Fang Cunliang watched Xiaobai grow up all the way, the first interview was 'Comedy Rising Star', the second was 'Director Bai Xiaofei', and in the third article, he didn't know which aspect to focus on.

In fact, during the whole process of the interview, it can be seen that Bai Xiaofei is much more confident than before.

Sometimes looking at him, it really looks like a high-precision machine.

made three movies a year, and only a few people have done this kind of thing in the golden age of Hong Kong films!

Bai Xiaofei is really different from other directors he knows, and the biggest difference should be that he believes in his team.

Of course, his creative team is also very stable, as a director, and also serves as a screenwriter and producer, he also has the same group of talented collaborators around him, Huang Liang has collaborated with him on three films, is his most trusted assistant, and is now a director;

The cinematographer, script combing, including the producer are all well-known in the industry!

These factors are combined, so that even Fang Cunliang is full of confidence in Bai Xiaofei!

It's so trusting, so credible that it's a little impersonal, but it's certainly a good thing for the audience.

"How do you find a balance between business and art? You may think that my market value is high enough to allow me to fool around, but I can't do that! I know that it is very likely that the public will not like it, and I want to shoot it, I will not accept it! ”

"It's easy for things that are too high and too low to disappear..."

"The most important thing about art is that someone likes it! What no one likes is not called art! At best, it can only be regarded as a niche hobby! ”

Thinking back on what he said, Fang Cunliang suddenly felt that he should look at Bai Xiaofei from another level!

What he thinks is no longer the gain or loss of a movie, but the direction of the entire Chinese film!

"Maybe he can already be called a Chinese filmmaker!"

With this thought, Fang Cunliang began to write a script: "What is a movie? Or what are the movies we look forward to as ordinary viewers? When it comes to Bai Xiaofei, what do you think he will bring you? I guess the first impression was already hilarious! ”

"Bai Xiaofei is a director who is very clear about what he is good at and what he is not good at, for him, the most important audience..."

Not to talk about how Fang Cunliang will write a manuscript, the Cannes Film Festival announced the shortlists!

Someone who is interested has checked it, and the first place in the main competition unit is "The Truman Sho", director: Bai Xiao Fei!

, is it Bai Xiaofei?

Lose your marbles!

Bai Xiaofei's film has been shortlisted for the Cannes main competition unit!

Are you sure it's Bai Xiaofei?

Hurriedly searched Weibo, only the official Weibo of Bai Xiaofei's studio had a lonely message: 'Congratulations to Xiaobai's new work "Truman's World" on being shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival, I don't know if I can win the award, hehe...'

Looking at Bai Xiaofei's Weibo again, the latest update is the photo from almost a week ago, 'I finally sent the movie out before signing up, I'm tired, I want to sleep!' The picture is a huge black circle...

There have always been rumors that "Truman's World" will win an award when it is filmed, but most netizens still scoff at this news!

How so?

That's Bai Xiaofei, a director who makes comedies, you said he wanted to win the Palme d'Or?

Why don't you say win an Oscar?

……

Nowadays, there are countless films produced in the world every year, and the more movies there are, the more film festivals there are, so it is not uncommon for films to win awards.

It's strange to win the grand prize.

What is the Grand Prize?

The first three major European cities in Europe, Cannes, Berlin and Venice.

What they all have in common is that they all have a long history and noble artistic pursuits.

It can be said that it is one of the most valuable film awards in the world. The qualifications and judging systems of the three major European film festivals are very similar, and they are all self-selected film models that can be participated in by registration. There are no restrictions on countries and regions at all.

Therefore, Mr. Bi's "Dream Showbiz" also signed up!

Who is Bai Xiaofei?

For people in the industry, it is a commercial director who deals with profound themes.

"I Am Not the God of Medicine" could have been filmed into China's "Dallas Buyers Club", but he had to make "Dead Poets Society"

For the general audience, Bai Xiaofei's three words are the guarantee of the quality of the movie, and it represents comedy!

Suddenly came the news that Bai Xiaofei was shortlisted for the main competition unit in Cannes?

In particular, when did the selection criteria for Cannes change?

Not this year's judges!

The most aggrieved is Teacher Bi!

"Dream Showbiz", which has been honed for 12 years, was actually rejected by Cannes!

He... What is he Bai Xiaofei?

Does his film have the affirmation of a well-known expert in the industry?

Ah, I really want to post a Weibo complaint about Cannes!

It's not good, I just had a fight with Douban, and now I'm clamoring with Cannes...

It has been discussed on the Internet, Lao Jia was shortlisted for the main competition unit with "Children of Jianghu", Zhang Zhen served as a member of the judges, in addition to the main competition unit, the "A Concern" unit, Bi Gan will bring his second feature film "The Last Night on Earth" to appear, in addition, the director's biweekly "Pluto Moment" witnessed the return of another old Chinese director Zhang Ming; In the short film competition unit and the film cornerstone student competition unit, Wei Shujun's "Yanbian Boy" and Shen Di's "Animal Fierceness" were also shortlisted!

Plus a bunch of Chinese stars who brush their faces on the red carpet!

All of a sudden, domestic media reported that this year's Cannes Film Festival is full of "Chinese flavor"!

Hey, but this can put gold on your face...

……

"Thank you for your attention, the entire preparation period of "Truman's World" has not been half a year, and it was actually shortlisted for the main competition unit of Cannes, and Kate's big demon must be my fan! The Palme d'Or is stable... Hehe, okay, no kidding, I'm pretty happy! ”

At eight o'clock in the evening, Xiaobai posted a Weibo, and then turned off his mobile phone.

I can't help but turn it off, a bunch of people call, text message congratulations, and some of them can't be hit at all, speechless!

However, judging from the situation of this year's shortlists, Asian power is strong, South Korean director Lee Cangdong, Iranian directors Jafar Panahi and Asghar Farhati, Japanese directors Hirokazu Kore-eda and Ryusuke Hamaguchi have all been shortlisted.

The biggest enemy is, of course, Hirokazu Kore-eda!

Damn, Kore-eda is so invincible, and he is an author director who has a very high creative frequency and can maintain a very stable quality among today's directors and even Asian directors.

Modern family dramas are the best, especially children's dramas!

And the filming works have a strong documentary color, to sum up: the drama conflict is not obvious, and there are many details of life!

Typical anti-Hollywood style!

If such a director meets a host committee that advertises 'MeToo', it will be over, and the Palme d'Or will definitely be his!

As we all know, Cannes has always embraced Hollywood with the most radical attitude!

What is the biggest sport in Hollywood today?

MeToo…
