Chapter 3318: Being discriminated against?

It is said that one needs to recuperate one’s energy, that is, one must recharge one’s energy. Regarding this point, whether it is Ye Ming or Damimi, both of them are doing quite well. After all, they are professionals. Professionals are Professional, no matter what, they also showed the numbers that professional actors should have.

The second day is the opening ceremony of the Berlin Film Festival. At this time, the two of them recharged their energy the night before. This is a very correct choice, because if you attend the opening ceremony, you must conserve your energy at this time.

Because the real thing started at six o'clock in the evening, so during the day, David also seized the last opportunity to carry out public relations and publicity.

By doing this, we can try our best to increase the influence of a movie like "Black Mine" in Berlin.

At this time, as the leading actor, Ye Ming also cooperated with the director to accept various interviews and fan meetings. There is no Glass Link here. Although "Black Mine" has only been promoted for a short time, it does have a group of fans. As for whether these fans are real fans or professional fans, is it David who is looking for him? It's hard to say, but no matter what, it's always good for a movie to have fans.

Anyway, for almost the whole day, Ye Ming and Director Li basically had no idle time. They only took a break for half an hour and had some lunch, and then they began to accept interviews from some domestic reporters. After all, interviews are paid to invite reporters. So since these reporters have paid to come here, they must be given some face. They must also interview the crew and make some specific preparations.

Although no one is very sure whether a movie like "Black Mine" will win an award at the Berlin Film Festival, but no matter what, you use people's money to eliminate disasters, right?

At this time, the interview still had to be carried out, but the reporter and the others were waiting aside unhurriedly.

Almost everyone who should be interviewed has been interviewed, and Ye Ming and Director Li were also interviewed exclusively by Reporter Su and others.

So in such a situation, Reporter Su, with two young colleagues standing by, looked unhurried, as if he was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai. An old fox is an old fox. At the critical moment, it is indeed Chen Shen. Stay angry.

One is because he knows that he has almost finished the interview, and the other is that he knows that the evening is the highlight. The awards ceremony officially starts at 6 o'clock in the evening. Can the movie "Black Mine" win an award and what award can it get?

At this time, the award ceremony is the key focus of reporters.

After arranging all the reporters in the country, Director Li also felt a little tired at this time: "Say, Ye Zi, this matter is indeed not particularly easy. Even if we spend money on public relations and publicity, we did not expect this acceptance. Interviewing is also physical work.

Are there any interviews in the afternoon? If there are still a lot of interviews, I guess I won’t have to wait until 6 o’clock, and I may run out of energy.

If there are too many interviews or something, I think it’s better to push it a little bit, otherwise I’m really afraid that I won’t be able to hold on. After all, there will be an awards ceremony tonight, and you said it won’t be appropriate for us to be in bad shape then. . "

At this time, Ye Ming said without hesitation: "Director, if you want to be rich in front of others, you must suffer first and then suffer. Where is this? The publicity we are doing now is just ordinary publicity. You haven't seen it. Too high a level of publicity. Real high-intensity publicity almost means that you can only sleep about three hours a day. The rest is either doing interviews or participating in programs, or on the way to the show.

Anyway, think about it, most popular celebrities are basically in this state, so don’t you think it’s inappropriate for you to say you feel tired at this time? Where are we now? We have only accepted less than ten interviews in the morning. We just had dinner, and now we are accepting interviews from reporters from domestic media.

This is still very important for our publicity, so don’t think that at a time like this, we can reject some interviews. These are a very good publicity effect for our film. Why should we reject them? Woolen cloth.

So it doesn’t matter if we attend the awards ceremony in the evening. Anyway, we should do almost everything. Just wait like this. Anyway, I think it’s best for us to add some interviews at this time to increase the exposure of our film. It can leave a deep impression on those attending the Berlin Film Festival.

Including the boss of the jury, the members of the jury, and even our colleagues in the main competition unit who are participating in the competition together, we must show our strongest side. If you feel that it is best to give up. .

Do we still have hope of victory at this time? Obviously it is impossible, so in such a situation, we must increase our publicity efforts to let more people know what kind of movie like Black Mine is. .

Only in this way can we have the opportunity to go to the podium to say a thank-you ceremony at the award ceremony. Of course, this is just an idea of ​​mine. Anyway, I think we just need to do our best to do the interview well. I think we should find two more media and promote these two local influential media in Berlin.

Anyway, all the money we should have spent has been spent. If we find two more, it will be a little more bargaining chip for us, right? Nowadays, it is no longer possible to find print media. Now, we can find interviews with TV or radio media. In this case, the audience in Berlin can understand the situation as soon as possible.

At least we want the audience to know that a film like our Black Mine has come and participated in the main competition section of the Berlin Film Festival. It doesn’t matter whether they will come to see it or not, and it doesn’t matter whether they are willing to know about it or not, but we must let They knew that a Chinese movie like Black Mine was already coming.

Director, we try not to give up at this time. When you can stand on the podium, you will feel that your current efforts are not in vain. Of course, if you don’t work hard, you will definitely not make money. After all, we at China Film It has been five years since the Berlin Film Festival won an award.

