Chapter 493

"Xiao Ming, Uncle might break his promise this time." Wei Ping'an suddenly said apologetically.

Originally, it was said that he would accompany Xizi to Hong Kong first, stay for a few days to let the child adapt, and then let Brother Jiefang replace him, and let Wei Jiefang take the child in Hong Kong for more than a month of filming.

And his main purpose in going to Hong Kong was to see Lao Gui. Some things have to be asked clearly in the end.

"However, there is still some work in Fang Zheng, and I can't leave people here, so I can only wait a few days before going. You say this, this."

Uncle Ping'an cannot go, and Lao Wei cannot go for the time being. He has to return to his hometown to fulfill his duties as a primary school principal.

Wei Ming said: "It doesn't matter, isn't there me and Xiao Hong? Oh, Gong Xue is also going to Hong Kong. With her, Xizi will definitely be very happy."

"Oh, Comrade Gong Xue is also going." Wei Ping'an and his brother and sister-in-law looked at each other, and the three showed a mysterious smile.

Then it's fine, Wei Ping'an said: "When the time comes, I will go to Hong Kong with your father."

After confirming Wei Ming's study abroad, he had to go through some procedures. During this period, *The Spring of the Sheep Class* was popular in major cities across the country, and its popularity was comparable to *Once Upon a Time in China* and *Shaolin Temple*. Even during the day on weekdays, it was full.

In order to let more cinemas show it and more audiences watch it, the bicycle chains of the film runners were about to break. Now it seems that 404 copies are very reluctant.

Film critics such as Zhong Dianfei praised *The Spring of the Sheep Class* in relevant film magazines for bringing Chinese cinema into a new era, and after watching the film three times, wrote a detailed film review, analyzing and affirming the film from many aspects such as technical means, story connotation, photography, art, music, etc.

Many senior film fans watched the film and then watched the film review by Zhong Dianfei, and then watched the film twice or three times. They only felt that the more they watched, the more they had, and discovered many details that they hadn't noticed before. It is worthy of being a god-level work that won the championship at the most influential film festival in the world.

Even if they are not film fans, ordinary audiences can get great enjoyment from the screen, performance, and music. It belongs to a film without viewing threshold and with great viewing pleasure.

Xie Jin didn't watch it three times. He was busy preparing for *Wreaths at the Foot of the Mountain* and took time to watch it once. This one time made him sigh "the younger generation is formidable", and expressed to the people around him that if he let himself film it, he would definitely not film it as well as Wei Ming: "He was right not to give this story to me at the beginning."

The appearance of this film also made Xie Jin more cautious about *Wreaths at the Foot of the Mountain* in his hands. He hoped to promote the quality of Chinese-language films with Wei Ming.

And this can only rely on him and the Shanghai Er Yingchang, which is not enough. He has to seek the support of the army and treat the filming of this film as a hard battle.

In Shaanxi, the *Life* crew of the Xi'an Er Yingchang has already started filming, but when they learned that *The Spring of the Sheep Class* was released, Director Wu Tianming still took all the staff to watch a show at the nearest screening point.

Because the decision was made in a hurry, after communicating with the cinema, they could only sit on the steps or stand behind the screening hall to watch.

This is also the first time Zhang Yimou has watched this international award-winning blockbuster where he served as the chief photographer. It is even better than he imagined. After all, there was no such wonderful soundtrack when filming, and the plot and soundtrack were perfectly integrated, and many editing techniques also inspired him deeply.

After watching the film, Director Wu Tianming touched him: "Just wait for the Golden Rooster Award nomination next year."

The wrinkles on Zhang Yimou's face stretched out. Is it really possible? This is his first time as a photographer.

Wu Tianming added: "Plus our *Life*, and your classmate Chen Kaige's *Yellow Earth*, it is estimated that you can be nominated for the next two years, and winning the award is also unpredictable."

The small flame in Zhang Yimou's heart suddenly jumped up. He suddenly thought of what Wei Ming said to him: Lao Zhang, I think you might not be able to become an excellent director.

