The day before the closing ceremony, Zhou Qiang found Wu Jianye again, and the Venice Film Festival notified the crew members of "Hang the Red Lantern High" to participate in the closing ceremony.

This is actually telling Wu Jianye and others that "The Red Lantern Hangs High" won the award, which is also the unspoken rule of the three major European film festivals, otherwise it would be embarrassing if the film won the award and the creators left Venice.

Tian Zhuangzhuang and the others gathered in Wu Jianye's room and looked very happy.

"This time, I want to see what those people can say after returning to China!" Zhao Fei couldn't help but shout.

In the past two days, because of Sun Jiarui's incident, everyone's mood is not very good, and it is a little heavier than the good mood when they first came to Venice.

Grange Zhuang came to Wu Jianye's side, showing a relieved expression.

"Okay, this time I can win the award, even if someone wants to deal with you after returning home, I should weigh it!"

In the past, China won awards at the three major European film festivals, and in Wu Jianye's memory, only "Under the Bridge" written by himself won the special award at the Venice Film Festival, and nothing else.

If "The Red Lantern Hangs High" really won the award at the Venice Film Festival now, then Wu Jianye's reputation in China will immediately rise, and it can be directly compared with the status of domestic famous directors.

There is no doubt that at this time, the country has just begun to develop, and it attaches great importance to foreign awards, or it can be said that the situation in the whole country is like this now, and the Chinese people who have been suppressed for nearly a hundred years urgently need to be recognized by the outside world.

Under such circumstances, if Wu Jianye wins the award, his status can be imagined.

Then it will not be so easy for Sun Jiarui to deal with Wu Jianye again.

Wu Jianye smiled and didn't say anything, at this time he was also very excited in his heart, although this movie won the Silver Lion Award in another time and space, but after all, it didn't happen this year, after all, this movie appeared in front of the TV audience several years in advance, whether everyone recognized it or not, Wu Jianye was also at a loss.

Wu Jianye's excitement is not that he needs to be recognized by the outside world, but that he needs to have this status, at this time, he feels more and more the gap in identity and status, and the shackles brought to him, many times he dances with shackles, especially the Sun Jiarui incident that happened this time, he doesn't like this feeling very much.

Jingle bells!

At this time, the phone in Wu Jianye's room rang.

After Wu Jianye answered the phone, he said a few words, then put down the phone, and then said to Grange Zhuang: "You guys talk first, I have something to do, go out for a while!"

Tian Zhuangzhuang nodded, and asked with some worry, "Do I need to accompany you?"

Wu Jianye shook his head with a smile and said, "It's okay, don't worry, I'll be back in a while!"

.......

Wu Jianye did not leave the hotel, but turned upstairs, stopped in front of a suite, the door was not locked, he pushed the door and walked in.

Linda was wearing a simple stand-up collar sweater and slacks, and sat on the sofa a little tiredly, and stood up after seeing Wu Jianye.

"What's the matter, I have to fly to Venice overnight, and the American side is the most critical time now. ”

Wu Jianye said nothing with a calm face, walked straight to the sofa, and sat down.

Only then did he speak: "Are the funds ready?"

Seeing that Wu Jianye's expression was not good, Linda didn't complain anymore, but sat opposite Wu Jianye: "Ready, but do you really want to do this?"

There is a saying in the foreign exchange market, unless you sleep next to the president of a Swiss bank, no one dares to say that they can have a smooth ride in the foreign exchange market.

Before, you took out all your net worth to short the Hong Kong dollar, which was already a very bold act, and now you have to use leverage, I have to say, this is crazy, even if a few numbers after the decimal point change, your loss is enough to make you jump on the Empire State Building!"

Before, Wu Jianye was just preparing to let himself earn some pocket money during the Hong Kong dollar storm, but after what happened two days ago, Wu Jianye felt that the chips in his hands were still too small, and he needed more funds to accelerate his plan, so at this time he had the intention of using leverage to make a lot of money in the Hong Kong dollar storm.

When he told Linda about this plan, Linda expressed strong opposition on the phone, as many people know, the changes in the foreign exchange market are more unpredictable than the changes in the stock market, and now Wu Jianye has to use 20 times the leverage.

