During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 223 Lady Luck, capturing the bear, pointing the sword at the review!

As the actress finished speaking, the award presenter appeared on the stage again and opened the envelope in his hand.

Matt felt like he couldn't breathe.

Fortunately, the award presenter did not make anyone excited and read out the name quickly.

"Silver Bear for Best Actor - Matt Damon, "The Hunt," congratulations!"

The voice of the award-giving guest was still echoing in the venue, but at this time, Matt seemed to be frozen, as if he was knocked unconscious by the surprise.

"Matt, congratulations, come on stage to receive your award."

Wei Jin's mood was very complicated. He won the best actor award, but he might lose the award later.

"Wei, thank you. It was you who allowed me to win the Best Actor, the Best Actor in Berlin, the same Berlin Best Actor as Leonardo. Thank you, thank you."

Wei Jin could feel Matt's excitement, stood up, hugged him, and blessed:

"Hey man, relax, you remember the speech, right? Go ahead and enjoy your moment."

Taking a deep breath, Matt straightened his clothes and walked slowly onto the stage, accompanied by warm applause from the audience.

"Praise to Berlin, this award is a recognition of my acting career, and I want to thank my friend, Wei.

He is an amazing director who gave me this opportunity.

I would also like to thank my friend Leonardo for stimulating me all these years."

Although Matt was still speaking, Gao Yuanyuan was already visibly nervous.

"Sister Yuanyuan, relax, I am lucky to get it, but I am destined to lose it."

Wei Jin has calmed down now. Even if there is really no award, the worst thing is that he will come back later.

With a smile on his face, Matt returned to his seat with the little silver bear, feeling that his steps were much lighter.

Meanwhile, new awards continue to be awarded, and tonight's biggest winner is about to emerge.

"Silver Bear for Best Director - Asghar Farhadi, "About Ellie", congratulations!"

This is a drama film from Iran that tells the story of how people should make choices when facing things. The core idea conveyed by the director is:

"Painful results are better than pain without results."

Wei Jin accompanied Gao Yuanyuan to watch this film, and it was indeed very good, except for the opening part, which was a bit lengthy.

The awards were still going on, with only the last two awards left, and all the crew at the scene began to get nervous.

"Jury Grand Prix Silver Bear - Maren Ade, "The Perfect Second Couple" and Claudia Lothar, "Sad Milk", congratulations!"

Surprisingly, two jury awards were awarded this time, which means it was a product of compromise. It seems that the final award was a very heated debate among the judges.

"Hunter, the chances are getting smaller and smaller."

Although Matt won the award himself, he felt that Wei Jin deserved a trophy.

"It's not the end yet, wait, wait"

Hunter also doesn’t know whether the public relations work has played any role. Before the suspense is revealed, anything is possible.——

Jury President Tilda Swinton took to the podium.

This is a fashionable and neutral woman with a strong personal style, and it is obvious that she has led the way in the previous awards.

"I am very happy to be the president of the jury of this year's film festival. Next, it will be me who awards the Golden Bear."

At this time, Tilda Swinton was in a very complicated mood. She was committed to promoting a younger and more feminine film festival. However, the previous Director Award, Actress Award, and Ball Silver Bear Award were already the biggest concessions to other judges. She We have to admit that the resistance to reform is too great.

Taking a deep breath, Tilda Swinton tried to smile. She needed to maintain the dignity of the film festival.

"Golden Bear for Best Picture - "The Hunt," Wei."

After hearing the final result, Gao Yuanyuan stood up excitedly.

"Xiao Jin, I knew you would never disappoint, congratulations."

Wei Jin was in a daze. This situation was just like Berlin five years ago. Maybe Sister Yuanyuan was his lucky goddess in Berlin?

"Wei, congratulations on capturing the golden bear!"

Matt is also very excited. Of course, a crew must be neat and tidy, so that the subsequent road to winning awards will be more certain.

Wei Jin stood up, hugged Sister Yuanyuan, and walked to the award podium.

After a symbolic kissing ceremony with the chairwoman, Wei Jin took the Golden Bear trophy with both hands. The size was no different from his previous Silver Bear, but the color was different.

"Praise for Berlin!"

Wei Jin raised the little bear above his head with one hand:

"The Berlin Film Festival was the beginning of my career. The first Silver Bear Award made me a leader among the young directors in our country, and it brought great help to my career.

Today, 5 years later, I am honored to stand here again and receive the Golden Bear, which symbolizes the highest honor of the Berlin Film Festival. I would like to thank the film festival and the jury for their recognition of me.

The movie "Hunting" has many directions, and everyone may have a different understanding.

But in my opinion, the reason that moved me the most and made the movie necessary is the consistent attitude of the male protagonist. I will always maintain this attitude. I will win the Golden Bear, Golden Palm, and Golden Lion all the time. One conquest! "

Wei Jin's words caused the audience to burst into thunderous applause. This young man is only short of the Golden Lion among the three European Grand Slams. That day may come soon.

