1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 104 High School Entrance Examination is Good
Although it can be seen that the organizers in Lin'an have tried their best to make this award ceremony a success.

But what about this?
In summer, it looks silly and rustic.

Well, but in Wei Huili's opinion it was very grand - she didn't even dare to take a step before entering the door.

"What's wrong? Have you become a lady from a noble family?" Xia Tian laughed at her.

Sure enough, after this stimulation, she felt much better.

People these days really still dress very simply, especially in formal occasions.

The men's clothes are mostly navy blue and black, while the women's clothes have some colorful embellishments.

The setting didn't look like an award ceremony, but more like some kind of conference!
There was also a row of tables covered with white cloth with hollow lace, where a row of experts and leaders sat, and porcelain cups were placed on the tables...

It seems like a seminar!
First the leader spoke, then the representative spoke, then someone else spoke... and finally the list of winners was announced.

"The winners of the Best Feature Film are "Legend of Tianyun Mountain" and "Night Rain in Bashan Mountain"!"

"Legend of Tianyun Mountain" is the work of director Xie Jin. Director Xie is now a big director and very famous in the industry.

He also won the Best Director Award!

"Legend of Tianyun Mountain" and the later "The Shepherd" and "Furong Town" are called the Reflection Trilogy. Xie Jin can be said to be an iconic monument in the history of Chinese film.

The focus of these three films is not on criticism, but on discussing the beauty and ugliness of human nature, which gives these three films a charm that transcends time.

This is something that those scar movies can't compare to.

There is a line in "Legend of Tianyun Mountain":
"Old cows, broken cars, broken roads! How can we modernize Tianyun Mountain in this way?"

"Xiao Lingyun, how come you've also caught this fashionable disease? It's easy to use satire, sarcasm, and satire on certain phenomena in our lives to express your latest opinions. What problems can they solve?"

Reading this line forty years later, it is still worth savoring!
Zhang Yu won the Best Actress Award for her performances in "Lush Mountain Love" and "Night Rain in Bashan Mountain".

But there was only one nomination for the Best Actor award, which was vacant!
Because the judges felt that everyone's acting in the play "Night Rain in Bashan" was extremely superb, and it was the outstanding performance of everyone that shaped the film.

Therefore, an additional award for Best Supporting Actor and Actress was set up to be given to all the actors in this film.

The film "Night Rain in Bashan" received high praise and eventually won five awards.

This movie is really good. The changes in the mentality of all the characters in the movie reflect the psychological changes of all people in this era. Very interesting!
It must be said that at this time, Zhang Yu is really popular!

After "Lush Mountain Love", there is "Night Rain in Bashan", and this year there is also "Small Street".

Each one is very topical and has a huge influence.

In the movie "Little Street", she dressed up as a man and the short hairstyle she cut became popular and was called Zhang Yu's hairstyle!

The ending of this movie is open-ended and has also caused huge discussion~
And Zhang Yu will this year become the first actor in Chinese film history to win four major awards in the same year: the Golden Rooster Award, Hundred Flowers Award, Wenhui Award, and Government Award.

But she will soon go abroad and become a Chinese American.

A big part of the reason why Liu Xiaoqing was able to fight her way out of this difficult situation where there were so many gods fighting and a bunch of sisters above her was that she was persistent enough!

……

The film festival is over, and I have to go back to acting harder.

Xia Tian played the leading role and portrayed the fool vividly, while also helping the crew with some work within his ability.

From taking care of foxes and guiding the fox actors in acting, to moving props, scenery, lighting, and announcing, etc.

She is good-looking, hardworking and sweet-spoken, who wouldn’t like her?

Foxes love it!
It's June now and the filming of the movie is almost coming to an end.

This was far below the shooting schedule.

In order to achieve perfection, Director Lei is now reshooting many shots that may be used, and sometimes adding some scenes.

The main reason is that summer scenes save too much film - if this continues, Director Lei will not be able to explain to the investors?
What? Any money left?
Did you produce shoddy products? How do you want our accountant to account for it?

Director Lei never thought that one day he would have such a happy trouble.

A few days later, the crew was interviewed and photographed by "Popular Movies".

At this time, "Popular Movies" had already become the largest-circulation publication in the country.

In just the past few years, the circulation of "Popular Movies" has reached a peak of over 9 million copies!
"So, we are going to be on "Popular Movies" too?!" Wei Huili felt a little dizzy, almost fainting!
"If nothing unexpected happens, you will appear in the August issue of Popular Movies!"

You know, last month they went to watch the Golden Rooster Awards, and Zhang Yu, who won the Best Actress award, was on the cover of "Popular Movies" in January and this month!
Can we also be on "Popular Movies"?

Did happiness come too fast?!
I don’t have too many feelings in the summer. It’s not the cover, so why should I be so excited?
This seems more like a form of promotion for the movie, and feels like something that filmmakers in Hong Kong would come up with.

