Chapter 77 Double Happiness

During the filming of "Blossom", Yuan Yuan stayed with the crew throughout the whole process, discussing with Hua Tai'an at any time to revise the script.

"Blossom" tells the story of the protagonist who met a drama writer who was sent to the bullpen when he was a teenager, and was influenced by him to fall in love with drama creation.He wholeheartedly wanted to realize his drama dream. After experiencing setbacks such as failure in recruitment and failure in the college entrance examination, he became a substitute teacher. , was protested and boycotted by the parents of the students, etc. Later, because of a serious illness, his wife stopped him from continuing to create.At the end of the story, his son invited him to watch the performance. It turned out that his son completed his unfinished script, rehearsed it, and gave it to him as a gift.

Hua Tai'an has strict requirements on the script, and has strict requirements on every line. Sometimes, in order to find the most suitable expression with Yuan Yuan, the old and the young get together to drink a little wine to ponder the script.Gu Yuren was also a member of this small group at the beginning, but Hua Taian felt that he liked to gag too much, Yuan Yuan thought that he took the opportunity to drink and unanimously expelled him from the discussion group.Gu Yuren felt overwhelmed, so every time Yuan Yuan had to convey the discussion process and results to him.Drinking is the easiest way to connect with each other. Before the movie was finished, Hua Tai'an and Yuan Yuan had already become close friends.

This literary film was filmed from February to the end of June, trying to match the season of each scene with the setting of the script. Such a long shooting time is rare in literary films.Yuan Yuan and Gu Yuren also want to create high-quality products, so they don't care how much money they spend.Although there is no big scene, Gu Yuren still starred in it for free. This literary film still cost 2000 million yuan in the end, not including the cost of publicity and distribution. It was all out of the pockets of Yuan Yuan and Gu Yuren. Almost all the money earned from "Mountain and Sea" was spent on this movie.

Gu Yuren smiled and said: "Brother, you are really generous. This is going to break the bank to make a movie. Don't cry when you lose money."

Yuan Yuan squinted at him: "Didn't someone say they wanted to raise me? What am I afraid of? Anyway, I have food and a place to live."

Gu Yuren rubbed his head: "It's okay, I will support you forever."

Yuan Yuan smiled: "That depends on whether you have lost all the money you invested."

The movies Gu Yuren invested in are not limited to those written by Yuan Yuan, there are also many low-cost movies. It was very refreshing.He said that without producers and investors like him in this world, it would be impossible to make many films, and there would be many less classic films in the history of film.

Yuan Yuan can understand this kind of thinking very well. If he didn't have a dream, he would not invest so much in the film "Blossom", because the possibility of recovering the cost of this film is very low. Compared with "Inheritance", This movie has a weaker storyline and stronger artistry, and its reputation will not be bad, but there will only be more boring audiences.The only box office competitor is Gu Yuren who has returned from injury.

After filming the movie, it was the hottest time of the year. Gu Yuren was on summer vacation. The two of them together took their mother to travel abroad. The summer in Western Europe is very cool, with a maximum temperature of 37 degrees. Compared with domestic [-] octaves is simply too cool, just to escape the heat.

So Yuan Ma went to meet the world with her sons.In fact, Yuan Yuan had never gone abroad. Although Gu Yuren traveled to many places, in fact, they were all for work, and he rarely went abroad. It was the first time that he went out for fun like this.

Gu Yuren and Yuan Yuan got together and drew up a travel itinerary map.Gu Yuren's English in the initial assault came in handy now, Yuan Yuan could read it, and Gu Yuren could say that they didn't even find a guide, so they planned to fumble all the way there by themselves.Naturally, there were a lot of jokes along the way, and I had a lot of fun in the end. It was really a new life experience.

Gu Yuren said: "Brother, when you go back, you can write "Ou囧"."

Yuan Yuan smiled: "Haha, I'll ask Director Xu later if he wants to cooperate with me in writing the script."

They started from Germany, then went to the Netherlands, Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Portugal, and the last stop was Italy. The time was almost the end of August, just in time to attend the Venice Film Festival. As soon as the post-production of "Blossom" was completed, it was immediately sent to participate in the film festival, and it was also shortlisted for the main competition unit of this film festival, and was selected as the closing film. This is also the reason why they arranged Italy for the last stop, by the way Go to a film festival.

They all know very well that it is unlikely that this movie will earn back the box office, and they can only hope to win the award.They met with the film crew who came to participate in the film festival. This time Yuan Yuan and Gu Yuren walked the red carpet together, and the two of them hooked up shoulder to shoulder in front of the reporter's camera.

The domestic media focused on them. This was Gu Yuren's first comeback after his injury, and the domestic media paid great attention to them.Gu Yuren's mental state is very full, he is still so tall and handsome, and there is no trace of injury at all. Compared with last year's disability rumors, it is really inexplicable irony.So this review of Yu Ren once again slaughtered the screen, and the screen was full of fans' saliva.

