This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 718 I want to be famous so badly! (Two-in-one monthly ticket request)
There was no hatred between Hao Yun and Li An, at least on the surface.

Li An even showed an extraordinary appreciation for Hao Yun.

As soon as Hao Yun checked into the hotel, he personally delivered the invitation.

That’s right, in person!
Hao Yun was shocked when he opened the door.

An Xiaoxi leaned over from behind him and also saw the smiling old man.

"I heard you were here, so I asked for the room number."

When Li An saw An Xiaoxi in Hao Yun's room, he felt a little surprised.

Normal men probably wouldn't send their women to act in pornographic films. Li An chose this and that, but he wouldn't choose his wife or daughter.

If he really chooses his daughter, Hao Yun will definitely respect him as a man.

"Please come in quickly!"

When Hao Yun invites people in, it is always possible that they will talk at the door.

"Then I'll go back to my room." An Xiaoxi said in a low voice.

She did not book a room with Hao Yun. She just came over to ask Hao Yun after she settled down whether they should go out for lunch together or have the hotel deliver food to their room.

"Let's chat together, Miss An. I won't have to go looking for you later."

Li An said with a smile that he was not unhappy because An Xiaoxi refused to play the role in his "Sejie".

Looking for yourself?
An Xiaoxi nodded and returned to Hao Yun's room.

Hao Yun didn't boil any hot water, so he just took a few bottles of mineral water to make do.

Just make do with it.

At least it means I didn't poison you.

Li An didn't mind An Xiaoxi rejecting him, but Hao Yun still minded that Li An asked An Xiaoxi to act in a pornographic movie.

"My movie will premiere at 3:30 p.m., come and watch it if you get a chance." Li An took out the premiere invitation, which was the movie ticket.

"Of course, of course." Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi both accepted the invitation.

It’s just that Hao Yun’s expression was a little strange.

This……

A salty slice, huh?

To be honest, Hao Yun has never seen such an "art" movie in the cinema.

And go watch pornographic movies with An Xiaoxi?
Hao Yun glanced at An Xiaoxi and found that her expression was also very unnatural, but in front of Li An, it was impossible for her to show that the invitation was hot.

"Also, the incident at the Golden Horse Awards last year was really unfair..."

Li An came over because he knew Hao Yun was coming, so he definitely didn’t need anyone to support him.

Almost all filmmakers attending the Venice Film Festival will attend the premiere of his film, and it is no exaggeration to say that tickets are hard to come by.

"Haha, it's nothing actually." Hao Yun laughed.

He said it was nothing, but his eyes were very cold. He probably understood why Li An came to see him.

The domestic entertainment industry is still waiting and watching for this year's Golden Horse Awards.

Almost no one signed up.

If you count it all, Hao Yun has "Bullfighting" and "Little Forest" to report.

Another film, "The Sound of Wind", is expected to be produced next year.

金马奖规定，2006年9月1日起到2007年8月31日完成的华语影片可以报名。

"The Sound of Wind" will be released on September 9th, which is exactly next year.

Of course, if Hao Yun wants to fight with it, it’s not impossible, just like in “Sejie”.

"The Ring" will be officially released in Taiwan on September 9th.

But Li An's film was shown only once at the Venice International Film Festival, which was considered as a release.

If the film is released, it meets the registration requirements.

By the same token, no matter where Hao Yun is, as long as there is an official preview in the cinema, he can also sign up to participate.

However, there is no need for this.

Even without "The Sound of Wind", Hao Yun's "Bullfighting" and "Little Forest" were also highly favored to win awards.

"Bullfight" won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.

Although the value of this award is not particularly high at the Cannes International Film Festival, looking at the Chinese-language film industry, there are not many who can win this award.

Even though "Little Forest" does not have particularly profound connotations, its style is very different from conventional movies, and this difference is precisely the plus point for winning the award.

"The names of those two awards must be changed back. It's just a one-time joke." Li An didn't really want to be a lobbyist, but there weren't many people in Taiwan who could speak to the outside world.

Edward Yang passed away in June.

As for the current Golden Horse Award winner Jiao Xiongping, who is said to be the godmother of Taiwanese films, she is actually just a fool.

In the end, Li An had to help clean up the mess.

After all, Jiao Xiongping was also the producer of his "The Ring" and helped him do a lot of things.

Moreover, although Li An has already stepped onto the international stage, he still has Taiwanese films in his heart.

In his opinion, the only way out for Taiwanese films is the mainland.

