Chapter 394 Opening of Shanghai Film Festival

"So, Wei Xun is actually the patriarch of the 'Hong Huang Liu' school of online novels?"

"I still remember the surprise when I read "The Great Desolate Era" six or seven years ago. I didn't expect this book to be written by Wei Xun! Now "Journey to the West" is not only the best-selling book in China, but also designated as the The official reading book series, Director Wei is really amazing, one after another amazed everyone."

"Have you noticed, especially this year, from book publishing to overseas music and movies, Director Wei has made great strides. I think he is clearly planning to develop into the international circle."

"A gold medal composer, screenwriter, director, actor, and now a best-selling author, how many surprises will Director Wei bring us in the future? This person is living like a legend."

When the author of "Journey to the West" and "The Prehistoric Era" "Xian Sheng Zhen Jun" was confirmed to be Wei Xun himself, there was a heated discussion on the Internet.

In particular, "Journey to the West" was listed as an official designated reading book series, which made many netizens marvel at Wei Xun's ability again.

In the past seven years, Wei Xun has brought too many incredible things to the Chinese entertainment industry.

Especially this year, he has made great moves in various fields one after another, which has already made many people speculate that Wei Xun will probably go to the international market next.

But this also makes perfect sense. Medallion Media has established a firm foothold in China. "Let the Bullets Fly" and "On the Journey" successively broke the box office record of 20 billion Chinese movies, and "Chain Saw" has opened up overseas markets. , Let Wei Xun become famous in the field of R-rated movies.

With this film as the foundation, it will be relatively easier for Wei Xun to move to Hollywood later.

Because regardless of word of mouth or box office, he has proved his strength.

The only thing that makes netizens feel regretful is that it seems that "Chain Saw" can't be released in China at present. While everyone is curious about this movie that is said to be very bloody and violent, they also don't forget to pay attention to Baldwin on Facebook '.

This formerly arrogant Hollywood director is now completely afraid to take the lead on Facebook. Whether in China or in the United States, he has become the laughing stock of the public.

As for the Internet, many netizens are looking forward to the fact that "Chain Saw" will be released in China, and Xun Zhang has also noticed it.

So when Wei Xun came to the company the next day, Zou Min discussed this matter alone.

"I think we can try to apply for it, maybe it can be released? Individual bloody scenes can be processed, or some concessions can be made to cut some. The reason why Hollywood movies are released in China is cut in various ways. It is because the official Control the right to speak and put pressure on foreign invasion culture."

Zou Min looked at Wei Xun in the CEO's office of Medal Media, and said, "But "Chain Saw" was filmed by us. It has achieved very good results in the United States, and it will be released globally next time. That doesn't make sense The films we make ourselves can be shown in other countries, but they cannot be shown in China."

Hearing Zou Min's words, Wei Xun thought for a moment, and said, "Wait for me and the Film Bureau to find out, so you don't have to worry about this matter, I will take care of it."

Just a few days later, the Film Bureau planned to hold a celebration banquet for five young directors including Wei Xun and Kang Cheng.

This celebration banquet is to celebrate the achievements of "Chain Saw" in overseas markets.

That being the case, it is not too much to mention the fact that this movie was released in China.If the first film filmed by a Chinese director and released globally, it would be unreasonable if it could not be released in China.

Zou Min laughed and said, "Okay Mr. Wei."

Wei Xun said with a relaxed expression: "Bao Qiang, "Tang Detective 2" should be finished in the middle of next month, and the announcement of "The God of Medicine" will start at the end of December. At present, everything in Medal Media is on the right track. I think, Take some rest."

Zou Min probably knew that the villa that Wei Xun bought was being renovated recently, and it was supposed to be a wedding room for Chi Tang.

"Chain Saw" has just been released, and it's only natural for Mr. Wei to take a break to spend time with his girlfriend.The subtext of Wei Xun's words is that he doesn't want to take care of the company's affairs recently, and don't bother him with work if he has nothing to do.

Therefore, Zou Min, who knew it well, said with a smile: "Basically, in December, you will attend the two award ceremonies of the Shanghai Stock Market and the Flower Market, and the rest of the time can be completely free."

Wei Xun is very satisfied with this.

So in the next half month, he completely relaxed, sent Chi Tang to and from get off work on time every day, and occasionally went to the No. [-] courtyard of the embassy to check on the decoration of the house.

As for the release of "Chain Saw" in China, Wei Xun and the Film Bureau mentioned it, but whether it will be screened or not, the official side is probably still considering it, so there is no immediate reply.

The nominations for the Flower Market Film Festival were also released in early December, and "Let the Bullets Fly" won four important nominations again without a surprise.

Best Actor: Shi Fan.

Best Picture: Let the Bullets Fly.

Best Director: Wei Xun.

Best Supporting Actor: Yi Heng.

It can be said that "Let the Bullets Fly" definitely swept the awards season this winter.

And half a month after Wei Xun's leisurely break, on 12.19, the latest Shanghai Film Festival was held at the Shanghai Grand Theater.

During the day on the 19th, Internet social platforms such as Newsletter have begun to warm up.

Especially the discussion about who will get the best actor is even more controversial.

In Shanghai in December, there was a lot of rain and humidity.During the day, the weather was a bit gloomy, and at around six o'clock in the evening, it started to rain coldly.

Outside the Shanghai Grand Theater, fans who came to support their idols wore raincoats or held up umbrellas, so even though the weather was cold, the atmosphere of the scene was still very hot.

At nearly seven o'clock, the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly" made their finale appearance, pushing the already fiery atmosphere of the scene to its peak.

Wei Xun, Bai Qianchi, and Shi Fan were all wearing white shirts, black formal suits, and black fox fur cloaks, while the two actresses, Zhong Xianxian and Zhai Qing, wore one red and one blue two-color dresses.

Shi Fan held Zhai Qing with an umbrella, Bai Qianchi held Zhong Xianxian with an umbrella, and Wei Xun stood in the middle.

After returning from the United States last month, Wei Xun entered the state of obscurity again.

Tonight, he appeared on stage in a black dress. He is tall, long-legged and looks calm and handsome. He looks very energetic and full of aura. Even standing next to the other four top celebrities, he is still the most eye-catching one.

And the five people appeared side by side at the end of the red carpet, which filled the scene with deafening screams.

The reporters who had been prepared for a long time frantically pressed the shutter.

Obviously, these are the biggest fans tonight.

"Ah, Wei Xun!"

"Director Wei, Zhai Qing, look this way!"

"Bai Qianchi! Bai Qianchi!"

Amidst the screams and the sound of the shutter, Wei Xun stretched out his hand and greeted the fans on both sides of the red carpet with a smile.

As a result, the screams at the scene became obviously crazier.
