Early in the morning, the gate of Nortel was crowded.

The annual art examination began, and students, parents, and thousands of people gathered at the gate.

While everyone was waiting, a large banner dozens of meters long slowly rose at the entrance of Nortel.

"Congratulations to Lu Ping'an, a sophomore outstanding student of the 00-level directing department of our school, for winning the Golden Bear Award for Short Film at the 52nd Berlin International Film Festival!"

It is hung under the "Welcome to BJ Film Academy".

The huge banner with a red background was seen by a group of candidates.

"The Berlin Golden Bear, amazing!"

"It's only a sophomore, are all Nortel people so good?"

"It's just a short film, it's not golden."

"You go and try, which Chinese director has won the Golden Bear?"

"It's not just a golden bear, it's a golden palm and a silver bear when they're freshmen."

"Isn't that a short film?"

"Do you think people are not good at parental films? Have you watched "The Tuner"? ”

“。。。 No! ”

"Then you still take the Nortel exam?"

"It's just a hard mouth!"

“。。。”

The students and parents quickly discussed.

There are those who know, and there are those who don't.

As soon as it was discussed, it was the majority who knew it.

In everyone's eyes, the label of "director" on Lu Ping'an is actually not as good as the label of "other people's children".

This is also Nortel's intention, highlighting the "sophomore" and narrowing the age difference, so that everyone knows that we have made a little achievement at Nortel.

When Lu Ping'an returned to China, the art examination had been carried out for many days.

When I turned on my phone on the ground, all kinds of text messages were whirring and ringing.

In addition to those with notes, there are many strange numbers.

As the only seedling, Miao won the short film Golden Bear's influence, which is still good.

Leaving the airport, there were many more reporters waiting than before.

The difference between winning one short film award and winning two short film awards is not small.

Europe has swallowed two of the big three, and there are few people in the world who can do it.

So no matter how small the award is, it has become a big achievement.

What do you think?

What's the mood?

How much was the copyright sold?

Will it hit Venice to win a Grand Slam?

It's easy to go back and forth with these questions.

Of course, it is not surprising that you will be asked, "When will you win the award with a feature film?" ”

"As soon as next year."

Lu Ping'an directly revealed the plan, which was very domineering.

Last year, it was different from the original owner's personality, and it was just emerging, so it was most appropriate to continue the shy introversion of the original owner.

After more than a year, after taking so many honors, the qualifications have come up, and no matter how shy I go, I can't look past Lu Ping'an, I'm too tired, so it's time to be domineering.

"Is there a script?"

"What kind of subject is it?"

"When will the new film start?"

“。。。”

As soon as next year, it will hit the three major European ones with feature films.

In a word, the journalists were excited.

Lu Ping'an is now a representative of genius directors in China.

The short film won the award in a row, and the word-of-mouth box office of the feature film "The Tuner" was excellent, and many people had high hopes for him, thinking that once he felt that he would hit the three major European films with feature films, not to mention surpassing Lao Mouzi, great poets or Hong Kong and Taiwan directors, he would at least become the leader of directors in five generations.

After dealing with the reporter, Hu Qingquan sighed: "After the report comes out, it is estimated that my phone will be blown up." ”

Lu Ping'an asked with a smile: "Otherwise, Lao Hu, you will be my agent." ”

"Find someone else, I want to live a few more years at my age."

The two laughed and got on the school bus again.

All the way to the school, when Lu Ping'an saw the banner, he didn't feel excited.

It's more about when I can get rid of the word "short film".

Winning prizes is really addictive.

When I came to the teacher's building, I was still greeted by President Wang, Secretary Dong, the director of the directing department and the teachers.

The rest is CCTV and the rest of the media.

At the small commendation meeting, he made a speech and thanked him.

After taking a group photo, Principal Wang finally asked, "When will you make a feature film to win the award?" ”

Lu Ping'an still said that it was next year.

In fact, there are plans for this year, such as the director Kendalore said that he would use a film like "Comet" to attack Venice.

He wasn't going to say it, though.

Because I am not sure, and those movies that have already won awards will be made as early as next year, so this is also the truth.

