The Crown Prince of Huayu!

Chapter 187 Death from drought
"The innovation and exploration of shooting techniques in "Those Years" has always been what we at the Venice Film Festival are pursuing..."

The award presenter read the award speech above.

offstage.

All eyes have been focused on Han Jiadong in the first row.

There are incredible ones, like the crew of "The Hurt Locker."

Some are excited, such as Theron and Anne Hathaway.

Most of them are envious, admired, and even impressed.

Liu Yifei covered her mouth and looked at Han Jiadong, with tears glistening in her eyes.

Han Jiadong was no longer as calm as before. He was in a daze for three or four seconds, then took a deep breath, stood up, and hugged Liu Yifei, who stood up after him.

"I knew you could do it."

The flash below instantly lit up.

"Of course! It was unanimously selected for the Golden Lion Award. To be honest, this film can be said to be the only highlight of this film festival, and it is also the only gain for me as a judge this time."

After the award ceremony.

Han Jiadong patted her back, let her go, and hugged other members of the crew, as well as acquaintances such as Theron and Anne Hathaway. After accepting their congratulations, he walked onto the stage and stood in front of the crowd. Under the gaze, he took the golden lion and raised it high above his head.

"Let's talk again."

"But you can't tell from your expression at all."

"You have already won the Golden Bear and the Golden Lion. Will you try to win the Palme d'Or next?"

"How happy are you?"

"Pass."

"Do you know what 'very' means?"

"Are you saying that the overall quality of this film festival is not good, so "Those Years" was missed?"

……

"very happy."

"Are you saying that you have exceeded that level?"

"Can I ask Han how you feel now that you have won the Golden Lion Award?"

At the same time, as the only Chinese among the judges, Du Qifeng has also been interviewed by many domestic media.

"Does Director Du personally like the movie "The Girl We Chased Together"? Do you think this movie deserves the Golden Lion?"

As the biggest winner at this film festival, Han Jiadong was naturally besieged by the most media reporters.

Liu Yifei whispered in his ear.

"pass."

"Do you think you can be considered a world-class director now?"

"No, no, with the level of "Those Years", it would be eligible to win the Golden Lion Award at any festival, but it cannot be denied that the overall level of this film festival is indeed not good."

"Jury Chairman Wenders said in an interview that since the organizing committee cannot give too many awards to a film, the award evaluation is like playing chess. Can it be said that the Venice Film Festival's award evaluation also has an egalitarian tendency?"

"Egalitarianism, this, obviously exists."

"Then your award selection process must be very difficult, right?"

"It's like this. We discussed the awards almost all night yesterday, especially the Silver Lion Award for Best Director. I don't think anyone in the entire film festival can compete with Han Jiadong, but obviously everyone doesn't want one person to take away the most important thing. To be honest, I don't like "The Wrestler" that won the last two awards, and I don't think it has the ability to win the best director. Even if it doesn't go to Han Jiadong, Alexei German Jr.'s "Paper Soldiers" It’s also more qualified, but obviously, art has no borders, but awards do.”

"If the Venice Film Festival invites you to be a judge again, will you accept the invitation?"

"I'm afraid not. I'm not old enough now. Maybe they will invite me in another 10 years, and I might come again by then."...

domestic.

It was still dark and it was Sunday again, but Zhang Huijun, the principal of Nortel, got up early.

After receiving the news from Venice, he immediately called people to start hanging the celebration banners that had been prepared in the school.

After doing this, he couldn't help but sigh.

I failed to succeed a few years ago, but I finally made up for my regret this time.

Fortunately, these two days are still the time for freshmen reports.

At dawn, before the freshmen who came to report entered the campus, they were all attracted by the conspicuous banner at the school gate.

"Warm congratulations to Han Jiadong, a second-year postgraduate student of our school, for winning the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival!"

Seeing this, they couldn't help but stop their eager steps to enter the campus.

"Director Han Jiadong won another award?"

"Director Han Jiadong is still in our school?"

"So, we also have a chance to meet senior brother Han Jiadong in school?"

"If I can be favored by Senior Brother Han Jiadong..."

……

Not only freshmen, but even sophomores stopped under the celebration banners hung everywhere.

"Xiao Shuang, when do you think Senior Brother Han will be able to visit us?"

As soon as Kan Qingzi left the dormitory building, he saw the banner hanging at the door of the dormitory. After being shocked, he couldn't help but get angry again.

Zeng Shuang rolled his eyes.

It’s been a year since I entered school, and I haven’t even seen each other in person, and yet I’m so lucky...

At this time, Kan Qingzi was hugging Zeng Shuang from behind, clasping his fingers and counting the family treasures and saying: "There was Zhu Yilong in the last term, Yang Mi in the last term, Tong Liya in the last term, Liu Yifei and Zhang Jiani in the last term, just us. There is no one in this class. Alas, it would have been better if I had come a year earlier.”

"A year ago, did you think you would be selected? Besides, who said we weren't in this class? Didn't the guy named Jing Tian in the class star in Senior Brother Han's work? It was also a movie that was said to have cost over 200 million US dollars. A Hollywood blockbuster should be released within this year.”

"She's different. She can't rely on Senior Brother Han."

"Also, not everyone can have the kind of background that makes people willing to spend more than 100 million to buy a script, and then spend hundreds of millions to make a movie."

"But even if you are not selected by Senior Brother Han, it would be good if you can pass a few rounds of Senior Brother Han's auditions! There is a guy named Zhang Ruoyun in the vocational class with average conditions. Just because he passed one round of Senior Brother Han's auditions, he is now being selected. Hai Run signed to be the leading actor.”

Kan Qingzi couldn't hide his envy. As he spoke, he suddenly let go of Zeng Shuang, straightened up and said, "By the way, I heard that Senior Yang Mi refused to star in the sequel of "Let's Watch the Meteor Shower". Now the crew is auditioning for the female lead. Do you think we should try it too?”

"What? Refuse to star in the sequel to Meteor Shower?"

Zeng Shuang was shocked, his eyes filled with disbelief: "How could she refuse such a popular drama?"

I don't even have the chance if I want to...

"I heard that the sequel was not written by Senior Brother Han."

"But that's also the sequel to Meteor Shower! The first one was so popular, and the sequel will definitely be popular if it's made casually."

"Who says it's not the case! This is probably called death by drought or death by waterlogging. She hooked up with Senior Brother Han, so how can she worry about resources? Naturally, she doesn't like this kind of TV series that are obviously money-making. "

"Then do you think there is hope for newcomers like us who have no experience?"

"No matter if there is hope or not, there is nothing to lose by giving it a try."
