China Entertainment: Director’s happiness is so simple

Chapter 29 Shanghai Film Festival, Mouse Yearns for Spring

On the 9th, Lu Pingan, Hu Qingquan and Ning Hao went to the opening ceremony of the Shanghai Film Festival.

This time, his main task, besides attending the film festival to promote, is to promote his own movie "The Tuner".

After landing in the Magic City, they got on the pick-up car arranged by Shanghai Film Industry. After settling down in the hotel and resting for a while, they went to the scene.

When we arrived at the venue, Mr. Ren, a person in charge of Shanghai Film Group Corporation, came over to receive us. He took Lu Ping'an and others around to introduce the venue, and the main introduction was to the short film unit.

At this film festival, Lu Ping'an's "The Tuner" and "Black Hole" became the opening films of the short film section.

Before this, there was no short film section in the Shanghai Film Festival.

In other words, it was Lu Ping An's short film that won the award that promoted the development in this area to a certain extent.

This made Lu Ping'an feel hot again, but he was indeed happy. After all, this was another form of leaving his name in film history.

However, he is naturally unwilling to let him be a judge or something, as it is too attracting attention.

"Thank you, Mr. Ren, for your kindness. I will settle down for a few more years."

19-year-old Lu Pingan continues to be modest.

Mr. Ren of Shanghai Film Festival did not insist, because what he said was also polite, and the organizing committee was not going to make a real selection of short films this year. The total number of short films this time was only 9, except for Lu Ping'an's two. The quality is average, to put it bluntly, it's just a make-up.

So Mr. Ren from Shanghai Film Studio made an appointment for next time.

"Okay, I'll definitely come next time if I have time."

Lu Pingan agreed, and he would make flexible arrangements as to whether he had time.

Then the person in charge of SIFF continued to take Lu Pingan and Hu Qingquan around the venue to introduce the film festival.

The Magic City Film Festival is also a Category A film festival. The number of feature films this time was attended by 874 Chinese and foreign filmmakers from 350 film companies in 22 countries. Among the 376 films registered for competition from 41 countries and regions, 161 films were selected to participate in the film screening and finally compete for the "Golden Goblet Award".

Overall, it looks like they are copying the top three in Europe. The scale is getting bigger every time. Now it is the fifth time. This has also made Shanghai Film's reputation in the industry surpass the big brother China Film.

But Lu Pingan knew that at the end of 2001, various giants in the domestic film industry held a meeting and participated in three symposiums organized by the Film Producers Association, the Development and Exhibition Association, and the Urban Cinema Development Association.

Originally, Shanghai Film Corporation was confident that it wanted to overthrow China Film Corporation's monopoly on imported films in one fell swoop, and it was very confident.

Both the official media and the lower-level media are optimistic that Shanghai Film can knock Big Brother to the ground or establish a new one.

But in the end, I don’t know why. China Film’s position remained strong, but the momentum of Shanghai Film’s rise was suppressed, and a new Huaxia Film was established. This newly established mountaintop attracted many giants to join, but it still only had imported films. Distribution rights, no import rights.

Import rights are still firmly in the hands of China Film.

In the end, Shangying felt that it was China Film that had done this, and the two families hated each other.

So looking at Mr. Ren who was talking freely and proudly, Lu Pingan could only mourn for him in his heart.

However, Shanghai Film failed in the battle for the leading stick, but it did not affect Lu Ping An's future cooperation with them.

For example, this time, the Shanghai Film Academy was able to come and receive him in person. On the one hand, Lu Ping'an is famous here. He is the most accomplished among domestic short film directors. The short film unit would not be able to stand without him.

It’s also about future cooperation.

Previously, Lu Ping An had decided to make three animated short films. If he wanted to make them, he would have to find a professional team.

The most professional team in China at the moment is Shanghai Film Factory, which is owned by Shanghai Film Studio.

After getting in touch with Hu Qingquan, Shanghai Film Studio took it very seriously and opened the door to cooperation. After all, who wouldn't like someone who can win prizes? So the reception standards were increased a lot.

Of course, in addition to short films, Shanghai Film also values ​​feature films.

I don’t know if Lu Ping An’s achievements in big movies will be good in the future. It is definitely right to form a good relationship now, and China Film cannot take away all the good things. . .

After the introduction, the opening ceremony has almost begun.

There are many guests here this time, including Pan Hong, Zhang Fengyi, Li Binbin and many foreigners whose names cannot be named but who look very famous. There are many celebrities who look familiar at first glance.

Gao Yuanyuan also came, and she was surprised when she saw Lu Pingan: "You are so tall now, I can't even recognize you."

The last time the two met was in Berlin. At that time, Lu Pingping was less than 1.8 meters tall and his body was very thin.

