Chapter 379: Long Time No See

"Won the 78th Cannes Palme d'Or, and the best picture was ...... "Steel Heart". ”

With the cheers of the audience, Lu Ze simply wiped the water stains on the cherries, threw them into his mouth and chewed, while Mickey picked up the remote control and tuned the TV to other channels.

In a blink of an eye, the time has come to May, and the awards ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival was held yesterday, but because the crew went to the Lionheart Bar to relieve their alcohol addiction after the holiday, all the corpses were lying down last night, and they did not watch the live broadcast, so they could only watch the replay this morning, and take stock of the award-winning guests who won Cannes yesterday, as for "Effect", there was no competition.

Because the three major European film festivals are all commercial in nature, all of them are founded by corporate consortia, not by the state, resulting in the three parties already have a competitive relationship, taking the Berlin Film Festival as an example, it is to block the Cannes Film Festival, the Golden Bear Award is held from June and July every year to February every year.

And there is an unwritten rule among the three parties, that is, even if an award-winning film is brilliant, it cannot be voted for the other two film festivals, and it will not be nominated if it is voted for.

The jury preferences of the other three film festivals are also very different, such as the Venice Film Festival, which is the oldest, prefers more avant-garde, avant-garde, artistic, and innovative films, the Cannes Film Festival likes films that coexist with commercial and literary arts, and finally the Berlin Film Festival, which has a soft spot for films that depict social and political nature.

Nowadays, the Cannes Film Festival has achieved its own commercial nature to the extreme, so the Cannes Film Festival is the most popular of the three major film festivals, and it stands to reason that if "Effect" wins the Cannes Film Festival award, it will play the greatest role in promoting the fame of "Effect" and generating follow-up revenue.

But having said that, it is precisely because the current Cannes Film Festival has tilted the balance between business and literature that "The Effect", a film that uses no movement and no subjective consciousness in the whole film, is not popular in today's Cannes, and the nomination should be, but the award is a bit hanging, so after Mickey's multi-faceted consideration, it was finally voted for Berlin.

Although the Golden Bear Award is still not given to him......

In short, the Palme d'Or has come to an end, and the filming of "Death" is not over, although the process of the script has reached the middle and late stages, but there will be a large number of main supporting roles in the later stage of filming, and at that time, it is really difficult to interpret this drama.

"It's time, hurry up, hurry up. ”

Mickey turned off the TV and threw the remote control on the table, perhaps because of excitement, the strength was not mastered well, and the battery was thrown out of a section when he was thrown on the table, of course, the sealing of the back cover of the normal remote control is still good, and the reason why the battery can be dropped out has a lot to do with Lucas sitting on the remote control a few days ago.

The other three were not as excited as Mickey, looking at Mickey who was beating like a monkey, he reluctantly put his phone in his pocket and slowly got up, by the way, now all four are wearing red Liverpool jerseys, and Lucas is still carrying a big flag.

Yes, on the crew's day off, they will travel to Anfield for the first time to watch Liverpool take on Arsenal at home.

Although Liverpool and Arsenal are not at odds, Mitch is still very excited, after all, the Premier League will have a "long" break in June and start a summer transfer, which may be the last time Mitch sees the existing squad this year.

And Lu Ze and the three of them are very bland, after all, Lu Ze doesn't particularly like football, and there is no such thing as a home team, and the brothers Lucas and Kesha themselves only watch the Russian Premier League, and among the Premier League teams, they only have a good impression of Chelsea, but they are not as hostile to Liverpool as Chelsea fans in the UK, and this Liverpool jersey is still forced by Mickey for the three of them to wear.

Having said that, this is the first time Lu Ze has gone to the scene to watch the games of the five major leagues, after all, he came to the UK to work, and basically has no time for entertainment.

Mickey showed four season tickets that had changed hands, and because the security and volunteers were acquaintances, and Mickey himself was a well-known figure, the four of them entered the stands without any problems, and after buying beer, they blended into the most enthusiastic fan base.

Watching football on the spot and watching football on TV are completely two different things, and the emotions on the scene can infect everyone, even those who don't know anything about football will be like this, Lu Ze and the four of them wore Liverpool towels around their necks, and they jumped to sweat at noon with the most fanatical fans.

You can feel the vibration of the stands, your ears are full of cheers and singing, the only fly in the ointment is that when the players play, Lu Ze only knows a few players, or I hear Mickey often remember, he can only be a fish in troubled waters, and when everyone shouts the player's surname, he is embarrassed.

He understands the basic rules of football, and the battle between the two giants is also back and forth, full of ornamentation, and then led by Mickey, a fanatical fan, the four of them shouted hoarsely.

The first half of the game was tied at 1-1 with both sides scoring and the second half was more intense, and although there were no clashes, the Premier League's wide open and closed style of play was still blood-pumping.

In the 81st minute, Arsenal committed a foul and the referee awarded Liverpool a well-placed free-kick, which was eventually scored by Trent Alexander-Arnold.

This cheer like a volcanic eruption finally made Lu Ze realize the charm of football, everyone jumped like crazy people, expressing their excitement, and the whole stadium was boiling, like a red flower in bloom.

But at this moment, the mobile phone vibrated in his trouser pocket, interrupting Lu Ze's excited thinking, glanced at the caller ID, said hello to the three of them, he walked out of the stands, found a remote location, and connected the phone.

