Chapter 458: Send Back to China

Beijing.

Embassy in China.

Heng Anshi was one of the first people to receive the news. He was very happy and kept saying: "When I watched "Life is Beautiful", I was sure that it would be welcomed by the Western world, but winning the Golden Bear Award is still a bit beyond the expectations. My prediction, congratulations anyway!”

"Thank you also for your help. Those international friends provided a lot of help at the film festival. We have reached an agreement that they are very willing to come to China to see it. Most of them are Americans."

"Not only are they coming to China, but you are also going to the United States. We are going to hold a cultural exchange event!"

"Yes, everyone is looking forward to it!"

Overseas Chinese Affairs Office compound.

Wearing reading glasses, Mr. Liao finished reading the text with a smile on his face and said: "Well done this time, great! We are reforming and opening up, and the world is wary and curious about us. Movies are a good communication bridge.

It's a pity that the comrades before always took a breath, but now they have finally taken a big step forward! "

"More than that! That Ms. Shadra said she wanted to choose a school in Weifang, set up a scholarship, and award 1,000 US dollars every year to 10 students who excel in the college entrance examination.

She also wants to donate money to build a monument to Eric Liddell! "

"An American also said that he could help contact the TV station to make a documentary about China."

"Eric Liddell's daughter also expressed her position, saying that she can communicate with relevant institutions. It is more difficult in mainland China, but a fund can be set up in Hong Kong to support athletes."

"In short, they are very enthusiastic and hope to return to China!"

Mr. Liao was happy at first after hearing this, and then sighed: "We have been working for several years, and we have done so much external publicity work, but the actual effect is not as good as a movie. I don't know whether I should be happy or scolded?"

He is not only responsible for the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, but also has been in charge of external affairs for a long time. He founded the China News Service.

"When will they come back?"

"It should be the day after tomorrow!"

"When you come back, please come and sit with me.'

At this time, the report written by Ding Qiao was also sent to Red Wall.

Some major newspapers also received the news.

China Youth Daily.

"The latest news is that Eastern Company went to Berlin and won the Golden Bear—must see the report tomorrow—"

"Fuck!"

"Yu Jiajia, what did you say?"

"No, no, I can't help but say - Director, please write the manuscript for me!"

In one day, all the places related to the capital were known.

Lechunfang was forgotten and only remembered at last.

At night, the stove was burning in the office in the front yard, and the water was boiling on the stove. The room was warm, and the paper on the windows had not yet been removed - this is a basic thing to do in the winter in the north, papering the windows.

"Say something! Say something!"

"Hahaha!"

Everyone gathered in the room and watched countless replays of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Li Jianqun was wrapped in a blanket.

While watching and knitting, Ji Chunhua squatted on the ground, holding a big bowl and drinking tea noodles.

I don’t need to explain the oil tea noodles, everyone who has eaten them will understand.

Several editors were sitting together, Liang Xiaosheng was also there, and his partner Jiao Dan was also there. The two were already discussing marriage.

Although Jiao Dan is not a person who hates poverty and loves wealth, everyone wants to live a better life. She is extremely satisfied with Liang Xiaosheng's current situation: high salary, good benefits, Lechunfang is a world of its own behind closed doors, small but warm, far away There is no intrigue like that of a large unit.

In the main room in the front yard, two of them are Liang Xiaosheng's dormitories.

After all, this is Chen Qi's private residence, and it doesn't matter if he works, but they still feel it's inappropriate to use this dormitory as a wedding room. They discussed it and decided to wait until the building is completed before holding the wedding. Anyway, it can be completed within the year.

Construction of this building started last year.

"The water is boiling! Who wants to drink water?"

Dai Hanhan picked up a big kettle and asked. Ji Chunhua took it and washed the bottom of the camellia noodles. Dai Hanhan took out a huge sweet potato, cut it into slices with a knife and roasted it on the stove.

Having something to eat, drink, and watch TV is enough for a lifetime these days.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

A rapid knock on the door disturbed everyone, and they looked suspicious. Who could come so late?

"Let me take a look!"

Ji Chunhua did his duty, put on a cotton-padded jacket and left the house. After a while, he led Li Mingfu in.

"Hey, Uncle Li! Why are you here in person?"

"You drink water!"

"Do you want to eat the roasted sweet potato?"

