Chapter 744: Closing Ceremony

Time flies, and it's time for departure.

The team leader, Nie Yuan, was at x-on:All Crew Attending the Closing Ceremony, asking everyone to gather in the downstairs lobby and set off for the closing ceremony together.

After Zhang Zian took a bath for Femas, he was sorting out his things, packing all the things that should be taken away and stuffing them into the suitcase, except for the clothes he was wearing tonight.

Big and small Berlin Bear dolls and other souvenirs have been sent to China by a transshipment company. It seems that this time I spent a lot of money just buying souvenirs.

Famous is also ready and puts on another bow tie with a Euberlin bear pattern on it, also bought from a souvenir shop.

When they got downstairs, there were still a few people who hadn't arrived, so Zhang Zian sat on the sofa with Femas.

Lin Feng and his personal assistant were biting their ears in low voices again. Although Zhang Zian couldn't hear what they were saying, Fimac's hearing was more sensitive. He heard the assistant encouraging Lin Feng. Express yourself and don't be afraid to make mistakes, because the live feed of the festival will be delayed by a few seconds to avoid live accidents.

Feng Xuan was dressed in a black dress, and so was Lin Feng. They were all fully prepared for tonight, because in a sense, tonight is more important than the opening ceremony.

After a while, seeing that everyone had arrived, Nie Yuan got into the rented motorcade and led the crowd to set off.

The ten-day Berlin Film Festival is coming to an end, and the whole city is gradually cooling down from the carnival-like atmosphere.

However, at this time next year, there will still be movie lovers from all over the world gathering here.

In the twilight, the convoy left the hotel and headed for the Berlin Film Palace at Potsdamer Platz.

Most of the crew members were in the car with their heads down and swiping their phones, or talking in low voices about the current sales of overseas distribution rights of the film. Nie Yuan kept making calls, making friends with the bosses of the theaters, and striving for a higher screening rate for War Dogs. , because a higher film scheduling rate means more income, which is related to the final cost-benefit calculation of the film.

Zhang Zian sat silently, staring at the Berlin night outside the window.

From far away, the tall Victory Column can be seen shrouded in lights, bright like a torch in the dark sky. The golden statue of Victory holds a spear in one hand and a wreath in the other, with wings outstretched, ready to fly.

Since the buildings in the urban area of ​​Berlin are generally not high, this 67-meter-high memorial column can be seen in most places in the urban area. Zhang Zian and the others also visited once.

Soon, the motorcade stopped at the entrance of the Berlin Film Palace, and the closing ceremony still had to walk the red carpet once.

The last time Zhang Zian and Femas got out of the car, the photographers and reporters took a moment to point the camera at them, and it was more out of gimmicks and curiosity. After all, it was the first event in the history of the Berlin Film Festival. The red carpet dog.

But this time is different.

The 10-day film festival made Famous from obscurity to well-known. Even Germans who have never seen the film know that such a dog participated in the film festival.

The movie itself has gained a good reputation. People tend to be more tolerant of movies starring animals, not to mention that Femas is already very good.

From the time when the team of War Dogs team arrived on the red carpet, the fans immediately burst into cheers. Many fans even came here specially for Famous, and many of them were teenagers. The powerful momentum dwarfed other big-name stars, and they really enjoyed it. The home court treatment also gave the uninformed people a deep understanding of how much Germans like dogs.

Lin Feng and Feng Xuan who were sitting in the front car had already got out of the car one after another. They didn't linger too much on the red carpet, and they didn't try to steal the limelight from Fei Max in vain, even Lin Feng did the same.

The staff maintaining order at the scene judged the situation and gestured to Zhang Zian's car to let them drive to the beginning of the red carpet.

"Sir, you can get out of the car."

After the car stopped, the driver turned around and said.

When Fei Max got out of the car, he found that the atmosphere in the kitchen had reached a climax. The reporters and photographers who had been waiting for a long time immediately pointed their cameras at them, and the flashlight was as bright as day.

Femus squatted politely on the red carpet,

Raising a front paw and waving to the fans, he also posed very cooperatively for the photographer to take pictures, and immediately there was a loud exclamation.

"Femas!"

"Femas!"

"Femas!"

