Chapter 0339: Cannes: The Beginning of the Whirlwind
Rest, is really rest.
You can't look at your phone for a long time, read scripts, watch TV, and rest your eyes. You can't eat greasy, spicy, etc., and your stomach should rest. Face mask and skin care have to be done...... In short, this is a task, not a fat house holiday, you can eat if you want, play when you want, and sleep when you want.
Ji Ming wants to maintain himself in the best state - if he doesn't fly for more than ten hours, and it's still a big night, that state will be even more challenging.
People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.
As himself, in fact, including many actors, it is estimated that they are willing to watch the film in pajamas, as long as no one shoots and no one cares.
He was the only one in the house.
After Chu Qing won the Isaac Stern Competition, she officially worshiped under Lu Siqing, she took a leave of absence before, went to Ji Ming's hometown to help Yin Ning choose two violin teachers, and by the way, Ji Ming's sister and uncle and so on were onlookers, the scene was very tragic - according to Chu Qing herself, it was the most terrible scene in her life, she still doesn't understand why she dared to go to her mother-in-law's house alone.
Was it a donkey kick in the brain?
She just felt that she could help Yin Ning, all along, Chu Qing admired this prospective mother-in-law very much, her love with Lao Ji, she brought up such an excellent Ji Ming alone, she lived so elegantly and contentmently, beautiful and clean...... It's all things that Chu Qing admires very much, so this time I feel that I can contribute, so I didn't think about anything, so I ran over by myself. When I arrived, I found out that this was too terrible, without Ji Ming by her side, she faced Ji Ming's sisters alone, although everyone was very nice, but the pressure would not be reduced in any way.
Four mothers-in-law!!
finally found one of Ji Ming's shortcomings - there are too many mothers-in-law.
When he called Ji Ming, his voice was shaking, and Ji Ming, who had no heart and lungs, laughed half to death here alone - so after Chu Qing came back, he didn't give him a good look for a few days, and Ji Ming tried his best to appease him.
But after that, Chu Qing also began to get busy.
It is said that Lu Siqing wants her to participate in a new competition again.
"Practice, compete, practice, compete...... If you don't have a long-term study plan in between, I guess it's going to be like this for a long time. Chu Qing was also wide-eyed and under a lot of pressure, but with Ji Ming's support, he could hold on.
Ji Ming himself also realized that the word respect is not a fluttering love word, but a real effort - he doesn't have much time on vacation, and when he is at home, Chu Qing may not be free to accompany him, which means that even if both parties are in Beijing, they will not see each other all day long.
Tut.
It's silly to play cotton with such a handsome boyfriend and not play.
Leaning on the sofa, Ji Ming began to consume merit points and completed the vow repayment task.
The feeling of using merit points, in fact, has been a few times, and they are not the same, such as the time of "Bright Red", which is to directly invade the character's life, infinitely fill in the details, and help Ji Ming complete an extremely complete character establishment, which is also the most challenging way for him, and he is too deep in the play. When "Thunderstorm" and "Miss Saigon", it was more relaxed, and through different versions, different actors, and different angles of display and summary, it helped Ji Ming form his own role.
But this time, it's different.
Someone is talking.
"You have to have a beautiful mouth and speak kind words, you have lovely eyes to see the good of others, you have to be slender and give your food to the hungry, you have to have a graceful posture, and you have to remember that you are not the only pedestrian when you walk......
This voice seems to be not just a sound, but also a picture, with a variety of indescribable feelings, bit by bit into Ji Ming's thoughts.
Swish.
Ji Ming suddenly opened his eyes, and five hours flew by.
He carefully experienced that this wish-repaying task that consumes the most merit points - as if it is recovering merit points, is still a good koi in charge, preventing over-issuance of currency and inflation.
He's still him!
It did not become some European "aristocracy" at a glance.
But there is indeed a difference, Ji Ming walked to the front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, closed his eyes, and then opened them, obvious but not arrogant, rich but not greasy, typical and not pretentious elegant appearance, and with only a little rustiness, appeared in the mirror - an elegant buff?
In fact, it is still a role - the elegant Ji Ming, this role is not very difficult for Ji Ming to play by himself.