Li Mingfu, the nominal top leader of the East Factory, was flattering for a while, but he was too lazy to talk nonsense and waved his hand: "I'm here to tell you some good news. Everyone is so busy today that I have forgotten you.

Didn't Xiao Chen and the others go to Berlin? Good news came, I won the Golden Bear Award! "

"Really?"

"Oh my god, Teacher Chen is so awesome!"

"I'll just say it, I'll say it. Teacher Chen will definitely come back victorious this time. Sometimes I really feel that he has some special powers. He shouldn't stay in the literary and art world, but should go to Bureau 749!"

"Come on, 749 rounds is too long!"

Li Mingfu came to announce the good news and left after saying that. Liang Xiaosheng was the backbone and clapped his hands and said: "Although we are a magazine, we are also a part of Oriental Company. The Golden Bear Award is everyone's honor.

I believe they will be back soon. Tomorrow we will clean the yard and prepare some firecrackers...--Oh, by the way, Xiaoji, why don't you tell Zhang Yimou and the others after your hard work? "

"OK!"

Ji Chunhua left without saying a word.

I rode my bicycle all the way to Erlong Road in the cold wind at night.

In the dormitory.

Zhang Yimou, Zhang Junzhao, He Ping, and He Qun were all there. Zhang Yimou's wife's job transfer had been decided and she would come to Beijing when the weather was warm.

A few people also bought some wine and side dishes, ate and drank, and talked about the "Black Cannon Incident". For this film, Chen Qi promised to give them RMB 700,000, and he didn't care about anything, including the production, and left it to his brothers.

The subject matter of this film is very sensitive.

The male protagonist, whose surname is Zhao, is an engineer and is proficient in German. He has never been married for half his life. He lives alone and likes to play chess alone.

He had a cherished chess set. When he came back from a business trip, he found that a black cannon chess piece was missing. He hurried to the post and telecommunications office and sent a telegram to the guest house saying "Lost black cannon 301 is looking for Zhao", which meant that he asked the guest house to help go to 301. Room search.

Unexpectedly, this strange message aroused the vigilance of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau. They thought it was an enemy agent and immediately notified the police, who found the unit again. The company is cooperating with Germany on a project, and the male protagonist is a translator. As a result, he is transferred from his position, which in turn introduces a series of negative reactions.

This kind of film has no commercial value, but it has a high film and television status and can win awards.

Zhang Junzhao is the director, Zhang Yimou is the cinematographer, He Ping is the deputy director and producer, and He Qun is the art and producer. They all rushed to release the film.

‘We have to find a German to act, we can’t fool him with a brother from an ethnic minority. ’

"Teacher Chen happened to go to Germany. Let him help me when I come back.'

"Well, this works!"

"Comrades!"

Zhang Junzhao took a sip of wine, slapped the porcelain jar, and said: "Teacher Chen is true to his word. He really gives us a movie operation, and it is such a good script. How much trust does this show?

Not to mention that guy Tian Zhuangzhuang, among the brothers and sisters who graduated, we are the first to film independently, right? "

"Yeah yeah!"

"So we can't let them down. Come on, I suggest that we shave our heads after drinking to show our determination!"

"Why don't you forget it and shave your head?"

"Get out!"

While they were chatting, Ji Chunhua's loud voice shouted from outside: "Are you all here? Are you all here?"

"Who?"

"What's going on?"

The four of them opened the door and came out. Xiong Xinxin and Sun Jiankui from next door also came out. Ji Chunhua said without any nonsense, "I just got the news that we won the Golden Bear Award in Berlin. Let me tell you!"

Buzz!

Xiong Xinxin and Sun Jiankui didn't understand much and didn't react much, but those four people were like a big bell hitting their ears. It was like a yellow bell and a big Lu, like clouds opening and the moon shining, and it was like a voice warning them. excitation.

I returned to the house feeling dizzy.

The four of them looked at each other and opened their mouths at the same time. Zhang Yimou showed his big teeth and had more wrinkles on his face, like a terracotta warrior who wanted to eat people. He said excitedly: "Chen, Teacher Chen-----Edi Shen" Yeah, I’ll take the Golden Bear Award. Come to think of it, I’m also a photographer, how proud I am!”

"I'm still the assistant director!"

"Ha, I'm still an artist!"

"Come on, come on, let's do this. It's a huge joy! Our Chinese film has become the first hit."

"Yes, the first shot!"

"It's up to us now!"