If he can really win the Golden Rooster Best Photography, and then propose to transform into a director to the Xi'an Er Yingchang, will it be easier?

There are many parents with children in this audience. After the film ended, the children applauded spontaneously.

At this moment, Zhang Yimou is more determined to be a director like Wei Ming who makes people applaud spontaneously.

As the production director of this film, Han Sanping is also sincerely proud. This is also his most shiny qualification so far.

His advanced studies at the Film Academy have ended, and he is going back to the Emei Er Yingchang. After returning, he should be able to be reused and promoted.

Before leaving, he hosted a dinner for Wei Ming, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, Feng Xiaoning, Ge You, Xizi and other main creators of the film. Li Baotian was not there. He had already taken the film *Human, Ghost, Love* and found a rural troupe to experience life.

Several people, as the main creators of the film, raised their glasses together to celebrate the success of the film. The adults drank alcohol, and Xizi drank Beibingyang.

Learning that Wei Ming was about to take Xizi to Hong Kong to film, and it was the male lead, Feng Xiaogang was busy and enthusiastic: "Teacher Xi, don't forget us when you are popular in Hong Kong. Don't forget us when you are rich!"

Xizi waved his little hand: "We are all brothers."

Wei Ming patted his head: "No size."

Ge You laughed: "Eh, can't say that. Xizi is a brother with you, and you are also a peer with us, so it's no problem to be brothers."

Feng Xiaoning also laughed: "Yes, yes, no problem."

Chen Kaige joked about Ge You: "I see you are also no problem."

Ge You hurriedly smoothed his not-so-rich hair: "Go, go, go, poke my heart again."

Both of them grew up in the Beijing Er Yingchang courtyard since childhood. Chen Kaige was five years older, and Ge You had to call him Brother Kaige.

After the joke, everyone was very curious about what story Wei Ming filmed in that project in Hong Kong.

Wei Ming explained to them that it was a special family comedy for Christmas.

He added: "This movie is also DreamWorks'."

Hearing that it was DreamWorks again, Han Sanping paid attention. Even if this DreamWorks is not Wei Ming's, it is estimated that it is closely related to him. Basically, no matter how much money he spends, the other side has no opinion.

"Director Wei, if there is a chance for co-production in the future, can you introduce this DreamWorks to cooperate with our Emei Er Yingchang."

Wei Ming laughed: "Yes, but the country's co-production projects are relatively limited every year. It is not easy for Emei Er Yingchang to strive for it. If you can become the director of Beijing Er Yingchang in the future, maybe there will be more opportunities for cooperation."

Hearing Wei Ming say this, Han Sanping, who didn't even become the director of Emei Er Yingchang, kept shouting: "Don't dare to think, don't dare to think."

Chen Kaige also didn't take it seriously. Beijing Er Yingchang is the head of the country's film studios. Han Sanping, although he is left and right, his family is also an official, but he is from Sichuan, how can it be his turn.

He would rather support Zhuangzhuang to take over, and then transfer himself to Beijing Er Yingchang to be a commander.

After drinking to the end, everyone chatted about gossip. Feng Xiaogang started it, talking about that grandson surnamed Zhu.

Originally, he was caught last year. The plot is considered very serious, but he was closed for more than half a year without trial or judgment. As a result, after the sensational cases in Zhongneimeng and Tangshan last month, he was officially prosecuted at the end of last month.

Wei Ming knows that once this case is taken seriously, the trial and execution will be fast. Sentenced that month, killed that month, buried that month.

In his previous life, Wei Ming was so emotional when he saw the news in the newspaper: Sure enough, it is a new society and a new era, princes break the law and are punished the same as commoners.

However, after he had a certain status, he began to long for the existence of privileges.

People, none of them want to eat bitterness, but all want to be people above people.

After eating this meal, Wei Ming rode a bicycle to take Xizi home. Tomorrow they also have to set off, by plane.

