Chapter 514 Time Interview
In a quiet bedroom in Beijing, Liu Yifei listened to Li Chen's unique acceptance speech over the phone.
Her heart is full of tenderness, and her pretty face combines the gentleness of a woman and the radiance of motherhood.
With eyes slightly moist, Liu Yifei tilted her head back, placed one hand on her abdomen and muttered to herself.
"Son, don't be as annoying as your father."
The baby in the womb seemed to understand what the mother said and kicked twice.
Liu Yifei cried out, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "You little bastard, I just said something to your dad and you're upset."
Yang Siwei was deeply moved when he heard his boss's acceptance speech at the scene.
Which woman can stand this? The acceptance speech became a declaration of love.
Just by looking at the fact that the call was hung up silently, you can tell how much damage the boss's acceptance speech had done to Yifei.
Not to mention Yifei is only 23 years old.
Xue Xiaolu also smiled and said in the audience: "No wonder Li Chen is unmatched as a screenwriter. Even the lines in the movie are not so infectious with just these few words."
"The pregnant woman might be so moved that she will suffer from insomnia," Zhou Xun said with a smile.
Huang Xiaoming also said: "Compared with Director Li's confession, I realized that my love declaration is really not worthy of being on the stage."
Zhou Xun immediately joked: "Don't underestimate yourself, Xiaoming. Your phrase "My woman is a princess" is full of domineering CEO style!"
"Okay, stop it, Brother Xun, let's not talk about this anymore, okay?"
Everyone lowered their heads to hide their smiles.
Hui Yinghong, Wang Xueqi, Chen Daoming and others seemed to become a dozen years younger when listening to the young people's jokes.
The Grand Jury Prize and the Golden Bear were unsurprisingly given to "The Turin Horse" and "The Farewell"!
After the award ceremony, when the director of "The Turin Horse" was interviewed, he didn't even take the Silver Bear, and he was obviously unhappy with the Berlin Film Festival jury's special treatment of "The Farewell".
"Li, congratulations on taking away four Silver Bears at once." Dieter, chairman of the Berlin Film Festival, said with a smile.
He was very satisfied with the result this time.
It not only did not abandon the consistent style of the Berlin Film Festival, but also gave an explanation for Li Chen's participation in the Berlin Film Festival.
It is not common at the Berlin Film Festival for two films to take home four Silver Bears.
Marcol from Venice laughed and said, "In my opinion, Li Chen deserves the Golden Bear. Don't you think so, Dieter?"
Dieter looked at Li Chen awkwardly and smiled. Li Chen had already gotten the advantage, so he naturally would not let Dieter lose face.
"Old Ma, although I feel a little regretful, I am already very happy to have won four Silver Bears."
Dieter laughed and said, "Lee, you are so young, it is only a matter of time before you win the Golden Bear. I hope to see you in Berlin next year."
Li Chen nodded and smiled: "I will come if I have the chance."
After entertaining several people and media interviews, Li Chen called Miss Liu back.
"I just told my son not to imitate you in the future!"
"What are you not allowed to learn from me?" Li Chen was completely confused.
"Don't learn from me. You always make me cry! But I have recorded your acceptance speech just now. If you treat us badly in the future, I will play it for you every day."
Li Chen laughed out loud at Liu Yifei's coquettish voice.
"You can have many sons, but you can only have one wife! How can I bear to treat you badly? You are my heart, you are my liver, and I am not a heartless person!"
"Bah! You just know how to say sweet words to coax me. Come back soon, I miss you." Miss Liu's voice became smaller and smaller, and it was obvious that something was different today.
"I miss you as well."
On the other side, Wang Xueqi was also answering a call from Fan Qiaoqiao.
The fact that he hasn't slept yet shows that the boss Fan Qiaoqiao pays special attention to Wang Xueqi.
"Teacher Wang, congratulations, I'm so happy!"
"If Brother Chen had chosen me to play the leading female role, maybe I could have received the award with you in Berlin!"
Fan Qiaoqiao's excited voice came from the phone.
Finally, she has a capable figure under her.
Berlin Film Award winner: Wang Xueqi. Wang Xueqi did not respond. No one can say anything about Li Chen choosing Li Qiaoqiao instead of Fan Qiaoqiao.
"Thank you. I am also a mortal after all. Although I don't care, I still feel a little touched when I stand on the stage and receive the silver bear."
"Teacher Wang, this is totally normal. As a filmmaker, who wouldn't want to stand on the podium of one of the three major European film awards?"
"Even in our country, isn't it striving for an Oscar every year?" Fan Qiaoqiao saw it very clearly.
News about the Berlin Film Festival has already exploded on Weibo in China.
The two crews of Li Chen and Xue Xiaolu captured four silver bears at one time.
The news that Wang Xueqi and Kara Hui were crowned in Berlin exploded in the circle early in the morning like a high-explosive TNT.
In the eight years since Li Chen debuted, he has participated in three major European competitions, and only once did he fail to win anything in Berlin.
It was Liu Dehua’s one-man show “Buried Alive”!
The other few times we returned with a full load and great victory.
In particular, Li Chen's acceptance speech won him a lot of favor from passers-by fans.
"Leo has the courage to take on the responsibility of being a husband and a father in front of the world's media in Berlin. He is very courageous!"
"Although Sister Fairy is not with Guo'er, at least she has Xiao Lizi, Yin Zhiping, who is not bad!"
"More than good! If Yin Zhiping were alive today, he would be as big a boss as Leo. The leader of Quanzhen Sect is equivalent to the leader of the martial arts world!"
"Let's wait and see. Little Leo's true love confession needs time to be verified. Didn't Yao Chen and Ling Xiaosu also escape the seven-year itch?"
Sina Entertainment News
“Both The Invisible Guest and The Time Traveler captured the first prize in Berlin.”
"Both plays won four Silver Bears for Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay."
"Mainland actor Wang Xueqi and Hong Kong actress Kara Hui were crowned the best actor and best actress in Berlin."
"At 3 a.m. today, good news came from Berlin about the Chinese films The Invisible Guest and The Time Traveler."
"Two Chinese films won four awards at the 61st Berlin Film Festival."
"Li Chen became the first Chinese director after Zhang Yimou to win awards at the three major European film festivals."
The crew of "The Flowers of War" all knew the news about the Berlin Film Festival early in the morning.
"Now Director Li and Director Zhang are tied in the number of awards. Director Li is just one Golden Bear away, while Director Zhang is just one Golden Palm away."
"Who says it's not true? With Director Zhang and Director Li, Rongchen Pictures is like a cheat. No other film and television company in the world can match this."
Everyone in the crew was talking about it, and as a newcomer, Nini was happy.
I have already signed with Zhang Yimou Studio, and this starting point is much higher than that of the students from the three major film and television schools.
Li Chen and others left the Film Palace and entertained reporters and enthusiastic fans. It was already very late when they returned.
Yang Siwei was busier until later, and both of his plays won awards.
The film producers directly surrounded Yang Siwei.
It was almost one o'clock in the morning Berlin time when Yang Siwei returned to the hotel.
The next morning, Yang Siwei received a call from his subordinates.
"Time magazine wants to do an exclusive interview with you, boss. The call has already been made to the company." Yang Siwei said with a smile.
Li Chen also laughed: "What are you laughing at?"
"Boss, Feng Xiaogang didn't accept an interview with CNN, why don't we..."
Li Chen knew what Yang Siwei meant before she even said it.
Li Chen has been on the cover of Time magazine once, when he won the Palme d'Or for the first time.
"You make an appointment with them and the location will be at the company."
"Okay, boss."
