Huayu Entertainment: You have been directing for three generations, are you comparing your qualifica

Chapter 177 Fan Binbin is petty and ruthlessly tramples on Zhao Yanzi!

28 number.

The 14th Capital College Student Film Festival held its awards ceremony at Beijing Normal University.

Tian Xiaole set off right on time, arriving at the auditorium just as the red carpet event was reaching its climax.

Chen Kun, dressed in a white suit, waved frequently to the fans around him, eliciting screams and shouts.

Upon closer listening, everyone was calling for Kun Kun.

Guided by staff, Tian Xiaole arrived at the waiting area, where a group of people from the industry gathered around to greet him.

Suddenly, Tian Xiaole's eyes lit up as Fan Binbin appeared in her field of vision, wearing a deep V-neck leopard print dress that clashed with her own temperament.

She has a voluptuous figure with a deep cleavage and a graceful, swaying posture.

The actors surrounding Tian Xiaole automatically made way for Fan Binbin and tactfully left.

"Director Tian, ​​how do I look in this outfit?"

"The clothes are ugly, too white and too big."

Tian Xiaole said truthfully, glancing at it before looking away.

Fan Binbin ignored the clothes and was very satisfied with the compliment on her figure.

He adjusted his belt.
Showcase your capital!

"Why aren't you filming properly on set? Why are you here attending an awards ceremony?" Tian Xiaole asked coldly.

The film "Painted Skin" was already delayed, and the female lead is constantly on the move, making it seem like filming is a long way off.

Seeing that Tian Xiaole was a little unhappy, Fan Binbin quickly explained:

"After some unprofessional people left, Professor Tian adjusted the shooting order to give Sister Yan enough time to understand the script, which is why I took leave to come."

After saying that, Fan Binbin looked provocatively into the distance.

Following the gaze, Zhao Yanzi, wearing a black off-shoulder dress, walked out of the waiting area with a dark expression.

Tian Xiaole chuckled to himself; this woman was quite petty.

Seeing the person approaching, Tian Xiaole didn't dare to be presumptuous and took the initiative to greet them:

"Hello, Teacher Feng, I am Tian Xiaole."

"Haha, I've heard so much about you for a long time."

Feng Gong held Tian Xiaole's hand, revealing his standard smile. Yan Ni, who was behind him, secretly winked.

"You flatter me, Professor Feng. I wish you a fruitful night."

"Then I'll take your good wishes, haha."

Feng Gong is a talkative person. When talking about his film debut, he said he would learn a lot from Tian Xiaole.

The staff reminded them, "Don't treat the masses like they're not important," that it was time for the film crew to walk the red carpet, and then they said goodbye and left.

"Director Tian, ​​I am actor Liang Jiahui. I hope to have the opportunity to work with you."

Many films from Hong Kong Island participated in the Student Film Festival, and the organizing committee set up a special award for the Most Popular Hong Kong Island Actor. Leung Ka-fai was nominated for his role in "My Teacher's Life".

"Mr. Leung is known as the versatile actor. He will definitely seek you out for a suitable role."

Among Hong Kong actors, there aren't many who can win over Tin Siu-lok, but Leung Ka-fai is definitely one of them.

Early in his career, he starred in "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" and "The Empress Dowager", becoming one of the first films to be shot on location in mainland China.

At that time, the largest market on Hong Kong Island was Taiwan, and actors were not allowed to film on the mainland from there.

When asked to write a letter of repentance and apology, Leung Ka-fai directly confronted him, declaring that he did not need to apologize to anyone while filming in his own country.

Hong Kong film companies, considering box office performance, dared not use him, thus interrupting his acting career for two years.

The two exchanged contact information.

"Director Tian, ​​it's our turn."

Fan Binbin whispered a reminder, while taking Tian Xiaole's hand and acting as her red carpet companion.

On the red carpet, you could hear deafening shouts from the fans around you, all calling out Fan Binbin's name.

"Wow, Sister Binbin is really popular!" Tian Xiaole joked with a smile.

"It's all thanks to you, Director Tian."

Fan Binbin smiled and waved to the fans on the side.

The red carpet host was Yao Miao, the sixth princess.

"Director Tian, ​​you are the presenter tonight. Which film do you think deserves to win Best Feature Film?"

"I'm optimistic about [Extreme Pro].

Tian Xiaole said without hesitation, and then added, "Because I wrote the script."

"By the way, Binbin, what are your thoughts on winning the Most Popular Actress award?"

This award was decided by online voting, so I knew about it well in advance.

"To be honest, I didn't expect to win the award."

Fan Binbin's words made Tian Xiaole look at her sideways; this was not like her usual style.

Sure enough, she continued:

"Because I've been filming on set with the movie 'Painted Skin,' I haven't had time to campaign for votes, let alone spend money to buy them, so it's quite a surprise."

Oops.

It turned out to be waiting here.

Fan Binbin seized the opportunity to kick Zhao Yanzi while she was down, still holding a grudge about kicking her chair.

