Chapter 70 Berlin (7)

In the early morning of the next day, Xin Ye called.

He described the process of the awards ceremony in detail.When talking about the part of "Best Actress", Xin Ye lightly said: "It's Liu Yao."

Xie Lansheng: "...Ah!"

Xinye said again: "When accepting the award, I only thanked our crew. I said, Liu Yao will be very happy after knowing Silver Bear. The role of 'Li Fangfang' is the condensed life of Liu Yao. I hope everyone can remember Live up to her previous dedication."

"...Thank you, that's very kind." Xie Lansheng said.

Then Xin Ye continued to recall: "The best actor is xxx xxx, the best director is for "Judgment", and the best film is "Consummation". Director Xie, did you know that the audience applauded after the guests announced "Consummation" It took 6 minutes. The filmmakers on both sides of the aisle stood up and hugged me. It took me five or six minutes to walk to the stage. I said, this film is the crystallization of everyone’s joint efforts. The master Liu Yao dedicated himself, the photographer Qi Yong came from the United States, and the recording Cen Chen..."

"Well," Xie Lansheng said in a low voice, "I really want to see the trophy right away."

"We'll see next week."

"Okay. I'll wait for it... and you too." After speaking, Xie Lansheng was embarrassed again, and quickly asked, "By the way, what about the jury award?"

"Oh, I just missed it." Xin Ye added, "Swedish movie "Farewell in the Classroom"."

"..." Xie Lansheng couldn't believe it, "So, Li Xian got nothing?"

Xin Ye's voice was firm: "Nothing, nothing. I heard from their translator that a director of Universal Pictures told the American director of "Judgment" that the Golden Bear was a Chinese film, and the Silver Bear would go to "Judgment." Li Xian They overheard it, thinking they had made up their minds, and even booked a celebration dinner in a big hotel in Berlin."

Lan Sheng smiled for the first time.

Xinye added: "Director Xie, I just asked the organizing committee for a copy of the award presentation video, and they promised to send you three VCDs next week, pay attention to check."

"Ah," Xie Lansheng said, "Xin Ye, thank you, you are so careful."

Xinye sneered and said, "It's not difficult to imagine."

…………

Hang up the phone is seven o'clock.

Xie Lansheng went to the flower market to buy a bouquet of celebratory flowers.The main flower is lilac. The flower girl said it symbolizes glory and immortality, which has a good meaning.

As promised, Xie Lansheng went to the grave to share the good news with Liu Yao when the park opened at [-] o'clock.He placed the bouquet in front of the grave and said, "Liu Yao, congratulations, "Consummation" won the best picture, and you also won the best actress."

Still only the wind blows quietly.

However, it was no longer cold to the bone, but with a hint of tenderness.

Spring is really coming.

Lan Sheng didn't stand for too long this time, and went home at about 9 o'clock.At the bus stop where he got off, he bought all the newspapers of the day, including "Beijing Daily", "Beijing Evening News", "People's Daily", "Global Times", "Reference News", "Guangming Daily", "China Women's Daily", "China Youth Daily", "China Youth Daily" Newspaper... Take it home and read it.

It was later discovered that none of the mainstream major newspapers reported the news of "Consummation"'s capture of the bear, and only a few tabloids gave it a page as big as a tofu block.The vast majority of news media did not mention the Berlin Film Festival at all, and only a few mainstream reporters wrote "Li Xian lost the bear".

"..." Xie Lansheng couldn't help but think: The major media don't report it, so is the pirate businessman well-informed?Do you not know?

Forget it, let's go see it after selling the film.

If the pirates do not steal, they are forced to do so.

Xie Lansheng gritted his teeth when he thought of this.

…………

Xinye stayed in Berlin for another week because he still had to sell the film, and finally sold 125 million US dollars.

Xie Lansheng was shocked by the numbers.

In the past, the only films he could sell in Europe and America were "Rooting" and "The Beautiful Sea". "The Beautiful Sea" is the most expensive, earning him 45 U.S. dollars, including 20 U.S. dollars, 15 U.K., and 10 Japan. This time, Xin Ye actually sold the U.S. copyright for 50 U.S. dollars, and the contract also required The other party offered another 50 publicity fees to help Xie Lansheng open up the market.The European copyright is also 50, and Japan's is 25.

At this time, the exchange rate has been single-tracked, almost one to eight, and is no longer divided into official exchange rate and real black market exchange rate. It has been unified and standardized, and 125 million US dollars is 1000 million RMB.Moreover, the central government has issued a document, starting from April 1996, 4, all restrictions on recurring international payments and transfers will be removed, and the current account convertibility of RMB will be realized. You can go to a big bank to exchange dollars for RMB by yourself.

Xin Ye was still dissatisfied with this, and said that he would continue to sell it when he returned to China.

Xie Lansheng, who had never seen too many banknotes, did not dare to sell them, for fear that the Film Bureau would settle accounts with him.

——March 3rd is the day Xinye will return to Beijing.

At 8 am in Berlin time, and at 3 pm in Beijing time, it was quite beyond Lan Sheng's expectation that the Best Actor of Xin University called.Xie Lansheng originally thought that Xinye would communicate with him before going to the airport.

"Director Xie," Xinye's voice was resonant, "the plane will leave at night. I'm wandering in Berlin now."

"But," Xie Lansheng was puzzled, "Since winning Best Actor with "Wandering", haven't you already gone shopping?"

"Well," Xin Ye smiled, "Lan Sheng, I'm at a public phone booth by the Berlin Wall."

"...Ah!" Xie Lansheng was quite surprised.