"Thank you to all the crew, Hunter, you are an excellent producer." Hunter, a fat man who weighed nearly 200 pounds in the audience, was caught off guard by Wei Jin's words of thanks, which made him cry a little.

"Thanks to Matt Damon for his superb performance, which makes the movie come alive even more.

Thanks to my alma mater, Nortel, for protecting me from wind and rain as I grew up.

Thank you, Lady Luck, that nothing unexpected happens with you. I love you.

Once again, praise Berlin, thank you! "

Amid the continued high applause, Wei Jin returned to his seat, and Gao Yuanyuan hugged him fiercely.

At this time, Gao Yuanyuan's eyes were already red. This was the first time that Wei Jin said the word "love". Although she did not name him by name, she knew that the goddess of luck was herself.
-

When the awards ceremony ended, it was already late at night in Berlin, but domestic time happened to be morning.

Nortel was the first to get the news. The school followed tradition and pulled up the banners made early in the morning:

"Warm congratulations to Wei Jin, an outstanding graduate student in the 06 class of our school, for winning the Golden Bear Award for Best Film at the 59th Berlin International Film Festival!"

Subsequently, a large amount of news came back from the film festival, occupying the entertainment headlines of major media.

"Director Wei Jin captured the Golden Bear with "Hunting" and became the youngest Golden Bear director in China."

"Wei Jin, the fifth Golden Bear director in China, is born!"

"The great director Wei Jin made a bold statement and conquered the three great generals in Europe one by one!"

"Gao Yuanyuan—the goddess of luck in the Wei and Jin Dynasties?"

While netizens sent their blessings, they also started talking about it.

Mr. Zhu Xiongjiang: "Wei Jin should be the youngest Golden Bear winner, right?"

I also want to be artistic: "I don't know, but it doesn't matter. The Palme d'Or, the Golden Bear, and the Grand Slam only lack the Golden Lion. Looking forward to it!"

Zidianxiashi: "Gao Yuanyuan seems to be really popular in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. It was her first time in Berlin."

Song Junjie was mighty and domineering: "You might as well take a guess, who will he bring with him during the Golden Lion?"

DeCartel: “I don’t know if the film will be released in China, I’m really looking forward to it.”

However, among all the news, one post attracted the attention of many netizens.

[A movie makes a gold and a silver. Is it the tragedy of censorship or artificial suppression? 】

An anonymously published article elaborates on the detailed causes and consequences of "The Hunt" from being a domestic script to being adapted into a foreign script.

Including Wei Jin's refusal to participate in domestic film festivals such as Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers, and he was accused of not knowing the general picture;

The script review time for "The Hunt" exceeded the stipulated 20 working days;

When will foreign "Hunting" scripts be registered and filed;

When will the domestic "Hunting" script be released;

There is no subjective discussion in the entire article. It only outlines the timeline of the incident. However, it is this objective explanation that makes netizens more aware of the problem.

lc Bai Yu: "This is obviously targeted, just because they don't participate in film festivals and award ceremonies? Are these people too overbearing? Do you really think it's still a feudal society?"

I just wanted to say: "Hey, these people are really remnants of feudal society."

Great Glory: "Calling on relevant units to investigate strictly. Power without supervision will only lead to corruption!"

"Second +1"

"Second +2"

"."

In less than a day, this post has been viewed by more than 100,000 people and forwarded to major portals, attracting widespread social attention.

For a time, there was a lot of public outcry on the Internet, and even celebrities and artists came forward to support him. If it weren't for the old diehards, this actor should belong to China.
-

"What should we do now? Director Tong is already very unhappy."

In fact, the review team is so large that, generally speaking, project-specific reviews do not require leadership intervention at all.

Moreover, a single project does not require everyone to participate. Historically, more than a dozen people have the final say.

"I didn't expect this kid to actually win the Golden Bear. Poet Chen is such a waste."

"Now is not the time to worry about this. Think about how to give an explanation."

Everyone present nodded when they heard this. They knew very well that this incident was indeed a personal revenge. It was not a big deal originally, but now that it has become known to everyone, an explanation must be given.

A group of people discussed and discussed, but no result was reached. To put it bluntly, no one wanted to take responsibility.

"I will take responsibility. In addition, let Lao Hou talk to Lao Tian and calm the situation as soon as possible."

An old man with gray hair stood up and said that everyone's mutual evasion made him realize that these old guys have failed to keep up with the times. They can't even unite, so how can they continue to hold power? They are nothing but withered bones in the grave.

"That's it, don't be embarrassed. If any of you want to find trouble, don't start with the review. It's easy for someone to talk about it. You won't know who will be responsible next time."

The old man walked out of the room slowly, leaving only one sentence that echoed in everyone's ears.

"Brother Huayi, after so many years of admiration, it's time to do something, right?"
