Chapter 345: Diary

One second to remember, providing you with high speed. Lineage is a very subtle concept, the kind of subtlety that everyone knows but you can never admit.

In fact, the three major exhibitions in Europe have their own descendants, just like Kim Ki-duk in Venice, Wang Jiawei in Cannes, and Zhang Yi in Berlin...... This is different from the "back door" or "unspoken rules" we imagined, and the so-called lineage is derived from the tradition of the "circle" in the industry society.

This is not something that can be obtained by monetary transactions, at least it needs to meet the high expectations of the film festival in terms of artistic style, ideological expression, creative perspective, identity background and other aspects.

The emphasis and cultivation of lineage is the envy of outsiders, and at least once a year, they will get the attention of the world's flashing lights.

So how can you be selected by the film festival? To put it quite perfunctorily, it is called karma, or noble people to help.

Pierre Risian, the old man who once brought Hou Xiaoxian, Wang Jiawei, and Chen Kaige into Cannes, is Chu Qing's current nobleman.

According to his development experience, the peak of his career was in Berlin, and he should have become a descendant of Berlin, but Koslick had just taken power, and perhaps he was inexperienced, but he was preempted by Cannes.

Generally speaking, most of the people who get this qualification certificate are directors, and few actors are introduced into the circle, such as Liang Chaowei, whose relationship with Cannes is very ordinary.

And Chu Qing's upper position lies in the fact that he is good friends with Reisan and MK2, and has the identity of a rookie Bole.

Now, he has accepted the appointment of a film representative, and from the perspective of the entire industry chain: the investment of creators among the grassroots actors, the oligarchs of the distribution industry in the production market.

He at least occupies the upper position in the middle and can open a hall.

As for the specific work of this product, to put it simply: he watched 30 films this year, and if he thought five of them were good, he had the right to send them directly to the door of the finals from the auditions, that is, to Thierry Fremo, the artistic director of Cannes.

Of course, the decision to be finalists is still in the hands of Fremo and Chairman Jacob.

Even so, it was enough for Chu Qing to turn into a pot of fragrant Tang monk meat.

……

May 25th. The Cannes International Film Festival is closed.

Lou Ye and Wang Xiaoshuai left last night because they did not receive an invitation to the award ceremony. Both of them were very depressed, especially Lou Ye, who had been here for several days just to wait for things to turn around, but he was slapped in the face.

Chu Qing didn't leave, he received three red letters, which means that "Incense" and "Uniform" must have an award.

It is a well-known practice that winners will be retained, but there is a more important hint that is the invitation. Back then, "The Devil is Coming, Amazing Cannes." Near the closing, someone asked Jiang Wen, how many tickets did you get?

Jiang Wen replied stupidly and didn't pull twelve tickets, and the guy went crazy in an instant, saying that you must be a jackpot!

There will only be three in Chu Qing's hand, which can be predicted, and it is mostly a consolation prize. And it is difficult for him to do it, because judging from the reaction, "Incense is more likely to win the award, so Ning Hao must go." With the addition of Cheng Ying, the tickets will run out.

I wanted to ask the organizing committee for another one, but unfortunately I was told that there was no seat!

He's!

Fortunately, Diao Yinan understood. took the initiative to stay in the hotel to rest, Chu Qing felt very sorry for others, and felt guilty.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the award ceremony began.

The quality of this year's films is generally not high. The process of guiding zhì is quite boring, and the media record of routine affairs is not much to expect.

Ultimately. The Palme d'Or was won by The Elephant, a film about school violence, and Guss Vincent also won the Best Director award. The actress was given to a Canadian actress, and the actor was a double yolk egg, both from the Turkish film "Uzark."

Just like the main competition, the One Kind of Attention section has its own awards. Among them, the best film was brushed off by Italy's "U", and the Grand Jury Prize was awarded to an Iranian film.

And in the middle of the party, a buddy on the stage finally read a name:

"Special Attention Award, "Incense!"

The new Ding Ninghao was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and walked on stage tremblingly, dragging the English testimonial that he had memorized in advance.

Chu Qing and Cheng Ying slapped their hands very attentively, no wonder they were really not interested in this kind of award that they came up with at the first hearing.

After the award ceremony, it was the official reception.

It's not good for Diao Yinan to wait alone for a long time, so he went around and went home. Even so, in a short period of time, Chu Qing also received invitations to several hometown film festivals.

He thought about it for a while and decided to attack each city according to the style of the film, "Uniforms go to the Vancouver International Film Festival in October, and incense goes to the Tokyo Filmex Film Festival in November."

There should be something to be gained.

"May 14th

Today I received a notice from the crew asking me to take a few photos and leave some information.

