Many people were persuaded by him that they participated in the film festival to win awards, and they are also A-class film festivals, although the latter two are not as dick as Venice, but they are also awesome!

The most important thing is that the probability of winning the award will be higher, which is very beneficial to the improvement of the film, and it really makes everyone excited.

If it weren't for the fact that this movie was made by Chen Mubai, he was afraid that he would be almost convinced, of course this is impossible.

"Buried Alive" was a foreign film in its previous life, not Chinese.

Therefore, in terms of expression and story structure, it is more in line with foreign methods.

Even if he made a localized revision, it was only a change in content, and the rest of the changes were not much, and if he went to the Venice Film Festival, it would not be unsmooth due to cultural reasons.

There are several other important reasons why the Venice Film Festival was chosen.

The first point is the time of the event, this year's Venice Film Festival will be held on July 22, and it will be held soon, and there will be a last train at this time.

Different from the rules on the earth in the previous life, the entries must be produced one year after the production can participate in the three major film festivals, and the rule here is that the film will be released one month before the event, so if Chen Mubai is willing to participate, the time is just to catch the last tail!

The second point is that the Magic City Film Festival can't be held in time, this film festival started on June 15th, and today it's the 13th, and it's too late for the works to participate, and the release date has been closed.

The Tokyo Film Festival is not as influential as the Magic City Film Festival, and this film festival is held from October to November of the next year, which is too long.

Except for the three major film festivals, which require the film to premiere at the festival and cannot participate in the rest of the film festivals, the rest of the film festivals do not have this requirement.

Due to the vigorous development of the cultural industry in China and the encouragement of cultural exchanges between foreign culture and China, the Magic City Film Festival is getting better and better, and many excellent works have appeared, and many foreign films will come all the way to participate in the competition.

However, the Modu Film Festival seems to be moving closer to the three major film festivals in order to improve its qualifications, and this policy will be implemented in the past two years, but the specific requirements have not yet been announced.

Because the Magic City Film Festival is held in China, it is also beneficial to be regarded as an international film festival in China.

If it is really closer to the three major film festivals, it is that there is a very important rule that the film cannot be shown outside the country.

Huaxia movies are fine, they can still participate in film festivals if they are released in China, which is also one of the local benefits.

Chen Mubai explained: "The time of the A-category film festival is inconsistent, if you wait for the Tokyo Film Festival, the time is too long, and the audience's memory is not so long. ”

After all, "Buried Alive" is a movie that has just been promoted, and if it is withdrawn to participate in the Venice Film Festival this time, this topic will also cause turmoil, especially after the film festival is a month later, the topic and the popularity of the movie will not be missing, and it can also gain the attention of some netizens.

Anyway, Huaxia has entries to go to the film festival, or the three major European film festivals, as a Huaxia person, many people will support Chen Mubai and hope that he can win the award.

This is not only the glory of Chen Mubai alone, but also the glory of the country.

Naturally, people are more supportive of locals than foreigners.

"Moreover, the name of the Tokyo Film Festival is not as loud as the Venice Film Festival, and the gold content of the awards is still fundamentally different. ”

These words made Chen Yunteng and others nod in agreement, there are only a handful of directors and works that can win awards at the three major European film festivals, and all of them are big directors and internationally renowned.

But the winners of the Tokyo Film Festival are much less well-known, not at a level.

This itself has something to do with the name of the festival, and another reason is that the Tokyo Film Festival has a requirement that the directors of the participating films must be talents who have only made 3 or fewer films, and are committed to discovering new directors.

Compared with other film festivals, which are all well-known directors fighting, this is much simpler, there must be a gap between the films made by newcomers and the works of old and powerful well-known directors!

"Besides, I went to the Venice Film Festival first, and if I didn't win an award, I could still go to the Tokyo Film Festival again, and there was no conflict. Chen Mubai smiled and said the main reason.

"yes!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they almost forgot about this rule.

The Venice Film Festival requires the premiere of the participating films at the festival, but the Tokyo Film Festival is not!

So this is completely achievable, not a blind choice, and there is one more alternative, even if the Venice Film Festival does not win the award, it can be regarded as experiencing the baptism of the film festival, just go through the motions and increase the experience.

This kind of thing is done by many producers, and it can be regarded as a "mixed" film festival.

This is the case at the Magic City Film Festival, where the film was eliminated at other film festivals, but then came to the Magic City Film Festival to continue to participate, and won the highest award, the Golden Goblet Award!

It is also because of this, coupled with the fact that the status of the Magic Capital Film Festival has improved a lot in recent years, so Huaxia wants to reform and want to get rid of this kind of thing.

Like the three major film festivals in Europe, films can only choose one of them to participate, and once they are eliminated, there is no second chance.

Therefore, this is also a test for the filmmaker.

The selection rules of the three major film festivals are slightly different, it depends on how the film chooses itself, and some film genres may not be suitable for the selection taste of this film festival, but it will meet the other.

If you choose the wrong film festival to participate, you won't regret it, and you may even miss the award~

Another reason why Chen Mubai chose the Venice Film Festival is that the selection of the Venice Film Festival has its own unique taste, that is, artistry.