You must know that if Wu Jianye really uses it, then the funds involved in him will be as high as nearly two billion US dollars, how can such a huge amount not make Linda crazy.

Wu Jianye sat there and said expressionlessly: "What I need is not your opinion, but your obedience, I only ask if you can do it!"

Linda nodded helplessly: "You are the boss, you can naturally do what you say!"

Wu Jianye: "It's good if you can do it, remember, when the exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the US dollar reaches 9.45:1, throw it away immediately!"

Linda didn't know how Wu Jianye analyzed this exchange rate, but now she seemed to see Wu Jianye's expression when he first arrived in the United States, dealing with Kerry's company, and knew that he had made up his mind and understood that what he was saying was useless!

"Okay, I see!"

"When this is over, I want you to set up a film production company in Hollywood immediately!" Wu Jianye told Linda why she was allowed to fly to Venice this time.

"Are you coming to Hollywood to develop?" Linda's first reaction was that Wu Jianye decided to go to Hollywood.

Wu Jianye shook his head and said: "I won't go to Hollywood now, but I have useful use in this company, you still remember Wang Zhen and others before, they have been in Africa for more than half a year, and after a year and a half, I need them to make an animated movie for me!"

Linda still didn't follow Wu Jianye's train of thought: "That's also a year and a half later, why do you want to set up a film production company now?"

Wu saw that he was in his pocket, took out a cigarette, and tapped the table with the cigarette holder before lighting it, "When you leave, I will give you a movie script, and when the Hong Kong dollar matter is over, you have to prepare this film crew in Hollywood immediately, the movie is an ordinary family movie, so it won't be too difficult to shoot, I want you to release it during the New Year in the United States, is there a problem?"

Linda didn't have any change in expression because Wu Jianye was smoking in front of her, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "I want to take a stake in this film company!"

Wu Jianye looked at Linda, "You want to take a stake, do you believe me so much?"

Linda nodded firmly: "I don't believe in you, I believe in all your previous achievements, since I met you, I found that almost everything you do has been successful, there is a saying in the United States, always follow the pace of successful people!"

Wu Jianye finally smiled: "I haven't heard of such a sentence in the United States. ”

Linda: "It's not important, the important thing is that I want to take a stake in this film company, I'm sure you also know our family's relationship in Hollywood, without the help of our family, even if it's a newly established film company, after shooting a movie, it is very difficult to release it in North America, and it's also a New Year's schedule." ”

Wu Jianye knew that almost all of his current business in the United States was in charge of Linda, and he never believed that Linda would be so loyal to him, everything was just interests, so that the two had cooperated very well until now.

Now Linda wants to take a stake in the film company, also for profit.

Interests are the most reliable cooperative relationship!

"Okay, I agree, but I can only give up 20% of the shares, and the registered capital of this company will reach 30 million US dollars. If you don't have any financial problems, I agree with your share!" Wu Jianye said.

Linda didn't think about it, and nodded directly: "Yes, then according to the original method, your shares are directly held by Shanhai Investment Company?"

"Not bad!"

Seeing that Wu Jianye agreed to her proposal, Linda stood up with a smile, opened a bottle of champagne in the room, and handed Wu Jianye a glass when she reached two glasses, and said with a smile: "Happy cooperation!"

"Happy working together!"

Then the two discussed the details of the entertainment company, such as hiring a professional manager, and also choosing a name for the film company, Phantom Entertainment Company!

It's just that when it came to the last decision, there was a disagreement between Linda and Wu Jianye.

"Since we have established a film company, then our main job at this stage is to produce excellent movies, rather than directly involving distribution, you should know that the distribution of Hollywood movies is firmly controlled by the Big Six, and we don't have the slightest achievement now, rashly involved in the distribution business, it is easy to be targeted by the Big Six, and then we will lose more than we lose!"

Wu Jianye means that the production and distribution will be carried out together, but Linda disagrees with this, in her opinion, if you just make one or two excellent movies, the Big Six will not say anything, but if the head iron wants to touch the release, this is the lifeblood of the Big Six in Hollywood, they have to fight with you.

