Chapter 560: Export to domestic sales!
During this period, Li Youzhi was busy creating opportunities for "Parasite" to compete in the Olympics. Domestic entertainment netizens felt quite bad.
What does this feeling feel like? If I have to make a metaphor, it’s like a loving couple who can’t give birth to a baby. They ordered a spicy crayfish in the evening and it didn’t have any spicy or numbing properties. The thirsty otaku asked for a cup. I found that there were no stockings in the stockings milk tea, but it was all tea...
He was so anxious that he couldn't exert himself!
Now, after seeing the news that Li Youzhi just posted, saying that he is about to participate in the Berlin Film Festival, the Leziren netizens who have been anxious for several weeks are excited!
"I'm sorry, I haven't won many awards before. I thought he was not interested in film awards or anything like that. I bet he was just waiting to get older!"
"I haven't even seen the feature film of "Parasite" yet. I've just started the international film festival to have fun, 555555. It feels like my wife I've never met is going to participate in a beauty pageant, @ Listen to the advice brother Li Youzhi, brother, please give me some resources and let us watch the full-length film of "Parasite"! The gun version is also fine, and the raw meat version is fine!"
"Hahahaha, you upstairs are trying to make me laugh to death. It's the first time I've seen a film director asking for resources. Stop your wanton behavior!"
"A bunch of idiots, they are just talking nonsense here! I'm asking for the opinions of us music lovers now, okay? @李你志, I would like to advise you that in international exhibitions like the Berlin Film Festival, winning awards is secondary. The main thing is to give people Films and filmmakers gain exposure, so it doesn’t matter whether they win awards or not, the key is to make money!”
"What I said before is right. I strongly recommend that I take good care of myself and make a splash at the film festival. Hold the audience and amaze the world!"

Standing on the street in front of the TKTK headquarters building in Los Angeles, Li Youzhi smacked his lips as he looked at the comment section where his hands were trembling.
No, after all this time, you guys are still making the same old mistakes.
Why did Brother Zhi post a post asking for advice?
It’s not to point you in the direction, but to provide methods!
Is Brother Zhi not willing to shine at the film festival or show off on the international stage?
Brother, what are you thinking about?
But how to show off, how to shine, you guys can show me the way!
What I want is an executable method. The method is Baga duck meat!
With one hundred and eighty resentments towards the fun people, Li Youzhi took a deep breath and parachuted directly into the comment area;
[So here comes the question, friends, what exactly should you do to shine at the Berlin Film Festival and hlod the whole audience? Mengxin participated in an international film exhibition for the first time, sincerely looking for ways...]
As Li Youzhi airborne, the already boiling atmosphere in the comment area instantly exploded!
"Hahahaha, I'm still a little brother. Even though I have become an international superstar now, I still haven't forgotten my roots! I know humbly to ask for advice from our knowledgeable and philanthropic shareholders. Very good, you must keep this state! Then look back To answer your question, how can I shine at the film festival? hlod everyone...downstairs, tell him!"
"What the hell are you doing in front of me? I've asked you to pretend, let the brothers do the work, right? Fortunately, I know how to solve this question. The important exposure is the red carpet, but it is not easy to shine on the red carpet in Berlin where a group of international movie stars and celebrities gather. Let me say, let's not go for the big-name sponsorship and high-end dress route. Let’s give him a slanted look... I strongly recommend that I wear a Northeastern flower outfit and walk on the red carpet! It’s trendy to the extreme, let’s give foreigners something that will make them eye-catching!”
"Beautiful! The Heilongjiang netizen in front of you is going to give it to me! Although I listen to the advice, please don't try to persuade me everywhere! I'm going to participate in the Berlin Film Festival. Is the Northeast Flower like that? Is that like that? It's like that. ?"
"That's right! This time, my brother is representing us Chinese filmmakers and all of us musicians at the Berlin Film Festival. How is it appropriate to wear Northeastern flowers on the red carpet? This is not international at all, not city at all! Brother, you just Listen to me, when you get to Berlin, wear Ultraman COS! When you go on the red carpet, will the reporters and fans be obsessed with you? Don’t hesitate, let’s become light, Gaia! "
"Hahahahahaha! Ultraman is okay, it opens up my mind! But let's just say, Ultraman COS is international, and it's true that it's a city, but Ultraman COS has no face! I want to be real Wearing an Ultraman leather jacket on the red carpet, who knew it was a little brother? I would say, brother, you are a cosplayer like Tarzan. Show off your strong chest and abdominal muscles by wearing a small leopard print leather skirt. ~With your figure and good looks...suck it, suck it~ How many foreign sluts are you going to kill?"
"That little sister in front of me, is this bead on my face yours? It's broken into my flesh..."
Beep!

"..."
Li Youzhi was completely speechless as he watched the comment area boiling like hot water and the netizens frantically throwing out bad ideas.
Protruding!
Are you going to die or not? Brother Kui Zhi really thought you could give some reliable advice.
Do you want to see what you are talking about?
The big flower in the Northeast, forget about Ultraman, and Tarzan, is this ridiculous?
The film festival has a dress code!
Brother Zhi can still understand if he doesn’t wear formal clothes, why don’t you wear some leopard print pants? You guys are really not afraid of Brother Zhi’s death, right?
Brother Zhi finally figured it out. You guys are so determined that you want Brother Zhi to make a fool of himself in front of foreigners, Baga duck meat!
