China Entertainment started from cutting off the Hu in 1995

On the same day, Wu Yuchen entrusted the staff to help him make a new poster, and he wanted to print the words he said before on the poster. Anyway, I have already used it, so I might as well use it till the end.

Generally speaking, the second day of a film festival is definitely not as crowded as the previous day. Wu Yuchen thought that the average attendance rate on the next day would be 70%, but he did not expect that the morning screening of The Two of Us would have 60% on the second day. , and by the afternoon it was completely full.

The bursting of the economic bubble in 1991 had an all-round impact on the entire neon industry. The whole society has stopped from the previous impetuousness and fast pace. While losing money and future, everyone began to reflect and pay more attention to the present and the things around them.

The warm and sincere emotions conveyed by Both of Us are exactly what many neon people are craving right now. At the same time, The Two of Us also reflects an issue that Neon attaches great importance to at present, that is, empty nesters.

Neon is the country with the highest proportion of empty-nest elderly people in the world, and it is also the country with the most severe symptoms of lonely death. The old lady in The Two of Us had a girl who cared about her before she died, but many empty-nesters in Neon died silently and alone without anyone caring about her!

Therefore, beyond Wu Yuchen's expectations, but also reasonable, the reputation of The Two of Us exploded from person to person!

This situation naturally attracted the attention of the organizers of the film festival. Not only did they add staff to the Two of Us exhibition hall to maintain order, but local media also came to conduct interviews on the third day.

A few days later, Studio Ghibli was in Koganei City, a suburb of Tokyo.

Hayao Miyazaki, who has gray hair and a big beard, rubbed his sore right hand. It has been two years since he started writing Princess Mononoke in 1994. His right hand also suffered from hand disease and it started to hurt again in the past few days. I got up and had to stop and rest for a while.

He picked up the latest copy of the Asahi Shimbun and after flipping through it for a while, he saw a report about the Tokyo Film Festival.

...

At the Tokyo Film Festival that was being held recently, a movie from China caused a sensation. The audience was all moved after watching the movie. We were fortunate to interview the director Mr. Wu Yuchen.

Wu Sang, how do you evaluate your movie?

One scene, two people, four seasons, a Chinese expression of true love.

Why is it said to be a Chinese expression?

What belongs to the nation belongs to the world, but how is the nation connected with the world? I think the most ordinary human nature may be the most important. Being able to touch the hearts of yourself and the audience is the key.

…”

What belongs to the nation is what belongs to the world...the most common human nature...

Hayao Miyazaki murmured something, which was very consistent with some of his ideas, and he couldn't help but think on a whim that he might take advantage of these two days' rest to watch this movie.

The next day, Hayao Miyazaki drove to Roppongi and stood in front of the exhibition hall of The Two of Us, staring at a poster in a daze:

Life is like a train bound for the grave. There will be many stops on the way. It is difficult for someone to accompany you from beginning to end. When the person accompanying you gets off the train, you should be grateful even if you are reluctant to leave, and then wave goodbye.

After seeing this passage, Hayao Miyazaki felt deeply touched. His thoughts were racing in his mind. He stood in front of the poster for a long time, and did not turn around and walk into the theater until the movie was about to start.

In the theater, when the movie came to an end, many people sobbed quietly. Neon people are very particular about this. Even if they cry, they will restrain themselves so as not to disturb others.

Hayao Miyazaki is a person who has experienced great storms. Although he was quite touched by the sincere relationship in the movie, he would not cry to the point of tears.

But at this moment, he was inspired again and muttered silently:

An ordinary and lovely girl, and a 'bad mother-in-law' who is fierce and shrewd on the outside but soft on the inside?

At this moment, Hayao Miyazaki felt that a desire to create was about to burst out in his mind. He immediately took out a notebook and pen from his arms and recorded all the bits and pieces of his thoughts. This was something he had developed over the years. An old habit.

After Hayao Miyazaki stopped writing and put away his notepad, he looked up and found that there was already a long queue in the theater, and the audience wanted to shake hands with the director and the heroine.

Hayao Miyazaki also developed a strong interest in the director and walked to the end of the queue.

