Perfect Life

Li Qian came back with a pinch.

After he slipped back to his seat and sat down, he said a few words to Fu Xuelong and Qin Jingjing each, and the movie was over.

On the big screen, full of blood red, a childish voice was singing the ballad.

"Mother, mother, go to the southwest, the wide road, the long treasure ship..."

Even Li Qian had time to see his stunned look on the blood-red screen.

Looking back now, I will feel that at that time, because of deliberate exercise and makeup, when I was naked on the upper body, I really looked so majestic!

The drum sounded, and in the blood red of the solar eclipse, the sorghum that had been swallowed up by the red swayed with the wind.

Suona up.

On the screen, the sorghum swayed, the suona sounded mournful, and the subtitles appeared.

The premiere of "Red Sorghum" is over.

Qin Jingjing subconsciously turned her head and glanced at the auditorium in the back row.

The audience didn't respond.

She drew back, a little apprehensive and a little worried.

But it turned out that her worries were completely unnecessary.

Because soon, when the suona sound stopped, the big screen was completely darkened, and there was almost only a dark interval of one or two seconds, and then the applause sounded.

And, getting louder and louder.

At this time, Li Qian also half turned and glanced behind.

It was pitch black and nothing could be seen.

Half a minute later, the applause was still ringing, and the lights were already on.

John Days came over from the second row, grabbed Li Qian, his eyes shone behind his glasses, pulled him, and whispered, "Stand up, Qian, you should stand up and accept the applause!"

Li Qian froze for a moment, stood up, folded his hands subconsciously, and nodded to the audience.

Beside him, Qin Jingjing and Fu Xuelong, the two main creators, were stunned for a moment, and then they all stood up, imitating Li Qian's appearance, standing on both sides of him, smiling and nodding to the audience.

Many people know that Li Qian is the home of the four beauties, but many people don't know it in advance, but at this moment, everyone just watched the movie, of course, they all know that he is the sturdy guy in that movie.

The applause suddenly became much louder.

It may sound like a long story, but in fact it only takes a minute or two.

In China, as a film director, Li Qian, after all, has two big-selling films, "My Sassy Girl" and "Once Upon a Time", he should be regarded as a director with considerable weight, but in Europe, as a director , he's not even a fart, so he won't be treated like a big-name director.

The film seems to be good, and the audience is quite satisfied with such a peculiar, but full of strong oriental style and peculiar and magnificent use of colors. The male and female protagonists appeared in the front row, and the applause was even more enthusiastic... that's all.

Everyone left soon.

Zhang Zifang said with sincerity and admiration on his face, "Li Qian, you made a great movie! Congratulations!"

Some important film critics and reporters, John Days saw them off with a good laugh, and when they walked to the door, they shook hands with Li Qian, and most of them would say seriously, "Congratulations, you made a great movie. Also, your performance is excellent, and this beautiful lady!"

Then, it's over.

When the people were almost gone, John Days said: "Qian, you surprised me! I can't even believe that a movie with such a style would be made by you! I thought you were a mature man. Commercial director, I didn't expect you to make such a literary film! However, this film is quite amazing! Trust me, you will surprise the Berlin Film Festival!"

Li Qian shrugged.

When he walked away, Qin Jingjing came over and asked, "Is this...is it okay?"

Hearing her words meant she was a little disappointed.

Li Qian turned his head to look at her, "Not bad! Basically, the audience stood up and applauded. As for the rest, wait and see, see how the next few games are, and how the attendance rate is tomorrow, and then, look at this group. What will the European filmmakers say!...Take it easy, don't think too much! As I said before, we just came here to get familiar with each other and have knowledge, so we didn't plan to win the award!"

Qin Jingjing took a deep breath and nodded.

Next is the interview.

Originally, Li Qian didn't want it, but after all, she was shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival. Qi Jie felt resentful in her heart, and finally waited for the opportunity. She repeatedly persuaded Li Qian to accept an interview. In the end, Li Qian had no choice but to agree to let him She helped choose a newspaper, and then everyone made an appointment. After the premiere of the film at the Berlin Film Festival, the people over there have seen the film, and then they can find a place to interview him.

Of course, besides that, Qin Jingjing has more tasks than him.

Although it is not the most topical one in this movie, as the heroine of the movie, she is naturally one of the focuses of the publicity, so although there was no sound before the movie was released, but the movie was released here, and her arrangement began. ——John Days helped her make appointments with several local German newspapers and magazines, and the domestic media sent to report the Berlin Film Festival also made appointments for photos and interviews. Basically, the premiere here is over. It's about to start non-stop for two or three days.

