Chapter 267. Best actor in Cannes
Originally, the reporters' questions may be varied, after all, Chen Xuanting has too many identities, but because Chen Xuanting rushed from South Korea, they agreed to the caliber at once, and asked Chen Xuanting the same question almost at the same time: "Dear Chen, what did you do in South Korea?" Is it expanding the territory of its own entertainment kingdom? ”
It's no wonder that reporters are curious, almost everywhere Chen Xuanting has set foot, almost all of them have planted the banner of Thunder Group, whether it is Yueben, the United States, or South Korea, it seems that they can see the shadow of Thunder movies and Thunder Entertainment. Since Chen Xuanting came from South Korea in a hurry to appear at this grand ceremony, it fully showed that he had a fruitful harvest there, and they immediately realized that this could be big news.
For the reporters who came around, Chen Xuanting was already not surprised, after all, he had seen a lot of similar scenes, but Bao'er, who followed him, was a little nervous.
Facing reporters, Chen Xuanting talked eloquently, "South Korea is a very beautiful place, this time I have a great harvest in South Korea, and the biggest gain is this Miss Kwon Bao'er!" ”
"Quan Bao'er?" In the face of Chen Xuanting's introduction, almost all the media asked Chen Xuanting the same question at the same time: "What is the relationship between this beautiful Miss Quanbaoer and you?" ”
It's no wonder that the reporters are curious, Bao'er is something they have never seen before, and they are interested in everything about Chen Xuanting, since Bao'er and Chen Xuanting appeared together at this grand ceremony, which fully shows that she and Chen Xuanting have a very close relationship, they immediately realized that this may be another big news.
Seeing that many media turned the microphone and spotlight on him, the professionally trained Kwon Baoer still felt a little at a loss.
Although Bao'er is also a celebrity in South Korea, and it is not that she has not been interviewed, it is the first time she has seen such a big scene.
Gently squeezed Bao'er's hand, signaling her not to be nervous, Chen Xuanting politely replied to the reporters: "Everyone knows that I went to South Korea, but they don't know what I am going to do, in fact, I went to South Korea mainly to sign this Miss Bao'er!" There have been many popular singers in South Korea recently, and this beautiful lady standing next to me is the most popular one in the whole of Korea! Whether it's singing, dancing, lyrics, or composing, she is a first-class talent! If you talk about her popularity, I can tell you that in the future, she will be a diva singer in the whole of Asia. ”
Before Chen Xuanting's words fell, the scene was already amazed. There are not many people who can be respected by Chen Xuanting like this, let alone a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.
The surprise was only for a moment, and the reporters naturally immediately thought that Chen Xuanting had no need to lie, because relying on the incomparably strong strength of Thunder Pictures now, let alone cultivating a little Asian diva, even if it is cultivating a world-class diva, some people believe it. More aware that this is a good hype subject. Genius beautiful girl, this topic alone is enough to attract everyone's attention.
The gossip began to ask questions, and Chen Xuanting became a bystander instead, because the target of the questioning became Bao'er.
By this time, Boa had completely composed, and quickly answered the reporters' questions, and from her watertight answers, the reporters were finally convinced that this girl was indeed not as simple as she seemed.
After a round of bombardment questions, Chen Xuanting did not give the reporters another chance, and soon broke away from the encirclement of reporters with Bao'er. It's a pity that Chen Xuanting forgot Leslie Cheung next to him, which made Leslie Cheung immediately the target of reporters who lost the opportunity to interview him and Bao'er. Chen Xuanting's mistake made Leslie Cheung, who finally got out, very dissatisfied: "It's good for you to run away on your own, leaving me alone to deal with those vicious tiger and jackal-like reporters, but the questions they asked have nothing to do with me at all, I just want to know the inside story of your relationship with Bao'er." ”
Seeing Leslie Cheung's very dissatisfied appearance, Chen Xuanting couldn't help but want to laugh, this is really a bit too funny, the person who was shortlisted for the Best Actor award was actually stopped and asked other people's gossip.
Although he was dissatisfied on the surface, in fact, Leslie Cheung was very proud at this time, although he had not yet determined whether he could win the award, but just being shortlisted for so many awards already made him feel infinitely beautiful. Thinking of the loss at the Academy Awards, he even felt even more proud.
Leslie Cheung only had time to complain to Chen Xuanting, and was immediately surrounded by the warm greetings of many people. It can be seen that Leslie Cheung has been very familiar with filmmakers from all over the world before, no matter whether he can win the award or not, just by virtue of these connections, Leslie Cheung's influence is not only in Hong Kong and even around the world.
However, when it comes to having so many people come to greet Leslie Cheung, I am afraid it is not only because I know him or appreciate him very much, but also because of Chen Xuanting.
