108 Athens for 8 minutes?
"You're not bad, back to the mountains and water, away from the hustle and bustle, a good place to retire."
Bashu Production Center, Han Sanpin sat down to drink tea after visiting a circle, so he commented.
"Mainly to get closer to the pandas."
Lu Ping'an poured water for him, and Han Sanpin asked again, "What about the future, they are all here?" ”
"No, the preliminary work will be done here, and probably next year, I will move back to the capital."
"How much are you going to put this panda project into?"
"Tens of millions must be wanted, animation is not the same as others."
"That's right, the 2D version of "Baolian Lantern" in 99 cost 12 million, and you're afraid that your 3D will have to go to hundreds of millions."
"Actually, it's a lot cheaper in the back of 3D."
The two chatted about Kung Fu Panda for a while, and then earned a Venetian short film.
Today is April 5th, and the completion of the Venice short film is about 90%, and the film is basically formed.
After watching it, Han Sanpin exclaimed: "If you can really win an award in Venice, you will be one of the world's four major short film grands." ”
"I look at it more openly, the three major European ones are not the same as the Oscars."
"It's already very good, you have taken three of the big four now, and you can't find a few in the world, and the top admires you very much."
"How?"
Lu Ping'an suddenly asked.
He knew that Han Sanpin would not say this for no reason.
It's just that Han Sanpin's expression is still calm: "In the past few days, the directors have been solicited above, and they are the director candidates for the BJ8 minutes of the Athens Olympics, and you are on the list." ”
After hearing this, Lu Ping'an's expression also became indifferent.
Next year's Athens closing ceremony BJ8 minutes chief director, this matter has no to fight for.
Most probabilities are predetermined.
Only after Lao Mouzi "messed up" for 8 minutes, there was criticism from top to bottom in the country, and then he began to recruit the chief director of the 08 Olympics from the whole society.
Lu Ping'an was actually thinking, maybe the so-called conscription at that time was also predetermined.
In other words, Chen Da's poetry is not arrogant, but a kind of cry, a struggle?
Shaking his head, Lu Ping'an didn't think about it.
Sure enough, Han Sanpin then said: "Don't have any hope, this kind of thing is bottomless."
Han Sanpin said that there are many people on the list this time.
In addition to film directors, there are also many directors who have had experience in various galas.
But who to choose in the end, he estimates that the top should already have an idea.
Han Sanpin felt that Lao Mouzi had the greatest probability.
After all, Lao Mouzi's qualifications in all aspects are the strongest among domestic directors, especially in terms of foreign fame.
Lu Ping'an nodded in approval.
He doesn't like many of Lao Mouzi's later films, but the current Lao Mouzi is indeed not comparable to him.
In addition to people's grasp of traditional culture and the artistry of film and television works.
Speaking of awards alone, Lu Ping'an's four major players in the world won three short film awards, and he was the first one in China to win the Oscar, but it was still not enough to watch in front of him.
The Grand Slam of the Jury Prize at the three major European film festivals (the Grand Jury Prize is equivalent to the second film of the year): Venice "The Red Lantern Hangs High" in 91, Cannes "Alive" in 94, "My Father and Mother" in Berlin in 00.
In addition, there are three top awards: the Berlin Golden Bear Award for "Red Sorghum" in '88, the Venice Golden Lion Award for "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit" in '92 and "No One Missing" in '99.
In addition, they have also won many more magical domestic three awards of various awards.
How does this compare?
than the box office?
In front of this kind of national event, what is the box office! It might even be counterproductive.
Of course, Lu Ping'an also wants to be a "national teacher" and be an Olympic director, although he can brag for a lifetime.
But now the road is safe and not qualified, unless. Lu Ping'an was able to brush all four awards in two years, breaking out of a name that exceeded almost everyone's expectations, and caught up with the chief director election in the first half of 05.
But now it seems unlikely
After chatting briefly for a while, the time was almost up, Lu Ping'an greeted Guorong, and went to Xiangjiang with Han Sanpin to participate in this year's Academy Awards.
