2769, one talks nonsense and the other talks nonsense
It was only 8:30 in the evening when we came out of the salon. The Berlin night was not as lively as the Pujiang River, but it still had its own charm. Li Qing arranged a nanny car to take everyone around Berlin.
It wasn't until 9:30 pm that everyone returned to the hotel to rest.
Xiaobai and Zhang Tan lived in the same room. As soon as she came back, she made a video call to her grandma to report today's itinerary.
The next day, the Berlin Film Festival opened.
While having breakfast in the morning, Zhang Tan saw Yao Quan and Wan Kun who had just arrived last night.
Because they had other schedules, they didn't fly to Berlin until last night.
Zhang Tan chatted with them and were invited to attend the opening ceremony. The opening film was "Your Eyes" from Argentina, which is a suspense film.
Zhang Tan watched with great interest, but Liuliu and the others were yawning and listless, almost hypnotized.
Xiaobai, on the other hand, sat up straight and looked at it very seriously.
Zhang Tan asked her if she looked good. Xiaobai nodded solemnly and said nothing, not allowing her to wander off.
But Xi'er, who was sitting next to her, kept wiggling her buttocks and moving around. Xiaobai couldn't bear it anymore and asked her to sit quietly.
Xiwawa quickly sat up straight, but after being quiet for a while, he started to twist again.
It is really difficult for a child as young as her to sit here and watch a movie for more than an hour. The key is that it is a movie that she cannot understand. If it is "Dora the Adventures", she can watch it all day long without moving.
What a shit.
She glanced at Xiaobai from time to time, wondering why Xiaobai looked at it so seriously. Is it really that good-looking?
She asked in a low voice, and Xiaobai said angrily: "I am a director, can I not understand?"
Xiwawa muttered about the director, she didn't understand him.
Then he asked in a low voice: "Xiaobai, is Li Xiaolang really Xiaoying's boyfriend?"
This? This, this, this, Xiaobai really doesn’t want to talk to her, but she just can’t help it. She is an expert in "Cardcaptor Sakura"!
"He is." Xiaobai simply responded.
Xi'er continued to murmur, "Sakura already has a boyfriend, why doesn't my sister have one?"
Xiaobai ignored her, but Xiwawa asked questions from "Cardcaptor Sakura" from time to time, which made her unable to concentrate.
"If you keep talking, I won't help you eat eggs tomorrow morning." Xiaobai unleashed his trump card.
Sure enough, Xiwawa stopped talking.
Xiaobai continued to stare at the big screen seriously. In fact, she couldn't understand what the movie was about at all. Although she tried hard to watch it, she just went through the scene in her mind without leaving any trace.
But she must have that style, her old man told her, she is also a director now, she must have the style of a director.
She couldn't embarrass the old man, so she had to pretend to watch the movie with gusto even though she clearly didn't understand it.
The tormenting hour and a half finally passed. The movie ended. There was warm applause. Cheng Cheng had fallen asleep and Liliu was fast.
Only Xiaobai applauded enthusiastically and took the opportunity to stretch out.
The opening ceremony is over. In the next few days, there will be various screening sessions and film trading activities. The highlight is here.
This afternoon, the film brought by Zhang Tan will be screened first, "Our Summer".
All the staff from Little Red Horse Film and Television are here and busy. Zhang Tan, as the director of this movie, naturally has to take the lead.
He didn't want Xiaobai and Liuliu to be too tired, so he asked them to sit in their seats early.
Lucy from the organizer of the Berlin Film Festival came, and with her were several people who came to Pujiang to shoot Xiaobai's nominated short video.
Geoffrey also came, with several companions.
Although he is not very interested in "Our Summer", he is interested in Zhang Tan and is very interested in cooperating with Little Red Horse Film and Television.
The influence of participating in the salon yesterday was reflected. Many people from the industry who met at the salon last night came to support me, including colleagues from North America, the Middle East, Northern Europe, and South America.
Zhang Tan saw that the director of the film "Your Eyes" at the opening ceremony also came.
Several people with Asian faces came over, both men and women. They spoke in Japanese and bowed before saying anything.
They are several people from the Japanese film industry.
What surprised Zhang Tan was that several groups of Japanese film professionals came one after another. He did not think that these people came to give him face, but that they all came for "Our Summer".
Zhang Tan naturally welcomed it warmly, and he also hoped that "Our Summer" would sell at a good price in Japan.
Many Korean filmmakers also came.
The cinema was full, so Zhang Tan returned to the front row and sat down. There was a host opening the show. This was arranged by the film festival organizer. Zhang Tan felt it was necessary, so he stayed.
After a simple opening, Zhang Tan was invited to the stage to speak.
Also present were Xiaobai, Liuliu, Yao Quan, Wan Kun and others.
The microphone was given to Zhang Tan. The host had already introduced him, and this was the director.
When Zhang Tan stood in front of the stage, Xi'er who was sitting below was very anxious.
"Didn't godfather prepare a speech? What did he say?"
Tan Jin'er comforted her and said, "Don't worry, your godfather is very powerful. He doesn't need a speech script."
"Will he laugh?"
"He laughs a lot."
"Does he speak English or our Chinese language?"
"Probably speaking English."
Xi'er suddenly said to her side: "Dudu, please translate."
Dudu: "...I don't know English."
"Aren't you great at baby talk?"
Dudu laughs.
Zhang Tan in front of the stage was already talking.
""Our Summer" is a very simple movie. The protagonists of the movie are two little girls. They are very charming young actors. Although they are very young, they have appeared in many movies and TV series. They are very amazing.
The story is very simple. The mother of the little girl Xiaobai disappeared and went to live a new life elsewhere. Summer vacation came, Xiaobai decided to find her mother. On the way, she met another little girl Liuliu, and she decided to accompany her.
Find her mother and protect her. But in fact, she is still a child who needs protection. During their journey, they met some interesting people and many things happened. They warmed each other and grew up with each other. Photograph
When I made this movie, my only purpose was to make something simple but interesting. I didn’t think about what people who watched it would learn from it. But if the audience can really learn a little bit from it, we would be very happy...
"
After Zhang Tan finished speaking and the applause stopped, the host smiled and said, "I believe everyone would really like to hear what the two young actors have to say to us."
Zhang Tan squatted down and handed the microphone between Xiaobai and Liuliu.
"Xiao, Xiaobai, tell me." Liuliu was a little nervous. She has a timid personality.
Xiaobai remembers what everyone told her before she came here, not to embarrass the country but to bring glory to the Chinese nation!
So she recalled the draft that Xiwawa had written for them before, and said: "We are two old actors. When we were filming this movie, it was like playing. We were not tired at all, it was very relaxed, and it was just fun."
The filming was finished right away..."
As she spoke, she looked at Zhang Tan.
She spoke in Chinese and needed her old man to translate for her.
Zhang Tan translated: "There was not much pressure during the filming of this movie. The atmosphere on the crew was very relaxed. It really felt like I was on summer vacation..."
From time to time, Xiaobai would say one or two tough words. Fortunately, Zhang Tan needed to translate them, otherwise the original words would make everyone in the room an uproar.
So Zhang Tan translated everything into another meaning.
Xiaobai was happy when he said it, and everyone was happy when he heard it. They felt that this child was not very old, but what he said was very steady and accurate.
Only a few bilingual people below know how different the meanings of what Zhang Tan and Xiao Bai said are.
For example, Xiwawa was muttering that Xiaobai was talking nonsense and his godfather was translating nonsense.
"Liuliu, please say a few words, don't be afraid of crooked nuts, you coward. When you go abroad, are you afraid of crooked nuts?"
