"The first group, the first prize, "Mind Labyrinth", the jury believes that this is a classic that can leave a name in film history, please guide Xin."

The reason why I didn't look for award presenters was because it was unnecessary, which made everyone uncomfortable, after all, the director of a literary film is not much different from an ordinary director.

Let an eye-catching girl like Liu Xiaomei with a thin waist and long legs read it one by one, which is better than any guest award.

"It's not a joke, is it, really five million?" Xin Yukun, the director of "Labyrinth of the Mind", didn't quite believe that he had won the award after he came up, and openly questioned it.

"Yes, five million." In the face of such a stunned inquiry, Liu Xiaomei did not despise or be impatient at all, and nodded very solemnly and seriously.

"This money...... It's a bit of a shame that I made a movie, and it only cost me a total of two million. "He was smashed by the money.

The audience burst into a good-natured laugh.

Throughout last year's literary films, "Labyrinth of the Mind" is an unavoidable classic.

Its script is extremely strong, with a dark humor similar to that of a Coen Brothers movie.

Some say it's the best domestic suspense movie of the year, and there isn't one of them.

Some people even said that it was the best mainland cinema film of the year.

In short, Kleist gave it the greatest affirmation, it was the first group, that is, the first place in the release group, with a prize of five million.

"Thank you, crab crab, here, I want to publicly force the palace, I have a new film, it probably needs more than 10 million, and now there are five million here, and there are still 10 million left, can Kleist vote for me?"

Sure enough, he is a literary film director, and this brain circuit is different from ordinary people.

Also, if it's the same, how can a classic like "Mind Labyrinth" be made.

At this time, everyone's eyes were on Du Qixi.

Du Qixi made an OK gesture to the stage, which made Director Qi Yukun almost faint with joy.

Any literary film director has a dream of letting Kleist invest.

Kleist is the dream girl of literary film directors.

The reason is very simple, Kleist only collects money from domestic theaters, at most plus an online broadcast right, and the online broadcast right is not taken for nothing, it will give some money.

A huge source of income for literary films is actually Guo Jia's subsidy, as well as film festival subsidies or something.

Kleist didn't take a penny of this money.

For example, "Labyrinth of the Mind", with a production cost of two million, was not spent on publicity because it was included in Kleist's free distribution plan.

Its box office was 10.65 million.

Kleist earned 1.72 million, while Qi Yukun earned more than 200 outside the box office, more than Kleist.

This is also the reason why he only needs to find another 10 million to make his next movie with a budget of 17 million.

"Next is the second group, the third prize "Kailash", the jury believes that this film interprets the beauty of a faith with simplicity and unpretentiousness, and invites Director Zhang."

The film uses a pseudo-documentary technique to focus on the Tibetan pilgrimage path.

In fact, it was screened at the Rotterdam Film Festival in September last year.

But because it has not been released in China, it is classified into the second group, that is, there has been a finished film, but it has not yet been released.

After Director Zhang came up, he also sighed: "We were still discussing it not long ago, it's really not good, let's just release it like this, whether it's good or not, what the audience says, it's not that the wine is not afraid of deep alleys, in fact, it's all poor, now it's okay, with these two million, we can also do a publicity or something." ”

"Director Zhang, we Kleist have a free distribution plan for literary films." Liu Xiaomei reminded beside him.

"Didn't you invest in it?" Director Zhang estimates that he has been filming this documentary for the past two years, and he really can't keep up with the times.

"It's all okay, but there are certain quality requirements, Director Zhang, your film won the third prize in the second group, and there is naturally no problem in terms of quality." Liu Xiaomei's responsibility, in addition to hosting, is also to promote Kleist, and to a certain extent enhance everyone's impression of Kleist.

"Haha, it can still be like this."

Then I didn't say anything about the testimonial, and just trotted down with the trophy and check.

"Then, next is the second prize of the second group, "Happy Funeral", the jury believes that this film is calm and passionless, but it can make people feel like they are at the bottom of the sea at the end, deep and suffocating, and it is a director Zhang, please direct Zhang Tao."

This Director Zhang's image and temperament are much better.

In fact, in 2012, he was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama as a graduate student in film theory and practice in the Department of Film and Television, and he is a real academic intellectual.