…………

The interview was about lunch time, at a restaurant not far from the hotel where Li Qian and the others were staying.

The other party was already waiting there, and when he saw Li Qian arrived, he stood up to say hello, and when shaking hands, he introduced himself: "Hello, Master Qian, I'm Lin Nansheng, a reporter from Oriental Weekly."

"I've admired the name for a long time! Brother Cao and I, we both highly praise some of your comments!"

"thanks!"

After greeting everyone, sit down.

Lin Nansheng seems to be under forty years old. He wears glasses and is polite. At first glance, he looks like a cultural person, but his face is ordinary. of freelance critics, writers and renowned film critics.

The appointment was to start the interview after lunch, but the two invited the waiter to order the meal, and while waiting for the food to arrive, Lin Nansheng was chatting, but he had already started to ask: "Actually, outside of the interview, what are the preparations? In addition to all the questions, there is one thing I have always been curious about, can you answer it for me?"

Li Qian smiled, made a "please" gesture, and said, "Tell me about it."

Lin Nansheng asked: "You've been out for many years, and you've always been very popular, but you've been a little strange over the years. I don't know if you feel it yourself. You seem to have a special dislike for the media! So, you basically started from No interviews, and never on any TV or radio show, right?"

This question is a bit harsh.

Li Qian smiled and said, "Brother Lin, is it appropriate for us to discuss this topic before the interview?"

Lin Nansheng was stunned for a moment, then hehe laughed.

This is in a restaurant, in a public place, if it is a private place, I'm afraid he will laugh.

Then, he said, "It's fine, just say whatever you want to say. Even if I get angry again, I'll hold back until the interview is over! This is your first media interview over the years!"

Li Qian smiled when he heard the words, thought for a moment seriously, and then replied: "I don't have a good impression, in fact, I really can't talk about it! The main reason is that I think I am very clumsy in words, and I have many flaws in my body. One by one, they are both quick-talking and quick-wielding, so under normal circumstances, I am really reluctant to accept interviews.”

This is to be honest.

Hearing this, Lin Nansheng hesitated for a moment, and seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he still said: "I don't know if I belong to the kind of reporter you think is quick and quick, but, today's interview is only about movies, So, you can rest assured."

Li Qian nodded, "Okay!"

…………

"When I was watching the film just now, I was thinking that this young man is really talented. He will change the style of almost every work, and each style is so unique!"

"Thank you, it's a prize."

"When you came to Berlin to attend the film festival, do you have any expectations for yourself and your "Red Sorghum"?"

"I don't think it can be said about the expectations... The main competition unit, of course, I must have thought about it, but I don't think I need to be obsessed with winning the prize."

"That's why, I also thought about whether I would win the award, but I basically don't have any hope of winning, right?"

Li Qian smiled and nodded, "Almost! That's probably what it means."

Lin Nansheng laughed, "In fact, there are still some good domestic films, but it is true that the three major film festivals in Europe are under a lot of competition pressure. However, I am still optimistic that "Red Sorghum" can be shown in Berlin. The festival has something to gain. Any idea why?"

"why?"

"Because your style and performance in the movie are too groundbreaking for Chinese fans, movie fans, and European movie fans!"

Li Qian smiled, "Can I take this as complimenting me?"

"Of course! That's a compliment!"

After a pause, Lin Nansheng added, "This is a performance I have never seen in Sun Ce in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"! So I want to say that maybe everyone thinks you are a good singer and a gold medalist. The producer is an excellent director, but in my opinion, you are also an excellent actor! I believe that when the film is released in China, it will receive rave reviews!"

"Uh, thank you! . . . Good luck to you!"

…………

After eating for half an hour and interviewing for more than an hour, it seems that there is no in-depth topic exploration in this scene, but in fact, both parties understand why the end of the last-minute interview is already 2:30 in the afternoon.

The two shook hands and said goodbye at the door of the restaurant, and then Li Qian turned back to the cinema.

As a result, he had just returned to the cinema, and Fu Xuelong suddenly came out, almost scaring Li Qian.

Moreover, his expression is indeed quite scary!

"Brother, it's full! Full!"

Li Qian was stunned for a moment.

Fu Xuelong waved his arms excitedly, as if he didn't know how to vent his excitement, he just said over and over again, "It's full! Brother!"

Having said that, he seemed to have recovered his senses, pulled Li Qian up, walked to the ticket office next to him, pointed to the long queue there, and said, "See if you don't, they are all lining up to buy our tickets. !"

Li Qian turned his head and glanced at him, "They all bought our tickets?"

Fu Xuelong nodded.

Li Qian was a little surprised - when he entered the door just now, he actually noticed the long queue over there, but he didn't think of himself at all at that time.

