Chapter 955 My name is Tong Guaiguai! (Three more ask for monthly pass!)

  The itinerary of the film festival is confirmed, and Li Shixin's time will be much easier next.

  In fact, the film festival is still divided into how to play.

  As the top celebrity show in the entertainment industry, if you want to use the film festival to increase its popularity, the entire ten-day film festival needs to do too much.

  The easiest way is to get some explosive news on the media day, or simply go to the red carpet and not come down-these are the upper-level methods used by some domestic Internet celebrities or 18-tier starlets.

  But for Li Shixin, who has already had three shortlisted films, this approach is still too low.

  As a well-known artist who participates in the film festival with an open mind, as long as there is exposure and achievement on the media day, the opening ceremony and the award ceremony, this wave is basically stable.

  After all, there are only a dozen filmmakers in the domestic finalists of the Berlin Film Festival this time.

  Even if you don’t do anything, everyone will be a fan of domestic entertainment media.

  Actually, the attitude of the domestic film and television circles towards the three major European film festivals has always been quite ambiguous.

  Because of the relationship between culture and ideology, Chinese-language films have really won awards at the three major European film festivals. Even if there is, it is not a big prize.

  For example, the Berlin Film Festival. Since the 1980s, only a few Chinese directors have won the jury awards, or the cutting edge, the silver bear. The real Golden Bear Award, Palme d'Or in Cannes, has not been won by a domestic director in this time and space.

  As a big country with a rising economy, both movie fans and officials in the country hope to have one or two outstanding Chinese works that will be able to brush up their reputation in the world.

  So for the filmmakers who can be shortlisted, the domestic media has always reported relatively high expectations and exposure.

  In the hotel, a group of old fans and teenagers are still working hard to adapt to the jet lag.

  After getting off the plane last night, everyone almost stayed up all night. When Li Shixin got up in the morning, Liu Feng and others just fell asleep.

   did not disturb everyone, Li Shixin took advantage of his free time to come to the venue of the film festival-BERLINALEPALAST in the center of Berlin, which is the legendary movie palace.

  Berlin Film Palace can be said to be a dream place that countless fans dream of. This prosperous area in the city center is usually a theater dedicated to musicals. Only the two weeks in February and March each year will it change and become the focus of attention of filmmakers and fans all over the world.

  The 328 films that participated in the festival this time, except for a few second-level units, most of the screenings will take place here.

  Only one day before the film festival kicks off. At this time, a considerable number of tourists have gathered near the Cinema Palace.

  Looking at the tourists in the square in front of the Cinema Palace, who had different skin tones, or queued to buy tickets or stopped to take pictures, Li Shixin took a deep breath.

Fuck.

  Old man, there is finally such a day when he can come here as a shadow man!

  What is this called?

  This is called a daughter-in-law for many years, and she will soon become a mother-in-law!

   said to himself cruelly in his heart, Li Shixin was silent in tears.

  But at this moment, amidst the noisy surroundings of tourists, an intermittent sound of guzheng penetrated his ears.

   "Oh Huh?"

  In a country full of foreign races, Li Shixin was refreshed when he heard the sound of Guzheng indifferently.

  Whether people are lonely or not, they will inevitably be kind when they meet their compatriots in a foreign land.

  Following the sound, Li Shixin pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the source of the sound.

  When he got closer, he found a small world.

  In the open space behind the movie palace, a row of street artists are performing hard there.

  This street art form is relatively rare in China because of the excessive urban management, but it is available in every city abroad. Most of them are down-and-coming musicians or music majors who perform in tourist attractions and business districts with a large number of tourists to earn extra money, or to improve themselves.

The   Small Square has all kinds of performances, some with guitars, solo violinists, and even the whole band moved out to sing to the tourists.

  In a remote corner of the small square, a veiled girl dressed in a Chinese-style red skirt is sitting on a horse, elegantly swaying the guzheng in front of her.

  Judging from Li Shixin's just stepping into the king-level guzheng performance level, the girl should be a professional background. The song "A Laugh from the Sea" was played by her skillful **** technique, which was extraordinarily free and easy.

  From the pitch of the song and the emotions mixed in the zither, the song should have been carefully prepared and practiced for a long time.

