Chapter 11: Capriciousness
"In the main competition unit, the winner of the jury award is "The Piano of Steel"!" The Palais de Cannes, which is several times more spacious than the Kodak Theatre, was packed, and the president of the jury, Wong Kar-wai, who won the Palme d'Or for "Happy Spring", was on stage, even on this occasion he still wore his trademark sunglasses.
Although the applause rang out, Chen Bo hesitated to stand up, and all the audience were curious about who won the award second only to the Palme d'Or. And Huang Bo, Qin Hailu and others in the crew also looked at each other and were at a loss.
After a little contemplation, Chen Bo got up and kissed Angelina's forehead, hugged Wanyu, who was wearing a white dress and a bow hairpin, and walked to the stage with more enthusiastic applause.
"Is that him?"
"He's it?"
"It's unlikely, I should have accepted the award on behalf of someone else."
There are so many voices of discussion, Hollywood is the best business card publicity, and he is still so high-profile in the world, there are few people in the business circle who have not heard of his name, plus Angelina with a big belly next to him, it is not the most dazzling pair.
"Congratulations!" Wong Kar-wai, who looked surprised, personally presented the award-winning zhèng shū with a red ribbon. The runner-up is so embarrassing, only the champion is eligible for the Palme d'Or.
"Thank you." Chen Bo took it and handed it to Xiao Wanyu casually, letting her play with it in her hand.
Then he stood in front of the microphone and said in fluent English, "First of all, please forgive me for not speaking French, and thank the jury for their kindness to me." I am Dongfang Yue, and Dongfang Yue is also me, this is the dá àn of your question! ”
Foreigners naturally don't think there's anything, but the Chinese community is greatly surprised.
Why? The winner of the Best Video Award on the first Music Billboard, the lyricist of many golden songs, many people can't make an appointment with a song. But it's easy to understand that only Galaxy Music has this honor, and it's understandable to think that his ex-girlfriend in particular has received the most.
"Here I would like to solemnly thank all the crew members, it took them 15 days to produce such a work in a temperature of more than 10 degrees below zero in the ice and snow. Thank you to my daughter for inspiring me, thank you Angelina for being a gatekeeper for me, I love you guys! ”
Ooh! Filming a diàn yǐng in 15 days is really TMD sharp, which makes others excited and want to scold their mother.
"This is a work about helplessness and reality, condensing the memory of the background of the times. Personally, I don't want this diàn yǐng to win awards, and I don't even want it to be released in the diàn yǐng theater. Why? Because all the award-winning films of the Chinese are reminiscing about the past, this will make many people have a more stereotypical image of the growing hot land of China, and not see that it is now the 21st century.
"Farewell My Concubine" and "Alive" are both contradictions and conflicts that run through the changes of the old and new eras, last year's Jury Award "Qinghong" is an old thing in the 70s, and this year's "Summer Palace" shortlisted for the competition unit is the end of the 80s.
I don't know if it's because the European judges especially like to see our country in such pain, or if there are other reasons why they especially favor this kind of work, in fact, it is easy to cause Chinese directors to have to go back to the past era and dig out the pain if they want to win the award.
So in the future, the Chinese Diàn Yǐng will fall into this dead loop, and the young director will continue to delve into the past, how can there be a present and a future? ”
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, Chen Bo's words were clearly criticizing Cannes, and it was the first time that you were given an award or been criticized, and the faces of the judges were already green.
And the audience seats are all foreigners, and they are also dumbfounded by this cynicism, and the understanding of China in Europe and the United States is still very stereotypical. Not only is it poor and sour but also pedantic, the expression of Diàn Yǐng art is on the one hand, and more from the ignorant brain.
"This is my second Diàn Yǐng work, the first is "500 Days of Hesha Mo", which is being released in North America, and the setting is in the present, and the story takes place in Los Angeles. I'm glad I got the Sundance Diàn Yǐng Festival award, but I don't know if I would have that qualification if I had been there when I showed up.
If I could, I would like to implore the jury to take back this zhèng shū and not to give any more awards to diàn yǐng of this genre in the future. The diàn yǐng festival is supposed to promote the development of diàn yǐng, rather than stifling art in memory. ”
Before Chen Bo's words fell, with a sneer, Wan Yu in Chen Bo's arms tore the zhèng shū in half, and now it seems that he can't go back!
The air in the entire hall began to become quiet, nearly a thousand pairs of eyes stared at the father and daughter on the stage, and Wanyu's big eyes flashed and she didn't know what was going on against the background of her dark skin, and called out timidly, "Dad." Then he got into his arms, and the zhèng shū, which was torn in half, was also ruthlessly thrown to the floor.
"That's the end of my remarks, thank you!"
Chen Bo saw that the matter had come to this, and immediately walked off the stage with the child in his arms.
Applaud? tmd you even threw it away. Don't applaud? It's too cold again.
Both inside and outside the circle were stunned by his approach, and he was really maverick and unconventional.
