Full-time actor

the next day.

Liu Yifei opened her eyes early.

I thought that after the previous day's hustle and bustle, I would sleep in very late today.

Unexpectedly, she was already fully awake just as dawn broke.

Turning his head to look at the person sleeping peacefully beside him, their conversation from the previous night became even clearer.

She knew in her heart that Chen Yu only asked about things he was sure of.

I casually picked up my phone from the bedside table, ready to check today's news headlines.

Since she and Chen Yu returned to China, news about them has flooded the internet.

Most of the comments are about the honors received by The Grand Budapest Hotel.

Besides.

That's what we're looking forward to after it's released during the summer holiday season.

In Liu Yifei's view, the achievements this film made before its release were indeed remarkable.

only.

The more people looked forward to it, the more pressure Liu Yifei felt.

Just like the last film, "Black Coal, Thin Ice," which won three awards in Berlin, but suffered from poor box office performance, resulting in a lot of negative news.

Liu Yifei just felt sorry for Chen Yu.

The higher the position, the greater the responsibility.

People habitually attribute the success of the work to Chen Yu.

Standing under the spotlight, every word and action will be magnified and scrutinized.

Liu Yifei couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

In comparison, Chen Yu's mental fortitude was much stronger.

Just thinking about it.

Liu Yifei swiped her phone, only to be greeted by a deluge of headlines.

Golden Rooster?

The Golden Rooster Awards ceremony is still half a year away, so why is it making the front page of major portal websites?

Liu Yifei was somewhat confused.

However, driven by curiosity, I clicked on it anyway.

The 27th Golden Rooster Awards will introduce a "Best Foreign Language Film" award for the first time!

"Oh?"

When Liu Yifei saw this news, her eyes widened in surprise.

This is truly an unprecedented situation.

Just then, a hand wrapped around her waist.

Chen Yu buried his head in Liu Yifei's neck, the fragrance emanating from her hair intoxicating.

"Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

A breath of hot air sprayed onto Liu Yifei's neck, causing a slight itch.

"Honey, guess what I just found out?"

Liu Yifei's words were cryptic, causing Chen Yu to look up.

this time.

It's simply that Huayi Brothers' film clashed with their "The Grand Budapest Hotel," which sparked considerable controversy.

Apart from this, there doesn't seem to be anything else that they should be overly concerned about.

Seeing that Chen Yu didn't say anything, Liu Yifei handed him her phone.

On June 7, 2009, the China Film Association issued a "Notice on Participation in the 27th China Golden Rooster Awards".

After Chen Yu clicked on it, he noticed the information clearly marked in the notification.

The 27th Golden Rooster Awards introduced for the first time "Best Foreign Language Film", "Most Popular Overseas Director", and "Most Popular Actor and Actress"!
This is something new.

Chen Yu looked up at Liu Yifei.

No wonder the Film Association called Chen Yu last year and told him that there would be a big surprise at this year's Golden Rooster Awards ceremony.

So that's what they were really planning.

Chen Yu's thoughts drifted away; the establishment of the Best Foreign Language Film award at the Golden Rooster Awards was no accident.

This phenomenon also occurred in later generations.

And it attracted considerable attention within the industry at the time.

It seems that Chen Yu's rebirth has brought about a series of chain reactions.

In addition to impacting box office revenue in recent years, the development of China's film industry has also been affected.

"This news is quite an interesting signal."

Upon hearing Chen Yu's words, Liu Yifei nodded in agreement.

"It seems that China's film market is getting better and better."

For Liu Yifei, this is indeed a very good thing.

From then on.

Chinese filmmakers who want to communicate and collaborate may find more channels and topics to discuss.

As for Chen Yu, he was naturally happy to see such a scene.

This means that the influence and openness of the Chinese film market are gradually increasing.

only.

All beginnings are hard.

The foreign language film award has just been established, and very few people will agree with it.

The two are now discussing this topic in depth.

This matter has already sparked huge controversy online.

Official media outlets such as Xinhua News Agency also stepped in to provide interpretations.

[Using Cinema as a Medium: The Golden Rooster Awards Engage with the World!]

For the first time, the Golden Rooster Awards have added awards for "Best Foreign Language Film," "Most Popular Overseas Director," "Most Popular Overseas Actor," and "Most Popular Overseas Actress"!

