Xia Tian then called Ye Zhiming. After his confirmation, Xia Tian knew that Germany did not have a mature and developed public relations lobbying industry like the United States.

Even if there is a public relations company, it is generally only responsible for brand promotion, crisis management, marketing and other regular businesses. Lobbying judges and unconventional businesses such as public relations awards have never been involved.

After learning the news, Xia Tian understood that the way to lobby with public relations companies was basically considered a waste. If he wanted to win the award, he had to go on the battle himself.

After careful consideration, he was about to open a gap among the ten judges. It was very difficult for him to go to each judges one by one.

First, he is not familiar with the judges, and he doesn't even know each other, so it is not wise to go to lobby rashly. The judges have to watch dozens of movies and participate in various activities during the award ceremony. Time is very tight, and they have no time to let him have a good relationship one by one;

Second, there are as many as ten judges, each with their own tastes and personalities. If you don’t know the roots and bottom of it, it will be difficult to have a good relationship. Maybe it’s very likely that you will not say a word right, and it is very likely that you will turn against each other on the spot.

So if there is a judge who can serve as an insider, it will undoubtedly save time and reduce difficulty. In line with that sentence, fortresses are the easiest to break from the inside.

Among the ten judges, after selecting Xia Tian, ​​Roberto Benini was selected.

Roberto Bernini is an Italian national treasure director, actor and screenwriter. He was an actor and won the Italian Silver Ribbon Award. He directed his first film in 1983, and in 1997, he won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and the Cannes Film Festival Jury Award for "Beautiful Life", which reflects sodium atrocities. In 2008, he also won the French honorary Caesar Award.

Xia Tian chose him because he happened to have what Roberto Benini wanted, which was the script of "Beautiful Life".

"Beautiful Life" is a work written, directed and acted by Roberto Benini. It is adapted from his father's real experience in concentration camps that year. It has won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, Best Actor, Best Soundtrack, and many international awards.

It can be said that this work is crucial to Roberto Benini and is simply the best masterpiece in his life. Xia Tian believes that if he gave this script to Roberto Benini now, he would be ecstatic and moved. At that time, wouldn’t it be a natural thing to ask him to help lobby other judges?

...

After confirming the plan, Xia Tian first wrote a summary of the story of "Beautiful Life".

This classic movie ranked 34th in ImDB and fifth in Douban, he has watched more than once in his previous life. Every time he watches it, he is moved and his eyes are all wet. Therefore, when he writes the script outline, he is really like a flying pen, leaning on a horse, and the writing is completed quickly.

After writing the script outline, Xia Tian found out the room number of Roberto Benini's hotel, and he immediately sent someone to give him the summary. Xia Tian's contact information was also left on it. If he was interested in this script, he would naturally call Xia Tian.

Sure enough, less than an hour after the story was sent, Xia Tian received a call, "Hey?!"

"Hello, I'm Roberto Benini, I want to find Mr. Xia Tian." A man's voice came from the other side of the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Benini, I'm Xia Tian!" Xia Tian smiled slightly. Judging from the speed of Roberto Benini's call, it was obvious that he was still very satisfied with this story, otherwise he would not have called so quickly.

"..." Roberto Benini didn't expect that Xia Tian would answer the phone personally, and he was stunned. Then he smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Xia~"

"Hello." Xia Tian smiled, "Mr. Benini, you have received my story summary, right?"

"Yes, I received it." Roberto Benini nodded.

"What do you think? What do you think?" Xia Tian asked with a smile again.

"I have no objection. I think this story is very good. I am very looking forward to seeing its full version as soon as possible." Roberto Benini said quickly, with a sense of urgency in his tone.

"Is that so, thank you for your praise." Xia Tian smiled, "I also want to write it out as soon as possible and then invest in it to shoot it. Mr. Benini, I wonder if you are interested in participating in this work?"

"Of course, this is my honor," Roberto Benini said immediately, "and I really hope to direct this work."

"Why, let's make an appointment to have a good talk, how about it?" Xia Tian asked with a smile when he heard this.

"Yes, yes." Roberto Benini agreed without hesitation, and even couldn't wait.

Seeing that he was so anxious, Xia Tian knew that he would definitely eat him.

...

In the evening, a café in Berlin.

Come to Roberto Benini's invitation in the summer.

"Mr. Xia, I'm very happy to know you!" Roberto stood up happily when he saw Xia Tian.

"Mr. Benini, I'm very happy to know you," Xia Tian said with the same smile.

He has watched the drama "Beautiful Life" many times in his previous life, and he admires Roberto Benini's acting skills. To be honest, in his opinion, Roberto's acting skills can be ranked first in the world film industry. In particular, his comedy talent is very high and he is known as Chaplin in Italy.

"Mr. Xia, I have read your story. I like it very much. I want to direct and star in it. I hope you can promise me." Roberto Benini said straight to the point, without any detours.

"You can discuss it." Xia Tian smiled, "The reason why I sent this story to you is because I think you are competent for this drama."

"Thank you, thank you." Roberto Benini smiled happily when she heard this.

"Okay, then again, I have something to do and want to ask Mr. Benini for your help." Xia Tian smiled slightly again.

"Please say it." Roberto Benini asked immediately when he heard this.

"That's right. This year I brought a movie to the exhibition, called "The Big Red Lantern Hanging High". "Xia Tian smiled, "I hope Mr. Benini can take a look and help give some advice."

"..." Roberto Benini was stunned after hearing this.

Although Xia Tian was tactful and just helped to give some advice, the subtext was that he hoped he would vote for this movie. This was a bit difficult.

Benini has always been a little unfavorable to do such things. He is a purer person, loves movies and acting, and has also gained countless applause and honors from this.