Ordinarily... the premiere has a good attendance rate and a good response, but the problem is that it is only three o'clock in the afternoon, and it's only a few hours before the premiere ends!

Even if you are a god-level word-of-mouth, in such a short time, it is said that the word-of-mouth will not have time to spread!

At this time, John Days suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and when he saw Li Qian standing not far from the entrance of the ticket office, he ran over, also with a look of excitement, and said, "Qian, I just received the news. , Someone scanned our promotional album and uploaded it to the Internet! Now, that post is very popular, it has only been a few hours, and it has already exceeded 10,000 hits!"

Li Qian was surprised.

…………

In another time and space, Zhang Guoshi won the award in 1988.

At that time, the Cold War was not over yet, and the Berlin Film Festival held high political topics, and China was trying hard to return to the global order and participate in global interaction with a positive attitude of reform and opening up.

Then, "Red Sorghum" was a big winner at the Berlin Film Festival.

now what?

Now is another time and space, and the time is already 2003.

"Red Sorghum" is indeed a good film, especially its artistic color is very strong, but Li Qian, who brought this film to Berlin, does not think this film will "fire" in Berlin!

But what is surprising is that although this movie started well, it got better and better after that!

On the day of the premiere, the word of mouth of the movie quickly spread on the Internet because of the fans' attention to Li Qian, which quickly attracted fans from Berlin who saw the post to buy tickets.

On the second day, on the one hand, the word of mouth of the movie was still fermenting on the Internet. On the other hand, the articles of many film critics who had seen the movie were driven out overnight and published in various newspapers or the Internet. On the platform - so, for a while, outside the "Red Sorghum" projection hall, there was a rare line of more than 100 people, nearly 200 people!

Generally, it has to be a top Hollywood star, or a master director who is truly famous throughout Europe, to get this level of popularity at the film festival.

So for a while, I only brought a copy of the crew of "Red Sorghum", which was a little caught off guard.

At this time, John Days also brought back his public relations news: It is said that many judges of this film festival expressed their love for the film "Red Sorghum" from China!

Especially commendable, first, the director's unique color aesthetic lens, "simply addictive", and second, Li Qian, as the lead singer of a band who has become popular in Europe with his handsome appearance and charming singing voice, dedicated himself to the film. "A serious and honest performance"!

Of course, John Days doesn't think "Red Sorghum" will win any amazing awards, but according to him, at least it should not come back empty-handed, and as the film's reputation on the Internet begins to ferment, Now many filmmakers from various European countries have begun to pay attention to this film. Even if it can only win some small awards, this film should be able to be sold in Europe.

Of course, what Li Qian didn't know at this time was that in a hotel in Berlin, the chief reporter of "Oriental Weekly", Lin Nansheng, was tapping the keyboard and writing down his impressions and comments on Li Qian——

"He is actually a shy person, good at creation and artistic expression on the other side. He doesn't like talking very much, and he is a little shy when he laughs... He is very frank. When you chat with him, you will find that he doesn't talk much. And almost every sentence is spoken after careful consideration, but it is very frank..."

And that is at this time, it is more than eight o'clock in the evening in China.

Shuntianfu, Tianyi Film and Television Culture Company.

After Lu Ping finished the promotion and planning of the new movie, he looked back several times and felt quite satisfied, so he turned off the computer and got up, ready to go home.

But before he could leave the office, there was a knock on the door.

After a while, Zhou Zhengyang pushed open the door and came in.

Then Gao Lanlan also came in.

With this posture, Lu Ping knew at a glance that something was wrong.

But he was not in a hurry. He calmly sorted out the documents in his hand, put them away, and then said, "What's the matter? Why did you come to the company at this point?"

Zhou Zhengyang is the CEO of Tianyi Film and Television Culture Company, Lu Ping's sponsor for many years, and Gao Lanlan, as Lu Ping's explorer and leader, has always been his most effective assistant and agent.

At this moment, both of their faces seemed to be a little uneasy.

Zhou Zhengyang asked with a smile, "Have the plans been made?"

Lu Ping nodded, "It's done."

Zhou Zhengyang smiled and said: "Actually, there are people in the company who do things like publicity and planning. You give an idea and let them do it for you. If you do it well, you can modify it as you see it. Why do you have to do it yourself? Do it!"

Lu Ping smiled and said calmly: "This time, I won't let anything go wrong. It's better to do it myself!" After a pause, his eyes swept over Gao Lanlan and Zhou Zhengyang one by one, and smiled: "What happened? Come on, talk about it! Wouldn't it be "Red Sorghum" that won an award in Berlin?"