After taking a lot of photos, the staff of Popular Movies left satisfied.

Wei Huili was a little dissatisfied: "Tell me, did they take more pictures of you?!"

"Oh, yes, more!"

"What do you mean? Am I ugly?"

Xia Tian looked around and said, "Let's see who I'm competing with~"

By June 6, the filming of Xia Tian's scenes was completely completed.

Director Lei already felt that there was nothing left to shoot, so he planned to shoot some scenery and empty shots in the remaining days to facilitate post-editing. As for Xia Tian, ​​it was time for him to go back. The high school entrance exam was coming up!

I originally thought that the filming would last until at least early July, and I planned to let Xia Tian go back home in late June to take exams, and then come back to continue filming after the exams.

I didn't expect it to be so smooth, it was a bit scary, I don't need to come back.

That afternoon, Xia Tian had a simple meal with friends from the crew, which marked the end of the filming.

After sending the fox actor back to the zoo, I left my mailing address with Wei Huili and others and boarded the train the next day.

The tickets were all prepared by Sister Han, and they were sleeper berths, very particular~
On the way, Xia Tian was holding the remittance slip for two thousand yuan, and he felt a little guilty about earning such money.

How about I bite a lighter for you?
One day and one night later, Xia Tian returned to Yanjing.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Xia were waiting for him at the station. They took him home and asked about his well-being very warmly.

Mother Xia: "Son, you've suffered so much! You've lost weight!"

Xia Tian: Yes, southern food is too sweet and I can’t get used to it. The bowls are small. I eat five or six bowls in one meal and I’m losing weight.

Xia Tian first called Director Lei from a public phone in the alley to tell them that he had arrived and not to worry - to let them know he was safe.

At that time, several alleys shared one telephone, and when a call came in, you had to say who was calling from which household, and then someone would go and call someone to answer the phone.

The next day, Xia Tian asked Da Chun to inform Milan that he was back, and then he could concentrate on resting and wait until the high school entrance examination was over.

On June 6th, Xia Tian and Dachun entered the examination room.

Among the four people, Dachun was the most nervous about this exam.

The subjects for the high school entrance examination are Chinese, mathematics, physics, chemistry, politics and English - but English does not count.

And this year a new sport was added.

Dachun is not worried about the sports item, but he is worried about the glasses.

Two days have passed, and it’s finally over.

Dachun was happy. After comparing his answers with Xia Tian and Yan Jing, he felt that he was quite capable. Was my guess so accurate?!
As a result, when Xia Tian asked, he became Spartan!
For example, the classical Chinese translation of the language: My wife praises me because she loves me.

Dachun's translation is: If you are prettier than my wife, please contact me privately.

You are so beautiful! How can Xu Gong compare to you?

Dachun's translation is: What are you bragging about? How could Teacher Xu let you pass?

Xia Tian: "Dachun, you are different from others. Don't waste your time on studying~"

……

After the exams were over, Xia's parents dared to ask about the filming.
Is it going smoothly? Is the director strict? And so on!
Xia's mother is more concerned about whether Xia Tian has suffered any hardship or grievances.

Dad Xia is more concerned about the process and feelings of making a movie.

I heard that Xia Tian also went to the first Golden Rooster Awards ceremony. She was very excited, as if she had been there too.

Afterwards, Xia Tian went to the secret base and found Milan in his room as expected.

"You're finally back!" Milan was so excited that even Xia Tian was scared!
Milan was really anxious during the two months of filming!
A letter every three days! I can't wait to fly over!
Now that Xia Tian is back, she wants to eat people!
Xia Tian: Big sister, I'm still young, how can you do that to me? I'm just a newborn! Please let me go!
Milan: I won’t let go!

Xia Tian: You are not normal. This is a kind of pathological love.

Milan: I know, my sister is sick, can you treat her? (Blinking eyes~)

What to do? She is so good at it!

Milan shamelessly insisted on living in Xia Tian's house, raised his finger, and said with a righteous look on his face: "I swear to God, I will never touch you."

Xia Tian: That seems to be the opposite? You are not going to choose between a beast and worse than a beast?!

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, the door handle of Xia Tian's room moved!

Xia Tian asked, "What are you going to do?"

Milan: "I want to see if you are covered with a blanket, in case you catch a cold."

Sure enough, boys have to learn to protect themselves when they are outside.

……

Keep everything simple at this time, as the results of the high school entrance examination will be out in a few days.

Xia Tian got full marks in math, physics and English, two points short of full marks in Chinese, and 50 points out of 60 in politics. There was no problem in getting into high school.

And his friends were not bad either, just as Dachun had predicted before, his guess was correct.

Yan Jing has good grades and is expected to be a college student in the future.

Xiaodong is doing fine and will have no problem going to high school.

Dachun guessed well this time, maybe because of Tainai's blessing, he also passed the line.

All good~