……
"You go to sleep, hurry. ”
A yawn, a yawn, the time pointed to 12 o'clock in the evening, Ji Ming's plane at three o'clock in the morning, direct flight to Nice, France, arrived at eight o'clock in the morning French time, and the opening ceremony would be ushered in on the same day, and the busy itinerary could be seen at a glance.
"Stay safe and give me news. ”
"Okay, be good at home, don't be too tired. Ji Ming hugged Chu Qing, a bit like going out to say goodbye to his wife, he suddenly felt that he had a lot of drama, but the warmth of the hug was still very greedy: "Close the door and go." ”
"Hmm. ”
The eyes can pull out the silk, but no matter how reluctant they are, they have to be in vain.
The driver drove a seven-seater, Ji Ming, Lin Ran, Tang Fan, Yang Ruyi, plus Sister Wang, all of them had to fly to Cannes together, and the luggage was full - this was because Ji Ming didn't bring his clothes and shoes, if there were, it was estimated that he would have to bring one more car.
"Thank you all so early. ”
"Usually no one sleeps at this point, it's only 12 o'clock. Yang Ruyi handed Ji Ming an eye patch: "You sleep, it will be better in the past." ”
Tang Fan was a little excited, it was the first time for him to appear at the Cannes Film Festival, and after showing off in the circle of friends, it was still difficult to calm down, so as soon as people were proud, he was easy to say: "Sister Yang, you are still sleeping so late now, can you have energy the next day?"
Ji Ming's blindfolded hand paused, why is my assistant so stupid.
"So you mean, I'm too old to stay up late, do you?"
Ahh
Watch the show.
“…… Me, I don't mean that, I mean I don't have enough energy, and it's hard to stay up late. ”
"So I'm older than you, so I'm going to have no energy, I'm going to doze off after eight o'clock, and I can sleep three times watching TV, right?"
"I'm sorry Sister Yang, I was wrong. ”
Hum.
Arouse.
Lin Ran gloated and fell into the ground: "Brother Fan, you have an emotional intelligence, you will have a girlfriend in the future, what can you do? Will you be on the verge of death every day?"
"Nonsense. ”
Ji Ming finally came out to administer justice.
Tang Fan was very grateful, except for the driver in the car, the two of them were men, and they had to watch and help each other.
"I think Tang Fan is good, the girlfriend he will find in the future must be a watery girl like flowers, with the elegant temperament of a swan, and as simple and sincere as a cabbage in the field, definitely not a bewitching slut. ”
"Thank you owner, I will try. ”
"Come on. ”
Lin Ran sighed twice, according to her understanding of the boss, Ji Ming is obviously not a good person, oh no, it should be said that he is obviously not a person who speaks so well - in such a situation, he doesn't give Tang Fan a knife, even if he is polite. To this day, she still remembers that two days ago, Ji Ming gave her several knives, which was painful.
"Flowers, swans, cabbage?"
"I'll sleep for a while, be quiet. Ji Ming put on the blindfold without moving and began to sleep.
Sister Wang, who was more sleepy, suddenly opened her eyes: "A flower is inserted in the cow dung, the toad wants to eat swan meat, and the good cabbage is arched by the pig-Xiao Tang, you have to work hard and be ambitious." ”
Grief!
The whole car couldn't stop laughing.
Even the company driver couldn't hold back, some artists' tasks, it was really uncomfortable, the agent spoke harshly, the artist himself was not a good thing, there would be knives flying between the agent and the artist, the atmosphere in the whole car was like a thriller, I don't know when I stretched out a claw behind me and grabbed the driver's head - terrible.
It's still Ji Ming's atmosphere here is a little better.
is worthy of being popular at a young age, handsome and good.
"Teacher Ji, my daughter likes you very much. ”
"Huh, huh? Thank her, tell her I have a girlfriend. ”
“…… My daughter is only four years old. ”
Ji Ming took off his blindfold and looked at the driver from the mirror: "You usually stay up late and stay up a lot, right? It's too hard." ”
Words are good words, but they don't sound so good.
