Chapter 332: I'm Coming! I'll see you! In fact, if a movie like "The Hangover" wants to participate in some internationally renowned film awards, it basically can't be shortlisted...... This kind of film, many of the things involved in it are not particularly harmonious, and the whole film does not have outstanding contributions in terms of art, so it is difficult to win awards at film festivals......

However, the Venice Film Festival is a somewhat different film festival, it is very inclusive, and even this film festival will involve a lot of heavy films, which is also one of the characteristics of the Venice Film Festival. Under such inclusiveness, "The Hangover" finally reached the main competition unit after some public relations, of course, winning the award is a luxury...... But once you get into this main competition unit, a lot of things will be much easier for you.

In the past two years, it has become more and more difficult for Chinese films to sell overseas, and the overseas box office has also fallen wildly. You can't win the Oscar, but the Venice International Film Festival, the Cannes International Film Festival, the Berlin International Film Festival, ...... In such an award, not to mention winning an award, even if it is shortlisted, it can basically sell the movie in a lot of places and recover a lot of costs. Therefore, the European International Film Festival has also become a place where everyone pays more attention in recent years, and every year at the Cannes Film Festival or other film festivals, the Chinese expeditionary corps can always gain a lot of attention.

It's just that many times, it often backfires, and the Chinese Army's performance is not as touching as theirs, and some people simply go up to the red carpet to mix their faces.

This year, only two Chinese-language films have qualified to compete for the Golden Lion Award, Hong Kong director Cheng Baorui's "Accident" and Hong Kong director Yang Fan's "Son of Tears".

However, in the horizon unit that shows the new trend of movies, Liu Jie's "Dialysis", Guan Hu's "Bullfighting", and Luo Mo's "Hangover" were all shortlisted. In fact, it can even be regarded as a miracle that "The Hangover" can be shortlisted for such a film festival, but in recent years, with the outbreak of the world's financial crisis, the global economy has gradually declined, and many film festivals have begun to find it more and more difficult to raise funds, and it has become a problem to stick to the original scale. In such a situation, some more commercial, but very topical films are also on the big ship at the Venice International Film Festival......

This is the case with The Hangover, for example.

Strictly speaking, this movie is basically unlikely to be shortlisted for the main competition unit, but "The Hangover" has indeed achieved high box office results in Asia and North America this year, and even approached "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in the box office list of foreign language films in North America, reaching a very considerable level. Globally, it has caused a strong response among people who care about the North American box office, and it also reminds everyone of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which set off a storm of costume martial arts films around the world ten years ago.

This time, though, it's Chinese comedy......

Such a topical film was shortlisted for the Venice International Film Festival this time, and Luo Mo also became the invitation object of the Venice International Film Festival.

On September 23, Luo Mo took off from the capital airport and flew to Italy...... After flying for a long, long, long time, I finally came to this place. Luo Mo is also very interested in Italy, the capital of Italy is Rome, which was once the name of a super country that spanned three continents: Asia, Europe and Africa. It's just that Luo Mo didn't have much time to visit the places of interest here when he came here, he wanted to use the matter of last night as quickly as possible, and then hand over the specific price negotiation of "The Hangover" to others, and then he was going back to China.

The filming of "Inception" is actually not fast, and if the filming and production are not stepped up, there may be problems with the release in April next year.

On September 25, Italian time, the 66th Venice International Film Festival in 2009 entered its ninth day...... On this day, "The Hangover" will be officially broadcast in the Horizon unit.

On the same day, another Chinese-language movie was played, called "Bullfighting". Before the official start of the film festival on this day, Luo Mo met Huang Bo in the hotel.

Huang Bo really has a unique temperament like Luo Mo has seen in his movies, he and Xu Zheng are really a perfect match, as long as the two of them act in movies, they have something that makes people laugh. Luo Mo likes Huang Bo as an actor very much, and he also likes some of his movies.

And for Luo Mo...... In Huang Bo's impression, it can almost be said that this is a legendary figure...... Indeed, his legendary life has been well reflected in the entertainment industry, especially the recent "Hangover" has almost pushed his legendary nature to the highest peak.

Of course, Huang Bo is also willing to be friends with such people.

"Director Luo, I also watched your "Hangover", it's really strange, I don't know how you can come up with such an idea in your head, and it's so funny! Pretty good. Huang Bo's words are not to flatter, that is, everyone is not familiar with each other, just praise each other.

"Where is it......" When Luo Mo was talking to people, he changed his speaking style, which some people called 'Luo Cannon', and became very humble: "It's just good luck...... What's next? ”

Huang Bo stopped his smile, frowned slightly, and said, "What's next...... Hey, no......" He asked Luo Mo slyly: "What, is Director Luo planning to give me any role?" If that's the case, you're welcome, just say it. He said in a joking tone, but in fact, Huang Bo's ears had already been pricked up - now many actors, including him, are very much looking forward to being able to play Luo Mo.