   But at this time, compared to other street performers’ “booths”, not many people stopped in front of her to watch.

   stood there and listened quietly, until the girl's song ended, and only a passing white lady stopped and looked for a moment.

  Ke is just that moment, after seeing the girl's tunes, the woman threw two copper coins into the guzheng box in front of the girl and left in a hurry.

   Seeing the girl nodded slightly and expressed her gratitude to the woman, she didn't mean to play another song for a long time, so Li Shixin raised her brows and walked up.

  When Li Shixin arrived at the girl, the girl had already put away the guzheng.

   "Girl, you play very well. Why don't you keep playing?"

"what?"

   seemed to be surprised by the accent that suddenly sounded in this foreign country. With Li Shixin's greeting, the girl who was packing her things and preparing to leave was taken aback.

   Seeing Li Shixin, who was dressed in a pure black turtleneck sweater and a casual suit, looked capable and pure, the girl smiled in surprise.

   "Lord letter?"

  Yo!

   This time it was Li Shixin’s turn to surprise.

  As an artist, what is the happiest thing?

  Of course, it has its own fans in any corner of the earth!

   "Girl, come to the film festival?"

"No no!"

  Seeing Li Shixin, the girl was obviously a little excited. Regardless of packing up the guzheng, he got up and walked to Li Shixin. As he looked at it, the phoenix eyes exposed on the veil showed a bit of shyness;

   "I went to school here! I have been here for more than two years."

   "Yo!"

  When I heard that the girl in front of me was an international student, Li Shixin was happy: "A foreign student? A music student?"

  When it comes to her academic problems, the girl is not ashamed, she raised her face and smiled: "Yeah! At the Hans Eisler Conservatory, the piano is taught."

   "Piano?"

  Hearing the girl's studies, Li Shixin slightly stretched out his finger in shock and pointed at the guzheng that had not had time to put away.

   "Then this."

   "Hey, this is a hobby."

  The girl became shy again, stomped her feet with some annoyance, and grabbed the hair bun behind her head.

   "I have been practicing piano since I was four years old, but when I was in junior high school, I became obsessed with guzheng. At that time, my mother was afraid of delaying piano lessons and would not let me learn."

   "So after entering the university and leaving home, I picked up my interest?"

  Li Shixin asked with a smile.

  He used to ask so casually, but when he didn't want to face this problem, the girl got serious.

  Two pretty brows were frowned together, and the girl sighed.

  "Not really, I am still very utilitarian in learning Guzheng. There are four departments in our college, covering more than 30 music bachelor's majors and more than 20 master's majors from piccolo to vocal music.

  Most of the colleges are students from Europe, and I am an Asian student. So many classmates were very curious about me. In the semester I just started, people always asked me: You have so few Chinese students studying music in the West, so is your domestic music particularly scarce?

  I was very angry at the time! I explained to them over and over again and introduced our national musical instruments. But things like the flute and the flute, they only think of things that imitate Western orchestras. After thinking about it for a long time, I bought Guzheng and mailed it in China. The sound range of this thing is large, and the style of playing has its own characteristics. They would never say that it is like a harp or something."

  Looking at the girl's distressed and serious look, Li Shixin was happy.

   "So you learn Guzheng to prove to your classmates that China has its own music?"

"no."

The girl shook her head gently, but then nodded seriously: "I did think so at the beginning, but later I found out that they were not interested in listening to my explanations and popular science. Or they I don’t care at all, because internationally, the mainstream music is still Western music based on orchestral piano. So I also wanted to open it later. They didn’t understand it because they hadn’t heard it at all. Then I happened to be here again. , Just play it for them."

  Speaking of this, the girl pointed to her guzheng.

"Hey, if someone listens to me, I will tell them that this is a Chinese musical instrument called Guzheng. As long as enough people understand it, people here will one day know that China also has our own national music and national musical instruments. Yeah."

  Looking at the girl's serious and persistent look, Li Shixin's smile became serious.

   "What's the girl's name?"

  He stretched out his right hand.

"what!"

   Seeing Li Shixin's proactive hand, the girl noticed that she still had a veil on her face.

  She took off her veil in a panic, revealing a white and delicate face.

   "I, my name is Tong Guaiguai!"

   grinned, the girl showed two little tiger teeth.
