The wait is always long.

Since "Searching" was screened at the Palais des Films, the major venue magazines have been almost overwhelmingly optimistic about it.

Even as the news fermented, local newspapers in Germany began to publish the comments of various film critics:

"They are judging her in their own way, using more malicious words and deeds to uphold the so-called 'justice' in their hearts.

But you who are reveling on the moral high ground, you are doing all the sinful things in the name of justice. ”

—Berlinerine Filmgeitung

"In the online world, people don't seem to care what the truth is. They only see what they want to see.

They can selectively ignore objective facts and completely destroy an innocent person based on their own subjective assumptions. ”

- Pioneer Youth Daily

"They don't have to be bad guys, but they play the role of bad guys.

In this cyber atrocity, these self-proclaimed righteous people are actually the same as a large number of people who do not know the truth.

They are all murderers! ”

- Daily Movie Review

"When online violence comes, please remain silent.

Because you don't know that your unintentional words may become the last straw that breaks the camel's back. ”

– Deutsche Welle

After seeing these reports, Zhang Mu couldn't help but feel more and more worried while being happy.

He didn't expect that the topic of online violence would be ignited in advance and would cause such a big response.

This effect was so good that Zhang Mu wondered if someone was trying to harm him.

But at this point, Zhang Mu has nothing to retreat from.

……

March 15th.

Early in the morning, after Zhang Mu and his entourage finished their preparations, they rushed to the movie palace.

Perhaps the expectations that have been accumulated for many days are finally being revealed today, so when he arrived at the movie palace, Zhang Mu found that the red carpet of the closing ceremony was much more lively than the opening ceremony.

And after so many days of screenings, many film lovers who came to the Berlin Film Festival to play are finally familiar with the films participating in the main competition unit.

So after every crew finished, almost all of them could cause a burst of applause.

When Zhang Mu walked on the red carpet with the actors of the crew, there were even more shouts on both sides of the red carpet, and the flashing lights were almost connected, which made people's eyes sting.

Many fans are even using immature Chinese, shouting the names of Zhang Mu and others on the periphery in order to get their response.

For such reasonable requirements, Zhang Mu naturally wants to meet them!

However, no matter how long the red carpet is, it will only be completed in a few minutes.

After they entered the hall of the movie palace, it didn't take long for all kinds of media, audiences, and stars to gradually arrive.

At this point, the awards of the 56th Berlin Film Festival have finally begun to be revealed.

The president of the jury of the main competition unit, Aunt Charlotte is obviously a cheerful person.

After saying a few simple words, she ended her speech and announced the official start of the award ceremony.

And the staff of the organizing committee did not talk nonsense, and immediately arranged for the award presenters to come to the stage. In less than an hour, all the small prizes except for the main competition unit were awarded.

Such a neat and unprocrastinating action made Zhang Mu a little uncomfortable for a while.

This efficiency simply refreshed Zhang Mu's cognition.

But seeing that it was the turn of the main competition unit, Zhang Mu's face couldn't help but become more and more solemn.

Seeing this, the little fairy didn't know why he was so worried, so she immediately comforted him kindly:

"Director, don't worry. If you look at so many German newspapers praising you for a few days, you must have won the prize this time. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Mu's face suddenly darkened a little.

Seeing this, Wan Qian on the side immediately covered her mouth and pulled the little fairy over with a chuckle, and then whispered in her ear.

I don't know what the two of them said, when Wan Qian said it, the little fairy suddenly glared at Zhang Mu shyly, and then said nothing more.

However, after her trouble, Zhang Mu's mood was much better.

At the same time, the awards for the main competition unit on the podium were also announced.

The first to be revealed was the "Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award".

This award is one of the seven Silver Bears at the Berlin International Film Festival.

Alfred Bauer, on the other hand, was the first president of the Berlin International Film Festival.

From 1951 to 1976, he served as president of the Berlinale for nearly three decades, and his influence on the Berlinale was far-reaching.

Therefore, after his death in 1986, the organizing committee of the Berlinale decided to award the "Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award" from 1987 onwards, aiming to recognize films that have opened up new perspectives in the art of cinema.

On the podium, I saw a white-haired grandmother open the letter, and immediately said with a smile:

“zhang·mu——《Search》”

"Congratulations, kid!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Mu was stunned.

Not because of surprise, but because I was not prepared.

But fortunately, after the little fairy quietly pinched it, Zhang Mu immediately came back to his senses.

After hugging the crew, he slowly walked onto the podium with a smile on his face.

Anyway, although it is not the grand prize he wants, it is a good sign to have a good start, isn't it?

Standing in front of the podium, looking at the filmmakers from all over the world below, I saw Zhang Mu smile lightly:

"First of all, I have to thank the jury, because it will be a real surprise for me."

After that, he also held the trophy and waved from the judges on the side, which immediately caused a chuckle in the audience.

Because everyone knows in their hearts that this ambitious young man is definitely here for the big prize.

"There are so many people to thank, so I won't repeat them one by one, I hope I still have a chance to express my gratitude!"

After saying this confident speech, Zhang Mu walked off the stage calmly.

When Chen Daoming in the audience heard this, he couldn't help but say softly with a smile in his eyes:

"It seems that Director Zhang is ready to save his thanks to the end!"

"Hehe, the afterlife is terrifying!"

For Zhang Mu's flamboyant behavior, Chen Daoming not only did not look down on it, but on the contrary, he admired it.

Because on this road of actors, he has almost come to an end.

After all, they are all the presidents of the association, and they enjoy the corresponding allowances, so he has a pure hobby for acting.

Therefore, Chen Daoming is very happy to see the young generation of Chinese filmmakers who can show their confidence in the international film industry and show their Chinese style.

Soon, when Zhang Mu accepted a brief interview backstage, he returned to his seat.

Although the Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award was not a big prize, the little fairy couldn't help but accept it with envy and played with it in her hand.

I don't know what this girl thinks in her heart, she seems to have a special love for awards, and even completely overrides the box office of the movie.
