Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 224: Lao Mouzi: Deal!

The Beijing Film Academy, which is already famous for its bustle, now has two more scenic spots.

The little "Liu Yifei" stands in military posture under the scorching sun, while the big "Jingtian" stays in the classroom of the directing/photography department with a book in his arms.

The new and old generations of school beauties gathered in the cafeteria at noon, with their heads put together, whispering to each other while eating.

The boys from the acting department, with restless hormones, always "happen" to pass by and are dumbfounded.

What are they talking about?

Lens? Picture? Color? Composition? Light and shadow?

Wait! What are they going to do?
Since Jing Tian was still in military training, his leave application was not announced by the teachers of the Performance Department.

Liu Yifei’s residency in the Directing/Photography Department’s classroom was surprising, but not unexpected.

Isn’t Buffett Zhao studying for a master’s degree in directing?
What's more, Liu Yifei had been rumored to be favored by the director/photography department before graduation, which is normal!
Therefore, more discussion focuses on the beauty of the two.

As a result, Yang Mi, who was far away in Venice, was unknowingly robbed by the newcomer and the abdicated one. Not only did she fall off the "hot search list", but even her position as the school beauty was in jeopardy.

"Whoo~"

"Whoo~"

Continuous deep breathing!

"Gulu~Gulu~"

Drink more water!
But even so, Yang Mi still couldn't cool down the temperature of her cheeks, couldn't calm the heaving bumps.

Too yellow!
How bold!

Yang Mi closed her eyes, her mind filled with tangled images.

Tang Wei was breathing heavily, his eyes were blurry.

Liang Chaowei tensed up and kept retorting in different ways.

Professional knowledge tells Yang Mi: There must be misaligned shooting!
Common sense tells Yang Mi: long lens, close-up! How wrong can the misalignment be?

Hiss~so exciting!

Thinking of this, Yang Mi quickly left the screening room of "No Masturbation", without bothering to check the reactions of the audience in the screening room of "Secret", and hurriedly slipped back to the hotel room.

"du~du~du~"

"Hey, Senpai!"

The person he contacted turned out to be Sun Li, who had temporarily disappeared from the circle.

The original number is no longer used. This is the new number that Yang Mi got through QQ.

"What's the matter, Mimi?"

"Senior, No Porn is so fucking horrible, I just finished watching it!" Yang Mi shouted excitedly, "Everything is exposed! Everything is done!"

"It's a good thing the senior didn't come!"

"Otherwise, you can just move in and live in the No Porn screening room!"

Hearing this, Sun Li smiled.
"Not really, Mimi."

"If Jiecheng really wants to watch it, why does he need to go to the screening room? Have you forgotten that Director Yimou is the chairman of the jury of this Venice Film Festival?"

"Jiecheng can definitely see all the footage from Director Li through Director Yimou. Those are the real 'uncut' footage, and the content is much richer than the finished film."

"That's right!" Yang Mi nodded while holding the phone, "But Tang Wei is a little small, emmm, still a little small, and doesn't match the senior's preferences."

"Bah! Mimi, what are you talking about?" Sun Li blushed and spat on the other end of the phone, "Can't you be more reserved?"

"Hehe, senior sister, we are just chatting in private, there is no need to be reserved."

"Am I wrong? Doesn't the senior like Yukiko's big, mature buttocks? Oh, yes, and buttocks. Last time I heard Dani say that the senior often brainwashed Jay, saying that buttocks are bigger than shoulders."

Yang Mi kept talking.

Sun Li listened and glanced down.

Well, it’s a lot bigger!

The buttocks are also rounder.

If it was this scale at the beginning, we should have been able to squeeze Jiecheng a few more times, right?

As he thought about it, Sun Li's cheeks began to heat up.

While stroking her belly which was beginning to show, she responded to Yang Mi's shouting.

Finally he hung up the phone and stood up, holding his waist.

"Mom, can you take a walk with me?"

"Wait! I'll sweep the floor first!"

Mother Sun responded, and looking at her daughter's appearance, she couldn't help but mutter:

"Look at you, you got married suddenly! And got divorced suddenly!"

"It's ok that your father and I never met anyone named Zheng, but you're pregnant!"

"What should we do after the child is born? Zheng has no explanation at all?"

"Li Li, if you don't want to see him, tell me his contact information and I'll go find him with your dad!"

"Okay, Mom~ Didn't I tell you two? The child is mine, I will raise him!" Sun Li grinned, hugged her mother's arm and acted coquettishly, "From now on, I will take care of your granddaughter and live a down-to-earth life."

"Okay! Since she's my granddaughter, why not give her the surname Sun? Doesn't Sun Duoduo sound better than Zheng Duoduo?"

"Boom boom boom!"

Yang Mi had just adjusted herself for a while when there was a knock on the door and Dani's voice.

