The most important moment of the Cannes red carpet happened at the end.

Chu Qing took his girlfriend's hand and walked through the noisy central area to the foot of the stairs of the Lumière Cinema Palace. It's much quieter here, ditching the glitz of the stars and relegating a qiē to a movie, full of religious tradition.

He raised his eyes slightly, and looked down the twenty steps, and in front of the open door stood a tall and thin old man, with kind eyes and a calm posture.

The crew stepped up, and the old man slowly descended, and the two sides converged in the middle.

"Chu, welcome to Cannes!"

Gil Jacob, the president of the festival, embraced each other with open arms.

He was quite grateful to Chu Qing, because if a film festival wants to maintain long-term competitiveness, it must rely on the activity of young people, and it is this young man from the East who has brought a fresh taste to the dull film festival.

Different from the glamour of Hollywood stars, it is a very pure, very individual, and very special feeling.

"Hello, Mr. President! I am also honored to be in Cannes. Chu Qing finished the French greeting he had learned in advance, and gave the space to his friends.

Jacob and Li Yu exchanged pleasantries for a while, took a group photo, and then climbed to the top of the steps together, turned around again, stood still, and accepted the photo......

This is the scenery of Cannes, a treatment that every crew will experience. If there are old guys who are familiar with each other, he will naturally recommend the rookies to Jacob, just like the entrance ceremony of Xinding.

The lighting in the hall was soft and warm, subtly relieving the irritability of some of the competitors, and smiling greetings to each other, at least as they seemed.

A few people followed the instructions and struggled to turn into the seats, and the girls carefully tugged at their long skirts, for fear of being scratched.

"Are you going to the bathroom, you're going to hurry." While it hasn't started yet. Chu Qing asked his girlfriend.

"No, I didn't even drink saliva." Fan Xiaoye shook his head, grabbed the back of the chair in front of him, and looked around curiously.

"Are you hungry?"

"Hungry!" Her face was full of grievances, and in order to put on a dress and maintain her manners, she hadn't eaten anything since noon.

"Hey, did you bring anything to eat?" She suddenly remembered her all-round boyfriend who was like a cat, and asked expectantly.

"I brought some sugar." He really did, reached into his pocket and took out a few pieces of fruit candy and gave them to the girls.

Fan Xiaoye grabbed a piece and stuffed it in his mouth first. After smacking it a few times, he turned his head and said, "I'm blueberry, what about yours?" ”

"I'm a lemon." Zhang Jingchu said in a low voice.

"I'm an orange." Cheng Ying said.

"Uh, I'm from Durian." Li Yu had a bitter face.

"Wow!" Fan Xiaoye hugged the two girls, far away from her, very disgusted.

It is said that sweets can replenish energy and relieve tension, and it seems that the effect is not bad. A few people chatted for a while, but no one mentioned the matter of winning the award. The guests also sat down one after another, buzzing with light noise, waiting for the lights to slowly change and the curtain to light up. There was silence again.

The award ceremony officially began.

Jacob went up first to speak the opening, and then the ten judges appeared together to review and remember. Prospects, full of high-level stalks of European style. Only Cheng Ying could understand, and nodded with a smile from time to time. is dark and cool alone, so that the little friends are so contemptible.

After about half an hour, the nonsense ended.

The first award, called the Palme d'Or for Best Short Film, was for a Japanese film. may be too excited, hula poured up four or five people, a slip of English accent without tongue curling, that is called a bad thing, and the audience also applauded politely.

In fact, celebrities don't care about your process at all, or even most awards, they just stare at what they hope to get. Therefore, when you look at a person who looks like a person, you don't know what to do.

Chu Qing was so idle that his eggs hurt, and he secretly pinched his girlfriend's little hands to play. The tender shallot stalks can obviously rub to a well-proportioned bone feeling, not as fleshy as before.

She did lose a bit of weight.

The girl is not as good as him, the first time she participated in a party of this level, how could she have the heart to do anything else. stared at the stage in a daze, until there was an inexplicable wetness on his fingers, and then he came back to his senses and turned his head to look.

Well, the guy is clutching his little finger and biting it in his mouth.

"You're perverted!" She quickly retracted and roared under her breath.

Chu Qing shrugged, covered his mouth and yawned, looking around boredly.

This will be awarded, called the Film Fund Youth Award, which is considered a support program, and a total of four films have won. There are more than a dozen awards in Cannes, and there is no need to wait too long, and after these trivial foreplays, the guests have also cheered up.

Immediately afterwards, it came to the third item, and a handsome French guy appeared on the stage.

"Hey, that's it!"

Cheng Ying half-pulled her body and straddled Fan Xiaoye and patted Chu Qing violently.

"Say what?" The girl wondered.

"This is the Caméra d'Or award, and we hope to win it." He explained.

The so-called Golden Camera is awarded to the best directorial debut at the annual film festival, and it is not limited to the competition section. Chu Qing and Li Yu nailed their targets to it early, be realistic, like a golden palm and a silver palm, they didn't bother to think about it at all.

"Then I've asked you several times, why didn't you sue me?" But the girl quit and began to dig through the old accounts.

"Uh......"

