Big names rise

"Director He, is there any suitable role for me in your play?"

Li Bingbing first showed her affections to director He Mu. An actress of her level, apart from going to Hollywood to improve her style, basically only accepts big productions or works of big directors in China. Undoubtedly, He Mu is one of the most reliable big directors in China. , although there is only one series of "Zi Bu Yu" in his works, each of the three films is improving in terms of box office and quality. Everyone knows that He Mu's position as a director has been stabilized, and the three films have made his mainland The box office is the highest among all major mainland directors. At the first Golden Dragon Awards, his "Zi Bu Yu 3" led the nominations, and he himself is the youngest among the best director nominees. ?. .

Now people generally believe that there are four people who can hope to break the box office record of the Chinese-language film "Lost in Thailand", one is He Mu, one is Jiang Wen, one is Zhou Xingchi, and the other is Xu Zheng himself. What, his every move will be closely watched by the public, even if the box office in the future is not as good as "Lost in Thailand", it will not be too bad, and more importantly, the quality of word-of-mouth directed by He Mu is more guaranteed.

Not only did Li Bingbing bluntly say that she was willing to work for Director He, but Yu Feihong, who played an important supporting role in the "Zi Bu Yu" series, also said that if He Mu needed her, she would be on call. preparing. "I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. I don't need many human characters for this new film, and the main characters are not very old. I'm afraid you are not suitable." He Mu said with a smile.

After hearing this, Ning Hao asked, "Could it be another movie like "Zi Bu Yu"?"

"There are not many human characters needed? What does this mean? Could it be a movie with animals like "Wolf Totem" as the protagonist?" Xu Zheng wondered.

He Mu made a fool of himself, "What you said is a bit far-fetched, and also a bit unreliable. When the time comes, everyone will pay attention to the Golden Dragon Awards Gala, and I will reveal some news about the new film on it."

Ning Hao shook his head regretfully. "It's a pity. I can't go to the first Golden Dragon Awards, Mr. He. You are a member of the management committee. You can discuss whether you can stop colliding with Berlin next year. Let alone distracting attention, many directors and actors are on both sides. I can’t take care of both, and it’s not good to go either way.” With He Mu’s words, Ning Hao’s confidence was even stronger, and he was still very uncomfortable when he was forced to change part of the plot of "No Man’s Land". I always feel that there is a certain gap between this and the "No Man's Land" he wanted, but after the final release, the audience was very considerate and gave a high evaluation.

When they arrived in Berlin, He Mu and Ning Hao were a little unfamiliar with their lives. Fortunately, at the airport, they saw the crew of "Massage" starting from Shanghai. The director Lou Ye and He Mu were old acquaintances, and they were frequent visitors to European film festivals. , I used to go to Cannes, but this time I came to Berlin. Although I changed a city, he must be more familiar with He Mu and the others in this three-acre land in Europe. With him, He Mu and the others The trip to Berlin is a little more guaranteed.

Lou Ye was followed by the three male protagonists of "Massage", Qin Hao, Guo Xiaodong and Huang Xuan, and they rushed to the hotel prepared by the film festival organizing committee for them. He Mu had been to the Cannes Film Festival before. In fact, there is still a gap between Berlin and Cannes, but because the film festival is about to open, some stars and entertainment reporters with cameras can often be seen on the streets of Berlin. In the eyes of those yellow-skinned reporters, He Mu and his group are definitely mobile News publishers, follow them for sure.

When they arrived at the hotel, He Mu, Ning Hao and the others saw the crew of "Fireworks in the Day" again. He Mu was not very familiar with the director Diao Yinan, but the male and female protagonists, Liao Fan and Gui Lunmei, knew each other well and could talk. Let's chat about the topic of movies , and soon it was enjoyable, and as a result, the main creators of the four Chinese-language films shortlisted were all present.

Li Bingbing walked on the red carpet alone. She put so much thought into styling, but she didn't want He Mu, an international male star, to steal her limelight, so she sent He Mu to the director.

This year's Berlin Film Festival has a strong lineup. Apart from the four wonderful Chinese-language films that are eye-catching, other good films should not be underestimated. The most watched film is a literary masterpiece with an all-star lineup. It gathers big names such as Ralph Fiennes, Adrien Brody, Edward Norton, and Jude Law. On the red carpet, "The Grand Budapest Hotel As soon as the production team appeared on the stage, the enthusiasm in the venue immediately reached its peak.

In addition, "Boyhood", which was filmed by Richard Linklay for one year, is also considered to be a big hit at this Berlin Film Festival. It is because the issue of scale has long been a hot topic in the film industry, and it is considered one of the most well-known films in the main competition unit of this year's Berlin Film Festival.

After the opening of the film industry, the crew of "A Ladder of Love" held a press conference for reporters, so that the domestic media would have something to write about. Among the four Chinese films, "A Ladder of Love" received the most attention, even without hard work. , Reporters will also wantonly report the news of "Ladder of Love" in the media.

On the same day, He Mu returned to China after watching "The Grand Budapest Hotel". Because he was unable to attend the closing ceremony, he will come again when "Ladder of Love" is screened at the film festival.After returning to China, He Mu did not return directly to the capital, but landed at Chengdu Airport, and then drove to Kangding, where the crew of "Dust Settled" will mainly shoot. )
