Chapter 399: The International Stage Is There

Cannes Film Festival.

The news that Hong Chen was nominated for Best Actor also spread quickly in China.

You must know that being nominated for the Cannes Best Actor is in itself a recognition of strength.

Therefore, although "Chongzhen" has not yet been officially released, it has already gained a high degree of popularity in China.

#ζ΄ͺε°˜ζεζˆ›ηΊ³ε½±εΈ#θΏ™ζ‘ηƒ­ζœ, the heat is rapidly rising.

In China, the attention of the Cannes Film Festival was not too high, but this time, because of the flood dust, the popularity of the Cannes Film Festival is unprecedented.

"Cannes Best Actor nomination, amazing!"

"Haha, it's worthy of being my male god. ”

"Can you win another prize?"

"It's really a long face for the Chinese people. ”

Fans were thrilled, and passers-by praised it.

There are really too few Chinese actors who can be nominated for Best Actor in Cannes.

The Cannes Film Festival is deeply favored by Chinese stars, and many Chinese female stars go to the Cannes Film Festival every year to rub the red carpet.

This also includes a lot of top streams.

Every year after the end of the Cannes Film Festival, there will be posts of "such and such an actress overwhelms such and such an actress" and "such and such an actress makes a stunning appearance at the Cannes Film Festival".

In fact, many actresses will be ruthlessly expelled by the security guards if they stay on the red carpet for too long in order to rub the red carpet.

For the sake of some heat and traffic, they are also willing to take such a risk.

Up to now, Huaxia has not had a film shortlisted for the main competition unit for three consecutive years.

The director of the Cannes Film Festival also said directly in an interview with the Chinese media: Chinese films are too commercial.

As a result, there was a very magical scene at the Cannes Film Festival, that is, there were very few shortlisted works in China, but the red carpet outside the screen was occupied by Chinese female stars.

Looking at the entertainment news flying all over the sky in the later stage, I thought that these people had won awards.

There are four types of people who appear at the Cannes Film Festival.

The first is the judges, that is, the guests invited by the official, Gong Li and Maggie Cheung were both judges. Gong Li even made the opening guest:

is the first star to walk the red carpet, and she directly gets the clearance treatment, and she can only leave after she walks others.

The second is to rely on the works to be shortlisted in the name of justifiably.

The third is because of the brand spokesperson. Although Fan Shuishui did not have any works at that time, because she was the spokesperson of Paris Europe and Chopard Jewelry, both of which were sponsors of Cannes, she could attend for work.

There are no works that frequently walk the red carpet, and Fan Shuishui was also nicknamed "Blanket Star" back then.

The last one, cheeky rubbing the red carpet, some of the top flowers in the entertainment industry have done this kind of thing.

Hong Chen was officially shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival this year by virtue of his works.

Cannes, France, is a beautiful city, and the reason why the French Minister of Arts originally founded this film festival here is because of the very comfortable climate here.

Hong Chen took Ge Chen to Cannes to participate in the film festival, Ge Chen had contacted the Cannes Organizing Committee before, and he was familiar with this side.

A few days before the official awards and announcement, the festival will announce the broadcast time of the shortlisted films, and those who participate in the festival can go and watch it when the time comes.

However, only the judges and important members of the film are eligible to sit in the first row.

The premiere of "Chongzhen" was two days later.

The more important the film, the more it will be filmed later, which is also the usual method of the organizing committee.

This movie is pinned on by many people, as one of the few films in China that has entered the main competition unit of Cannes, whether it is the audience in China or Hong Chen, these actors very much hope that "Chongzhen" can win the award.

On this day, he appeared in the cinema in a black suit, which was obviously taken care of, and there was not a single wrinkle on it.

As soon as he appeared, many people recognized him and looked back at him.

Hong Chen now has a certain reputation in the world.

The movie that Hong Chen watched today is another movie from Huaxia: "Old Calf".

This movie was written by the famous Chinese director Feng Xiaogang. Feng Xiaogang is a powerful character, and he has no ability to say in terms of directing.

Hong Chen sat in the movie theater, looked around, and found that the seats were relatively full, but most of them were very embarrassed.

In fact, it is normal, most of the stars who come to the Cannes Film Festival only attend the opening ceremony and awards gala to join in the fun. As for the intermediate review process and links, they don't pay attention to it at all.

