Chapter 445 Venice Night (Part 2)
Chapter 445 Venice Night (Part 2)
The Venice International Film Festival is brightly lit.
Under the much-anticipated stage, everyone looked ahead with bated breath.
“Infernal Affairs” Zhou Yang, Liu Hua, “Lighthouse by the Sea” Zhao Zhen, “Night Walker” Li Yaozong, “Berlin 1982” Tom…
A close-up short film flashed in front of the screen, and the camera gave a close-up of each nominated actor.
The King of Heaven, Liu Hua, couldn’t hide his excitement, and his eyes were fixed on the front. When the camera swept over him, he smiled at the camera and said hello, maintaining the humility of the older generation of actors.
Zhao Zhen was in high spirits, and he could see that he was very nervous. He kept holding the handle with both hands, as if he could not sit still. When the camera swept over him, he showed a wanting to laugh, but because he was too excited, he laughed very strangely. After the camera was scanned, his face was flushed red, and his brain was terrifyingly blank.
The King of Heaven Li Yaozong is also excited. Although he has already won the Best Actor Award in Huaxia, he is still unable to calm down. He is full of expectations on the screen…
That is the Venice International Film Festival!
One of the longest film festivals in the world, and it is also a blockbuster Best Actor Award!
With this award, his influence will definitely radiate to Europe and become a veritable international superstar!
Tom of “Berlin 1982” even stood up and started punching and cheering…
…
On the scene, only Zhou Yang looked calm, like an old monk entering meditation, neither nervous nor excited, but with a faint smile, pretending to be the ultimate.
The screen photos were rotated, and finally settled on “Lighthouse by the Sea”.
Countless thunderous applause broke out, and the camera gave a close-up of Zhao Zhen who was stunned, unbelievable, and excited.
The two crew members of “Infernal Affairs” and “Night Walker” were in an uproar.
Then, on the side of the “Lighthouse by the Sea” crew, Zhao Zhen was hugged by everyone, and then pushed up the aisle, stepping onto the bright stage with a dazed emotion…
“I actually lost to a miner!”
“…”
Beside the “Night Walker” crew, Li Yaozong couldn’t believe it when he heard Zhao Zhen introduce himself as an out-and-out miner before!
Then, he clapped with a wry smile.
Liu Hua, who was not far away, felt a huge sense of difference. He was applauding and continuing to laugh, but he smiled reluctantly.
Although he knew that the influence of the film “Lighthouse by the Sea” in Venice was almost terrifying, and it was very popular among small groups of people, Liu Hua still felt lost when the ending was in front of Liu Hua, as if he had returned to five The Golden Horse Award last year!
witness!
Tanima is another witness.
“are you OK?”
Song Yiyi looked at Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang is still very calm, applauding calmly, laughing calmly, as if he is outside the world and watching a performance.
Lost the Best Screenplay Award and the Best Actor Award. “Infernal Affairs” did not get anything in this trip to the Venice International Film Festival.
Song Yiyi didn’t know how to comfort Zhou Yang. She felt that the more calm Zhou Yang was now, the more emotional fluctuations and the more she felt lost.
“Infernal Affairs” he paid too much effort.
Adjusted the camera again and again, revised the script repeatedly, pondered every line, and every dialogue expression was accurate to the change of eyes, but it was still retaken and retaken again and again, and the whole movie was carved as a work of art…
She was actually watching it all the time.
Such hard work has been repeatedly attacked internationally…
The influence is good but the box office is not good, he was suppressed to be painted in advance, was invited by the Venice International Film Festival, and won three nominations. He should have been proud once, but in the end he got nothing…
“Very good, I’m very happy for Brother Zhao.”
The lights flicker.
was full of cheers.
Zhao Zhen, who was highly anticipated on the stage, began to snot and thank many people, naturally Zhou Yang.
Thanks to Zhou Yang for pulling him out of the mine and taking him into the line…
Sometimes life experiences really feel amazing!
The camera inevitably glanced to Zhou Yang’s side again. Zhou Yang looked at Zhao Zhen on the stage, a smile appeared on his calm face, and he was sincerely happy for him.
As for the loss…
Maybe there is. After all, standing on such a bright stage, enjoying the attention and all the glory, the entire Venice International Film Festival seems to be paving the way for you. It feels absolutely good.
But the sense of loss only lasted for a while, and then disappeared again.
“Huaxing has produced a real first international superstar!”
He heard behind, Li Qiang of the later group muttering to himself.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Li Qiang’s eyes were full of fiery passion!
“It’s alright, next time we come again…it’s alright!”
“Cry if you want to… don’t be ashamed, don’t hold back, just cry.”
Zhou Yang felt Song Yiyi’s hand suddenly caressing the back of his hand, and in the hustle and bustle, she spoke softly.
