"Shao Yingying can't help but admit the Waterloo, "Twelve Years as a Slave" ensured the quality of the film and lost the box office." -- Hollywood Movie Magazine.

"Shao Yingying shouldn't sigh, "Twelve Years as a Slave" has existential value." -- Vanity Fair

When the total box office of "Twelve Years a Slave" came out, only $46 million made the whole Hollywood in an uproar, this is Shao Yingxing's new low in Hollywood, he has never gotten such a low box office result in the North American market, at the same time, it seems that the European film market that has been opened up by Shao Yingying is not very interested in the newly released Berlin Double Bear actor, and a total of less than 30 million box office in Europe has been contributed, but China alone has contributed 10 million US dollars.

When the unacceptable results happened to the popular Hollywood celebrities, the Hollywood media people did not laugh at Shao Yingying, but were full of pity, but some domestic media people talked and laughed without the language of four or six, "It's messed up, right?" If you don't make a good commercial film, you have to have word of mouth, and if you want word of mouth, you will definitely lose the box office. It's like they've been Hollywood hutongs for years, and they're all full of uncle-like tones, how ugly they are.

At this moment, things that Shao Yingying didn't expect are still happening, many Hollywood stars he didn't know at all actually publicly supported this movie on the Internet media, Tom said on Twitter, 'This is a good movie, I thought for a long time when I watched this movie, about history, should we really say something, ask something'; The only movie that can make me calm down and watch today is "Twelve Years a Slave", and the process of the male protagonist played by Shao from birth to death is enough to make people think. When I watched it for the first time, I thought the biggest failure of this movie was the ending. There is no set ending that will make the audience feel dissatisfied. It's just that now I understand that there can be an infinite number of endings. These endings are all in our minds, because Shao Yingying doesn't know which endings the audience can accept, so he simply opens up the endings completely, which is a very clever move'.

This made Shao Yingying feel fresh, in the past, this kind of thing would happen to artists with very good popularity, but today this kind of thing happened to him. Many artists who don't know themselves have begun to speak to themselves.

Shao Yingying doesn't know how to communicate, his understanding of communication comes entirely from KTV, and there is a saying called 'future energy' in communication. An example of this statement is, 'When you're an employee, don't care who your boss is or how many gangs there are in the company, and focus on your own business.'" Someone else's mouth will form a force that will naturally help you. ’。 Shao Yingying's socialization in Hollywood turned him from a mysterious oriental star into someone else's mouth, "Actually, this guy is not bad", and he finally understood what Hollywood was all about. Hey, you know what, I had dinner with Shao Yingying in a restaurant the other day, and we talked a lot', and if this kind of thing is spread in Hollywood, the image of Shao Yingying will be concretized.

It is rarely rumored that once something happens to someone with a fixed circle of friends, the most people who are willing to speak for you are just a few guys. If a lot of people have heard about you from other people's mouths, then you become the focus. If they're still saying good things, then the focus will be cohesive. Whether it is a star or a fan, they are all ordinary people, it is precisely because the star is the focus that the fans will get closer, in fact, the star will also get close to the focus, just like what is happening now.

He would never have imagined that the social interaction he worked so hard for the Oscars would indirectly play such a big role, and when this role appeared, he suddenly reacted.

Relationships are played like this, not to think about who is with whom, as long as you are approachable and close to everyone, then these people will naturally talk about you, especially if you are a star.

Why are photos of Bieber paying for girls thrown online? It's very simple, Bieber is the focus, and the girl also wants to be the focus, as a woman who can be summoned for money, she also has an ordinary side.

"Hey."

When Shao Yingying saw some clues in human relations, he received a phone call, and the voice of the call was a little hoarse.

"What's wrong with you, how did your voice come to be like this?"

It's a weekly newsletter.

On the phone, Zhou Xun replied simply: "It's a little uncomfortable, I just pushed the promotional event of "Painted Skin 2" to Cannes two days ago, and I plan to stay in China and take a good rest." ”

"yes, I thought I'd see you at Cannes." Shao Yingying casually mentioned: "I may also go to the Cannes Film Festival in a few days, I guess you also know that the box office of "Twelve Years a Slave" is not good, and now I just want to take advantage of the Cannes Film Festival to promote it, so that the DVD sales after the painting can increase a little." ”

That's it, the two of them said things very casually, and in fact, the words they said were not very related, but after these two sentences, there was a sudden silence on the phone, and the silence made Shao Yingying not know what to say, and the other side did not answer what he said.

"You."

"You ......"

After a moment of silence, the two suddenly said the same words at the same time, and at that moment, the grabbing words full of tacit understanding seemed very interesting.

"You speak first."

"You speak first."

Shao Yingying opened the corners of his mouth without making a sound, and he smiled.

