1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 48 "Sunshine" is famous overseas, and a small farewell is better than a newlywed!
At the beginning of September, Jiang Wen was doing post-processing in Germany. On the first day when he entered the mixing studio, he just hung up the film and was about to start working when the phone rang. It was from Rome.

It was a film selector for the Venice Film Festival named Marco. He excitedly told Jiang Wen that your film was selected for the Venice Film Festival and will premiere on September 9.

Jiang Wen said: "This film hasn't been mixed yet."

Marko said: "Yeah, so I want to congratulate you, your film was selected without mixing."

To Jiang Wen, it was like a joke, how could this be possible!Because in the history of the Venice Film Festival, this situation is almost unprecedented.

In fact, there is one more thing that Jiang Wen has never figured out, whether it was Jean-Louis who gave the 10-minute tape to the selectors of the Venice Film Festival, or whether Wen Jun and Shu Qi sent the first cut tape of the film.

It was only after arriving in Venice that Jiang Wen breathed a sigh of relief, but another incident happened. The English copy of the movie "Sunny Day" was lost.

Prior to this, Jiang Wen sent the English copy and the Italian copy through Lufthansa, because it was an international film festival and the international judges could only watch the English version.

As a result, the scene that Jiang Wen played for the judges was in Italian, so many judges finished watching the film in a daze, and could only nominate Xia Yu as the best actor based on their general impressions.

Because of the overwhelming response, Jiang Wen felt that he could win at least two or three awards, so someone called and told Jiang Wen: "Don't leave, you may have an award." Jiang Wen asked, "What award?"

They said, "Now tell you, there might be a Best Actor award."

Jiang Wen asked again: "Then what else, what else?"

Indeed, the response was overwhelming, because Jiang Wen had also participated in some film festivals before, and his impression was that Chinese filmmakers were always asked questions that had nothing to do with films, such as political and intellectual issues, social issues, and so on.

This time is different, no matter whether the reporter or the audience, they are talking about the story in the movie with Jiang Wen, what is going on with these children, and what is going on with themselves through talking about the movie.

Seeing the enthusiasm of the foreigners, Jiang Wen couldn't help asking: "Do you understand?"

They also asked Jiang Wen: "Do you think we are two fools? Is there anything you don't understand?"

Jiang Wen was speechless when asked.

The next morning.

Xia Yu was washing socks at his home in Qingdao, when a reporter came in and asked Xia Yu excitedly, "Did you know?"

Xia Yu was dumbfounded: "Ah? Know what!"

The reporter was surprised, and asked Xia Yu back: "You don't know yet?"

Xia Yu was even more stupid.

Then, the reporter told Xia Yu that it was a great honor for him to win the best actor in Venice.

If it was an ordinary actor, he might have been rolling on the ground with excitement, but Xia Yu was very calm, he only let out an "oh".

Because at this time, Xia Yu didn't know what the Venice Film Festival was. Before that, he had won many awards, all in the category of skateboarding, but he didn't know what the Venice Film Festival was.

For Xia Yu, it's like a policeman who won a gold medal for performing cross talk.

In fact, after filming the movie "Sunny Day", Xia Yu returned to his hometown Qingdao to continue his high school studies, completely unaware that the film was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival.

At this time, Xia Yu didn't have a pager, let alone a mobile phone. The Venice Film Festival had been going on for more than a week before the crew found Xia Yu and asked him to apply for a passport, visa, etc., but it was too late.

June 9, evening.

A few days after the film "Sunny Day" won the award at the Venice Film Festival, Jiang Xiaofeng just finished a commercial performance at Swing58, a newly opened bar on Sanlitun South Street.

Like every previous commercial performance, "Blue Lotus" is Jiang Xiaofeng's must-sing song, followed by "I Have You in My Life" and "Those Flowers", and then "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", "I Believe" choose one of these two songs.

All in all, "Blue Lotus" is Jiang Xiaofeng's must-sing song when he participates in commercial performances, but Jiang Xiaofeng's favorite song is "Those Flowers" released in cooperation with Dadi Records, but he usually does not take the initiative to sing this song songs, unless requested by the sponsor.

The bar called "Swing58" invited Jiang Xiaofeng to perform. In addition to attracting customers, it also wanted to use Jiang Xiaofeng's "star effect" to make the bar famous.

Because a few days before Jiang Xiaofeng participated in this commercial performance, the bar had already posted a poster of Jiang Xiaofeng's upcoming performance. In this way, one spread to ten, ten to hundreds, and in just a few days, many young people in Yanjing knew Yes, there is a bar called "Swing58" on Sanlitun South Street.

