There is no such thing as a feast.

When Sam, Merry, and Pippin watched with tears in their eyes as Gandalf, Frodo and the others stepped onto the elven ship and prepared to travel west, the whole story came to an end.

When Zhang Chu solemnly knocked down the three words "end of the book", the whole person was also a little uncomfortable.

After all, the elves left Middle-earth, and Frodo did not control his ****, and countless wars of all sizes involved various races.

At the end, the hobbits return to their hometown of Shire, with a completely different state of mind under the same description.

"I'm finally done, and I hope readers enjoy the story!"

We've finished talking about it, but there's still a lot to be said about Middle-earth, so there's plenty of room for the future.

He saved the first draft, then stood up and moved his neck and body, moving his eyes from side to side.

It's already past eleven o'clock in Yanjing time, and even the international metropolis has fallen silent.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, which is most suitable for codeword writing homework.

Although he finished writing, he didn't have any intention of going to sleep and rest, and he was still preparing to watch the closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival live, his first trip to the award for an adaptation of a film.

You can't go to the scene to see it win the award, but you can't miss the webcast either!

At this time, Cannes is the time when the attention is the highest, when night falls, the red carpet dozens of meters long outside the Palais du Cinémath is already full of media reporters and fans.

Many Hollywood stars came here at this time, and there are also many international supermodels who use this place as a stage to show themselves.

After Zhang Chu looked at the picture projected from the Internet to the TV, he actually felt in a trance.

He had been to all the places in the picture, and although he hadn't stayed for a few days, "The red carpet is so short, why does this picture look so long?

Some movie bloggers and fashion bloggers are updating the frontal high-definition photos of those stars on Weibo, and at the same time analyzing the clothes, jewelry, shoes and so on they are wearing.

The red carpet outfits of different levels make people want to feel the demons dancing, and many people want to win by surprise, but they are just a little weird, and they don't overwhelm others.

At this time, the Tencent video live broadcast page shows that more than 800,000 people are already watching the live broadcast, and this is just the red carpet!

It's a very novel experience to see the barrage on the TV, Zhang Chu enjoys this taste, although the barrage may block those faces, but it is very comfortable for so many people from all over the world to discuss the same thing together, he is not watching the live broadcast alone, there are so many friends together!

"Wait... I seem to have seen Xu Qinglei just now, aren't her fans known as international movie stars? hahaha, there are no reporters on the red carpet to shoot her, she is still taking care of her own concave shape, it's so stupid!"

"I feel sorry for Xu mm, I guess only my own agent is taking pictures, hahahaha"

"The one in black in front of her is the foreign pheasant? actually rubbed the red carpet, and the security guards went up to ask her to hurry up. ”

"Sure enough, Sister Gong Li is domineering enough, let her go alone after clearing the scene, and there are so many shots, even if you have the strength, you can eat in a foreign country!"

"Farewell My Concubine crew is on the scene! I hope good luck tonight!"

"Zhang Guorong is so handsome"

"The favorites are different, these foreign journalists are filming them!"

"Wow, I just heard Chinese shouting cheers?

Zhang Chu feels that there are not as many highlights on the red carpet as the barrage, and all the people who post the barrage are all drama spirits, and all of them are talents, and he almost forgot to cheer for his film!

His stomach was rumbling, he had eaten dinner at six o'clock in the afternoon, and now he needed some energy.

In the summer night, many takeaway businesses have not rested, especially when it is so close to Houhai, and the business of barbecue restaurants is booming.

He ordered himself a takeout of kebabs and a cold beer, and began to wait eagerly.

……

Zhou Kang sat in his living room, his laptop in front of him broadcasting a live stream of Cannes.

His wife and son have fallen asleep, but he can only wear headphones to watch the live broadcast, and use WeChat to communicate with the employees in the company from time to time.

All the employees of Hanlin Culture Media Company don't have time to sleep tonight, no matter whether "Farewell My Concubine" can win the award in the end, it is all they need public relations.

"Now that the red carpet has also started to be live, it is really smelly and long!"

If you can fast-forward, Zhou Kang hopes to jump directly to the time of the awards.

"Farewell My Concubine" is a story that belongs to Xu Ji, a story that belongs to Zhang Guorong, and a story that belongs to Zhang Chu.

