Chapter 47: Fan Ye
"Are you sure Tim Burton likes this one?"
Xu Hui asked rhetorically.
Tim Burton, President of the Jury of the Festival de Cannes.
In the three major European film festivals, the chairman of the jury of each session is very important.
Generally speaking, the taste of the chairman of the jury directly determines whether a film can win an award.
For example, when Quentin Tarantino was the president of the jury of the Cannes Film Festival, he praised Park Chan-wook to the sky, saying that this movie made him 'cry when he watched it', because he liked it, and finally won the Grand Jury Prize!
Of course, that year's Palme d'Or gave...
Tim Burton, Hollywood's alternative genius, is whimsical and uninhibited, yet has a mesmerizing magic. The flamboyant and decadent Gothic style is one of the most admired traits of this genius.
When people think of his films, they say "gothic", "dark", "quirky".
But in the market, he was successful!
It stands to reason that he shouldn't like movies that follow the rules, but he likes kung fu movies, he likes it.
So, it's understandable that he's particularly fond of stories like this!
"It's true, word has come out, and he praised the film as 'enough to go down in film history!'"
Chen Farong opened the magazine in her hand, which recorded the judges' respective evaluations of several films selected for the main competition unit this time.
Xu Hui flipped it open and looked at it.
Unexpectedly, although the evaluation is not the best, relatively speaking, it can already rank in the top three...
Generally speaking, it is difficult for movies with high media ratings to win awards, which is the consensus.
's media evaluation is so high, I didn't expect that there are judges who like it very much.
It seems that Chinese kung fu movies are really going global!
“… Is it possible to fight for it?"
has come to this point, if it can win the Palme d'Or or other awards and spread it to China, it must also play a certain role in the box office promotion of the upcoming release!
"Now?"
Chen Farong was a little hesitant.
If you aim for a certain award from the beginning, you will have a better chance of success, but the festival is almost over, and you say that you want to win the award.
Don't you care about awards?
“… In this way, we aim for the Grand Jury Prize, and we do not PR for the other awards!"
"I'll figure it out!"
Chen Farong frowned, but still took over the task...
Give it a try!
While the two were talking, a little girl came over: "Sorry to disturb you, the lady next to me wants to say a few words to this gentleman, is that okay?"
The lady next to her, who's that?
Xu Hui followed her gesture and looked, it was actually Fan Bingbing!
"I'll go out first, you can take it easy!"
Chen Farong rolled her eyes and left directly...
……
Fan Bingbing's 2010 trip to Cannes, the schedule is simply scary!
Attended 12 events in 9 days and changed 14 sets of dresses!
Journalists in China jokingly said, 'Fan Bingbing is even busier than us reporters...'
There is no way, that dragon robe really made her out of the limelight, and she has been invited to many events one after another, which all hope that this oriental beauty will bring more attention on the red carpet!
She is very satisfied, this trip to Cannes, her commercial value began to spread abroad...
It's a pity that the movie is not good, it is not very powerful.
Mediocre in every way.
The response at the scene was very cold, and the score of the key media field was also very low, only 2.2 points, and the judges simply didn't evaluate the movie much!
It's embarrassing, no one evaluates a movie, no one pays attention to it, this is the most painful...
'In Cannes, a high shelf rating is not equal to the Palme d'Or, and critics are not a jury after all, so many times the film with the highest award does not necessarily have a high rating from critics...'
This is Wang Xiaoshuai's reply when he was questioned by the domestic media about the low score of the media.
It's a pity that this sentence can only fool the layman.
The reality is very cruel, let's take the transaction as an example, only 7 countries have sold the copyright, and the price is pitiful, the highest is only 50,000 US dollars, the lowest is only 5,000 US dollars...
It's no wonder that Han Xiaoxi scolded Wang Xiaoshuai in public, estimating that in addition to wanting to hype, it was more from the bottom of his heart!
The facts are already clear, there is a high probability that nothing will be found ...
She was thinking about whether she had taken the wrong path, maybe she shouldn't have taken this drama in the first place.
Although her exposure has increased a lot through other means, she is still a little unwilling, she is an actor!
On the other hand, that Tong Liya starred in the 'Thirteenth Aunt', and then, she actually got the ticket to L'Oreal with her!
Why?
……
"Sister Bingbing!"
Xu Hui walked over with a wine glass.
“… You're famous this time!"
Fan Bingbing glanced at Xu Hui with a smile.
"Where, here is Europe, European cinema naturally rejects commercial films!"
Xu Hui is not untargeted.
European cinema focuses on the core idea, that is, on thinking, and they love philosophical films – the kind of films that audiences hate.
Although Tim Burton liked it, the judges from several other countries still gave the film a 'vulgar' evaluation without mercy!
It doesn't matter, it's good for the audience to accept it!
"Did you see me?"
“… I don't have much time for this, I've been too busy lately..."
Xu Hui was a little embarrassed.
No way, it happened to be released on the same day, and there were too few additional screenings.
In the past few days, a bunch of Chinese-language films have appeared in Cannes, including Jia Zhangke's, Du Xuhui has to attend the screening ceremony of these works...
Can't squeeze in time to watch a movie at all.
He hadn't applauded in a week!
Originally, I thought that I must complete the task of exchanging body fluids tonight, but I didn't expect Chen Farong to suddenly appear...
"I watched your..."
"Really, how does it feel?"
Xu Hui took a sip of coffee and looked up and asked.
Fan Bingbing smiled, took out a delicate cigarette case and lighter from his small bag, took out one, and lit it.
Blurry smoke spit out from the seductive red lips: "Do you still need to say it? Can't you see the pomp and circumstance of the past few days?"
"Give me one!"
Xu Hui stretched out his hand, and then Fan Bingbing took the cigarette out of his mouth and handed it directly to Xu Hui, looking at him with a smile.
Who is Pao Hui, how could he be so willing to be molested?
"Remember what I said earlier?"
“… What's that?"
"I like to look at women's ears!"
“… Do you want to see it now?"
"Which hotel are you staying in?"
“… I won't tell you!"
Fan Bingbing suddenly shook his head arrogantly, and his fair-skinned neck looked particularly charming in the light...
"It's late, I have to see it!"
Xu Hui stepped forward and pressed directly against her lower abdomen...
How can it be that you still want to leave after the teasing?
