Senior Superstar

  Chapter 957 Going out to meet a distinguished person (seeking a monthly pass!)

  Drops!

  Received an additional applause value of [Fear] [Shock], 9131 points!

  On the square, as the old man kneeled and shouted, Li Shixin's ear instantly sounded a soft whistle.

   glanced at the French veteran who was kneeling on the ground, Li Shixin smiled faintly.

  Master. The action is very skillful.

  I didn’t lose the kung fu when I was young!

  The treasure knife is not old.

  The juniors give you a thumbs up!

   Just when Li Shixin was thinking about what the scene would be if Mr. Liu Feng were present, Tong Guaiguai had already ran to him amidst the applause of the spectators around him.

"Master Xin, this is the first time I have heard someone use the guzheng to pop "Ambush on Ten Sides"! You are too good! How did this happen? This, this has completely transcended musical instruments. Features!"

  Drops!

  Received additional cheers for [adoration], 688 points!

  Looking at the little girl surprised in the film, Li Shixin was happy.

  Musical instruments are dead, but music is alive.

The predecessor of the   Zheng was a weapon, but later it developed into a musical instrument. Therefore, there is a cloud in the Han book; the Zhengzhe is happy for joy, and becomes a soldier on the ground.

  When I completely mastered the guzheng playing technique and looked at the performance at a king-level level, many things were different in Li Shixin’s cognition.

   "After you have thoroughly understood the technique, you will know. The essence of any musical instrument is to express human emotions. It has a golden ge on its chest, and it can be used to play thousands of thousands of horses with a flute."

  Thinking about it, he smiled and said to Tong Guai.

  If this is put on someone else, Tong Guai will definitely pass it a blank eye.

  But just heard Li Shixin’s guzheng version of "Ambush on Ten Sides", she could only look at the man with slightly long hair, deep eyes and a peaceful smile in front of her.

  Too amazing, this is so amazing!

  This is the real boss!

  "Hello, what instrument does this gentleman play? What was the name of the piece just now?"

   "What does it describe? I feel that there seems to be a complete story in this song."

   "Gosh, this is so cool. It's like a short film. I seem to see the attack and fighting of soldiers. What kind of instrument is this? It's amazing! Can I take pictures with it?"

  Looking at Tong Guai, who was excited with his small fist, and then looked at the tourists who were shocked by the song "Ambush on Ten Sides" and became interested in the guzheng, and Li Shixin smiled secretly.

  The questions asked by the foreigner, he did not understand.

   Pulled the coat from Tong Guguai's arms with her small fist, and Li Shixin patted Tong Guguai's shoulder again.

  "Music is an art of expression that does not require voice. I hope you can keep going, come on."

  It wasn't until he walked out of the crowd that he heard the slightly excited voice of Tong Guaiguai behind him.

   "Thank you Xinye, I will do it!"

  "The name of this instrument is Guzheng! It is our traditional Chinese musical instrument. If you trace it back, it has a history of more than two thousand years! In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period in China, it has been called Gentleman Music by the world."

"The song that my husband played just now is called "Ambush on Ten Sides". It is indeed as you think, it describes a war. But to be precise, it describes a piece of history. It was in the Western Chu Dynasty in 202 BC. The battle between the king Xiang Yu and the Han king Liu Bang! Actually, the gentleman had not finished playing just now. There are thirteen pieces of this piece, and it shows the panorama of the war for supremacy in the form of music."

   In the surprised and bewildered gaze of a group of foreigners, Tong Guai raised his finger.

   "The King of Chu, you definitely don't know what's going on. This is a warrior even more powerful than Odysseus in "Odyssey"."

  Standing on the small square, listening to Tong Guai obediently introducing the King of Chu to the tourists in English, Li Shixin put his hands back and walked towards the hotel humming a small song.

  ……

  When Li Shixin returned to the hotel, a group of old fans were already awake.

  In order to reverse the jet lag, everyone did not dare to sleep for too long. Seeing a group of old fans gleaming like eggplants, Li Shixin didn't bother him either. He just asked the team at the operation and distribution center to take care of everyone and returned to his room.

  At around one in the afternoon, Li Shixin, accompanied by Xu Xiao and translator Xiao Zhang, accepted interviews with several domestic media.

  There is nothing to say about the interview itself. When the domestic mainstream media interviews the film festival finalists, they always use such a set of words and focus on just a few issues. You will never be able to do without these three things: "What do you think of this film festival", "What do you think of being a finalist of this year" and "Are you sure to win the award".

  Tian, ​​I’m sorry, if it wasn’t for the sake of being present in front of audiences and fans across the country, Li Shixin would not want to answer such questions.

  Like all filmmakers and even tourists who come to participate in the film festival, as the first time to participate in the neighboring film festival, Li Shixin knows no more information than an ordinary tourist.

  Is it sure to win the prize? This is even more embarrassing.

  Be humble, seem to have no confidence.

  Don’t be humble, if you don’t get a prize after nine days, how about slaps?

