Chapter 312
The chain reaction after the film won the award
If there is a record called "Who cried the most at the Berlin Film Festival Awards Ceremony", then Yan Siling has broken it tonight and will maintain this record for many years.
When Yan Siling went on stage to receive the award, her steps onto the stairs were weak. Her brain was disconnected when she received the trophy. Fortunately, she burst into tears on the stage, and the host and the audience were moved by her sincerity and did not urge her to speed up the process.
Yan Siling didn't remember what she said after she stepped down from the stage, but it didn't matter, as the audience at the scene, in the live broadcast room, and in front of the TV were all very considerate of her.
Because she is too young and too outstanding. Such an achievement is like pie in the sky for a young person. It is understandable how ecstatic she is or how much she cries with joy.
Yan Siling returned to the hotel surrounded by the main creators. It was not until she felt the cold wind blowing in her face that she came to her senses.
Tonight, she has announced the good news to Ling Suisui, took many photos at the scene, and accepted several interviews. She held the Golden Bear trophy in her arms, and it felt heavy, heavier than real gold.
The fact that "Unmarriageable Sisters" won the award in Berlin has become a hot search on multiple platforms in China, but due to the time difference, there are actually not many people online at this moment. If the leading actress was not Ling Suisui, there would definitely not be such popularity.
Yan Siling estimated that the volume of discussion would really explode after they woke up from a nap.
She really wanted to sleep, but she was so excited that she couldn't fall asleep at all. She took out her phone and saw that no one in the Berlin team's group chat was asleep. Except for Ling Suisui who was there during the day, everyone else was able to endure.
Then don’t sleep anymore, get up and have fun!
Yan Siling called people in the group and immediately formed a werewolf killing game. About ten people gathered in her room, sending videos one after another. They also went to buy barbecue and beer nearby. They probably won’t sleep in the short term.
Ling Sui looked at the time. It was already two or three in the morning. Were they going to stay up all night?
"Just let them have fun." Zhang Wen said with a smile, "Teacher Gu is here, he will watch over it."
Ling Suisui thought so too. Apart from anything else, Gu Size had finally enjoyed this honor, and he would never let anything happen to himself and his companions. No one wanted everyone to return home safely, healthily, and in glory more than he did.
Zhang Wen also joked: "After all, he is the emperor of the year. Going to Ou San is already familiar to me. I don't feel any waves in my mood."
Is it strange for Ling Suisui to receive an award? It's not surprising indeed.
Yan Siling felt sorry that she was not there. If Ling Suisui had gone on stage to receive the award, she would definitely not have contributed a lot of emoticons like she did... But Ling Suisui said that even if she was there, the Golden Bear Award should be received by the director, after all, this was an honor for the entire crew.
Because "Unmarriageable Sister" won the Golden Bear Award, the domestic debate and bet on "whether Ling Suisui can win the Berlin Film Festival Best Actress" has come to an end.
You said she won an award, that’s true, there are very few films that can win two or more awards in the three main European competitions; but if you say that she didn’t win anything this time... Under the above rule, who can say that the Best Picture award is less valuable than the Best Actor award?
As for some people who insist that "only individual awards count as an actor's star power", that is even more untenable. When it comes to starlight, doesn’t Ling Sui have enough of it?
To put it bluntly, if Ling Sui's film hadn't been nominated, focusing everyone's attention on overseas awards, some people might not even be able to count which film festivals Europe 3 is. Now they start pretending to know a lot, which is really funny.
While celebrating, Sui Si went all out on various platforms, angrily criticizing haters, and even went to the official Weibo of Fengshou Media to urge them frantically.
Now that the movie has won an award, why not take advantage of the excitement and quickly arrange for its release. You don't have as strong publicity resources as Director Pei, so if not now, when?
Fans have already planned to boost the pre-sale box office, how to buy tickets before the film is released to secure the screening schedule, how to recommend the film to friends and family, and which cities across the country will host offline support... You guys should also take action quickly, do you still need someone to urge you for this kind of thing!
The person in charge of the official Weibo account of Fengshou Media is an intern. She was overwhelmed by so many comments. She didn’t expect that the people who were commenting on her were not her colleagues or her boss, but her fans.
I only heard that their boss Ling Suisui is the king of career, but I didn't expect to see what it means to be a fan following the boss today.
She packaged these opinions and summarized them for her superiors, who then passed them up to Tong Xiaoman's desk.
Tong Xiaoman called Ling Suisui to discuss: "It will be released in late March, is that okay with you?"
The original plan was actually April, but since we won an award at the Berlin Film Festival, we might as well strike while the iron is hot and release it.
This matter not only asked about Ling Sui's opinion, but also about her schedule. Although the company does not have high box office expectations for this movie, it still needs to do the necessary promotion, such as appearing on a few variety shows and cueing everyone's new works.
The box office of the movie is directly related to the company and the income of the major shareholder Ling Suisui. She will definitely cooperate with this, and the other leading actors are also very happy.