Just two works, and both won awards, even if you are a genius who is proud of your talents, you can't be so capricious, this is one of the three major diàn yǐng festivals in Europe.
The organizing committee didn't know what to do, but they didn't know which one gave applause first, and then everyone else also took advantage of the situation, and lasted for about two or three minutes before stopping, and I don't know if it was because of his courage to refuse the award, or because of the rebellious psychology that broke the convention.
As for the torn zhèng shū, it seems that it is not so important anymore, the host pretends not to see it, the judges don't want to care, and the organizing committee is still confused.
"Cool, you're dead. I was upset that Diàn Yǐng won the award in "Durian Piao", but you can't say anything against your heart, you can only sing praises and thanks. You are the only one who dares to say this, and you not only offended the Europeans, but also offended the Chinese directors who won the award. Qin Hailu admired his idea very much, and immediately sent his support.
Angelina gently took the child over, without any verbal comfort, a look full of understanding and support. What if he offended those people? He is neither a full-time director, nor does he eat this bowl of rice, and why should Hollywood give it to others.
Even with these episodes, the awards still have to continue, the Palme d'Or was won by the UK's "The Wind Blows the Rice Waves", Mexico's Alessandro won the best director with "Babel", and Ning Hao also gained a little and won the award in the "Un Certain Regard" unit, which is generally awarded to unknown new directors.
Compared with the Oscars, which will be interspersed with speeches, cabaret shows and other lively scenes, the awards in Cannes are really pure awards, and they all end in less than half an hour.
Chen Bo naturally became a topic in the topic, and he was already surrounded by all the media at the exit of the channel.
"What did you think at the time of tearing up the award-winning zhèng shū on the spot, this kind of disrespectful behavior of the judges?"
"Is the return of the prize an indictment of dissatisfaction with Cannes?"
"You're so rich, why do you still shoot diàn yǐng......"
Such problems are varied, and the noise is like getting into a goose pen, but this kind of scene has long been used to it.
With a child in his arms and a girlfriend with a big belly next to him, Chen Bo of course wanted to make a quick decision, first signaled all the media to be quiet, and then said directly, "I do diàn yǐng for fun, not to win awards." Racial and cultural discrimination does exist, and this diàn yǐng is inspired by my eldest daughter and ends with my younger daughter, which is probably a kind of reincarnation. I have a lot of respect for the judges, but it's not necessarily the right thing to do, I'm just explaining what I think. ”
After that, the bodyguards opened the way and broke out of the media circle, and anyway, they were offended and offended, and the Diàn Yǐng Festival has ended.
Leave it to everyone to judge right and wrong.
Anyone who won the award became a battle to dig up the pain, and it had to be torn bloody before it could be awarded. Is that really good? Why is it that comedies are rarely awarded, and why are modernists not favored by the judges?
Look at the films that have won awards in Europe, most of which have not been officially released, or have been miserable at the box office.
Is the diàn yǐng for the audience, or for the judges? Can these really promote the development of the Chinese language diàn yǐng?
Why is it difficult to be shortlisted after this, because it is all filmed, and it is difficult to squeeze out oil and water.
He also wants to make the Chinese diàn yǐng market good, but he is really fed up with the judges' judging standards, and he is also disgusted with those mean and rigid eyes of the times.
Before Chen Bo left, the whole world already knew about this scene that happened at the Diàn Yǐng Festival in Cannes, openly refused the prize, and also tore up the zhèng shū. In addition, he is actually the mysterious "Dongfang Yue", and the media of good things also found out that this name won the Best Screenplay Award in the same place a few years ago, but his ex-girlfriend was the starring role of last year's Jury Award.
If you want to be topical, look at what else he did in Cannes.
The superyacht "Galaxy" obscured the sky and the sun, causing many movie stars to exclaim, 'It blocked my view!' ’
The "China Charity Night" is star-studded, and the price of a single ticket is $10,000, which also makes celebrities flock to it.
A family of three red carpet show, black, yellow, and white skin are all together, the key is that Angelina, who has a stomach, has not appeared in the public eye for half a year, and the Oscars have not participated, but she actually came to Cannes, and she came in a group, which is quite rare in itself.
Next is Dongfang Yue himself, who not only criticized the judges, but also tore up the zhèng shū after declining the award, and threw it to the floor as if he were a shoe, which made the Cannes Organizing Committee lose face.
Counting them one by one, who can you love if you say the media doesn't love him?
I can't wait to buy an incense burner to offer him, and this incident has mixed reviews on the Internet, some people praise him for his true temperament, and some people praise him for being too arrogant.
However, the most obvious thing is that the North American box office of "500 Days with Sammo" has been unable to hold back and began to take off, catching up with 007 in the second week, and directly counterattacking in the third week...... This is the topic effect.
The T section has a Pandora rhythm, the music section has a global rhythm, and Diàn Yǐng entertainment has its own halo effect.
He alone has contracted most of the media pages, thanks to the Manchester City club's lack of too amazing results, otherwise he can force another wave of face in the sports circle.