At this time, I think they seem to want to forget us, just like the movie. "

After some encouragement from Ye Ming, the director felt that this was really the case, and directly asked David to add two local media outlets in Berlin and two media outlets from local TV stations, because only TV news can be in the first place. It takes time to get the news out. In this case, there is still value in buying new people.

The time has come, it’s past 5:00 in the afternoon. At this time, the film crew of "Black Mine" is ready to arrive at the Berlin Film Festival Awards Ceremony. Potsdamer Platz in Berlin. At the Berlin Film Palace, Mr. Robinson, the boss of the Berlin Film Festival, is already here, waiting for the arrival of stars from all walks of life.

Of course, at this time everyone has already started preparing for the final red carpet walk. This is also the most exciting job, and of course it is all planned in advance.

There will be staff to guide you when walking on the red carpet. When will you start walking? Where to start? All have been prepared in advance and each crew has been notified. Since this matter has been decided, there will be no surprises. However, as for the crew of "Black Mine", there was a little surprise at this time.

The staff of the Berlin Film Festival said to David: "As for Mr. David, your crew does not comply with the regulations. As the director and lead actor of a crew, it is even said that his camera, lyrics, composer, editor, etc. are involved. It’s OK to walk on the red carpet when I’m thinking about you.

However, according to the rules, if a person who has nothing to do with the crew wants to walk on the red carpet with the crew, this is not allowed. Doesn't it mean that at our Berlin Film Festival, if you don't have a work, you can't walk on the red carpet? If a brand spokesperson has a cooperative relationship with our glass electrode, the spokesperson can come and walk on the red carpet. This is OK and is within the rules.

Well, the Berlin Film Festival also has cooperative relationships with many well-known international brands, so it also invites some of their spokespersons to walk on the red carpet every year. These are all in compliance with the rules.

But first of all, what you are doing wrong is that he is not a member of the monarch at all. Damimi is not a member of your crew at all, and he is not the official partner brand spokesperson of our Berlin Film Festival. In this case Well, if he wants to walk on the red carpet, it's a little against the rules.

So, for you guys, you either want to keep Damimi, or your crew can’t walk on the red carpet. This is a rule. Rules are rules, and they cannot be broken. "

Mr. David hesitated for a moment and said, "Can we be accommodating? Because this situation was not mentioned before..."

Before David finished explaining this, Ye Ming couldn't sit still anymore. He immediately pulled David aside and said without hesitation: "Sir, are you treating us with black light?" Is there any misunderstanding among the crew?

As I said to you, if there is no direct relationship with the film crew, then you can’t walk on the red carpet at this time, right? But before us, many celebrities came with their families, right?

They have no direct relationship with their crew. They are just family members, but you don’t have any bosses. Why can’t we give our family members to our "Black Mine" film crew? Did you take it with you?

I think what you do is discrimination. What you are doing is openly discriminating against our Chinese films. In the past, those movie stars, movie directors and so on in Hollywood and Europe were able to bring their families here. But when we come here, what can we do if we bring our family members?

Why don't I call Mr. Robinson and ask how the Berlin Film Festival is run? Is there such a rule that others can bring their families, but I can't bring my family?

The family members brought by others are not included in the cast, right? How come you discriminate against me when you come here? "

Discrimination, this is a very big label in foreign countries, such as racial discrimination, color discrimination, etc. If you are labeled with this label, the consequences will be quite tragic, so the staff obviously do not want to bear this label. Pot.

You can think it in your mind, and you can even actually do it, but you can't say it in public, or you will get into trouble if you say it.

Therefore, the staff immediately said: "As for Mr. Ye Ming, I think you have some misunderstandings. There were indeed family members of other film crews following us before, but these family members also have certain opinions on the film. Those who participate, although they may not be actors, but they will be involved in the film, or editors or lighting artists, etc.

No matter what, as long as my name is on the credits, there is no problem, or even saying that I participated in the movie.

No matter how you participate, as long as you participate in the relevant movie, you should be considered a member of the crew. Although the movie stars you saw came with their families, their family members did have positions or participated in the crew. of this movie.

However, it is impossible for your crew's Damimi to be like this. I have also watched your movie Black Mine, so I know Damimi. She is not an actor in your movie, right?

He is not your specific staff member, and he is not listed in the credits. So, he is someone who has nothing to do with this movie and someone who has nothing to do with this movie. So it is impossible to participate at this time. This is also a rule on the red carpet. For many years, we at the Berlin Film Festival have not broken the rule.

It's not that I deliberately embarrass you, it's not that I discriminate against you, but the rules are the rules. You can check the celebrities in front of you. Although they brought their families, their families did more or less act like themselves. The movie has a certain relationship.

They participated in the creation of the movie, so they can follow the movie stars on the red carpet, but you are different. But Damimi is not a member of your crew, so it is not appropriate for him to want to walk on the red carpet at this moment. Comply with the rules.

After all, in such a situation, the current movie time period is to prepare the stage for you stars and staff who have contributed to the movie, not for outsiders. Those who walk on the red carpet of the movie must have something to do with the movie. relationship people.

I am very responsible for this, and I don’t believe you can investigate afterwards. At this point in time, everyone who walks on the red carpet is related to the crew, and is someone who has participated in the movie, whether they are actors or actresses. They are the staff behind the scenes. As long as you have one of these, you are qualified to walk on the red carpet. Otherwise, it will be a pity. "