This is the director's debut, and I have vaguely heard of this script, which is quite famous in the circle, and it seems that it was written in 2000. Many directors have seen it and want to shoot it, but the difficulty is too high, the budget is too big, and they have been going around for several years, and they have also experienced things that happened after filming started but died halfway.

I don't like this kind of audition for the crew the most, because I don't like to be picked around.

In the past, Sister Xiaowan often had ambitions for me to be an actor, imagine what it would be like to stand on the podium. But I feel like those are too far away from me and completely incorrigible.

But this time, Sister Xiaowan talked to me for a long time, and she really hoped that I could win this play. So I still have to adjust my mentality, there are interviews for any profession, there is nothing embarrassing, go for it!

Actually, I wanted to call him and ask him for his opinion, but at this time, it should be midnight in France...... Okay, I know I'm making excuses. ”

……

"May 16th

After many twists and turns, I finally borrowed the script from a friend.

I was so anxious and excited, like I had been enchanted and couldn't sleep, and there was no doubt that this was a role that all actors could look forward to. I've never felt like that soul got into my body and started to grow and grow without saying a word.

People are as light as chrysanthemums, cold on the outside, and brilliant on the inside.

I really want to act, but when I think of the audition two days ago, my heart is in a mess. The state is simply not right.

Didn't he sue you a long time ago!

You think you're doing an advertisement? Don't always show your signature smile!

I'm so annoyed that I don't know if there's a chance to try again. ”

……

"May 24th

Happiness is sad, or it is extremely Tailai.

When I get up in the morning, the sun is shining and the wind is light. The crew called me to try on makeup, put on two braids, and put on a white shirt, a blue skirt and white shoes.

Haha, it's like it's time to go to the chorus!

Every year on Children's Day, early in the morning. The streets and alleys of my hometown are filled with the noise of children, and all you can see are new white shirts and blue pants. And this time of year must be the season of great flooding, the roads are full of rushing rivers, at the exit of the sewers are churning whirlpools, the boys are playing wildly, and the girls are shouting with white shoes in their hands......

I could seem to feel the itchy coolness of the stream running between my toes.

It felt so great that I stood in front of the camera with it and suddenly found that the character had found the right soil in my heart. In the dim anticipation of the past ten days, it has quietly flourished, but I don't know it. ”

……

"May 28th

Sister Xiaowan, I seem to have become more active, and I know how to fight for something. Yesterday, I met Sister Zhou Xun in the company again. She doesn't seem to be the same anymore, with murderous air in her eyes.

Perhaps, because I love the character so much.

It is said that there are about 1,000 actors who audition. They all took photos, took DVDs, and tried on outfits step by step, and less than ten people entered the final list.

I can't imagine. I'm actually going through a crazy 1000-1 fight, and no one knows who will leave and who will stay.

I've been auditioning for the crew for the past few days, and I've never tried out with so many actors, one moment with my brother, one with the fruit, and the paratroopers, and one time with my parents' family.

The director and cinematographer were filmed on DVD in the corner of the room, and the walls were plastered with lists of candidates. There are eight photos underneath that character, each with braids and a clean, youthful face.

I couldn't help but quietly look at each face and guess who would be the lucky one.

I felt very uneasy, because I had always considered myself a person who was indifferent to what happened to everything. But this time, I really felt the pressure. In any case, the first thing I have to do is to gather my good mind and try the trick well.

The director has already arranged a course for us, and I will live with those competitors during this time.

I get up at 7 every day, go to the accordion at 9 o'clock to learn the accordion until 12 and a half, go to the crew at 1 o'clock to learn the dialect for a while, play table tennis in the afternoon, return to the crew for dinner at 6, and then learn the dialect until 8 and a half or 9 in the evening, and then go home.

The director is a man who doesn't talk much, and he can't see the attitude on his face, thinking that you are good or bad. Just let the actors play on their own, and say some words of encouragement from time to time, which is very kind, but it is difficult for people to understand.

But I feel pretty good, the coach said you should play athletes, you have murderous eyes and good body.

Haha, it's murderous again, but I'm really good at playing, I can smash, smash, smash in three sets in a row.

Actually, the hard work was the accordion, because I had never touched it before, and when I came home every night and practiced two more times, my shoulder and tail vertebrae were sore and painful. ”

……

"June 1st

I feel like I'm in the middle of getting into this role.

I'm a very peaceful person myself, but she doesn't, she's much more powerful than I am.

She may present you with a tragic outcome, but she feels happy and successful because she can live her life according to her own ideas.

This is the most important thing for a living being, and it is also what I yearn for the most.

So now I can quite understand her, I am also a person who loves fantasy, and if I can't get what kind of life I want, then I will be more miserable. ”

At night, in an apartment in the capital, Zhang Jingchu wrote the last word and slowly closed the diary. To be continued