He glanced at Zhang Jingchu again, although the girl was speechless, her disdainful eyes made the meaning clear, and then he said, "Aren't we afraid that you two will be worried and stressed?" ”

As he spoke, he pointed at Li Yu and whispered, "You see that she is like that." ”

“……”

Everyone was speechless, okay, the crazy woman was already so nervous that she couldn't do it, Fan Xiaoye could feel her body stiffening when she was separated from two seats.

was talking nonsense, and after listening to the buddies on the stage, he slowly opened the envelope and said: "The winner of the Golden Camera Award at this year's film festival is-

《Fishandelephant》！ ”

“YES！”

“YES！”

“YES！”

Although the English title is very weird, it does not delay Cheng Ying's nervous reaction speed.

The young girl in her early twenties shook her fist fiercely and exclaimed three times in succession. She is not a member of the crew, but she has contributed a lot on this trip, and she has long shared honor and disgrace, and she was excited for a while when she heard about the harvest.

followed by the two heroines, even if they are not as exaggerated as her. I can't help but hug tightly.

As an actor, many people are waiting for this moment, but they are often hopeless all their lives. Of course, they are lucky to be able to shine on such a big stage at a young age.

Only Chu Qing still remembered Li Yu, tugged at her arm, and called, "Wake up, it's time to go up!" ”

"Huh? Oh! ”

Li Yu blinked, there was a trace of trance, and it is estimated that he has not successfully restarted. Stiffly stood up and passed by his little friend. looked at the man sitting down again, and said in a daze, "You don't go up?" ”

Chu Qing shook his head with a smile, gave her a place, stretched out his hand, and made a gesture of please.

Li Yu bit his lip, he really wanted to smoke.

This man has always been on the front line of the battle with him, no matter how difficult it is, he has never given up. As a result, now that the honor is in hand, it's a special pick. Suddenly there was a kind of heart jamming daring.

She walked as slowly as she could, slowly onto the stage, receiving the trophy and certificate, feeling the weight of the heavy metal in her palm. Fang felt that at this moment, Mo Ruo was clear.

“Thankyou！”

There are countless scenery in the audience, she only stared at the small place, and said, "I'm honored." My first film came to Cannes and I won this award. ”

"Thank you Wang Tong, you are so good. I'm sorry not to come. ”

"Thank you Zhang Jingchu and Bingbing, you are also very good, giving me a lot of inspiration and confidence."

"And Chu Qing, although you don't come up, I also want to tell you that you are my most suitable work partner, and there would be no movie without you, thank you!"

“……”

Chu Qing grinned, a little blindfolded, is this crazy woman sick, and she suddenly instigated Mao's anger?

Tut! He shook his body, goosebumps on one arm.

"Whoa!"

The audience in the audience slapped their hands as a matter of course.

With the quality of "This Summer", even if it can't compare to the old bird, among all the debut novels, the sweep is absolutely fine.

To be honest, the Caméra d'Or Award is also considered a scrap, and it is not allowed to be on a large stage, purely to encourage newcomers. But Chu Qing and the others positioned themselves very low at the beginning, and they couldn't get it normally, and they earned it when they got it, so they didn't have anything to be picky.

……

In this year's film festival, "The Piano Teacher" is undoubtedly the big winner, winning three silver palms for the male lead, the female lead and the jury prize. And the Palme d'Or, the highest honor, was captured by "Son's Room".

As for the two previously popular Chinese films "The Name of Rose" and "What Time Is It Over There", they only won the consolation technology award. Hou Xiaoxian was so depressed that he didn't attend the press conference.

The one who is more wronged is Shu Qi.

She was praised by some unscrupulous media early on, and her words were conclusive, and as soon as the list was announced, she was slapped in the face. The reporters don't care, they are not used to discipline, they can bend and stretch, and they start to taunt.

It seems that people say that they can get the queen, but they are really shameless.

The three Chinese-language films have all won successes, which can be regarded as small victories.

After the meeting, Guan Jinpeng paid out of his own pocket and spent more than 20,000 francs to charter a banquet at the Pierrotier restaurant to celebrate his success, and opened N bottles of Taittinger champagne to eat and drink.

Shu Qi gave face and went with her crew.

Chu Qing was just strange that this product hadn't returned to Hong Kong yet, and politely refused Ah Guan's kindness. Tonight, he should be with his friends.

Of course, poor Hangsi couldn't afford to eat a luxury restaurant, so he found a fast food restaurant on the side of the road, ordered fried chicken burgers, and huge pizzas, but unfortunately, there was no alcohol.

Five people crowded into a small table, full of food, full of love, and the trophy was placed next to it, shining and dazzling.

Cheng Ying and Fan Xiaoye are the main chatter, chattering endlessly, Li Yu probably hasn't eased up yet, he has been stupidly happy, even Zhang Jingchu's temperament will interject a few words.

Chu Qing is only responsible for cutting pizza and wiping the corners of his girlfriend's mouth from time to time.

As the number of customers decreases until late in the evening, the atmosphere at the table stabilizes.

The girls were talking, I don't know who, I don't know from which second, suddenly they all shut up and became inexplicably quiet.

The experience in Cannes was truly wonderful. The feeling of everyone completing one thing together, overcoming difficulties together, and finally arriving on the other side is very, very comfortable and fulfilling.

However, they all looked at Chu Qing......

After getting together, there is always separation. (To be continued......)
