Huayu: Director started with art films

Chapter 10 [The social customs of the older generation] Please read
When the father and son walked out of the Emei Film Studio, Li Jian suddenly stopped and said, "Yishu."

Li Yishu looked at his father blankly: "What's wrong, Dad?"

"Dad thought about what you told me last night and felt that this was your one chance. If you miss it, I'm afraid you'll never have that chance again in your life."

Li Jian patted his son's shoulder and said earnestly, "Don't worry about the post-production editing and registration. I will follow up the whole process."

Li Yishu frowned. He probably realized that his father wanted to sell his old face and asked the factory to send the product to the exhibition no matter what.

After all, Li Jian has been an old employee working at Emei Film Studio for nearly 20 years. He still has some connections in the Sichuan-Shu film circle. He is not incapable of pushing his son's work to be registered for the three major European films.

Even though most people would find it ridiculous and disdainful that the father lost his mind for his son, no one would step forward to stop him because they also have children.

The father put all his efforts into begging this time, and if he still doesn't get a response from the factory, then if his children have any problems in the future and ask the factory for help, won't they get no response either?

After all, his father just wanted to register in the name of Emei Factory, and he didn't need Emei Factory to pay for it out of pocket. Even the cost of mailing it abroad was all paid by Li Jian himself.

The factory just issued a name for it.

So as long as my father really put aside his pride, other people in the factory would not only not stop him, but would also say good things about the factory leaders, for the sake of others as well as themselves.

"Dad, if the registration is too troublesome, then we can just register ourselves. I checked and the three major film festivals allowed independent producers to register a long time ago..."

“Independent filmmakers are allowed to apply, but whether they can be taken seriously is another matter.”

Li Jian shook his head and said, "Although Dad has never been abroad and doesn't understand foreigners, I think Western society also values ​​social etiquette."

"Our Emei Film Studio is one of the first six major film studios in China. In the past few years, we have also sent some films to be exhibited abroad. We think it is well-known abroad. In addition to what you analyzed with me yesterday, I think you have an advantage over others if you register under the name of our Emei Studio."

"But……"

"Nothing to worry about."

Li Jianyi raised his hand and interrupted his son. "When you told me you wanted to make a movie, weren't you quite opinionated?"

"Besides, you have already done an in-depth study and analysis of the three major European film festivals. How can you not have confidence? A real man sticks to his word. Since you want to sign up for the exhibition, then work hard and strive for the best."

Hearing this, Li Yishu hesitated to speak, and finally sighed in her heart and said nothing more.

Just as his father Li Jian said, Li Yishu really wanted to give it a try.

The quality of the movie "The Mountain, the Man, the Dog" is not bad. Although many people think that this movie is a bit boring, it expresses the indescribable father-son relationship of the Chinese people very well. Moreover, the movie does not sing too much about the so-called suffering, which is one of the reasons why Li Yishu likes this movie very much.

My father is working hard to register for the exhibition.

Li Yishu naturally couldn't just go back to school and continue studying, so he took another half-month leave. He went to the editing room of the studio early in the morning and expressed to the editing masters how he wanted to present the film scenes.

After coming out of the editing room, Li Yishu turned around and went to the dubbing studio not far away, and expressed to the dubbing teacher the musical interlude she wanted.

After finishing his thoughts, Li Yishu hesitated and said, "Um...Uncle Fang...I have something I want to ask you."

"what's up?"

"I just have a melody in my head and I want to record it, but I have never studied composition..."

“Can you hum it?”

"can!"

"Then hum for me."

"it is good!"

Li Yishu immediately hummed the classic light rock song "That's Why You Go Away".

This is a song from an album released by the Danish rock band Michael School in 1995.

This song is very classic and is one of the few English songs that Lee Ye-su can sing in standard.

The reason why Li Yishu learned to sing this song was because that year he was pursuing a girl from Beijing Dance Academy, and she liked this English song very much. So he learned it specifically in order to pursue her.

However, Li Yishu did not win the girl's heart in the end, but it was a blessing in disguise that he learned to speak fairly fluent English.

First love is always impressive.

Lee Yi-su often listens to and sings this song when she is alone.

After so many years, the memory is still fresh.