The slogan of the Venice Film Festival is to improve the artistry of cinema, to encourage the filming of films with new forms and unique techniques, to be accepted as long as they are innovative, even if they are flawed, and their motto is "Cinema at the service of serious art".

Everyone suddenly ignited their confidence again, and even fantasized that if they won an award at the Venice Film Festival, wouldn't it be a surprise!

"I think it's okay to do this, and when the film schedule is locked, it's very likely to break the shackles by taking a detour through the film festival. Chen Yunteng's attitude immediately changed, and he was very supportive of Chen Mubai's decision.

""Buried Alive" is indeed not a conventional film, this style is really in line with the selection taste of the Venice Film Festival, I don't think there will be no chance of nomination, and even win some awards!"

Qian Duoduo gave everyone a sigh of relief, which can be regarded as chicken soup.

The rest of the people were also persuaded by Chen Mubai, after all, one more chance to participate in the film festival, and the chance of winning the award is greater.

As for the quality of the movie, although they haven't seen it, they are not worried, Chen Mubai's ability is very reassuring to them, after all, Chen Mubai can surprise them every time, they are used to it.

"With a one-month deadline, time is running out to pick up a film, so you have to hurry. Qian Duoduo said: "Don't miss the time, then you won't be sent to the competition!"

He is a serious communication university background, and he knows a lot about the film and television industry, so he naturally knows the rules of these film festivals.

"Well, I'll go to Mr. Luo for help. Chen Mubai said: "I will fly to Xiangjiang in person, and then hand over the film to him and let him register for the competition for me." ”

Although there is still a month to go, who knows how many films will be reviewed by the film festival's review team at this time, in case there are too many pieces and the review misses the time, he will not be able to participate in the Venice Film Festival!

Chen Mubai didn't want to encounter this kind of thing at this juncture, it was better to be on the safe side, and ask Luo Fan to help, just as he owed him a favor.

Now that the plan has been decided, everyone is not confused, and there are many things that should be done, and we must take action at this time.

Chen Mubai looked at Lu Fang and said, "Brother Lu, you contact the theater chain and tell them that we will withdraw the file." ”

Then, he turned his head to look at Qian Duoduo and continued: "Duoduo, your father has helped us, please go and say, by the way, apologize to the theater." ”

It doesn't matter if the seven major theaters are directed, after all, they are aimed at him, he just needs to tell the other party to withdraw the file.

But Qian Hui launched a relationship so that some theaters added more films of "Buried Alive", this part of the theater line is very good, Chen Mubai suddenly withdrew at this time, and many people still have to express their attitude.

After all, the other party may have already prepared the time for the movie schedule, and he suddenly withdrew the file, and the other party had to re-plan.

When the work was done, the meeting was over, and everyone went about their business.

Qian Duoduo still has to continue to promote "Let's Get Married", and there are many announcements to run.

This drama is currently on the air, and in a few days, the ratings have risen steadily, and it is about to surpass "Beiping War".

Chen Mubai called Luo Fan again.

"Mr. Luo, hello, we discussed it and decided to participate in the Venice Film Festival. Chen Mubai said flatly.

"You made a decision so quickly?" Luo Fan was a little shocked.

It's only been an hour since he gave Chen Mubai advice, and such a major decision has been decided?

The release and withdrawal of a movie is not a trivial matter, especially if it is withdrawn to participate in the film festival, it is a big deal, and it is a big deal to be able to make a decision in such a short period of time, Mubai Entertainment is a little decisive!

In other words, Chen Mubai is very powerful, and the people in the company also believe in him, so they are willing to support his decision-making.

"No problem, but I was a little surprised by you, I didn't expect you to choose to participate in this film festival, it was really shocking. Luo Fan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile.

"Then thank you Mr. Luo, I will immediately go to Xiangjiang to meet with you, and when the time comes, I will hand over the film to you, please help hand it over to the film festival official to speed up the review time." Chen Mubai thanked: "Time is a little tight, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up." ”

He explained the reason for asking Luo Fan for help.

"Okay, I'll do it for you. ”

"Thank you very much Mr. Luo, please take care of this matter, wait for me to invite you to dinner in Xiangjiang, I owe you a personal favor this time!" Chen Mubai sincerely thanked.

"You wrote a song for my movie before, and I can't help you with anything, it's just a simple thing, I should do it. Luo Fan pretended to be dissatisfied: "You must be a treat for me when you come to Xiangjiang, I am the host, if you don't give me a chance or don't treat me as a friend, I will be angry!"

"Okay, it's my mistake that I said, my fault, everything is up to your arrangement, Mr. Luo. Chen Mubai smiled dumbly.

Anyway, Luo Fan can promise to help him, it's really good, this person is okay.

asked him to act as an agent for the overseas market before, and he agreed, judging from the current situation, Luo Fan is a person who can make deep friends.

At least this kind of relationship of interest is very reliable, and everyone helps each other, which is much better than those who have hollowed out their hearts and wants to deal with you!

Luo Fan is also very happy, this incident is an opportunity, even if he and Chen Mubai are really hooked up at this moment, the two can be regarded as friends.

The icing on the cake is not as good as charcoal in the snow, although he did not help Chen Mubai in this matter, but his opinion was adopted, and Chen Mubai also needed a little help from him.

No matter how small the matter is, Luo Fan has done it, and that is enough.