If things continue like this, Zhao Yanzi will probably never appear again, no matter where Fan Binbin is.

In front of the autograph wall, Tian Xiaole heard the red carpet introductions, and then Ning Hao and the crew of "Extreme Job" walked up.

Although it was said to be the film crew, only Ning Hao and Fan Wei walked the red carpet.

Yao Miao still stopped him for an interview.

Tian Xiaole did not rush into the venue and waited at the entrance for a while.

"Xiao Le, Director Tian."

"Haozi, Teacher Fan Wei."

"Director Ning, Professor Fan Wei."

The four met up, greeted each other, and headed towards the venue.

"Haozi, don't come home empty-handed tonight," Tian Xiaole joked.

"Oh, I really envy you, you've been nominated for the Cannes Film Festival again."

Ning Hao said enviously, then started complaining:
"I want a prestigious award, why is it so hard? I don't even dare to dream of your Silver Bear, at least give me a Golden Rooster or Golden Horse."

"Keep your voice down, or people will say you look down on the College Student Film Festival."

Tian Xiaole told Ning Hao to shut his mouth immediately.

Although it was a college student film festival, the awards ceremony was star-studded.

Tian Xiaole was an award presenter, but his seat was near the front, in the middle of the second row. A quick glance revealed a string of renowned directors: Feng Xiaogang, Wang Quan'an, Chen Kexin, Ning Hao…

The people in the front row were unfamiliar faces; judging from their attire, they were probably leaders within the system.

The awards ceremony has officially begun.

First, Huang Linhui, the chairman of the organizing committee and also the founder of the College Student Film Festival, gave a speech.

Leung Ka-fai is the most popular male actor from Hong Kong Island among university students.

The most popular directors among college students are Feng Gong and Xu Jinglei.

Fan Binbin is widely recognized as the most popular actress among college students.

She stood in front of the microphone, raised the gilded trophy, and began to deliver her acceptance speech.

"I'm very lucky to have been liked by college students. I was surprised when I heard the news on the set of 'Painted Skin' because I was far behind when the voting was about to end."

Everyone online says you can buy tickets for this award, but I didn't spend a single penny..."

Tian Xiaole noticed that Zhao Yanzi, who was not far away, had a dark face, even though she had been far ahead in the votes.

Now, Fan Binbin has publicly exposed her, seemingly trying to confirm her suspicion of ticket rigging. Chen Kun won the Most Popular Actor award.

On stage, he refuted Fan Binbin's earlier statement, because he was also suspected of buying tickets.

"---There are rumors online that votes can be bought for 50 yuan. How can anyone believe such fake news? College students are not so easily bribed."

A staff member came over and called Tian Xiaole to go backstage to prepare.

Many people saw him follow the staff backstage and guessed what was going on.

Ning Hao craned his neck to look over.

The backstage area was bustling with activity.

Someone handed Tian Xiaole a letter, saying it was specially arranged for him.

On the awards stage, the awards for Best Newcomer, Best Actor, and Best Actress were presented one after another.

At this moment, Tian Xiaole was already standing at the entrance of the stage.

After listening to the host's introduction, he walked onto the stage.

I've been to award ceremonies many times, but this one was the most relaxing because I was there to present awards.

"The next award to be presented is the Best Director Award, which will be presented by director Tian Xiaole. Welcome him."

The applause in the hall was very enthusiastic. Apart from the guests, the audience consisted of a group of college students.

Whether it's Tian Xiaole's refusal to use Hong Kong actors or his success in Hollywood, it all suits the tastes of these college students.

"Thank you to the organizers for inviting me to be an award presenter. I'd also like to take this opportunity to promote the film I co-invested in and produced, [Ip Man 2]..."

Tian Xiaole certainly wouldn't let such a promotional opportunity pass by, especially since the movie suited the tastes of these college students.

"In addition to promoting traditional Chinese martial arts, Ip Man also conveys a strong sense of patriotism and continues the visceral thrill of its predecessor. This film is definitely worth seeing in theaters."

After Tian Xiaole finished making the recommendation, she opened the letter, which contained a folded card.

"Without further ado, let's get to the point."

After saying that, he opened the card, and the winner's name was the same as he had guessed.

The Best Director award goes to: Ning Hao, director of "Extreme Job". Congratulations!

Ning Hao was prepared; he got up from his seat and buttoned up his suit jacket.

This is his second time winning this award; the first time was for "Crazy Stone".

Tian Xiaole took the trophy and certificate from the hostess's tray, handed them to Ning Hao, and whispered.

"Haozi, congratulations."

"Oh, thank you."

Ning Hao's smile was forced.

Thinking about what I said on the red carpet, I felt relieved.

This is an attempt to break into mainstream film festivals.

Ning Hao stood in front of the microphone, first offering the usual thanks, then turned to look at Tian Xiaole.