Wu Jianye thought for a while, and knew that he was a little anxious by Sun Jiarui, "Okay, let's make movies first, but we can only focus on those independently produced films and art films, and the six major ones in this area shouldn't say anything, after all, they don't put much thought into this area!"

Independent films, in Hollywood, mean low profits, high risk, and require a high degree of market sensitivity, and the Big Six don't care too much about this thankless task.

Linda thought for a moment and said, "Okay, when I return to the United States, I will try to operate it, but if I find something wrong, I will immediately withdraw from the distribution business, after all, we are only a small film company, and the Big Six have all gone through decades of development, we must be cautious!"

Wu Jianye also knew that Linda was for the good of the company, so he agreed to Linda's proposal with a smile!

The two talked late into the night about the specifics.

By the end of the day, a bottle of champagne had already been drunk, and Linda's face was a little flushed at this time, and she didn't know when there was a hint of spring in her eyes.

"The weather on Lido Island is really strange, I didn't expect it to be so hot in the middle of the night. After finishing speaking, he glanced at Wu Jianye with silky eyes, and said with a smile: "I'm going to take a bath, my big boss, do you want to be together!"

Linda was slightly drunk, but Wu Jianye was very sober, he knew that this was not Linda who liked him at all, it was just that Linda wanted to relax with the strength of the wine.

If it was in the past, Wu Jianye wouldn't have said anything, anyway, he didn't have anything to lose, but now he remembered that the clouds were rolling up, the stars were dense and the stars were sparse, and there were flowers blooming and falling.

"I'm a decent gentleman!" Wu Jianye joked and got up to leave.

Looking at Wu Jianye's back, Linda pursed her lips, didn't say anything, and went to take a shower by herself.

.......

September 10th, the closing ceremony of the Venice Film Festival!

The closing ceremony of the Venice Film Festival means the end of the three major European film festivals this year, the first of the three major European film festivals is the Berlin Film Festival, which was originally held in June and July, but later in order to compete with the Cannes Film Festival.

In '78, the festival was held in February every year.

After the Berlin Film Festival, it will be the most well-known Cannes Film Festival in China, which will be held in May every year.

Finally, the Venice Film Festival!

As the crew of the award-winning "The Red Lantern Hangs High", it is natural that they will also walk on the red carpet.

Wu Jianye and others waited behind, watching the crews in front of them walking the red carpet in an orderly manner, and the sound of clicking in their ears was constant.

Compared with the show-off of the opening ceremony, the closing ceremony was very low-key, but the gorgeous and beautiful pictures still dazzled the red carpet, although there was less embellishment of Hollywood actresses, but it also gave many other young stars from various countries a chance to show their style.

However, when Marushka Dietmas, who wore a beige deep V slip dress, appeared on the stage, she was still glamorous, as the heroine of this year's Venice Film Festival hit film "Fang Ming Carmen", Marushka Dietmas was filmed by countless media people.

"Ahh

"Click!"

"Marushka Dietmas!!"

The atmosphere at the scene was completely ignited, and countless fans hysterically shouted the name of the 'goddess'.

Marushka Dietmas stood elegantly on the red carpet, waving to fans, with an elegant and calm attitude, which made people crazy.

Fang Shu and Li Xiaoli stood in the place waiting to enter the venue, looking at Marushka Dietmas's posture, and couldn't help but be envious.

Wu Jianye scratched his head a little bored, such a red carpet show really couldn't make any impression on him, and the red carpet without the participation of Sophie Marceau, the queen of the red carpet, was really boring.

In later generations, many domestic media people are complaining about how long domestic stars occupy the red carpet when they participate in international film festivals, but they don't know that the predecessor in this regard is Sophie Marceau, who has been touted by the Chinese people for a long time.

Sophie Marceau's behavior is much more advanced, people don't need to take long, as long as they are a little careless, the shoulder strap slips off, and they can kill all the films in an instant.

Wu Jianye once wondered why Sophie Marceau's shoulder strap always fell off when walking the red carpet.......

In curiosity, it was time for Wu Jianye and others to walk on the red carpet.
