Chapter 229: Enjoying Life (part 2/5)

Of course, if you want to win a prize, even if you are selected, it is a victory, but it is nonsense to coax children to play...

Besides, where is the fairness of this Cannes?

If "Adele's Life" is not a lesbian, can she win the Palme d'Or?

How is "Carol" worse than "Adele's Life"?

It can only be said that Abdai Kosych has been stained with the luster of LGBT political correctness - France has just passed the gay bill before winning the award!

There is also a French film that has not won the Palme d'Or for 21 years...

The time and place are favorable, and Abdai Kosich naturally stands on the magic weapon to win!

However, at European film festivals, the taste of the jury sometimes determines the attribution of film awards.

The Palme d'Or is unlikely, but there are other awards that can be won – the Jury Award or the Director's Award...

If you can win one of these two awards, it will also be a great improvement for Lu Xiaoran's status in the film industry!

It can also be used to open up the influence of domestic films in the European market, and a Venice Golden Lion Award is still not enough to watch.

......

At night, the wind comes from the sea.

With a bit of a fishy smell.

Lu Xiaoran is visiting Cannes for the first time.

In a good mood, sitting on the balcony of the room and being able to sit quietly and have a cup of coffee.

Of course.

He doesn't like to drink coffee...

This is prepared by the hotel.

Pulling on his slippers, Sugar Candy came out of the bathroom, wiping his hair and sighing, "You're in good spirits!"

β€œ... What's really good in spirit?"

"You don't have to get jet lag!"

Lu Xiaoran smiled: "... If you take a look at the box office of "To Youth", you will be in a good mood!"

β€œ... What does it have to do with me..."

That being said, Sugar Candy walked over anyway...

Of course, the movie "To Youth" has nothing to do with Tangtang, she is neither a producer nor a producer, but several leading actors are all arranged by her: Huang Xuan, Li Qin, Nini, Qiao Renliang...

originally wanted to use Li Yifeng, but he was signed away by Huanrui.

"350 million?"

"Well, ten days after its release, 350 million, even if you can't beat "Iron Man 3", it's okay to pass 500 million!"

Tangtang thought for a moment and asked, "How much has our stock price risen?"

"Twenty percent, I don't pay attention to that!"

β€œ... You're bragging, don't pay attention to these, how do you know about the increase?"

"Chen Zhixi told me, she is a retail investor and has 50,000 shares in her hand..."

"Retail investor, didn't she subscribe to the original shares before?"

"Last year, she cashed out and bought five houses with all the money, and she said that her dream is to have her house in all the third-tier cities in China..."

"What a great wish!"

Sugar Candy muttered, then crouched down...

Lu Xiaoran was frightened and stood up directly: "What are you going to do, this is the balcony!"

β€œ... Didn't you say there are no journalists and no media?"

"That's not going to work, what if someone peeps!"

β€œ...”

Sugar Candy was very unhappy, so she had to go into the room and close the curtains...

......

The influence of the box office of a single film on the short- and medium-term stock prices of listed film and television companies is rising.

Of course, this refers to the box office of phenomenal films!

"Thai Embarrassment" and "Journey to the West" are phenomenal hits.

What type is the market most optimistic about?

It's the kind of movie that invests less than 30 million and then sells 4 or 5 billion.

"Beijing Meets Seattle" and "To Youth" are very typical of this genre.

The producer and distributor of these two films are Orange Images...

It really boosted the company's market value!

However, in the long run, we must get rid of the dependence on a single business or star, and the development of the whole industry chain is the royal road to achieve the hegemony of the film and television industry.

Huayi is very atmospheric, and packed 10 new films from 11 directors such as Xia Yongkang, Chen Guohui, Lin Shuyu, Feng Delun, Niu Chengze, Peng Haoxiang, Yu Rentai, Cheng Long, Tsui Hark, Feng Xiaogang, etc...

These are all famous directors!

The production cost of each work cannot be less than 50 million!

In comparison, Orange Images is very small, whether it is a new director plan or a bad monkey movie plan, it is aimed at new directors...

However, the success of "To Youth" proved that the new director plan was successful, and then there were Lu Yang's "Embroidered Spring Knife", Ren Pengyuan's "Hypnosis Master", Wang Ran's "Breakup Contract", Guo Shubo's "Derailment Era", Zhang Tianhui's "The Year in a Hurry (Film Version)", Wen Muye, Wang Wei's "Chinese Partner"...

Of course, there are also the works of several directors of the Twist Film Project, Yan Fei, Peng Damo "Charlotte Troubles", Song Yang, Zhang Yuyu "Iron Fist of Shame"...

The highest investment is "Chinese Partner", the movie, Ning Hao served as the producer...

A bunch of people of insight think that 'what Huayi is doing is right, and only big production can produce results!'

Then, Orange announced the 'Heavy Industry Film Project': "Gravity", "The Wandering Earth", "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", "The Great Wall", "Operation Mekong", "Wolf Warrior"...

Then, again, someone picks on the thorn, the film should go overseas ...

On May 5th, "Latent" was launched in North America, with $32 million in the first weekend, winning the North American box office championship in a single week, and its cost was $3 million...

The Orange Announcement announced the news, and by the way, announced the release dates of "The Conjuring", "Human Removal Project", "Fifty Shades of Grey" ...

Now, no one speaks at all...

Every step has been counted!

......

Cannes has been going on for three days.

Lu Xiaoran walked the red carpet with "The Dark Side" except for the opening ceremony, and then showed up at the premiere, hiding on the island most of the time...

Wearing big pants, the upper body of the red fruit, basking in the sun...

This laid-back feeling is so cozy!

Especially with Aragaki Yui by his side...

After all, Tangtang is the brand spokesperson, and he has to help the platform - he has to rush to the scene every day, what L'Oreal, Chanel, Louis Vuitton...

Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi also have brand ambassadors, and they also have to help support the field.

As for the others, they are either busy attending drinking parties to expand their network, or they are giving interviews and connecting with each other...

There is only one Gakki otaku, and she has no one she knows in Europe, let alone any endorsement to run, so she simply follows Lu Xiaoran.

Île Sainte-Margaret is beautiful and a tourist attraction in itself.

Director Lu is very relaxed, if he can pay a few days less essence, he will be more relaxed...

In the evening, the sunset shines at night.

Lu Xiaoran got up from the chair and said, 'Let's go, there is a party in the evening!'

"What do you mean by socializing?"

β€œ... It's a party that you don't want to go to, but you have to..."

Aragaki Yui seemed to understand and asked, "Am I going too?"

β€œ... It's better to go, by the way, Naomi Kawase will be there too!"

Aragaki Yui's eyes lit up: "Naomi Kawase-sensei?"

"She is the judge of this year's year, and tonight's party is MK2 to invite a few judges..."

That is, the meaning of PR...

Naomi Kawase is a very famous female director in the Japanese film industry, like Hirokazu Kore-eda, a filmmaker of the Cannes lineage, who became famous in Locarno for "Firefly" for 2,000 years, and then won the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival for "Forest of Funerals"...

For Aragaki Yui, Naomi Kawase is far more attractive than Lu Xiaoran...
