You Made Me a Superstar Chapter 78

   Chapter 78 Red Carpet

   "Hero" exploded.

  The 8-stage rehearsal in the No. 8 screening hall was full, and even many foreigners were crowded in the corridor of the screening hall and stood watching movies.

   This is a grand event that the Berlin International Film Festival has not seen for many years, and it is also a symptom of an explosion.

The $32 million film was a big hit when it premiered in Berlin. The ruthless protagonist flying around with a sword, the mysterious oriental martial arts color and a hint of Western individual heroism, combined The shocking war scenes and epic soundtracks perfectly hit the G-spot of these foreigners.

  Many people are a little unbelievable after reading it.

   "The special effects of Huaxia movies can be done so beautifully!"

   Shen Changwei is very busy.

   has been invited to various gatherings in Berlin. At every gathering, a group of filmmakers will eagerly chat with Shen Changwei about the copyright of "Hero"!

   Fools all know that this Chinese film will be a big hit, not only will it explode, but even the whole of Berlin, becoming the NO1 in the Berlin International Film Festival.

  Shen Changwei and the production company have a firm grip on other overseas rights and distribution of the film.

   Overseas Chinese film copyrights are generally bought out, and the copyrights in Laomei have been packaged and sold to Universal and Fox, the eight major Hollywood film companies, before the start of Berlin.

Although the buyout price is one of the highest in Huaxia movies, it is higher than Chen Kai's "Overlord", but Shen Changwei feels that it is a loss, and the behind-the-scenes production company Brother Pictures also feels that it is a loss, they should sign Divide!

It's a pity that no matter how good the Chinese directors are, they are still not enough to watch on the old American side. Moreover, the eight major Hollywood production companies are quite domineering. Basically, 70% of the resources are in their hands. You talk to them and divide it. They don't slap you at all. If you're not convinced to sign with other small production companies, you won't get overseas publicity resources at all, or you'll be suppressed, buried and killed.

   Of course, there is another reason.

Last year, Chen Kai's "Tianji" had such a bad influence. With the popularity and word of mouth of "Overlord", he took the script and cooperated with Global. Joining the ranks of Xuanfa requires resources for resources, and exposure for exposure. As a result, Chen Kai directly performed a "spot explosion" with others. Not only was the Huaxia box office blown up, but the global side also lost a lot of blood and investment. The department managers were all packed up and left.

Oh shit!

  People are still spouting at Chen Kai on Twitter.

Hollywood, who didn't have much confidence in Chinese movies at first, has gone through the ups and downs of "Tianji", and will definitely be more cautious when facing "Heroes". Although they are very optimistic about this movie, they will at most give you a good buyout. price…

others?

  Don't even think about it!

  There are so many Hollywood blockbusters, can't you make a Chinese blockbuster?

  Shen Changwei was speechless about this, but he couldn't help it, Hollywood is the world's movie hall!

   After this hero becomes popular, you will be eligible to talk to others about the conditions of the new movie, otherwise, the Huaxia director's cards are still worse.

certainly…

  Except for the old beauty, Shen Changwei and the behind-the-scenes company Brother Pictures are still quite pretentious in front of filmmakers in other countries.

   Only sign for share, not buy out. If you want to sign, sign or not, I will sign to others. Anyway, you have seen the potential of "Heroes", and this is to send you money.

  Compared with the popularity of the movie "Hero" all over the street, the screening of "The Bottom of the Mine" is actually not very good.

Although the film critics who have seen it have rated the film relatively high and the popularity is not bad, since the chairman Charlotte Sally went to support other films, the popularity of "The Bottom of the Mine" has visibly dropped. .

   In the last few shows, the movie hall with about 100 people was not full at all, and some people even left in the middle.

There are only a few    fanatical literary and artistic fans, and most fans really don't like watching this kind of alternative gloomy picture.

   After all, this is a niche movie from China.

   During this period of time in Berlin, Zhou Yang did not sleep well. Although the time difference from Huaxia was only six hours, he still had the time difference. He often had insomnia for no reason, and then he was very sleepy during the day.

   Fortunately, there is no other job during the day. After the release of "The Bottom of the Mine", he followed Wang Shuai to watch the participating films over and over again, and then listened to Wang Shuai to teach himself some of the filming methods and techniques used in the film.

   Zhou Yang seemed to understand something, but after going back, he thought about it for a long time before he understood a little bit.

  The time soon came to the morning of March 1st.

   Zhou Yang had a very rare sleep, and slept from eight o'clock in the evening until nine in the morning.

After    woke up, he was full of energy and full of curiosity about the closing ceremony of the Berlin International Film Festival.

Although he seldom pays attention to the entertainment industry, Zhou Yang can hear some people around him from time to time talking about the stunning appearance of an actress in a dragon robe at the XX Film Festival, competing for beauty on the red carpet, and turning on the TV news. I will see many stars in the movie channel chatting about interesting things on the red carpet of various film festivals. When they chat, their eyes are full of excitement, and they can feel the pride of each other through the screen, even if she is just rubbing there. In one wave, it is just as vain to put on a pose without any progress in the work at all.

   If you can get a little closer to the shortlisted movie of so-and-so, go over a little bit and walk the red carpet with the hands of the crew?

   Hey, when you come back, you can sneer for a long time?

