Chapter 112 Returning to China
  Hengdian.

"Wow, Director Wang won the Best Screenplay Award at the Cannes Film Festival, and Sister Wen Li won the Best Actress Award at Cannes for Director Wang's "The Tuner."

There were staff members in the crew who got the news about the Cannes Film Festival and shouted excitedly.

Zhou Xun, Chen Daoming, Ning Jing, Jiang Xin, Shu Chang, Yang Mi and others were chatting and resting in a room at the moment, waiting for the crew to finish preparing and start filming the next scene. When they heard the noise outside, Zhou Xun couldn't help but asked with confusion and curiosity: "What is shouting outside?"

Her assistant was with her in the group. After hearing this, she immediately went out to inquire. When she came back, she said with a shocked face: "Sister Xun, Director Wang won the Best Screenplay Award in Cannes. Sister Wen Li won the Best Screenplay Award with Director Wang's "The Tuner" won the best actress crown at Cannes."

"The news has spread back to China from Cannes, and people outside are talking about it."

Zhou Xun, Ning Jing and others were stunned when they heard this, but Ning Jing was the first to speak up: "Director Wang won the best screenplay in Cannes, and Sister Wen Li won the best actress in Cannes?"

"That's right." Zhou Xun's assistant nodded, and then said, "The news has been spread back to the country. Domestic news media and portals have reported on the matter. It is absolutely true and there can be no mistake. of."

"Queen of Best Actress in Cannes." Ning Jing was in a daze. If she hadn't done something, she might have had the opportunity to become one of the top three best actresses in Europe. However,
  She looked at Zhou Xun and asked, "Xun'er, didn't you go to Cannes a few days ago? Didn't you get any news?"

After all, Zhou Xun is also a senior actor. Hearing this, he smiled bitterly and said: "I went to promote "The Night Banquet" with Director Feng and the others. Every day I was either attending to one cocktail party or another."

"Coupled with the fact that "The Tuner" is a shortlisted film, Director Wang has a lot of entertainment every day."

"I didn't bother you."

"When I was in Cannes, there were a lot of calls for every shortlisted film."

“No one knows what the outcome will be until the moment it is promulgated.”

"So, I don't dare to come back and say that Director Wang is guaranteed to win the award."

"If I don't win the award and I talk loudly on the set again, why shouldn't Director Wang be in a hurry with me when he comes back?"

After everyone heard this, they all felt that what Zhou Xun said was indeed true.

If you don’t understand the specifics, it’s really not appropriate to talk nonsense.

Easily offends people.

This is the lesson of blood.

"Cannes Best Screenplay Award." Chen Daoming couldn't help but sigh, "If I remember correctly, Director Wang won the Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award when he first participated in the Berlin Film Festival. ?”

Zhou Xun heard Chen Daoming's sigh and answered with a smile: "At the age of 18, his first movie with a production cost of to thousand yuan won the Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award when he went to Berlin."

"This is Director Wang's second time participating in the film festival."

"The current situation is that not only did I win the Cannes Best Screenplay Award, I also won the Best Actress crown."

"This is my second time participating in the film festival," Chen Daoming sighed again.

At this moment, not only him, but also others could not help but be amazed and envious.

Chen Daoming seemed to realize something, and suddenly said: "Director Wang's second participation in the film festival, is it his second participation in the international film festival, or has he only participated in two film festivals in total?"

"Total." Ning Jing couldn't help but speak out, "Director Wang has participated in two film festivals in total."

"He didn't participate in the domestic film festival?" Chen Daoming was a little confused and surprised when he heard this.

Although the Golden Rooster, Hundred Flowers, and Huabiao Awards have been held every two years since 2005, there will be no awards this year. The next award will not be held until 2.

However, it was held in 2005.

Not to mention, there are also the golden statues of Hong Kong Island and the golden horses of Treasure Island.

Since Wang Shu's "Buried Alive" won the Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival in early 2005, it can definitely be used to participate in domestic film festivals after returning to China.

Why didn't you go?

"No." Jing Jing said.

Zhou Xun hesitated to speak, but finally said: "I heard that some domestic film festivals have sent invitations to Director Wang, but Director Wang did not go."

"." Chen Daoming was silent for a moment when he heard this, and finally uttered two words, "confused."

He didn't explain why he said he was confused, he just said these two words.

However, even if he didn't explain, Zhou Xun and Ning Jing understood what he meant.

Jiang Xin, Shu Chang, Yang Mi and others just listened silently and did not have enough courage to interrupt at will.

Chen Daoming seemed to have thought of something and suddenly asked: "Did you just say that Director Wang's cost for filming "Buried Alive" was only two to three hundred thousand?"

