Chapter 366: Golden Bear's Speech
Yan Danchen arrived at the hotel at 11:30 that night.
She came with Guorong.
Guorong came to support Lu Pingan this time.
"1937" has a different meaning. In order to show support, he and Mei Gu quietly organized some things in Hong Kong.
When things get worse, he will clearly stand up and express his support.
Guorong is also quite popular in Japan. If he really wants to do this, needless to say, his activities in Japan will definitely be restricted.
But Guorong said, I am almost sixty years old and still afraid of these?
So after seeing Guorong, Lu Pingan gave him a big bear hug.
Guorong showed a look of disgust: "Oh, you smell of alcohol!"
At this time, Lu Pingan realized that Guorong was really good.
But the halo did not flash, so he couldn't help thinking, could it be that Guorong's orientation has changed again?
Looking again, it seems that he hasn't seen that person for several years.
Lu Pingan couldn't help feeling guilty.
It seems that I haven't had a good chat with Guo Rong for several years. I have neglected it. Shu Shu shouldn't be like this!
Before I could think about it, Yan Danchen on the side spoke up: "Are you okay?"
Because Ning Hao and the others were there, Yan Danchen tried her best to suppress her inner emotions.
The threat Lu Ping'an had suffered in the past few days was exposed, and Yan Danchen was worried. She had said earlier that she would come to the United States to find him, but Lu Ping'an refused on the grounds of safety.
Now that Yan Danchen finally saw him, she couldn't suppress her emotions.
Seeing this, Lu Ping'an smiled and opened his arms, not caring about the surprised eyes behind him, hugged her and kissed her: "I made you worry."
Yan Danchen's eyes showed surprise and panic at the time, and then she was quickly moved to tears and couldn't speak.
Seeing that everyone around her was looking at her, the disguise she had been accustomed to for a long time collapsed instantly, and then she didn't know how to face it for a while, so she simply buried her face in Lu Ping'an's chest.
Now everyone around her understood.
"Good boy, you hide it very well!" Zhang Songwen laughed.
Ning Hao and Zhou Yiwei looked at each other with slanted eyebrows.
Isn't Lu Ping'an's girlfriend Li Zi?
How
"Fuck!"
Ning Hao was the first to react.
It turned out that Lu Ping'an was not talking nonsense at that time!
"Fuck fuck fuck!"
Zhou Yiwei and the others also understood.
Then they followed Ning Hao and shouted there.
"Be quiet, it's the middle of the night, be careful of attracting complaints!"
Lu Ping'an warned with a smile.
Ning Hao and Zhou Yiwei each hugged his neck: "I think you should be worried about yourself!"
Seeing several people playing around, Yan Danchen just laughed there, she thought she was taken and irritated these fools.
After helping Guo Rong to get a bed, Lu Ping'an was soon blocked by several people in Ning Hao's room.
"Tell the truth!"
Ning Hao held a cigarette butt, looking threatening.
Lu Pingan sighed: "Emotions are hard to explain."
"Stop talking nonsense. I'll just ask you, do they know?"
"She doesn't know yet, but everyone else knows."
"Wait, the others?"
"Yes, there are two more besides Li Zi."
Three people: "Fuck, you're playing with fire, you know?!"
"I've already said it, emotions are hard to explain, this is a disaster, who made me encounter it? If I can't get through it, I'll die, if I get through it, everyone will be happy, brothers, it's up to you whether to help me or not!"
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck!"
The three people went crazy.
But they are brothers after all.
Ordinary friends will argue with you about the pros and cons at this time.
Brothers will argue with you about the pros and cons, and no matter what decision you make, they will help you without hesitation.
Of course, the premise is that the matter is still acceptable.
And Lu Pingan's statement is not particularly excessive.
No marriage, no crime, just children.
Although the reason is a bit far-fetched, what is the fear of losing the child and having another mother.
But at least it is feasible, isn't it?
