The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 274 Receiving the Award in Three to Five Years

The Shanghai International Film Festival opens on June 13th and ends on June [-]th.

As soon as the sun rose on the [-]th, Li Shengyao got up, went downstairs to exercise for an hour, returned to the hotel, took a shower, and then went out with Dong Xuan.

This batch of co-productions in 04.

Shonan Satellite TV is "The Temptation of Going Home", Shanghai Satellite TV is "Missing You", and Gusu Satellite TV is "My University".

Needless to say, "The Temptation of Going Home" is a magical drama, and Shonan Satellite TV attaches great importance to it, but there are too many episodes, and the filming should not be completed until August.

"Missing You" is a sadistic love drama starring Park Yoochun and Park Eun Hye, with an average audience rating of 2012% in 11.00.

At this time, smartphones are prevalent, and the ratings of TV dramas in various countries have plummeted. The ratings of "Missing You" ranked eighth this year.

"My University" is borrowed from the Korean drama "Dream high". This is a Korean drama that reflects the efforts of trainees to pursue their dreams. It has a good reputation and ratings in the peninsula.

Starring Bae Suzy, Kim Soo Hyun, iu and others.

About love and growth.

There will be a second part later, with a different group of people, and the word-of-mouth ratings are also very good.

Dong Xuan has finished filming the drama and completed the dubbing. During this time, she can be with Li Shengyao.

Wearing peaked caps and masks, the two came to Shanghai Studios.

This movie theater is affiliated to Shanghai City, and all previous international film festivals have been held here.

After buying tickets, the two found a seat and watched a movie hand in hand. The first movie they watched was "The Price" from Persia.

The Shanghai International Film Festival is very popular with filmmakers from countries with weak cultural communication.

Like Persia, like Ireland, like Mexico, like Riiodine.

The art films in these countries are good, but even if they sell well at the box office in their own countries, it is difficult to recover the cost. If they can be sold at film festivals, they can make a lot of money.

First-class film festivals such as Cannes, Venice, and Berlin are flocked by literary and artistic films from all over the world, and it is difficult to stand out.

On the contrary, second-rate film festivals like Dongjing and Shanghai City don't have so many competitors, and the island country and Huaxia film market are not bad, so they are easier to sell.

Almost every Shanghai International Film Festival has excellent Persian films.

This year's film festival is no exception.

In the end, "The Price" will win the best director.

The censorship in Persia is similar to that in the Mainland, and relatively speaking, it is even stricter.

Their capital and market are far inferior to those in the mainland, but Persian filmmakers are still very good.

In terms of the rise of Korean movies, compared to the historical honor of movies, Persian movies rank third in Asia after the island country and China.

Persian movies pay more attention to the expression of emotions, they hardly show off their skills, they just tell stories seriously, sincerely and delicately.

Their movies are perfect for a person to calm down and watch slowly.

"The Price" tells that in a poor mountainous area, private logging is prohibited, but the land is not suitable for planting, and the villagers can only rely on logging to survive.

My father was secretly logging and was caught.

The police who took him away was also his daughter's fiancé.

The son is still in elementary school. In order to subsidize the family, he secretly gave saws to the logging villagers to make money.

In an accidental operation, his homework book fell to the ground with his name on it, and he was arrested by the police.

This suffering family has suffered one blow after another.

"I'm Not the God of Medicine" talks about the disease of poverty, and "The Price" also talks about the impact of poverty on life.

Lee Sing Yew personally likes this movie very much.

In the next few days, he also watched movies such as "Beautiful Shanghai City", "Jasmine Blossoms", and "Scandal". He studied at the Shanghai City Film City at the rate of three movies a day.

"Beautiful Shanghai City" is Wang Tuoxian's final work. There is no problem with the conception, editing, photography and soundtrack, but the director uses the original voice of the actors. There are Yanjing dialect, Cantonese Mandarin, and Shanghai dialect, which sounds awkward.

In addition, the plot is too flat, and several characters have almost evenly divided the time, which is quite hurt.

This film will take the best picture of this film festival.

Li Shengyao thought it was too high. If it wasn't for the title of the film, he shouldn't have such a high honor.

After watching the movie, he will also make a record, just like "The Price", which may not be able to get a high box office, but it is very suitable for some young people to watch.

Wu Siyuan's ume cinema, in addition to showing popular movies nowadays, will also show some old Hong Kong movies from time to time.

This is more diversified and adapts to different audiences.

Li Shengyao intends to learn from this point. In the future, Fenghua Film City will not only play the current blockbuster movies, but also reserve a few small halls to play some moving dramas, just like "The Price".

He will arrange for someone to contact someone from "The Price", and he will buy the permanent broadcasting rights in the mainland for less than [-] dollars.

……

2004年6月13日晚上7点30分，李声耀与董璇一起参加了沪城国际电影节颁奖晚会。

This time the award show was star-studded, and many stars came, such as Cheng Long, Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Manyu, Liu Dehua, Lao Mouzi and others.

Li Shengyao's seat is still in the first row, but on the side.

He will be the award presenter tonight, presenting the jury award together with Zhang Manyu.

He sat down under the stage first, and later came to the stage to present the awards.

The jury award can be regarded as the second best "work award", second only to the best film. The awarding partner is Zhang Manyu, and the Shanghai International Film Festival still gave Li Shengyao enough face.

Soon after, the awards ceremony officially began.

About 10 minutes later, it was Lee Shengyao's turn to present the award. He came backstage and met Zhang Manyu.

Zhang Manyu has lost a lot of weight at this time. She will win the Cannes Best Actress in September this year with "Clean" and become the god of Asian actresses. No actress can compare to her in terms of awards.

But at the beginning of this year, during the filming of "Clean", she divorced her husband by agreement.

It may be that the heights are too cold, and it may be that there is no challenge.

Zhang Manyu will stop acting after that, and only made cameo appearances in two movies for a minute or two.

Li Shengyao felt that it was a pity. If Zhang Manyu could act like Meryl Streep until she got old, with her acting skills, her honor should be even more dazzling.

But people have their own ambitions, and we can't persuade them.

Li Shengyao and Zhang Manyu exchanged a few words, then went out together after waiting for a while.

Before the awards are presented, the two award presenters usually chat awkwardly, and this time it is the same.

"Director Li, I heard that you will make a movie next year. Do you think you can win an award next year, or the year after?"

Li Shengyao smiled and shook his head, "I hope to win the award, but next year is too soon, three to five years away."

"you are too humble."

Li Shengyao glanced at the audience and saw Lao Mouzi, Feng Xiaogang, and Jiang Wen, "There are a lot of talents in the world film industry. I am a latecomer. I said that in three to five years, many people must say that I am arrogant. I’m also guilty, so I can only say my best.”

The two then presented awards, and this time the jury award was given to "Scandal", which is a Peninsula film.

After Li Shengyao presented the award, he returned to the backstage, and then returned to his own seat.

The host Kefan came on stage, "Director Li, don't be arrogant in three to five years, I hope to see you here next year to accept the award."

The camera focused on Li Shengyao, who nodded with a smile.