Zhou Xun smiled and nodded when he heard this, and said: "Mr. Chen, I was surprised when I first heard about this, but it is indeed true. Director Wang personally admitted it."

This was the first time Yang Mi heard that the movie "Buried Alive" was made by Wang Shu with 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, and she was quite unbelievable on the sidelines.

When Chen Daoming heard this, he fell silent.

Like Yang Mi, this was the first time he heard about this incident, and his heart was already turned upside down.

Zhou Xun said with a smile: "An interesting thing happened after that."

Under Chen Daoming's doubtful and curious eyes, she continued: "Director Wang met Zhang Hanyu after winning the award in Berlin and gave him a big red envelope worth 200,000 yuan."

"This big red envelope is cash."

"Director Wang put it directly in his arms. When he met Zhang Hanyu, he took it out and gave it to Zhang Hanyu."

When Chen Daoming heard this, he was a little confused and couldn't help but said: "The cash red envelope of 200,000 yuan is such a big bundle, Director Wang just put it in his arms?"

Yang Mi and others heard these secrets for the first time. While they were surprised by the big red envelope of 200,000 yuan, they were also puzzled by Wang Shu's operation of holding 200,000 cash in his arms.

Zhou Xun smiled and nodded, saying: "Just put 200,000 cash in your arms."

Chen Daoming was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he suddenly realized and couldn't help but smile: "It seems that Director Wang should be very grateful to Zhang Hanyu."

Seeing that Yang Mi and others looked confused when they heard what he said, they immediately added, "'Buried Alive' is Director Wang's first film."

"So, Director Wang at that time can be understood as Wang Baoqiang, who became popular after starring in "A World Without Thieves"."

"After Wang Baoqiang became famous with "A World Without Thieves", he carried a bag of millet from his hometown and came to the capital to give it to Feng Xiaogang."

"After "Buried Alive" successfully went to the Berlin Film Festival and won the award, Director Wang took a 200,000 cash red envelope in his arms to express his gratitude."

"The two are actually the same principle, and they seem a bit nondescript."

"Actually, these are just ways for Director Wang and Bao Qiang, two people from rural areas, to express their gratitude from the bottom of their hearts."

The crew of "New Marriage Era".

"Mei Ting, your acting is very problematic, do you know?"

In front of the entire crew, Yan Po criticized Mei Ting vehemently, regardless of Mei Ting's face.

"The character Jian Jia has an independent personality. She is not as independent as you. Your expression and performance are wrong."

"It should be played like this, like this, do you understand?"

Mei Ting lowered her head and responded angrily: "I'm sorry, Director Yan, it's my problem, give me some time."

"Give you some time? How many times have I told you? Why can't you act well?" Yan Po continued to be reluctant. Liu Ruoyin, Guo Xiaodong and others watched from a distance, neither interrupting nor interrupting. They looked very embarrassed.

Everyone in the entire crew knows that Yan Po and Mei Tiao are husband and wife.

As a result, Yan Po, as the director, accused Mei Ting of poor acting skills in front of everyone on the crew every three days.

At the beginning, Liu Ruoyin and Guo Xiaodong thought that maybe there was something wrong with Mei Ting.

As time went by, they understood that this was Yan Po trying to show off his skill to the crew and looking for trouble for Mei Ting.

He didn't dare to find others, nor did he dare to use his rhetoric to highlight himself.

Mei Ting is different, she is his wife.

Standing out in front of the whole crew, there is no pressure.

After half an hour of lectures, Mei Tiao was finally freed.

She felt there was nothing wrong with her performance, only Yan Po thought there was something wrong with her.

Regarding this, she had discussed with Yan Po that she could discuss matters in private, and there was no need to do so in front of the entire crew.

However, Yan Po wanted to embarrass her in front of the entire crew, but would not resolve it in private.

Mei Ting understood that she was being used by her husband as a stepping stone to get the cup.

"Sister Mei, Director Wang won the Best Screenplay Award at Cannes, and Teacher Jiang Wenli also won the Best Actress Award at Cannes for Director Wang's "The Tuner"."

Mei Ting silently pretended not to see the strange looks from the crew. As soon as she took a sip of water during the break, her assistant came to whisper in her ear.

"Best Screenwriter?" Mei Ting, who was originally looking very depressed, suddenly brightened up after hearing that Wang Shu won the Best Screenplay Award in Cannes.

"Yes, best screenwriter." The assistant said affirmatively, "Not only is it the best screenwriter, but it also makes Jiang Wenli the best actress in Cannes."