Previously, when Hua Tai'an was interviewed by domestic media, he expressed that he was very optimistic about "Blossom" winning the screenwriting award at the film festival.Therefore, domestic mainstream media officially paid attention to Yuan Yuan, and specially made a special report on the films he created over the years, and pointed out that as long as there is Yuan Yuan's script, you can basically see Gu Yuren, not as a producer, but as a producer. He participated in the film by himself, and the report used the phrase "Jiao Buli Meng, Meng Buli Jiao" to describe his relationship with Gu Yuren, the new golden partner in the film industry.

Rotten fans don't think so. They agree that this is a husband and wife file in the film industry, and husbands sing and husbands follow suit.Eye-catching fans discovered that at the Venice Film Festival, the gowns on the red carpet were all from the same brand, and no one would believe that there was no sponsorship.Someone joked, maybe their underwear brand is the same.Some people even said that maybe other people's underwear is mixed.

Afterwards, Gu Yuren said with a smile: "These people are really roundworms in our stomachs, they even know that we are wearing underwear!"

Yuan Yuan rolled his eyes unceremoniously: "Nonsense, you wore mine, but I didn't wear yours, so how could it be considered a fake?"

Let’s go back to the film festival. As one of the most influential film festivals in the world, Venice’s trophies are still very important. If you can win an award at the European International Film Festival, it will definitely be the greatest affirmation and the best honor .

It was Yuan Yuan's first time abroad to participate in the grand prize, but he didn't have much confidence in winning the prize. The kind of good luck that hits one hit is often very rare.What's more, the purpose of making this movie is not to win an award, but to fulfill a long-cherished wish.

The awarding process of the International Film Festival is very simple. The shortlist is determined long ago. The host announces the list of winners directly on stage, and the winners go to the stage to receive the award. Even the acceptance speech is omitted, which just avoids the embarrassment of language barrier.The host spoke Italian, and Yuan Yuan could understand a little bit of English, but Italian was completely deaf, so when the lottery winner offered the Best Screenplay Award, he hadn't realized it yet, and the Gu next to him Yu Ren gave him a push: "You have won the prize!"

The camera focused on Yuan Yuan. He was looking around at others at the time. When he found out that it was him, he was stunned for a moment, and then he showed a surprised smile and stood up to accept the award.When he received the trophy, he still had an unreal feeling. He bowed deeply to the audience, and then stepped down.Gu Yuren opened his arms and gave him a hug: "Congratulations, brother!"

Yuan Yuan couldn't say a word, his eyes were a little moist, the happiness came so suddenly, when you were not careful, it hit you.Yuan Yuan said in his heart: "Dad, have you seen it? I did it."

However, an even bigger surprise is still waiting for them. Gu Yuren won the best actor award, which is a double blessing for them.

This trip to Venice, just like this beautiful season, is full of the sweetness of harvest.If someone asks Gu Yuren and Yuan Yuan, which is the most beautiful city abroad, it must be Venice, because this is the place where they shared their reputation.

The results of the Venice Film Festival spread to China immediately, and fans of Gu Yuren and Yuan Yuan sang and danced like a festival.

Zhou Fengming called to congratulate: "Congratulations brother and eldest brother, you two are husband and wife, now you have completed your merits and virtues, remember to bring me a gift back!"

Gu Yuren couldn't suppress the smile on the corner of his mouth: "You will take the opportunity to blackmail and bring you a pizza back home, a local specialty."

Zhou Fengming grinned: "Brother, you are too stingy, at least give me a trophy, your family put two at once, too many will not look good, just give me one."

Gu Yuren scolded: "Go away, it's a beautiful idea. I just want everything in the house to be in pairs, and you want to even one, there is no way!"

Zhou Fengming said: "Anyway, you will hold trophies in the future. Why do you care about a trophy?"

Gu Yuren said: "Can this have the same meaning?" This is the first time he won an award with Yuan Yuan, the commemoration is of great significance, how could it be given away.

"Okay, I understand. Then bring something else, don't be pizza, I used to eat this until I threw up." Zhou Fengming said.

Gu Yuren said: "Do you want to eat yet? You are not allowed to bring meat on the plane. Tomorrow, I will go out with your elder brother and buy you a commemorative key chain on the side of the road. You can often use this remember us coming."

"Why are you getting more and more stingy! This can be given away!" Zhou Fengming protested.

Gu Yuren said: "No? No, forget it. Anyway, our luggage is already overweight, and I don't want to take it yet."

Zhou Fengming quickly said: "Yes, yes, I want to give anything." Speaking of it, Gu Yuren really never gave Zhou Fengming any gifts, and what he gave had a commemorative meaning.

The two sons won the awards, of course Mama Yuan was the happiest. She had a good time out this time, and was able to return with two big trophies in the end. It was a rewarding experience.When going out for a stroll, the old man is holding a son in one arm, not to mention how proud he is.
