Chapter 411: Jury Grand Prize Silver Bear Award (asking for monthly ticket)

Hao Yun, director Gu Changwei and his wife Jiang Wenli, screenwriter Li Qiang, "brother" Feng Li and "sister" Zhang Jingchu walked on the red carpet as the main creators.

In Berlin, like in Cannes, the red carpet goes on all day and all night.

Even movie premieres have them, but the people walking the red carpet depend on the appeal of the movie.

Peacock is an award-winning hit film.

Gu Changwei is also a frequent guest at European Film Festivals, and has long been able to thrive alongside Zhang Yimou, Jiang Wen and others.

Therefore, the red carpet of "Peacock" was very lively.

Many domestic and foreign filmmakers came, and various media also came in full force.

After walking for a while, everyone dispersed and accepted simple interviews or took photos.

With Jiang Wenli, the tigress, around, Gu Changwei would definitely not dare to act rashly.

I didn't even dare to look at Zhang Jingchu for even a second.

The couple took photos separately, and Hao Yun and his two siblings also took photos. After taking a few photos, the three of them went their separate ways.

Hao Yun felt very lonely when he was alone.

Fortunately, he was also a hot commodity in the eyes of the media on the scene, even more eye-catching than Zhang Jingchu who was dressed up.

Whether they wanted to take pictures of him or interview him, they all beat Zhang Jingchu in seconds.

This made Zhang Jingchu feel very uncomfortable.

Even dressed like this, she was not as good as Hao Yun, who was almost in casual clothes.

"I am very happy to see you all at the Berlin Film Festival. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them. After the film is over, I will accept a group interview."

Hao Yun was very polite to the media.

"Why don't you have any works on display this time? I heard that you completed a movie last year." This is the question that the reporters are most concerned about.

This young man from the East can be considered hardworking as he directs a movie every year.

Much better than his mentor Jiang Wen.

However, some people are concerned that excessively high production frequencies may lead to quality defects.

"This movie is a youth romance film. I am also very interested in this type of film, so I gave it a try and used this relatively relaxed time to focus on planning the filming of Whiplash that I will shoot this year. The inspiration for Whiplash comes from my identity as a music creator..."

Hao Yun quickly turned the topic to his new movie.

It can also be considered as building momentum for the new movie, increasing its popularity and laying the groundwork for future awards.

However, the European sisters did not forget to care about his private life and asked: "Apart from work, have you made any progress in your relationship? Will you bring your girlfriend with you to the Berlin Film Festival next year?"

"Sister, if you want to know about my single status, I can tell you that I am still single. However, due to my busy work, I regret that I cannot go on a date with a beautiful girl like you." Hao Yun is very good at making girls happy.

Even if it is a rejection, it is a rejection that makes people unable to hate it.

"I heard that the Chinese film industry has doubts about your ability to make "The Heart Labyrinth", and even a prize-winning director at the Tokyo International Film Festival has publicly expressed a similar view. Do you have anything to say to the Berlin Film Festival?" The reporter asked a rather sensitive question.

"My mentor Jiang Wen has also been questioned by many people. I think being questioned may be the fate of every film artist. Filmmakers who truly understand movies and can see the essence through the form of movies can actually see the difference between me and my mentor. Our two films have two completely different cores..."

Hao Yun demoted Lu Yan openly and secretly.

But he did not curse directly, but guided the reporters to curse.

It has tarnished Lu Yan's image in the foreign film industry.

Anyway, he has to lie dormant for two years and cannot come out to defend himself. When he comes out, he will find that he has been ruined by Hao Yun.

If there was no Hao Yun, or if there was no Lu Yuan who always implied that Hao Yun's "Maze of the Heart" was not shot by Hao Yun himself, thus annoyed Hao Yun and published that paper, tearing off Lu Yuan's fig leaf, Lu Yuan and his "Kekexili" would have premiered again at the Berlin Film Festival.

It's my first time.

Me too, it's my first time today.

That's roughly what he meant. The film should have been screened in China, and he's also been to Tokyo, so he can still say that it was the premiere.

Lu Yan only needs to show up in Berlin and have a meal with the presidents of major film festivals in Europe and America - just a group of people eating together, you join in to eat a few bites, and accept live interviews from major media and radio stations, and then you can create another big hype.

