Outside the screening hall of "The Red Lantern Hangs High", many people lined up one after another, holding the brochure of the Venice Film Festival specially made for films, and there were many Asians here, including some RB, Bangzi and Xiangjiang and Wanwan media, as well as some film critics, journalists and film distributors from other countries.

Venice is an awards ceremony in the eyes of outsiders, but in the industry it is the second largest film trade fair in the world after Cannes.

In September, studios from all over the world gather here to scour the eye-catching titles.

Here, Wu Jianye is just a nameless person, so many people come here, one is out of curiosity about the mysterious China, China has just been reformed and opened up for a few years, and Huaxia at this time is synonymous with mystery in the eyes of many people, and they want to know what kind of movies made in this mysterious place are like.

And those film companies, naturally, also smell the smell of money, maybe Huaxia's movies are not so successful, but foreign audiences can learn about Huaxia through these movies, although there will be no unscientific things such as blockbuster sales, but Huaxia's movies are cheap, a few thousand dollars can be won, and if they work well, they can still earn more than 100,000 dollars.

"Wu Jianye, why have you never heard of such a director in Huaxia?" said a film critic with a pink media card to his companion next to him.

"Hehe, you seem to know how much a Chinese director you said!" said his companion disdainfully.

"Hmph, I at least know Bai Chen, his film also participated in the Venice Film Festival last year!"

"So what, it's not like I won a consolation prize, it's over, Huaxia's movies have just started, how much artistry can their movies have, the Bai Chen you said, I've seen his "Under the Bridge", that's all!"

chatting, the two easily walked into the screening hall amid the envy and jealousy of countless people queuing up and waiting to watch the movie.

An American reporter looked at his blue card and couldn't help but take a sip, "This damn media credential grading system, I really want to kick these Italians in the ass, without our report, who can know Venice!"

"Hey man, you're right, I've got your back!"

Harvey Weinstein, who had a meaty face, stood in front of him and said with a grin.

The American reporter looked at Harvey Weinstein and complained: "Harvey, what are you doing here, you can't buy movies in the United States, do you want to buy Chinese movies?"

Harvey laughed, then said meaningfully, "Maybe something unexpected will happen!"

The reporter was obviously familiar with Harvey, and looking at his expression, he immediately asked, "Harvey, we are old friends, do you have any inside information?"

The current Harvey, who is not as domineering as later generations, also needs the help of reporters, looks left and right, and whispers: "Cousins, I suggest you pay attention to the director of this movie for a while!"

Cousins picked up the brochure for "Raise the red lantern" and said, "What is there to focus on a director who has just directed his first film!"

Harvey smiled and didn't say anything more!

As for the reporter, although he thinks that Wu Jianye is just an ordinary Chinese director, he still remembers the character who can make Harvey Weinstein so specifically mentioned.

"Fine Snow" and "The Red Lantern Hangs High" were screened in the same theater, but "The Red Lantern Hangs High" was released first, which also shows Venice's attitude towards these two films, and the first to release it suffers.

After all, Wu Jianye's fame in the whole of Europe is zero, but Ichikawa Kun's fame is much higher than Wu Miya.

At this time, Ichikawa Kun came to the scene in advance with the four female protagonists in the play, as well as an RB person.

After Sun Jiarui saw Ichikawa Kun, he immediately put aside Wu Jianye and the others, and walked a few steps quickly to Ichikawa Kun: "Director Ichikawa is here in person, it really makes us shine!"

Ichikawa Kun said with a reserved smile: "It's all Asian films, we should support it, by the way, Sun Sang, let me introduce you to you, this is our RB director Nagisa Oshima, known as the 'Shochiku New Wave Standard-bearer' in our country, and also the judge of this Venice Film Festival!"

Nagisa Oshima is thin and wears a suit, but in the eyes of Wu Jianye in the distance, there is always a feeling of being a monkey.

"Sun Sang, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Sun Jiarui hurriedly smiled: "I have seen the movie directed by Oshima, it is very meaningful, and it is a rare boutique!"

"Sun Sang is so polite!" Nagisa Oshima chuckled, "By the way, I heard that the film in your country's exhibition this time is a film made by a new director, and Chinese films are also full of talents now!"

