Chapter 387 Walking the red carpet and the status of the director's circle

The investment in "Infernal Affairs" really exceeded some of Li Chencan's expectations, and during the filming process, many places increased the final investment in the film, and the publicity cost of the film must not be reduced.

In this way, the situation encountered by the film will be more complicated.

Li Chencan is already ready, in this case, "Infernal Affairs" will claim to invest 200 million in the future, which can be regarded as a moderate exaggeration.

However, the increase in investment in this film has also made it more difficult for the film to recover its cost and even make a profit.

But although "Infernal Affairs" has a large investment, Li Chencan still has enough confidence in this movie.

The most important thing for him at the moment is to do his own thing at the Yenching International Film Festival.

Noon on June 14.

The 1,600-meter-long red carpet has been rolled out, but even with such a long red carpet, both sides are still full of people.

The red carpet of the Yenching International Film Festival is one of the longest red carpets in the world, and the 1,600-meter red carpet has become a nightmare for many female stars, but the nightmare is a nightmare, and the red carpet must be walked.

So, at noon on this day, many male and female stars still walked on the red carpet.

In order to prevent accidents in the weather, the red carpet of the Yenching International Film Festival is covered, and the female stars still walked on the red carpet in high heels, showing their own clothes and sideburns in front of the camera and the crowd.

But such a trip down the red carpet is indeed a hard thing for female stars who often have more than ten centimeters of heels.

Li Chencan appeared on the red carpet at more than three o'clock.

Today's Li Chencan is wearing a black modern dress with the taste of Hanfu, with a handsome appearance and a well-proportioned figure. It looks very handsome.

Li Chencan's right hand is Jiang Xiaoyue, who is also wearing a Hanfu-style dress, Jiang Xiaoyue's right hand is on Li Chencan's arm, and Jiang Xiaoyue, as the heroine of "Those Years", is also just right to walk the red carpet.

Walk the red carpet. Especially walking on the red carpet like the Yenching International Film Festival is really a great thing, and walking on the red carpet, there is likely to be unexpected opportunities waiting for you. Walking on the red carpet here, it is very likely that there will be advertising endorsement opportunities, film and television work shooting opportunities, and maybe there will also be opportunities to find big money owners...... In a word. On the red carpet, there are plenty of opportunities.

Many small artists, if there is a chance to walk on the red carpet. It can be desperate to buy clothes just to be able to show up on stage for a few seconds...... Not necessarily no one is willing to shoot you, and the big stars are usually able to get the focus of the reporters' lenses. But many small artists who are not in the mainstream can only rub the red carpet as much as possible on stage. Take a photo......

Jiang Xiaoyue is just a newcomer in the entertainment industry, she is also quite happy to be able to get such an opportunity to walk the red carpet, of course, if she can stand next to Li Chencan, it will also complement each other, so the two of them walked the red carpet together.

The sound of shots began to sound, the cameras kept clicking, and many working cameras were seizing the opportunity to take pictures of the two people.

Everyone is still very concerned about Li Chencan...... Even in the film industry. What's more, today's Jiang Xiaoyue and Li Chencan also look like a couple on the red carpet. The man is handsome, and the woman is beautiful.

However, the photos of the two were quickly moved to the back...... After them, a big movie crew, called "Extreme Magic", invested 800 million national coins and was the work of Zhu Chenggang, a famous Chinese commercial film director.

"Extreme Magic" has invested so much money, so naturally it wants to show its talents in the next summer file, and it is just right to come up to participate in this Yenching International Film Festival, of course they will not miss it.

Before such a big crew, Li Chencan also took Jiang Xiaoyue forward.

Jiang Xiaoyue is a little regretful, after all, at her age, she is the age when she likes to be in the limelight and becomes the focus of everyone.

Li Chencan smiled and said in her ear: "As long as you work hard, you can be like them one day." ”

"May I?" Jiang Xiaoyue was a little unconfident.

"Yes." Li Chencan said with certainty...... It's just that, in fact, he just talks nonsense with his eyes open, an actor like Jiang Xiaoyue is the kind of Xiao He who succeeds and Xiao He who fails, she became famous because she played Shen Jiayi, but it is difficult for her to get out of the role of Shen Jiayi...... She doesn't have the acting skills and ability to get out of Shen Jiayi......

is like "Wulin Gaiden" in another time and space, which has become popular with several actors, but no matter where you see Sha Yi, your first reaction is to think, isn't this Lao Bai? But Yao Chen and the others gradually walked out of the role limit brought by that TV series.