"Mi Mi, open the door quickly."

"I'm coming!"

"Mi Mi, where have you been? Didn't we agree to go to the cinema together?"

"I went there too, and I just got back."

"Then why didn't I see you?"

"Emmm, I went to check out our competitors!" Yang Mi stretched out her hand and counted on her fingers, saying, "I've been circulating them one by one these days, such as "Millet and Mullet", "I'm Not There", and "Free World"

I read almost all the main competition units, except for "No Masturbation".

While Dani is confused, take the initiative to ask questions and gain the right to speak.

"By the way, Dani, how is our "SECRET"? How is the audience's response today?"

Hearing this, Dani's attention was immediately diverted, and she said happily:

"pretty good!"

"The translator summed it up: lightly sour, slightly sweet, without any strong colors. But this is the taste of youth and love!"

As he said this, he covered his mouth and smiled.
"It's just that the leading actor's acting was so bad that it lowered the quality of the movie."

"Mimi, you don't know that Jay was waiting for your translation with great anticipation and even insisted on having a complete translation."

"Hahaha! As a result, he has now gone back to his room and shut himself in. He said that he cannot delay his creation, and he has to shut himself in even if he is in Venice."

Pause, adjust your breathing,
"Mi Mi, do you think we can win the prize?"

"Forget about the Golden Lion for Best Film and the Silver Lion for Best Director. I know that's impossible~"

"what about others?"

Dani raised her head and waited cautiously. Her evasive little eyes were very pleasing.

But Yang Mi was not in the mood to be amused. As Dani asked the question, she suddenly became nervous.

The noise has been going on for a long time in a meeting room of the Venice Film Association.

Lao Mouzi sat calmly in the main seat. Having quit smoking for a long time, he inexplicably wanted to light a cigarette, or crack some melon seeds, so as to match the liveliness.

The two female judges are Jane Campion and Catherine Breillat.

The former directed his first short film "Fruit Peel" in 82 and won the Cannes Short Film Palme d'Or.

In 93, "The Piano Lesson" and "Farewell My Concubine" jointly won the Palme d'Or for Best Film.

The latter also often appears in the main competition units of the three major film festivals. At the same time, as a French director, the "artistic" attributes of his works also inherit the French tradition.

It thinks about gender relations from a female perspective, with a primitive, wild and powerful style.

In particular, the strong sense of absurdity reflected by the amplifier guan has caused a lot of controversy.

She is known as the "godmother of female erotic liberation" who walks the "tightrope between sensuality and lust".

To describe it in Chinese is: a female hooligan who is madly testing the boundaries between art and breaking the law!
There are four male judges, plus Lao Mouzi, a total of five.

Among them was Alessandro, who competed with Zhen Jiecheng at Cannes last year and won the Best Director Award for "Babel". Listening to the six people arguing and expressing their opinions, Lao Mouzi clearly felt that Venice was moving towards American films, or in other words, the Oscars.

This becomes even more obvious when the discussion comes to the main competition unit.

The old man didn't care about this.

Venice is not owned by my family, and I am in a hurry to get back to Building No. 3 in Beiyuan to work on the Olympics!

You guys can do whatever you want, as long as you respect me as the chairman of the jury and let me exercise the "benefits" that I am entitled to!
Let’s discuss this together. You respect me, I respect you, and we can make progress together!

Jia Zhangke's "Useless" has been selected as the Best Documentary Award in the Horizon Unit.

Although he and Lao Mouzi had grievances and disputes, Lao Mouzi was still very magnanimous at the international film festival.

So, when the Italian judge Emmanuel nominated Bernardo Bertolucci as the winner of the Special Golden Lion Award, Lao Mouzi agreed immediately!

After entering the main competition unit, Mexican director Alejandro proposed that "Lazona", a co-production between Mexico and Matador, be the future Golden Lion Award, and Lao Mouzi continued to vote in favor!
You can suggest the main idea, I support it completely.

As the leader, I am so democratic. If you were to oppose my proposal, wouldn’t that be inappropriate?

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The old man knocked on the table, attracting the attention of six people.

"What do you think about "SECRET"? "

The six people frowned slightly when they heard this.

Regarding this film, it should not have been in the main competition unit.

The leading actor's acting skills are too immature and the content of the script is too superficial.

But the pictures, colors, light and shadow, as well as the soundtrack, create a language of photography that is unforgettable, even in the Venice Film Festival where "art" is crowded.

After watching the movie, everyone felt that it was a waste of talent to choose such an actor to use such a wonderful shot in such a script!
The overall style is coordinated and unified, and the details are everywhere, blending together smoothly, with almost no abruptness.

Alejandro commented:

Last year in Cannes, Jie Cheng Zhen made me believe that talent is unreasonable, even in the profession of director, which requires the most accumulated foundation.

