China Entertainment Anchor

Beijing Film Academy is worthy of its reputation as the top film school in Asia.

And this year, Chinese films have achieved more than that in Berlin. In addition to the three films shortlisted for the main competition unit, two were shortlisted for the Panorama unit, three for the New Generation unit, and four for the Forum unit.

There are a total of twelve Chinese films shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival this time.

This year's Chinese films in Berlin have made a huge splash.

Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei, at the reminder of their assistants, did not have much to say when they saw the list.

Now it's time for others to focus on their movies, not them to focus on others.

They were looking at something else, the jury at the Berlin Film Festival.

The festival's jury president is Juliette Binoche.

She is the first movie star in world film history to win the Grand Slam of Best Actress at the three major European film festivals and the Oscar.

Three or four years earlier than Julianne Moore.

“This is a good thing for us!”

"Yes, this French rose can most resonate with movies like "Decision to Die." Zhang Yang nodded, agreeing with Liu Yifei's point of view.

Juliet comes from an artistic family. Let's see what she likes besides acting: modern dance, oil painting, and writing.

From a Chinese perspective, it is full of petty bourgeois sentiment and "Decision to Break Up" is exactly what she likes.

"but……"

"But what?" Liu Yifei saw that Zhang Yang only said two words and couldn't help asking. Was he deliberately arousing her curiosity?

"The good news I'm talking about is the good news of getting the Golden Bear."

If a film wins the Golden Bear in Berlin, it will be harder to win other awards, not only Best Actress but also Best Director.

"As long as it's good news." Liu Yifei didn't care.

The next afternoon, around three o'clock, Liu Yifei came to the study from the bedroom, carrying two suits, red and blue.

"How about we wear these two today?" Liu Yifei wanted their red and blue CP to reappear in the arena.

"No, let's wear black. This year is the 20th anniversary, so we should be more conservative." Zhang Yang sat behind the desk and directly rejected Liu Yifei's proposal.

"You are always so troublesome." Liu Yifei muttered and returned to the bedroom.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, both of them changed their clothes. They were both wearing black suits, with thermal underwear and turtleneck sweaters underneath, determined to keep warm.

Zhang Yang looked at himself and Liu Yifei in the mirror, dressed to perfection.

"I won't wear red and blue suits anymore. I'll just wear black. It looks good this way." Zhang Yang is 35 years old now, and he likes to look steady in formal occasions.

Liu Yifei walked out without saying a word.

This year's Neck Night was held at the Cadillac Center, just like last year.

Accompanied by their assistant bodyguards, the two of them came to the special passage of the venue and walked directly into the venue. There were many people gathered in the front row in the center of the venue.

When Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei arrived, they started to greet them. In addition to Cao Guowei and Wang Gaofei from Xinlang, the big names who came today included Xiao Ma Ge, Sun Huaizhong, Fatty Yu, Wang Changtian, Dr. Gong, and Liang Jianzhang.

"Boss Ma, we haven't seen each other for a long time!"

"Yeah, it's been quite a while. I haven't thanked you for what happened last time."

"These are all trivial matters." Zhang Yang waved his hand nonchalantly, not taking it to heart at all.

"Mr. Liang, what new findings have you made in your recent research on population issues?"

"Zhang Yang, you're right, it's true. I found that what prevents people from having children now are housing, education and medical care. As long as the country promotes..." Liang Jianzhang became interested, and he told the people around him his views as if he was giving a speech.

Zhang Yang just mentioned it casually, but unexpectedly he became more excited. People around him looked at Zhang Yang with a slightly complaining look, asking him why he asked this question.

"Zhang Yang, I haven't congratulated you yet. Oppenheimer swept the Golden Globe Awards, which greatly increased the prestige of our domestic films." Fatty Yu couldn't stand it anymore, so he interrupted and changed the subject decisively. Everyone must be interested.

After being reminded by him, the people around him really started to congratulate Zhang Yang, and even Liang Jianzhang stopped his speech.