"Thank you to director Tian Xiaole. He is the screenwriter of 'Extreme Job' and also the film's investor. It was his investment and his decision to let me direct the sequel to the hit movie 'Crazy Stone' that made me able to stand here to receive this award twice."

After Ning Hao finished speaking, he raised the trophy in his hand and looked back at Tian Xiaole again.

I think he deserves half the credit for this award.

I'm still a little unaccustomed to Ning Hao's sudden heartfelt thanks.

Tian Xiaole stepped forward and took the microphone: "Director Ning Hao's talent is obvious to all audiences. It's only a matter of time before he makes a name for himself in the film industry."

Applause erupted from the audience. The friendship between the two was the envy of many. Tian Xiaole had a keen eye for talent, and Ning Hao lived up to expectations.

The Best Feature Film award goes to [The Knot]!
The awards ceremony has now concluded.

That evening, the news appeared on major websites.

The topic of Tian Xiaole, the talent scout, awarding Ning Hao the prize for his outstanding talent is still widely discussed.

Fan Binbin's acceptance speech also sparked heated discussions among netizens.

···
After the awards ceremony, Ning Hao went to have a late-night snack with Tian Xiaole.

However, they couldn't find the person, and they couldn't get through on the phone.

Meanwhile, Tian Xiaole was talking with Fan Binbin at a hotel.

"Brother Le, do I have a chance to win Best Actress at a Category A film festival?"

"That's not up to me; it's up to you." "Up to me? What do you mean?"

"Of course it depends on your acting skills, otherwise even the best script will be useless." Tian Xiaole didn't have time to say anything else.

the next day.

Fan Binbin left with a rosy complexion and radiant spirits, hurrying back to the "Painted Skin" film set.

Universal Pictures has announced some of the casting results, with Jet Li set to play the villainous Dragon Emperor in "The Mummy 3".

Michelle Yeoh won the role of the wise woman by beating Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi with her outstanding performance in "The Sun Crisis".

Meanwhile, the filming location will be the Terracotta Army, and the necessary permits have been obtained from the relevant authorities in accordance with regulations.

The news has spread, and some netizens are already boycotting and criticizing it.

The Dragon Emperor is a major villain, and now they're going to film at the Terracotta Army. The character's prototype is definitely Qin Shi Huang.

Whether it's a tyrant or a supreme emperor, we can criticize them ourselves, but when they're portrayed as villains in foreign movies, we don't know how to portray them.

The online criticism did not affect the production team, and Universal Pictures extended audition invitations to a few actresses from mainland China.

In the afternoon, Tian Xiaole arrived at the company, supporting her back, and Chen Zhixi came over with an invitation.

"Director Tian, ​​Universal Music has sent an invitation to Tang Yan to audition for the role of the tomb keeper."

"Let's decline. The role is too minor and won't be of much help to Tang Yan. Besides, filming for the [Museum] project is about to start."

Tian Xiaole thought for a moment and realized she didn't have much of an impression of the role. Besides, there was a lot of criticism going on outside, which wasn't good for the actor's image.

"Okay, I'll get back to them right away."

Just one day later, news of the actor's refusal spread online.

Not only did Tang Yan decline the offer, but Liu Yifei, who was immediately filming "The Forbidden Kingdom," also declined the audition invitation.

A large number of actresses in the industry, besides feeling envious, seemed to see hope.

The Mummy is a globally bestselling film series. The two actors looked down on this small role, but it was a rare opportunity for the other actors.

Chen Zhixi gave a media interview on behalf of Tang Yan.

"Tangtang is currently preparing for the female lead roles in two movies, 'The Eight Hundred' and 'Night at the Museum,' and couldn't find the time to audition, so it's a pity we couldn't work together..."

Seeing the news reports about female celebrities in the industry made me even more anxious.

Aside from envy, I'm almost starting to hate them.

By associating with Tian Xiaole, she has played leading roles since her debut.

With Hollywood projects in hand, it's perfectly reasonable for him to turn down such minor supporting roles.

Han Sanping is having a bit of a headache lately. He put all the imported films in the same month, and the producers have filed a complaint with the WTO, saying that he is undermining cultural exchanges between the two countries.

In May, Spider-Man 3 was released, achieving a situation where it was universally popular.

Tian Xiaole specifically checked the box office: 1520 million yuan on the opening day, breaking the record for imported films.

Even with insufficient copies and limited scheduling, the problem persists.

Based on the current box office trend, only other imported films can suppress it.

Many film industry insiders applauded and cheered, believing that if such screenings were to happen more often, imported films would be forced to fight amongst themselves.

James sent an email saying that "The Purge" had been released, and Lionsgate, just to be on the safe side, would only release it on a little over a thousand screens on opening day.

This kind of publicity didn't meet Tian Xiaole's requirements. Given that his name is listed as the screenwriter, he shouldn't have been so conservative.

He replied to James, telling him to keep an eye on the Lionsgate and increase their issuance.

This is Ning Hao's first time leading a project, and the pre-production preparation took a bit longer. The cast for "Crazy Racer" has been announced.
