"What, to attend the closing ceremony of the Beijing University Student Film Festival? No, Brother Lu, I'm filming, how can I have time! Li Tang said with his mobile phone.

This year ushered in the first May Day Golden Week, from April 30 to May 6, a total of seven days off. Of course, there are no holidays at all in filming.

Today is May 5th, and Li Tang has just returned to his room after work, when he receives a call from Senior Lu, informing him to attend the closing ceremony and award ceremony of the 7th Beijing University Student Film Festival held on Beijing TV on May 8, that is, the day after tomorrow.

This year's Beijing University Student Film Festival opened as early as April 15 and lasted for 23 days. Senior Lu told him before that "Extraordinary Summer" was shortlisted for this year's Beijing University Student Film Festival, and it will also be screened in major colleges and universities in Beijing.

It's just that since April 10, he has been filming every day since he substituted for the role of Ling Huchong, and he has long forgotten about it.

And because the crew has suffered disasters one after another, the shooting schedule is very tight, and after the filming of the Hanging Temple scene, it will be transferred to Shaoxing, Xinchang, Huangshan and other places to shoot exterior scenes, it is said that the old man Jin Yong will come to visit the class, and there is really no time.

"Can't you take a leave of absence? You have the potential to win. ”

As soon as he heard that he might win the award, Li Tang suddenly perked up and hurriedly asked, "Is the news accurate, what award?" ”

The Beijing College Student Film Festival, when you hear the name, seems to be very ordinary, as if it is just a city college student film festival. But let's not forget that this city is the capital, which is the center of politics and culture, where almost a third of the best universities in the country are concentrated, and even more so by China's Hollywood, which is still very golden.

"The news should be exact, and it is estimated that it is the most popular actor award among college students." Senior Lu said on the phone.

Senior Lu still hasn't said a word, that is, according to one of the judges of this year's College Student Film Festival, his university teacher revealed that he himself will win the Best Director Award at this year's College Student Film Festival.

I didn't want Li Tang to hear the news, so he blurted out: "Hey, this award can also be operated in the dark?" ”

Don't look at the Beijing University Student Film Festival, which is not big, but there are many awards at all, in addition to the regular Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor and Actress Awards, etc., there are also three awards: the most popular film award for college students and the most popular actor and actress award for college students.

It is estimated that the organizers have concerns in this regard, after all, this is a college student film festival, and they are worried that eating too ugly will cause a backlash from college students, so they have added these three awards voted by college students.

Generally speaking, this kind of voting award is less than the last minute of the deadline, and no one can say that it will win, so Li Tang said this.

"Don't talk nonsense, according to the current statistics, your votes are much ahead of the second place, eight or nine is not far from ten." Senior Lu explained on the phone, and then solemnly cared for it: "You kid pay attention to the door, don't be nonsense about the shadowless, and don't spread the word about what I told you." ”

has not yet been awarded, and it is common to privately reveal that the award belongs to the domestic film and television selection, but in the final analysis, this is a violation after all.

"Understood! Brother Lu, don't worry, I'm just telling you, others promise not to understand a word. ”

"Okay, I've been notified anyway, it's up to you whether you come or not. But if you don't come, the prize will be gone, so don't blame me for not reminding you. ”

"Hey, didn't you say that I was far ahead in the votes, how could I not ...... the prize?"

Before he could finish his words, Senior Lu preemptively said: "Goodbye", and hung up the phone directly.

Li Tang took the mobile phone with a busy sound of "Dududu", and said to himself: "If you don't get the award, it's gone, isn't this just a black box operation!" ”

In fact, winning the award is definitely a surprise for Li Tang.

The reason why he didn't pay attention to this year's Beijing College Student Film Festival before, in addition to being busy filming, another important reason is that the films shortlisted for this year's College Student Film Festival are like a forest.

For example, "Tell Your Secret" starring Wang Zhiwen, "My 1918" by Chen Daoming, "Born Out of Thin Air" starring Li Youbin, an old senior in the opera, and the widely acclaimed "Bath" by Pu Cunxi, Jiang Wu, and Zhu Xu, as well as Zhang Guoli's "A Sigh" and so on.

This is not counting the main theme war film "The Great March: The Great War of Ninghuhang", generally speaking, this kind of film has always been a plug-in in the award selection.

So he didn't pay attention to the fact that "Very Summer" was shortlisted for the Beijing University Student Film Festival from the beginning.

Oh, I almost forgot, there is also a "Emergency Landing" produced by Shanghai Film Studio, and the starring role of this movie is Shao Bin, who has just dealt with him not long ago.

It is definitely not possible to win a prize, Li Tang didn't think much about going upstairs and asking for leave directly from the bearded man.

As soon as he entered the door, the bearded man's first reaction was: "You won the prize?" ”

Sure enough, everyone understands the unspoken rules.

