"The Berlin International Film Festival was founded in 1951. It is one of the three largest film festivals in Europe along with Cannes, France, and Venice, Italy. They are all the highest-level international film festivals in the film field. The Golden Bear Award is the best film award in Berlin's main competition unit. It is awarded every year It will only be awarded to one work."
The next day, the people in the capital saw the newspaper, which introduced Berlin and the Golden Bear Award in a large space, because the people had to know it, and only if they knew it would they feel that this matter was important. Then they started to brag.
"If Chinese films want to go abroad and enhance their international influence, winning honors at the three major European exhibitions is the most effective way!"
"In 1981, director Ling Zi's "The Wilderness" was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival; in the same year, Shanghai Film Studio's "The Return of the Swallow" was shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival, but failed. In 1982, "The True Story of Ah Q" was shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival, Pearl Film Studio "Nostalgia" was shortlisted for Berlin again, but all failed.
These four films are all our experience in competing in the three major exhibitions.
.......
The author believes that it will take another four or five years of practice and practice before we can achieve some results. Unexpectedly, this day has come early. "Life is Beautiful" represents the first step for Chinese films in the world! This is history The victory of sex! This is the glory of Chinese cinema!"
Through the text, it seems that a female reporter named Yu can be seen screaming in a twisted way.
In fact, there is no need for her to exaggerate too much. Everyone thinks it is very impressive that a Chinese can win an award from a foreigner these days. People who saw the newspaper were also talking about it. "Which Berlin is this?"
"Sid?"
"Hey, isn't that a capitalist country? They also like our movies?" "That only shows that our movies are good!"
"It makes sense, I will definitely go and take a look when it comes out!"
Compared with the masses, colleagues in the literary and art circles understand the status of the Golden Bear Award better, and are envious, jealous, and hateful. Three art schools, namely Nortel, China Theater, and Shanghai Theater, also learned the news. The school immediately found connections, hoping The main creator of "Beautiful Life" can come and communicate with the students.
China Film Company.
Everyone is also talking about it, but the topic goes astray.
"Damn it, Dongchang has gained the upper hand again. I feel sick when I think about how arrogant they are when they come back!" "Shh! Who told you I called Dongchang? How can you say it?"
"It's okay, they are all our own people. What are they if they are not Dongchang? They know what they want every day and earn foreign exchange by any means. What does it look like? It doesn't matter if they win the Golden Bear Award. As long as it is distributed in the country, that's not what we are talking about. Forget it!" "But I heard that "Life is Beautiful" is very sensitive. What if it is not sold domestically but only exported?"
"Export sales???"
"Hahaha, Lao Wang, congratulations!"
"Where does my happiness come from? We didn't take the photo. I should congratulate you."
Wang Yang from the Ministry of Culture walked into Ding Qiao's office. Both of them were delighted and congratulated each other.
Wang Yang was particularly happy. Chen Qi was just like his own grandson. Although his wings were stiff now and he met less often, whenever he had time, Chen Qi would definitely go back to the Beijing Film Studio to visit him or give him something.
"They are competing overseas and are very glorious from top to bottom. We decided to hold a commendation meeting at Beijing Film Studio. Lao Zhu and I will attend. When you go back, prepare to welcome their triumphant return." "You don't need to say anything. , I learned the news and started preparations immediately!”
Wang Yang snorted. Li Wenhua was from the Beijing Film Studio, Gong Xue was from the Beijing Film Studio, and some of the crew members were also from the Beijing Film Studio. They still had the name of the Beijing Film Studio. Of course they had to be opened in the Beijing Film Studio. Only What a pity, that guy started his own business, otherwise Beijing Film Studio would have gone sideways.
He thought Ding Qiao had called him here just for this matter, but Ding Qiao suddenly stood up, closed the door, and sighed, saying, "Well, happy things are very happy, and sad things are also sad!" "Huh?"
Wang Yang was stunned: "Is there anything else?"
"You also know that the country has been planning economic reforms. If reforms are really implemented, the film industry will not be able to escape." "How to change it?"
Wang Yang suddenly raised his voice.
"No, no, it's still in the preparation stage, but I think it will be soon, maybe next year.
Because after the Spring Festival, our ministry received instructions to talk to studios, China Film, film companies, local cultural bureaus, movie theaters, etc. to listen to the opinions of all parties. Isn’t this just to prepare for the introduction of policies?” “The general direction is What?"
"Enhance the activity of enterprises and break the tradition of eating from one big pot. I heard that there are still taxes, but we can't control the tax aspect. I'm here to see you today. Let's talk about the film studio first. What problems do you think are currently there?" Wang Yang said to I was mentally prepared for this and talked about it immediately.
Ding Qiao nodded repeatedly and took notes from time to time. Finally, he said: "Lao Wang, you are 67 this year. You should have responded to the country's call and stepped down. Because you need to continue working, you stayed for a few more years. Now you are here." situation, once the policy is released, it will definitely have an earthquake-like impact.
You are an old comrade who will be honored throughout your life. We don’t want to see you still burdened with running around at your age. Let me tell you straight, the organization is already considering candidates to succeed you.” “Is there a specific time?”
"No, let's see when the policy is announced!"..."
Wang Yang was silent for a while and nodded: "I accept all arrangements!"
When he came out of the Ministry of Culture, his mood was completely different from when he came. For some reason, he thought of Chen Qi again: If he quits, what would he do? In the toilet.
Director Chen is taking a shit.
He held a newspaper and read it word by word, then glanced back and read it a second time, word by word. The words "Berlin", "Life is Beautiful", "Golden Bear" and "Golden Bear" smelled of ink. "China", like knives stabbing his little heart.
Director Chen went to a children's film studio after graduation and is still working together today. What can he film in a children's film studio? Can you please sit down when filming Arthur?
So he has been looking for opportunities to make a big splash, and expressed disdain for several old classmates who hugged Chen Qi like a dog. As a result, they won the Golden Bear, the first in China! The newspaper began to shake slightly, revealing the depressed and irritable expression of Director Chen. Face, after holding it in for a long time, he finally cursed: "!"
The set of "The Burning of Old Summer Palace".
During the break, Liu Xiaoqing wore a flag head decoration weighing more than ten kilograms and silently put the newspaper aside.
Her competitiveness is unimaginable. She has always looked down on Gong Xue, who only slept with men, but now she also feels a little powerless. Can Li Hanxiang and Qing Palace Drama win the Golden Bear? She doesn't think so.
She originally hoped that after the release, her popularity would surpass that of Gong Xue, but now she has no confidence anymore. Shanghai Film Studio.
Xu Sangchu, the old factory director, paced around the room with his hands behind his back.
"Life Is Beautiful" was co-produced by Shanghai Film Studio, but this credit is nothing. Beijing Film Studio was the winner. It did nothing but was given the title of a producer. Xu Sangchu and Wang Yang are the same age. , is also 67 years old, and knows that he will not be able to stay in this position for long.
What will Shanghai Film Studio do after he retires?
"Gong Xue is from Shanghai and is not close to his hometown at all. The current situation..."
He also knew that organizational reforms were brewing, and he might change to a film studio soon. All the production units in the country were holding back at home, and only Chen Qi could show off his power overseas and earn foreign exchange. "Let's take the initiative to contact him and maybe cooperate on a film." , it’s good to have a sweet relationship.”