On the way, Xizi also told Wei Ming about his classmates watching *The Spring of the Sheep Class*.

"At that time, there were children from other schools. When they came out after watching, they surrounded me. Before they called me Little Gourd, now they call me Pipi."

Wei Ming laughed: "This shows that the role you played is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In the future, someone may call you Ah Bin."

The male lead of *Home Alone* is named Ah Bin. His grades are not very clear, but he is very naughty. The four brothers and sisters are very troubled by him. He is a problem child in the family. Teacher Xi has already begun to study the script for his next role, pinyin version.

At the beginning of the release of *The Spring of the Sheep Class*, many primary and secondary schools in the country had not yet had summer vacation. Because this is a film that brings glory to the motherland, after the final exam and before the holiday, many urban primary and secondary schools like Peking University Affiliated Primary School organized collective viewing. Wei Ming didn't expect that his first film would get this treatment.

However, the domestic box office has nothing to do with him. Anyway, his copyright has already made a lot of money. He now wants to see how this film performs in foreign countries, especially the two major markets of the US and Japan.

From the communication between Melinda and Tokuma Shoten and Amblin, Tokuma Shoten is still doing dubbing work, preparing to release it in September, October, and November after the lively summer file.

And Amblin has no intention of dubbing, directly using DreamWorks' English subtitles, and they plan to release it on a small scale in December, and then carry out award-winning public relations, and expand the scale of release in the awards season.

Wei Ming directly brought Xizi to the Overseas Chinese Apartment. His luggage had already been brought over, and he would set off directly from here tomorrow.

Wei Ming also asked Li Zhi to send a fax in the name of Hong Kong DreamWorks to Hu Weili, inviting him to work for a period of time. Hu Weili wants to resign and apply for immigration, so there are many procedures to go through, not so fast.

In Tuanjiehu, Seeing Biaozi asked his mother to take his daughter to sleep tonight. He was saying goodbye to Yanzi for the last time.

This muscle stick of nearly two hundred pounds was crushing and pressing on her body. Even a martial arts practitioner like Huang Jiaoyan could only bear it.

However, they were about to separate, and she was also very wild.

Seeing Biaozi's mother in the next room pricked up her ears with curiosity. This, this won't be pregnant with a second child? The country does not advocate it now.

The country also does not advocate a man having two girlfriends.

Tonight Zhu Lin is sleeping with Gong Xue in Nanluoguxiang.

However, the nights with only the two of them always feel boring and boring, wasting such a big bed.

Early the next morning, Zhu Lin helped Gong Xue pack up and sent her to the entrance of the alley, not going to the airport, so as not to attract attention.

Zhu Lin sighed: "I don't know when the three of us will be together next time."

At Capital International Airport, Wei Ming arrived first with Wei Hong and Wei Xi, then Hu Weili, Seeing Biaozi, and finally saw Gong Xue.

Although she arrived last, the time was enough. Xizi rushed over to be intimate with Snow Mother for the first time. Xiao Hong and Seeing Biaozi also greeted Gong Xue. Hu Weili needed Wei Ming to introduce him on his behalf.

There were six of them in total, and their seats were close together, so they wouldn't be lonely on the way.

Hu Weili entered the working state directly, thinking about talking to Wei Ming about what the script was written about. He is now pondering what style of soundtrack should be used.

It just so happened that Xizi was also studying the script, so Wei Ming let him and Hu Weili sit together, and the old and the young studied the script together.

And while waiting for the flight, Wei Hong took out the Nintendo handheld. Seeing Biaozi was very greedy, so Wei Ming let Seeing Biaozi sit with Xiao Hong, and they could learn from each other's experience of playing game consoles.

"Is there no game that compares boxing and martial arts?" Seeing Biaozi put forward his own insights.

Wei Hong said without looking sideways: "Later I will take you to tell Little Aunt, they are developing new games."

Wei Ming naturally sat with Sister Xue, but he couldn't be too excessive. There were so many people in the car, so many pairs of eyes.
