Chapter 1635: Two Stars s.h.i.+nes?

Pei Qians heart dropped.

Sh*t, the worst situation had happened.

He had not expected this movie to win the Golden Lion Award.

Pei Qian did not have much hope for this movie before. After all, he was the one who had thought of the idea of this movie. He only wanted to portray Tengda Corporation as a villain.

However, during the process of engraving, Zhu Xiaoce and Yu Fei, the two people in charge, each raised their own views and extended Boss Peis concept.

Pei Qian turned the idea of the movie and game over, and then began filming very rashly.

In the end, he did not expect that a movie that he had casually produced would really win the highest award of the international film festival.

That was ridiculous.

It might be the seventh time that domestic movies had won the Golden Lion Award. It was not a historical breakthrough, but it was also the first time that they had won the Golden Lion Award after five years.

The Venice Film Festival was more biased towards Asian movies than other film festivals. It also favored Chinese movies.

Thus, many Chinese film directors had received this honor before.

However, there seemed to be a gap in this award since 2007. Even the judges of the Venice Film Festival expressed their regrets about the decline of Chinese movies.

Therefore, the fact that the movie Future You Choose could win the Golden Lion Award was a huge encouragement to the domestic film industry.

On top of that, the fact that Lu Zhiyao was given the honor of being the best male actor was something worthy of being written about.

Lu Zhiyao had been working hard on his own path as the benchmark for acting as a male actor with the strength of a new generation. Many viewers had watched him grow with movies and witnessed his acting skills gradually become superb. They had also given him more attention and support.

The Venice Film Festival this time was naturally a win-win situation for Lu Zhiyao. He had reached the peak of his life.

What made Pei Qian speechless was Zhu Xiaoces speech on stage.

What did he mean by Boss Pei gave this movie spirit and flesh? It turned out that this movie was entirely my fault.

The key was that Zhu Xiaoces award speech at such an important event had given Boss Pei such a high status. It was hard for the netizens not to think.

It was conceivable that before long, discussions about this movie and the Venice Film Festival online would sweep over.

I havent even fu*king watched this movie, but Ive already won two huge prizes.

What do you mean?

Pei Qian felt hopeless. Pei Qian had many things to do during the filming period of this movie, so he did not pay much attention to it. After the filming and editing was complete, Zhu Xiaoce took the movie to partic.i.p.ate in the Venice Film Festival. Thus, Pei Qian did not pay much attention to it.

In the end, he did not even know what the h.e.l.l this movie was. The nightmare had come before he knew it. It was really a sad story.

Pei Qian responded to Zhu Xiaoce and Lu Zhiyaos good news very perfunctorily. Then, he began to check the netizens discussions.

Fei Huang Works.p.a.ce is awesome! The Golden Lion Award is a very valuable international award.

Thats right. Even though the Venice Film Festival favors Chinese movies, they must have relied on their own strength to win this award. Whats more, they obtained the Golden Lion Award and the Best Actor. This movie is very worth looking forward to.

When will it be released? Does anyone know what kind of movie it is?

Im not sure. The production team has done a good job of keeping it a secret.

The movies name is The Future You Choose. I think its a Cyberpunk theme.

Does the Cyberpunk theme feel similar to Tomorrow is Beautiful? Then why not film a sequel to Tomorrow is Beautiful?

Im not sure about that. However, based on the current situation, this movie should be better than Tomorrow is Beautiful. Everyone, you can look forward to it.

Director Zhu Xiaoce said in the award speech that Boss Pei gave this movie soul and flesh. I understand souls. I should say that the initial inspiration of this idea was what Boss Pei meant by giving flesh and blood?

It seems like some things in reality provided some details or improvements to the plot of this movie.

Is it related to the anti-Tengda alliance?

Its possible. After all, movie stories originate from reality but are higher than reality? Previously, the matter of the anti-Tengda Alliance was very intense. Its reasonable to take some materials and show some content in the movie.

Then this movie should be mocking the companies that are against Tengda Alliance. I wonder if I can see similar companies appear in the movie?

By the way, didnt they say that the movie My Property would be released soon? Didnt they partic.i.p.ate in the Venice Film Festival this time? If they partic.i.p.ated, they could at least get the best script or something. After all, the original script was too exciting.

