Chapter 33 "Genius Gunslinger"

In the midst of all the disturbances, a year passed like this.

In the hustle and bustle, the year has arrived.

1991 year.

The nominations for the 50th Tianma Awards have been announced, and "Peking Holiday" is on the list.

The full name of the Tianma Award is the Huaguo Film Arts and Sciences Association Award, and the trophy is a golden Pegasus that spreads its wings, which means to encourage filmmakers to create literary and artistic works without restraint.

Its status in China Entertainment is what the Oscars are to Hollywood.

"Peking Holiday", as the most dazzling dark horse in the past year, at least in terms of nominations, can be described as a bumper harvest -

The film itself, nominated for Best Picture;

Wang Wei, nominated for Best Director;

Shen Zhenyi, nominated for Best Actress;

Zhou Lin, nominated for Best Cinematography;

There are also Best Costume Design, Best Music, and Best Editing, with a total of seven nominations, which can be said to be one of the most nominated films at this year's Pegasus Awards.

As soon as the nominations were announced, public opinion became even more uproarious.

Nomination is not the same as winning the award, but at least it shows that the film and the main creator have been recognized by the Film Association.

This caused a polarization of public opinion at a time when Wang Wei's "gunmangate" incident was in an uproar.

One side believes that this is enough to prove that the so-called "gunmangate" is nonsense.

But the other side is more convinced that "Gunmangate" is indeed a thing.

What do you think, how many famous directors can't get so many nominations at one time, Wang Wei is twenty years old, oh, it should be twenty-one years old, in short, he is still a hairy boy, can he be more bullish than a big director?

If there is a senior director behind the filming, everything will make sense.

As for being nominated, it's not that you don't know that there is such a thing as "public relations" in reality.

Such a controversy is certainly not a good thing for Wang Wei's reputation, but it is not a bad thing for the film "Peking Holiday".

It's very simple, the DVD of "Peking Holiday" is about to be released!

DVDs, which emerged in the mid-to-late eighties, have now become an important money-making tool in the film industry.

Moreover, the proportion of its profits is increasing.

After all, compared to the box office revenue to be shared with the theater chain, the cost of DVD is almost negligible, and the income can be described as pure profit, who is not tempted?

And with profits, the festival of film manufacturers has begun to fall-

Wang Chuanqi was not in a hurry to refute the rumors, and asked Wang Wei to integrate some of his director's scheduling shots, together with the previous interesting films such as "Shen Zhenyi's Eating Award" and "A Group of Biao Men Playing Twisting Cars on the Set", into the DVD.

Then the slogan "The truth of the gunslinger gate is in it" was played, and it was grandly launched on the market by taking advantage of the general trend of being nominated for the Tianma Award.

Well, those who believe in the "gunnergate" will still be convinced after reading it. What can be explained by a few shots, just act casually.

But this gimmick has really boosted DVD sales. Anyway, many people are looking for the truth of "Gunman's Gate" and bought the DVD of "Peking Holiday".

People in the industry all sighed at Dunhuang's shamelessness - this is really taking advantage of the hype from beginning to end, and even his own family will not let go!

If it weren't for Zhuo Qun, who was determined to be the king of the paparazzi, it would be impossible for him to be bought by money, and they would all suspect that this "gunman gate" was directed and acted by Dunhuang.

……

Dunhuang Pictures, Wang Wei's office.

Wang Chuanqi's reporter classmates made an appointment to have an exclusive interview with Wang Wei today.

Reporter Lu asked: "What do you think of the media rumors that "Peking Holiday" was filmed by someone else?" ”

"They're so right!" Wang Wei replied very seriously.

Reporter Lu was stunned, a little unable to believe his ears.

Then I heard Wang Wei's serious expression, and he output in one breath: "Although I don't know what the movies I will make in the future, they have already seen through the future and know that I will get worse and worse."

The wise ones naturally thought of an explanation - "Peking Holiday" was not filmed by me.

Although I appeared on the set every day during filming, I must have been just an actor.

Because they have already discovered that the assistant director Xu Daoxing is a veteran with deep qualifications.

Although none of them knew what movies Assistant Director Xu had made, what did it matter?

In the face of mountains of ironclad evidence, my job as a director is to shout and turn on, and then hand over all the work to Deputy Director Xu.

The truth has finally emerged.

All my scheduling on the set was arranged by Assistant Director Xu a long time ago.

The content I told the actors on the set was also written out by Deputy Director Xu in advance, so that I could memorize it, and then go to the live performance to show every staff member.

Therefore, I am acting both in and out of the play, and I can be called the most dedicated actor in "Peking Holiday".

Therefore, I should have won the Pegasus Award for Best Actor, but I was not even given a nomination.

As for the hundreds of people on the set, none of them came forward to tell the truth, and they have already penetrated everything - I am the owner of a small film company, and I must have paid to silence everyone.

As for someone who gave more money, they couldn't get any staff to stand up and tell the secret, and they finally woke up-

I'm the owner of a small film company, and I have the power to ban anyone who dares to go against my will.

They gasped and decided to stand up and expose me for what I really was.

I, Wang Wei, am so terrifying! ”

“……”

Reporter Lu was dumbfounded.

Assistant Ding, who was observing, had a consistent expressionless face, and his face was twitching.

Lao Wang, who was listening, almost turned around with laughter.

After a long time, reporter Lu came back to his senses: "You are really ......"

"Premium Black." Wang Wei interface.

Premium Black? It sounds a little fresh, but it's so vivid.

Reporter Lu looked down at the outline of the interview and felt that there was no need to continue the interview.

What should be answered, what should not be answered, this guy answered it all in one breath.

He could already imagine how many media's faces would be swollen after these words were truthfully released!

……

After the old classmates left, Wang, who was smiling and had a stomachache, began to worry: "Your spray is cool, but it will offend a large number of media!" ”

Wang Wei was about to answer, but a line of words suddenly appeared in his mind:

[Temporary Mission: Battle for the Right Name.]

Mission: Shoot a feature film as a director and fight back against the media's gunman on behalf of the film.

Reward: Clip Aura (Beginner). 】

There's a new mission coming?

But this task is very much to his heart.

Just, right, ripost? What is a riposte?

Wang Wei's mind was spinning rapidly.

First of all, the results must be good, otherwise let alone a riposte, it is completely the initiative to hand over the handle;

secondly, since it is to fight back, of course, it must be provoked to the face, so that they can't avoid it;

Then, the topic chosen should be targeted.

A work flashed through Wang Wei's mind.

After settling down, Wang Wei coughed lightly under Lao Wang's puzzled gaze: "I am not only offending a large number of media in words, but I am afraid that I will continue to offend in action." ”

"What do you mean?"

"I've figured out what to do with the second movie."

Lao Wang was in high spirits and took the initiative to make a suggestion: "Do you want to choose one of "My Sassy Girlfriend" and "Charlotte's Troubles"?" I suggest you choose "Sassy Girlfriend", this genre of love + light comedy, you have proven to be able to control it very well. ”

"Nope." Wang Wei shook his head, "I want to make a new script." ”

"The tentative name is 'Genius Gunslinger,' and it's a story about cheating."

Lao Wang was dumbfounded.

From the title of the movie to the story, can the meaning of the slap in the face be more obvious?

"You're going to do something!" Lao Wang was both melancholy and inexplicably a little expectant.

Wang Wei smiled: "Since someone wants to do something, let's do it together!" ”
