billion box office tycoon

The final selection site of the [-]rd "Youth·Time" Micro Film Contest was held in a five-star international hotel in Shanghai. Since it was hosted by iku, the largest portal website in China, the site layout was full of iku trademark, as well as the figure of its largest investor, Fengteng Films.

Although the advertisements are overwhelming, there is no shortage of luxurious scenes at the scene. The security personnel in black are all standing at the entrance of the hotel. Beautiful.

A crowd of media had long been guarding the hotel entrance, blazing short shots at the red carpet, and the spotlights one after another would blind people's eyes in broad daylight.

"Why is the scene so big?" Ye Weilin didn't know how big the scene was until he arrived at the scene, and he couldn't help feeling a little confused.

"Maybe today's mysterious guest has a big background." Fu Qi didn't understand, but still gave a reliable guess.

The people behind heard their conversation, and immediately couldn't hold back and said: "Don't you know? Because in two days it will be the [-]th anniversary celebration of iku video. , although the official website did not announce the guest candidates, but it is rumored on the Internet that Xie Qing, the actor of Sanliao, will be there, and several first-line female stars will also come, such as Yang Han, Tang Xiao, Zhang Shishi, etc. It is said that the famous director Wen Yuanshan will participate as a guest The selected guests are here."

"So that's the case, thank you, big brother." Ye Weilin suddenly understood and was also a little nervous. The most beautiful time in his previous life was too far away from him, and he couldn't adapt to the scene of celebrities and superstars at all.

Before he was nervous for too long, he and Fu Qi encountered an embarrassing situation.

When others walk the red carpet, they bring their own female companions, and some walk alone, but they are all well-known entertainers. There are very few scenes like them that are both unknown and two big men walking hand in hand.

Perhaps the scene was a bit funny, but they, who should have been ignored, also won a few films.

As soon as the two entered the arena, there were special reception staff to guide them to the corresponding seats—that is, the first three rows of seats in the hall.

This row is the seat of the main creative personnel selected for the competition. Both of them are sitting in the area with the number plate "2". Because "Zhuang Butterfly" ranked second in the finals, they both estimated that the seat number is based on the number of votes. Ranked.

Looking at the empty seats in the "1" area next door, Ye Weilin couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. It seemed that he had to meet some people again.

Sure enough, with the number of people entering the venue one after another, two familiar figures walked towards them from far and near.

Fu Qi saw that there was something wrong with his face looking at the front, so he couldn't help asking in a low voice: "What's the matter? Do you know them?"

"My uncle and his lover." After Ye Weilin answered concisely, the two men had already walked in front of them.

When Ming Yan saw Ye Weilin's figure from a distance, he couldn't believe his eyes. He subconsciously glanced at Ye Jiming beside him. The other person's expression was better controlled than his, but there was still a shock in his eyes.

Is such an excellent movie as "Zhuangnv's Dream Butterfly" really directed by Ye Weilin?

Instead of a new mainland director with the same name and surname?

It's a pity that the road was only a few short steps away, and the two of them were forced to face Ye Weilin before they recovered their mood.

"Long time no see." Ye Weilin understood the other party's feelings very well, and he also didn't want to talk to them.

After a while of silence, Ye Jiming responded, "Long time no see."

After he and Ming Yan sat down, they didn't speak again, and the awkward atmosphere continued until the selection process.

After the host finished reading the opening remarks, several judges took their seats one by one. There were eight judges sitting in front of the stage, and the one sitting in the middle was the famous director Wen Yuanshan that passers-by said before entering the stage.

Strictly speaking, Wen Yuanshan is not a director with a good reputation. He is over [-] years old, but he still has a young and trendy heart. Under his direction, he has produced a series of box office hits. Movies that sell well but have a bad reputation, without exception, these movies are full of the following elements: starring popular idols, guest appearances at the level of actor and actress, Mary Su-style scripts, and exquisite and beautiful sets.

Although the reputation is bad, people still buy it, and the box office has repeatedly hit new highs. Driven by him, there have been large-scale follow-up works in the Chinese market in the past two years, all with high box office and bad reputation.

It stands to reason that such a director with a controversial reputation should not be invited as a judge for the "Youth·Time" micro-movie, but Wen Yuanshan's label is not only the king of bad movies, but also "Best Director of the Golden Horse Award" and "a member of the International Film Critics Association". "Super Judge" and other honors, and because of this, the public has a higher tolerance for him than other bad film directors.

Sitting on both sides of him are the three-material actor Xie Qing, and the new actress Mo Yuhan who won the Academy Award, and behind him is a senior executive of Fengteng Films, and two famous film critics and online friends. Two Internet celebrities who are famous for their sharp comments.

