Chapter 407, A Worthy Opponent?
Window of Asian Film.
This award is won by the host country, which is a tradition.
It is inevitable.
Since the award was established, it has never been broken.
It is true that this tradition has not been broken.
But anyone with eyes can see who the chief judge wants to give this award to, who is the uncrowned king, and who deserves this award.
To which person, which movie, which work, are all presented here very vividly.
At this time.
In the backstage of the Busan Film Festival, it was also a mess. Various calls were made to Song Shina.
Accountability?
Not really.
It really is not.
At least, they all have a certain degree of doubt about her choice.
Why did she make such a choice.
"Movies, art, they are tools to make money, sponsors, investors, producers, directors, actors, from top to bottom, in fact, for everyone, film art is just such a thing"
At this time, Song Shina said softly.
"Many things are understandable. Money is the driving force of everything. It is normal, including me, who climbed up for fame, status and money. But we seem to have forgotten another function of movies."
"It can actually record a person's life, whether it is good or bad, fictional or real. We all get a feeling by peeping into that person's condensed life."
"The Crucible" records the story of a brave teacher from a small county town in China, a marginal group, a school. We need fictional and refreshing stories, and we also need reality."
"Our movies need..."
"Li Yun."
At this time, Xie Qingya, who was at the venue, was not a fool.
He also understood the organizer's intention.
His meaning was actually very clear.
He had already made one thing very clear.
This "The Crucible" is the uncrowned Asian Film Window. Maybe because of too many off-site factors, he couldn't get this award.
But not getting it doesn't mean that the award is not his.
It doesn't mean that this award is not Li Yun's.
The so-called uncrowned king probably feels like this.
"Thank you, Mr. Wang, for bringing me to see the world."
"Hmph"
Wang Chen's face darkened and he left the table angrily
As if he was very dissatisfied with the praise for domestic films
He said it was for art.
In fact, he was just a comprador.
At this time, Xie Qingya laughed faintly.
But at the same time.
She was also looking at Li Yun.
"October Besieged City. Director Li, I hope you can give me a little surprise."
At least in Asia.
A person who can make a name for himself.
I hope Zhang Mouzi is not the only one.
Cloud Girl.
It is a strange name on the Chinese Internet.
For the Internet channels, the matter of the Asian Film Window is definitely not something that can be concealed.
The filmmaker who can make the Chinese proud and go abroad is not only Zhang Mouzi.
Now it seems that there is one more.
It is rumored in the industry that he has some mental problems, but he looks very cheerful. He is a new male director, a first-line male actor, and an excellent actor who can play against veteran actors.
At the same time, Liu Qianqian, who has collaborated with Li Yun many times, has naturally become the so-called Yun Girl.
However.
There are also more people who oppose this title.
Liu Qianqian was not made famous by Li Yun, she has this ability.
It is a mutual achievement.
The achievement of mutual accomplishment.
But no matter what.
The name of "The Crucible" appeared on the Chinese Internet again.
A good movie that earns foreign exchange.
A movie that goes abroad.
It is very popular on Douban and Hupu.
Regarding this matter.
It also has an impact on Li Yun.
"Hahaha! Li Zi, you can't imagine how ugly the guy named Jin Wuxuan looked when you became the uncrowned best film at the Busan Film Festival. In the end, he was still stubborn and looked like he couldn't believe it."
This time, Jiang Chenggang was very happy.
He really felt comfortable and refreshed from the bottom of his heart.
Of course, there may be some shock in it. Going international sounds like a very empty pie.
Jiang Chenggang never thought about this before.
But now the box office is also there.
Foreign exchange earned from exports in other countries.
Not only that, but he also made achievements in awards.
In the past, he would never have dared to think of such a thing.
Double recognition in business and art.
He suddenly understood a little.
Why Li Yun did not choose to go to Hollywood.
Maybe if it was Li Yun.
He could really say that arrogant word.
It is a loss for Hollywood not to see me.
It is not that I lost the opportunity of Hollywood.
Li Yun is the craziest person Jiang Chenggang has ever met.
He is also the most talented person.
That kind of magical talent that makes people intoxicated.
That is the ability that Li Yun possesses.
"It's okay." Li Yun did not feel too much.
No matter how enthusiastic the reaction from the outside world is.
How strong.
Li Yun's feeling.
Or.
This Busan Film Festival is just one of the steps.
Not enough.
Not enough.
Li Yun deeply felt that this was not enough.
More is needed.
Just visiting the Asian Movie Window cannot satisfy your ultimate desires.
In other words, it cannot satisfy the ultimate desires of these personalities.
I also need more and more complex resources to shoot higher-budget, more ambitious movies.
The siege of the city followed in October.
And the second half of the New Three Kingdoms.
At the same time, it also has its own original movie and a completely original script.
But in the meantime, there is an absolute benefit to the Asian Film Festival. What he helps is to make the project more popular.
The movie "Let the Bullets Fly" has a slightly abstract title from various angles, and it doesn't seem that straightforward.
Even Jiang Wen, who was famous back then, only started to become popular in the commercial field after filming Let the Bullets Fly.
Publicity is very important
Back then, the commercial performance of Let the Bullets Fly was not that great. It was only after the fermentation of the times that its value was gradually discovered.
The quality is unquestionable.
Let the bullets fly and he is enough to become a classic of the decade.
Li Yun has no doubt about this.
Just if there is no result at that time.
Then it's nothing.
The current results of Let the Bullets Fly will affect the resources for your next work.
Today’s Asian film window is like a booster for the next bullets to fly.
Let the heat fly for a while.
at the same time.
Also in a very complicated mood was Liu Lili.
She has never forgotten how she felt when she saw her daughter's face on this international stage.
