Chapter 442 Zhang Ziyi’s ambition

The wheel of history is still moving forward slowly. In the end, Na Ying did not accept the invitation to the Spring Festival Gala. Everything was the same as in the previous life. In the end, the two real diva-level singers in the mainland were not able to attend the Spring Festival Gala for two thousand years. Except for one more Fan Binbin, everything is going on as usual. Lin Xinru, as a representative of Baodao actors, was invited by the Spring Festival Gala.

At the last makeup rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala, Ye Ming met an acquaintance, Zhang Ziyi. Although Zhang Ziyi still looked arrogant at this time, she had finally begun to adapt after a year of training. Some people in the entertainment industry are sophisticated. Even if Zhang Ziyi is not very happy to see Ye Ming, she cannot ignore Ye Ming's achievements. Besides, the two of them have collaborated in the film "My Father and Mother". The most brilliant movie outside of China is Zhang Yimou's latest masterpiece.

Therefore, even in terms of publicity, Zhang Ziyi and Ye Ming had some interactions. Although their personalities doomed them to not become friends, at least when they met, Zhang Ziyi was not the cold-faced and indifferent person. According to Ye Ming's status in the entertainment industry, if Zhang Ziyi didn't take the initiative to come over and say hello after seeing her, then at this time, Ye Ming could completely ignore Zhang Ziyi.

So when Zhang Ziyi saw Ye Ming, she learned to say hello proactively: "Ye Ming, I didn't expect that you would sing the opening song. This is a dream of all singers.

If there is a chance, make an appointment with Director Zhang and let's get together. "The reason why Zhang Ziyi changed like this is because Zhang Yimou told her that in the entertainment industry, even if you don't like a person very much, as long as you say you don't intend to break up with him, it is very helpful to meet and greet him. Necessary, the entertainment industry is a big stage, and everyone wears a mask to enter the entertainment industry.

Only artists who truly use this mask can go further. Artists who wear everything on their faces will eventually be eliminated.

This is Zhang Yimou's experience. It is impossible for ordinary people to get such guidance from Director Zhang.

Zhang Yimou actually wanted to turn Zhang Ziyi into the second Gong Li, so under such a situation, he would spare no effort to cultivate Zhang Ziyi. Ye Ming also didn't expect to be so stiff with Zhang Ziyi, so he said with a smile: "This relationship is good. After the rehearsal, I will see if Director Zhang has time and ask him to come out and sit down."

In the Spring Festival Gala crew, the tense atmosphere was like a mountain pressing on every actor's head. Before the live broadcast actually started, most of the actors were worried about whether they would be taken down.

Ye Ming could also see this from everyone's solemn expressions. Even the top performers in the Spring Festival Gala's low-level cross talk show had quite stern expressions on their faces, even though they were frequent guests of the Spring Festival Gala.

However, the Spring Festival Gala was reformed to the point that they no longer recognized it. Is this still the Spring Festival Gala? Therefore, at this time, except for Uncle Benshan who is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, the remaining actors are beating the drums in their hearts. Even though Zhang Ziyi had Zhang Yimou's recommendation, she was still worried.

Moreover, Zhang Ziyi has many acquaintances in the Spring Festival Gala crew. Her cold and arrogant love songs destined her to be unable to mingle with others in a short time.

For example, several dancers from the Spring Festival Gala wanted to take a photo with Zhang Ziyi, but Zhang Ziyi turned them down on the excuse that they were too busy.

In fact, not much time is wasted taking photos and signing autographs, but Zhang Ziyi's character just seems more arrogant.

She hasn't learned how to get along with her fans yet.

At this time, Ye Ming could see several rejected dancers muttering: "What's so great? They just followed Director Zhang. There were so many big-name actors in the Spring Festival Gala, and they didn't see anyone else." Isn’t it great to act like a big name and act like a big name in the Spring Festival Gala?”

Another little sister pulled the dancer and said: "Forget it, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. Who makes me look like a girl? Her starting point is much higher than mine."

Watching the two dancers leave, Ye Ming shook his head. Although Zhang Ziyi also tried hard to integrate into this big stage, it was still not possible to change her sexual personality in a short period of time. of. On the evening of the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal ended. In Media's cafe, Ye Ming drank fragrant coffee and quietly savored the tranquility.

Zhang Yimou's honest voice came to mind: "Ye Ming, you are so excited to be alone when you arrive. You are hiding here to relax, but it is very lively outside. They are all reporters looking for you Spring Festival Gala actors to interview." As he spoke, Zhang Yimou said with a smile Zhang Ziyi came over. Obviously, after the rehearsal, Zhang Ziyi found Zhang Yimou, and then they came to the appointment together.