"Teacher Chen. ”

"Lu Ze, are you busy?"

Although Chen Yongbin is the president of the Huaxia Drama Academy and has a large number of reputations and titles, his life is not as luxurious as ordinary people imagine.

Perhaps a little different from other old people, the Taishi chair is Huanghuali's, and this tree is in his yard, and the yard is in the second ring of the imperial capital, nothing more.

"I'm not busy, I'm just watching the game, it may be a little noisy, Mr. Chen, don't be surprised. ”

"Ah, let's make a long story short, don't delay too long, do you have time these days? Come to the imperial capital, it's time to do the affairs of the Electricity Association, come back to make a presentation, have a meeting, and then it's time to study which department you enter. ”

Of course, Lu Ze knew what Chen Yongbin was calling him, and now he was a little excited, and he felt his pocket and smoked a cigarette to calm down, but he realized that although there was no one nearby, in order to avoid going to the police station to squat for a few days, Lu Ze still gave up this idea.

"I understand Mr. Chen, then I will leave today, and I will probably be there the morning after tomorrow. ”

After converting the time difference at home and abroad, as well as the time to catch up on sleep, Lu Ze gave a specific time, and now he has booked the latest flight on his mobile phone.

"If there is something, don't be so anxious, it should be yours, that's yours, okay, call me again when you get to the imperial capital, it's too late on our side, I should go to bed." ”

"Teacher Chen, you rest early, this matter is ...... Thank you. ”

"We'll talk about that then. ”

The other party hung up the phone, Lu Ze let out a sigh of relief, waved his fist lightly, thought for a while, and dialed another call.

"Hey, I said, why did you remember to call me, a busy man, and you're going back home?"

"Come on, I'll pick me up on today's flight, and I'll be thinking about staying with you for two days. ”

Lu Er Ming'er is coming to our house for two days, don't forget to go to the supermarket tomorrow to buy some seafood, don't buy shrimp, I don't like to eat...... Alright, see you tomorrow. ”

The second call was hung up, and cheers rang out in the stadium at this moment, thinking that the game was over, and not long after waiting at the entrance of the stands, the brothers Mitch and Mendeleev walked out, and the four left the stadium after the four of them, at this time Lu Ze planned to inform Mitch that he was going back to China.

"I'm in a bit of a hurry today, I have to go back to China, and I guess I'll be back in about a week. ”

Walking to the bus stop, the three of them stopped and looked at Lu Ze with a puzzled expression, not only domestic directors will taboo actors to leave the group, but also abroad, for this kind of thing that may have an impact on the performance status of actors, all directors hate it.

"What's wrong?"

"There's something to do, I'm in a hurry. ”

"Can you not go?"

"If I promise someone, I have to go there, and this matter is very important to me. ”

"Then go early and come back early, don't affect the state, otherwise I won't let you go next time I hug your thigh. ”

As a good buddy and a shareholder who takes dry shares, although Lu Ze did not disclose what the specific matter was, he said that it was very important, and Mickey should not stop him.

Although rationally Mickey doesn't want Lu Ze to leave, Yu Gong, which will disrupt the filming rhythm of the crew and affect the state of the actors, but Yu Private, he can't open his mouth to refuse, so many things can't be clearly distinguished.

When the group returned home, Mitch and the Mendeleev brothers discussed how to change the filming process and squeeze out Lu Ze's footage for the week as much as possible, while Lu Ze returned to the room and began to pack his luggage, and when it was time to leave, Mickey offered to send Lu Ze to the airport.

When Lu Ze entered the airport, he did not turn around and leave, but waited until Lu Ze's flight took off, and he watched the plane break through the clouds, and then rubbed his hair in distress.

"Why can't you just open your mouth!!"

……

In the imperial capital, at nine o'clock in the morning, the plane landed at the airport.

He didn't notify Song Guiyuan to pick him up, it was estimated that Lao Song was still sleeping during the big weekend, so he stopped a taxi casually, and after reporting the name of the old Song community, he closed his eyes and rested.

The old Song family is far away from the airport, and he needs to pass by Chang'an Avenue and walk a little further east, perhaps because the things of the Electricity Association make him too excited, resulting in jet lag, he can't sleep, and when he looks sideways at the surrounding street scene, he suddenly found that he has been here, just behind Chang'an Street, there is a very familiar villa area.

"Master, please stop here. ”

After paying the fare, he walked slowly to the villa area, standing at the door a little distracted, now he wanted to see an old man, but he didn't know if she was at home.

It is not easy for people to live in this villa area, and the security is naturally very strong, even if Lu Ze shows his face and registers with his ID card, he still needs the consent of the head of the household to enter.

dialed the internal phone, Lu Ze gave the phone to the security after a few simple words, and the security gave Lu Ze permission to let him enter the antique villa complex of this Chinese-style building.

Following the slightly vague memory, he kept walking towards the path in his memory, fortunately his memory was better, otherwise he would have lost his way on the forked bridge of this artificial lake.

When he actually arrived at the place, he saw a woman standing at the door, quietly wiping her tears, and when the woman found him, the two of them ran towards each other at the same time, and the distance was getting closer and closer, until the two faced each other, hugged each other, and gently patted each other's backs, and she opened her mouth a little choked.

"Aze, you've gained a little weight......"

"Maybe I've eaten too much lately and exercised less, it's time to lose weight, it's been a long time, Aunt Han ......"