This time, "Source Code" was produced by Eagle Emperor again, so it was able to participate in the Academy Awards, and it was shortlisted for a total of 7 awards.
"Heroes" is even more fierce, 12.
It seemed like a lot, but Lu Ping'an didn't expect anything.
After all, this is the Xiangjiang Academy Awards, and this year is also the year of "Infernal Affairs".
When people set up a stage, how could they sing for others.
has given so many nominations, and there will be some suspicion of pulling people up.
What's more, "Source Code" has no suspense in Lu Ping'an's own opinion, and it is not as good as "Infernal Affairs".
So he didn't really want to go, but the reasons were all thought of, SARS, safety first.
However, Han Sanpin personally came over to see Lu Ping'an's animation project, and then went along the way.
Han Sanpin, as an official person, signed an agreement between Xiangjiang and the mainland this year, and he is going to go.
Now that he is bringing Lu Ping'an, it is not easy to rely on Lu Ping'an.
In fact, domestic practitioners are still very yearning for the fact that they can go to the Academy Awards.
At present, although China has experienced a blockbuster box office frenzy, the real box office frenzy will be next year.
Although the Hong Kong film market has weakened a lot, the mainland film industry as a whole is still much behind Hong Kong.
This is true not only objectively, but also subjectively.
Hong Kong and Taiwan stars come to the mainland, and their worth is still crushing mainland stars, and various film and television dramas can't get much attention without Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, which is a clear example.
Mainland celebrities who have a chance will want to get involved with Xiangjiang and gild themselves.
This situation will continue for nearly a decade!
Like Lu Ping'an, who is not very interested in Xiangjiang now, it is indeed rare.
Then Lu Ping'an explained some things, and the group set off.
That night, everyone landed in Xiangjiang, and Lu Ping'an checked into the hotel arranged by Yindu.
At this time, Yan Danchen and other creators were already in the hotel.
Yan Danchen and Yu Feihong were chatting together.
Lu Ping'an remained silent, and the same was true for the two women.
The other party doesn't know each other's identities, only Lu Ping'an himself knows, it's quite exciting to think about.
Everyone greeted each other, and then they were surprised by the change in Guorong.
It was the same emotion as Han Sanpin's "thinning, darkening, and brightening eyes" in the morning.
Then everyone ate together, and the Eagle Emperor also came, along with Guanxi, whom Lu Ping'an knew before.
A few months ago, Guanxi's new movie "A Thousand Machine Changes" was released, and then he will play "Infernal Affairs 2", which can be described as a straight rise to the top and infinite scenery.
During the banquet, Boss Yang of Eagle Emperor asked Lu Ping'an about the next project: "If the road guide has a plan, we can try to make a joint production." ”
In June this year, the mainland and Hong Kong will sign a relevant trade agreement, which has also sounded the clarion call for Hong Kong films and capital to enter the mainland market.
If you want to succeed in the mainland, or if you want to enhance your reputation, the form of co-production between Hong Kong and the mainland is a good choice.
It's just that Lu Ping'an's answer is the same as the answer to Han Sanpin on the road: "At present, there is a script that is ready to start, and it will be used for awards at a small cost, so let's talk about it after co-production." ”
It's no problem to co-produce, Xiangjiang movies, he doesn't have any psychological burden.
But not now.
Now he's busy with things on his hands.
After eating, Guorong went back to deal with his own affairs, the creators originally wanted to visit Xiangjiang, but now Xiangjiang is the SARS period.
It is currently April, and SARS is getting more and more serious in Xiangjiang, and everyone is very sorry for their lives.
China Film also issued masks, thermometers, etc., which were naturally not comparable to the later mask era, but it also made some of the creators panic.
When resting in the hotel at night, Yan Danchen sent a message: "Warm up the quilt." ”
After a while, Yu Feihong's message also came: "Do you want to come over?" ”
Of course, Lu Ping'an chose Yan Danchen, a real girlfriend.
So he replied to Yu Feihong: "Let's talk about it when we go back to Beijing, let's talk about things." ”
The other side quickly replied: "I'm going back to Shanghai." ”
"Then go to Laomei in July, it's busier these days."
"Okay."