  In a set of words, only the finalists think about this question, and it can be considered as a tie-in with the movie.

   emphatically introduced the three shortlisted films, "Missing Master", "Just Love" and "Ling", and fooled all other issues that had nothing to do with him and the film, and Li Shixin ended the first day of the media day.

  After a day of adjustment, a group of old fans finally sorted out the jet lag, and all of them came back to life like a mud loach in the water.

  In the next two days, Li Shixin officially started this trip to the Berlin Film Festival with his old fans.

  Unlike domestic film festivals, film festivals on the European side sell tickets to tourists. As long as they are willing to spend money, tourists can also experience the feeling of walking on the red carpet.

  After spending a whole day with a group of old fans on the opening ceremony, Li Shixin finally waited for his favorite part of this film festival-the film festival's screening unit!

  According to the organizer’s arrangement, "Ling" was arranged on the first day of the screening, while "Missed" and "Just Love" were arranged on the third day of the competition unit.

  This arrangement has advantages and disadvantages.

  Because the film festival screening unit is directly oriented to audiences, film critics and international filmmakers, the sooner the film that is screened, the sooner the film will enter people’s sight and the sooner it will be in the film festival.

  But for the competition for awards, generally the more optimistic the jury is, the more likely it is to be played later in the screening. This arrangement is firstly to attract the continuous attention of tourists, so that the wonderful movies will not be finished at the beginning of the screening, and secondly, it is also to leave enough publicity windows in the festival for those films that are expected to win awards.

  In the hotel.

  Looking at Li Shixin, who had specially cleaned himself up and put on a slightly formal suit, Zhao Jinzhi couldn't help but smile.

  "This is too formal, isn't it? I see directors from the European side, who usually wear casual clothes during the screening. This way, after the screening, they will be more cordial when communicating with the audience."

   "No."

   After tidying up his tie, Li Shixin grinned.

"Today’s purpose is to sell the film! The screening is just like that. A group of foreigners who don’t understand Chinese at all relied on the subtitles to go through the plot. What can they see? This group of foreign audiences is just like that. It’s the film critics and film dealers who got it done! Come to the film festival, we can’t control the award, but we can still make it through our efforts to sell the film. I’m going to be more formal, and it’s also for film critics. Do people and film dealers make a good impression. If I wear a thief personality, they think I can’t speak well, and what should I do if I delay selling the film?"

   Smell the scent of Li Shixin's wealthy fans, Zhao Jinzhi couldn't laugh or cry.

   "I really don't understand you. Other directors come to the festival to win prizes. It's okay for you to take the sales and distribution so seriously, like a businessman, not like an artist at all."

"Ugh."

  Looking at Zhao Jinzhi who took over the tie and arranged it carefully for herself, Li Shixin smiled.

"You are wrong again. Art is also sold. When it comes to low, it is for fame and fortune. It's just that some people like to pretend to be a little bit and let others catch up. I'm here for the first time, so take the initiative. Don't be ashamed! The overseas distribution rights of the three films are sold for three to five billion yuan. Wouldn't it be fragrant to use the money to make a big cost and make it?"

  Li Shixin’s logic left Zhao Jinzhi speechless.

   After adjusting the silver and red silk tie, Zhao Jinzhi glared at him.

   On the side, holding the lollipop that Hao snatched from Chen Boshi, An Xiao, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, smiled and arched his small hand at Li Shixin.

   "Teacher, I wish you a prosperous business today and a lot of money!"

  Listening to the little Anshi blessing, Li Shixin frowned.

  This is a good thing, but how do you listen

  Is that so bad?

   Just when Li Shixin spread his slap secretly, trying to persuade himself as an insurgent with reason, his room door was knocked.

  Hearing someone knocking on the door, An Xiaoxiao, who didn't realize that he was in danger at all, jumped out to greet him.

  As soon as the door was opened, Xu Xiao, the general manager of the Operation and Distribution Center, broke in with excitement and excitement on his face.

   "Mr. Li, good news! Good news!"

  Looking at Xu Xiao's face of happiness as if she was taken up by others, Li Shixin was inexplicable.

  "What good news? The jury is going to give me the Golden Bear Award internally?"

   "What! It is the overseas distribution rights of our three films!"

"Oh?"

  Hearing this, Li Shixin came to the spirit.

   "Why, someone took the initiative to contact us to talk?"

   "More than that!"

  Xu Xiao smiled and shook the phone in his hand.

"Just now I received a call from the vice-chairman of the jury, the famous director Leia Bibisi, who said that I saw the news that Mr. Li was shortlisted, and I am very happy. I would like to invite you to dinner alone! Mr. Li, Bibixi, Bibixi! In addition to being a famous European director, he is also the art consultant of Sensai International Film and Television Distribution Company! As long as he nods, the overseas distribution of our three films will be stable! This is really going out to meet the nobles. , The unexpected joy!"

Oh?

   Hearing the news, Li Shixin stroked his chin.

  The old man still has such a high-end fan?

  Awesome!