Chen Xuanting is now famous, and the off-the-court news has certainly made him famous, and the huge sensation caused by the world's entertainment industry and constantly expanding the empire has made these well-known filmmakers very interested in him. Therefore, after Leslie Cheung just complained, he had to take on the task of introducing new friends to Chen Xuanting.
No matter what purpose they had for approaching Chen Xuanting, these people were completely convinced by Chen Xuanting in the end.
Excellent businessmen, excellent filmmakers, these are not to mention, just Chen Xuanting's casual standard Chinese and elegant demeanor have made everyone feel incredible. For this, they can only explain it like this: this is a supertycoon from the mysterious East!
Not a genius, how to be a tycoon?!
And Bao'er also caused a great sensation, she was cultivated by Chen Xuanting at such a young age, and her future achievements are limitless. Chen Xuanting alone let her make such an appearance in Cannes, which is enough to make Bao'er struggle for ten years!
And this is also the purpose of Chen Xuanting bringing her here.
However, Chen Xuanting didn't care much about the sensation caused at the scene, and even Bao'er didn't feel anything to be proud of, in her opinion, what made her happiest was that Chen Xuanting was by her side.
After a lot of noise, the most exciting awards began.
At the beginning of the awards, except for Chen Xuanting, who was not too surprised-nonsense, he knew the result very well.
The rest of the crew of "Farewell My Concubine", including Leslie Cheung and Chen Kaige, were a little nervous.
Leslie Cheung's nervousness is understandable, although he has been shortlisted for many awards, he is still not sure whether he can win the award, and the feeling of suffering from gains and losses makes him really uncomfortable. And Chen Kaige was nervous because he was afraid of living up to Chen Xuanting's expectations of himself, after all, he took other people's money, but he didn't get any fart, which was a little unreasonable.
Chen Kaige's nervousness Chen Xuanting didn't feel anything, but when he saw Leslie Cheung's restless appearance, he couldn't help but speak. Smiling and patting his brother on the shoulder, Chen Xuanting said: "Whether you win the award or not, in my heart, you will always be the best actor." ”
Chen Xuanting's comfort was obvious, but it was very effective for Leslie Cheung, and he immediately said happily: "With Ah Ting's words, I am satisfied." Saying that, Leslie Cheung nodded, Chen Xuanting felt the friendship shown by Leslie Cheung's words clearly, he was also very moved, and he didn't say anything anymore, just patted him on the shoulder again.
But despite this, when it was time to actually present the Best Actor Award, Leslie Cheung couldn't help but hold his breath and stared at the award presenters without blinking.
It's not just Leslie Cheung, at this time, Chen Xuanting is also a little nervous, he really wants Leslie Cheung to get this award, but unfortunately it's not something he can master. What's more, he knows the history of his previous life, and Leslie Cheung did not win the award at this Cannes.
In all fairness, in terms of Leslie Cheung's wonderful performance in "Farewell My Concubine", it is well deserved to be named the best actor in Cannes, but he still lost to British actor David by one vote? Hughis - won the award for "Naked ~ Naked". There are two main reasons for this: one is that "Farewell My Concubine" has won the highest honor at the Cannes International Film Festival that year, the "Palme d'Or", and the jury hopes to award other important awards, Cannes Best Actor, to other outstanding films, after all, every film can enter Cannes is a sign of the artistic content of the film, and the jury hopes that more films can be remembered by the audience rather than buried; The second is a very oolong and well-known reason, that is, one of the members of the jury named Claudia? Cardinal's Italian judge, the artistically named judge, deliberately voted for Best Actress for Leslie Cheung, who felt that Leslie Cheung's performance in the film was better than the other actresses in the Drama Round, so she stubbornly cast the wrong vote. Although Leslie Cheung missed out on the Cannes actor by one vote, his wonderful performance in "Farewell My Concubine" was still highly recognized by the judges and the public. Gary Auman, who served as a judge at the Cannes International Film Festival that year, grabbed Leslie Cheung's hand as soon as he saw him, and Gary has always praised him for acting so wonderfully, "You didn't lose" Gary said sincerely, "Everyone affirms your performance, but the conference also recommends that the jury not give all the awards to the same film." "Louie? When Mahler met Leslie Cheung, he kept using the phrase "wonderful! came to praise him, and the actors who were nominated for Best Actor at the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards first reacted to ask Leslie Cheung if he was nominated, saying that if there was him, he would not have any hope. But in the end, due to various reasons, "Farewell My Concubine" did not participate in the Chinese film festivals, including the Golden Horse Awards, and the actor was unable to judge, and Leslie Cheung never complained about this situation.
Chen Xuanting, who knew these facts, sighed, looked at the scene in front of him that was about to be awarded, and said in his heart, let's think about how to comfort him later.