If mainland filmmakers don't come, it won't take long, just three to five years, for no one to pay attention to the Golden Horse Awards.

Rely on Hong Kong filmmakers?
But forget it, they can't even protect themselves.

Therefore, this year we must try our best to allow more people from the mainland to participate in the Golden Horse Awards.

Li An is working hard on this matter now.

In mainland China, you can't ask whether you can participate in this year's Golden Horse Awards, and no one will answer you. They will only say that you can always participate in the Golden Horse Awards, and there has never been a ban on anyone participating in the Golden Horse Awards.

So, someone needs to take the lead.

If the leader is fine, then everyone can join in.

Looking at the mainland films this year, "Bullfighting", "The Legend of Mir", "Return of the Leaves", "Little Forest", "Blind Mountain", "Tuya's Marriage" and so on are more suitable for the Golden Horse Awards.

Hao Yun alone occupied two of them.

Moreover, Hao Yun is also the music producer of the Olympic Committee, which gives him a semi-official status.

If he could participate in the Golden Horse Awards, many things would be easier.

"What do you think about the Golden Horse Awards this year?"

Seeing that Hao Yun did not express his opinion, Li An could only test him further. He felt powerless in front of Hao Yun, so he gave up trying to deceive him.

"No, no, haha, your new movie is coming out, I don't dare to have any ideas." Hao Yun waved his hands repeatedly, with a humble attitude of "Your Excellency is a great talent, we all have to stay away from you."

Li An was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he couldn't say that his "The Ring" would be withdrawn from the Golden Horse Awards.

He himself doesn't care, he has won enough awards.

But the reasons why other people participated in his pornographic film are obvious.

"You are also a frequent participant of the Golden Horse Awards. None of us has any advantage over the other, especially Huang Bo. His acting skills are very good. It would be a pity if he did not participate in the Golden Horse Awards." Although Li An did not plan to withdraw from the Golden Horse Awards, he could exchange interests with Hao Yun.

Vanity Fair is a game.

It’s just that most people are just supporting roles, and only a few are real chess players.

If it weren't for the purpose of resolving the crisis of the Golden Horse Awards, Li An didn't think Hao Yun was qualified to share the Golden Horse Awards with him.

"Yeah, it's a pity for Huang Bo. If it were a few years ago, he would definitely have won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor." Hao Yun also sighed.

The two of them expressed their feelings and then burst into laughter.

"I know you're in a difficult situation, but you are all blood relatives after all. Even if your bones are broken, your tendons are still connected, don't you think?" Li An had just explained the reason to him, and now he was appealing to his emotions.

But is this appropriate to say?

Hao Yun was a little disapproving. These two film directors really think they are so important.

And you really think that's all you want.

After a while of perfunctory conversation, the two of them reached a tacit understanding on some issues.

First of all, Hao Yun cannot guarantee to participate in the Golden Horse Awards.

He would try to determine whether he could attend.

If he can, then he will sign up.

If not, the Golden Horse Awards should not take this low-level route and think of other ways.

Secondly, if Hao Yun takes the lead in participating.

So this year's Golden Horse Awards should not treat him and his works unfairly.

The Golden Horse Awards must demonstrate an inclusive attitude.

In the end, Hao Yun’s words almost scared Li An to death.

"Do you think a film like Jinling can be shown in Taiwan?"

Hao Yun said something on a whim.

Li An suddenly started coughing violently.

“If The Ring can be shown in mainland China, why can’t Jinling be shown in Taiwan? Everyone should show an attitude of tolerance…”

Hao Yun muttered something and sent Li An away.

"I'm going back too!" An Xiaoxi hurried away with the ticket.

Hao Yun looked at the ticket in his hand for a while, then got up and went to find Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen arrived a few days in advance. His film "The Sun" was shortlisted for the main competition unit and was in direct competition with Li An's "The Ring".

"Attend the Golden Horse Awards. You can go or not." Jiang Wen didn't have any objection.

He doesn't care about this kind of formality.

After all, the Golden Horse Awards changed Formosa back.

This is called correcting mistakes as soon as you realize them.

Hao Yun discussed the details with Jiang Wen, including some private transactions between him and Li An.

"You want "Jinling" to be shown in Taiwan?"

Jiang Wen was shocked. He never knew his disciple had such huge ambitions.

"We have to give it a try. I also want to release 'Jinling' in Neon." Hao Yun and Li An were not joking when they mentioned this. No one should joke about such things.

