China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 101 My dad wants to meet you (please subscribe!)

The Magic City International Film Festival is the only Class A film festival in China.

However, in the past few years, it had a poor international reputation because it was too partial to its own people.

However, a big change has been made this year. Not only has the world-renowned French director Luc Besson been invited to serve as the chairman of the jury, but three of the other nine members have also won Oscars.

This film festival has transformed into a somewhat international one.

However, because of this, the number of Chinese films shortlisted for this film festival has dropped by more than half compared to previous years.

Even Chen Dong's "Xiu Chun Dao" was also deleted.

He didn't know whether Feng Xiaogang, who was the vice chairman of the jury, had any 'contribution', but his own new film "The Banquet" received multiple nominations.

……

Lu Chuan previously filmed "Kekexili", which won many awards at home and abroad.

Now, his new movie script has also come out, that is, "Nanjing!" Nanjing! ”, Chen Dong heard that China Film Group is a big investor...ah, bah, bah, bah, it's a big investor.

……

The day after the graduation dinner, Chen Dong took Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, and some staff members on a plane to Europe.

This incident also made the news when Zhao Zhetian bluntly stated on a talk show that when she was in college, a male classmate pursued her for four years.

But she didn't agree.

The reason why this matter is worth mentioning is that Zhao Zhetian can make it to the front pages of major websites.

It's because this male classmate is also not an ordinary person, and he is now also a top-notch student in the circle.

That's right, it's Huang Xiaoming who has just become popular after starring in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" with Liu Yifei.

"Sister Zhao, why are you saying everything to others? I'm afraid Brother Xiaoming is already dead in the toilet by now."

Over the past six months or so of dating, Miss Liu and Chen Dong have learned a lot of vocabulary that is not yet popular.

Such as social death.

Yang Mi echoed: "Although it is true, saying it on the show hurts Brother Xiaoming's face somewhat."

She added in her mind: From now on, she should stay away from this senior named Zhao!
  Tang Yan just nodded without expressing her attitude.

After the group arrived in France, someone from the film crew came to pick them up.

Fortunately for Yang Mi, this girl is a social cow. Although her English is very lame, she dares to say hello to Leonardo and others.

Tang Yan couldn't do it. Chen Dong found that this girl was easily confused when she was nervous and stuttered when she was confused. Fortunately, she could still find a sense of security around Liu Yifei, which made the relationship between the two of them go well.

Because Yang Mi came here on leave, Chen Dong also knew that the crew of "Eight Formations of Gods and Ghosts" gave her a total of seven days of leave. It was already the third day, and the time was very tight. Therefore, even if they had just arrived on the crew, they were sleepy. The horses...ahem, the boat and the carriage are tiring, but they can't afford to waste a second.

"These are the roles and lines of the two of you. Work hard tonight and get familiar with it. We'll be filming tomorrow morning."

"Okay, thank you, Director Chen. Don't worry, we will burn the midnight oil tonight and we will definitely not embarrass you tomorrow."

After Yang Mi finished speaking, Tang Yan immediately echoed: "Me too!"

"Then I look forward to your performance tomorrow." Chen Dong smiled and nodded, and added: "But I have to say one more thing, that is, don't stay up too late and go to bed early. For actors, state is also very important."

After speaking, Chen Dong went to communicate with Director Nolan again.

Early the next morning, Chen Dong sat in the director's chair, looked at the two women who had put on makeup, picked up the director's exclusive loudspeaker and shouted to the entire crew: "All departments are ready, 3, 2, 1, action."

Through the monitor in front of the director, Chen Dong could clearly see the acting skills of the two women, a little, but not much.

However, their roles are just supporting roles and do not require much acting skills, so as long as they do not act out or steal the show, Chen Dong will not embarrass them too much.

It only took one day to shoot, and their scenes were completed.

The next day I got on a plane back home.

In the blink of an eye, July is almost gone.

The filming progress of "Inception" has also come to an end.

On this day, due to some reasons, the crew had a half-day off.

Everyone took a break from their busy schedule and held a barbecue party.

Actresses such as Liu Yifei and Marion took over the barbecue duties. Instead, Chen Dong, Nolan, Leon and other men sat aside and waited to be fed.

"Chen, I heard that you wrote a new movie script?" Chen Dong didn't need to spend too much time helping Liu Yifei train her acting skills recently. He had more time, so he decided to write the American version of "Hachi" Write the script.

But the crew has no secrets. Nolan discovered this when he came to his room yesterday.

So Leon and others also heard about it.

"Adapted from a movie story written by R."

"Oh? What's it called?"

"The Story of Hachiko, Leon, have you read it?"

"A movie about dogs?"

"Yes."

"The name seems familiar, but I guess I haven't seen it before... What is it about?"

Chen Dong told the outline of the story, and before he knew it, several girls who were having a barbecue gathered around him.

"Oh! It's a very touching story."

"Chen, are you going to film it?"

"Yes, that will probably be my next movie."

Chen Dong paused and said with some distress: "But the actor Hachiko is not easy to find."

The guys actively gave some suggestions.

That night, Leonardo, Joseph, Tom Harley, Cillian Murphy... knocked on the door one after another and walked into Chen Dong's room. They all thought that they would quietly read the script, but in the end they all thought about it together. went.

Later, Chen Dong's room was full of people, so he simply opened the door. After that, even Marion and other actresses came after hearing the news.

"Chen, I think your script can be filmed in Hollywood."

This is what Leon said to Chen Dong very seriously after reading the script.

And his calculations were very loud. Not only did he want to invest in this movie, but the leading actor also wanted to give it a try himself.

However, Chen Dong knew that after the filming of this movie was completed, Leonardo would not have a schedule until March next year, so Chen Dong only thought about his proposal for two seconds before mentally rejecting it.

Because the American version of "Hachi" was so classic, Chen Dong did not make drastic changes to it, so Leonardo felt that it was appropriate to film the film in the United States.

Chen Dong did seriously consider this suggestion.

After struggling for several days, he finally decided to make it into a domestic movie instead of a Hollywood movie.

It is true that the latter has a higher quality now, just like the movie directed by Li Yu, but in the long run, this movie is destined to become a classic and will be branded as Hollywood. This is not what Chen Dong wants to see. of.

However, if it is to be made into a domestic film, the script Chen Dong has written so far must be set in Xiangjiang. Otherwise, even if the script can pass the review, it will not make sense logically.

Seeing that the completion of "Inception" was getting closer and closer, on this day, Liu Yifei suddenly walked into Chen Dong's room with a lot of thoughts. She even forgot to knock on the door. After entering the room, she said directly: "Dongzi, my father wants to see you." meet you."

"what?"

"My dad wants to meet you."

"Uncle knows about us?"

"Hey, that's a stupid question of yours."

Liu Yifei took two steps forward, stretched out her hands and rubbed Chen Dong's face.

The young lady's hands were very cold, and Chen Dong quickly woke up from his dazed state.

Then he grabbed the opponent's cold hand, gently pulled the beauty into his arms, and started the three-question mode.

"Why does your father suddenly want to see me?"

"Uncle, what is his hobby?"

"Sissi, what do you think I should buy for my uncle?"

Liu Yifei rarely sees her boyfriend looking so nervous.

He smiled, turned his face, and hinted to someone to kiss him. After Chen Dong did so, he heard the young lady in his arms explain to him:
  "My dad is a..."
