Chapter 249 Pattern [12]

Generally, Chinese-language films that participate in international film festivals actually have a tacit understanding, that is, they stand on each other's platforms.

Just like the last time in Cannes, even though Gao Fei and Du Qifeng had no friendship, they still took the crew of "Search".

So this time is no exception.

But then again, Gao Fei and Du Qifeng are really destined to each other.

When he was in Cannes in 05, he broke into the main competition with "Underworld".

As a result, after three years, when Gao Fei came to Berlin, Du Qifeng broke into the main competition unit of the Berlin Film Festival again with "The Sparrow".

I have to say that this old man is really good at making movies.

And when Gao Fei, Ning Hao and others arrived at the Chika Cinema in Potsdamer Platz, they saw Du Qifeng, Ren Dahua and others welcoming the guests outside.

Gao Fei was not polite either, Dang even smiled and walked up to shake hands with Du Qifeng, then turned his head and smiled and teased Ren Dahua:

"You two are together every time we meet, Brother Hua, why don't you just live with Director Du!"

As soon as this remark came out, several people outside the door burst into laughter, and Du Qifeng even rolled his eyes speechlessly.

But the old man couldn't refute Gao Fei's words.

After all, he has indeed cooperated with Ren Dahua in several films, and he plans to continue to cooperate. Who makes the cooperation between the two really comfortable.

Just hearing Gao Fei's words, Ren Dahua couldn't laugh or cry and said:

"Are you here to mess things up? Come on, hurry in."

After that, he smiled and let Gao Fei in.

Not long after, Wang Xiaoshuai and his party also rushed to the theater.

Some movie fans and reporters who were more interested in Xiangjiang films quickly filled up the screening hall.

So after some pleasantries, the movie finally started.

……

It is said that "Wenque" is actually an alias for thieves and pickpockets in Xiangjiang.

Du Qifeng seems to have always been very interested in this kind of marginalized people.

So when Gao Fei watches his movies, he always has a feeling of being on the wrong side of the sword.

Coldness and darkness seem to be his eternal themes, and this time is no exception.

In the movie "Wen Sparrow", it actually mainly tells the story between the "thief" played by Ren Dahua and the "mysterious woman" played by Lin Xilei.

From stealing money and goods at the beginning, to stealing people's hearts.

It's just that after watching the movie, although Gao Fei didn't say anything on the surface, Ning Hao still couldn't help asking on the way back:
"You don't like "Wen Sparrow"?"

Although Ning Hao also had some thoughts in his heart after watching "The Sparrow".

But after all, they are competing in the same field this time, so Ning Hao can't guarantee that he will not be biased by the influence of the competition.

It's just that compared to Ning Hao who is worried about gains and losses, Gao Fei doesn't have much estimate.

Stepping on the rustling snow, Gao Fei nodded with emotion and said:

"To be honest...I'm pretty disappointed."

Although "Wen Sparrow" is still a good movie, Gao Fei is disappointed that the core of the movie is still the old formula of Xiangjiang movies.

A group of "sparrows" who "steal as well as steal" took stealing as a game, and then fell into the conspiracy of the rivers and lakes. For brothers and women, they gradually started various open and secret fights.

You must know that such stories have been filmed by Xu Ke, Wu Yusen, Wang Jing and even most of the Xiangjiang directors.

In Xiangjiang movies 20 years ago, such stories are everywhere.

And 20 years later... Du Qifeng is still telling such a story.

But no matter how good a story is, it will make people feel bored and bored after being told a thousand or ten thousand times.

So although Du Qifeng's technique is impeccable, Gao Fei still lacks interest in "Wen Sparrow".

Seeing what Gao Fei said, Ning Hao fell silent immediately.

Instead, Xing Na who was on the side said emotionally:
"Actually, this is quite normal. After all, Xiangjiang is such a big place with such a large population."

"What can be filmed and written, they have played almost all of them in the first 30 years."

"It will be extremely difficult for them to come up with new things now."

What Xing Na said is also an attempt to interpret why Xiangjiang films are declining more and more from the perspective of screenwriters.

He just heard Xing Na's words, but Gao Fei was noncommittal,
Although the ending of Xiangjiang movies was affected by various aspects, in the final analysis, Xiangjiang filmmakers were limited by the glorious golden age.

Vision and pattern are what Xiangjiang filmmakers lack the most.

This can be seen from the Academy Awards.

An Academy Award that is only willing to give awards to crews that tell stories about Xiangjiang and use Hong Kong movie stars cannot shoulder the heavy responsibility of directing Xiangjiang films.

How can someone who cares about Hong Kong flavor in his movies every day look at the world?How is it possible to discover new themes?

Therefore, in Gao Fei's view, the Academy Awards actually accounted for more than half of the responsibility for the decline of Xiangjiang Films.

After all, awards have the important task of guiding the direction of creation.

It's just that Gao Fei also knows that this can only be said.

After all, if the elder brother doesn't talk about the second brother, the mainland film industry is also a mess.

If it weren't for Ning Hao, the film industry would probably still be a pool of stagnant water, the news would always be about those big directors, and those who made banned films would never look up to see the audience's reaction.

But when Gao Fei said this, Ning Hao felt a little embarrassed.

A tall and thick man, he even became shy.

"Hey hey hey~ He's blushing, did you see that he's blushing!"

Huang Bo on the side suddenly shouted excitedly as if he had discovered a new world.

Seeing this situation, before Gao Fei and Xing Na said anything, Ning Hao had already started killing people to silence them.

Looking at Huang Bo who was strangled half to death by Ning Hao, Gao Fei immediately smiled gloatingly.

……

Before coming to Berlin, Gao Fei was actually quite excited.

But after staying in Berlin for a few days, Gao Fei felt a little bored.

The top ten scenic spots in Berlin are just like that. They are not as beautiful as the scenery on the beach in Cannes!

So after wandering around for two days, Gao Fei didn't go out again, and simply went back and forth in various theaters like other movie fans.

During the period, I attended the Berlin premiere of the movie "Left and Right" by the way, stood on the stage for Wang Xiaoshuai, and met a buddy who walked very awkwardly by the way.

I heard from Yu Nan that Zhang Jiayi was actually filming TV series all the time. Because of his good acting skills and the fact that he fit the role well, Wang Xiaoshuai gave him the chance.

This made Gao Fei look at this man with admiration.

If you dare to pull like this before you are famous, you must have someone to rely on!

So with Zhang Jiayi's face in a daze, Gao Fei greeted him enthusiastically for a long time before letting him go.

 There is one more chapter, and it is estimated that it will take half an hour.
