my gilded age

Chapter 371 The Queen of Berlin!

When the front page headline of the "Berlin Morning Post" was published, the discussion on related topics naturally added fuel to the fire and became even more intense.

"Bai Shiqiu is so arrogant!"

"How can a golden bear allow a thief to win an award?"

There are constant attacks on the Internet, and many German netizens have never watched the movie, but this does not prevent them from saying a few words.

On the other hand, Aji gave a lot of affirmation.

"I can't say it's the best, but I think the movie "Actress" has the potential to challenge the Golden Bear." Aki is a professional after all, and his two comments are quite sensible.

At this time, the most interesting thing is a person who has changed.

"The level of "Actress" is sufficient, but I think "Carefree" is even better." This transformed her is that Maria Gusinota.

What is going on with this woman?
Why did she slap herself in the face?

In fact, she originally posted that article out of anger, and she had an old grudge with that Aji, so she wanted to fight with that Aji.

The film at the Berlin Film Festival is a Chinese film, so how many ordinary Germans have seen it?
If nothing else, she was Gucinotta, she was Italian, she just took up a place.

So, plagiarism or not, just listen to her babbling mouth?
Moreover, when the topic of copycats is raised on the Internet, there are not only a large number of responders, but they are all targeting China. This is absolutely true.

However, didn’t feminist groups join in later? It’s true that these feminist groups have never seen Baek Shi-qiu’s movie, but what is the name of this movie?

"actress".

The feminist group started to spray it with enthusiasm, but later found out that it turned out to be a movie called "Actress". Is this a mistake?
No matter how low my IQ is, no matter how I have never seen a movie, I can always understand the movie title.

So, you stopped supporting Gucinotta and even criticized her. Do you have ulterior motives?

Of course, the guns of feminist groups are still hot, and this time they are focused on attacking this old man Aji.

It was originally plagiarism, so Gucinotta had no choice but to restrain himself, but he couldn't slap himself in the face too hard, so he found another film to talk about.

"Carefree", which has been recognized as a good film before, is the most powerful challenger for the Golden Bear Award this time. It should be difficult for people to find anything wrong with using her to suppress "Actress".

Most of us Chinese people are unaware of such a small change in the direction of German public opinion. Even No. 4 who are currently paying attention to Bai Shiqiu's trip to Germany are distracted at this time. The matter of Hong Kong teacher Edison is unfolding in full swing. , various voices seeking resources are rising one after another on the Internet.

Even if the relevant departments made it clear that distributing such resources was illegal, they still couldn't stop the power of curiosity, and many people took risks just for that set of photos.

This is how Mr. Guanxi's position in the photography world was established.

However, Shuqi knew that as one of the judges of this Berlin Film Festival, she should not have been affected by external public opinion. This is the quality that a judge should have, and she should even confront external public opinion.

But how could she not understand that the target was the golden bear? This was the signal Bai Shiqiu gave her.

In Shuqi's understanding, she and Bai Shiqiu cannot have close contact, but communication is necessary, but what should be done?
Bai Shiqiu announced his goal in such a high-profile manner this time. Isn't this just for her Shuqi to see?
The relationship between the two people now is very strange, a bit... like spies.

However, Shuqi knew what to say, just like the "My name is Huang Xiaoming" meme. Praising is the worst method. Helping to explain and let the judges understand the connotation of the movie is the key.

She was able to go from being a star to her current status not only because of her figure.

With Shuqi's introduction and deliberate addition of connotations, the movie "I (Actress)" won nods and praises from many judges.

In fact, no matter how fierce the noise is outside, it does not have a great impact on the jury. It is unrealistic to say that it has any impact at all, but after all, these people are artists who flaunt their individuality and uniqueness.

There were eight people in the jury, and the one who was really scratching his head at this time was the chairman, Jia Huasi.

There are three movies that he likes very much at the moment, "Carefree", "Me (Actress)", and "Left and Right". These three movies are, in his opinion, the best and most thoughtful movies in Berlin at least this year.

"Carefree" is the work of his friend, Mike Leigh. This movie tells a very heartwarming, positive and humorous story.