Not only can you gain fame, but you can also sell the overseas copyright of the film.

In this way, he would be able to give an explanation to the producer Aunt Hua - what is there to explain now? The film only sold more than 6 million at the box office in total, and he took 30,000 US dollars from the Tokyo film festival, which he put into his own pocket.

Compared with the cost of more than 10 million, it would definitely be a loss.

Hao Yun was not afraid that Aunt Hua would have any opinion about him.

Hao Batian could make back all the money that Lu Yan lost.

It’s clear at a glance who is the boss.

Besides, Auntie Hua's films "A World Without Thieves" and "Kung Fu" produced this year were both good box office movies, so she didn't care about the little money Lu Yan lost. But she would definitely put this account on Lu Yan's account.

If Lu Yu makes another movie, it will be difficult for him to get investment based on his own abilities, and he will probably have to rely on his father again.

After a brief interview, we went in to watch a movie.

This film is Gu Changwei's directorial debut.

The subject matter of the film is quite literary, and the box office was not considered at all. However, on an occasion like today, literature and art is what suits the taste of these audiences.

Hao Yun has not seen the edited version.

After he finished filming the movie, he had no connection with the movie.

I finally saw the full movie today.

While others watched the movie, Hao Yun watched the photography and editing.

The whole film has more than 300 shots, many of which are long shots. This shooting method downplays the director’s personal perspective and allows the entire film to maintain a calm and objective texture.

Individual scenes throughout the film are almost all freeze-frame mime style, as if placing the viewer in the center of a stage play.

Gu Changwei extended stop-motion photography to the film, cleverly reflecting the relationships between characters and the direction of the plot by arranging the positions of each character.

Hao Yun followed Gu Changwei to shoot this movie, and when he watches it now, what touched him most were the various photographic techniques.

Gu Changwei is definitely one of the best photographers in mainland China.

Other talented actors include Zhao Xiaoding, Zhao Fei, etc., but unfortunately Hao Yun couldn't afford them to make the movie.

They are now involved in big productions.

The editing is also very distinctive.

Each person's story is a connection between fragments, and the causal relationship between them is left as a blank in the movie for the audience to imagine. For example, why the younger brother's finger was broken, why Wei Hong was not selected as a paratrooper, etc.

Hao Yunwang took some of Gu Changwei's attributes and quietly learned by watching movies.

He discovered a problem, that is, after photographing a person's attributes, the effect would be very good when watching the movie he made.

At the end of the movie, Hao Yun, as one of the actors, accepted congratulations and questions from the audience together with other main creators.

Clearly, the film was recognized.

After the end of "Peacock", Hao Yun also gave a media interview alone.

This interview has nothing to do with "Peacock". He did not bring his own films to the Berlin exhibition, but he was still able to organize media interviews.

This is all the result of the Best Screenplay Award at the Cannes Film Festival.

Even if Hao Yun has not won any actual awards since then, as long as he occasionally participates in an exhibition or gets nominated, he can become a judge at an international film festival in his thirties or forties by constantly showing off his reputation.

The fastest way for him to establish his own film authority is to explain his film concepts in media interviews.

But this method is only suitable for a small number of people.

You have to have something in your head.

Otherwise, instead of making some hmm/ah sounds in front of so many media, it would be better not to embarrass yourself in this way.

Hao Yun was slapping his attributes on his body while answering questions from reporters.

It's a pity that he is still not up to par, otherwise he could organize a film seminar of his own, which would be really pretentious.

After the interview, the next day, Hao Yun, Gu Changwei and others attended the film festival closing ceremony red carpet together.

This is more lively.

The award ceremony went smoothly and the winners were announced one by one.

"Carmen de Khayelitsha" directed by South African director Mark Donfort May won the Golden Bear Award for Best Film.

"Peacock" won the Silver Bear Grand Jury Award.

This was the second-ranked grand prize, and Gu Changwei won it beautifully.

After returning to China, it caused another sensation.

However, Hao Yun returned to the crew of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" early to film, and he hoped that the TV series could be completed as soon as possible.

It would be best if the filming could be completed by the end of March.

Three groups started shooting in October last year, and it has been more than four months now and it has not been completed yet. We can only say that the effect needs to be improved.

If we could draw the storyboards first like he did, even if there were changes later, filming would have been completed long ago.