Li Tang couldn't say it clearly, so he could only say, "It's possible." ”

Possibly is sure.

"Best Actor?"

"Uh...... No. ”

Since it's not, then you don't need to ask what the award is.

The bearded man immediately clapped his hands and said, "No problem, I'll give you three days off." ”

Huh, so generous? Li Tang thought that he had misheard.

You must know that he thought he would have to spend a lot of words, and he was even mentally prepared to go back and forth that day.

"Teacher Zhang, you're not kidding, are you?"

"What are you kidding, winning awards is a good thing, and it should be encouraged." The bearded man said with a straight face.

In fact, the old man has already been happy in his heart, he has always felt that Li Tang's only lack is that he is not well-known enough, and now that he has the opportunity to be exposed, of course he raises his hands in favor.

Compared with the Best Actor Award, the old man attaches more importance to the most popular actor award among college students.

The target audience of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" in the future is young people, among which college students are an indispensable group.

"Then I'll leave tomorrow afternoon."

Li Tang calculated that there would be a scene to be filmed tomorrow morning, and it would be rare to rest in the afternoon, so he would have three and a half days of vacation.

"No problem, I'll ask the drama manager to book a ticket for you, and I'll be back on the afternoon of the nineth."

The crew can also help bear the travel expenses, and it is an unexpected joy, Li Tang hurriedly said: "There is no problem in the afternoon of the nineth." ”

……

Lao Zhang is really too polite, and he actually booked a business seat. The only inconvenience is that you still have to rush to Shanghai Pudong Airport by plane, which is nearly 200 kilometers away.

As luck would have it, the flight was hard to come on time. After getting off the plane, Li Tang carried a backpack and walked briskly towards the door of the airport hall.

Anyway, the last time I said goodbye to Xiaopang in Suzhou, it has been a month in a blink of an eye. When I talked on the phone two days ago, Xiaopang also said that she was about to finish in the capital, and she would come to Wuxi to visit the class when she had time to relieve her lovesickness. He came back this time and deliberately didn't call Chubby just to surprise her.

"Hey!"

Suddenly, he was tapped on the shoulder from behind.

Li Tang turned around in surprise and saw a familiar face.

"Xiuxiu!"

"Brother, I just looked at the back, and I guessed it was you."

Li Xiuxiu dragged two large boxes and smiled excitedly.

"Do you have an interview assignment?"

"I'm quitting!"

Li Tang looked at her two big boxes, no wonder.

"So you jumped ship and came to the capital?"

As he spoke, he took the initiative to help her get a box.

Li Xiuxiu was not hypocritical, and said with a smile: "Sort of, I plan to be my sister's assistant." ”

"As an assistant?"

Li Tang was stunned, and couldn't help but say: "You are so dignified that you will let the reporter not do it, and you will be your sister's assistant?" ”

Li Xiuxiu nodded and said, "My sister is working too hard, I just want to help her." ”

Hearing Li Xiuxiu say this, Li Tang was silent.

My ex-girlfriend works very hard, and now with the rise in popularity and continuous film appointments, I really need someone to help take care of her.

Li Xiuxiu immediately said: "Hey, brother, I heard that you are filming "Smiling Proud Jianghu" now, who are you playing?" ”

"Linghu Chong!"

"Wow! It's really fake, didn't it say Shao Bin? Li Xiuxiu's eyes widened.

Speaking of which, the crew's confidentiality work has been done well, and it has been a month since the change of roles was stormy, but there has been no rumor at all.

"Of course it's true, Shao Bin is no longer acting, I'm lucky, I'm on the bench." Li Tang smiled, and at the same time did not forget to take care of it: "This matter is still confidential, don't tell it outside!" ”

"Hee-hee, don't worry, I'm not a journalist anymore. I didn't expect you and my sister to have a big event. ”

"Your sister, what's the big event?"

"My sister won the Best Actress at the Li Jiapo International Film Festival! Hey, brother, you don't know? ”

"Uh...... When? ”

"On the twentieth of last month, my sister and Liu Ling won the Best Actress Award together."

It turned out to be the "Coming Home for the New Year", which won the Silver Lion Award for Best Director at the Venice International Film Festival last year. The only regret is that the film is said to be too gray in content and did not pass the release review. Because it can't be released in China, director Zhang Yuan can only take copies all over the world to participate in film festivals and sell copyrights, but he didn't expect his ex-girlfriend and Liu Ling to get an international actress.

At this time, Li Xiuxiu was looking at him with suspicious eyes and said, "Brother, how long have you not contacted my sister?" Are you two completely broken? ”

“……”

Li Tang was speechless, because he seemed to have not been in contact with his ex-girlfriend for a long time, so that he didn't even know anything about her award.

Alas, men are really big pigs' trotters, and they forget their old loves when they have a new love.

The second more, I'm sorry, there is something during the day, but it's late.