Needless to say, "I (Actress)" has a novel and thoughtful approach.

The story of "Left and Right" has twists and turns and explores human ethics.

Moreover, these three films also have one thing in common, that is, they all have women as the most important characters, and the performances of the actresses are very brilliant.

Seriously, Jarworth couldn't help laughing when he saw feminist groups scolding "I (Actress)".

Sally Hawkins, she is not beautiful, but she fits the character Bobby in "Carefree", and her performance is impeccable, which makes people can't help admiring.

Qianqian, she grasped this actress very accurately, especially the transformation of the character's temperament. Although there are many technical means in the movie, she still has to shape the character herself. Those two completely different selves are so amazing. .

Liu Weiwei, she has a good grasp of the mentality of the heroine in "Left and Right" who wants to save the child, but is caught in the choice and struggle between human relations, family, and love.

Each one is so good, it’s hard to choose.

But that's nothing. The biggest headache for Jia Huasi is that there is a movie that has already been approved by the people above, and this movie must win the Golden Bear.

what should we do?

None of the guys in the jury knew about the Golden Bear matter. In fact, it had already been decided. As the chairman, Jia Huasi needed to provide guidance.

……

Time flies in a foreign land, especially since Bai Shiqiu and his two wives are so intimate.

On February 2th, this day is the closing ceremony of the Berlin Film Festival, which is the day when those bears belong to whom.

There are three people in the Prom Hotel who don't seem to care about this at all.

Last night, I couldn't bear the whipping.

This morning, Qianqian was uncharacteristically.

Bai Shiqiu is below. He has not felt Qianqian's enthusiasm for a long time. At this time, she is like a lioness, trying to eat Bai Shiqiu alive.

for a long time……

"What's wrong? Nervous?"

"No, I'm a little scared."

"Don't be afraid, my husband is here."

"Husband, I always feel like something is wrong."

Qianqian, who was covered in sweat and curled up in Bai Shiqiu's arms, frowned.

"There's something wrong." Bai Shiqiu couldn't help but rub it with his hands.

"Are you really sure you can get the golden bear?" Qianqian pushed his hand away.

"Ha, guess?" Bai Shiqiu said with a smile.

"You!" Qianqian understood that this guy didn't want to talk. She had many thoughts in her mind, but she couldn't get the answer at this time.At this time, Aiya on the side couldn't help complaining: "You guys, stop making noise and let me sleep a little longer."

Today, everyone is paying attention to the ownership of the Golden Bear, but no one knows that Bai Shiqiu and his two wives are sleeping together.

The award ceremony takes place in the evening and Potsdamer Platz is brightly lit.

Wang Xiaoshuai came earlier. Of course he didn't come to watch the closing film "Ace Producer". His heart was not peaceful. The accusations he made before were really inappropriate.

It must be because Bai Shiqiu is too arrogant, and I want him to restrain himself.

This was Wang Xiaoshuai's explanation to himself, and the many controversies it later caused were really not what he wanted.

Bai Shiqiu, why do you have to do this?

Wang Xiaoshuai is also very confident in his work. Many film critics have given good reviews. Especially if more people talk about it, this movie is likely to get a good box office.

"Left and Right" is the work of Wang Xiaoshuai, with a strong personal style. The leader of the sixth generation of directors should have better box office performance.

There is only one goal right now, the Golden Bear!

Fang Binbin also came very early. During her time in Berlin, she visited a lot and felt that it was pretty good here. Maybe it was a little far away from her original purpose. For example, she wanted to have something happen with Bai Shiqiu, but right now It's OK.

"That bastard Bai Shiqiu can win the Golden Bear? Then he won't go to heaven." Fang Binbin had a feeling of love and hate for Bai Shiqiu.

I love his talent, but I hate that this guy has more than one woman around him, and I especially hate that he keeps a distance from me.

Shuqi and the members of the jury were also present. Naturally, an oriental beauty like her attracted a lot of attention, at least in the eyes of foreigners she was very beautiful.

Anyway, she tried her best. As for whether Bai Shiqiu can win the award or whether he can help herself, she has no idea now.