It's a joy.
A kind of loss.
A kind of pride and a kind of relief.
All in all, it's very complicated.
His daughter is indeed walking on the road as he expected.
But the path he took was completely opposite to his own.
Completely different from what I expected.
She didn’t make her debut in Hollywood.
Not relying on any Hollywood power.
Completely relying on myself and Li Yun. At home.
accomplished this feat.
This is a little slap in Liu Lili's face. She always said that only by relying on herself, only with Hollywood and big companies behind her, can she get ahead.
The actions of the two people at this time.
This illustrates the mistake.
Who said that people from abroad can’t see it in China?
Who says a film shot in China can't be spread all over the world?
Li Yun can do it.
Did this.
Rely entirely on yourself.
In this part of Asia, we have made our own name.
Let them know that there is an insider named Li Yun in China.
A strange person in the country.
A miracle is a miracle.
Now I don’t know which circle he belongs to.
It seems that he is present in every circle.
This has never happened in the past.
In China, the Beijing, Shanghai, and Xiangjiang circles are in a state of conflict with each other and are separated from each other. They will always be a piece of loose sand.
Never before has anyone been able to fully combine their resources.
Then Hollywood is monolithic.
This is one of the reasons why Liu Lili is despairing about the current situation of the domestic film industry.
Many things are closed like the feudal era.
There is no way to develop my own art.
Until today she saw someone.
Looks like Li Yun.
Just telling her.
This guy doesn't play by the rules.
Looks like he doesn't belong to any circle.
Very handsome.
If someone wins an international award.
for all circles.
It's a great joy.
They will use his name to promote their own circle and claim that he is the pride of their own film industry.
When Li Yun won this uncrowned award in Asia, many people were happy, and the first one to bear the brunt was Lu Zhengguang.
Li Yun is a serious member of the Air Force.
Don't go too far, just be happy.
However, people in the Xiangjiang circle were also happy. Like Liu Tianwang and others, they were also happy and joyful.
As an actor.
Both Liu Tianwang and Tony Leung have won awards at Asian Film Festivals.
But as a director, it seems that no one in the Hong Kong circle has gotten it.
No.
The most I can get is a New Wave Award.
And this year's Asian Film Window is actually clearly for Li Yun.
It was just that some traditional things were not given to Li Yun.
In fact, this is already considered an uncrowned glory.
And the Beijing circle has been closely connected with Li Yun before.
This time he didn't speak.
Uncharacteristically silent.
In the past, when Zhang Mouzi won one and a half international awards, there would be uproar outside, but this time it was a rookie in the film and television industry, and Li Yun won such an honor.
They were so silent.
But Zhang Mouzi's side was making loud announcements.
I wish the whole world knew he was nominated.
But obviously, it was Li Yun who received the greatest honor.
In the Asian Film Window, there is a full minute of outstanding time. If it were not for the organizer, then the award for this film would already belong to Li Yun.
Anyone who is a filmmaker knows this.
The unspoken rule is that the organizer will give priority to works from its own country.
Prioritize your own country's score.
This is an unspoken rule that no one will refuse.
If there is anyone who can change his destiny against the will of heaven.
That must be made known to everyone.
As for why.
The people in the Li family understand very well.
"Because he is not from the circle, it's that simple." Li Yuxuan said lightly, and he played with the beads in his hand.
Give your own review.
Because Li Yun didn't explicitly say that he was from Beijing.
So the brothers from these big courtyards in Beijing circle.
That's why Li Yun was not included in the category of congratulations.
"It's really stupid. It's so ridiculous that such a promising new director is just starting a movement in his own circle. You're right, brother."
Li Mo didn't take it seriously.
He just silently watched the recording and broadcast of the Busan Film Festival over and over again.
That announces the existence of the uncrowned king.
Even the film that won the Asian Film Window only used 15 seconds of silhouettes, but Li Yun's The Furnace took a full minute to cut.
That's one thing that the entire judging panel is sure of.
If this melting pot were a movie from their own country.
Well, the list at Asian Film Window is definitely a melting pot.
Irrefutable.
"Okay brother, if you want to talk to him, I can go on your behalf." Li Yuxuan looked at Li Modu and teased: "After all, my relationship with my nephew should be pretty good."
"No need"
At this time, Li Modu turned off the computer.
He said calmly.
"The promotion of my movie is about to begin. His getting the so-called Asian Film Window this time will only add a little more visibility to his new work, and it will not affect the overall situation."
The front line fights against the second line, and small costs fight against big costs.
No matter how you look at it, I have the advantage.
"You know what I'm talking about is not his performance in this movie, but his potential. Just think about how old he is, how many roles he has played, and how much help he has behind him. But at this time Such an impressive result.”
At this time, Li Yuxuan said as if he was proud.
"Compared to you back then, you are already the most talented director in the entire Beijing circle. But now, the son you abandoned has shown a more powerful talent than you. He is now Not your descendant."
"It's about the opponent you need to face openly, the person you need to fight seriously, and the person you need to defeat seriously."
At this moment.
Li Yuxuan looked at his brother with burning eyes.
"Aren't you helping him? Let me get serious, what are you doing?"
"It is precisely because I helped him that I want you to be serious, brother. The edge of a sword is sharpened, and you are very suitable to be your son's whetstone." Li Yuxuan squinted and smiled: "You can be his stepping stone. I think this is appropriate.”
This attitude made Li Mo very disgusted.
That kind of aboveboard teasing yourself.
But Li Modu had to admit it.
Li Yun's hard power is definitely not that of a junior, and he is definitely not someone he needs to accept.
He is his own rival in the film market.
Meet your opponent in chess.
And the next "Let the Bullets Fly" is on the same schedule as his movie.