"This move signifies that China's most authoritative and professional film award is building a new platform for dialogue with international cinema with a broad vision."

"Its establishment is like a bridge of light and shadow."

"This bridge will bring together a more diverse range of excellent world films and will promote the exchange and cooperation of film culture."

"With our best wishes, the Golden Rooster Awards will continue to play its role as a 'golden rooster crowing at dawn,' leading the Chinese film industry to new heights!"

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

The fact that state media is now stepping in to support this is essentially a completion of the value assignment.

This signifies that the Golden Rooster Awards have evolved from a professional industry award into a platform capable of shouldering national cultural missions.

This undoubtedly confirms the Golden Rooster Awards' authority and professionalism.

Besides.

This also means that the Golden Rooster Awards are allowed to explore mechanisms within a controllable scope.

Even if problems arise, they will naturally receive coordination and solutions from higher levels.

have to say.

Although this move is dangerous, the chance of winning is high.

Now that this news has been released, it has received support from all of China.

In addition, last year, the Golden Rooster Awards publicly supported Chen Yu.

With these two factors combined, the Golden Rooster Awards will become increasingly prestigious in the future.

The news flooded the internet.

In addition to official media providing their interpretations, major portal websites also promoted the event.

[The Golden Rooster Awards adds overseas awards: showcasing the attractiveness, openness, and confidence of the Chinese film market!]

[The Golden Rooster Awards are expanding! New international awards are coming soon!]

【…】

This news quickly became a hot topic of discussion across the internet.

Netizens were naturally happy to see this situation.

In the future, it will be much easier to learn about foreign films.

"Support! Wishing the Golden Rooster Awards great success."

"From distributing pork to distributing imported pork, the scope has been broadened."

"It's alright. Since the incident last year, I now have a very positive feeling towards the Golden Rooster Awards."

"I can't wait! Which international celebrities will be participating?"

"It's uncertain whether others will approve or not, so it's too early to be happy."

There are many conflicting opinions online.

Everyone has their own opinions on this; some agree, while others disagree.

However, this news did indeed shake the entire entertainment industry.

To know.

The fact that official media outlets have already stepped in to support it is enough to prove its value. Chen Yu could roughly guess Jinji's intentions in doing so.

Undoubtedly, it aims to explore international and Chinese aesthetics in film selection and enhance the international reach and influence of the film festival.

Just now, the news has just come out.

Even though there has been no notification from overseas yet, and the Golden Rooster Awards are still half a year away, announcing it now will naturally give them a long time to develop their impact.

Even if the news is kept out of reach, Chinese directors and actors will still promote this event.

The Golden Rooster Awards played its cards very well.

There will be someone to back you up no matter what.

As for the Golden Horse Awards, let's not even mention the heinous incident that happened last year.

Coupled with the Golden Rooster Awards' current actions, the Golden Horse Awards ceremony has undoubtedly become increasingly marginalized.

So, if you don't court death, you won't die.

In his previous life, the turning point in Jinma's fate was in 2018.

However, last year's events hastened its demise.

Comparisons are always hurtful, and from now on, the Golden Horse Awards will probably only be relegated to minor awards.

Chen Yu and Liu Yifei finally got out of bed.

Having learned about national affairs all day, I feel refreshed and invigorated.

However, this news has also given some directors and producers in the industry some mixed feelings.

after all.

Once a new dialogue platform emerges, well-known directors will naturally have no need to worry.

However, for some practitioners, every new policy is very likely to have an impact on them.

Liu Yifei and Chen Yu went downstairs together.

At this moment, Liu Xiaoli and Shen Xiaoqin are leaning on the sofa, watching today's news.

The television broadcast was reporting exactly what Liu Yifei and the others had just been concerned about.

obviously.

The Golden Rooster Awards' decision this time will affect more than just industry insiders.

"Have you seen the news today? The Golden Rooster Awards have established a foreign language film award."

As a family member of someone working in the film industry, Liu Xiaoli was naturally very concerned about this matter.

After all, her two children's careers are closely related to this matter.

Liu Yifei nodded.

He then sat down on the sofa and yawned.

"We don't know the specifics of what will happen; at this point, we've only released information."

Liu Yifei understands her mother.

She connects almost any online news or rumor to her work.

