Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

Chapter 242 Sensation

[The great director Gu Mingwen successfully captured the Lion, and "Shoplifters" became the fifth Golden Lion Award for Chinese-language films! 】

[Following Hou Xiaoxian's "Sad City", Zhang Yimou's "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", Tsai Ming-liang's "Long Live Love" and Zhang Yimou's other work "No One Less", Gu Ming successfully won the Golden Lion. 】

[The three highest awards in Europe, the Grand Slam, a legend in the history of Chinese film! 】

The movie fans who got up early on the Internet, as well as the film and television lovers who stayed up all night just to witness this legendary moment, also went crazy and started posting various posts on the Internet.

[From now on, Gu Ming is the number one director in the Chinese film circle, a unique director! 】

[Not only in the Chinese film industry, but also in the world film and television industry, Director Gu is definitely number one. I think Director Gu is the only director under the age of fifty! 】

[I used to think that Wong Kar-wai is the only director in the Chinese-speaking circle. Even if he doesn’t have many awards, I have to admit that Gu Ming may not be as good as him visually, but overall, he is not as good as Gu Ming. This Having won three Grand Slams at his age, Gu Ming definitely deserves to be called a legend! 】

[Do you think Director Gu can win the Oscar for Best Director before he turns 30? Achieve a grand slam of director awards. 】

[If I really can win the Oscar for Best Director, it will be the only one in the history of film. When Director Gu is a hundred years from now, I can think of it. There will definitely be a biographical film about Director Gu. I have already thought of the title. Well, it's called "Peerless Beauty". 】

Even the morning news devoted more than a minute to reporting on the incident.

"Early this morning, the famous Chinese director Gu Ming won the Golden Lion Award, the highest award of the Venice Film Festival, in Venice. He became the fourth filmmaker to successfully gather the influence of the three European majors since their establishment, and he is also the youngest. Winner."

"At the same time, he is the first yellow man to achieve this achievement, and the first Asian to achieve this achievement!"

"This marks that our country's filmmakers are constantly going international, allowing the international community to see the works of our domestic filmmakers!"

……

Changan.

"Hahaha!"

"My son is awesome and has my style!" Even though several hours have passed, Dad Gu in Chang'an will laugh a few times from time to time, "He is indeed my son! His genetics are good!"

"Put it down." Mother Gu couldn't stop the smile on her face, but she still couldn't help but want to complain about her husband, "It's only your genes that co-authored? Or he's inherited more of my genes. Otherwise, how could he be so outstanding?"

"I work in movies, and he has made such great achievements in movies, isn't that something he inherited from me?" Dad Gu retorted.

"Then you're a film maker, why haven't you ever won any awards?"

"Did you win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Lighting?"

"What else can I say? I just inherited my intelligence."

"Huh! I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to go outside and take a walk."

Dad Gu opened the door with his hands behind his back and walked out.

Walk along and greet people along the way.

"Old Wang, are you going to do morning exercise? I'm not going to do morning exercise. I'm going to buy some good wine. Didn't my useless son just win the Golden Lion and collect three majors? I'll have some."

"Hey, no, no, he is only twenty-six years old. He still needs to improve. He is far behind him. He has only made a small achievement."

"Old Zhao, I'm going to buy some good wine. My son..."

……

While countless people in China were happy for Gu Ming, Gu Ming was patiently accepting interviews from reporters.

Even though the reporter had been answering questions for two hours, I was still in a state of excitement.

It felt like staying up all night after drinking several cups of coffee.

The body feels a little dizzy.

"Director Gu, you are full of awards. Is there any other award you want to win now?" a reporter asked. “Of course, Oscar for Best Director.” Gu Ming answered with a smile.

Actually, it’s much more than just Oscars.

He also wants to win the three domestic gold medals for Best Director.

I just don’t think about it that strongly.

The Hong Kong Film Awards had requirements for participation, but Gu Ming was too lazy to comply with them.

The Golden Horse in Wanwan was not only for the stars at the beginning, but later Gu Ming did not want to waste that time to participate, so other crew members were allowed to participate.

In the end, the Golden Rooster was left, and Gu Ming still wanted to win it. The reason was very simple, he just wanted to see if he, a young man in his twenties, would be awarded the Best Director award.

Pure curiosity!

"How many years do you think it will take, Director Gu, before you can win the Oscar for Best Director?"

"I don't know. Maybe it will be next year, maybe it will be the next work, maybe it will never win." Gu Ming smiled and shook his head, and simply talked about the scene, "Winning or not winning the award is not the first thing. In the end, The important thing is that I can bring you works that you like to watch, and that is enough..."

After answering for three hours, Gu Ming excused himself to take a rest and returned to the hotel.

After going back, he came to Zhou Xun's room and began to release his emotions.

The east turned white, and then Gu Ming fell into a drowsy sleep.

……

At noon, Gu Ming was awakened by the ringing of his cell phone.

"Hey?"

"Gu, congratulations!" It was Anthony's voice, "I can't leave in Los Angeles, so I send you a blessing from thousands of miles away!"

"Oh, thank you."

"I should also thank you." Anthony's laughter was undisguised, "You are now a film master. Our "007" has another publicity point, the master's latest masterpiece, hahaha."

"Also, Gu, I have already ordered James, the vice president of our company sent to Venice this time, to buy your "Shoplifters" for 10 million US dollars, in addition to overseas copyrights in China."

"Okay, then that's the price."

Gu Ming agreed directly.

If the film that won the Venice Golden Lion is a pure art film, it is not worth the price.

Obviously, this is Anthony selling his face, or he has new ideas, such as the Gu Ming Grand Slam series, which packages "Burning", "Daytime Fireworks" and "Shoplifters" into a set.

But no matter what, if I don't sell it to him, I won't even get ten million US dollars. It's a win-win situation for everyone.

Moreover, Gu Ming no longer wanted to stay in Venice, and urgently wanted to return to China. He had sold it long ago and ended it long ago.

"Okay, I'll ask him to contact you. Congratulations again, hang up." Anthony hung up the phone.

After a while, someone called. It was James from their company that Anthony mentioned.

The two agreed on a time, signed the contract directly, and collected the money.

After selling the copyright.

Gu Ming immediately took the ten million US dollars and the Venice Golden Lion trophy, and boarded the flight back to China with the rest of the crew.

Closing his eyes, Gu Ming's lips curled up subconsciously. He could already think of everyone's enthusiasm and praise after returning to China.
