Ji Ming thought about it, but still felt that it couldn't be too much, so he admitted that he had actually been preparing for a short time, preparing to do the musical "Silence": "We have been doing it for several months, but our country's musical talent pool is still relatively thin, and it is not easy to form a satisfactory team, so it has been delayed until now." Your mention has helped me a lot, and I think that after returning from Venice, our progress will improve a lot, uh, thank you very much. ”

Morris blinked, with his bare head, and a little cute.

“...... So you're saying this month, your musical will be on stage?"

"No, no, no, no, I guess I'll get November or December at the earliest. Ji Ming estimated that everything was going well, and it would be time before the premiere.

Morris spun his mind and breathed a sigh of relief: "Actually, have you ever thought that we can make different versions at the same time. As you said, Chinese musicals may still be in their infancy, but the UK has been doing it for a long time, we have a very mature environment, talents, mechanisms, you can borrow these, I believe it will be of great help to the Chinese version of "Mo". ”

Meantime?

Ji Ming didn't give him an answer immediately, in fact, he didn't think about taking this script to the West District to make a version, and then export it to domestic sales. However, the style of musicals in the West End may not meet the tastes of Chinese audiences, both in terms of music and performance - even if many classic British and American musicals have countless fans in China, but those are already classics after all, and they do not represent most Western musicals at all.

"Let me think about it, and I'll give you an answer before I leave Venice. ”

"Of course. Morris was already satisfied with this answer: "Actually, this plan is really good, after all, this is a story that you are very familiar with, and at the beginning of your performance and production of the musical, you can experience it in two completely different cultural backgrounds, and the two versions will have similarities and different needs, and you can feel it all to the fullest." This will be of great benefit to you in the Western District and in China. ”

Morris is very good at persuading people, and Ji Ming admits that he is moved.

He nodded: "I will seriously consider it." ”

"Looking forward to the good news. ”

Morris's sudden intervention distracted Ji Ming's attention to the Venice Film Festival a lot, so he showed a great style, so that the women in the crew admired it very much.

"It's true that you've seen a big scene, it's all stirred up outside, and you're not disturbed at all. "Rosé admires it very much.

"Huh?"

"That's right, the premiere has all premiered, and so far, the most likely actor is you and the actor of "Joker". Xiao Chen's translator showed us a lot of comments and articles, it was so lively, we were all nervous, but you were not in a hurry at all, are you confident, or are you pretending to be good? haha. ”

Ji Ming looked around: "Selling this thing, it doesn't have much value, you say it's popular, maybe the judges don't think it at all, you say you don't have a sense of existence, maybe he just takes it, instead of thinking too much, such as relaxing." After all, we don't make movies to win awards, our mentality is unbalanced, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

Tsk, what a beep.

If this is one of his dormitories, designate one for him to debunk, but here, whether it is Taohong or Yuanquan, Wen Yan, or Alice, they don't know much about Ji Ming's true face, although they are quite puzzled at this time, they can't pierce him with a pinpoint to the point, they can only be suspicious.

Ji Ming secretly laughed for a while, turned his attention back, picked up those comment articles and looked at them.

"The probability of Jie Kun winning the actor is much higher than Ji Ming?" Ji Ming read it out, and then looked at the source: "Yo, this one seems to be quite famous in Europe." ”

The author is a European film observer, who has analyzed the attribution of the awards of the three major film festivals all year round, and what he said is quite reasonable: "...... "Joker" as a comic/British work, even though it has been well received, I still can't imagine that the jury judges will award it the Golden Lion, Venice may be becoming more open step by step, but Rome is not built in a day, Italians are born slowly, maybe after "Joker", it will not be surprising that the comic film won the Golden Lion, but this year, it is difficult.

That being the case, given Venice's strict balance of awards, "Joker" will be far more likely to win other awards while missing out on the Golden Lion – yes, as you all know, I mean Best Actor, and with the accolades Jaaquin Phoenix has received, he will be expected to win this Volpi Cup.

However, we must mention another amazing actor, and that is Ji Ming, a talented 22-year-old Chinese actor who has previously made a splash at the Cannes Film Festival and has become one of Italy's most well-known and popular foreign actors. This time he brought to Venice his new work, "Silence", is also an astonishing masterpiece, reality and fantasy, hope and despair, art and life...... It explores and presents many issues of great concern and delivers a stunning performance that has conquered all audiences, competing for all the accolades with Jackie and any actor of the year.