I don't know who took the lead, but the enthusiastic fans shouted spontaneously, as if calling the head coach to "dismiss get out of class" at the ball.

The loudest voice came from a certain corner. Zhang Zian and Fei Masi followed the reputation and saw a group of young people full of youthfulness. Among them were a few familiar faces. They met at the entrance of the Cubix7 theater that day. the group of children.

Phimas met their eyes, and they became even more excited.

"Femas is our hero!"

"Femas! We will always support you!"

Femas smiled gently, stopped again, and deliberately waved his front paws over there.

As teenagers, they have infinite possibilities. They are just kids now, and they may change the world in the future.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhang Zian may have specially trained it for the waving when it got off the car, so what happened to the waving this time? Even if Zhang Zian, as the dog trainer, sent it a hidden signal, how did he control the direction of its waving?

Many Germans at the scene have dogs and understand dogs, but they are still puzzled by this scene.

No matter how long the red carpet is, it will eventually come to an end.

Zhang Zian and Fei Masi entered the movie palace under the guidance of the staff.

There are more stars present today than on the day of the opening ceremony, because different films have different premieres within ten days, and some stars with busy schedules will not arrive in Berlin on the first day, but wait until the day when their films premiere Come and stay until the festival is over.

The stars got together to chat with each other, and after waiting for a long time, they were seated under the repeated urging of the broadcast.

Off stage lights dimmed, stage lights brightened, and the closing ceremony began.

The bright lights focus on one side of the stage, where a row of bear-shaped trophies are placed on the table, except one is gold and the others are silver, representing the Golden Bear Award for Best Picture and other awards, which are also attracting the attention of the audience hot spot.

Zhang Zian tilted his head slightly, looked around, and found that most of the foreign stars were dressed more casually and casually, and some of them could even be said to be sloppy, but the War Dogs crew and the crew of another Chinese criminal investigation film were all dressed very formally. Probably because the closing ceremony and awards ceremony will be broadcast live by video websites in China.

When the eyes of the two Chinese crews meet occasionally, sharp sparks will burst out, and each regards the other as the greatest competitor.

It may be due to national pride, the domestic media generally pay more attention to Chinese people winning awards abroad than domestic awards, and the momentum of publicity is completely different. For example, Feng Xuan, assuming he wins an award at the Berlin Film Festival, when he is mentioned again, he will be called "the award-winning director of the three major European film festivals" by the media. If he wins an Oscar, tsk tsk!

The hostess of the opening ceremony is still in charge of presiding over the closing ceremony.

After a short opening remark, she first introduced the short film awards. Some liked it and others were sad. Those who won the award were naturally elated, and those who missed the award could only feel sad.

The same goes for other awards.

Seeing that there are fewer and fewer bear trophies, the next awards will become more and more important.

When the special guest uttered another name at the Best Director Award, Feng Xuan sighed slightly. He was originally expected to win this award, but it turns out that you don’t have to guess the taste of the jury, just guess and guess not come out.

The so-called greater hope means greater disappointment.

Then, the hostess invited out another special guest with a mysterious face.

When this guest appeared tremblingly from the backstage, the whole minister was stunned, because it was an elderly woman who was pushed onto the stage by a staff member in a wheelchair.

The celebrities in the audience were all unfamiliar with this old woman, and guessed her name, identity and age among themselves.

The hostess introduced the old woman loudly. It turned out that she was one of the founders of the Berlin Film Festival!

There were warm applause and whistles immediately from the audience, paying high tribute to this venerable old lady, because without her, everyone would not sit here and enjoy the carnival of movies for more than half a century.

According to an unwritten convention, the best actress is often awarded by male special guests, while the best actor is often awarded by female special guests, of course there are exceptions.

Although the old woman is old, her eyes are still sharp. She delivered the award speech to the audience in a low but clear voice:

"I seldom watch foreign movies because of the language barrier, and it is very difficult to read the subtitles when I get older. Except for this movie. In fact, I can't understand every word in the movie, but I understand everything. In this film, I saw a leading man who created a truly great character, and he told us an incredibly compelling story, and his charisma blew through the film."

Then, she opened the card given to her by the organizing committee with her withered palm, and said with a smile: "The winner of the Best Actor Silver Bear Award is—Femas!"