Mr. Director, this is really an excellent movie. This beautiful emotion from stranger to togetherness really moved me! I will bring my mother and grandmother to watch this movie again!

This was a boy, and after finishing speaking, he bowed to Wu Yuchen. What the girl behind her said is even more interesting:

When I first watched it, the soul was in the girl, and then gradually transferred to the old woman. I am now in my twenties, and I hope to watch this movie with my granddaughter in the future.

Of course, after finishing speaking, girls must bow, which is the traditional culture of childhood.

After the girl left, Wu Yuchen saw that only an old man with gray hair and a mask was left, so he took the initiative to smile and extend his hand to her.

The other party first took off his mask, then stretched out his hand to shake Wu Yuchen's, and said with a smile:

Mr. Director, thank you very much for letting me watch such an excellent movie. It touched me very much!

Wu Yuchen looked familiar to the other person, but before he could react, he heard the translator beside him cover his mouth and exclaim. He bowed to the other person with a surprised expression on his face, and then said to Wu Yuchen:

This is the respected director Hayao Miyazaki!

When Wu Yuchen heard the translation, he realized that no wonder it looked familiar just now. Isn't this Hayao Miyazaki, who is called the God of Animation by Neon people, right in front of him?

Director Miyazaki, thank you for your support of the movie. I also like your work very much. I am really happy to see you here!

Now that he has met many famous people since his rebirth, he is no longer excited and has gradually gotten used to it.

Hayao Miyazaki laughed, and then said: I have gained a lot from coming here today. Your movie has given me new inspiration and inspiration. If it comes out in the future, I will definitely invite you to the premiere. !”

Wu Yuchen was stunned for a moment. Although he didn't quite understand what inspiration he gave to Hayao Miyazaki, he still smiled generously and said: Thank you for the invitation, it is my honor!

After Hayao Miyazaki left, the translator next to Wu Yuchen was still very excited and excited, and kept talking about Si Guoyi to Wu Yuchen, which shows the old man's status in the hearts of Neon people.

The news about Hayao Miyazaki's coming to watch The Two of Us and his conversation with Justin Wu quickly spread, adding to the popularity of the movie currently being screened. Over the next few days, there was an endless stream of people watching The Two of Us, and even the morning show was full of people.

Unsurprisingly, Neon's local film producers have already come to negotiate the film rights, but naturally Wu Yuchen pushed them to wait until after the awards ceremony.

Zhou Xun was very happy these days. She came to a bustling international city like Tokyo, and it happened to be in a downtown area like Roppongi. She had a translator take her around.

Of course, what made her even happier was the treatment she received here. Before, she was just a young actress in China. She went to the cinema to watch the previously released movies, and the audience in the cinema ignored her.

But this time she followed The Two of Us to Neon, and she was treated like an international star, even much better than the heroines in her previous crew. It was the first time that she felt that her role was treated by so many people. I love that I receive so much respect for my performance. This is a sense of achievement that comes from the heart and is recognized!

The day before the closing ceremony of the film festival, Zhou Xun received a piece of news that made her even more excited:

Brother Xun, you have been nominated for Best Actress~

Zhou Xun's eyes widened when he heard this, and then he ran up to Wu Yuchen and took his hand:

Really?

Why did I lie to you? If you don't believe me, ask Matsumoto the translator.

Zhou Xun screamed, and then jumped up, but did not let go of Wu Yuchen's hand, jumping up and down so that Wu Yuchen's arms swayed like waves.

Brother Xun, if you don't let go, my arm will break!

Zhou Xun let go of her hand with a smile. She was now very familiar with Wu Yuchen and knew that he would not care. But then Zhou Xun immediately asked: What about Grandma Jin?

Wu Yuchen nodded her head: Yes, I can still remember Grandma Jin. She has also entered, and you both have been nominated!

Zhou Xun breathed a sigh of relief this time. She felt that Grandma Jin acted so well. If she got in but Grandma didn't get in, she would be a little embarrassed to face Grandma Jin.

Then she rolled her eyes and asked again: Director Wu, what about you?

Wu Yuchen chuckled: If you can get in, of course I can too!

