Huayu: Everyone's been reborn, who's still going to be an actor?

"what!"

Liu Yifei exclaimed in surprise. Liu Xiaoli, who was walking to the door, turned around and looked over in astonishment.

"Another award! The Grand Jury Prize and two Silver Bears!"

Liu Yifei was overjoyed, even happier than if she had won an award herself.

Liu Xiaoli was shocked to learn that Cheng Yuan's film had won two Silver Bears at the Berlin Film Festival.

That's impressive.

But is my daughter being too happy?

Not right.

Lu Chuan was completely stunned.

He finally managed to fix things, only to be dealt another cruel blow.

How am I supposed to make amends for this?

Is it fortunate that they only won the Jury Prize and not the Golden Bear?

Isn't that just fooling yourself?

Why should I?!

What makes him so awesome?!

Why is he so awesome?

How old is he?

If Cheng Yuan knew his doubts, he might have laughed and given the answer: I cheated.

Lu Chuan broke down; he slumped into his chair in front of the computer, as if he had lost his soul.

That's so discouraging.

At this moment, Cheng Yuan had already stood up, straightened his clothes, and then went up on stage.

After Jafar Panahi excitedly delivered his acceptance speech, Cheng Yuan stepped forward.

"Thanks!"

"Thank you to the jury for recognizing 'The Distinguished Citizen.' Thank you..."

"This is my third film. For the previous two, the actors were the ones accepting awards. When Li Xuejian came on stage just now, I thought I wouldn't have another chance to go up there, but there was a surprise! I was even thinking about whether I should direct and star in my next film; that might increase my chances of getting an award..."

"grateful......"

Cheng Yuan expressed his gratitude again before stepping down from the podium.

Just like in the previous life, the Golden Bear award was ultimately won by "Grbavica".

Some media outlets say that this film's award win was a surprise.

"The Distinguished Citizen" won two Silver Bears, both of which are quite prestigious, so it was a worthwhile trip.

After the awards ceremony ended, Cheng Yuan was surrounded by the media.

This time, Cheng Yuan did not evade the question.

"Director Cheng's film 'The Distinguished Citizen' won two Silver Bears: Best Actor and the Jury Prize. What are your thoughts?"

The first question was easy; Cheng Yuan simply replied with a formulaic "thank you."

"Director Cheng, some people say that your film 'The Distinguished Citizen' is mocking the fifth and sixth generation of Chinese directors. Is that true?"

This second question is a bit more serious.

"Who said that?"

Cheng Yuan didn't answer, but instead asked a question in return.

The reporter didn't answer, but just looked at Cheng Yuan.

who said it?

Of course, this refers to some people who have seen the movie.

As for who it is, that's not important; what's important is that someone said it.

Anyway, this reporter will not admit that I said it.

"My film doesn't satirize anyone, especially not the Fifth or Sixth Generation directors," Cheng Yuan said. "Don't spread rumors. Director Tian Zhuangzhuang is one of the representatives of the Fifth Generation directors. I'm graduating from university this year and I'm going to study for my master's degree under him. Don't ruin my academic journey!"

Cheng Yuan would definitely not admit it.

I would never admit it, even if you beat me to death.

But if anyone wants to take it personally, there's nothing we can do about it.

However, those who criticized Cheng Yuan before will probably use this to attack him.

He doesn't care either.

Upon hearing this, the reporters suddenly realized that Cheng Yuan was only a senior in college.

A senior student at Beijing Film Academy has won three international Best Actor awards for three films and also won a Jury Prize himself.

That would be second only to the Golden Bear.

That's impressive.

The media reporters asked some tricky questions, which Cheng Yuan handled all of them.

Is this a difficult question to answer?

Then just play dumb, it's that simple.

Do you really think Cheng Yuan is so naive and easily fooled just because he's in an ivory tower?

After dealing with the reporters, Cheng Yuan went straight back to his hotel to sleep after attending the banquet.

Meanwhile, the lights were already on in China.

When Huang Sanshi arrived at school early this morning and saw students holding banners again, a thought struck him.

No way?

Did that kid from Lao Wang's class win another award at the Berlin Film Festival?

He was naturally aware that "Distinguished Citizen" had been shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival.

"What kind of banner are you putting up?"

Huang Sanshi quickly stepped forward and asked.

"Teacher Huang."

"Teacher Huang."

"Cheng Yuan's film 'The Distinguished Citizen' won the Jury Prize and the Best Actor Award at the Berlin Film Festival."

"The Distinguished Citizen won two Silver Bear awards at the Berlin Film Festival."

......

The students holding the banner took turns explaining the situation.

Huang Sanshi was a little stunned, then looked at the banner that had already been unfurled.

"Warmly congratulate Cheng Yuan, a senior student at our school, on winning the Jury Prize and Best Actor Award at the Berlin International Film Festival for his film 'The Distinguished Citizen'."

"Warmest congratulations to our school's senior acting students for winning two Silver Bears at the Berlin Film Festival for their self-written and directed film, 'The Distinguished Citizen'!"

......

They won another award, and this time it was a double silver bear.

The Jury Prize is second only to the Golden Bear.

There is also a Best Actor award.

and many more!

Best Actor?

Has Cheng Yuan produced another international film star?

These three movies alone have covered all three major European film festivals.

Is it that amazing?

No, I need to go and reconnect with Old Wang.

I, Huang Sanshi, also have acting skills.

We can't let outsiders benefit from such opportunities in the future.

Jiang Wen goes without saying; he's from the Central Academy of Drama.

A competitor.

Li Xuejian is from the Air Force Political Department Art Troupe, not the Beijing Film Academy.

The Beijing Film Academy could produce another international Best Actor.

Why wasn't that person me, Huang Sanshi?

Huang Sanshi ran to Wang Jinsong's office, where there were already quite a few people.

I'm so envious.

It's really something when a great director comes from our class.

The key point is that the director even made him an international film star.

He has a place in the school's future leadership.

Jealousy.

Why can't my class produce such a genius?

Cinematography produces directors, literature produces directors, even management produces directors, so why shouldn't the acting department produce directors in their own class?

Why Old Wang?

Is it because of his high hairline?

"Old Wang, we used to be classmates, now we're colleagues. Your class has produced such a talented person, when are you going to introduce us?" Huang Sanshi said. "I also want to win an international Best Actor award."

"Sure, sure," Wang Jinsong said. "But who wouldn't want to win an international Best Actor award? I want to win one too."

"Didn't you already win it?" Huang Sanshi said. "Cannes Film Festival Best Actor."

"Who would complain about having too much of this stuff?" Wang Jinsong said. "Besides, I can't decide his casting. As for knowing him? Didn't you already know each other?"

Huang Sanshi was speechless. He knew Cheng Yuan, but they weren't close.

Did he know that Cheng Yuan would bring Wang Jingsong some local specialties from his hometown every time he returned? Although they weren't worth much money, they were very meaningful.

Let alone having such a big director bring a gift, I, Huang Sanshi, can give him a gift.

"Actually, it's more useful for you to talk to Director Tian than to me," Wang Jingsong said, glancing at Huang Sanshi. "He's about to go to Director Tian's place to pursue his graduate studies."

"He actually went on to graduate school."

Huang Sanshi was somewhat surprised, after all, Cheng Yuan was now definitely a big director.

If he can prove himself at the box office, Feng Xiaogang's position as one of the three great directors will be in jeopardy.
