Chapter 118 opens!
Normally, the jury during this period cannot have contact with the participating directors.
This is also the reason why Chen An did not go to find her.
But since she came here herself and she is the chairman of the jury, naturally she has the final say.
Chen An's toes were now clenched tightly and he just wanted to run away.
He didn't care at all about his senior brother's pleading look. Instead, he was thinking about where Uncle Ge was and whether he should go to the train station to pick him up.
But you didn't walk towards the other person, but the other person walked towards you. The short-sighted Zhou Xun even gave up her seat next to Chen An to Gong Li.
You want me to die by sandwiching myself between Zhang Yimou and Gong Li.
You'd better not fall into my hands, otherwise you will be in trouble.
"I have to thank you two for sending your works when I was the chairman of the jury. Especially yours, Chen An. It is indeed a rare and excellent work. If I hadn't asked Ge You and I to work together, why did you leave me alone to shoot it?"
Listening to the other party's words, Chen An smiled awkwardly and said, "Sister Li, you are the chairman of the jury, so I can't drag you to act with me."
"You are really thoughtful." Gong Li said with a smile.
The meal hadn't even been served yet but Chen An already felt like leaving.
Brother, please say something! Brother, please say something!
But the other party was just like Chen An at the beginning, with no reaction at all.
No one was chatting during the whole dinner. Zhang Weiping felt that the visitor was not friendly but he did not say much.
Only Chen An and Gong Li were chatting casually.
Although he was talking to Chen An, Chen An felt like he was talking to the great director next to him.
It felt like the two were playing some weird paly, and Chen An, who was caught in the middle, suffered greatly from it.
After the meal, Gong Li left first. In fact, she only drank a little wine and didn't eat anything. She spent most of the time chatting with Chen An.
After chatting for a while, I just left.
Not long after the other party left, the banquet ended.
Before leaving, Senior Brother Zhang, who had been silent at the dinner, finally came up to Chen An and spoke quietly: "Thank you, Junior Brother."
"Instead of thanking me, brother, you should sometimes think about yourself. There will be no result if you drag it on." Chen An shook his head. His senior brother was an expert in making movies.
But some things are just difficult to sort out.
Zhang Yimou remained the same. He nodded silently, patted Chen An on the back, and left first.
When he was going back, Zhou Xun finally noticed the piercing gaze behind him. He turned around and found Chen An staring at him.
"Director, don't be angry. I didn't know it at the time. I thought she was the chairman of the jury, so I had to be polite." Zhou Xun also realized it a little later.
I didn’t understand it at first, but after noticing the atmosphere on the scene, I realized that I had done something wrong.
Chen An swallowed hard, "Forget it, you don't understand. If you try to cheat me again next time, you'd better not fall into my hands, or you'll suffer."
"I understand, Director. Can you tell me about Director Zhang? I'm quite curious." Even though she had escaped a disaster, she still had the mind to gossip.
Chen An slapped the other person on the forehead and gently pushed him away, "Shut up, you still have the mind to gossip, don't ask me about this, go ask him."
"I don't dare to do that."
"If you don't dare to ask him, then you dare to ask me, do you remember how you just tricked me? Get out of here and go back to your room to sleep."
After saying that, he flicked the other person's forehead with his finger, and she immediately covered her forehead with her hand in pain.
Chen An ignored her touching and pitiful look and walked straight into the hotel and went upstairs to his room.
Seeing that the other party was not fooled, she, who originally looked pitiful, curled her lips slightly and returned to her original appearance after the other party walked straight up the stairs.
I followed him up the stairs silently.
Chen An originally thought that Beijing was cold enough, but he didn't expect Berlin to be even colder.
I left the warm hotel early in the morning and came to this cold train station.
Chen An, Zhao Xiong and several staff members stood in the wind, shivering, freezing like grandchildren. "Ah, ah!" Chen An sneezed from the cold and wiped his nose with a piece of paper.
He stretched out his hands and blew on them, rubbing his hands which were a little red from the cold.
If I had known this earlier, I would have worn gloves, but unfortunately Chen An has never had this habit since he was a child.
"Director Chen, here comes Teacher Ge You!" Just as Chen An was rubbing his hands, the staff who were waiting nearby pointed excitedly at the crowd coming out.
Looking in the direction he pointed, the man wearing a thick cotton coat, a military cap and motorcycle gloves was none other than Uncle Ge.
He was wrapped tightly, dragging a suitcase and staring at the exit every two steps.
"Uncle Ge! Over here!" Chen An couldn't care less at this moment and just shouted.
Uncle Ge was still staggering, looking left and right. Fortunately, his wife beside him had already seen Chen An and the others, and dragged him to point in this direction.
Uncle Ge, who was dragged by his wife, followed the direction he was pointed to and saw Chen An and others waiting. He waved happily.
Walking towards this side.
"Xiao Chen, why don't you wear more clothes? You're so cold at such a young age." Uncle Ge, who walked up to him, still had the leisure to joke.
The wife next to him slapped her husband in annoyance, acting very unruly.
Chen An ignored the affectionate look on their faces and said, "Let's go, I almost froze to death here trying to pick you up."
"Young man, you think you are in good health, but you don't wear any clothes, hats or gloves. How can you not feel cold?"
"How dare you say that? If it weren't for picking you up, I would still be sleeping in the hotel."
"How can you sleep all day at such a young age? You still need to get out and move around."
Uncle Ge kept talking one thing after another, and Chen An couldn't argue with him, so he ignored him and got into the car.
The car is much better than this. At least there is no cold wind blowing towards you and getting into your clothes.
Uncle Ge, who got on the car behind, first brought in the things and his wife, and then got in the car and sat next to Chen An.
"Have you seen your Senior Brother Zhang? You've been here for several days."
"Of course I haven't seen him before. He invited me to dinner at the same hotel and even invited Sister Li to come over."
"Then you're pretty unlucky. It's a good thing I didn't come. Sometimes not taking a plane isn't all bad. It can be a good thing."
Listening to Chen An's description, he took off his hat to reveal his shiny bald head, put it on his legs in front of him, and laughed.
He could imagine the scene without having to go there, it was simply chilling.
Looking at his gloating expression, Chen An felt that he had worried about him for nothing.
By the time he returned to the hotel, Chen An was too cold to sleep, and his idea of taking a nap was shattered.
After helping Uncle Ge check into the hotel that had been booked, Chen An stayed in the hotel and refused to come out.
After being so cold, he didn't want to go anywhere and just wanted to stay in the warm hotel.
Uncle Ge arrived on time and met with Zhang Yimou's crew in the evening.
The next day was February 9th.
Invited by Gong Li, Chen An and Zhang Yimou were both invited to attend the opening ceremony.
The opening movie, an English-language film made in Germany, was magical.
It was arranged to be the opening film of the 50th Berlin Film Festival, "The Million Dollar Hotel".
Wearing newly bought suits from Hollywood, Chen An and Zhang Yimou attended the premiere together.
Didn't accept any interviews, just showed up for a photo.
Director Wim Wenders was also on the scene to thank the two. Although they are also winners of the Palme d'Or and the Golden Lion, one is a double winner of the Golden Bear and the Golden Lion, and the other is the Cannes Best Director and a rising star in Hollywood!
No matter what, being able to come and support is helpful.
