Chapter 868 Thank You, National Teacher!

Li Qian stood up with a dazed expression.

He had just come back, had just sat down, and was still looking at the Silver Bear in his hand with great interest, and he also weighed the weight in the same way as Liao Liao.

His name has already sounded on the stage again.

Things were a little surprising. Even among the filmmakers sitting in the audience at the moment, many of them could be said to have experienced many storms, but at this moment, the awards ceremony scene was suddenly a little noisy.

People are either surprised, amazed, amazed, or astonished.

Many people couldn't help whispering to each other.

Of course, more people turned their heads to look at the crew of "Red Sorghum" immediately.

There was a reason for Li Qian's bewilderment, and there was also a reason for their surprise.

The thousands of years of Chinese people's history of political struggles have made the idea of ​​dividing the cake, compromise and balance into the political genes of the entire nation. Therefore, even if it is a good work that is popular and has almost one-sided reputation , whether it is a TV series or a movie, there are very few grand slams in various domestic awards - status in the world, different factions, the psychology of taking care of other people, etc., people will always have All kinds of considerations have made the major domestic awards, no matter how fair they are, no matter how good their reputation is, they still have to share the cake in the end.

In Europe, this kind of thinking actually exists, but it is not as serious as in China.

The situation of the Grand Slam is not too much, but it is not unacceptable for everyone to do it occasionally.

In contrast, the founding of the United States was short, and the pioneering thinking of the people there is relatively strong. Therefore, in the selection of various awards in the United States, once a phenomenon-level masterpiece appears, they do not shy away from it. Controversy arising from the consistent situation.

So the final result is that the various awards in the United States are the most daring and least stressful. Whichever you think is better, that is the best. You don’t shy away from the failure of the big hits, you don’t care about the dark horses, and you don’t choose them for other reasons. Dare, or don't want to pile up all the awards on one movie!

Secondly, in Europe, it is not uncommon for the three major film festivals to have Golden Bear and Silver Bear or Golden Lion and Silver Lion, as well as Palme d'Or and Palme d'Or to be awarded to a film at the same time, but the situation is relatively rare.

And China... How many years have you met each other!

There is no fixed number of Silver Bear Awards at the Berlin Film Festival. Most years have one or two. Occasionally, if the jury agrees that it is a small year, no matter whether it is the director, actor, actress, or screenwriter , photography, etc. are not too outstanding, then it is even possible that there will be no Silver Bear Award at all that year.

There are even times when there will be no Golden Bear at all!

But this year, there are already three Silver Bear Awards, and it is the third time in history that there have been three Silver Bear Awards.

And the jury has taken the audacity of awarding all three Silver Bears to the leading actor, leading actress and cinematographer in the same film.

This is already risking the disgrace of the world!

This is already tantamount to putting "Red Sorghum" on the altar of art movies at once!

But now, obviously, the members of the jury think that the three Silver Bears and this sensational combination of three awards are still not enough to express their love and praise for "Red Sorghum"!

Or, it is possible that they feel that the three Silver Bears have already been awarded to "Red Sorghum" anyway, a film whose performances by both the leading actor and the leading actress are considered the best at the same time, and its Photography is considered the best, so in this case, when a film has reached the best in terms of performance and technology, you have to award the Golden Bear to someone else-is there any convincing ?

Otherwise, the reverse derivation may also be established.

The jury first decided on the Golden Bear Award, and then when they voted for the Silver Bear Award, they felt that the photography was really awesome. This movie is so awesome, half of which is photography, so the Silver Bear Award must be given to the best cinematography.

And then, the leading actor also played very well, it's amazing, especially the world-renowned big singer and handsome guy Li Qian, who shaved his head at the expense of self-destructive image, making such a simple, kind, brave but somewhat ignorant The role of the actor is full of flavor. Isn't such a spirit of dedication to art worth encouraging? Doesn't he deserve a Silver Bear for Best Actor for such a wonderful role he has delivered?

Well, give one then!

Then, even though it was the first time for the actress who played the leading role to bring her work to the Berlin Film Festival, was her performance any worse than that of the actor who played the leading role? ... Well, let's not talk about anything else, we have already decided to give one gold and two silvers, so why not make the momentum even bigger?

Since you want to praise it, then directly praise it to the sky!

Since this big news is inevitable, how about making it bigger?

Facts have proved that their approach has indeed caused a sensation in the entire awards ceremony.

After the results of this year's Berlin Film Festival are announced, it will surely cause a sensation all over the world!

Because adding a Golden Bear after three Silver Bears would mean that "Red Sorghum" has completely monopolized this year's Berlin Film Festival.

This is almost unthinkable for an international and global film festival!

Of course people will be extremely surprised!

Similarly, at this moment Li Qian was also in the midst of incomparable astonishment.