"You're not busy right now, are you?" Zhou Xun asked.

Shao Yingying responded: "It's true that I'm not busy, I plan to go to the Cannes Film Festival to fight for an Oscar, if I can be shortlisted, maybe "Twelve Years a Slave" will have a second chance to be released, if I can't be shortlisted, I'm afraid I have to do it all over again." At that time, it will be busy, not only to help the company make money, but also to find a suitable subject to challenge the Oscars again, and it is estimated that even the sleeping time will be shortened. ”

"Oh." Zhou Xun replied briefly: "I'm calling in again, and I'll call you back later." ”

Honk...... Honk......

When the voice of hanging up came, Shao Yingying was puzzled and asked the phone that had been hung up: "What are you doing?" ”

Outcome. The phone call, which was supposed to come soon, never appeared, and Shao Yingying didn't chase the call back, he let things stumble.

Harry Sloan excitedly rushed to the hotel. After entering Shao Yingying's room, Harry Sloane, who usually looks like a gentleman, said excitedly to Shao Yingying: "Cannes sent us a message, Shao, you have been shortlisted for the Best Actor Award!" ”

"Really?" Shao Yingying's face finally showed a little surprise, for him, the Cannes Film Festival is like those antique-obsessed lovers in the capital of China looking for treasures, no matter how hard they waste, they will never be able to touch it.

He has been thinking about Cannes longer than the Oscars. I have been thinking about it since I was out of Huaxia, and until now this is the first time I have been summoned, and it is inevitable that there will be a little surprise on my face.

"I'm running over. How can it be fake? Harry Sloan explained, "Shao, our film will not only be in competition, but will also be shown as the opening film of the main competition. ”

Opening film?

Shao Yingying really hasn't seen the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, and it is impossible to know that the opening film originally scheduled for the 65th Cannes Film Festival is "The Kingdom of the Moon Rising". The film is about a pair of children who fall in love and elope. After that, it alarmed many people to look for the story. It is not complicated to be seen in this movie, but there are many big names in the movie, and Bruce Willis and Edward Norton both appear in this movie.

Although the opening film may not represent anything, the face of the Cannes Film Festival needs to be maintained after all, no matter how strong the artistic atmosphere of the Cannes Film Festival is, and how fiery the artistic atmosphere of France is, making "12 Years a Slave" the opening film represents the recognition of the film by the Cannes Film Festival, even if the film is not very good at the box office in France.

"I just don't know after the opening screening. How many Palme d'Or leaves can we get for our films. ”

The Cannes Film Festival also has a voting session, in which the golden palm leaf represents a perfect score. And the frustrated crying face represents a zero score, which is a scoring method that is related to the final Palme d'Or, but not to the best actor, actress, director.

Shao Yingying is not thinking about whether the Palme d'Or has his own share at all, after all, he has to participate in the film festival after he goes, and it is his turn to award awards after the film festival.

"Harry, how much do you know about the Cannes Film Festival?" Shao Yingying has put all his thoughts on Oscar these days, and now it is completely part of the existing things to worship the Buddha, and he only remembered to hold on to the Buddha's feet, who made him never log in to Cannes.

"I'm very sorry, my understanding of Cannes is limited to the rules, but there should be many people in Huaxia who can help you, Jiang Wen, Gong Li, Chen Kaige have all served as judges of the Cannes Film Festival, Wang Jiawei has also served as the chairman of the jury, in recent years, almost every year there are Chinese who have become judges of the Cannes Film Festival, why don't you ask them?"

Shao Yingying seems to have understood this matter, it was when he just got the computer, at that time, he could always see the news words 'so-and-so became a judge of the Cannes Film Festival' on the computer, but at that time, Shao Yingying knew that one day this would be so important to him, and he didn't expect that many people in his circle had harmed other countries' films in Cannes. Now, when Harry Sloan said this, Shao Yingying looked forward to the Cannes Film Festival even more, Wang Jiawei served as the chairman of the jury in Cannes, that is Shao Yingying's old relative, not to mention Jiang Wen, as long as one of these two is in Cannes this year, he will be a little more sure.

took out the phone, Shao Yingying called Jiang Wen, it is estimated that it is the middle of the night in China, Jiang Wen's voice is a little wrong, like a cold: "Brother." After Shao Yingying heard Jiang Wen's 'hey', he opened his mouth directly and asked: "My film has been shortlisted for the Cannes competition unit, are you still a Cannes judge this year?" If not, do you know who in our circle has become a Cannes judge? ”

Jiang Wen thought for a long time before saying, "I haven't heard of anyone going to France to do this job as a judge this year...... I remember! ”

This panting, Shao Yingying almost thought that he had stopped cooking.

"There is not a single Chinese judge this year!"

After listening to the addition of ginger pattern...... I really have to take a break. (To be continued......)
