Chapter 95 16 Accidents
The celebration banquet ended successfully.
Wang Shu went to the bathroom before leaving. When he came out, he happened to meet Qin Hailu who was washing his hands in the sink.
“What a coincidence?” Wang Shu asked casually when he saw Qin Hailu.
After hearing this, Qin Hailu looked at Wang Shu with a look of suspicion, and asked quietly: "Director Wang, are you following me on purpose?"
Wang Shu rolled his eyes and responded by not responding.
Seeing this, Qin Hailu smiled even more.
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something. She turned her head to look at Wang Shu and asked, "Director Wang, I just heard you tell Director Han that after filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan", you will make another art film. ?"
Wang Shu and Qin Hailu have become good friends through their cooperation in "The Tuner", so he responded without concealment: "I have this plan."
After hearing this, Qin Hailu said in surprise: "I thought Director Wang would take a break after filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan"? I didn't expect that the next move had been arranged before the filming of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" started."
If she remembers correctly, Wang Shu filmed his first film "Buried Alive" in 2004, then the TV series "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox", then "The Tuner", and the upcoming "The Tuner". "The Legend of Zhen Huan".
In just one or two years, three works have been produced and one TV series is about to be produced.
And now, before the production of the drama "Yangsheng" has begun, the actions after filming "The Legend of Zhen Huan" have already been planned.
Looking at the mainland entertainment industry, there are almost no directors who work non-stop like this.
Like Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Yimou and others, who doesn’t film one movie a year or one movie every few years?
How could he be like Wang Shu, who is either filming or on the way to film?
Although Wang Jin from Hong Kong Island also had a record of filming three dramas in one year last year, he was a director from Hong Kong Island.
Can mainland directors be the same as those from Hong Kong in this respect?
Hearing this, Wang Shu smiled and said, "I just have an idea now. I don't know whether I will take action later."
"That's it." Qin Hailu pretended to be surprised. Then he asked curiously: "What kind of literary film does Director Wang want to make?"
"Currently we only have a preliminary idea and it has not been confirmed yet. We will not know until later." Wang Shu said with a smile.
Qin Hailu straightened his clothes, followed Wang Shu's footsteps and walked out, smiling and asked: "What do you think of me, Director Wang?"
"What do you think? Wang Shu looked back at Qin Hailu and asked, pretending not to understand.
Seeing this, Qin Hailu pursed her lips and rolled her eyes and glared at Wang Shu. She also knew that Wang Shu was a stupid young man who was "ignorant of worldly affairs", so she thought that Wang Shu really didn't listen. I understand, so I had to say in more detail, "Director Wang's literary film!"
Considering that time was tight, she was worried that Wang Shu still wouldn't understand, so this time she said quite straightforwardly, "Wang Shu Director, don’t you have the idea of making an artistic film?”
"Now, standing next to you is an actress who has made many literary films."
"How about it?"
"Don't you consider me when filming?"
After hearing this, Wang Shu stopped and turned around to look at Qin Hailu from head to toe with a scrutinizing gaze.
Qin Hailu stood still and looked at Wang Shu's eyes. He seemed to feel a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and suddenly his heart was filled with anger and he puffed up his chest.
Wang Shu took a glance at it and found it very ordinary.
He understands people and the world, and then he said with a smile: "We will wait until the script is finished. If the role is suitable, Sister Hailu will be found to play it. If not, there is nothing we can do."< br>
Qin Hailu guessed that Wang Shu would say this. Based on her understanding of Wang Shu, Wang Shu would basically not include other things in the script casting, but would choose whoever he thought was suitable.
This time she took the initiative to mention it because she wanted to gain a foothold with Wang Shu first. When the casting time comes, Wang Shu will naturally consider her.
So, he looked at Wang Shu happily and said jokingly: "Can you use the back door?"
"Back door?" Upon hearing this, Wang Shu looked at Qin Hailu in surprise, and asked doubtfully: "Sister Hailu, want to use the back door?"
"No way?" Qin Hailu pouted, as if to Wang Shu's tone was quite dissatisfied.
"Haha." Wang Shu smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'm not strong enough and can't walk."
Although Wang Shu's words were brief, Qin Hailu could do it in an instant Understand.
What this means is that Wang Shu is expressing that his ability is limited, and he has to go through the back door to find someone who does not meet the requirements of the role. For a movie that wants to win awards, the gain outweighs the loss.
"How does Director Wang know that he is not tough enough?" Qin Hailu blinked, as if to say, Director Wang can do it, you can definitely do it, and you can definitely give her a back door.
"." When Wang Shu heard this, he couldn't stand it any longer. Just as he was about to answer, he met Jiang Wenli and others, so he had to shut his mouth and not continue the topic.
After another polite flattery, Wang Shu returned home.
Jiang Wenli returned home and saw that the lights were still on in the study. She took off her warm coat and hung it up, then walked to the study and took a look, exclaiming: "What? I saw someone who was with you in Berlin. The movie made by an award-winning director who is decades younger than you has a box office of over 100 million. You can't accept it and can't sleep?"