"Queen of Cannes." Upon hearing this title, Mei Ting was a little distracted, and then asked, "Has Director Wang returned to China?"

"There's no news for the moment." The assistant said apologetically.

"Pay attention, if Director Wang returns to China, let me know." Mei Ting said with a smile.

"Understood." The assistant nodded and assured.

on the plane.

Wang Shu met Zhang Chaoyang from Sohu, who knew how to get things done, and he pulled Wang Shu to talk about his life ideals.

"Director Wang, during this trip to Cannes, not only did I win an award, but I also made a lot of money, right?" Zhang Chaoyang asked with a smile.

"I just earn some living expenses, which is incomparable to Mr. Zhang." Wang Shu said his beautiful words modestly.

"Haha, Director Wang has a lot of living expenses." Zhang Chaoyang joked, but did not dwell on it, but said, "In life, you must know how to enjoy it."

"If you only make money and don't spend it, then what's the point? It's better not to make any money."

"Congratulations, Mr. Zhang." Wang Shu praised, "Although I feel the same way, my current strength does not allow it."

"No shit is allowed." Zhang Chaoyang didn't believe Wang Shu's nonsense at all and said, "When I get back to the capital, I will take you to buy two Ferraris and then take you around."

"Then, I will open another bottle of 82 Lafite and give you a taste."

Zhang Chaoyang patted Wang Shu on the shoulder and said with a smile, "While you are young now, you have to live a more coquettish life, otherwise you will regret it later when you are old."

After saying that, he winked at Wang Shu and said, "You have now won the Best Screenplay Award in Cannes, and you have also won the Cannes Best Actress."

"After returning to China, there will definitely be many actresses who are eager to connect with you."

"I'm telling you, it's okay to connect, but don't have real feelings."

"You were really emotional today, but you have to wear a hat tomorrow."

"So, you can find ten or eight people to fall in love with, but you can't have real feelings, you know?"

"Also, you have to know how to give some money when it's over."

"This money is called having a beginning and an end. It can save a lot of trouble and avoid future troubles."

Wang Shu saw that what Zhang Chaoyang said was clear and logical, and couldn't help but joked: "Mr. Zhang, how come you, an Internet person, know better than me, who is in the entertainment industry?"

"You don't understand this, do you?" Zhang Chaoyang smiled proudly, "Although I work on the Internet, I have a wide range of interests."

"I know a little bit about everything, including some rules in the entertainment industry."

"I see." Wang Shu pretended to be surprised, then changed the subject and asked, "Mr. Zhang, I remember that you seem to have received a doctorate from MIT, right?"

"That's right, what's wrong?" Zhang Chaoyang asked inexplicably. He couldn't understand why Wang Shu suddenly asked this.

"Since you have such a high degree, has Mr. Zhang ever thought about giving lectures?" Wang Shu asked.

"Lecture?" Zhang Chaoyang looked confused and said, "Isn't there nothing fun, nothing delicious, nothing to say? Why waste time going to lecture?"

"So Mr. Zhang has no idea of ​​lecturing?" Wang Shu asked.

Zhang Chaoyang looked at Wang Shu as if he were a fool: "During the lecture time, I drove the Ferrari out for a few laps. Isn't it delicious?"

After a long flight of about ten hours, Wang Shu finally returned to the capital.

After getting off the plane, even though Zhang Chaoyang kindly invited Wang Shu to buy a Ferrari, and then led Wang Shu to drive a Ferrari and live a life of indulgence, Wang Shu still found an excuse to decline.

Zhang Chaoyang felt very sorry for this.

He originally thought of taking Wang Shu as his little brother, and then taking Wang Shu with him to experience the excitement of the capital.

However, Wang Shu doesn’t know how to enjoy it!

pity.

Everyone was very tired after flying for more than ten hours.

After everyone got off the plane, Wang Shu, Jiang Wenli, Qin Hailu, and Fu Dalong also separated and rushed back to rest.

Wang Shu returned to his place of residence, sat on the sofa and took a look at the three-bedroom house that he had lived in for more than a year, and suddenly whispered: "When "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is completed, I will buy a villa. "

He certainly knew that after 08, domestic housing prices would rise as fast as a rocket.

If you invest in buying a house at this time, you will definitely make a profit after 08.

However, he feels that some money can be earned, and some money is better not earned.

Wang Shu had no intention of getting involved in activities like real estate speculation.

At most, he can buy a few villas, one for himself, one for his parents, and the remaining ones for him to live in interchangeably.

Rather than buying a large number of houses and then waiting for house prices to rise.

He wouldn't do such a thing.
