Chapter 525 Opening

For Li Sheng, the current time seems to be passing by every minute and every second, which is horribly slow.

Although what Yu Feihong said is right, even if it starts today, you won't know the result, and being anxious is useless.

But even though that's what I said, it's good to see the reality of the other party!

Li Sheng patiently finished reading the information he got back from Wang Xiaoshuai, and had a general understanding of what Wang Xiaoshuai said about his opponent.

Benicio's position in the American film and television industry does not seem to be very prominent. He should be regarded as the kind of acting school with good acting skills. He takes the literary route, and his reputation is not too great now.

But the problem is that the drug network drama has already been screened on thousands of big screens in North America, and according to the information, it seems that the results are not bad, and the reputation is also very good.

In addition, this movie was not only shortlisted for the awards in Berlin, but also a smash hit in the United States. Not only was it nominated for the Golden Globe Award, but it also won the 72nd Academy Awards just announced. The nomination shows its excellence.

Of course, you can't say that you can kill in Hollywood, but you can do the same when you come to Berlin, but the chances are better anyway, right?

Looking down at himself again, Li Sheng suddenly felt that the 17-year-old bicycle was suddenly a little thin, too thin to support himself and Wang Xiaoshuai.

……

However, he has not given up yet. There is a saying that hearing is believing, seeing is believing. He wants to see it with his own eyes, to see if this drama is really so good.

Although the values ​​and outlook on life of Chinese and Americans are different, art is common, and acting skills cannot deceive people.

……

After a long 35 minutes, it's finally time to start.

Jiao Xiongping came, followed by Wang Xiaoshuai, Baobao, Lin Zhengsheng, and Li Xinjie. They were also dressed in formal attire, and they seemed to be going into the venue, but Jiao Xiongping, who was the organizer, was still in casual clothes.

Li Sheng asked curiously, "Aren't you going in?"

Jiao Xiongping waved his hand, "Why should I go in, I still want to take this opportunity to find a film dealer to sell our film!"

Li Sheng suddenly realized that it was the same as when he was taking a bath, and those people in China Film were doing the same things when Wang Mao was there.

Jiao Xiongping looked at everyone, smiled and said, "Today is a relatively formal attendance. As the producer of our two plays, I need to be responsible for everyone!"

"Of course it's good to be able to win the award. You can't, and you don't force it. Don't be discouraged. At worst, you can come back next year!"

"The cars are on the west side. There are three cars in total. I don't need to say how to allocate them! I will take you down later."

"I also made an appointment with the studio in France to discuss business, so I won't accompany you there!"

They all nodded to Jiao Xiongping and watched her go.

After waiting for a while, people came up from downstairs. They put on their shirts a little bit, let Lin Zhengsheng and Li Xinjie go first, followed by Wang Xiaoshuai and Baobao, and Li Sheng and Yu Feihong were the finale.

This is not to say that Li Sheng is famous and has a high status, it's just because the first two are directors.

Li Sheng, who is also a director, naturally knows what a director looks like when he sees his film enter the film festival, and he should let the two go first.

After such a delay, another 10 minutes passed, and finally it was Li Sheng and Yu Feihong's turn.

The hotel is fine, not only are there no reporters, but there are also no movie fans gathered, and they have all swarmed to the venue.

After getting into the car, the car slowly drove towards the venue.

Li Sheng has mixed feelings in his heart. He came here for the second time. Last year, he was not in the same mood. Last year he came here with the idea of ​​traveling, but he took home a trophy. He doesn't know what will happen this year!
……

In fact, Li Sheng also knew that this year, and even last year, he and Wang Xiaoshuai, including this director named Lin Zhengsheng, took advantage of it.

If the film market and atmosphere in the whole world are in a normal state, it is very likely that "I am not Wang Mao", "17-year-old Bicycle" and "Love You Love Me" will not be shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival.

Since 2000, there has been a strike in Hollywood, which has led to a slump in the North American box office and a sluggish market. Film investors and production companies must be cautious and cautious, which has led to the slump in Hollywood movies last year and this year. Expect.

To put it bluntly, it's a bit ugly, and it's a little bit similar to the monkey calling the king when the tiger is not at home.

However, there is an old saying in China that luck is also a kind of strength!
……

Ten minutes later, the car slowly stopped by the red carpet outside the venue.

Immediately, a staff member from the venue came up to help Li Sheng and Yu Feihong open the car door.

Li Sheng looked at the turbulent crowd outside, took a deep breath, and turned to look at Yu Feihong.

Yu Feihong nodded to him, Li Sheng also nodded, and stepped out.

After Li Sheng came out, he stood still and extended his hand to invite him as a gentleman. Yu Feihong put his hand on Li Sheng's and got out of the car, and then the car drove away slowly.

Originally, Li Sheng felt that he and Yu Feihong wouldn't have too many acquaintances, but unexpectedly, the response was quite enthusiastic.

The spotlight clicked and clicked for a while, and someone shouted that someone wanted to interview Li Sheng.

But this occasion is definitely not acceptable. Li Sheng glanced roughly from the corner of his eyes, and then listened carefully to the surrounding voices. Most of the people who were interested in him were reporters, and he could hear a question.

That is Mr. Li. This is the second year in a row that you have come to the Berlin Film Festival. Do you have the confidence to win the Best Actor again?
Li Sheng really wanted to tell him loudly, I have confidence!
Can Li Sheng do it?No, so he has no confidence.

On the red carpet, Li Sheng and Yu Feihong kept their postures quite well. They walked gracefully across the red carpet, stepped into the venue, and began to walk towards the seats in front of them.

The venue this time is slightly different from last year. The personnel area and the audience area for the entire film competition are divided, because there are too few films this year, and a total of 23 films were shortlisted, which can be said to have created the least number of Berlin Film Festivals. the most in history.

Li Sheng took Yu Feihong to find the seats that belonged to the two of them, and sat down. Next to him were Wang Xiaoshuai and Baobao. Excitement, and maybe anticipation.

Li Sheng is also very curious about the opening film this time, because according to the external promotional materials, this work called Soldiers under the City claims to invest [-] million U.S. dollars, spanning the four countries of the United States, Ireland, Germany and France. For the epic of war.

Sitting here at this moment, Li Sheng suddenly felt that he was slowly becoming calm again, that the goddess of luck would not always stand by his side, even if he was a rebirth party.

Maybe, if I get lucky and lose my life, this is the best result!
Li Sheng suddenly thought.