"'Decision to Leave' is going to Berlin, I wish you another Golden Bear." Wang Changtian saw Liu Yifei next to Zhang Yang and added: "And the Silver Bear for Best Actress."

"Mr. Wang, why don't you say you want to win the Best Actor award again?" Zhang Yang glanced at Wang Changtian.

"Zhang Yang, I didn't expect you to have such ambitions in this regard." Fatty Yu said with a laugh.

Everyone around was laughing.

"By the way, have you heard any news about Huayi recently?" Fatty Yu asked Zhang Yang mysteriously.

"Why should I pay attention to him? Something happened again?"

"You really don't know." Wang Changtian was a little unconvinced.

Zhang Yang shook his head.

"Huayi borrowed money from Lao Ma. It is said that the amount is 700 to 800 million yuan." Fatty Yu revealed the answer.

"Mr. Yu, 700 million or 800 million is nothing to Zhang Yang." Liang Jianzhang didn't feel anything about it.

People around him thought about the 800 million yuan donated by Zhang Yang some time ago. It seemed that if Huayi had a good relationship with Zhang Yang, he would probably be able to pay the 8 billion yuan even if they had to borrow it.

"Although Lao Ma is usually stingy, he is quite generous towards his friends." Zhang Yang really didn't know about this kind of news, but Lao Ma did a good job this time.

"Interest also needs to be paid..." Wang Changtian added details.

Zhang Yang immediately found it boring. There was also interest charged, which was too commercial and meaningless.

After everyone chatted casually for a while, Liu Yifei saw the picture on the stage, pointed at it and teased Cao Guowei: "Mr. Cao, our Weibo Night is finally not sponsored by Ford." Previously, the title sponsor of Weibo Night has always been Ford Motor Company.

"Yes, those who make mobile phones are rich." Cao Guowei smiled happily. He presumably received a lot of sponsorship fees from Green Factory.

"Part of this money went into your pocket, Zhang Yang."

"Brother Xiao Ma, are you deliberately mocking me? Don't you know how badly the rice stock price has fallen?"

The rice price fell below the issue price when it was listed. Although it rose by 30% in the next month, it started to fall again. Now the share price has fallen below HK$10 per share.

Even if he bought at the price Zhang Yang paid, he would still lose money, and many people laughed at him for this. Xiao Ma Ge was also stuck.

"I'm talking about BYD. Its mobile phone OEM business is booming. I heard that part of the OEM business for Mi 9 is also given to BYD."

Speaking of BYD's mobile phone OEM business, it was doing quite well in the early 2000s. At that time, they successively won orders from international giants such as Nokia and Motorola, and the overall business was thriving.

But a certain company was lucky because its client Apple experienced a huge boom, while BYD's clients were out of business.

It is for this reason that they have turned their attention to the fields of automobiles, new energy, etc. It can only be said that time and fate are the same!

"Really?" Zhang Yang had never paid attention to these issues. BYD's mobile phone OEM business was booming. It was not until the end of this year when certain companies were leaving that some mobile phone manufacturers became concerned and gave their orders to BYD.

As the group of people were chatting and laughing, Wang Gaofei came over to remind them: "The red carpet is about to begin, everyone please take your seats!"

Everyone nodded and sat down in the center of the first row. In the middle was still Cao Guowei, on the left were Xiao Ma Ge and others, on the right were Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei, and the other seats were empty as usual.

After walking on the red carpet for about half an hour, an actor finally came to the front to say hello.

Luo Jing, Xi Mengyao, Qin Hao and others came over one after another.

Seeing Luo Jing alone, Liu Yifei couldn't help but ask, "Where's Tangtang?"

"We're not together."

Liu Yifei nodded, but felt that Xinlang's arrangement was unreasonable.

After a while, a group of recently popular group who debuted from "Idol Producer" also came over. Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei subconsciously looked at Xiaopang's younger brother. What a coincidence, she had raised her brother on the eve of falling down.