"Director Oshima is polite, we came here this time to learn from the experience, but I dare not say that there are many talents!"

"Haha, Sun Sang is polite!" said Nagisa Oshima with a laugh.

At this time, Sun Jiarui beckoned to Wu Jianye in the distance and asked him to come over.

Wu Jianye whispered to Grange Zhuang and walked over.

"Team Sun. ”

"Xiao Wu, let me introduce you, this is the director of RB Nagisa Oshima, and he is also the judge of Venice this time, he is your senior, you have to learn more from each other!" Although Sun Jiarui was not satisfied with Wu Jianye, it was impossible to put Wu Jianye aside at this time.

It's just that Wu Jianye listened to Sun Jiarui's introduction, and his heart began to make a mistake again, why was there such a person in that era who couldn't straighten his waist?

"Director Oshima!"

Wu Jianye naturally couldn't go away, but he just said hello to Nagisa Oshima without being humble or arrogant, and didn't say anything.

Sun Jiarui saw Wu Jianye like this, and an unhappy smile immediately appeared on his face: "Xiao Wu, what is your attitude, Director Nagisa Oshima is your senior, you should be respectful!"

Wu Jianye glanced at Sun Jiarui, he really didn't want to quarrel with Sun Jiarui here, after all, if he did this, it would be their entire Huaxia delegation that would be embarrassed.

"Old Wu!"

Fortunately, at this time, the voice of Rang Ning Ying suddenly came from afar.

Everyone looked at it, Sun Jiarui was the first to show a surprised expression, directly left everyone behind, and ran over: "Director Bertolucci, welcome, welcome, I didn't expect you to come in person!"

Bertolucci smiled: "I watched the movie "The Red Lantern Hangs High", it is very good, the metaphors and the use of color in it give people a bright feeling, this premiere, I also want to watch it again!"

Sun Jiarui bent down slightly and said with a smile: "It's really our honor to be appreciated by director Bertolucci!"

Seeing Ning Ying beckoning to herself, Wu Jianye walked over with a smile.

"Teacher, this is Wu Jianye, and "Hang the Red Lantern High" is his director's work!" Ning Ying introduced Bertolucci.

After Bertolucci saw Wu Jianye, he smiled happily: "I didn't expect you to be so young, Wu, I watched the movie "The Red Lantern Hangs High", and I like it very much!"

Wu Jianye smiled without humility or arrogance: "Thank you!"

As for why Bertolucci came here, Wu Jianye knew that the other party might really be interested in the movie "The Red Lantern Hangs High", but it should be more interested in the adaptation rights of "The Last Emperor".

It's just that Wu Jianye said before that he didn't want to affect the fairness of this selection, so he never went to see Bertolucci, and Bertolucci must have known, so this time he also came here on the occasion of the release of the movie "The Red Lantern Hangs High" in Venice.

Everyone chatted for a while, Wu Jianye glanced at the time, and said with a smile: "Everyone, the movie is about to be released, let's go into the screening hall to watch the movie!"

Cousins was already sitting in his place at this time, he looked left and right, and did not find the main creator of the movie, at this time he already had a lot of interest in the director of the film, he wanted to see if it was the one who allowed Harvey to tell himself.

When he saw Wu Jianye walking into the screening hall with Bertolucci and others, he was also surprised, he naturally knew Bertolucci, but he didn't expect Bertolucci to come here in person to stand up for this movie.

But then he gave up on Bertolucci, and his focus is now on directing "The Red Lantern Hangs High".

The first thing he saw was Sun Jiarui, after all, Sun Jiarui was the oldest in Huaxia, but he soon gave up, he had no impression of this person at all, and then Zhou Qiang next to Sun Jiarui.

Again, no impressions.

When he saw Wu Jianye, he finally showed a puzzled expression.

Something familiar!

Take a closer look.......

it!Kun!

I finally know why Harvey specifically mentioned the director of this movie, the name of Kun in the United States is not weak at all, the big hit of the "Jurassic Park" trilogy, not to mention for the time being, the rock album that has been on sale for a year is still in the top ten of the sales list in the United States.

