Directors can also start companies.

Directors can also directly sign contracts with actors. This model has become very mature in later generations. When it comes to this, Wu Di is not sleepy.

This model was already quite mature in the era when Wu Di traveled through time. It can be said that Wu Di was very experienced.

Now, with experience and funds at the same time, Wu Di wants to open a company, and Zhang Feng also supports it. When other directors open companies, they do it to promote themselves.

It's different for our boss Wu. We have a dear wife here, why don't we quickly get the local materials?

The husband opens a company and the wife produces works. Isn’t this a new type of cooperation?

From this point of view, everything is ready now, all we need is the east wind!

Since being blown away by Zhang Feng, good things have happened one after another for Wu Di.

Rematch!

Maze has really entered the semi-finals of the Water City Film Festival!

One step closer to winning the prize!

Everything looked so perfect, however, director Xiao Qi was not so happy.

"Why did they remove you?"

"Boss Wu, I think you are the soul of my movie. Without you, how could this movie achieve such quality? But they rejected you!"

"I don't accept it!"

"I want to appeal!"

After all, Xiao Qi was still too young to think that the so-called appeal channel was real and effective, not just a show-off.

Boss Wu, who was tragically kicked out, earnestly comforted him and said: "This is not a big deal. What we need to ensure now is that the movie can be shortlisted. We don't need to pay too much attention to other things."

"Of course it would be better to be nominated, but if not, don't be too frustrated. You are still a newcomer, do you still want to win all the nominations?"

"I was fighting for you, but you actually comforted me in return. I really deserve you."

As I said, Wu Di was certainly the one who suffered the most and was the most disappointed when he was exonerated. However, people always have to be willing to give up.

Just as they planned before, this time Maze applied for the Water City Film Festival, but applied for several projects.

As the most famous actor in the film and the first starring role, Wu Di naturally also signed up for the solo award.

In fact, this is not because he feels too good about himself, but because of the strict requirements of the system. In line with the principle of increasing the probability of winning prizes, Wu Di has swept through all the projects that can be registered and are eligible for registration.

Xiao Qi was also actively encouraged to add a few other technical awards that could be applied for.

Well, give him a little more cover for his shamelessness.

As for Xiao Qi, is it easy to get a recommendation from Lao Zhang when he is new here? I don’t know if I will have such an opportunity in the future. Maybe next time I will have to blaze a trail on my own.

Again, of course I am doing my best to build my resume.

If you can, please do so. What if you catch something?

In the end, someone did catch something, but unfortunately, it wasn't Boss Wu.

Boss Wu is still able to calmly comfort Xiao Qi and say nice words, of course because he is still nominated for Best Director.

This is the only single seedling!

There is absolutely no room for error!

"I've told you a long time ago, don't be too nervous, and don't be too persistent about certain things. Although it seems that there are fewer nominations for the award now, in the long run, maybe the chance of winning the award will be better.

It’s high, isn’t it?”

"Perhaps the big bosses on the jury felt that you had a higher chance of winning the Best Director award, so they eliminated another important award."

"You can't put all your eggs in the same basket, you know the truth."

"Really?" Xiao Qi's voice was full of excitement, and he was about to lose control.

"Of course I can't guarantee this. I'm not on the jury, but I can only say that the possibility is very high."

Best Director?

Is it really me?

Can I win a prize?

Developed!

After that, Xiao Qi couldn't listen to a word Wu Di said. It was not important, not important at all.

There was only one thought left in his mind at this moment.

That is the youngest best director in the three major film festivals in the history of domestic entertainment, and he is about to be born!

It’s him, Xiao Qi!

Huh?

Why is he, Xiao Qi, the youngest?

Has he forgotten that Wu Di, who is the co-director, is still two years younger than him?

Putting this aside for the moment, if the disappointment is greater or the hope is greater, I will say it to comfort Xiao Qi.

Boss Wu was heartbroken over losing the nomination for Best Actor.

That's a carrot pit!

A carrot pit corresponds to a prize. Of course, the more opportunities, the better. Who would think there are too few of such a good thing?

such a pity!

The judges didn't even give him a chance, which proves that they are blind! It's not that Wu Di is not good enough!

This is of course, a high-quality film that can compete for Best Picture, as the absolute central protagonist, how can it not be performed well?

Moreover, the movie "Labyrinth" is originally a type with few characters and a relatively compact plot. It is definitely not a group drama.

Therefore, the quality of the movie can be said to be directly linked to the performance of Wu Di, the leading actor. It is absolutely inseparable.

Since I think the quality of the movie is very good, but the leading actor like Wu Di, who takes the most credit, is excluded, I am a little confused.

People are somewhat vain, and Wu Di is certainly no exception.

What's more, it is normal to look at the height of a mountain.

At the beginning, it was Wu Di's idea to drag Maze to participate in the three major universities, and it had nothing to do with anyone else.

It can be said that the existence of Maze today is the result of Wu Di's efforts.

My thinking at the time was that as long as I could get a nomination, it would be enough to win an award, which far exceeded my expectations.

But later, Wu Di realized that for him, entering the Shuicheng Film Festival was a desperate act that put everything on the line.

You see, Wu Di's current situation can be described as a dilemma.

Originally, if it had not been shortlisted for Water City, perhaps it could have been turned around and submitted to other general A-level film festivals, and by piecing together, there would probably be something suitable.

But now, since I have been shortlisted in Shuicheng, I can only wait for the results of Shuicheng and cannot go to other film festivals.

This is the so-called dilemma. Now, in Shuicheng, they can only fight against the odds!

Although Wu Di probably left all the chores of establishing the company to Da Fei to handle, Boss Wu almost became the boss just by sitting down.

But, even so, during this period of time, he was still very busy.

There are certainly reasons, and they are quite sufficient.

You see, Shuicheng is competing for awards, and the selection results of the College Student Film Festival are about to be announced.

Although this is not an international category A award, Boss Wu, who signed up for the competition for the first time, was still very nervous.

If you can win an award at the College Student Film Festival, it will be considered recognized by the industry.

It will be quite beneficial to future career development.

what? What?

You said, the director is Xiao Qi, even if you Wu Di wins the award, it will be of no great use?

Since he is neither able to complete the task nor is he a genuine director, few people in the industry would think that the filming of Labyrinth has any serious connection with Boss Wu.

Everyone will think that it is Xiao Qi's contribution.

As for a serious directing graduate, why would he share his brainchild with an actor like Wu Di?

Who knows about this kind of thing?

Maybe there is some ulterior deal behind it.

However, Boss Wu naturally does not hold the same ideas as them. He is a trendy figure who has traveled from the future. Many things are far more far-sighted than people at that time.

What happened to the actor?

If you act and direct well, can't you?

Don’t you see, old Mr. Chen, remember that when his main job was an actor, his acting skills were also very poor.