The problem, however, is that "Mo" is more of a golden lion than "Joker" — and I don't think it's going to win an award, but that's another question. "Mo" can effectively compete for the highest award, which will weaken the possibility of Ji Ming competing for the best actor, and the judges are constantly making trade-offs, and he is likely to be 'sacrificed' in this trade-off......

That may be a pity, but this is Venice – there are too many people to win and too few awards. ”

In fact, to summarize briefly, it is unlikely that "Joker" will win the award, and the jury will give an actor to balance it, and although "Mo" is unlikely to win the award, it is one of the serious award contenders, so it will be weaker in the actor - a passive gambling situation, either the grand prize, or the leftovers, or even no grain.

Not without reason.

Of course, in other comments, there are also assertions that Ji Ming is the most likely to win the award - "Jack Kun's performance is wonderful, but frankly speaking, if you change a powerful actor, there is a high probability that you can also have a good performance, depending on the subject matter and character design, as far as the actor is concerned, his creativity is not too much to show." However, Ji Ming's performance in "Silence" is very spiritual and creative, and it is difficult to reproduce his performance by another person, Ji Ming has shaped the work with personal efforts and made it unique and distinctive. If Venice's attitude towards the recognition of actors is healthy, there is no doubt that Ji Ming should win the award more than Jackie, and even, even if it is the Golden Lion Award, it should give way to the affirmation of Ji Ming's personal performance. ”

Praised.

In addition, there are those who are unbiased and think that the jury is going to have a headache to death.

Of course, the other participating films also have their own sense of existence, and they think that the possibility of a big hit is very high - for example, "Joker" won a jury award, and "Silence" won the Golden Lion, and the actor naturally went to someone else, but the splash was not big.

"It seems that everyone doesn't think we can take the Golden Lion?" Ji Ming flipped for a while and came to this conclusion: "It is said that Chinese films have captured the Golden Lion seven times, and the last time "Lust and Caution" was twelve years ago, it is not strange to have another Chinese Golden Lion." ”

Alice thought for a moment, "Do you know Luquecia, the president of the jury?"

"Huh?"

"This is a very avant-garde Argentine female director, and I think some people even think that she is not impossible to push "Joker" to win the Golden Lion," Alice shrugged her shoulders: "Thriller, gloomy, social issues, most evils...... Very to her taste. However, speaking of which, she is also a director who has very high requirements for the finesse of the actors' performances - and you have an advantage in this. ”

"The chairman of the jury can't decide everything, right?" asked Motoquan.

"But Venice only has seven judges, and the chairman has a lot of room to maneuver if he wants. ”

Everyone nodded knowingly.

"Wait. Ji Ming leaned back and said with a smile: "Maybe the Golden Lion and the actor are neither "Joker" nor ours at the same time, haha, maybe "Lanxin Theater" won the Golden Lion, or the cartoon "Jiyuan Terrace No. 7" won it, which is also shocking." ”

“......”

He gets a bunch of white eyes.

The atmosphere in Venice is not as good as in Cannes, especially in the trading part, when Ji Ming participates in the Cannes Film Festival, he can often go shopping all day and watch different film projects, such as war trauma films in the Middle East, slum stories in India, blood and tears in Africa, and gay love in Europe...... But Venice is much more boring and more loose.

It wasn't until the 7th, the closing ceremony of the film festival, that everyone suddenly created a tense atmosphere, and the entire water city changed.

Chinese journalists are also getting busy.

"Who will win the award for the three shortlisted Chinese-language films? What kind of award? Finally, make a prediction" -- this is a question asked of domestic and foreign filmmakers and important members of the organizing committee.

"Is it possible for Ji Ming to break through the three shackles? Will Lou Ye get what he wants to break into Venice again? Gong Li will write a new legend after the second battle?" -- this is a manuscript dedicated to domestic readers on the last day.

Little by little, the atmosphere is set up.

"The letter girl is willing to exchange twenty catties of fat for Ji Ming to win the actor!"

"Nervous and nervous, get the prize and get the prize. ”

"Although I don't want to say that, there is always a faint sense of bad luck that I am going to be hot...... Don't hit me. ”

With the efforts of the media and netizens, the Venice Film Festival has finally climbed onto the hot search slowly.

......