It was listed in the second half of last year, and it dominated the list in the United States for half a year.

Now all record companies want to sign kun under their own names, and all public relations companies want to invite kun to the United States to hold a concert for him, it can be said that the hottest singer in the United States in the past two years is this kun.

No one would have thought that the writer, the singer Kun, who made the whole of Europe and the United States dream, turned out to be a director, and at the same time was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival, as long as the news is sent to the United States, it will definitely cause a sensation immediately!

Cousins felt his body tremble, and he thought Harvey had given him a sesame seed, but he didn't expect it to be a cart of watermelons.

This is a real scoop!

Thinking of this, Cousins still had the heart to watch the movie, and stumbled out of the screening room, he wanted to send this news back to the United States immediately, as for the content and comments of this movie, just copy the peers when the time comes!

Don't think that American journalists are as disciplined as they are.

They are also serving interests, how can they have a high level of discipline, otherwise how do you think the domestic paparazzi and the paparazzi in Xiangjiang came to be in the future, and they are not all foreign people.

The funny thing is that when many reports on culture and sports in later generations were sent back to China, domestic reporters and melon-eating people thought that this was the truth as if they had seen the holy decree.

I don't even have the simplest judgment of myself.

Cousins' departure, Harvey saw it in his eyes, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and it felt good to be owed!

.......

The camera begins!

Song Lian, played by Fang Shu, appeared in front of the camera.

The layman looks at the excitement, the insider looks at the doorway, just an opening, Bertolucci, Ichikawa Kun, and Nagisa Oshima saw the good of this movie.

Even though it's not the first time I've seen this movie, Bertolucci is still full of praise for the beginning of the movie, and this time he came to stand up for this movie in person, not just because Wu Jianye thought, Bertolucci came for "The Last Emperor".

At the same time, he himself likes this movie very much, whether it is the shooting techniques full of various metaphors or the use of color, it makes him feel bright.

"The profound meaning of the beginning, the symmetry in the shot, the use of tones, and the tears of the actress at the end all make the audience who is watching this movie for the first time full of anticipation!"

Bertolucci introduced Ning Ying next to him: "This classmate of yours is not simple!"

Ning Ying smiled lightly on the side: "When I watched this movie for the first time, I couldn't believe that it was shot by him, do you know how many difficulties a college student who has just graduated in our country needs to go through if he wants to direct a movie by himself!"

Bertolucci smiled: "Isn't the whole world the same?"

Ning Ying: "That's right!"

Domestic movies need to be ranked by seniority, while foreign countries want to make movies, they have to have capital investment, which is actually similar to the situation in China.

Like well-known big directors, there is naturally no shortage of investment, but some young directors who have just debuted want to make movies, and someone has to believe them.

The investment in a movie is not a small number.

"By the way, you may not know that the actors and actresses of this movie are behind the scenes, most of which are done by the students and teachers of our school, and when I chatted with them, I learned that this movie was originally an experimental film in our school!"

Ning Ying has been with Wu Jianye and others for the past two days, and she knows a lot of stories about this movie!

Bertolucci said in surprise: "Is it? Your school is not simple, when I go to Huaxia, I must visit your school." ”

Ning Ying smiled: "Okay, I'll be your guide for the teacher when the time comes!"

"By the way, teacher, do you want me to tell Lao Wu that you want to buy his idea of adapting the rights?" Ning Ying asked.

"In your opinion, will this classmate of yours take out the rights to adapt this film? After all, he is also a director now, I think he should want to make this film himself, right?" asked Bertolucci, a little worried.

Ning Ying thought for a moment and said: "It shouldn't be a big problem, I also read the book "The Last Emperor", it is not easy to shoot it, the investment will be very large, and it is impossible to allow such a huge investment in China!"

Bertolucci nodded, he was different from other foreigners, he knew a lot about Huaxia, so after Ning Ying said it, he thought that what Ning Ying said should be no problem!

"Okay, since this classmate of yours wants a fair result, let's give him a fair result, and then discuss this matter with him after the film festival is over!"

Ning Ying smiled: "Okay!"
