Chapter 314 Scene 314 The first time to show your head
Due to the large number of fans from all over the world, the French police, who felt the great pressure, were forced to block many more streets, three helicopters have been patrolling and circling over the Avenue de la Cruise, and after 911, European countries have strengthened anti-terrorism prevention, not to mention that the French government is not only worried about terrorists, but also to prevent various trade union strikers from causing trouble.
Of course, even this could not stop the infiltration of French radicals, with the auto unions holding signs reading "Give Cannes peace back, cancel the festival", and many more anti-war activists across Europe, chanting slogans such as "Stop the invasion of Iraq, boycott Hollywood."
With the magnificent music on the scene, the red carpet was officially opened, and the closing ceremony officially began.
The presenter grabbed Harvey Weinstein, the owner of Miramax and Hollywood's notorious cunning fat man, and asked him what he thought of the festival.
"I like this year's Cannes Film Festival very much, I think this is the most Haode in the history of the Cannes Film Festival, we see films from all over Shijie, including action movies, martial arts films, which opens a new way for the Cannes Film Festival."
The Hollywood distribution predator who introduced "Hero" at a low price is singing a high note for his company's films.
At this time, reporters and fans suddenly boiled, because the Hollywood delegation appeared after the French filmmakers, and the Oscar-winning actress Charlize Theron appeared in a backless silver dress, murdering countless rolls of film for the reporters on the scene.
More than 100 countries around the world will broadcast tonight's ceremony, and the number of journalists alone will reach an all-time high of more than 800.
"Now appearing on the red carpet is the most haode actress in the East, Zhang Manyu~ The expression on her face seems to be expecting something, and the French movie "Clean" has won her a lot of popularity~"
After several groups of European filmmakers appeared silent, a black BMW car appeared, and the appearance of Chinese movie star Zhang Manyu and his French director Olivier caused a burst of screams and cheers on the scene, and many little girls were shouting Maggie Cheung's French name, and their enthusiasm was no less than that of the groups of Hollywood movie stars just now.
The crew of the Korean drama "Old Boy", which followed closely, was very inconspicuous, and Choi Min-sik's appearance did not seem to cause any reaction, but just walked silently across the red carpet.
When the applause rang out again, it was the team of judges led by Quentin Tarantino who entered, the jury looked very low-key, and no one even found the Chinese director Xu Ke inside, and the big directors of the jury shook hands and chatted with the acquaintances around them, all of which looked very pleasant, and the camera suddenly switched to a car behind, only to see a tall and fat white man coming down inside,
The French host said in an envious tone: "Okay, I was talking about him just now, it's strange if he doesn't come~ Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 911", this is the biggest hit of the Palme d'Or tonight~ This is a shocking movie, only the jury knows that he Weishenme came to Cannes again, in the 55th, he directed "Cobalon Campus Incident" to win the 55th anniversary special commemorative award, is he here to take away the Palme d'Or this time? ”
Just when the superstar directors were taking photos on the red carpet, a small group of people broke out with encouraging screams, and the host said strangely:
"Who's here again? Wait a minute, the list in my hand is not explained...... "The camera turned to the person who walked into the red carpet in a straight black suit, Li Xiaole appeared in high spirits, the left side was holding a cheongsam with a blue and white porcelain pattern, Sun Li who was down-and-out, and on the right hand was Zhang Guorong, a handsome guy with an extraordinary short beard and temperament, and a handsome and beautiful guy and beauty from the East, which immediately aroused everyone's strong interest, and the camera was aimed at this side, clicking.
"That's a representative from China, that actor is Cheng Dieyi in "Farewell My Concubine", oh~ I remembered that he was Zhang Guorong~ Hong Kong's most haode actor Zhang Guorong, but who is next to him?" The host took the information in surprise and explained:
"This is a group of crews specially invited by the organizing committee, which is the Chinese film "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" in the competition unit, and they won the first place in the voting for the "most wanted movie" in the ten days of the film festival, my God, this is the first time that this vote has been won by Chinese mainland film...... This director is called Li ...... Small...... Happy"
As the French host pronounced this awkward Chinese name tone by tone, the scene also broke out into applause, and Quentin Tarantino, the chairman of the rating, came over and patted Li Xiaole's shoulder with a smile to say hello:
"Hey, you took my laser sword, and you took the number one spot in my 'Favorite Movie', you're such a maddening little guy."