Gu Changwei glanced sideways at Jiang Wenli and remained silent without replying.
Gu Changwei was invited to the "Tuner" celebration party.
However, Gu Changwei did not go.
Seeing that Gu Changwei didn't say anything, Jiang Wenli then said, "Wang Shu should take "The Tuner" to Cannes."
"What do you mean?" Gu Changwei heard something in Jiang Wenli's words. , asked sideways.
Based on his understanding of Jiang Wenli, his sudden remarks after attending the celebration banquet definitely had another meaning.
Jiang Wenli was silent for a while, then looked up at Gu Changwei, and said sadly: "It will be difficult to have the opportunity to go to the top three universities in Europe in the future..."
"So, I want to give it a try."
< br>In the movie "The Tuner", the heroine is not the little girl played by Qin Hailu who has a spark with the blind pianist, but the villain and poisonous woman played by Jiang Wenli.
Hearing this, Gu Changwei looked at Jiang Wenli in surprise and asked doubtfully: "Why do you have such an idea?"
To be honest, he was unwilling in his heart.
Because, he won the Berlin Film Festival Jury Prize.
With this award, his status, both in the industry and at home, is unquestionable.
However, if Jiang Wenli wins the Best Actress Award in Cannes, with this honor beside her, her status will definitely rise after returning to China.
At that time
"Why do you want to win awards in the three major European universities?" Jiang Wenli did not answer this question, but asked instead.
She knew in her heart that if "The Tuner" was really selected for the Cannes International Film Festival, it would definitely be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If you miss it, you may never have such good luck in your life.
So, she didn’t want to miss it.
When Gu Changwei heard this, he knew that Jiang Wenli had already made a decision.
In this case, even if he refused, it would have no effect, so he responded in a deep voice: "If "The Tuner" goes to Cannes, then it is up to you."
< br>
Jiang Wenli nodded and turned to the bathroom to wash up.
In the bottom of her heart, she had already made a plan.
As soon as "The Tuner" goes to Cannes, public relations begins.
Even if she doesn’t win the Cannes Best Actress Award, she can still be nominated. on the web.
The discussion about "The Tuner" is getting more and more intense.
Some viewers who watched the movie even posted online detailing the various twists and turns in "The Tuner".
A netizen with the ID name (I am your horse) published a post about "The Tuner" on the Tianya Forum.
After this post was published, it quickly aroused heated discussions among many people.

Some netizens even forwarded it to other forums and post bars.
Netizens who were still on the sidelines and did not go into the cinema could no longer hold back after seeing these posts and went into the cinema.
Furthermore, as more and more people have watched the movie, the various twists and turns in "The Tuner" have a certain topicality, so in real life, many people also watch it before and after tea. discuss.
It seems that it has become a topic of conversation for many people.
Therefore, the box office trend of "The Tuner", which had already begun to decline, has stabilized slightly with this momentum.
On the eighth day of release, the box office was 11.03 million.
Day 9, 986W.
Day 10, 719W.
February 9th.
When Wang Shu saw at the company that the box office of "The Tuner" was only over 7 million yuan yesterday, he already understood that the movie was entering its second half.
From now on, it will only get lower and lower until it is released.
On this day, the lie about him taking "The Tuner" to be selected for the Berlin Film Festival was completely exposed.
For a while, it sparked heated discussion on the Internet.
The box office of the movie "The Tuner" was more or less affected.
But by this time, it is no longer very important.
Even if it had an impact, it would only be a matter of missing a few million in box office.
For a movie that has already exceeded 100 million, this is not a big deal.
……
On February 9, 2006, the 56th Berlin International Film Festival kicked off.
At this Berlin Film Festival, British actress Charlotte Rampling serves as the chairman of the jury for the main competition unit.
As for the jury members, there is only one East Asian movie star, actress Lee Young-ae from South Korea, who is the eldest sister who starred in "Dae Jang Geum".
The drama "Dae Jang Geum" has created a ratings miracle both in South Korea and in mainland China.
On this day, Director Chen became stubborn.
Because "The Promise" directed by him will have its grand European premiere ceremony today at the Berlinale Palace, the main venue of the Berlin Film Festival.
Of course, we will not participate in the Golden Bear and Silver Bear awards.
Chen Hong originally set out with Chen Kaige, but when they were in Paris, France, she did not come because she had to take care of two children.
Therefore, at the premiere of "The Promise" in Berlin, only Director Chen of the couple was present.
When Wang Shu saw this news, he wanted to criticize Chen Hong.
It is such a big event that Director Chen's "The Promise" held a grand European premiere in Berlin. As Director Chen's wife and one of the leading actors in the film, you didn't even accompany Director Chen there!
Instead of playing with the children in Paris?
For such a big thing, couldn't we leave the child in the care of relatives for a few days before coming, and just come with Director Chen?
Huh?
