This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 162 Berlin Film Festival (asking for monthly tickets)
After landing, Hao Yun saw the city of Berlin.

To be honest, I'm a little disappointed.

In fact, there is really no need to have too high expectations for Berlin, especially if you expect it to be very grand.

1990年东西统一时柏林人口约342.2万，到2000年减少至338.4万，目前依旧不超过340万。

Apart from the former East German region, some cities in Germany have developed relatively evenly, and Berlin has more political significance.

Of course, it is still a relatively developed city in Europe and even in the world.

With so few people here, can you believe there was a traffic jam on the road?

I asked the driver and found out it was a parade.

In recent days, people in many countries around the world have been marching and demonstrating against the war that the United States is about to launch against Iraq. In Berlin, with a population of three million, the scale of the anti-war march set a historical record - one-eighth of the citizens took to the streets.

I have to say that the Germans' attitude is worthy of admiration.

It also includes their reflection on history - the reason for the reflection is that the people who launched the movement were killed, while the people launched by Neon are still in power under the protection of Miguo, and their descendants have become rich or noble by relying on the plundering and accumulation of their fathers.

It’s really better to take the subway, Line 2 to Potsdamer Platz Station, and walk meters to the main venue.

After finally arriving at the hotel, it was already time for dinner and the food we had on the plane was of no use at all.

Because of the parade, the city was more or less in chaos.

The film festival recommends that everyone arrange accommodation in a centralized location, as filmmakers from all over the world live here.

After Hao Yun had rested for a while, he was called out by Lu Xuechang to eat. Then he saw the familiar Mai Zhaohui.

"Old Mai! Director Mai!"

"Lucky, Hao Yun?" Mai Huihui was surprised.

He didn't expect to see Hao Yun here, and he would not make a mistake, not only because Hao Yun was his actor, but also because he had taken Hao Yun to the shooting club to play with guns.

"Director Mai, it's me. I'm here with Director Lu Xuechang, from "Kara is a Dog." Hao Yun introduced Lu Xuechang to him.

We are all Chinese, living in a foreign country, so we naturally feel more familiar with each other.

"Let's go eat, right? I'll call Director Du and we'll go together." Mai Zhaohui didn't waste any words and ran to knock on Du Qifeng's door.

It turns out that Du Qifeng also stays in this hotel.

Mai Zhaohui was originally an actor. In 1995, he starred in "Tasteless Detective" directed by Du Qifeng, and since then he entered the film industry.

Du Qifeng called Ren Dahao out again.

This is not the end. Fang Long who came here two days ago has not left yet, so he must be called along.

Berlin looks scary now, so I feel safer when I call Kung Fu Brother.

Everyone in the world knows Van Loong.

Originally Liang Chaowei and others were also there, but he returned to Hong Kong yesterday.

Also returning to Hong Kong yesterday were Zhang Manyu, Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Yimou, Li Lianjie and others.

There are also Gong Li and Li Ming. Although they haven't left yet, they don't live here, so there is no way to invite them, and it may not be possible to call them.

Those who can attend the Berlin Film Festival are all great people, and they all have their own social circles.

It's impossible for it to come out just by shouting.

At the dinner table, Mai Zhaohui's talkativeness ensured that no one felt awkward.

From him, Hao Yun learned a lot of information about this film festival.

"It's a pity that you missed the Avenue of Stars." Mai Zhaohui felt sorry for Hao Yun.

However, Hao Yun was only a supporting role in "Infernal Affairs", so it was definitely impossible for them to invite Hao Yun to the Berlin Film Festival.

After all, even Liu Furong didn’t come.

In terms of influence in Haojiazhuang, Liu Furong is ten times that of Liang Chaowei, but in terms of international influence, Liang Chaowei is much stronger than Liu Furong.

"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Hao Yun didn't care much.

Jiang Wen hopes that he can pursue the art film route and win more Best Actor awards.

But he prefers both.

If you can get an award, you must get it. No matter what industry you are in, you have to have class. Only with class can you gain a foothold better.

You have to make the money you should make.

The purpose of entering the entertainment industry is to make money. If it weren't for the money, Hao Yun would have already started researching controlled nuclear fusion. He is no more impressive than the best actor.

"You acted in my movie, you also acted in Director Du's, and you also acted in Director Lu's. Do you have any more?" Mai Zhaohui asked.

"He made an appearance in Zhang Yimou's film Hero, playing a minor role as a master of the Qin Palace."

Hao Yun did not hide anything. If he was asked to publicize it actively, he would not do it. However, now that the question has come to him, it would be hypocritical to continue to hide it.

Only now did he discover that his pen was broken.

Because among the fifteen Chinese-language films participating in the film festival, he starred in all of them, including "Kara is a Dog", "Infernal Affairs" and "PTU".

In addition, he also starred in "Hero" which entered the competition unit.

Hao Yun has four...

If he had been chosen instead of Wang Shunliu to star in Blind Well, the film would have been five.

"You have four films participating in the exhibition, haha, this breaks the record, you can market them when you go back." Fang Long sighed.