"If he can push for the release of 'Jinling' in Taiwan, it's not impossible for him to sign up for the competition." Both of them laughed.

Hao Yun took An Xiaoxi to see "The Ring" in the afternoon.

An Xiaoxi, who was once invited to play the leading role in "Sex and the Ring", stepped onto the red carpet of the premiere of "Sex and the Ring" wearing a light red long dress.

Hao Yun, a Chinese director who is very familiar to foreign media, also kept the photographers busy.

Hao Yun has won awards in Cannes and Berlin, but never in Venice.

Marco Muller, a member of the Venice Film Festival, extended his hand to Hao Yun on the red carpet. He is a member of the film festival, and Zhang Yimou is a member of the jury.

He is a complete expert on China and went to study in China in the 70s.

In June 77, Marco Mueller saw The Red Detachment of Women directed by Xie Jin at the school's open-air cinema, and from then on he truly fell in love with Director Xie Jin and Chinese films.

During that period, he also watched many old movies from the Republic of China period, such as "The Goddess", "Crossroads", and "Songstress of the End of the World".

At the same time, his understanding of Chinese society in reality also made him feel a sense of identification with the works that the fifth generation of Chinese filmmakers first presented to the world.

I heard that Hao Yun’s "Bullfighting" would participate in the Venice Film Festival, but later it went to the Cannes Film Festival, which made Uncle Muller very unhappy.

He really wanted to meet this new Chinese film star.

From this perspective, Hao Yun has indeed made his own mark in the international film scene and is no longer a newcomer that few people pay attention to.

Otherwise, Marco Muller would not know who Hao Yun is.

In fact, for directors born in the 1980s, Hao Yun is the only one in the world to reach his level.

It’s just that similar geniuses often appear, and many of them die young. Everyone is still waiting to see whether Hao Yun will suddenly fall one day.

There are many ways in which young people can fall.

Drinking, reading, racing, talking about girlfriends, etc.

When Marco Mueller was communicating with Zhang Yimou, he mentioned Hao Yun, a young Chinese director, many times.

Zhang Yimou has complicated feelings towards Hao Yun.

It’s not that he doesn’t admire Hao Yun, but Jiang Wen always shows off Hao Yun, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you, Mr. Zhu Xi, please come in."

Hao Yun was pulled together for a group photo, and allowed domestic and foreign media to take pictures.

I feel that today’s premiere of “The Ring” will not be much worse than the lineup of the opening ceremony.

Apparently, everyone likes watching porn.

After entering, Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi found a seat and sat down.

"Ahem, have you ever... seen, um, a similar movie before?" Hao Yun didn't know how to ask.

"I've seen some of it..." An Xiaoxi was a little embarrassed.

But she is already twenty years old. Isn't it normal for her to have seen some things?

Even if you want to learn acting, there are some things you still have to learn.

"This is rated NC-17 on Miguo. What you're watching today must be the full version, which will be more explicit. If you don't like it, just wear sunglasses. Even if you close your eyes, no one will know."

Hao Yun kept nagging, and he felt that An Xiaoxi was implicated by him.

He is not a popular person, and he has helped An Xiaoxi reject Li An several times. If the old guy didn't have something to ask of him, he would definitely not be so attentive.

In addition, Hao Yun also suspected that he gave the two tickets to watch the movie with the intention of showing off, and wanted An Xiaoxi to regret not starring in such a good movie.

"I want to see..." An Xiaoxi rejected Hao Yun's kindness.

She was really curious about what the movie was made of.

If it hadn't been rejected...

After the movie started, it was normal at the beginning, but then the plot gradually showed up which destroyed your worldview.

This is black...

However, Tang Wei acted very devotedly in the performance. For the sake of "art", he was not only shameless, but also lost his bottom line.

It’s crazy to want to be famous!

If Tang Wei's first time was still covered up, the following scenes were really...

Yeah, it's true.

Hao Yun was stunned.

How the hell did this pass the review?
After the movie was over, Hao Yun's mind was still in a mess. He had thought that this movie would be very challenging to his nerves, but he never expected it to be to this extent.

Why can I pass?

Who gave it to him?

"Or just leave and not give Li An face."

"Then are you going to continue to be a traitor? This is Venice, you are not just representing yourself."

"Don't do things that are not in line with your status. The rules are made by powerful people. People without power can only abide by them. Otherwise, you will be suppressed by all the rule makers. Even your parents will not like you because they are also the rule makers."

"Don't even think about looking for Chen Xingliang. If he doesn't follow the rules, he would have lost his position as a professor long ago."