Shuqi was a little confused about Jia Huasi's thoughts, especially the issue of the final award. The judges voted for it now, but they really didn't know what the result would be.

What a strange feeling.

There are a total of 26 films shortlisted for the competition, and of course there are at least 26 teams.

South Korean director Hong Sang-soo brought a movie called "Day and Night" and he talked eloquently in front of reporters.

"We Koreans will never plagiarize, absolutely not, that's how we Koreans..."

No one asked him about plagiarism, so the guy just kept talking to himself.

There's nothing we can do about it, because basically no one paid attention to his "Day and Night", and no film critics even bothered to review it.

Japan also has veteran Yamada Yoji who brought a new work "Mother". The heroine is the national treasure actor Sayuri Yoshinaga. She doesn't talk much, but she still has to express her determination.

But before he could say anything, someone shouted over there.

"Wow! It's Bai Shiqiu!"

"And there are two heroines!"

"Baek Shi Qiu, can you tell me? Many film critics have asserted that you won't win the Golden Bear, and "Carefree" has a better chance."

The reporters were sharp-eyed. They noticed Bai Shiqiu, especially our Chinese reporters. One by one, they handed the microphone to Bai Shiqiu as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood.

How would Bai Shiqiu respond?
Many people expect him to be more arrogant, which is interesting.

Just listen to Bai Shiqiu say: "The Golden Bear is my goal. It doesn't matter what others say. Winning the award doesn't depend on what they say."

Sure enough, it's still Bai's style.

Qianqian and Aiya were behind him and couldn't help but cover their mouths and smile.

In the current situation, even Aji feels that "Carefree" is the winner of the Golden Bear. Although "Me (Actress)" is very strong, it is still inferior.

So, is the result what they expected?

The award ceremony begins immediately.

The hall was full of people. On the surface, everyone was polite and chatting and laughing, but in fact they were all focused on the final result.

After all, the bears at the Berlin Film Festival are real gold and silver. Every award is paid for. In the eyes of big stars, this is nothing. Woolen cloth.

In the early days, they were all short films, also given out by Gold and Silver Bears, and then there were some special units, but something unexpected happened here.

Zhou Meiling didn't win the Teddy Bear for her "Breaking Bad". You know, she was the winner of this award last year. This time she also made a gay film, but she missed out on the grand prize.

But no one thought that this was just the unexpected beginning of the Berlin Film Festival.

Finally, the feature film awards are here, and the first award is for the best screenwriter.

"The 58th Berlin Film Festival... Best Screenplay, Xiaoshuai Wang! "Left and Right"!"

When he heard his name being read out, Wang Xiaoshuai's face was extremely embarrassed. He didn't expect that his name would appear so early.

What about the golden bear?
Will it run away?
But since he was given such an award, he should go and get it.

And then, interesting results came again.

"Best Actress...The competition for this award is very fierce, and the winner is...Qian Wan!"

When she heard her name, Qianqian's mind was filled with confusion. She didn't expect such a result. She was completely stunned.

what is this?
Is this a movie queen?
Berlin Film Festival winner?
I?
Qianqian?
"Congratulations!" The silly Qianqian was immediately rubbed into Bai Shiqiu's arms.

Qianqian's eyes were filled with tears instantly, "Lao Bai, what should you, you, your golden bear do?"

Yes, how can I get the Golden Bear?
As long as you look at the Berlin Film Festival, or the history of European film festivals, it is easy to find that it is difficult for a film to win multiple trophies at a film festival.

It's not impossible, but it's quite rare.

Now that Qianqian has won the Best Actress Silver Bear, can the Golden Bear be given to Bai Shiqiu?
In particular, our movie is a Chinese movie, so it would be great to get one.

However, Bai Shiqiu smiled at this time and said: "Little fool, have you forgotten? This is the gift I want to give you."

It turns out that Golden Bear was not Bai Shiqiu’s target from the beginning.

After Qianqian heard this, big tears fell down, and even Aiya beside her couldn't help sobbing.

Damn it, Old Bai, why do you fool everyone?
　Thank you everyone!sincere gratitude!

　　Please support me. Thank you very much. Black Che will go to code now.