All rubbish tasks should be folded!
…
Directly muting and blocking a group of netizens who were not serious fun people, Li Youzhi returned to the hotel.
With the official premiere of "Parasite", the crew members, including Tu Susu and Liu Meng, who have completed the filming tasks, have returned to China first.
Now that the premiere is finished and Xu Haonian and Xu Haonian have agreed on the next operation plan for "Parasite", Li Youzhi is on his way home.
Saying goodbye to Wang Hui and Subona who were left in Los Angeles to deal with the aftermath, they crossed several time zones and after more than ten hours of long journey, Li Youzhi finally returned to the land where he was born and raised.
During this time, there has been constant commotion with "Parasite", and the family is really worried about Li Youzhi. In particular, several teachers at the Agricultural University were worried about Li Youzhi taking Heguang Tongchen's friends abroad.
During the filming, Wang Mingqi and Chen Delu wanted to make 800 phone calls a day. Why don’t you get into any conflicts with local unscrupulous people? Why should you pay attention to safety when facing the gun-toting law enforcement officers in the United States? Be strict with yourself and don’t touch contraband that is not allowed in the country. Don’t mess around. If you have to have sex in a relationship between men and women, please pay attention to safety measures...
The two children are going to college away from home, and the mother is thinking wildly at home!
So when they learned that Li Youzhi had returned to China, Wang Mingqi and Chen Delu drove to Shanghai in person. After getting off the plane, Li Youzhi was dragged into the car by these two "mothers".
On the way back to Chengdu, while Li Youzhi was listening patiently to Wang Mingqi and Chen Delu's chatter, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
"Teacher, let me answer the phone."
Sitting in the back seat, Li Youzhi saw Wang Xintian's number on the caller ID on his mobile phone. He begged for mercy from the two division commanders in the front row and answered the call as if he was amnesty.
"Hello Wang Ju!"
Facing Li Youzhi's crisp greeting, Wang Xintian on the other side of the phone chuckled;
"Okay, okay, Xiaozhi, have you returned to China?"
"Wang Ju, how did you know I was back?"
"Do you still need to ask? Our film bureau was originally planning to hold a symposium on Waguang Audio-Visual's last quarter's revenue these days, but your director Chen said that he didn't have time these days because he had to pick up the news for you. , I’m just waiting for him to pick you up and come to the capital for a meeting!”
ha,
Hearing Wang Xintian's complaint, Li Youzhi glanced at the back of Chen Delu's head and laughed.
"Director Wang, you blame me for this. If I hadn't worried about our dean by not staying abroad, he wouldn't have been able to delay his work and come to criticize me. I'll finish my work here and go to the capital with our dean Chen. I’ll give you a report.”
"You really need to give your boy a good education!"
Regarding Li Youzhi's rhetoric, Wang Xintian laughed and scolded;
"Look at the "Parasite" you filmed. It's a good story, but it turns out to be LGBT, and it's a mess of homophobic characters. It's all about American political correctness. What's going on in the world these days? Colleagues discuss your movie, and the unanimous opinion is that the story is indeed a good story, and the movie is indeed a good movie, but there are too many elements that make it uncomfortable to watch. The comrades in the review department have been talking to me these days. I have complained several times, saying that if you make a movie like this, it won’t be reviewed by domestic agencies!”
Ha ha,
Li Youzhi couldn't help but smile when he heard Wang Xintian's complaints on the other end of the phone.
The movie "Parasite" is not meant for domestic audiences at all... Isn't this book originally intended to unite the LGBT community and ethnic minorities in the United States to compete for the Oscars...
Thinking this, Li Youzhi chuckled;
"Wang Ju, aren't we doing this to put some pressure on the Oscar jury? You also know what American society is like now. If I don't work hard, as a Chinese filmmaker like me, Oscar will be a real success." Don’t let us pass!”
Of course Wang Xintian knew what was going on with Li Youzhi.
Previously, the application for "Buried Alive" to be shortlisted was rejected by the Oscar jury, and he personally received the emails. He even has a more direct understanding of the arrogance and prejudice of the Oscar jury than Li Youzhi.
"Okay, let's not talk about this matter. I called you mainly because I wanted to tell you about the movie "Parasite". In any case, "Parasite" currently has a high influence in the United States and overseas. , I heard that you want to take this film to the Berlin Film Festival again.
I don't care what you plan to do with this film, your identity is here. The works made by Chinese filmmakers have been released in the United States, and have decided to compete for awards at the Berlin Film Festival and the Oscars. If they are not promoted and released in China, it will be embarrassing for our Film Bureau.
So, you have time to re-edit "Parasite" when you come back this time. Edit out those LGBTQ-related parts, and then have your Dean Chen send it directly to the review department. Don't go through the normal domestic review process, just get the version number as an imported film, and release it in China before you attend the Berlin Film Festival.
Then I have already talked to the Film Channel Production Center. You will go to Berlin in a while, and you will attend the Oscars in February. The "World Film Gallery" program team will do a follow-up report throughout the process. Please cooperate. "
Puff,
After hearing Wang Xintian's arrangement for "Parasite" on the other end of the phone, Li Youzhi couldn't help but choked on his own saliva.
Good fellow, this is really good fellow,
Re-edit "Parasite" and then go through the review process of imported films to release it in China,
This is definitely export-to-domestic sales!