When the crew of "The Bottom of the Mine" arrived in Berlin, they had contact with many inexplicable Chinese female stars, and some female stars even hinted to Zhou Yang through various channels, saying that they could accompany others to watch the "Luminous Script", and volunteered It is recommended that you act as a thief, and you can have any role in what role you want.

   These second- and third-tier female stars did not succeed in their "yang conspiracy". They were all rejected by Wang Shuai, and they were also scolded.

   Didn't these guys come together to block "Mining Bottom"?

   After getting up, brushing his teeth and washing his face, what Zhou Yang waited for was not a hearty hotel breakfast, but the design of the toilet brother "TOTO" and others.

   He put on a new tuxedo, still wearing the familiar flat mirror, the hairstyle in front of him was slightly turned in a semicircle, and he could feel an alternative trend through the mirror.

  The leather shoes fit very well, but after wearing them, the toilet brother carefully measured the distance between the steps of the leather shoes.

   "Director Zhou, on the red carpet, I personally feel that you need to walk with your left foot... The red carpet is about 350 meters long. Start with your left foot before the red carpet, and just right after the red carpet..."

   "Director Zhou, in addition to this, your walking posture needs to be adjusted. We try to make every step the same, reflecting the extravagance of the gentleman's style."

   "At the same time, we have to focus our eyes and smile with a smile on our faces. When someone comes to take a picture, you have to take this pose..."

   After tossing until after 11 noon, Zhou Yang walked out of the room hungry.

After    came to the hotel lobby, everyone from the crew was waiting for him there.

   Four o'clock in the afternoon.

   With the end of the movie "Guardian", the 56th Berlin Gong Film Festival finally ushered in the closing ceremony.

  The time has not officially started, but the red carpet was filled with countless reporters and filmmakers, and there were occasional screams and camera shutter sounds from the crowd.

   There are many Huaxia reporters and Huaxia fans this year.

   At first glance, there is a yellow-skinned Chinese man between every three foreigners.

The news that the film "Heroes" was a big hit in Berlin spread to China, and many domestic media and fans rushed to this place, and they came to witness the opening of the era of blockbusters belonging to the Chinese film era, and even small leaders of some departments also Come to join in the fun.

The movie "Tianji" is really too pitiful. They urgently need a Chinese blockbuster that can really hold down Hollywood movies to find their way back. When they saw the momentum of "Hero", they were instantly excited, and even There are already many media in Huaxia reporting how many Berlin awards Shen Changwei can win, and whether he can become famous in one battle, kill Berlin first, then enter the Oscars, and finally bomb all Europe and the United States, just like the "Time Machine" in the world movie. The circle set off a stormy sea, leaving a rich and colorful stroke!

   "It was the beginning of an era..."

   "The era of Hollywood's suppression of Chinese films has passed..."

   "The new era of martial arts movies officially begins!"

   All kinds of similar bragging film reviews have simply smashed the major media in China.

   Under such circumstances, Zhou Yang's "The Bottom of the Mine" was rather embarrassing.

  The overseas copyrights sell well. In fact, apart from the money defrauded by the two scammers, this movie is not a loss at present. If it can premiere in China and earn a little bit of box office, this movie can be completely profitable.

The reputation here in Berlin is also good. The chairman's personal support has also attracted many Chinese media's attention to the movie "The Bottom of the Mine", but the opponents of "The Bottom of the Mine" are so terrifying that all Chinese reporters feel that this is so terrifying. Movies are there to accompany you.

The Best Supporting Actor Award goes to Freddy of "Blade Hunter". Freddy is one of the most powerful actors in Europe. In the first year of his debut, he was shortlisted for the best Oscar for "Time Machine", a movie that bombed the world. The Newcomer Award, although it did not win, but at this time there are excellent works born every year, although it has been running every year, but the word of mouth is quite good, and when this "Wasteland Hunter" was released in Berlin, many people have almost This film is equated with "Heroes", both of which are the most potential contenders for the Golden Bear Award...

   And the opponents of the Silver Bear Award for Outstanding Artistic Contribution are "Particles", "Bella's Last Days" and "Heroes" such as the international director-level movies!

   "The Bottom of the Mine" What is this not a companion run?

   Five o'clock in the afternoon.

When the "Mine Bottom" crew walked the red carpet, except for some Chinese media asking questions about their confidence and some girls watching Zhou Yang's dress up and screaming, there was almost no other focus, and the camera did not give much attention. many.

   After walking the red carpet, the reporters excitedly surrounded "Heroes" again. Shen Changwei was surrounded like a hedgehog, forcing Lai Lai to say a series of words.

After walking the red carpet, Zhou Yang subconsciously looked at the screaming crew of "Heroes", staring at every big celebrity in the crew, observing how they looked when facing reporters, and even a little bit. get together...

   He hopes to learn something.

"It doesn't matter, no one wins the award as soon as they come to Berlin. If a new director wins the award as soon as he arrives, won't the other directors be **** off? To be shortlisted in Berlin means victory... Next, let's see the world!" Wang Shuai He patted Zhou Yang on the shoulder, thinking that Zhou Yang was lost because he was not paid attention.

  "..." Zhou Yang nodded, still staring at the "Heroes" crew, especially when he saw international action superstar Li Lianlong in front of reporters, his charming smile, and the sense of self-confidence that came from within.

   He was envious.

   How many years does he have to practice to be as confident as he is?