"I'm sorry ~ Quentin, I don't know what's going on, I can only say that "Kill Bill 2" is a great movie, it's just that you're so famous, the audience may have been aesthetically fatigued." Li Xiaole shook his head and said modestly, he was also the first time to participate in this kind of international film festival, and he was very excited, he was just in the mood to come for sightseeing, and he had the opportunity to walk the red carpet, but fortunately, Xu Zhen had to come over with the clothes, or he really didn't know where to get clothes for Sun Li and walk the red carpet in three days.
"I think they voted for you because you look cute~" Quentin Tarantino Hahadaxiao, taking him to introduce the rest of his peers.
Although many filmmakers in the industry are crazy to scream for Li Xiaole, the global media obviously doesn't know the director of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", so they all came to Zhang Yimou, who was belated:
"Director Zhang, what do you think of Director Li Xiaole, who won the first opinion vote for the 'movie I want to watch the most', do you know him?"
Zhang Yimou was stunned for a moment, and then he said: "Of course I know director Li Xiaole, did he win the first place in the vote?" Why didn't I know there was such an award? Yes, he is my friend and the director of the youngest generation in China, and he has more influence in China than I do. ”
"When will he win the Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival?" The reporters were curious to probe Zhang Yimou's tone.
"I don't know this, but I think when Director Li won the award, I must have been much younger when I made "Alive"." Zhang Yimou spoke cautiously, but without losing humor, which made the atmosphere of the scene seem very relaxed.
"Quentin ~ Can you introduce your friend?" The reporters watched Quentin Tarantino pull Li Xiaole to introduce various peers, and handed over the microphone one after another.
"Haode, look at it, this is my new friend Li Xiaona~" Quentin Tarantino happily pulled Li Xiaole over and asked the reporter to take a photo for them.
"It's Li Xiao...... Happy. Li Xiaole smiled and corrected the pronunciation of his name.
"Excuse me, what do you think of Li Xiaole's movies, and what do you think of his movies?" The BBC reporter asked as he handed over the microphone.
"I can't say that, you know I can't say anything about it until the award is announced." After passing the question, Quentin Tarantino put his arm around Li Xiaole's shoulder and added: "However, director Li Xiaole has an extraordinary ability to understand the story, and I believe that we will see him often in Cannes in the future." ”
In the on-site interview, the pictures of the scene have been transmitted to Sina and Sohu portals through the Internet, "Li Crazy Cannes Stunning Red Carpet", "Li Crazy and Quentin have become obsessed friends", "Li Xiaole has become the darling of foreign media"
News can be transformed into countless on-site photo news, and each of them has become a domestic network news point.
Li Xiaole's unexpected heated discussion also made the finale of the red carpet ceremony, sitting in a shark inflatable boat from the sea, and the black superstar Will Smith of the crew of "Shark Story" had a lot fewer shots, which did not achieve the expected explosive effect, which made the organizing committee feel a little unprepared.
And these moments of Li Xiaole talking to Quentin Tarantino, Ben Affleck, Maggie Cheung, Zhang Guorong, Sun Li and others have also become eternal images.
Although it is not as star-studded as the Oscars, this Cannes Film Festival does have the most stars in history, and so many Asian filmmakers shine to make this festival have an extra color from the East.
But according to Nielsen's real-time statistics, more than 20 million people still watched the live broadcast. and fans of celebrity idols from all walks of life, as well as relatives and friends, are among them; People who support Lee's madness also watched the opening scene of the ceremony through the Internet at this time.
The award ceremony officially began, and the theme of this year's edition was "Life and Film", and the classic clips of those legendary films were played on the big screen: "
Diamonds sparkle with fragments of classic movies: from 1957's "Family of the Four Seas" to 1994's "Farewell My Concubine", and 2002's "The Pianist", the great scenes record the glory and transformation of Shijie movies in the past 50 years.
In the midst of thunderous applause, the large TV screen on the stage slowly rose, and the male voice of the narrator sounded: "This is the Lumière Hall of the Palais du Cinéma, welcome everyone to enjoy the 57th Oscana Film Festival".
Quentin Tarantino, dressed in a black suit and with curly hair, opened the ceremony and walked out with a smile: "Hello everyone, hello everyone. Next to him is Italian actress Laura Morant, wearing a low-cut evening dress in aqua blue, which is extremely dazzling.
The audience of more than 4,350 guests sitting on the upper and lower floors suddenly burst into more enthusiastic applause, and many guests stood up with a smile, and the stylish star couple of Black Blatter Pitt and Jennifer Aniston in the front row became the darlings of the camera.
