said that at the last Cannes Film Festival, "Paradise Cinema" only won the Best Actor and missed the Palme d'Or, Xu Hui was very unwilling, and at the end of the awards, he complained about "Adele's Life" in front of all reporters: "I think "Paradise Cinema" didn't win the Palme d'Or because Duoduo is not gay!"

Of course, at that time, Xu Hui was just a commercial film director who was slightly famous in China, and he complained as much as he liked, just like Mr. Bi forcibly touched the porcelain Cannes.

The grasshopper shakes the tree, only adding to the joke!

The results of the Oscars came out, and it was a slap in the face.

"Paradise Cinema" is the fourth of the five mentions, and they are all relatively heavy awards - everyone knows that "12 Years a Slave" won the best film and accounted for the light of the theme!

What's more, "The Life of Adele", which shined at the Cannes Palme d'Or last year, did not win the César Award!

Roman Polanski won Best Director for "Venus in Fur"!

What does that mean?

Obviously, the judges did not approve of "Adele's Life" either!

What made Cannes even more embarrassed was that on the eve of the Cannes Film Festival, Abdai Kosych announced that he would auction off his palms in order to shoot a new play...

Last year's Cannes Film Festival awarded the Palme d'Or to three people for the first time.

Traditionally, only a director can win the Palme d'Or, but "The Life of Adele" became the only film to have won the Palme d'Or together with the director and two actresses. The three of them are considered indispensable, and the Cannes move is a testament to the success of the story.

But now, according to the Hollywood Report, Tunisian-French director Abdei Kosich is going to auction off the Palme d'Or trophy he won last year to raise money for his new drama "Fate, My Love"...

This is a slap in the face, I took the new palm, but I don't have the money to make a new movie?

Yes, France spares no effort to support local films.

They have a film support bill that takes a special surtax of about 11% from each movie ticket to support homegrown productions.

And with the continuous development of the television industry and new media, the original single tax source has been expanded to DVD sales, online video on demand, TV station screenings, and so on.

This large amount of money is managed and run by the National Film Center (CNC), which is part of the Ministry of Culture, in two main ways: automatic funding and selective funding.

CNC accepts hundreds of candidate scripts across the country every year, and then selects dozens of them to give no more than 50% financial support. If the film can be profitable, the filmmaker needs to return the money to CNC, and if it fails at the box office, it does not have to pay back.

This system is very good, it guarantees the creation of literary films, and encourages the development of local films, which is of course hated by Hollywood. Because their surtax also includes foreign films, but the tax is not refunded, but goes directly to the fund account.

is like "Titanic", which paid 12 million euros in taxes in France that year, which was enough to make at least 5 local films.

However, they did not support Abdai Kosich's new film!

This one is intriguing...

Probably the script is too rubbish, and everyone can see that it is impossible to recover the cost...

It's embarrassing that the director who supports Cannes can't even get the money to shoot it, maybe just like Léa Seydoux, one of the leading actors in "The Life of Adele", publicly bombarded the sentence 'Abdai Kosich is a spoiled child with no one in his eyes, and there is still a lot to learn.' ’

And what about Xu Hui, who was ignored by them?

With "Cinema Paradiso", he was successfully crowned the Oscar for Best Director, and not only that, "Cinema Paradiso" has accumulated more than 300 million US dollars at the global box office, which is definitely a typical case of applause and popularity.

Pierre Lescul, the new president of the Cannes Film Festival, learned that "Life is Beautiful" wanted to participate in the European Film Festival, and specially called to invite Xu Hui to participate in Cannes...

This is one of the reasons why "Life is Beautiful" was absent from the Berlin Film Festival.

……

14, Martinez Hotel.

The Hotel Martinez is the official hotel of Cannes, and many directors and actors from third world countries choose to settle here.

Mid-to-high-end, certainly not as luxurious as the Martinez Hotel!

Xu Hui didn't come here because he was resting here, but to meet Jiang Wen.

It's true that he is a director, but he is also a fan, looking at the entire domestic film industry, only Jiang Wen has the ability to make works that make him feel amazing!

Well, Xu Hui is a fan of Jiang Wen...

Jiang Wen was wearing a light gray suit and was busy chatting with reporters, while Ma Ke sat next to him and watched his partner brag calmly.

The reporter was a little nervous, after all, Jiang Wen's name as a reporter killer was there.

"Why did you choose to come to Cannes this time to promote?"

Why is this also a problem?

There is no level.

Jiang Wen decisively followed the nonsense: "Because you are here, I will come when you come." ”

Xu Hui is chatting with Ma Ke about the situation of "One Step Away", according to Ma Ke, "One Step Away" is still being edited and should be released in the Chinese New Year.

“… My "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" may be in the summer file, but this year we will have a Huiwen release in the Chinese New Year file, "Wong Fei Hung: Dragon City Annihilation"

The reporter obviously also noticed Xu Hui, and when he heard his words, he was very interested in asking: "Then which one do you think is the box office great?"

“… This, ask Jiang Wen, I only know the title of "One Step Away"..."

"And what do you think of One Step Away?"

Xu Hui was almost speechless, what kind of reporter is this?

Didn't you say that the movie hasn't been released yet, evaluate an egg?

However, he still shook his face with a little wit: "... Uh, I don't think it's as good as Let the Bullets Fly..."

"Why?"

The reporter is very good.

"Because "One Step Away" doesn't have me, you must know that I am a box office lucky star... In fact, at the beginning, I was scheduled to play the male lead, but later Director Jiang Wen felt that my image was too radiant and decided to play it myself..."

Xu Hui's acting skills are very good, and this obviously nonsense is like the truth.

“… Really?"

The reporter asked Jiang Wen.

"That's right, I'm worried that Director Xu Hui will take away the brilliance of all the actresses in the movie if he plays my role!"

Jiang Wen also followed the nonsense...

……

The reporter was harshly teased, and then left decisively...

Jiang Wen looked at Xu Hui with a complicated expression: "Congratulations, "Paradise Cinema" is very good!"

These people, on the surface, look down on the Oscars, don't look down on Hollywood, and the phrase 'Seet movie' on their lips remembers that at the press conference of "One Step Away", he said: "There are really no good movies in the United States, interstellar travel back and forth..."

Then, he went to shoot Star Wars: Rogue Story himself...

The Oscar accolades are attractive to all filmmakers!

Except for Woody Allen...

“… Thank you. ”

"Teacher Zheng is looking for you?"

"Hmm..."

“… You didn't agree?" Before the words came out, Jiang Wen smiled: "Also, with your current qualifications, as long as it is not a mistake of principle, you don't have to be afraid of anyone at all!"

A mistake of principle?

Treason with the enemy?

Is the harem a mistake of principle?

"Don't mention this, tomorrow "Beautiful Life" will premiere, give my brother a show?"

"Of course!"

Xu Hui personally invited, and of course Jiang Wen had to agree.

"Can you ask, "Life is Beautiful"... What type?"

“… Uh, it should be considered a comedy, you will know when you watch it tomorrow!"
