Chapter 919 Cannes House Catalogue [2/4 Subscription Request]

Being affirmed by so many movie-loving audiences is a very happy thing for the Farewell My Concubine crew.

Originally, Zhang Chu didn't stand over to take a photo with the main creators, who would have thought that he would be called over directly by Xu Ji, and a crew just wanted to be complete.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Xu Ji led the crew members to bow to the audience, and his film career had a perfect conclusion.

Several leading actors have gathered a lot of light and shots, Zhang Guorong and Gong Li's superb acting skills and appearances have made them have a lot more crowds, and Meng Chengwang, who was unknown in Cannes before, has also attracted attention.

This accumulating actor is not fast in the acting competition with the two superstars, and he plays the role of Duan Xiaolou back to the basics!

The vast majority of the audience actually don't care about the movie script and the original book, so Zhang Chu is happy to paddle in the back.

When they came out of the movie palace, they wanted to take a group photo and sign autographs, and they surrounded Xu Ji and them, and Zhang Chu only had a few media to follow.

"Do you think there is a big gap between the movie shot by Director Xu and your original book?"

"Are you still happy with this adaptation?"

"Did Zhang Guorong find a stand-in for the Peking Opera segment?"

"According to Hollywood rumors, Paramount is already in contact with you about the film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings, so has it decided now?"

In order to get out as soon as possible, Zhang Chu replied simply, "Director Xu is Director Xu after all, this work is very well filmed, and the actors are also great." For example, Mr. Zhang Guorong and Mr. Meng Chengwang did not have Peking Opera skills before, they both studied carefully during the preparation period, practiced more during filming, and did not use stand-ins and dubbing. ”

He was a little interested in the topic of the foreign correspondent later.

How would the media know that Paramount was in contact with them?

First of all, Paramount itself would certainly not send such a message, and even if they were stupid, they would not be stupid enough to tell the news to those competitors.

On the contrary, Zhang Chu's side is more suspicious, and the so-called wait for the price to sell.

The gang Ramon found a few rivals to bid so that the copyright transfer fee could climb to a high level.

So he wisely didn't answer this question, and planned to talk to Zhou Kangtong later, so as not to slap himself in the face, it would be very painful!

Hanlin Culture Media miscalculated the form of Cannes, believing that Zhang Chu's identity as a writer or amateur screenwriter should be the kind that no one cares about in Cannes.

Who would have thought that both domestic and foreign reporters and fans would be so enthusiastic, and even Mandarin could be heard on the street.

Zhou Kang is busy socializing, and he will not follow Zhang Chu to help him block reporters, and now only Zhang Chu himself can be relied on!

I have to attend the banquet of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" tonight, and if I want to rest and fill my stomach, I can only do it now.

"Everyone, please let me go, I'll go back to the hotel first, and there will be an interview session after the screening of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" in the evening, and everyone is welcome to go there. ”

Where can Zhang Chu still take care of the female star who was left behind by himself at this time, not to mention that Lea Seydoux is not the type he likes, this French rose looks like a gloomy and decadent beauty, and once starred in the Bond girl in 007.

He doesn't think that he can go to the Spring Festival with her just by chatting for a while, and he is not a master of flirting with girls.

After returning to the hotel, Zhang Chu did not go to his room, but ordered a beer at the hotel's open-air bar, where the sea breeze is perfect for refreshing his mind!

So much has happened in the past day.

"The Lord of the Rings" is in Cannes Xiaohong, the movie "Farewell My Concubine" is a big hit, and "Ghost Blows the Lantern" is waiting at night.

In this atmosphere, I didn't have the heart to write the sequel to "The Lord of the Rings", the Two Towers, and it was clear that this was about to come to an end.

He is not a saint, it is impossible to calm his mind after going through these things, and writing with an impetuous mood will only ruin it!

Palm trees on the beach in the distance dance their leaves in the sea breeze, and the sound of waves crashing on the sand can be heard.

After drinking this bottle of beer, Zhang Chu's originally somewhat fluttering psychology finally calmed down a little.

The success of this movie has nothing to do with him, and he shouldn't attribute the success of the movie to himself, which is not a good thing, and recognize yourself as the most important.

Just as he was about to go back to his room to change his clothes, someone at the bar suddenly brought a stack of freshly printed magazines.

"Come on, come on, the first issue of this year's house magazine is hotly released, it's free, everyone can read it casually!"

The so-called house catalogue is a publication that is only distributed within the festival and only exists for a few days when the festival is held.

Half of the content is about introductions and reviews, serving the festival, and the other half is purely advertising.

Among these advertisements, there are no advertisements for Hollywood blockbusters, nor advertisements for top European literary films, but only advertisements for films that have little chance of going international.

For example, here, Zhang Chu saw the poster cover and introduction of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", but did not see the advertisements for "The Da Vinci Code", "Life of Pi", and "Farewell My Concubine", which are not needed.

The reason why the film festival is different from the award ceremony is that in addition to the competition of films, it is also a huge film market!

European films, Asian films, and African films are all bought and sold here.

The house catalogue is the promotional channel for these films, and the works that can be listed in the Cannes house catalogue are either the works of the main competition unit or spend a lot of money on publicity.

In China, there have been film companies that have bullied the majority of audiences who are not familiar with the Cannes Film Festival, and they can brag about the house program advertisements that can be put on with money, creating an instant sense of international blockbusters!

The reason why the media pay attention to the house magazine is actually to pay attention to its introduction and rating of the films in the main competition unit, which is actually an important reference for the major awards of the film festival over the years.

Works with high scores in the house journal may not be able to win awards, but works with low ratings will definitely not be awarded!

Taking into account the needs of the broad readership, the house magazine is not in French, but in English, so Zhang Chu can also understand it.

The house catalogue is run by a long-established magazine called "Daily Screen", and it is given away free of charge every day from the day before, and it can also be read on the official website.

The above content is varied, in addition to the process of the film festival, the specific screening arrangements and the news related to the released films, the film review is the content that Zhang Chu cares about the most!

"Farewell My Concubine" has been released so far today, so it is unique and occupies the entire content of the field magazine rating.

There will be four chapters breaking out today, and 100 monthly passes will be updated tomorrow.

Let's vote for Xiaobao with your monthly pass!
