Chapter Ninety-Seven: Best Screenplay and Best Director

Today's country is very lively, after all, Chen Kaige, who has been silent for many years, went to Cannes again.

This has almost become a topic that netizens are tired of, Weibo, Tianya, Tieba, Douban and other forums have gathered a large number of netizens waiting to see jokes.

Not only netizens, but also the domestic media have been following the footsteps of Chen Kaige, and Penguin Network and the movie channel also have a host.

This is the influence of Chen Kaige.

But this has nothing to do with Gu Jun, he just thinks about going home and sleeping after the award is handed out.

Speaking of which, I have to perform at the Cannes Film Festival, which is different from the Golden Horse Awards in Wanwan, which lasts for more than four hours.

The awards ceremony in Cannes is only a little more than an hour, which is simply the conscience of the industry.

Maybe the romantic French are afraid of delaying the reception after the awards ceremony.

Today's host is a foreign girl in her thirties, except for her face, everything else is quite good.

Especially the tulle evening dress, which barely concealed anything.

After a passionate eulogy of the Cannes Film Festival, the first award, 'Best Virgo Award for Caméra d'Or', was finally awarded. ’

This is an award in other units of the Cannes Film Festival, similar to the attention that Lou Ye participated in.

There are also Cornerstones of Film, Golden Camera, Film Critics Association Awards, Catholic Humanitarian Awards, Gay Palms Awards, Golden Eye Awards.

These are basically films that don't have the strength to compete for the Palme d'Or.

The winner of this award is the Meiguo movie "The Beast of the South", directed by the young director of Meiguo, Bei Wei Zetlin, who is just thirty years old, which is two words young.

The award was presented by one of the judges of this year's year, and unlike previous years, this time the judges sat directly on the right side of the podium.

Each award announced will be presented by one of the judges and one of the award presenters.

At the beginning of the festival, a few unimportant awards are handed out, and it's all routine, like a big meal is always saved for last.

Gu Jun was ready to wait for a while.

But who would have thought that the third award would be TM for Best Screenplay...

In fact, it's normal to think about it, and the awards awarded at the Cannes Film Festival awards ceremony every year are about ten.

This also includes Best Actor and Actress, Best Director, Grand Jury Prize, Jury Prize, Best Picture, and a few more weighty.

If you don't release the best screenwriter first, you won't let the winner of the grand prize.

Because the Festival de Cannes does not have a shortlist for each individual award, it naturally does not need to be introduced separately.

There was no suspense in the result, but the girl she didn't know said in a well-spoken and generous tone: "The winner of this year's best screenwriter is Gu Jun, "Gloomy world". ”

"Gloomy world" is the English title of the movie "The World is Worth It", which was given by Chen Kaige.

It means the dark, unseen world, alluding to online violence as nihilistic, untouchable but real.

Gu Jun didn't get distracted, and he didn't make jokes that he didn't hear clearly or heard wrongly.

In fact, he had already guessed, and from the moment Chen Kaige called him here, he had an idea.

After all, the awards of the film festival are selected by the people, and who dares to guarantee that the eight or nine judges of each session will not reveal any news.

It's impossible, even if your mouth is really tight, someone will pry it open for you.

Not violence, but profiteering.

There are many distributors in Cannes who are waiting to buy the full broadcast of the film, and knowing the news in advance can allow them to start purposefully and calmly pick up the leaks.

Just as a confession is not a clarion call for attack, but a symbol of victory.

In the eyes of some people, the award ceremony is just the announcement of the results that some people know in advance.

Gu Jun, who clenched his fists, stood up, although his mind was not blank, but his joy could not be concealed.

This is the first time he has come into this world to be recognized.

Gu Jun's position was only six or seven meters away from the podium, and he stepped onto the stage three or five seconds later.

Walking to the center of the podium, he received a certificate tied in a cylinder with a red ribbon from the presenter.

Gu Jun, who held this certificate in his hand, which obviously weighed only a few grams, felt that what he was holding in his hand was a world.

Holding the certificate up at the level of his head, Gu Jun said excitedly: "I am very grateful for the recognition of me at the romantic Cannes Film Festival." I would like to thank Director Chen Kaige for his support.

To be honest, I feel uneasy about winning this award, because Director Kaige has put a lot of effort into it, at least much heavier than me.

I would also like to thank a girl named Anxi, who has been discussing and even arguing with me day and night about every detail.

Thank you to everyone in my life who has helped me, because of you, I am standing on the stage of Cannes.

It's my first time at the Cannes Film Festival, but I don't think it will be the last, and I hope to be on this stage as an actor next time.

Finally, I would like to thank the Festival de Cannes once again. The presence of Cannes is a blessing for filmmakers all over the world. ”

In the thunderous sound of applause, Gu Jun returned to his seat.

With a certificate in his hand, he still had the feeling of dreaming.

Indeed, the screenwriting award is not too important.

But that's only for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actor.

It is very rare to win any award at an international film festival like Cannes.

There are more than a dozen domestic films that have won the three highest international awards.

There are countless other awards that have been won.

However, only three Chinese screenwriters have won the screenwriting award at the International A-category Film Festival.

The first time was in 2008, when Wang Xiaoshuai, the screenwriter of "Left and Right", won the Silver Bear Award for Best Screenplay at the Berlin Film Festival.

The second time was in 2009, when Mei Feng, the screenwriter of "Spring Breeze Drunken Night", won the Best Screenplay Award at the Cannes Film Festival.

The third time is today, May 27, 2012, Gu Jun won the third place.

So far, this year's Cannes Film Festival has ····· also began the most exciting part.

The most important awards, including Best Actor and Queen, Best Director, Jury Award, and Best Film Award, were announced in turn.

No matter who wins the award, it has absolutely nothing to do with Gu Jun.

Because he is the third male in "The World is Worth It", and there is no Best Supporting Actor award at an international film festival like Cannes.

The Cannes Film Festival, with no guest performances and no tirade acceptance speeches, came to an end very quickly.

"Over the Mountains", which has a rating of 3.3, is a scene with two heroines, and the heroine Christina Frotto and Cosmina Statan are the same international actresses.

Mads Middleson, the actor of "Hunting" with a score of 2.8, won the best actor.

"Winged Angel" with a score of 2.8 won the Jury Prize.

The winner of the Palme d'Or, which represents the best picture, fell to director Michael Haneke, who is still 70 years old and strong.

His work is the film "Love", which explores the love and survival of the elderly.

If Gu Jun remembers correctly, the film would also represent Austria at the Oscars and win the award for Best Foreign Language Film.

Chen Kaige was not for nothing, he won the award for best director.

This is a re-recognition of his directorial strength.

Although it is not as heavy as the Palme d'Or, it is the highest recognition of the director's position.

The scene that Gu Jun thought that Lao Chen would be lost did not appear.

This shows that he doesn't have too deep an obsession, which is actually quite good.