After Wen Yuanshan signaled to start the judging, the big screen in front of the stage began to play the introduction of the selected films and the number of online votes.

"Then let's start with the last one." Wen Yuanshan said to the people on both sides with a smile. No one else would dare to disagree with him, they all agreed.

"The script of "The Swing in the Secret Garden" is unique, and the shooting technique is also very novel..." As a heavyweight, Wen Yuanshan was of course the first to comment. Following his words, the picture on the big screen is also changing , Several content screens that have been intercepted a long time ago are also presented on it, which confirms the correctness of the comments.

Ye Weilin was a little interested at first, but only then did he realize that this was a "reality show" that had been rehearsed long ago.

"It seems that the rankings and awards have already been arranged." Fu Qi also said in a low voice.

Wen Yuanshan didn't talk much, he quickly finished his review, and gave him an eight out of [-]. It seems that he is quite optimistic about this film.

The following is the comment of Xie Qing, the actor of the Three Materials. What he said is similar to Wen Yuanshan, and it is mainly based on praise. The following judges seem to be in collusion, and they are all based on praise. A few shortcomings are all referenced. Wen Yuanshan's remarks.

In the end, "The Swing in the Secret Garden" scored an average of 8.2. With reference to the scores of the previous two selected films, this is already very good, and it is even expected to hit the top three, if the scores of this session are not too high.

But the next few works were not so lucky, and they all ended with around 7.5 points.

Seeing this, Ye Weilin couldn't help but shook his head and sighed in disbelief: "Others use Wen Yuanshan as a weathervane, and what he says is what he says."

Fu Qi naturally felt it too, and he didn't care as much about the ranking in the bottom of his heart as he did at the beginning.

What they want is real approval, not false accommodation.

Soon, the selection came to the last juncture, that is, the comments of the top three.

Unexpectedly, "My Xueba at the same Table", which ranked third in the number of votes, did not win Wen Yuanshan's favor, and he even said with disgust: "Although the filming is good, it would be great if you put more effort into it. "

The implication of this sentence is that people didn't pay attention to filming.

Sitting in the "3" area not far from Ye Weilin, several main creators' faces were frozen with laughter, and they had to control their expressions, lest the media would catch the rude side and make a big fuss.

Ye Weilin has no time to care about others now, because their works have been captured on the big screen.

"First of all, I have to say that I watched this movie twice from beginning to end." Wen Yuanshan said the first comment with a smile.

Hearing this, both Ye Weilin and Fu Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Wen Yuanshan's statement had a direct impact on the review results. This sentence was obviously commendatory, which proved that the result should not be too bad.

Even if there are doubts about the ranking and awards, it is better to get them than to leave empty-handed. After all, their original intention is to have a dazzling resume.

"But to be honest, I read it twice and still don't see anything worthy of praise." Wen Yuanshan's next words dragged the two of them back from heaven to hell in an instant.

"The script is quite interesting and has a high intention. It is mainly to criticize the young people who are too addicted to the Internet. But it is a pity that the expression of the lens is almost incomprehensible, and the shooting technique is also clichéd, with the shadow of a comedy film. It's too absurd to believable."

"In short, this is the only one that surprised me among the ten selected micro-films." Wen Yuanshan paused, and continued: "I am surprised why such a film was selected into the top ten Woolen cloth?"

"I think, maybe it's because the script fits some popular spoof elements that it enjoys such a high popularity among the public." In the end, Wen Yuanshan came to such a conclusion.

These merciless words were no less than an insult to Ye Weilin, who had always been full of professional confidence.

He endured all kinds of gazes from all directions, and pretended to be calm. He didn't smirk like the main creators in Area 3 just now, nor did he show any displeasure. He still maintained the expression just now, making it hard to see the clue .

Fu Qi's restraint was a little weak, and he fixed his gaze on Wen Yuanshan, as if he wanted to poke a hole in him.

The scene was a bit embarrassing, Wen Yuanshan never showed his poisonous tongue, and it was the first time that he said something so harsh. The other judges who followed were not as harsh as Wen Yuanshan, but overall they still focused on derogation.

In the end, "Zhuangnv's Dream Butterfly" scored the lowest score of 6.1 points in the audience, just on the passing line.

This score, the ranking is definitely not there.As for the awards...how could there be any given that all the judges gave unanimous negative reviews?

The two people who thought they could win at least one award specially asked for leave in advance for tonight's awards ceremony, bought air tickets, and flew from the capital to Shanghai, but sitting here tonight seemed like a joke.