There are two super-first-class movie superstars in the crew of "Extreme Magic" behind them, which basically attracted all the artillery fire against Li Chencan.

Approaching the end of the red carpet, Li Chencan thoughtfully asked, "Does your foot hurt?" ”

"It doesn't hurt, it's okay." Jiang Xiaoyue smiled.

Li Chencan didn't speak again, and then walked out of the red carpet with her, and sure enough, there were already a bunch of reporters surrounding them.

"Excuse me, how did it feel for you to walk the red carpet today?" Journalists asked.

Li Chencan smiled: "It's not bad, it's just a little hot." ”

Jiang Xiaoyue said: "It feels very good! ”

…… After answering some reporters' questions and letting them take some photos, Li Chencan let Jiang Xiaoyue move freely, and he came to a place under the leadership of Wang Bingning.

There are already many domestic movie bigwigs gathered in this place.

Zhang Han, Chen Xiaodi, Feng Gangning, Wu Anyu, and Xu Ge are all film directors around 50 years old, but their works are quite powerful, both artistic and artistic, and they have basically witnessed the whole process of the rise of Chinese films.

In addition to these big directors, some others are the new generation of directors such as Ning Chen, Lu Feng, Jiang Xiao, and Jia Jiangnan......

There are fifty or sixty great directors gathered here, and these are the backbone of Chinese films.

Li Chencan walked among them and immediately felt a little uncomfortable......

He now only has a film with a box office of more than 400 million, although the evaluation of the film is not bad, but it is not particularly artistic...... Such a self really seems a little out of place among this group.

If these people are people who have made great achievements in the music world, then if Li Chencan comes here, many people will greet him, after all, although Li Chencan is young, his status in the music world should not be underestimated.

But when it comes to his status and ability as a director, Li Chencan doesn't have much to do.

So he just shrunk his head and didn't say much to people.

Of course, there will be a few young directors who come to greet Li Chencan, but they are just nodding friends, and the questions they say are very limited.

Because there are too many people here, Li Chencan can't go directly to talk to those big directors who have become famous, so he can only be outside like many small directors, listening to their high-minded talk with a very careful listening attitude.

The film industry in this time and space is completely different from the Chinese film industry in another time and space, before Li Chencan traveled, the prospects of Chinese films in that time and space were very bad, although they have been improving, and it has also made people have expectations for domestic films, but the degree of corruption is also very large, many directors just look at the money and the box office, and it is difficult to shoot the pure classics of the fifth generation of directors at that time.

Chinese films in that time and space can be regarded as really starting out, and there is a great chance to become famous, and many directors have also reached the top with one or two well-known works. But the film industry in this time and space has developed very well, and it also has its own rules, if you want to use one or two movies in such rules to soar into the sky, there is basically no possibility, if you want to have a high status and interests here, you still have to take it step by step.

Now, several big directors are talking about the breakthrough of the movie, and now, the film is more and more beginning to fall into some modes that are difficult to detach, so the breakthrough movie is becoming more and more of a problem.

Of course, Li Chencan knows that "Infernal Affairs" can be regarded as a breakthrough for various current movies, and a novel angle will bring a wonderful story, but he also knows that he basically has no right to speak here now, so he still doesn't speak to prevent any verbal lawsuits, or he will be ridiculed by people.

However, he believes that at this time next year, when so many directors gather, after "Infernal Affairs", he will definitely no longer be in the situation where he has no chance to speak at all.

He believes that next year's self will definitely be different from his current self, and everyone will begin to pay attention to him because of "Infernal Affairs".

This is Li Chencan's goal......

After such a small gathering of film directors who basically had nothing to do with Li Chencan, Li Chencan recognized himself again - he is still nothing in the director's circle, and a good box office of a movie cannot solve any problems.

He needed more films to solidify his foundation.

Of course, if he can get the nomination award at the final award ceremony of the Yenching International Film Festival, Li Chencan's situation will be different...... Although he was shortlisted for the award at the Yenching International Film Festival is the New Director Award, as long as he gets an award at this film festival, it will have an indescribable huge effect on the improvement of a director's qualifications.

Soon, the two-week screening of this year's Yenching International Film Festival officially began, and Li Chencan went back to Tianfu after the red carpet ceremony to do his own thing, and came back when the Yenching International Film Festival awards ceremony on June 27. (To be continued......)