Now, he no longer needs specific subject matter to carry his style, but can easily use his more mature understanding to control different stories.

Therefore, it was natural for me to be shortlisted for the main competition unit.

After all, leaving aside the apparent director and leading man, the all-too-familiar names in the crew list are enough to make Venice open its doors to welcome this extremely beautifully shot work.

If you are shortlisted, you will be shortlisted. If you win,
Lao Mouzi sensed the hesitation of the crowd and continued to speak,

“How about the Special Jury Award?”

Before the Silver Lion for Best Director was established, the Special Jury Award was second only to the Golden Lion for Best Film.

Nowadays, the Venice Film Festival has begun discussing the establishment of an award similar to the Cannes Grand Jury Prize and the Berlin Grand Jury Prize.

What is certain is that after the establishment of this award, the influence of the Special Jury Award will further decline and it will completely become a consolation prize.

"Special Jury Award? How can this be possible?"

"I object!"

The two female judges spoke up immediately.

One side is pushing the French film "Millet and Mullet" to compete for the award, while the other side is trying to win the honor for the American film "I'm Not There".

It is true that the Special Jury Award is declining, but it can still be considered a fairly delicious piece of cake.

"Although the scenes of "SECRET" are full of artistic beauty, the immature acting of the lead actor ruined the height it should have had."

“Although SECRET is good, the shallowness of the story is its fatal weakness.”

"Although. But."

One reason after another was offered.

The old man didn't say a word, just stared! Stared blankly!

Until the two female judges saw it and stopped speaking.

Catherine Breillat first glanced at the nameplate of "Chairman of the Jury", and then remembered the various supports that Lao Mouzi had given to her suggestions during the meeting.

grit your teeth,
“The Special Jury Award is inappropriate!”

"I think the Best Technical Contribution Award is more appropriate."

Hearing this, Jane Campion quickly chimed in.

"Katherine is right, I thought so too."

Turning to look at the others,
"What do you think?"

"Ah, yes, yes!"

"Yes."

"me too!"

Hearing the unanimous voices of approval ringing in his ears, Lao Mouzi slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

The window opening theory is indeed useful, Mr. Shu Ren was right!
But... this was proposed by you as the judges, and it has nothing to do with me.

Now as the host, I would like to add a little more code based on your unanimous agreement. That should be reasonable, right?
Are you allowed to make a "fair" selection, but I am not allowed to make a "fair" suggestion?
Then wouldn't it be a waste for me to be the master?
Thinking about it, he smiled again.

After some heated and friendly discussions, everyone finally reached a consensus again.

As the host, Lao Mouzi grinned, slapped the table, and subconsciously shouted in his native language:

"make a deal!"

9 month 8 day.

The Venice Film Festival has come to its closing ceremony.

Liu Ye, who was at the Huabiao Awards ceremony a few days ago, appeared on the Venice red carpet with the crew of the closing film "Tian Tang Kou".

Shu Qi's lip color matches the red dress perfectly, but Xiao Lu next to her is not at all outdone.

The delicate and fruitful fruits form a sharp contrast with the delicate and beautiful temperament.

When interviewed by reporters, Liu Ye did not forget to advertise "Jinling! Jinling!"

He also said: "Lu Chuan always gives actors more creative space, which I also appreciate very much." (Original words)

Emmm, Jiang Wen gave a big thumbs up and added a sentence “damn it”.

When the crew of "No Porn" stepped onto the red carpet, there were flashes of light all around.

Tang Wei wore a white floor-length dress with a high waistline that highlighted her slender figure, making her look pure and charming.

Even Yang Mi couldn't help but exclaimed:

"Wow! So beautiful!"

Beauty is not just about figure and appearance.

A more confident smile!
The Hollywood army supported the starlight of the closing ceremony. Although Pitt, Depp and Clooney left two days before the closing ceremony, Heath Ledger replaced them in time.

Jennifer Lawrence swayed on the red carpet, and reporters accurately captured her gentle look back, praising her "invincible back".

In response, Yang Mi first glanced at the twisting big butt.

I am very envious.

Going further up, the four words "tiger back and bear waist" inexplicably appeared in my mind and I couldn't get rid of them.

Forget it!

If a big butt comes at the cost of this, then there’s no need!

"Mi Mi, get ready, it's our turn!"

Jie Lun rubbed his hands repeatedly. Although he had prepared himself mentally, he was still quite nervous when he arrived at the scene.

With Dani’s fist pumping encouragement, and with Li Pingbin and Ji Jianming’s smiling encouragement.

Take a deep breath,

"Gan!"

"I'm Xu Jinglei, what do I have to look forward to?"

“No expectations, no tension!”

"Take whatever award is given, it's all for free anyway!"

Open the car door,

"Horse riding!"

"set off!"