The ones who came later were all variety show stars, so Zhang Yang paid a little attention to Wang Jiaer.

Although he debuted as a trainee, his family is not ordinary. His father was known as the best swordsman in Asia and was a fencing champion.

What’s even more amazing is that his grandfather is an academician in the field of medicine, and there is a textbook on medical surgery that was compiled by his grandfather.

He came from a family of skilled swordsmen and won many championships in fencing when he was a child, but unfortunately, Wang Jiaer just yearned for the entertainment industry.

Of course, Zhang Yang didn't know about this news, and he didn't pay special attention to him.

He only knew that in the 24th year of the original time and space, Wang Jiaer's overseas fans had reached the highest level by a huge margin.

But now, it's impossible.

When this group of variety show stars finished their performance, the singers started to enter the stage. When Zhang Liangying came over, Liu Yifei had someone she could have a good chat with.

Zhang Yang had a strange look on his face when the wizard came over to say hello. This guy was a bit weird. He let the woman run away with the baby and held his own concert like a ritual, and there were actually people blowing it.

After the singers, the new generation of singers such as Nazha and Reba began to enter the stage.

When Yang Zi brought Deng Lun over to greet Zhang Yang, he burst out laughing.

"Are you Deng Lun?"

"Hello, Director Zhang." When Deng Lun heard Zhang Yang calling out his name, he thought that his chance to rise to fame had come. If he could work with Zhang Yang on a movie, he could soar to fame on the spot.

"Brother Xiao Ma, this is a talented person. We should invite him to Tengxun if there is a chance." Zhang Yang pointed at Deng Lun and said to Brother Xiao Ma.

"Oh?" Brother Ma looked at Deng Lun in surprise. What kind of extraordinary talent did he have that made Zhang Yang so amazed?

The people around were looking at Deng Lun in surprise. Was he going to ascend to heaven on the spot?
"What kind of talents? Are we a good match?" Cao Guowei was also curious.

“You may not know this, but he runs his own fan club and has set up a membership system. He has really grasped the essence of Tengxun.” Zhang Yang looked at Deng Lun and praised him to the sky.

Deng Lun was completely frozen. This was not a one-step ascension; it was an explosion on the spot.

The people around him looked at Deng Lun strangely. He had lost face today.
Although Zhang Yang said this in private, it also represents his attitude towards Deng Lun. In the future, he will not be able to get good resources in Tencent Video and iArt.

As for banning him, that's not the case. If Zhang Yang wanted to ban him, would he still be able to come to Weibo today? Would he still be able to win an award? The main attraction of Weibo Night is that those who come will be awarded.

Zhang Yang ignored him after he finished speaking. Deng Lun stood there awkwardly, not knowing whether to leave or not, which made Yang Zi, who came with him, also feel awkward.

"You guys should go back to your seats quickly." Liu Yifei saw Yang Zi's embarrassment and helped them out.

Yang Zi smiled and nodded, and quickly left with Deng Lun, but she decided to stay away from him in the future.

After they left, Tang Yan, Yang Daming and others began to enter the venue. Everyone chatted again. Liu Yifei was a little surprised to see that Tang Yan was not wearing a skirt or high heels.

Although Tang Yan is taller than her friends, she likes to wear high heels so that she can show off her beautiful legs.

She felt a little abnormal.

After the popular young actress passed by, people like Huang Xiaoming started to enter the venue and the red carpet reached the end.

While Huang Xiaoming was greeting them, Liu Yifei looked at his shoes and suddenly realized something was wrong. She didn't say anything, but reminded Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang was reminded by Liu Yifei and looked at Huang Xiaoming's shoes and then at his height.

"What's wrong with your shoes?" Zhang Yang asked directly. He knew Huang Xiaoming's real height, and it didn't look like he was wearing height-increasing insoles.

His words made many people look at Huang Xiaoming's shoes, only to see that a large part of his left foot was protruding.