Everyone smoked cigarettes, frowned, and interrogated until 3 o'clock. Zhou Yiwei was the first to break the silence: "If you are really gone, I can be the father of your child."
The other two also sighed: "Me too."
Lu Ping'an laughed and scolded: "You wish!"
But the matter was considered to be passed.
It's just that everyone is not optimistic about whether Lu Ping'an can really handle so many women in the end.
Although Lu Ping'an is handsome, rich, talented, famous and has status.
But who knows what will happen in the future.
But it doesn't matter, even if you can't handle it, there are still brothers, and you can lean on your shoulders when the time comes.
Starting from the next day, what happened last night was treated as if it had never happened, and everyone did what they should do.
In fact, there was no time to pay attention to Lu Ping'an's private life.
Because the award ceremony was getting closer and closer, there were more and more things.
After the public threat, "1937" is no longer a simple movie.
So these days, international attention has been cast on it, making the Berlin Film Festival, the most low-key of the three major festivals, a highlight.
The film festival is very happy about this.
I knew it was right to bring Lu Ping'an here!
Domestic celebrities also came to support the platform one after another.
Guo Rong was the first to come.
On the day of the award ceremony on the 18th, Han Sanpin, the president of Beijing Film Academy, Tian Zhuangzhuang and others came.
Some senior members of the Film Association, such as Xie Jin and Xie Fei, also came.
Wang Xiaoshuai and other sixth-generation directors also came to support the platform.
Among the fifth generation, Lao Mouzi was the chairman of the jury this year. Among the others, the great poet did not come, but Chen Hong came.
It can be seen that the great poet still felt a little embarrassed, but Chen Hong's presence also showed his attitude.
In Hong Kong, Cheng Long, Lian Jie, Hua Zai, and Xu Laoguai Chen Jiashang also took time to come and stand on the stage.
In addition to celebrities, domestic media are also indispensable.
CCTV came this time.
It can be seen that the domestic government attaches great importance to this award, or to "1937".
Such a group of Chinese filmmakers came, making this Berlin Film Festival full of "Chinese spirit"!
Lu Pingan expressed his gratitude to everyone for coming.
You know, today is the Chinese New Year!
Everyone is here, which is naturally of great significance.
Although there is also some meaning of being too arrogant.
But Lu Pingan can't really think so.
So there is nothing to say, after this Golden Bear, I have to get along well with everyone.
But this is also good, you help me and I help you.
As the protagonist, Lu Ping'an has completely consolidated his position as the "first person" through this.
In other words, this Berlin Film Festival has become half of the home court for Chinese filmmakers, and the meaning conveyed is also very obvious, which has caused considerable pressure on certain forces.
Of course, the most ridiculous person is still Wang Quan'an.
This time, I am afraid that my Golden Bear will be in vain!
It is not to say that the result can be influenced by pressure.
But "1937" is indeed one of the hottest this time.
Technology, art and other aspects are very balanced.
Although it is still a little worse than orthodox art films in general.
But the precious thing about "1937" is "the first time".
It is not the first time to use a single shot.
It is the first time to perfectly integrate and show various film languages.
The theme is also in line with Berlin's preferences.
As one of the three major Berlins, the reason why Lu Ping'an was able to come is that they value these.
Such a fierce film really cannot be ignored.
In addition to the current situation.
Lao Mouzi, you better stop worrying about my face.
Soon, the red carpet of the award ceremony began.
Fan Xiaopang is indeed the best of this year, wearing a Chinese-style dress with the theme of "Searching for Plum Blossoms in the Snow", which amazed everyone.
Yan Danchen and Liu Qianqian's dresses are also good, both in Chinese style, one is dignified, and the other is playful and exquisite.
Lu Pingan is wearing a suit, but his tie is the same red with auspicious cloud pattern.
By the way, the 2008 Olympic torch has been confirmed in January. As expected, the Xingchen team won the honor with a more sophisticated and comprehensive plan than Lenovo.