So much so that he stood up, but just stood there blankly. After a while, he didn't have any intention of going out to go to the stage to receive the award.

In his own mind, three Silver Bear Awards are really enough to hold it!

But he still underestimated how much the jury of this year's film festival loved the movie "Red Sorghum"!

Color aesthetics is not a new concept.

Film itself is a comprehensive art of sound, light and electricity.

At first, the film was only black and white, and it was silent, but later, with the addition of sound and color, it became richer and more expressive than other art forms.

But that was a long time ago.

It has been 50 to 60 years since the birth of color film, and it has been widely used in film shooting for 30 to 40 years. Film artists from Europe, America, Asia, and all over the world, through Their efforts and explorations have developed and enriched the film's color aesthetics and lens aesthetics to a jaw-dropping level.

The exploration and advancement of color aesthetics in "Red Sorghum" was not only in the 1980s in another time and space, but even in the current time and space in 2003, it is still amazing.

However, Li Qian couldn't help thinking: "Three Silver Bears and one Golden Bear, isn't this award too much?"

…………

There are a full six or seven seconds.

Li Qian stood there stupidly, with his mouth slightly open, and his facial expression was stunned, which showed the incomparable shock in his heart at this moment.

Chidanda Hugo, chairman of the jury of this year's Berlin Film Festival, raised his head slightly, looking arrogantly and confidently at the bottom of the stage—he seemed to want to use such expressions and movements to express himself, As well as the members of the jury, the absolute confidence in the selection results.

In the past few seconds, the filmmakers below the stage from dozens of countries around the world have experienced shock, astonishment, disbelief...and so many kinds of psychological activities.

They all turned their heads and paid attention to Li Qian.

They were whispering, or frowning... In front of such a sudden and shocking result, they seemed to want to express something.

However, six or seven seconds passed.

Li Qian's expression gradually calmed down.

Finally, applause sounded from his side.

The filmmaker Zhang Zifang, also from China, was the first to applaud.

Then, the applause gradually sounded within a second, and quickly became enthusiastic!

There is no doubt that the result is out and cannot be changed, nor can it be changed.

The jury is extremely confident in their vision!

And their vision made them admire the artistic level and artistic attainments shown in the movie "Red Sorghum" extremely!

So, after the three Silver Bear Awards, they generously awarded the highest prize, the Bear Award, to a young director from China, Li Qian.

All the noises disappeared.

A wave of applause surrounded Li Qian.

Li Qian, who came back to his senses and calmed down, pursed his lips slightly, then turned his head, and nodded slightly to Zhang Zifang, who was the first to applaud beside him, as if to thank him, then he got up and walked to the aisle.

At this moment, Zhang Zifang looked at his back, couldn't help but sighed and shook her head.

"Red Sorghum" won three Silver Bear Awards and one Golden Bear Award. After sweeping the Berlin Film Festival, Li Qian is sure to become famous all over the world!

In the past few years, the name Li Qian has always been the most popular name in the Chinese entertainment circle, music circle, and film and television circle. Every movie can be a big hit, so it is well known and recognized by everyone that he is the most appealing top superstar in China - even if Liao Liao had already gone international first, in everyone's heart, he still It is half a head shorter than Li Qian, a grade lower.

It seems that as long as Li Qian is there, as long as he stands there, no matter how popular your others are, you will always be competing for the title of China's second superstar, and it is impossible to really compare with him.

But in fact, in a relatively small circle, everyone still can't help but think that Li Qian is very good at doing commercial and popular things, and what he does is popular, as if he has completely It’s as if he has mastered the Chinese people’s consumption psychology—so much so that he can actually transfer his experience in making music and records to making TV dramas, and then transfer the thinking of making TV dramas to making movies, all of which are equally popular!

But that's all.

After discussing in the small circle, it is generally accepted that Li Qian is indeed a business genius in the entertainment circle, and he is indeed brilliant, but as a filmmaker from the photography department of Shuncheon Film Academy, these Over the years, there have been quite a few blockbuster movies and TV shows, many of which are phenomenal, but they have never dared to touch literary movies. Presumably, in this area, their self-knowledge is still limited.

Don't care if it's talking bitter words, or looking for psychological balance after a comprehensive inferiority, at least this statement is really widespread-in fact, those who play literary movies and those who play commercial movies do look down on each other ah! Literati look down on each other!

Therefore, when Qin Wei faced the media before, he would subconsciously say that Li Qian's film "has room for improvement in artistic expression".

Because this is actually not the opinion of Qin Wei alone, but the collective opinion of a considerable number of fans of literary and artistic films in the entire Chinese film circle.

Qin Wei, at best, is just the standard-bearer and chief rudder of this group of people!