Ye Ming stood up with a smile and said: "Those reporters, it's better to stay away, otherwise we don't know what news will appear tomorrow. Director Zhang, seeing your mood, it's very good. Do you have anything festive to say?" Listen." When I saw Zhang Yimou's red old face, as if it were a blooming flower, I knew something good was going on. Zhang Yimou happily sat down and said: "You are right, there is really good news. News has come from the Berlin Film Festival. [My Father and Mother] has become a film in the competition. After passing In the new year, I must have two actors, you and Zhang Ziyi, go to Berlin with me."

As expected by Ye Ming, "My Father and Mother" won the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, and Zhang Ziyi also rose to prominence internationally with this film. What will really make Zhang Ziyi famous is next year. [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon]. But it is undeniable that [my father and mother] put Zhang Ziyi at a very high starting point.

At least being able to be known as one of the top four beauties like Zhao Wei is definitely not lucky. When Zhang Yimou talked about this, it could be seen that Zhang Ziyi was also very excited. The suppressed ambition in Zhang Ziyi's eyes was like a burning flame, as if it was going to burn the air.

The Berlin Film Festival, one of the three major international film festivals, is a stage that all actors dream of. Zhang Ziyi also said excitedly: "Being able to be on the red carpet of three major international first-level film festivals is like a dream."

To be honest, at this moment, Zhang Ziyi's true innermost feelings were revealed. At this moment, she did not hide the ambition in her heart at all. This is the burning ambition of an actress who does not want to be outdone by others, giving her the motivation to move forward.

At this time, Ye Ming was also very cooperative and showed a surprised expression and said: "Well, the relationship is good, then I congratulate Director Zhang for being able to shine at the Berlin Film Festival, and I will follow Director Zhang to get some light. ”

Zhang Yimou said with a smile: "You are not sincere in your words. Being able to go to Berlin is due to your own efforts. Otherwise, even if I give you a chance, you would not be able to go. After all, I also want to thank you. I also have a few friends on the judging panel, and they unabashedly praise your performance. You also have a great chance."

As an international director, he naturally has his own network of connections internationally. Although fraud is unlikely, Zhang Yimou still has the advantage of knowing the judges' attitudes in advance.

Therefore, at this time, Zhang Yimou even said that he was a little jealous of Ye Ming's luck. Of course, Zhang Yimou also had a good understanding of Ye Ming's acting skills. Those judges Zhang Yimou knew very well that if they could be tempted, it would not be an easy task in such a situation.

Because of the Berlin Film Festival, the relationship between the three people suddenly became a lot easier at this time. If you have a common topic, the relationship will become more harmonious.

At this time, Ye Ming was still a little unsure about what Zhang Yimou meant, but it could be seen that Zhang Yimou was hesitant to speak. It was not until Zhang Weiping walked in that things changed a little bit.

At this time, Zhang Weiping took a look at the atmosphere at the scene and asked unceremoniously: "Director Zhang, this is your fault. Could it be said that you haven't made the matter clear by now?"

Zhang Yimou's expression changed, and finally he said: "It's different who is the first. I don't think this is necessary."

Hearing this, Zhang Ziyi was obviously unhappy at the side, but she was a very smart person. Zhang knew that in front of Zhang Yimou, it was better for her to be obedient. If I can become famous and attend the Spring Festival Gala, I still have to say that it is because of Zhang Yimou's support.

But Zhang Weiping said a little rudely at this time: "What's the point of this? We are no longer outsiders with Ye Ming. Just say it directly and it will be over. Mr. Ye, we really have something to ask you this time." I want your help, but I don’t know if you can help.” Ye Ming knew that there was something going on here, but he said easily: “Mr. Zhang is joking. If you have anything to say, I will naturally help you.” Helped."

Zhang Weiping said very cheerfully: "Happy, I like to cooperate with happy people like Mr. Ye. In fact, we originally thought about letting Zhang Ziyi sing the opening song of the Spring Festival Gala, but unexpectedly Director Zhao said, you are the first As an opening singer, in this case, Zhang Ziyi can only be ranked second. As a senior, you sang the opening song last year and the year before that, can you give us this opportunity?"

The conversation had reached this point. At this moment, Zhang Yimou said, "Actually, we want to recommend Zhang Ziyi, but with you here, she can't be the first one."

Ye Ming shrugged his shoulders and said, "I can't control this, right? The Spring Festival Gala is not hosted by our family." Seeing that Ye Ming was a little loose, Zhang Weiping immediately said, "You don't have to worry about this, as long as it's If you nod, then we have a way to get Director Zhao to nod at times like this."