He knew that the reason why Universal Pictures had been not offering was to wait for the results of the awards, and if he could win the award smoothly, everything would develop naturally.

If you can't win the prize, or if you get all the chicken ribs, then surely the negotiations will definitely restart.

The most important award at the Cannes Film Festival is naturally the Palme d'Or, the highest award for more than 20 films in the main competition, and no Chinese-language film has ever won this award.

The Palme d'Or in Cannes, along with the Golden Bear in Berlin and the Golden Lion in Venice, is known as the highest award at the three major film festivals.

In her previous life, Gong Li participated in the films that won the top awards of the above three film festivals, and the weight of this heavy work is not something that can be achieved by one or two red carpets! The reason why she can eat well in Europe has a lot to do with her previous works.

The Grand Jury Prize is the second highest prize after the Palme d'Or, and belongs to the category of competition for the Palme d'Or that loses but is of very good quality.

In addition to these two, there are also Best Director, Best Actor, Actress, and Screenwriter Awards!

It's just that its setting is a little different from the Oscars, first of all, these actor awards are not divided into leading roles and supporting roles, and there is no shortage of supporting roles in the history of the Cannes Film Festival who counterattacked and became the actor and actress.

As for the screenwriter award, there is no difference between original and adapted, and Zhang Chu was automatically shortlisted for this award because he was the screenwriter of "Farewell My Concubine".

However, the screenwriter award is actually the smallest award, almost no one cares who the screenwriter of a movie is, everyone's eyes are on the actor, actress, and best director!

Xu Ji once won the best director in Cannes, and now whether he can make a second seal has become a big suspense.

"The best thing is that Farewell My Concubine swept all the awards, but that shouldn't be possible. Although Zhou Kang is a marginal person in the entertainment industry, he also knows that the organizing committee will definitely adopt the strategy of dividing pork, and it is impossible for one film to win all the awards.

"Farewell My Concubine" is competitive in any award, and it is the highest in the main competition unit in terms of overall completion, whether it is the two male protagonists or the heroine Juxian, there is an excellent interpretation.

……

Probably the delivery man is the first time to come to the alley to deliver takeaways, this Ya'er Hutong is a rich area in the rich area, there are almost no ordinary residents, he is a little lost in the alley!

Zhang Chu had no choice but to take the key and mobile phone to pick up people at the door of the house, and the door of the house not far away was really dark under the illumination of the antique lantern, which made people can't help but think of second- or third-rate domestic horror movies.

The barbecue was still hot wrapped in tin foil, and he opened the cold beer and took two sips of it, which was extremely refreshing with kebabs.

"I'll go, and I'll be the first to award the Best Screenplay Award!"

He originally wanted to have a good taste of the food, but when he saw the list of nominees, he was a little nervous.

is obviously just a writer in this life, but he has already won the British Oscar and Emmy Awards for Best Screenplay, and has been nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Screenplay, and these nominations and awards are all brought by "Sherlock".

Don't look at him, he has been a screenwriter so many times, but every time he has gained something, he belongs to the kind with the best awards.

All the films shortlisted for the main competition unit are automatically shortlisted for the Best Screenplay Award, and the fans on the barrage are about to cover the screens tightly, and they are all cheering for Zhang Chu, although this is actually useless at all.

"Wow, "Farewell My Concubine" is the first time to win the award tonight, see how lucky Zhang Chu is!"

"It's very well written, and I think Zhang Chu has a chance. ”

"Is it me Mars? Now I know that he not only writes, but also goes to work as a screenwriter for movies......"

"Call Teacher Xiao Zhang, it's really unreasonable not to give an award for such an excellent work!"

"I don't understand, I feel like I've learned English for the fourth and sixth levels in vain."

"Hopefully a good start and not go unnoticed tonight. ”

Zhang Chu himself was so nervous that his palms were sweating, and he poured another sip of beer and stared at the elderly white man who came up with an envelope on the TV screen.

The style of painting in Cannes is not the same as the Oscars, the presenter did not make any greeting preparations, and walked directly to the microphone and said in English with a strong accent: "The winner of the best screenplay at the 72nd Cannes Film Festival is Zhang Chu's "Farewell My Concubine" from China, congratulations!"

There was no mud and water, no pretentious hanging appetite, and Zhang Chu's name was directly pronounced!