Previously, Zhang Zifang had limited contact with Li Qian and limited understanding, so she was deeply affected by this statement-even when she watched "Red Sorghum" in Berlin a few days ago, deep down she wanted to She couldn't help admiring the film's amazing expressive power, but her mental thinking made her subconsciously underestimate Li Qian's skill in art films.

until now.

The four trophies at the Berlin Film Festival have proved how ignorant and ridiculous she is, and some of the views in the small circle she used to be in before.

The addition of these four trophies will be a historic breakthrough for Chinese films in the world!

Regardless of whether some people admit it or not, these four trophies will mean that after Qin Wei, China's film industry has risen to another peak!

In fact, when Qin Wei was recognized by the Venice Film Festival and was hailed as a film master, he was already in his forties. Today, Li Qian swept the Berlin Film Festival with "Red Sorghum", and has won consecutive awards. Li Qian, who has won three Silver Bear Awards and one Golden Bear Award, is only twenty-five years old!

Thinking of the name Qin Wei at this moment, Zhang Zifang subconsciously tensed up.

I thought: "I'm afraid there will be a show to watch now!"

…………

Qin Jingjing's slap was almost broken.

Finally, Li Qian stepped onto the podium and received the Golden Bear, which symbolized the highest award at the Berlin Film Festival, from the hand of Mr. Chidanda Hugo, chairman of the jury.

When the two embraced, Li Qian thanked the old man in a low voice.

Chidanda Hugo smiled after letting go of Li Qian: "Welcome to France as a guest, I have a lot of good wine, and I can introduce you to many interesting friends!"

There is no encouragement, no condescension, and nothing like "Make a good movie, I like you!", or "You deserve it!", nothing at all.

He just extended an invitation to Li Qian like a friend.

So Li Qian nodded with a smile and said, "Definitely."

The old man smiled, waved his hands, made a "please" gesture, and said, "Your time is up!"

Li Qian nodded, with the Silver Bear in one hand and the Golden Bear in the other, he turned and walked towards the speaker's seat.

Standing still, one on each side of the two trophies, and deliberately looking at each other again, then raised his head and faced the auditorium.

The microphone is neither high nor low, just right.

The audience gradually quieted down.

Everyone looked at Li Qian one after another.

Three Silver Bears followed by a Golden Bear. There is no doubt that this year's Berlin Film Festival belongs to "Red Sorghum" and this young man.

Therefore, many people want to know, at this moment, what will this young man who has won the four awards and swept this year's film festival say again--the speech he just received after winning the Silver Bear Award, although not without Biased, not unbiased, but honest and forthright, and insightful.

At this time, Li Qian subconsciously glanced at Mr. James McCullough—the old man had a calm face, but he habitually pursed his lips, as if he didn't miss out on the Berlin Film Festival awards because of his film And somewhat dissatisfied.

The eyes of the two met, and the old man nodded slightly.

Li Qian smiled and nodded.

Look away—the speech that should be made is still to be done.

But the problem is that the previously prepared speech has already been used!

And the bigger problem is that just now, as the best actor, I received the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, but I obviously spoke from a higher height.

So now, well, the jury was unexpectedly more daring than bold, and actually gave me the Golden Bear Award again. How do I say this?

…………

After a pause, Li Qian said: "They are even bolder than I imagined!"

This is the first sentence.

Almost immediately, there was a chuckle from the audience.

In his context, this is of course a compliment to the jury of this year's film festival headed by Chidanda Hugo, and at the same time, it is also an echo of his speech just now.

Li Qian spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, as if to express that he was "innocent".

The laughter in the audience suddenly became louder.

This is a speech without lines.

Withdrawing his arm, he looked down at the Silver Bear Award, and then turned his head to look at the Golden Bear Award. He said seriously: "I found that the Golden Bear Award seems to be more beautiful than the Silver Bear Award."

The audience suddenly burst into laughter.

There were at least dozens of people, scattered, laughing and applauding while shaking their heads.

It's great wit.

There is pride, self-satisfaction, self-confidence, but also ridicule of oneself.

Because...the Silver Bear Award also has one for him.

Li Qian himself also smiled.

After a pause, he said seriously: "Thank you to the Berlin Film Festival, thank you to the jury, thank you for choosing to award such an important award to me, to the film "Red Sorghum". The concept and pursuit of the film have been demonstrated in the film. What I want to express is that I hope that European film festivals can give more support and encouragement to films from China. As I have just said, now, All I want to say is - thank you!"

He picked up two trophies, one in each hand, and said, "Thank you for giving me such high recognition! I will try my best to make better movies to repay your trust and encouragement! Thank you all!"

Speaking of this, before the applause started, he suddenly raised his head to the sky, shook his hands clenched tightly on the trophy, and suddenly whispered in Chinese, "Thank you, National Teacher!"

***

July is coming to an end!

thank you all!