…

The next day, at the closing ceremony red carpet, when Wu Yuchen and Zhou Xun walked onto the red carpet, the cheers on both sides were obviously louder than those of the crew in front.

You and me!

Wu Sang! Zhou Jiang! Come on!

You will definitely win the grand prize!

Come on, Wu Yuchen could understand some of them, but he couldn't understand some of them, but he still waved to the fans with Zhou Xun.

This time The Two of Us was shortlisted for quite a few awards. In addition to Zhou Xun and Mrs. Jin Yaqin both being shortlisted for Best Actress, he was also shortlisted for Best Director, and the film was also shortlisted for the Film Festival Grand Prix, that is The best film at this film festival is called the Golden Kirin or Sakura Award.

These three nominations are all major prizes in the main competition section, and Wu Yuchen feels very hopeful to win at least one, because among the five judges this time, there is another Chinese judge, Tian Zhuangzhuang from Beijing Film Academy.

This is my senior brother, no matter what, I will win a big prize for him!

The performance and a series of speeches after entering the venue are all established procedures. Once this sequence is completed, the official awards ceremony will begin.

The first award was given to the youth film section, with three awards, the Youth Film Sakura Gold Award, Silver Award and Bronze Award. The silver award was won by Wanwan's film Spring Blossom Monroe.

Then came some other unit awards, and when these were about the same, they also started to enter the main competition unit.

The first is a not very important best artistic contribution, which is a double yolk, a neon movie Liang Kuan and an Iranian movie.

Then there was the Best Screenplay Award, which went to Czech’s “Give Me a Dad.”

Wu Yuchen looked at this movie with a slightly solemn face. This movie is also a hit this year. In his previous life, he not only won the Golden Kirin Award at the Tokyo Film Festival, but also won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film next year.

Then it was the turn of the Best Actress that made Zhou Xun extremely nervous. As her scene was played on the screen, Zhou Xun couldn't help but nervously squeeze Wu Yuchen's hand, and completely lost his previous chirping appearance.

In addition to her and Mrs. Jin Yaqin, there are also two heroines from the Norwegian film Lonely Sunday and a Polish film heroine.

The award guest was Takeshi Kitano, a famous neon actor. He was a comedian and made some jokes when he was on stage, but even if Neon's jokes were translated, he didn't quite understand them.

Kitano soon tore open the envelope, pulled out a piece of paper, and read aloud:

The best actress is... You and me!

Wu Yuchen and Zhou Xun both looked happy when they heard the name of the movie popping out of Takeshi Kitano's mouth, but two people were selected for The Two of Us and he hadn't said who it was yet!

Kitano Takeshi paused before saying: Jin Yaqin!

Wu Yuchen's mood didn't change much. Anyway, the award was given to both of them for their films. In the previous life, it was the old lady who won the award. However, he knew that Zhou Xun must be a little disappointed. After all, who wouldn't want to win the award after being shortlisted?

Wu Yuchen patted Zhou Xun to comfort him, but Zhou Xun smiled and shook his head to show that he was fine.

But at this moment, Kitano Takeshi did not put down the note in his hand. After a pause, he continued to read aloud with a smile on his face: ...and Zhou Xun!

As his words fell, an image appeared on the big screen. It was the heartwarming scene of Zhou Xun holding Jin Yaqin in his arms!

Zhou Xun still didn't react, and was a little confused when he read her name again, but Wu Yuchen immediately understood that it was a double yolk!

He immediately shouted happily to Zhou Xun: Brother Xun, you also won an award. You and Grandma Jin won the Best Actress together!

After hearing this, Zhou Xun understood what happened, screamed excitedly, and then hugged Wu Yuchen.

At this time, everyone in the audience realized that Takeshi Kitano was deliberately teasing everyone. Neon artists who were familiar with him knew that this guy had such a naughty character, and the entire audience applauded.

Wu Yu patted Zhou Xun who was still holding him and said, If you don't go up, I won't let you go.

Only then did Zhou Xun let go of his hand. Wu Yuchen found that Zhou Xun was already crying. He didn't say anything and pulled Zhou Xun up. Old Mrs. Jin Yaqin didn't come, so naturally he had to accept the award on her behalf.