"It's on the hot search, if you really take it later, it will definitely explode. Chu Qingqing took a sip of lemon passion fruit honey water, and showed her mobile phone to Chu Qing, Chu Qing had no hands, her hands were wearing gloves, and she was pinching a piece of lemon passion fruit-flavored phoenix claws: "Is it delicious?"

"It's okay, you haven't eaten?"

Chu Qingqing shook his head: "I don't like to eat phoenix feet." ”

This phoenix claw was made by her boyfriend, Chu Qing really didn't expect that after Chu Qingqing graduated, she found a boyfriend who could make homemade phoenix claws, and she was very virtuous.

"Don't talk about phoenix claws," Chu Qingqing snorted: "Your boyfriend is competing for Venice actor in Venice, so nervous." ”

Chu Qing was actually nervous, she originally wanted to accompany Ji Ming, after all, if he really took it, it would be a very important moment for him - but she had a performance, she really couldn't go, and Chu Qing was also preparing to go to Europe for further study, so she couldn't get away.

"Huh, if you don't take it this time, you will take it in the future, I have confidence in him. ”

“...... "Chu Qingqing glanced at her and swiped the hot search: "Hey, it's starting to start, it's out, the Marcelo Maschuani Award, this is a-oh, the Newcomer Award, "Baby Teeth"? ”

From this moment on, the room froze.

......

In GQ magazine, the editor-in-chief of Tang tapped his index finger on the desk, looking very eager.

It seems that he is a little more nervous than Chu Qing, in fact, he is indeed more nervous than Chu Qing, after all, it is a key matter related to the next big operation. For the 10th anniversary dinner of GQ, the editor-in-chief Tang poured months of hard work, and the entire magazine, and even the Condé Nast Group behind it, spent countless efforts to contact the artists and design links, and the positions, treatments, chemical reactions, and even the specific processes, effects, and follow-up ...... You have to pick it little by little, and you can move your whole body.

Ji Ming, in the design of Tang Bian, is the pillar and eye of this flashy drama, suppressing the existence of all kinds of glamorous and cheap goods.

If he can carry the boundless aura of the new Venice actor and appear on the red carpet of the 10th anniversary dinner of "GQ" just a dozen hours after the award ceremony, it will be a wonderful moment for Tang Bian to be willing to get drunk for a long time - whether the highlight of his career will appear, there will be results within an hour.

"God forbid. ”

His assistant secretly glanced at him, in fact, the assistant felt, why bother, although Liang Yingdi was a little more stable in the finale, at least it was not easy to make mistakes, betting on Ji Ming, success will be brilliant, defeat will not be embarrassing or embarrassing - with Ji Ming's strength and influence, there is no problem with the finale, but after being disappointed in Venice, it is somewhat regrettable.

I hope so, he prayed in a whisper.

......

Looking forward to Ji Ming's award to bring the last wave of market light to "Nezha", several investors who are thinking about repeating the box office miracle of "Immortals", of course, as well as Figramu, MIng brand and other stakeholders - are waiting for the European continent to uncover the final mystery.

Hollywood's highest honor for unexpected filmmakers, the three emperors and queens, will it belong to Ji Ming tonight?

Ji Ming was on the scene, but he didn't really care about these.

Especially when the Script Award was awarded to "Jiyuantai No. 7", he calmed down more and more - the award is only about the recognition of the movie, which is indeed an enviable thing.

Judge Paul Welch, and the award presenters took the stage, and they will present the Volpi Cup for Best Actor - just now, the Volpi Cup belonging to the actress was taken away by the veteran French film actor Ariane, Gong Li lost the possibility of being sealed for the second time, she should not be too disappointed, because this seems to mean that "Lyceum Theater" still has the possibility of winning a certain award, of course, it may not win anything.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.

Is it Joaquin Phoenix, who inherited his brother Rivan, who died early, and also won the Venice Best Actor?

Is it Ji Ming's fame in Cannes, Venice's accession to the throne, and everyone witnessing the early success of a 22-year-old film wizard?

Or Luca in "Martin Eden" or Jean Dujardin in "I Accuse...... Or some other character who swept away the two favorites together?

This is probably the most anticipated award – even when you put the completely elusive Golden Lion together.

Taohong gently patted the back of Ji Ming's hand on his knee, Ji Ming turned his head to look at her, and then in her crooked smiling eyes, she heard the earliest Italian announcement - "Best actor, belongs to "Silence", Gi Ming!"

Ji Ming, I won the award!