At this time, a joke from Lu Ping made Zhou Zhengyang and Gao Lanlan laugh at once, and the nervousness just now was relieved a lot.

That's right, it's not an award!

At this time, Gao Lanlan said with some smiles: "According to the news from there, "Red Sorghum" is very popular in Berlin! According to the news sent by several reporters and film critics who reported in the past, that film is indeed a The filming was very good! And it is said that Li Qian's starring is also very hard work! So... Mr. Zhou was a little worried, so he brought me over to ask you, can we think about the release date? Doesn't it have to be screened on their shoulders?"

Lu Ping smiled and lowered his head.

Although "Red Sorghum" was popular at the Berlin Film Festival, he was still a little surprised, but thinking about it again, Li Qian is a graduate of the photography department of the Shuntian Film Academy. He has two brushes. It's too surprising - although he has been making commercial films for the past few years, it may not be that he is completely bad at making literary films!

However, Zhou Zhengyang's lack of confidence in himself still made him extremely angry and dissatisfied!

Yes, in the last head-to-head confrontation, it was true that I lost, and the loser had nothing to say!

But even so, in fact, his last film still made a lot of money for the company! He Zhou Zhengyang said on weekdays that he would support his next film and then touch Li Qian, and he must pick up the face that fell to the ground, but once the critical time comes, the "Red Sorghum" over there has not yet been released. What's the matter, he's so frightened here!

However, he is an investor in his new movie after all. At this time, there is anger. With Lu Ping's current shrewdness and scheming, it will never show on his face.

At this time, I saw him smiling and saying, "Come on, sit down, let's sit down and talk!"

When the three of them sat down, Lu Ping still had that faint but confident smile on his face, and asked Zhou Zhengyang calmly, "Mr. Zhou, do you think "Red Sorghum" can win an award in Berlin? ?"

Zhou Zhengyang was stunned for a moment when he heard the words. He was just about to say where am I going to guess this, but after thinking about it, he shook his head, "It may not be impossible, but the possibility...it's unlikely!"

After a pause, he continued: "Zhang Zifang and Director Zhang have been there three times. There are rumors that this time, even if it is a comfort, it is time to give Director Zhang a decent award. In this case, "Red Sorghum" "The possibility of winning an award is even lower!"

In fact, there are many examples of Chinese films winning awards in Europe, but there is only one Qin Wei who has won important awards in the three major film festivals.

No matter how powerful Li Qian is, in making literary films, there should still be a lot of distance from Qin Wei, right?

Therefore, it may be possible to get some good word of mouth, or even come back with a small consolation prize, but the grand prize should be hopeless!

Lu Ping laughed when he heard the words, and said, "Even if I win the award, so what?"

Zhou Zhengyang was stunned when he heard the words, at this time, Lu Ping continued without waiting for him to speak~www.wuxiaspot.com~, "You all asked me before, why did you have to step on his tail and set the release date? So close! Now, let me answer you! Because, no matter how powerful Li Qian is, even if he is so powerful that he can win the grand prize in Berlin, "Red Sorghum" is a literary film in the final analysis! Therefore, this is an extremely rare event. The chance to beat him at the box office and step on him! We must not miss it!”

Speaking of which, he waved his hand calmly, looking like he was winning, and said with a smile, "We are a commercial film! We invested nearly 40 million in a commercial film!"

This statement is justified.

Zhou Zhengyang nodded slowly when he heard the words, and after a while, he asked, "Are you sure?"

Lu Ping nodded slowly, "This is the best chance!"

Zhou Zhengyang sighed and turned to look at Gao Lanlan, "You said... He shouldn't win the award, right?"

Hearing this, Gao Lanlan laughed, "Unless he is better than Qin Wei! You must know that Qin Wei was in his forties before he made "Red Light District" and won the Golden Lion Award in Venice!"

Zhou Zhengyang laughed when he heard the words, "Yes, yes!"

At this moment, I don't know what to think, Zhou Zhengyang suddenly looked like he was arrogant, and said loudly: "That's right! He is a literary film, we are a commercial blockbuster, what are we afraid of him! What about him? "

Lu Ping smiled and said, "Yes! Hit him!"

After all, the three looked at each other and smiled.

Everyone seems to have seen the good times when "Red Sorghum" was trampled under their feet by themselves!

***

I've written a lot, so it's too late.

At the end of the month, although I have already made everyone go through it several times, I still want everyone to go through it again to see if I can find another one-and-a-half sheet... The recent plot, I am afraid that it will not be well written, and I will be stressed. Very big, Dao Yi Chong urgently needs your monthly ticket encouragement!