This is Xingchen's first victory in the new year, earlier than "The Bucket List".
Lu Pingan is justified this time.
After all, he is a designer.
The host on the scene also mentioned this point, and then the frequency of the flash became higher.
The flash clicked.
At the same time, security was also paid great attention.
Death threats are no joke, and the Berlin Film Festival has also noticed this, so the security measures for the entire film festival this time can be regarded as the strongest since the 21st century.
After entering the venue, Lu Pingan did not rest, and freely switched to talk with a group of filmmakers in English, German, Chinese and French.
What is an international director? At least the basic skills are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Then sat down at the seat.
Lao Hu asked as he did every award ceremony before: "Have you thought about the acceptance speech?"
Lu Pingan smiled and nodded his head: "I know it by heart."
Lao Hu then asked Zhou Yiwei.
Zhou Yiwei blinked, then quickly took out the stir-fried dishes and continued to recite.
Lao Hu smiled and sighed: "Ping An, you are like this for the first time."
Lu Pingan smiled and shook his head, and he was also quite emotional.
But what he sighed about was actually not this matter.
Soon, with the chairman of the jury, Lao Mouzi, coming on stage, the award ceremony began.
As before, first the non-main competition, then the main competition, first the short film, then the record.
The first Chinese award in the main competition unit was won by Taiwanese director Chen Junlin's "Beauty", which won the Silver Bear Award for Short Film.
Then all the awards passed, and no yellow people won awards.
Zhou Yiwei was very sorry that he failed to win the Best Actor Award, but he was very happy.
Then came the Best Director Award, and there was still no Chinese.
Then came the second prize, which was the Jury Grand Prize. This time, Wang Quanan finally reached the peak of his life.
After Wang Quanan's somewhat incoherent acceptance speech, everyone's eyes were focused on the stage.
Kendalo came on stage and read out the Golden Bear Award for this year.
Not surprisingly, Kendalo read out "Lu~Ping An!"
Finally, the name was read correctly in the three major European occasions!
Lu Ping An stood up and hugged his friends.
Then he walked onto the stage.
The result was the Golden Bear.
At this moment, he looked down at the stage.
At a glance.
Among the applauding people, there were many Chinese people.
Among these people, there were strangers, familiar people, former opponents, and current friends.
Everyone came to the platform today to support him.
He knew that so many people came here not only for him, but more for what he did.
At this moment, he was full of emotion.
He had come a long way.
From striving for personal food and clothing, to personal wealth, to personal honor, now, it seems that he has finally reached the stage of fighting for the honor of society or the country.
It is never too late to realize it later.
Indeed, there has never been a time when I stood on the podium before, I felt so many emotions, so happy, and so sacred as today.
It was not because of the Berlin Film Festival, not because of the Golden Bear Award, not because everyone came from afar to show their support and thus demonstrated their status, but because they did something they should do, something that was right but difficult and dangerous.
At this moment, his mind suddenly flashed back to his friends' worries, the passion and perseverance of his team, his lover's anxiety, and his teacher's encouragement.
His nose was sour, and he forgot the acceptance speech that he had memorized by heart.
Or rather, Lu Pingan took the initiative to forget it.
He walked into the microphone, raised the Golden Bear Award with a smile, and said in German:
"Thanks to the organizing committee, thanks to my team, I finally have a Golden Bear of normal size."
The audience applauded loudly. Everyone knew that Lu Pingan had won the Golden Bear for short films before.
Then, Lu Ping'an said in Chinese with tears in his eyes:
"Do you know what I want to do most now? I really want to eat mutton from the northwest of the motherland, Wenchang chicken from Hainan, glutinous rice from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, morning tea from Hong Kong, oyster omelette from Taiwan, mushroom hot pot from the southwest, and blood sausage from the northeast. I want to eat all the delicacies on the land that the martyrs have protected for us, more than ever!"
The Chinese people in the audience were stunned at first, and then applauded.
After listening to the translation, the other guests followed suit and applauded.