……
After nearly 12 hours of flight, I had to face the media as soon as I got off the plane - Ji Ming was in Europe, in fact, he didn't have too much recognition, at most he was a fan of some international students. Therefore, the global spokesperson of the Philippine family is essentially an emphasis on the Chinese market, in fact, Hollywood is the same, some Hollywood stars are not too well-known in China, but as an entertainment highland, they are naturally a little more forced, and the global hat does not feel heavy.
Ji Ming is not embarrassed.
However, every year in Cannes, Chinese filmmakers will get together. This year is actually a big year for Chinese films, there are two main competitions, "Children of the Rivers and Lakes" and "Immortals", a kind of attention unit has "The Last Night on Earth", the director's biweekly has "Pluto Moment", and the short film competition has "Yanbian Boy", but in fact, this is the second time in three years that a Chinese film has been shortlisted for the main competition, but there have been many Chinese filmmakers who have walked the red carpet to attend the event before.
1905, One Eye, and Penguin all have similar theme reporting teams, plus some domestic official media that are stationed in Europe, as well as some key print media, will appear in Cannes, and most of them will also appear at Nice Airport.
There is no big problem with going abroad to let the domestic media shoot and shoot it for the domestic audience.
Commotion.
From a distance, Ji Ming could hear the commotion.
International student fans from all over Europe, as well as a few foreigners, are like a fixed team, watching stars wave by wave, not so much chasing stars, but looking at fellow villagers - fellow villagers see fellow countrymen, tears in their eyes.
"It's coming, it's coming. ”
"Ji Ming, Ji Ming, this way. ”
The French staff at the airport not far away, two women, saw this movement, leaned together to gossip, and asked a colleague who knew Chinese to ask:
"It seems that this is a very famous Chinese star?"
"It should be," the colleague rummaged through his memory, "Jiming, oh I see." ”
"Know what?"
"He is the starring film of "Immortals" and a finalist in the main competition. ”
Obviously, this airport staff who is always ready to deal with things involving Chinese celebrities, journalists, and international students has memorized most of the materials included in the Chinese language film - it is also strange that Gallic chicken still has such a hard-working staff.
However, when it came to the main competition, the two female employees still adjusted their expressions, from watching gossip to being really curious.
The Cannes Film Festival is a very important theme for Cannes, and even for Nice, which is next door, and the locals have almost carved movies into their bones, whether for business or for a real love of film, but movies have really become inseparable from them.
Therefore, the locals have special feelings for the works that can be shortlisted for the main competition.
"He looked very young. ”
"Well, 20 years old," a colleague who understands Chinese checked his mobile phone, suddenly saw an interesting news, and wowed: "He just became the face of Salvatore Ferragamo, global, oh, their Twitter announced this in multiple languages." ”
It's really worth a wow—why everyone likes to endorse luxury goods, here's why.
It can make people who don't know you wow~~
Ji Ming is wearing very simple, Salvatore Ferragamo's early spring casual series of ready-to-wear, low-key choice, wearing a pair of glasses, black-framed silver edges, and no elegant buff, but there is a little change in temperament - when he looks at you with both eyes, you will indeed feel hot.
"How did it feel? I was on a plane for more than ten hours. ”
"It feels pretty good. ”
"Colleagues from the crew, will you come over later?"
"Yes, the director seems to have come from Hong Kong. ”
"What are your thoughts on winning the award?"
"I hope the director can make a success, haha, I don't have too many ideas myself, frankly, I think there is still a lot of room for improvement, um. ”
"Will you meet other Chinese filmmakers?"
"Cannes is not big, there should be a chance, and if the time is okay, I would like to see more films, because after all, when I come to Cannes, it is rare to see so many of the best filmmakers in the world for the first time, and I feel very impulsive to enjoy it. ”
"Liao Fan arrived a little earlier than you, you will all compete for the best actor, I don't know what you think? haha. ”
Ji Ming looked at this one-eyed reporter who laughed out of his own eyes, several major portals with unlimited scenery in the past are almost withered now, and if one eye didn't catch the tuyere of Weibo, it would be sad now.
"I don't think it can be compared, yes, Brother Liao Fan is a Berlin actor, he is recognized, a very good actor, I still focus on learning more, and I hope to become an actor like Brother Liao Fan in the future. ”
This is a very official and polite actor.