"Well," Xin Ye seemed to be looking into the distance, "You know, a section of the Berlin Wall was torn down as early as 1990. Later, artists from various countries painted on the Berlin Wall to celebrate, which is very famous. At 1316 meters, it It is currently the largest open-air gallery in the world."

Xie Lansheng said: "Yes, I have read it." After World War II, due to the defeat, Berlin was divided into four parts, the Soviet Union occupied the East of Berlin, and Britain and the United States occupied the West of Berlin. On November 1989, 11, after a rally of 9 people, the Soviet Union relaxed its control on East Germans going to West Germany. However, due to misinformation, the public thought that "Where you go", tens of thousands of people went to the wall, and the Soviet Union was banned. The fence was forced to be released, and then the crowd rushed up and smashed the wall with tools. In June 50, East Germany officially demolished the city wall, and in October, the two Germanys were unified.

"Well," Xin Ye said, "the East Side Gallery is the longest section of the three existing walls. "Brothers' Kiss" is the most famous painting here. It contains photos of the leaders of the Soviet Union and East Germany kissing, symbolizing cooperation .Also, the Spree River is nearby, which is very beautiful.”

Xie Lansheng held the microphone in his hand, imagining what Xin Ye said.

"Lan Sheng," Xin Ye continued, "I'll tell you what you can see at the scenic spot, it's like coming together."

"...Well." At this time, Lan Sheng already understood the intention of the film star Xin Da - the two of them were supposed to travel to Berlin together after the film festival, but they couldn't go by themselves, so Xin Ye called various attractions and said there was something , just like I arrived.

Xie Lansheng was heartbroken again.

The man is romantic, and he is romantic.Xie Lansheng was born in 1969. He has never seen romance. Except in movies or on TV, most people around him think that love is daily necessities, but Xinye is so special, which makes his heart move.

"Lan Sheng," Xin Ye's voice came again, "I just took a lot of photos, you can look at them after you get them."

"Well," Xie Lansheng said, "I want to see it."

"Okay," Xinye said again, "Then I'm going to Brandenburg."

Xie Lansheng didn't ask what it was, just smiled and said: "Then I'll wait for the next call."

Sure enough, after a while, Xie Lansheng received another call, and Xin Ye's voice was still low: "Brandenburg is in the city center, it is a gate of the Berlin Wall. The building imitates the Acropolis of Athens, and the goddess of victory is on the top of the gate...It is surrounded by Paris Square, a very bustling square.”

Xie Lansheng continued to imagine: the goddess of victory... is in the carriage?

Then Xin Ye walked to the Jewish Monument and Jewish Museum not far away.There are 2711 black steles spread out in the open space one by one, like a wave of tombs, which makes people feel very heavy.The embassies of various countries are also here, and its significance can be imagined.

Xie Lansheng worked hard to conceive again.

Then there is the Victory Column - to commemorate the three wars of Putin, Prussia, and Franco-Prussia, and commemorate the unification of Germany and the establishment of Germany in 1870.Then there is the Berlin Cathedral, which is magnificent and magnificent, and there is the largest pipe organ, then the Parliament Building, and finally the Museum Island, with history and art.

After all the shopping, Xin Ye went to a restaurant to drink beer and eat sausage. He said while drinking, Xie Lansheng only smiled softly, thinking that he had tasted it too.

Such a "together tour" is really special, and can even be remembered for a lifetime.

Finally, at 5:12 p.m. Berlin time and [-]:[-] a.m. Beijing time, Xin Ye planned to go back to the hotel for checkout and then set off for the airport.

On the phone, he asked, "Lan Sheng, are you going to pick up the plane?"

Xie Lansheng said, "No."

Xin Ye: "..."

"Xinye," Xie Lansheng said softly immediately afterward, "The night you return to Beijing, let's meet in Jingshan, okay? I have something important to say."

Xin Ye was taken aback.

Jingshan.

On December 1991, 12, he was there to say he loved him.

Xie Lansheng said to himself again: "If everything goes well... come down, let's eat 'Shunfeng'." In 1991, he said that he would eat Shunfeng, but the two parted ways in Jingshan, and Xin Ye turned his head and went down the mountain. The black windbreaker fluttered.

Xie Lansheng wanted to make a solemn confession.

In all fairness, although he decided to "give it a try" after the finale of "Consummation", he knew that he liked Xinye, and he also knew that Xinye liked himself, but at that time, in this era, he was inseparable from a man for the rest of his life. , he still has some confusion.

This road is full of thorns, can they really go to the end?I will not marry "Li Fangfang", they may separate.A rebellious and stubborn person like Xie Lansheng dare not say that he will have a happy ending.

At that time, what he thought was that it would be fine if he would not regret it.

Now, however, he was determined.

Liu Yao was so miserable that he even committed suicide because no one was with her, and he himself had the best movie star, so lucky to be so lucky, why would he give up, and why not cherish it?

Xin Ye's love is the best thing he has so far, he will not let go, even if he dies.

Thinking of this, he asked again: "Xin Ye, I won't pick up the plane tomorrow. At 6 o'clock in the evening, we can meet directly in the sunset of Jingshan, okay?"

"Yeah." Xin Ye let out a chuckle in his throat, "Tomorrow at 6 o'clock in the evening, we will meet directly in the sunset of Jingshan, and it is a deal."

The author has something to say:

There will be an ending after the scumbag!But this part has nothing to do with him, he is not an important person, the focus is on the career line!There is also a love line!

Some students have never seen a BP machine in the 90s.It is different from SMS.The person who sends the message needs to call the paging station, tell the paging lady what to send, and the paging lady will manually send the message to the owner, like this!Because words can be misunderstood, messages often have typos...
