Actually I just want to act

Chapter 406 I'm going to participate in the awards ceremony, I'm a little excited

"Wait a minute, it's still a bit wrong."

Lin Qingyi carefully arranged Fang Jiming's suit and tie. Fang Jiming, who was dressed up to attend, looked very energetic after a little haircut.

Fang Jiming looked at the serious Lin Qingyi. She was wearing a light yellow dress today, showing the beauty of oriental women's lines. With a height of 1.6 meters three, after wearing a pair of [-] cm high heels, the figure looks even taller.Fang Jiming liked it more and more, and said affectionately: "You are beautiful today."

Lin Qingyi snickered and said, "You're handsome too."

Fang Jiming said stinkingly: "Of course, I don't even look at who your husband is!"

Lin Qingyi spat: "Death, bragging! Alright, let's go out, the time is almost up."

Yep, the most watched red carpet walk of every film festival has arrived.For this reason, CCTV came to a team just to record this moment.Because this time the Berlin Film Festival is unprecedented, two Chinese films have been shortlisted!In other words, as China's national power has grown significantly, so has its cultural soft power!

Well, the truth is based on the thinking of the Chinese, the idea is: China is so powerful, you still don’t give an award to Chinese films at the Berlin Film Festival, is it justified?Little do they know that Westerners play double standards in politics, and they also play double standards in film festival awards.Just because they are tolerant towards Western films doesn’t mean they can be tolerant or even harsher towards films from the East.

It can be said that as long as the film does not meet their values, the jury will never "relax".

unfair?
If you have the ability, you can hold a film festival yourself, there is no need to rub other people's faces.

When you come here, you must abide by their rules!
It seems fair, but in fact it is according to their rules.Whether or not Chinese films can win awards is entirely up to them.If it wasn't for the box office, Fang Jiming would really disdain to come to such a hypocritical occasion.Of course, business is all hypocrisy. Fang Zhiming has already learned hypocrisy in front of outsiders.

After calling a taxi, Fang Jiming and Lin Qingyi brought Gu Hongye and translator Wu Tianyu with them.

This is necessary because no one understands German.

"Hey, classmate Xiao Ming, are you really flamboyantly dressed?"

Gu Hongye said teasingly.

Fang Jiming glanced at Gu Hongye, who was also in a suit and leather shoes, and said disdainfully, "Both each other."

And Wu Tianyu seemed to know who Fang Jiming was, and looked at the younger boss with a slightly complicated expression, not knowing what to say.

"Stop joking, hurry up and get in the car, it's time to walk the red carpet." Lin Qingyi urged.

Fang Jiming smiled and said, "There's no rush, the main character always appears last."

Gu Hongye smiled and said, "Are you sure you will win the prize?"

"Not sure, but the momentum must be strong. I heard that CCTV is here." Fang Jiming felt that CCTV's visit must not be aimless. He must have received news that Chinese films are likely to win awards.After all, on the first day in Berlin, Fang Jiming handed over the invitation letter to the organizer.

"This time, there are three Chinese films, besides those from mainland China, there are also those from Wanwan. You are so confident that the Berlin Film Festival will give you an award?" Gu Hongye was a little disbelieving.

Fang Jiming said: "Even if I don't win, it's useless for "Youth's Bicycle" to win! Because it entered the competition without being judged at all, and the photos are all old Yanjing alleys. China that cares about face Can the relevant departments release such a film during the Olympic bid period? Haha, definitely not, maybe it will take a few more years!"

Fang Jiming's guess is not groundless.

You know, many banned (movies) films made in China are like this, and they came to the competition without being submitted for review.In fact, the shooting cost of these films is very low, and it is estimated that they don't even need 5 yuan.Therefore, the market for underground films is very hot.As long as it can win an award overseas, even if it is a small award that no one knows, it can stimulate overseas film studios to come to their door.Just take a box office of hundreds of thousands of euros, and it will be enough to pay back.If the box office is a big hit, and it is released in Wanwan, North America, and Europa, and it can have a box office of 1000 million dollars, it will be a huge profit.

Not to mention, there are big killers like DVD discs, which can sell for at least millions.

So underground movies also have big income, but most people don't know it.What's more, if you continue to publicize the relevant departments and let the film be released, it will be very cool to get hundreds of thousands of millions of box office!This way is suitable for directors with great ambitions, such as Jia Zhangke in his previous life, that's how he got up.

But what Fang Jiming wanted was a quick return of funds—short of money, he would definitely not choose this path.

If CCTV receives news that there must be a Chinese film winning an award at the Berlin Film Festival, it will be either "Youth's Bike" or "This Man From Earth".And if it is "Youth's Bike", CCTV will definitely not broadcast it.Only "The Man From Earth", a positive, sci-fi, publicity-worthy, flawless film, can make it to the CCTV news.Maybe, CCTV will ask Fang Zhiming to buy the film copyright!
This is the source of Fang Jiming's confidence.

Of course, there is another situation - Wanwan's movie "Love You Love Me" won the award.

Fang Jiming felt that he had a great chance of winning, so what was he afraid of?It's good to win the award, but it's okay not to win the award. The publicity effect has been achieved!

Well, although Sunshine Media also used the same trick, but Fang Zhiming made it into the final list for this movie!
Seeing that Fang Jiming seemed to be hit, Gu Hongye said: "Don't expect too much, gringos are not fair!"

"I didn't have any expectations." Fang Jiming said flatly, and then got into the taxi.

Wu Tianyu told the driver in German that after going to the Berlin Palace, the driver would look at their attire: "Are you going to attend the film festival awards?"

After listening to Wu Tianyu's translation, Fang Jiming said, "Yes, we are the final film team."

It seems that all drivers in the world are talkative. The Berlin driver asked, "Where are you from?"

"China!"

Fang Jiming said proudly.

The Berlin driver was a little surprised: "Not many Chinese go to the Berlin Film Festival!"

"There will be more in the future!" Fang Jiming replied confidently. In the future, if there are similar film festival awards, he will not come.

The driver in Berlin talked a lot, but Fang Fang obviously didn't want to pick it up. Instead, Gu Hongye chatted happily with the driver in the German he just learned.

Soon, the Berlin Palace arrived.

Fang Jiming got out of the car, took Lin Qingyi's hand in a gentlemanly manner, and walked slowly towards the red carpet.

"Berlin Film Festival, I'm here to check in!"

Fang Jiming shouted in his heart, in fact, he was a little excited to participate in the award presentation!