It was already noon after the commendation meeting, and there were still some new students in the school at this time.

More than a dozen, dozens of people were taken by in-service teachers, and these teachers all had classes outside.

Passing by Lu Ping'an, the teachers will greet Lu Ping'an.

"I'm back safely, congratulations."

"Yes, Mr. Wang."

"Yes, Mr. Li...

Then the teachers will turn back and popularize science with the new students, this is the 00-level Lu Ping'an, a well-known director, and one of the three most frequent visitors in Europe...

The freshmen who had known each other for a long time and who only knew about it now were discussed.

"This is Director Lu Ping'an."

"So handsome, I thought I was a senior in the acting department."

"It turns out that he is Director Lu."

"I don't know if Director Lu has a girlfriend...

The discussion is not loud, and it is even quieter when it goes away.

The ears of the spirit of the road are safe and heard.

It's just that he's thinking more about this year's stars.

In this year's session, there are Zhu Yawen, Zhou Yang, Huang Bo, and Liu Yifei for undergraduate and higher vocational students.

It's full of talent.

The head of the directing department just asked him if he wanted to participate, that is, to watch the art exam, audit and so on.

Of course, Lu Ping'an was interested, so he agreed to come down and wait for the re-examination or the final examination.

When I got home, put down my luggage, took a shower, and Lu Ping'an turned on the computer to sort out the harvest this time.

The first step is to take stock of your assets.

The copyright income of the short film "The Tuner" was 2.4 million, 2 million was spent on the big movie, and the remaining 400,000 was used to rent office offices and purchase equipment for special effects, and later there were more than 100,000 left.

After that, the copyright and distribution rights of the big movie "Tuner" earned 12.3 million, the box office profit was 3 million, and the income from the choreographer and special effects was 1 million, totaling about 13 million after tax.

"Black Hole" has a total of 4.6 million copyright and sponsorship income, 4 million is used to pay the down payment of the courtyard, and the remaining 600,000 is left.

Later, "Comet" and "Hired Life" had a total after-tax income of 13.7 million, which will arrive in a few days.

Moutai shares cost 3 million.

There are also two burger joints that are also currently in the million-dollar cash.

Among the remaining assets, he has two sets of courtyard houses, three suites left to him by his parents, two 240-square-meter façade houses, a 500,000 yuan car, the world's most advanced special effects software, and a set of 3D printer technology.

Except for some miscellaneous expenses and sporadic other income.

At present, Lu Ping'an found that the cash available in his hand was 25 million.

"Comet" will be released in a few days, and if the situation is good, there will be a part of the box office.

In other words, in the past six months, his assets have tripled.

Although most of them are lying on the company's accounts, taking them out and putting them in their pockets, and there are still millions of loans to be repaid slowly, Lu Ping'an is already very satisfied.

Do as much as you have.

In the past, I didn't have any money, and I didn't dare to do big things, but now that I have money, it's time to try to do it.

Lu Ping'an carefully calculated for a while, and then called Xiang Guoqiang.

"Boss?"

"Lao Xiang, you go and see if there is a company called Penguin and see if there are any shares sold."

"QQ that?"

"Yes..."

After chatting for more than half an hour, he hung up the phone, and Lu Ping'an thought about it.

Now in 02, the penguins are gradually coming out of the Internet winter, and the company has made a profit, but the shareholders are actually still selling shares to continue their blood, and the success rate of mixing at this time will be very high.

Lu Ping'an is thinking of taking out 20 million to buy, buy as much as he can, not too little, take the lead in the pit, and it's okay if you don't have the rest of the voting rights or anything, anyway.

Of course, if you really can't do it, it doesn't matter, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven.

After arranging things, the next step is to prepare for the next movie.

Kendalore said that he rushed to Venice, Lu Ping'an felt that it was feasible, even if he couldn't win the award and couldn't sell much copyright money, it didn't matter, just spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to get the reward worth the ticket price.

After filming this, make a commercial film.

Rich, that's how capricious.