This little girl felt that Zhou Yang had suffered the biggest setback and blow in her life, and her mood collapsed for a while…
Zhou Yang shook his head, dumbfounded.
“It’s okay… Teacher Song, are you taking advantage of me?”
“Bah, who wants to take advantage of you…”
Song Yiyi looked at Zhou Yang’s strange expression, her pretty face flushed instantly, and she quickly pulled back her hand, knowing that she had misunderstood, she could not wait to find a hole to burrow into.
not far away…
The one who really collapsed was Feng Kai.
“Also, thanks to the directors and leaders who helped me along the way…”
He listened carefully and heard a series of thank you lists, but he was not on the list!
He stared at Zhao Zhen reluctantly, but watched Zhao Zhen step by step from the stage, Feng Kai’s expression changed from excitement, anticipation, adjusting his sitting position, to stunned, and finally disbelief to disappointment…
【Why didn’t he thank me? 】
【Directors? Why do you classify me as directors? You can say Feng Director, or you can say Feng Kai, I have no credit, but also hard work! 】
【My “Jin Yiwei” made him popular, and I also shot a lot of “Mine Bottom”! 】
【Thank you, give me a close-up of the camera, even if it is a close-up of a second or two, can’t you do it! 】
The lights on the stage are still flickering, and the next grand prize is announced and awarded…
At this moment, Feng Kai seems to have returned to Berlin in that year, becoming a witness, and then a frustrated person.
“Wow, Director Feng, this is Huaxing’s first international superstar!”
“um, yes!”
“so amazing!”
“Well, awesome, really awesome…”
“Director Feng, are you okay?”
“I’m fine…”
Feng Kai seemed to have been pulled from his soul, and then dealt with it in despair.
The 64th Venice International Film Festival finally came to an end with a burst of song and dance performances.
”Lighthouse by the Sea” became the biggest winner of the 64th Venice International Film Festival…
The Best Actor Award was won by this film, the Best Screenplay Award was won by it, and at the same time, the highly anticipated Golden Lion Award of the entire Venice International Film Festival was also won by it.
Director Marie Vane held the trophy and was so excited that she was so excited on stage.
There is no doubt that this is the peak moment of her life…
“Night Walker”, which had high hopes, actually failed. It was a mess, and nothing was obtained.
“Infernal Affairs” also became a companion.
After the award ceremony, several judges came over, shook hands with Zhou Yang, and expressed regret and regret for the film.
The chairman of the 64th Venice International Film Festival even sighed: “It should have won the award. I am very optimistic about this movie, the script is good, and the shooting is also very good…”
“However, its opponent is “The Lighthouse by the Sea”, a movie that renders a niche love story…”
“…”
When Zhou Yang faced regrets, his heart was quite peaceful, and he didn’t have many words.
The original world’s “Infernal Affairs” also enthusiastically won an international award.
The result is regrettable that nothing was found.
When the “Infernal Affairs” of this world was nominated for the Venice International Film Festival, Christian hinted to Zhou Yang, and asked Zhou Yang to prepare for the opponent “The Lighthouse by the Sea”.
Whether it’s the Oscars or the three major European film festivals, or some other film festivals in the West, the craze for niche films has endured for a long time…
The pattern of the entire movie “Infernal Affairs” seems to be a lot different in terms of overall pattern and performance.
This world is quite realistic.
During the opening ceremony of the Venice International Film Festival…
Crowds of people, gongs and drums.
After the awards ceremony, it began to look a little cold.
Those red carpet actresses who were flamboyantly showing off their heads and showing their faces left, as well as some “invited screening” crews.
But there are still a lot of reporters. After seeing Zhou Yang and his party coming out, they all swarmed around the first time…
Zhao Zhen became a fragrant pastry in the crowd, being surrounded by him, he was simply praised to the sky.
“Mr. Zhou Yang, do you feel lost after losing this time?”
“Mr. Zhou, I’m Xiao Chen, a reporter from “Huaxia Film”. I want to ask you, how do you feel when “Infernal Affairs” is cold in Venice this time?”
“Mr. Zhou Yang, Huaxing is about to give birth to its first international superstar, what do you think of this?”
“…”
The questions from the reporters are very vicious, almost everyone wants to sprinkle salt on Zhou Yang’s wound, and even more hope to see Zhou Yang’s lost and gaffe expression.
However…
Zhou Yang’s reaction was beyond their expectations. He remained calm from beginning to end. After answering a few words, he got into the car.
Before he got to the hotel, he received a call.
The call was from Xu Mei.
“Mr. Zhou, our “Infernal Affairs” box office officially broke 700 million!”
“We are about to break history!”
“We are a new milestone for Chinese films, the king of box office!”
On the other end of the phone, Xu Mei shouted excitedly!
(I am trash, there is only one update today, I am trash…)