It's different now. After half a year of transformation and exercise, he now looks thin when wearing clothes, has muscles when undressing, and is in excellent shape.

From Gao Yuanyuan's point of view, this was a huge change.

Fortunately, the facial features didn't change much, they were just fine-tuned to be perfect. Gao Yuanyuan could still recognize it, and was surprised for a moment.

"Thanks."

Lu Ping'an responded with a smile, and Gao Yuanyuan then complained: "Where is the treat I promised after winning the grand prize?"

"Then let's get together tonight."

"It's agreed."

"Of course, I've wanted to eat soup dumplings for a long time."

"Just treat me to soup dumplings?"

"Add another portion of fried rice, no more, otherwise you won't be able to lose weight."

Gao Yuanyuan's big eyes were made to roll, and his face, which was still a little baby fat, became a little rosy.

The opening ceremony was over, followed by the opening of the short film section. Lu Pingan went up to the stage and said a few good words, "I hope the short film section of the Shanghai Film Festival will be better and better..."

Then it was basically fine.

He will be visiting the Magic City for the next two days.

As an international metropolis, Magic City is also another important town in the domestic film and television entertainment industry. Everything is based on the economy and is rich in literature, art, fashion, film and television and other resources.

He had been to the Magic City three times in his previous life, but every time he came there were violent storms and very evil conditions, so he actually didn't have a good impression of the city.

In the evening, I visited the Magic City with Hu Qingquan and the others. Gao Yuanyuan also followed and became a tour guide.

With the company of beautiful women, the men became much more gentlemen, and their vision of the night scene became much more artistic.

Some buildings with the style of the Republic of China are very period and have a strong commercial atmosphere. They are worthy of being an economic bridgehead.

Some local accents are hard to understand except for Lu Ping'an, but it does not hinder everyone's interest in visiting. After all, foreigners are the mainstream group.

Lu Ping'an likes the sweet dish very much. It is a familiar taste from his previous life, and he is not used to it at all. It is a pity that the orphanage in his previous life is gone. He went to visit it when he traveled back in time, but it is really missing. Otherwise, he would have to donate everything. Point money. . .

The street scene at night is beautiful. The Huangpu River has witnessed many past events in the magical city.

Gao Yuanyuan, who was blowing the wind, suddenly said that she wanted to drink, and Lu Pingan felt that she seemed to have something on her mind.

Ning Hao agreed directly. How could he not go to a nightclub when he came to Shanghai?

Everyone then found a bar and went in to sit.

The more developed the economy, the richer the nightlife, the feasting, and the traffic on the road is more congested than during the day.

It's a pity that Lu Ping'an doesn't like places like nightclubs.

Too mixed.

In addition, Gao Yuanyuan's fame seems to be a problem. She is not particularly famous now, but she is still a star, and she is beautiful. Beautiful people always cause trouble.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for her to be recognized, and the person who came seemed a little presumptuous.

So everyone left the bar without drinking for a while.

The nightclub was ruined, and everyone had no intention to continue shopping, so they went back to the hotel to rest. It turned out that Gao Yuanyuan and everyone were staying in the same hotel, but it was already late, and even though the hotel had a small bar, everyone was no longer interested. .

They each went back to their rooms. Lu Pingan and Ning Hao shared a room.

After the two entered the room, Ning Hao started gossiping: "Is Gao Yuanyuan single?"

"Most likely not."

At this time, his relationship with Zhang Yadong has not yet been exposed, and they will have to wait until 2005.

In addition, Lu Ping'an is also in the circle now. He is better off than Ning Hao and naturally knows more.

There are already rumors about the two of them.

"Oh, what a pity."

"Mouse, you are in love with yourself."

"Fuck you, where's the remote control..."

Ning Hao was a little embarrassed and started looking for the remote control all over the world.

Lu Ping'an thought to himself that Ning Hao must have been with Xing Aina around this time.

Now he is not as poor as in the original time and space. He has earned a lot of money from doing projects on his own, which can be regarded as a lot of nourishment in life. He does not have to go out to work and make money by painting for others like the original time and space.

In this way, can they meet and be together?

While thinking, Ning Hao had already turned on the TV.

"Shanghai is so advanced and has an English station!"

Ning Hao clicked the remote control, dozens of channels went around in a circle, and the RB animation "Iron Train Man" popped up. Ning Hao glanced at Lu Ping'an and thought it would be better to change the channel to avoid being called naive, and finally A TV series is locked.

"Legend of Heaven and Earth: The Mermaid" is a new film released in the mainland this year, starring Xu Huaiyu and Guo Jinan, and is an early work of the Tang Dynasty.

Thinking of Tang Dynasty, Lu Ping'an thought of Xiang Guoqiang and wondered how the copyright negotiations were going with him. . .