"There may not be many people who know me as a person, and even fewer people know my movie estimates, I am cheeky to take the film to participate in the selection, I hope that more people will see my movie, not to make people laugh, not to make people wake up to it, as long as I can watch it once, I will be satisfied, "Kailash" I have understood, let me rank in front of him, I feel deeply uneasy, I will work harder in the future, thank you, thank you for everything."

And then it went down.

His movie is actually quite shocking, and the jury once intended to rank it as the first in the second group, but after comprehensive consideration, I still chose another one.

"The second group, the first prize, "Roadside Picnic", the jury believes that this is an incomparable, master-level work, the whole film is like a lyric poem, soft as water and radiant, it is one of the best Chinese art film debuts, please Director Bi Qian."

This movie has actually been bought by Du Qixi for 20 million, distributed and released by Kleist, and so on.

However, awarding the first prize to this film is definitely not for the sake of film publicity and hype.

In fact, Kleist, for his part, did not interfere in the jury's selection activities.

A group of literary film directors, not to mention that all of them are arrogant, at least the bottom line of art is several grades higher than that of ordinary people, otherwise, why would they have to toss literary films when they die and live.

Such people can't be bought.

The reason why they ranked Bi Gan's film first in the second group was really just because everyone admired him so much.

"Thank you, thank you to the jury, I spent 500,000 yuan to shoot this movie, Kleist bought it, gave me 20 million, and now sent me another 5 million, I don't know what to say, slowly, I myself believe that this is a masterpiece," Bi Qian first made a joke, and then said humbly: "I hope everyone doesn't have infinite exaltation of this movie, it is a movie, and there is still a lot to improve, if I am really such a genius, I wouldn't have been in the industry for seven years before making such a movie. ”

Whether it is artistic affirmation or economic affirmation, he is indeed full of gratitude to Kleist.

He didn't have the money to release "Roadside Picnic", 500,000 yuan was his family's foundation, and he borrowed a lot from his girlfriend.

Kleist bought him for 20 million and made him an instant multi-millionaire.

On the last day of 2015, he and his girlfriend held a wedding, and Du Qixi took his girlfriend to Guizhou to attend the wedding in person, and gave a big red envelope.

"I hope that Director Bi will be able to shoot more classics in the future, and the next is the selection of the third group, which must be explained here ......" Liu Xiaomei explained about the works of this group.

The third group is for films that have not yet been made.

This kind of film is often just a script or an original work, or even just an idea, and the director's expression is formed into a project.

You didn't even shoot it, so it was very difficult to judge.

Fortunately, everyone is the most professional person in the industry, and the good and the bad can still be distinguished.

Unlike several other groups, any project that wins an award in this group can receive an investment from Kleist in addition to the prize money.

That's what you mean by this project, we voted for it.

Of course, this is not mandatory, if you don't accept Kleist's investment, you can find someone else after taking the bonus, or simply use the bonus trick to shoot it yourself.

"Then, I will continue to announce the three winners of the third group, and the third prize winner is "August", directed by Zhang Xiaolei."

Zhang Xiaolei is a post-80s generation, very young - of course, a little older than Bi Gan, who is 89 years old, and he is 82 years old.

The rookie director grew up in the compound of the Inner Mongolia Film Factory. High school began to end rock music, and in his sophomore year of high school, he also formed a GRUNGE-style rock band with his classmates and independently produced an underground album.

At the age of 16, he was admitted to the directing department of St. Petersburg State Film and Television University.

After graduating from university, he returned to his hometown and took part in some crew work, during which he not only shot some short films, but also worked on wedding events.

For the film "August", he has been preparing and writing the script since 08.

During this period, he co-directed the feature film "Rats" with Kwok Kar-leung and composed the soundtrack for the film, and also co-directed the micro-film "The Oath" with Luo Wei.

This time, he listened to his friends talk about the night of meow food culture, so he sent the script directly.

Then the Meow Food Culture Night sent him a reply letter and invited him to participate in the selection.

Although it is only the third place, there is really nothing unsatisfying about getting the award just by relying on the script and getting the investment opportunity from Kleist.

"The third group, the second prize, "Twenty-two", this film has actually received Kleist's investment, but the jury thinks that this is a film that is very worthy of everyone's recognition, so it was decided to award the award to him, and asked Guo Ke, the director who created "Thirty-Two".

Guo Ke is the second time he has received investment from Kleist.

Therefore, the words of gratitude are gushing.

"The third group, the first prize, "Love in the Cherry Blossoms", invites young director Hu Bai!"