After the commercial performance was over, Jiang Xiaofeng was on his way back to the Asian Games Village in a business car that Wang Jinghua temporarily rented for him.

It is worth mentioning that, apart from being the manager of Jiang Xiaofeng and others, Wang Jinghua is also Chen Daoming's assistant. Through Chen Daoming's relationship, she also has a close cooperative relationship with the Yanjing film and television industry.

Jiang Xiaofeng thought, since Wang Jinghua has such a relationship, see if Wang Jinghua can help him find a TV drama actor or a movie actor to act in.

Although Jiang Xiaofeng has now become a popular singer in Yanjing, he still likes acting and doesn't want to be bound by the identity of a singer. He wants to be like Andy Lau, an all-round artist, and develop together in film and television.

late at night.

On the large and small streets of Yanjing, there are not many vehicles, and there are almost no people.

Looking at the deserted street scene outside the car window, Jiang Xiaofeng said without a word: "Sister Hua, if you have any resources for movies and TV series, you can ask me to shoot them. I have acted in movies, and the movie "" "Sunny Day", I am the male number two."

Wang Jinghua had inquired about Jiang Xiaofeng's details a long time ago, and replied with a smile: "Xiaofeng, it's not easy to manage actors now, and there are not many film and television crews working in Yanjing, so you can be your singer with peace of mind. "

"Also, I only signed a three-month short-term contract with you, and the cycle of film and television dramas is very long, the rate of return is too low, it's not worth it..."

After listening to Wang Jinghua's long speech, Jiang Xiaofeng nodded thoughtfully: "Okay, I will listen to you."

"By the way, Sister Hua, you also have something to do with the TV station. Can you bring me to the TV station to record my face? You can go up there and sing a song, no money required!"

Wang Jinghua sighed helplessly: "Xiaofeng, it's not about money. The TV station generally has a bad impression of you rock singers. They think you are a bunch of restless radicals who may cause trouble at any time. It's not suitable for you." On TV……"

Jiang Xiaofeng said unhappily: "They beat a group of people to death with a stick. I don't know about others. Why did I become radical? The songs I wrote are so inspirational. I think my songs are a bit too positive."

Wang Jinghua couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Xiaofeng, it's useless for you to tell me this, and I told others the same way, the problem is that they just don't buy it, they just have prejudice against you rock singers, unless one day, you can make them have something Change your mind, otherwise, you won't be able to get on the stage."

Jiang Xiaofeng knew that what Wang Jinghua said was the truth, so he stopped complaining. He looked out the window and fell into deep thought.

Back at the Asian Games Village, Jiang Xiaofeng saw the lights on in his rental house, thinking that his home had been burglarized, and opened the door to see that it was Taohong.

Due to his frequent participation in commercial performances, Jiang Xiaofeng has been walking acupuncture points back and forth in Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and other places during this period of time, and has not seen Taohong for a while.

At this time, Taohong had just gone to school at the Central Academy of Drama. Because the school was far away from home, she stayed at the school from Monday to Friday, and went home on Saturday and Sunday.

Seeing Taohong suddenly appear in his rental house, Jiang Xiaofeng was overjoyed: "Why are you here? Don't you have to go to school?"

Tao Hong replied with a smile: "No need, tomorrow is Saturday."

Jiang Xiaofeng suddenly said: "I said why are you here?"

As he said that, Jiang Xiaofeng took Taohong into his arms.

Nestled in Jiang Xiaofeng's arms, Tao Hong asked pitifully, "Where did you go? You came back so late?"

Jiang Xiaofeng smelled the fragrance of Taohong's body, stroked her hair, and began to feel a little distracted, and said, "I went to a bar to perform, and I just came back."

"What? Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Taohong nodded, and said aggrievedly: "I came here as soon as school was over in the afternoon. I wanted to see you right away, but you weren't here. I was bored by myself, so I listened to your songs in my room and lay on the bed all night. , almost fell asleep..."

Hearing Tao Hong's words, Jiang Xiaofeng hugged Tao Hong even tighter, and said, "I'll have someone come over to make a phone call tomorrow. If you want to come over then, call me in advance, so you won't wait so long for nothing." gone."

"Okay, I see. Are you tired now? Look, you've lost weight..." Tao Hong looked at Jiang Xiaofeng with pity, and reached out to stroke his cheek.

Jiang Xiaofeng still didn't like people touching his face very much, so he grabbed Taohong's jade hand with a smile and said, "It's okay, I'm not tired, if you don't want to sleep, I can stay up with you until dawn."

Tao Hong didn't quite believe it at first, thinking that Jiang Xiaofeng was bragging. As a result, that night, Jiang Xiaofeng really stayed up all night and fought her duel until dawn.