On the one hand, they wanted to improve their relationship with Ling Suisui and could not fail to give her face; on the other hand, winning an award at Ousan was such an honor that Gu Size and others wanted to use a loud speaker to shout about it everywhere. If conditions permitted, they would even want to make a ribbon and hang it on themselves.
Although the latter sentence is exaggerated, they really want to say to everyone they meet: What, how did you know my new movie won the Golden Bear Award? The highest award of the Berlin Film Festival!
In less than a day, Ling Sui's private chat list was flooded with red dots again. She also saw the tweet forwarded by Tang Bing. The official Weibo account of the Film Academy wrote congratulations to "Unmarriageable Sister" for winning the award on the headline, and it quickly accumulated more than 100,000 readings.
I checked my Moments again and found that everyone was forwarding it. Ling Sui's classmates group, Yan Siling's classmates group, Zhang Haoyu's classmates group, etc., were all filled with this tweet and various congratulations.
This is indeed a big deal. Ling Sui didn’t even enjoy such treatment when she won the Best Actress Award at the Cannes last time.
But it's normal. She was the only one who won the award before, and people around her are used to her excellence. So no matter how good the result is, she feels that it's "deserved".
This time, the director of "Unmarriageable Sister" graduated from a film academy, the leading actress graduated from a film academy, and the list of leading actors also contains a high number of graduates from film academies. What does this indicate? This shows that the talents cultivated by the school are very excellent!
The principal was very happy. Although he did not participate in the production of the film, he felt proud of it.
He had nothing else to do in the next few days, so he wanted to visit the school-level leaders of several other art colleges. Let me make it clear in advance that he has absolutely no intention of showing off. It's just that these graduates have achieved good results and brought glory to Chinese films, and he especially wants more people to share this joy.
Things like which of the three major universities is leading, which one this year's candidates prefer, and whether the admission score may increase... What bad intentions could the principal have? Why would he bring up these topics on his own initiative? He would only comfort them and tell them not to take it seriously, as these were just random comments from netizens.
Although you don’t have Ling Suisui, Yan Siling, or a recruitment video with over a million likes... your students are still very outstanding, just a little bit worse than us.
Although the principal did not say this aloud, his thoughts were written on his face. The school leaders of several universities smiled in front of others, but behind their backs they were gritting their teeth and cursing in particularly harsh terms.
Isn’t it just a recruitment video with over a million likes on Douzi? If you have the guts, please don’t post Ling Sui’s “Welcome to apply to the Film Academy”! The film academy has been using this piece of material repeatedly for several years! Do you have any shame?
There are celebrities from other schools too. The Central Academy of Drama and the Shanghai Theatre Academy have begun to recruit people crazily among their graduates. If they don’t have enough fame, can’t they make up for it with numbers? Just a million, they can get it as long as they put their heart into it.
The president of the Film Academy snorted after hearing this. Isn’t it just calling people? We are all well-known universities with accumulated experience and experience. How can we do such childish comparisons just because of momentary impulse?
——Ling Sui, who is in the United States, is very confused about the sudden invitation to record a recruitment video.
She would definitely be willing to help promote her alma mater, but the timing was strange... the registration for the art exam had ended, and the exam was over, the college entrance exam had not yet begun, and it was even earlier to fill out the application form, so why did they choose to find her at this time?
Even if you need to collect materials in advance, it shouldn't be three or four months in advance. She can finish such a small matter in just a few minutes and will not refuse.
Well, after Xia Tian told her, Ling Suisui realized that the film’s winning award had caused a chain reaction among several schools. The main reason is that several schools have been evenly matched for many years, and this year the Film Academy suddenly showed off, so the other schools are jealous.
If Ling Suisui was alone, it wouldn't be so enviable, but she invested in and starred in a movie by herself, and was able to involve her junior fellow students, which is very enviable.
Yan Siling became famous with one movie, Zhang Haoyu also had a representative work that could stand the test of time in the film industry, Gu Size and Tao Jing realized their dreams in Berlin, Ji Shuyan and Feng Li came to prominence... The actors who failed to get movie roles at the beginning are still beating their chests and stamping their feet, expressing great regret.
In early March, Ling Suisui temporarily left Burbank and returned to China.
She also brought her martial arts teacher with her on this trip, and promised the crew that she would never miss training no matter where she was.
Diland is very confident in her. In fact, her current level has fully met and even exceeded the director's expectations. Even if she performs poorly, it will not affect the shooting effect. It is her own persistence in striving for excellence.
Moreover, many people think that if they even doubt Ling Sui's self-discipline, then there is nothing trustworthy in this world.
Ling Sui's schedule after returning to China was very tight, because the release date of "Sister Who Can't Get Married" had been confirmed. Not only did she have to promote it, but she also had to participate in preview roadshows, read netizens' reviews, and fulfill her promise to persist in training.
With such a tight schedule, when the school leaders of the Film Academy enthusiastically invited her to return to the school to give lectures and promote the new film, Ling Suisui still agreed.
However, they mentioned something that she didn't expect.
Tang Bing relayed the message: "Sui Sui, do you want to be a visiting professor in the acting department?"
