The Cannes Film Festival is one of the three major film festivals in Europe and the most influential. The participation procedure is as follows: the film company submits the film registration recommendation to the film festival, and after the evaluation by the film festival experts, the qualified films will receive the invitation of the film festival, and the unqualified ones can only be promoted in the peripheral exhibition area at their own expense.

As early as a month ago, Xu Cun asked Jeffrey to submit an application recommendation for "ET" to the Cannes Film Festival in the name of DreamWorks, along with an hour-long sample of "ET".

At that time, "ET" had not yet been filmed, and Tang Shuxuan and Mak Tsai Shan were busy for a week and temporarily edited a sample of "ET" without an ending (such a thing often occurs in the three major film festivals.) ）。

Shanzaishan and Tang Shuxuan's ability to edit movies is very good, like Zhang Shuping's editing technique was learned from Tang Shuxuan in the early years, although the two worked together to edit "ET" Although the rhythm is average, but the artistic connotation is much more profound, this kind of film is not suitable for screening in cinemas, but it is definitely suitable for participating in international film competitions.

A week after handing out the submissions, DreamWorks received an invitation to the Cannes Film Festival jury, but it is still unknown whether it will be shortlisted.

In fact, Hollywood blockbusters have always only participated in exhibitions and did not participate in competitions, and this was the case with the previous "ET" - as we all know, the Cannes Film Festival has always only focused on art films, and Hollywood blockbusters are generally not too artistic. Therefore, even if the vast majority of Hollywood blockbusters are registered, they will not be selected.

However, unlike Spielberg's choice, Xu Cun is ready to compete with "ET".

Xu Cun is not a beautiful person, and it is impossible for him to screen "ET" with the president and his wife at the White House. If "ET" can't shine at the Cannes Film Festival, Xu Cun can be sure that his box office allocation will never exceed 20 percent.

A difference of one percent may be a few million dollars, which is converted into tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Therefore, Xu Cun must try his best to get the highest proportional distribution.

Moreover, "ET" is not only a Hollywood blockbuster, it is also a film with humanities and arts.

Moreover, "ET" is a film with a novel form and unique techniques, and in terms of innovation alone, few films in this era can be beaten, and there should be people who like it among those filmmakers who advocate art.

Therefore, "ET" is not without the possibility of winning awards.

What makes Xu Cun feel cold is that the invitation to the Cannes Film Festival jury has been received, but there is no news on whether he will be shortlisted.

……

The first day of departure.

Zhong Chuhong said to the dejected Xu Cun: "Cheer up, you are the soul of Dreamworks, you are like this, can they still have confidence?" Besides, isn't it normal for Hollywood blockbusters to not be able to get in? You're not the kind of film director who pursues art, so why bother with it? ”

"Don't you know that if "ET" can win an award at the film festival, it will definitely have a huge impact on the box office of "ET"!

Back then, Hu Jinquan spent five years filming "Chivalrous Girl", which cost a lot of money, but the box office hit the streets. Later, "Chivalrous Girl" entered the competition unit at the Cannes Film Festival, although it only won a technical award in the end, but when "Chivalrous Girl" was re-released, it made a lot of money at the box office because of this award.

Also, Sister Tang's "Mrs. Dong" is so literary and artistic that no theater in Xiangjiang is even willing to show it. As a result, after being shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival, major theaters immediately rushed to release it, and it also got a lot of box office in Xiangjiang, and it made a lot of money when it was released in Taiwan Bend.

The two box office encounters before and after "Chivalrous Girl" and Sister Tang's "Mrs. Dong" all show that once a Chinese film is shortlisted for an international film festival, it will inevitably be applauded and popular. Xu Cun explained to Zhong Chuhong.

"Then you can't be sluggish! I like "ET", and I'm sure many people will like "ET" as much as I do, so "ET" will definitely have a good result, you have a little confidence in yourself, you are the number one director in Asia, Xu Cun, who has created several miracles! Zhong Chuhong encouraged Xu Cundao.

"It's not that I'm not without confidence, I'm greedy, I'll tell you the truth, I'm not worried that "ET" doesn't have good results, but I want to get more with "ET". Xu Cundao.

"More?" Zhong Chuhong repeated in surprise.

"Hmmm! I want to build a big-entertainment-music empire, and I want my voice to be heard in the entertainment industry! Xu Cun said ambitiously.

Zhong Chuhong looked Xu Cun up and down twice, pouted, "What?" Do you still want to be emperor? Then get a seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courtyards? ”

Originally, Xu Cun had already condensed a lot of domineering, and even showed a trace of momentum that looked down on the world, but after listening to Zhong Chuhong's disdainful words, the momentum on Xu Cun's body instantly leaked out. Then, he said with a very weak momentum: "Yes, I wonder if Honggu can become the emperor of this book?" ”

"Fulfill your big-headed ghost, hurry up and get ready, you'll leave tomorrow morning, have you packed up your things?" Zhong Chuhong said.

"Not yet, or you can clean it up for me." Xu Cun kicked his nose and said on his face.

"Don't help!" Zhong Chuhong refused without hesitation. Moreover, Zhong Chuhong was ready to turn around and leave directly as before.

However, without waiting for Zhong Chuhong to turn around, Xu Cun said in a very decadent voice: "Ah Hong, can you hug me?" ”

Listening to this, Zhong Chuhong's feet are a meal. But the next moment, Zhong Chuhong was still ready to leave.

But at this moment, Xu Cun said in a pleading voice: "Ah Hong, it is inevitable that you will hug and hug when filming, can you hug me as an actor who plays your rival role?" I...... needs your comfort. ”

Xu Cun's words have all been said to this point, how can Zhong Chuhong, who already has a good impression of Xu Cun, bear to leave?

After struggling for a while, Zhong Chuhong turned around and walked to Xu Cun and hugged Xu Cun gently.

Then, Zhong Chuhong was ready to let go of Xu Cun.

But what Zhong Chuhong didn't expect was that just when she was about to let go, Xu Cun actually hugged her tightly in his arms - Xu Cun's strength in hugging Hu Comet was so great that Hu Comet almost couldn't breathe.

Zhong Chuhong is not a woman who gives in easily-she did not hesitate to push Xu Cun, ready to push Xu Cun away.

But just when Zhong Chuhong's hand touched Xu Cun, an excited female voice suddenly came from outside: "Ah Cun, "ET" has entered the main competition unit, and it has been set as the opening film of the Cannes Film Festival!" ”

This exciting news made Xu Cun and Zhong Chuhong stunned at the same time!

Immediately, Xu Cun, who reacted a little faster, held Zhong Chuhong's face and kissed Zhong Chuhong's sexy red lips fiercely!

This time, Zhong Chuhong, who did not give in easily, was also blinded - all she had left in her mind was: "It's over!" The first kiss is gone......"