Soon he selected a few scripts, and after the restoration came out, Zhang Songwen also came to call for dinner, and had dinner with friends in the evening.

It was still Lu Ping'an who closed the stall, but Yan Danchen didn't drink on the grounds of his aunt, so he helped close the stall.

Just wait for the evening to get home, hiss~

Hungry tiger swallows sheep, swallows the sound and endures, swallows and swallows, swallows...

The next day, Yan Danchen asked for leave at home, the reason was that his throat was inflamed, but he could actually change the reason.

Lu Ping'an deliberately wore a high collar to block the traces of last night, came to China Film, and confirmed the matter of "Comet".

"Comet" will be released on March 1 and has now begun to be promoted.

This schedule is not a good schedule, but fortunately, there are almost no competitors in the same period.

In addition, Dongfeng of the Golden Bear Award, as well as Huang Lei, Zhou Gongzi Chen Kun, they will all participate in the publicity, and there is no need to worry about the popularity.

Lu Ping'an's requirements for the box office are not high, and 10 million is enough.

The next day, Lu Ping'an and Huang Lei and Zhou Gongzi began to run publicity.

Newspapers and major portals in the six princesses, Beijing and other places, as well as the new Guangguang Media that participated in the publicity.

Light is not involved in the film production and distribution business now, and now they are strong in publicity.

Wang Changtian is very good at doing business, and his programs are very big, and they have broadcast time in more than 100 TV stations across the country.

Among them, the trump card programs are the 30-minute "China Entertainment Report" and the 15-minute "World Entertainment Report", which are known as "the "News Network" of the entertainment industry.

Since last year, the two programs have been renamed "Entertainment Live" and "Overseas Entertainment Live".

This time, when Lu Ping'an was in Berlin, he was reported on Guangguang's "Overseas Entertainment Scene".

Now that they have come, Lu Ping'an and the creators have participated in the two ace programs of the light and the rest of the programs at one time: "Entertainment People Weekly" and "Celebrity Interviews".

The suspense of the creators during the publicity is quite in place.

Huang Lei: "I played about six me!" ”

Zhou Gongzi: "I don't remember how many of them I played, Director Lu said that there were five million in theory, but there were definitely not so many in practice, what I knew was that I had seen more than five Kun'er." ”

Chen Kun: "At first, I didn't think this script was very good, but later on, I can only say that there are very few people in the world who can come up with such a script." ”

Yan Danchen: "Really don't blink, every detail is critical and useful!" ”

Zhang Songwen: "This is more stamina than "Tuner", and I can't sleep for several days. ”

“。。。”

On television, the first round of overwhelming publicity of the light helped a lot in the promotion of "Comet".

Plus there is also propaganda in newspapers and portals.

"Shortlisted for Berlin Screening"

"Golden Bear Award Road Ping'an New Work"

"The copyright has been grabbed by European film companies before it was released"

"Foreign media: the best sci-fi film of the year"

"Continue to burn your brain, continue to be full of stamina, Lu Ping'an is another masterpiece after "The Tuner"...

Not only that, the sixth princess spent 1 million to buy the broadcast rights for many years, and now they have also started to play the big movie "Tuner".

In addition to the big movie, three short films also began to play.

So more people know Lu Ping'an, a "different" director.

Throughout the end of February, "Comet" became the most popular movie in China.

The lobby sister called and said that many nurses in the hospital were discussing when to see "Comet".

I also want to see Comrade Liu Qianqian, an American who participated in the art examination this year.

"Mom, the director of this movie is the director of "The Tuner".

Comrade Liu Xiaoli was also surprised: "Is it the "Tuner" I watched in New York? ”

"That's right, Lu Ping'an, the one who won the Golden Bear Award a few days ago, and hung a banner at the gate of the school."

Liu Qianqian said and suggested, "Let's go to the movies in a few days." ”

Liu Xiaoli smiled and agreed: "You don't have to wait for the release, it will be screened in a few days, and it will be in Nortel, you can ask Mr. Liu for a good position." ”

"That's great."

On February 27th, "Comet" officially met the audience in the screening room of Nortel University.