But in fact, they really have the opportunity to sit together and chat, Liao Fan won the Berlin actor with "Fireworks in the Day", and Wen Yan is the producer of this movie, when they meet in Cannes, there will definitely be a chance to touch it, and no one will really regard "Immortals" and "Children of Jianghu" as a pair of opponents - that is too arrogant, Cannes and Europe, where the masters are like clouds, Chinese films are far from this arrangement.
After asking about movies and gossip, the Firebird reporter was the first to provoke a fashion topic.
"Can you tell us about the red carpet look for the evening?"
"Well, to be honest, I haven't seen it yet, hahaha," Ji Ming also felt a little ridiculous: "The clothes were sent from Milan, and then we haven't seen the real thing, right, so it may not be until the red carpet that you can see it, and I'm looking forward to it myself." ”
It's a matter of answering all questions.
The reporters also let them go, and by the way, they patted the fans to give gifts - they didn't care how these fans came from, it really didn't matter, whether they were looking for part-time jobs for international students, they just had to shoot them and send them out.
Ji Ming's fans are real.
There were five girls, who came together, from Paris and Berlin, and they also wasted a lot of energy.
"This is what we gave you, when the news of your endorsement came out before, we bought a wallet and a belt here, you must accept it," the girls who spoke were crying, too excited: "Usually we are all in Europe, and domestic activities, especially the last fan meeting, can't go, it's a pity." You must accept this gift, just this time. ”
Ji Ming nodded and took it: "Thank you, but you guys are a little stupid." I've endorsed it, and you're still giving me this, isn't it a bit silly?"
"Ahh ”
"Haha, take care of yourself abroad, don't break the bank. ”
"Got it. ”
It's too gentle, it's too handsome, it's really worth it.
"Take a picture?"
"Good, good. ”
Waiting for Ji Ming to get in the car and leave, the five little girls were still immersed in the afterglow of close contact with their idols, holding a string of bracelets in their hands, which were platinum, with a few crystal skulls, Swarovski's things, before leaving just now, Ji Ming unloaded them from under his hands and let them dismantle one skull for each person, haha.
"I paid for it, Qiuqiu you, I love him so much. ”
"I can also pay for it, give it to me. ”
"I don't have any money, but I have backbone. ”
"Don't want money for me?"
"Dream," the hat girl gave her a blank look, "quickly untie it for me, and give me a piece of the chain." ”
"Woo. ”
"Wait a minute, take a photo and take a photo first, everyone can send it, just as he sent five strings. ”
"This line. ”
So Ji Ming's fans in the Chinese world all turned into lemon essence - too eccentric!!
"Ah!!We prepared a little gift for Ji Ming, he didn't accept it, we were about to cry, he was finally willing to accept it, but he still insisted on giving me back the chain on his hand, oh my God, what a good day this is." ”
"Laugh to death, do you do business?"
"Ahhhh
- "The Fei family's wallet belt or something, I hope he will use it in the future, hehe." ”
- "And then he gave you the bracelet?"
- "He must be unwilling to accept expensive gifts from fans, and it is not easy to refuse you overseas fans who can't meet each other, so he has no choice but to give back." My brother is so sweet and wonderful. ”
This is just the first small tidbit of Ji Ming's Cannes trip that has attracted much attention.
Weibo Entertainment released later: "Ji Ming, who was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Cannes International Film Festival with "Immortals", arrived at Nice Airport at 8:30 a.m. in the morning French time, and Ji Ming, who was dressed in a simple costume, was in very good condition, saying that he was very happy to have the opportunity to come to Cannes to exchange and learn from film festivals around the world, and he was also looking forward to seeing everyone's works. In addition, he also sent his blessings to Wen Yan, the director of "Immortals", and said that he looked forward to the director's success. The reporter will continue to pay attention to Ji Ming's follow-up itinerary, and will also send the news of "Immortals" to you as soon as possible, so stay tuned. To learn more, click on the #71st Cannes International Film Festival feature#"
In addition to the current pictures taken at the airport, there are also some red carpet photos from the past, as well as stills from "Immortals".
"Looking forward to seeing reviews of the movie! When will it premiere?"
- "The 13th, the afternoon of the fifth day. ”
"This time, I really hope that Ji Ming can continue to travel all the way and overturn Europe!"