Thinking this, Liu Yifei moved closer to Liu Xiaoli's arms.

Her mother.

He devoted his entire life to her.

"This is a new trend that is worth paying attention to."

"The prerequisite is that it must be a professional field with international influence."

Chen Yu was thinking about this matter as soon as he came downstairs. In comparison, overseas filmmakers and media only had a basic understanding of the Golden Rooster Awards.

Compared to international awards like the Oscars and Cannes, they don't have high expectations for the Golden Rooster Awards.

As for now.

The Golden Rooster Awards have established a foreign language film award and hold international events.

Undoubtedly, they want to shift towards a film platform with an international perspective.

It is believed that the attitudes of foreign filmmakers will naturally change after this incident.

The Golden Rooster Awards have a long way to go and a heavy responsibility to undertake.

It's not just about establishing this award, but about gaining global respect through the award itself.

This requires long-term stability, professionalism, and transparency.

As for Chen Yu...

As filmmakers in China, we certainly have a responsibility to promote this matter.

……

2009 can be considered the inaugural year of the summer movie season.

There are as many as 100 films scheduled for release, including the already confirmed "The Grand Budapest Hotel" and "Chasing the Shadow".

The previous life.

Other titles include Ice Age 3, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, McDull: Kung Fu Kindergarten, and Overheard.

It's fair to say that the competition during the entire summer movie season was extremely fierce.

Chen Yu's thoughts returned.

Yang Lu, standing before him, had already expressed his thoughts.

"I expect it to be released on the 8th."

"The prime time for summer movie releases is around mid-July. In this case, even if the initial box office performance is not good, there is still a possibility of a turnaround based on word of mouth."

After all, the summer movie season has a long duration and the largest audience.

This is also the best time to create box office miracles.

Chen Yu nodded.

It's early June now, and there's still a month until the release of "The Grand Budapest Hotel".

The next phase is the final push for promotion.

This means that even if they have no other activities or work during this month, they still need to carry out intensive and high-intensity publicity.

But doing it is one thing.

In fact, given the current situation, Chen Yu does not have high expectations for the success of "The Grand Budapest Hotel".

Even with Fox Searchlight's marketing and promotion, and the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, the results might not be impressive in this life, given the circumstances of the previous one.

In addition, 2009 was a pivotal year for the world to emerge from the financial crisis and seek new growth drivers.

During this process, all industries will experience significant changes.

The first to bear the brunt.

Naturally, this refers to the film and television industry.

As for this time, there are quite a few films being released both domestically and internationally.

Whether he can achieve good results now depends solely on the reputation of his work and Chen Yu's own appeal.

You should know that right now, the entire internet is probably focused on "The Grand Budapest Hotel".

The incident involving "Black Coal, Thin Ice" has clearly made people more critical of Chen Yu's works.

Besides.

Many people in the industry are also looking forward to this work.

Yang Lu's reasons were quite valid, aside from one minor drawback: the competition during the summer movie season is extremely fierce before July 15th.

Almost all of them are occupied by top Hollywood blockbusters.

Although there has been no publicity, Chen Yu, as a reborn person, is naturally aware of it.

If it's direct competition, the risk is quite high.

but--

Better to be the head of the dragon than the tail of the phoenix.

Rather than releasing alongside low-budget films, it would be better to choose a better release date.

The previous publicity was just a vague timeframe.

As for what’s next.

That's when the movie should really start its promotional campaign.

Seeing Chen Yu nod, Yang Lu naturally went to deal with the matter without stopping.

The Grand Budapest Hotel will have its global premiere on July 8 during the summer movie season.

As soon as this news came out.

Reporters from major media outlets have already sensed the signs.

After all, we've been paying attention to this issue for a while now, and finally we have some definite news.

[Chen Yu's Cannes Award-winning film "The Grand Budapest Hotel" is coming to the summer blockbuster season. Stay tuned for July 8th!]

[The Grand Budapest Hotel is set to release on July 8th, promising an ultimate visual feast!]

As soon as this news came out.

Chen Yu, along with "The Grand Budapest Hotel," once again made headlines on major portals.

Its strength is beyond doubt.

This news brought a sigh of relief to Huayi Brothers.

At least in terms of time, there's no need to directly confront "The Grand Budapest Hotel"! (End of Chapter)