Hong Chen sat in the cinema and quietly watched "Old Calf".

To be honest, he was a little disappointed.

This movie is about an old gangster, who doesn't have much ability, and when he encounters something, he will talk a little nonsense, and he can pretend to be a young junior.

Something happened to his son, and he had no money to settle it down, so he went to pretend to be with the rich second-generation Wu Yifan, but he still had to lose money in a gray way, and raising money with friends was also full of words.

In the end, he made an appointment with the rich second-generation Wu Yifan, and wrote a letter to report the other party before the appointment.

The key is that Wu Yifan, as the top rich second generation, has dozens of younger brothers, and he still eats his set of Jianghu morality, which makes him pretend to be round......

When watching this movie, Hong Chen thought in his heart that the other party was Wu Yifan, not Zhao Gongzi.

If this is Zhao Gongzi, just to save his son, he will have to be beaten to the point where he doesn't know what to do.

Director Feng wants to reflect the morality of the older generation, obviously he has achieved nothing but is extremely good-looking, which is difficult to resonate with people. ”

"However, let's see what happens, and there is nothing to say about the shooting techniques and the creation of the atmosphere. ”

Hong Chen thought in his heart, but he didn't show it.

Then, Hong Chen was about to get up and leave. Coincidentally, he happened to meet Feng Xiaogang head-on in the corridor.

Feng Xiaogang and Hong Chen glanced at each other, Hong Chen thought that as Chinese people who could be shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival at the same time, the two of them would at least have a feeling of meeting old acquaintances in a foreign country.

But just when he wanted to say hello to Director Feng, Feng Xiaogang glanced at him very indifferently.

There was a bit of undisguised disdain in his eyes.

Seeing his indifferent expression, the smile on Hong Chen's face slowly disappeared.

He frowned suspiciously: How does it look like Feng Xiaogang seems to have an opinion about himself?

"What's the situation?" Hong Chen thought to himself.

Hong Chen didn't think much about it and left.

Later, Hong Chen Ge Chen understood it and understood.

"You don't know, Feng Xiaogang spent a lot of effort on filming "Old Calf", and he also created a lot of momentum in China at that time, and he came for the grand prize of the main competition unit of Cannes - the Palme d'Or. Ge Chen explained with a smile.

"And this, his ambition is not low. ”

Hong Chen sighed.

You must know that the Palme d'Or is one of the most prestigious awards in the film industry. For so many years in Chinese film history, only one such work as "Farewell My Concubine" has won the Palme d'Or.

"Yes, but unfortunately, when shortlisted for the main competition unit, "Old Calf" did not compete for "Chongzhen". ”

Feng Xiaogang's film was lowered from the main competition unit to the "unkind of attention" competition unit. ”

The highlight of the Cannes Film Festival is in the main competition unit, and the others are just mixed names.

Therefore, Director Feng had a faint grudge against Hong Chen.

There is one thing to say, Director Feng is a character, and the level of director is not to be said, but he just doesn't have a big heart.

In the parallel world, Director Feng's "Lao Paoer" lost to Deng Zhao's "Scorching Sun" when competing for the best actor, and Deng Zhao was sneered at by Director Feng so far.

Of course, I also used to film with Deng Zhao under Director Feng and often played dramas. It's just that Brother Chao's two crews run back and forth, and Director Feng can't see Deng Copy, so he has a grudge against him for a long time.

To tell the truth, "Lao Paoer" is okay, but his performance in it is really not as good as Deng Zhao's performance in "Scorching Sun", Deng Zhao's actor deserves his name.

In this world, Hong Chen relied on "Scorching Sun" to win the actor, but he didn't meet Feng Xiaogang at that time.

It's just that now in Cannes, as if it was destined, Director Feng appeared again.

Only then did Hong Chen react, and what he occasionally saw some time ago, a Weibo posted by Director Feng:

"Some people, relying on a few good scripts to succeed in commercial films, think that the literary and artistic circle is also so simple. But I'm telling you, you're still too tender!"

At that time, there were still many people speculating about who Feng Xiaogang was scolding.

Hong Chen reacted now, this should be talking about him.

To this, he shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

In this line of work, the higher you go, the more people will be jealous of you, and if anyone ridicules you, then Hong Chen doesn't have to do anything else.

Hong Chen's idea was simple.

The international stage is there, and whether you can win the award or not depends on your ability.
