently looked at Zhou Yilin's departing back, and finally closed his eyes.

He naturally knows what Zhou Yilin said, filming "Spider-Man" is naturally risky, even if there are successful examples of the original world as the basis, filming "Spider-Man" still carries risks, and there are many uncontrollable factors.

But......

You have to give it a try, don't you?

Just when Zhou Yang opened his eyes, the lights in the entire hall dimmed slightly, and then lit up, and the Venice International Film Festival awards ceremony officially began.

Zhou Yang saw an acquaintance.

President of the Jury of the Berlin International Film Festival, Charlotte Brown. Cylie!

She was one of the presenters at this year's awards ceremony......

………………………………

Although the 64th Venice International Film Festival has been criticized, abused, and satirized by countless people.

But when the festival actually starts, the atmosphere on the scene, including the atmosphere of the media, will seem very serious.

Among the three major film festivals in Europe, Venice is the most literary and artistic film festival and the most authoritative.

As an old-timer in the European film industry and a woman who once amazed a time, Charlotte. Even though she is old, Sally still carries elegance.

Especially when Charlotte. When Sally stood on the stage and followed everyone to talk about the end of the Yinlak* war, and there were countless dead refugees on the battlefield, the expressions on everyone's faces became even more serious.

After a brief thirty-second silence in the room, Charlotte . Sally began to talk about the meaning of cinema again, and then looked back at the history of the Venice International Film Festival.

The scene was extraordinarily solemn.

Followed by a song and dance that Zhou Yang didn't understand, and didn't know how to appreciate it. Sally turned into another bearded, gray-haired old man.

Zhou Yang knew very little about these Western directors, but when he saw that many people around him welcomed the director named Carmeli with warm applause, and his eyes were full of respect, he realized that this was a great literary director.

"Carmeli has won the Golden Bear in Berlin, the Palme d'Or in Cannes, and the Golden Lion in Venice, and he is the only king of literary directors in the history of world cinema who has won a European film grand slam......

After Zhou Yang heard that someone behind him was introducing this host, his heart was slightly shocked.

Then, he heard a sigh again: "However, until he announced his retirement a few years ago, he did not win the Golden Lion Award at the Venice International Film Festival, and I didn't expect this year's Venice to invite him to come over as a host......

Carmelly stood on the stage and made a few playful jokes that made the Westerners around him laugh.

The king of European directors seems to have liberated his nature, making fun of words like "bitch" in public, comparing himself to a "bitch" who pulls out his pants and is ready to sell......

But Zhou Yang didn't know where the joke was, and even felt a little vulgar, and then he realized the so-called difference between Eastern and Western cultures.

The award ceremony began shortly.

The first award is the Best European Short Film.

The name of the film is "Bleeding" and it is a short film composed of a number of documentaries on the battlefield of Yin Ra*.

The award was won by a young Norwegian director, who was so excited on stage that he couldn't speak, and finally thanked everyone in tears.

Onigiri reads a book

"Zhou Yang ......"

"Huh?"

"My mother's sudden nervous phone call before, don't take it to heart, I've actually been quite optimistic, and I wish you and An Xiao's ......"

Zhou Yang looked at the award ceremony, watched and watched, and suddenly heard Song Yiyi's voice around him.

He turned his head.

Seeing Song Yiyi sitting next to him, he didn't look at himself, but stared directly at the Norwegian director who stepped down on the stage.

"Ah, thank you, in fact, it may not be possible, An Xiao and I still need to know more......"

"It's to get to know ...... well" Song Yiyi nodded, and did not look back, but still stared at the stage.

Silence ensued.

Zhou Yang saw that Song Yiyi didn't care about himself, so he continued to look at the screen.

The next award was another nomination in the short film category, the Golden Lion for Best Short Film, which was won by the Italian director, Coleman, and the winning film was "Time", which mainly tells the story of living in a snail's house.

Some offcuts film awards later......

Finally came to Zhou Yang's "Infernal Affairs" award, the best screenplay award in the main competition unit.

Stills from several films such as "Infernal Affairs" and "Night Walker", as well as "Lighthouse by the Sea" surround the screen......

The light shone on Zhou Yang's face, Zhou Yang felt a little dazzling, and his vision was blurred for a while.

Immediately afterwards, another young host sold a pass and whetted his appetite.

"Congratulations! "Lighthouse by the Sea", congratulations to Mr. Wells......"

"Infernal Affairs" lost to "Lighthouse by the Sea" screenwriter Wells.

Song Yiyi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Zhou Yang......

Best Screenplay, this is the last possible award for "Infernal Affairs" at the Venice International Film Festival, however, the award actually failed!

Is there a big prize?

Best Actor?

Song Yiyi's stunned expression began to become a little excited, and then looked at the stage again.

After a few more offcuts awards......

The blockbuster award for Best Actor has begun to be announced on the stage!

Song Yiyi's breathing became solemn.

couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Zhou Yang......

This is the biggest blockbuster prize that Zhou Yang has encountered so far!

If the Best Screenplay Award for "Infernal Affairs" is not won, then the Best Actor is not ......

But......

A few minutes later, when the results were announced on the stage, Song Yiyi instantly stood up from her chair and her eyes widened.