"I really didn't realize that." Lu Xuechang also sighed.

From this perspective, his personal indifference caused Hao Yun to miss the opportunity.

"They are just minor supporting roles, not worth mentioning, please stop making fun of me, a junior." Hao Yun begged for mercy. He had connections with most of these people, so he often became a topic of conversation at the dinner table. "You just entered the industry, and you have achieved such results. You must talk about it." Fang Long and Hao Yun also had connections.

The movie "The Matrix" is expected to hit theaters in the first half of the year.

Hao Yun plays the villain in the film.

Everyone seemed to be talking as a joke, but Du Yang, Huayi's publicity director who was sitting at the same table, was already getting ready to make a move.

No matter how many roles he has, as long as it can promote the film, it's fine.

We only said that Hao Yun participated in four films exhibited at the Berlin Film Festival, but we did not say that he starred in four of them.

The premiere of "Kara is a Dog" was scheduled for the 13th. The first two days were spent attending some film events and watching other movies.

In the most eye-catching competition unit, the number of Hollywood films this year is astonishing.

Miguo's "Variety" magazine said with some pride that the Berlin Film Festival, which is facing financial constraints due to the economic downturn, has to rely on the grand attendance of Hollywood stars and Miguo films to maintain its popularity.

The budget of the Berlin Film Festival is 1000 million euros, of which 650 million is allocated by the federal government's Ministry of Culture, and the rest comes from sponsors and its own income.

Compared to other film festivals, this budget is quite low.

Watch movies, talk about movies...

Hao Yun has some difficulty learning English, and not all movies are in English.

Fortunately, there are English subtitles.

His daily routine is to learn about foreign language attributes, and occasionally he can also learn about wisdom and acting skills.

This is a paradise for art films, where you can often encounter great actors.

He has a good temperament (mental illness), a handsome face, and if he greets others, no one will treat him coldly.

It is easier to have a good conversation if you are trying to find out someone's attributes while chatting with them.

There are many foreign language attributes with 200 or 300 points.

I learned spoken English very quickly, and also learned a lot of German.

He also accepted several interviews. Domestic reporters must know him, and foreign reporters probably thought that he, an ordinary person, was relatively handsome.

Domestic reporters were surprised that he would appear here and asked him some questions, and he answered honestly.

Foreign reporters just treated him as a passerby.

He was also asked about a very sensitive topic.

Ask him what he thinks about the upcoming war between Migo and Ichirako.

Hao Yun didn't care, he replied, "This is a war of aggression!"

I find it very interesting.

Hao Yun also met Nicolas Cage, but Cage was in a hurry. He chatted for a while, praised Hao Yun as a very handsome Chinese man, and then said goodbye and left.

The topic they talked about was pets, and he recommended raising octopuses to Hao Yun.

Hao Yun recommended "Kara is a Dog" to him, but he didn't know whether he would go to see it.

Cage said OK and ran away.

But the probability is ojbk.

Hao Yun's handsomeness makes him very popular among beautiful women, some of whom even want to sleep with him. This is outrageous because this is a palace of art.

Every time this happened, he would look innocent and pretend not to understand English or German.

Speaks fluent Northeastern dialect.

"PTU" also chose to premiere at the film festival. On February 2, Hao Yun and Lu Xuechang were invited to the scene. Hao Yun even went on stage and stood on the left and right of Du Qifeng with Ren Dahua.

Unfortunately, Du Qifeng's influence is mainly concentrated in the Chinese-speaking world.

This is one of the rare times he has participated in an international film festival, so the enthusiasm on the scene was not that great.

However, due to the unique style of his films, they have a certain audience in Europe, so they are not unpopular.

The film structure was interesting and received applause from the audience after the screening.

On February 2, a major event happened at the film festival.

Renowned French producer Daniel Toscan du Plantier died of a heart attack during a film festival.

He and American journalist Edward Bell co-founded the French Film Lumiere Awards.

In the chaos, Hao Yun ran into director Li Yang, whom he had met before.

Li Yang, who interviewed Hao Yun, was also filled with emotion about the appearance of Hao Yun.

Hao Yun and Wang Shunliu are friends. Hao Yun told Li Yang about Wang Shunliu's recent situation. Li Yang said ashamedly that he had no money left for his film, and since it could neither be released nor sold, he paid for it himself to attend the film festival, but unexpectedly it entered the competition unit.

Director Li Yang once lived in Germany and was very familiar with Europeans' artistic preferences. He also taught Hao Yun how to introduce movies in German.

Hao Yun helped him distribute movie flyers for half a day.

On February 2, the day of the premiere of "Blind Shaft", the Berlin Film Palace was packed.

Although "Blind Shaft" is not well known in China and was only screened in a bar there, the film was very popular in Berlin.

The following few shows were also basically full.

If we leave out some of the movie's connotations, Hao Yun can finally understand why Wang Shunliu was able to pull out such attributes. Although this guy looks stupid, he is really talented in acting.

On the 13th, "Kara is a Dog" premiered.