"Zhang Yimou is watching too, Jiang Wen is watching too, what did they say?"

"We are too weak. Our voices can't even be heard two miles away."

"It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Wait until we can make a sound. If we say it is black, then it is black."

"Come on, come on, let's discuss how to develop."

On the stage, Li An brought the seemingly innocent Tang Wei to accept congratulations from the media, congratulating her on finally becoming famous by stripping off her clothes.

However, An Xiaoxi found that Hao Yun's arm was trembling slightly and his face looked a little ugly.

Although she didn't understand why, she still held Hao Yun's hand.

Hao Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and after some inner struggle, he finally recognized the reality he was facing.

I was born in the countryside, and there wasn't even a craftsman in my previous generations. What can I use to reason with others? Reasoning doesn't just depend on words.

Look at Wei Zongwan and learn from Sima Yi.

However, he did not let go of An Xiaoxi's hand. Compared with Tang Wei, he felt that An Xiaoxi, a girl whom he had watched "grow up", was more reliable.

Thinking about the fact that Li An had invited An Xiaoxi to star in this crappy movie, he felt so angry that his teeth were itching.

You old thief, you'd better die before I get angry, otherwise don't blame me for ruining your reputation in the future.

After the premiere, looking at Li An who was surrounded by people, Hao Yun did not go over to him, but went out to play with An Xiaoxi.

Fewer people know them here.

But there are still many mainland media.

Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi were spotted together twice. They said calmly that they were here to attend the film festival and had made an appointment to have dinner with French filmmakers. They were now preparing to go to the appointment.

In this case, it cannot be said that the two are dating.

Hao Yun certainly did not forget the purpose of his visit. He had a pleasant chat with Marco Mueller, the chairman of the Venice Film Festival. The old man enthusiastically helped arrange two screenings.

The first show was right after Jiang Wen’s “The Sun Also Rises”.

"The Sun Also Rises" is the premiere of the film festival.

In this way, guests and overseas film producers who have watched Jiang Wen’s film can stay and watch it.

Hao Yun participated in "The Sun Also Rises" and walked the red carpet as a main creator and attended the premiere of "The Sun".

However, after watching the movie, Hao Yun wanted to complain about Jiang Wen.

This movie is already hard to understand, why do you add fuel to the fire and make it even more difficult to understand?

Do you have a grudge against the audience?
Or do you think Zhang Yimou will give you face and let you win the award over Li An?

Zhang Yimou and Li An have a mutually needy relationship - Li An is obviously doing better in Hollywood than Zhang Yimou.

Zhang Yimou never gave up on going out and gaining recognition from Hollywood like Li An.

And apart from friendship, what else can you, Jiang Wen, do for Zhang Yi?

In fact, Jiang Wen sometimes doesn’t see things as clearly as Hao Yun because his thinking is too narrow.

Also a little willful and arrogant.

After the movie screening, Hao Yun also stood on the stage for media interviews.

When answering questions from the media, Hao Yun was asked what he thought of the movie.

He is also a director, so it is normal for him to be asked such questions.

"This is a film with Jiang Wen's characteristics. I participated in the whole process of this film and learned a lot from him. I am very grateful to him.

I wrote a paper not long ago, which will probably be published in the Chinese magazine "Film Art" at the end of September. If you are interested, you are welcome to translate and reprint it. "

Hao Yun spoke eloquently and firmly defended his master's reputation.

He definitely wouldn’t say, “I can hardly understand it, so I’m just asking you if you believe it.”

He also didn't believe that those foreigners could understand it.

At least not completely.

After the premiere of "The Sun", this screening hall has not arranged any more premieres, and there are not so many movies premiering all day long. The next ones are films that are exhibited but not involved in the awards.

This is the case with Hao Yun's "Little Forest".

Since it is not a premiere, there will be no premiere ceremony.

However, after the premiere of "The Sun", Jiang Wen invited many people to show his support.

Sometimes he cares more about his apprentice's movies than his own.

He has watched "Little Forest" for the third time.

I went to see it for the first time on the first day it was released.

The second time, everyone said that the movie hid a lot of things about the director and was not as healing as rumored, so Jiang Wen went to watch it again.

Now it’s the third time.

There were many domestic and foreign media, film critics, and overseas film distributors at the scene, and they all applauded after the film was finished.

The foreigners applauded especially enthusiastically.

Damn, I finally understand it.

This thing is much easier to understand than "The Sun Also Rises".