No matter how many people denounce Luo Mo as 'Luo Cannon', 'China's No. 1 Cannon' or something like that...... But no matter what everyone thinks, anyway, people have already beaten their own country with one punch and one kick. In this era, it is absolutely remarkable that the box office of a movie can exceed 100 million, but the name Luo Mo can basically ensure that his box office is definitely more than 100 million yuan.

Who doesn't want to be in such a director's play?

Facing Huang Bo's gaze, Luo Mo just smiled slightly: "Actually, I have an idea, it's a comedy genre...... But I'll have to wait a while, and I'll look for you when the time comes, don't shirk it! ”

"Of course!" Huang Bo said with a smile, he didn't expect Luo Mo to really give him a role.

Luo Mo is not a temporary idea, he has also had this idea, that is, "People Are Embarrassed to Travel: Thailand", this movie originally created a box office miracle in China, but this phenomenal box office miracle has multiple influences of the right time, place and people, and it is not difficult for him to let the movie continue to have such a favorable time, place and people - the name Luo Mo is indeed worth a lot of box office!

The Venice Film Festival officially opened on September 25, and only Luo Mo himself arrived in the crew, and the other two were mainly responsible for communicating with people in Italy, completing some things, and acting as translators. In addition, there are two bodyguards, and in addition, there is Yang Siyi, a personal assistant.

When Luo Mo came to the scene, he found that this year's Venice International Film Festival was a bit deserted, the number of people was not very large, and some fans came, and their eyes were chasing about other people. After all, "The Hangover" has not yet been released in Europe, and it is not too popular, but there are some people who vaguely know that "The Hangover" is a big hit at the North American box office.

Therefore, no one expressed support for Luo Mo, when everyone saw Luo Mo, they just thought in their hearts, who is this Chinese star? Doesn't seem to have seen it?

Luo Mo looked at the people in these places and felt that it was deserted here, and the passion in his heart had faded a lot. When this year's Venice International Film Festival opened, it just coincided with the opening of the Toronto International Film Festival in Canada, although the Toronto International Film Festival is a relatively new award, not very old, but it is very attractive, and it is also called by some people as the "warm-up of the Oscars", so this award has slowly begun to attract more and more filmmakers to participate, compared to the Toronto Film Festival, the Venice Film Festival is also a little deserted.

Moreover, the most important thing is that not only are there not many people here, but everyone doesn't know Luo Mo very well...... Thinking about Luo Mo now, there are so many people chasing after him when he goes to South Korea, let alone in the mainland, of course. The loneliness here is a bit of a psychological gap. However, these popularity are also slowly accumulating, and he believes that after "The Hangover", there will be many people here who will know him, and after his "Inception" is released, there will be many people here who will like him.

After the very opening, this is the beginning of today's competition, and the arrangement for "The Hangover" is noon. After noon, there were quite a few people who came to watch "The Hangover", and everyone was a little curious about how the movie managed to win so much box office in North America.

At first, they are all curious and a little strange in their hearts, but as the plot of the movie develops, their curiosity gradually turns into a reimbursement...... Laughter constantly erupts as the plot of the movie unfolds. Sure enough, the bad taste of human beings is common in many cases, and that sentence is really appropriate to use until now, and when everyone sees some vulgar things in "The Hangover", there is no one who does not find it funny.

Their laughter is similar to that of most other people who find it very funny when they see the movie...... It's just that those guys are funny, the plot is funny, and the fat guys are funny...... And Jackie Chan also had some warmth when he appeared. It is at this point of laughter that these people from all over the world are overjoyed and laughing.

So, after the movie was played, more and more people discussed "The Hangover", and more and more people discussed actor Li Weiping and director and starring Luo Mo.

"Where is the director of The Hangover? I would like to see where the director can make such an interesting film. I seem to have heard that this director is quite young? ”

"The director is the leading actor...... these moviegoers generally have the habit of insisting on reading the end credits and then leaving, and they naturally saw that the director and starring of this movie are Luo Mo: "It's that obscene teacher!" And it's also his screenwriter! That's good! ”

"A very interesting person!"

Luo Mo also quickly felt everyone's evaluation of him, at least, now that Luo Mo saw that there were more and more people who knew him, all of this reminded Luo Mo of what Julius Caesar said in Rome back then-

"I'm coming! I'll see you! I conquer! ”

Luo Mo thought passionately-there will always be a day when he will conquer the entire world! There is always a day when your own movie conquers the entire world, and "The Hangover" is just the beginning! And there's a lot more to come!