I dont think he partic.i.p.ated. I dont know why. The situation of this movie is even more mysterious than The Future You Choose. Until now, almost no news has been leaked.

However, no matter what, this months film will be a gathering of heroes. Its worth looking forward to.

Netizens were discussing enthusiastically, looking forward to the release of the outstanding movie in the near future.

Pei Qian was very hurt.

If there was such attention, the box office of The Future You Choose would definitely not be low.

He could only hope that the movie would gradually open up and down and earn less box office.

Pei Qian realized that many people were also discussing another domestically-produced movie in the comments. It was called My Property. It seemed like many viewers had high hopes for this movie. After all, it was the cla.s.sic of a top sci-fi author in the country.

Many people called this months film schedule dual stars s.h.i.+ne. They would watch The Future You Choose and My Property to see who would win.

Pei Qian had not paid much attention to the movie My Property because this name did not seem to work.

Whats more, Pei Qian felt a little unlucky. Previously, he had been fighting with Fei Huang Works.p.a.ce. Every time he took a step, he would die. Even Hollywood blockbusters could not withstand his toxic milk, much less a small domestic movie.

The Future You Choose had already won the Golden Lion Award after all. Under such circ.u.mstances, it would be very difficult for an ordinary domestically-produced sci-fi film to shake it.

Pei Qian was resigned to his fate and could only wait silently.

According to the original plan, the game would be released in the second half of this month, and then the movie would be released.

After all, the release time of the game was relatively free. It would not hurt to adjust it. However, once the screening time of the movie was set, it could not be easily changed.

Pei Qian prayed silently. He only hoped that the game and movie would be good but not popular. It was fine if the reputation was higher, but he did not want to make too much money.

At the same time, in Shanghai.

Nie Yunsheng and Lu Xiaoping of Vinci Media were discussing in the conference room.

The Future You Choose had successfully obtained the Best Actor and the Best Film Award at the Venice Film Festival. Naturally, this news reached Nie Yunsheng and Lu Xiaopings ears immediately.

For various reasons, the film My Property did not partic.i.p.ate in the Venice Film Festival.

One of the reasons was that the director did not want to go.

This director was a very capable and unique director. He felt that the core of the story of My Property was still targeted at domestic audiences.

Even if he partic.i.p.ated in the film festival, his results would not be good. He would probably not be able to get any prizes. Thus, there was no need to struggle. All his energy was placed in China.

Lu Xiaoping also felt that this could cause a numbing effect on Boss Pei so that Boss Pei would not realize the danger that this movie posed.

Whats more, they had previously felt that it would probably be very difficult for the movie Future You Choose to win the Golden Lion Award. It would not matter if it only won a small award.

The situation was suddenly confusing.

Liu Xiaoping and Nie Mingsheng were a little nervous seeing that the screening period was almost over. After all, they knew that the success or failure of this movie would greatly affect their final strategy.

Boss Lu, what do you think about these two movies? Nie Yunsheng asked.

Lu Xiaoping did not panic. Instead, he said rather calmly, Boss Peis movie might have successfully obtained the Golden Lion Award and is a moderate danger to us, but I think the overall situation has not changed fundamentally.

Im very confident in the hard power of My Property. The Future that you chose might be able to win international prizes, but it might not be able to win in terms of the reputation and box office of domestic audiences.

Apart from that, there is another very important point.

The award that Boss Pei won this time has exposed a very important piece of information to us. If we can make good use of this, we might be able to find the key to winning.

Nie Yunsheng raised his eyebrows. Really? Please elaborate.

Lu Xiaoping explained, Director Zhu Xiaoce let it slip during the award ceremony.

He said that the real events that happened in reality gave flesh and blood to this movie. In other words, there are elements in some of the movies plot that directly derive from reality.

Coupled with the fact that this movie is a Cyberpunk theme, we can roughly guess something.

Nie Yunsheng was enlightened. Are you saying that this movie filmed many companies in the anti-Tengda Alliance and made a film about reality?

Lu Xiaoping nodded. Combined with the name of this movieThe Future You Choose, isnt this matter obvious?

Boss Pei is obviously treating this movie as an important part of the battle of public opinion against Tengda. This name is hinting to all netizens: Choosing Tengda is the right future.

In that case, in the movie, as Tengda Corporations enemy, we will naturally appear in a negative image.

Cant we do something about that?