The camera camera immediately switched to the movie crew, Old Man Xu stood up excitedly, and Gong Li and Zhang Guorong around him grinned, and at the same time kept applauding.

However, after the crew searched around, the camera did not find the young man's face.

The barrage surged hundreds of times when Zhang Chu's name was pronounced, so dense that it directly blocked the screen, and the number of people online late at night exceeded 2 million!

"I'll it, and really get the prize?"

"Congratulations to Zhang Chuda!"

"Great, good start!"

"2333 can win awards here, Zhang Chuda, don't abandon us to make a movie!"

"I have a hunch that "Farewell My Concubine" is going to start killing people next!"

The video screen was tightly blocked by the barrage army, Zhang Chu could only hear Old Man Xu in full Chinese helping to say the acceptance speech, he thought that the hope of winning the award was not great, the acceptance speech was not handed to him, he could only listen to how the old man improvised.

"The real winner didn't come to receive the award because he was still in college at this time, so I will collect it on my behalf. Personally, I am very happy, because a good movie must be inseparable from the support of excellent scripts, and it is really a blessing that Chinese films now have such a reserve force! I hope that more young people will join the film industry in the future!"

Obviously, the old man can speak English, but he insists on speaking Chinese on this occasion.

The news in Zhang Chu's mobile phone has begun to bombard, and it turns out that so many people are paying attention to the Cannes Film Festival.

He doesn't have time to reply one by one now, so he can only ignore these for the first time and send a message of thanks to Old Man Xu, otherwise no one will help bring back the trophy.

The award for Best Screenplay is more important for professionals, and you may be able to find buyers for many of the books you have in your hand.

But Zhang Chu is different, he is just a cross-border, and writing books is the main direction.

Winning this award will not make him increase the price of the script, and no one will specifically ask him to write the script, but will only ask him to adapt his own.

His official forums, post bars, and fan stations are all cheering, and the very few night owls who haven't slept can't help but like this news after swiping it!

There are so many professional screenwriters in China, but he was left behind as an amateur screenwriter.

The award ceremony was still in progress, and everyone began to present the awards after dedicating applause to Zhang Chu, who was not present, and Xu Ji, who was sturdy.

However, the award just now seems to have used up all the good luck of "Farewell My Concubine"!

The actor who had high hopes did not give Zhang Guorong, and Gong Li also accompanied the actress throughout the whole process, and Mr. Xu also failed to win the second one for the best director.

Zhang Chu couldn't help but feel a little nervous sitting in front of the TV, there are only two awards left in the back, is there still a chance for "Farewell My Concubine"?

The president of this year's jury, Pique, announced the Grand Jury Prize, which was taken away by the Polish film "Cold War"!

"The last award should be ours, it can't just be a chicken consolation prize like the Best Screenplay Award!"

Although the award was his own, Zhang Chu didn't mind calling it chicken ribs at all, and the weight was much worse than the rest of the awards.

If it's really just this one award, it will definitely be a big upset.

Marcello, the executive chairman of the film organizing committee, looked at the nervous crews on the scene, several of them belonged to the kind that did not receive anything, and a few crews won awards such as actor and actress.

"The Palme d'Or is not an easy matter every year, but this year there was a film that stood out in the first round of discussion among the judges, and we had already decided on the Palme d'Or in the first round of voting, and none of the judges objected. This kind of harmonious scene has hardly happened in my memory. ”

The executive chairman is the one who needs to deal with the outside world, and he is more active and talks a lot more than the previous award presenters.

Normally, these awards are finalized after up to three rounds of voting by nine judges, but the most competitive awards are directly determined this year, which is something that everyone cares about.

Zhang Chu clenched his fists, wanting to hear the name he had said countless times in his mind from inside!

At this time, the director also cut the scene to the Farewell My Concubine crew again, and will they be the winners of the Palme d'Or who broke the score record of the Cannes house magazine?

In the open space outside the movie palace, movie lovers suddenly shouted the English name of "Farewell My Concubine" in a torn high voice, and then most of them shouted along, and the only Palme d'Or in their minds was this one!

"Congratulations to "Farewell My Concubine" for winning the Palme d'Or at the 72nd Cannes Film Festival!"

This sentence made I don't know how many night owls on the land of China cheered at the same time, and fans, film industry practitioners, and the media all sincerely celebrated this movie!
