At the end of the 30s of the 20th century, the French director Joseph . Erken felt the rising arrogance of fascism in Germany and Italy at that time, and filmed a documentary film called "The Rise of the Devil", which completely exposed the ugliness of the fascist war and the madness of the rulers, and was openly released in major theaters, which caused great repercussions in the society at that time......

Eventually, Joseph. Erken was tied to the gallows by fanatics and died a heroic death in front of thousands of civilians.

In order to commemorate the sacrifice of that pioneer, and in addition to the growing anti-war sentiment in the country, literary and artistic personnel made related films to satirize the war, so the official acceptance of the opinions of those filmmakers and the establishment of an international film festival in Cannes.

In the decades that followed, the festival was committed to peace, anti-war, and truth-telling, and with strong official support, the Festival de Cannes tended to become the top of the three major international film festivals.

After the turn of the millennium, with the fierce international competition, after a certain country began to become a beacon of the world, many filmmakers deliberately avoided certain factors when commenting on films, and this wind began to vaguely blow to Cannes, and the wind direction of many Cannes judges began to change.

It's okay to shoot any shortcomings of other countries, but it's not okay to shoot something sharp about a certain country.

Some filmmakers are dissatisfied, others are angry, and feel that art knows no borders......

However......

The characterization of "Struggle" is very awkward.

On the one hand, it is indeed a more realistic documentary film that pays tribute to life, but on the other hand, it is sensitive.

Its sensitivity is not only to this war, but also to the chaos and discrimination under the bright lighthouse system of the United States.

But......

This year's Cannes seems to be completely different from previous years' Cannes.

"A lot of people are against it, and everyone feels that this is a sensitive time......"

However, this year's Cannes International Film Festival president Steve Brown. Mr. Ferres, however, was so enthusiastic about the film that he was not only nominated for "The Struggle", but also opened up a unique award for the film, which is called the Special Palme d'Or......"

"Not only our "Struggle" was shortlisted, but also another anti-war film "Celsius 911", which I watched shockingly, and the scale was very large......"

"This year's Cannes International Film Festival should be a big event!"

“……”

On the other side of the movie, Christian is as excited and fanatical as ever.

Zhou Yang had no doubt that even if he was asked to blow up the Statue of Liberty, this guy would rush over with a bomb tied to it without hesitation.

After hanging up the phone.

Zhou Yang directly removed the battery of the "Baoli" copycat machine and stuffed it into his trouser pocket.

The speaker of Baoli's mobile phone is too loud, and there have been more and more problems recently, especially Christian's throat-pulling voice, Zhou Yang even suspects that the directors in the conference room can hear it clearly.

When Zhou Yang returned to the conference room, Zhou Yang saw that everyone was looking at him with complicated eyes.

"Ahem, ahem, President Zhou, congratulations!"

Huang Jiacheng's muscles twitched slightly, coughed lightly again, and then took the lead in applauding.

Zhou Yang glanced at Huang Jiacheng embarrassedly: "This copycat machine, there is always a problem, and the speaker is a little louder......"

"Well, yes, yes, next time I'll buy a phone with a bigger speaker."

“……”

After experiencing Zhou Yang's episode, the taste of this meeting suddenly changed a little.

Seem......

The enthusiasm that had been felt at the beginning of the meeting was missing.

Some Hong Kong Island directors smiled like flowers on their faces, and their emotions were extremely sad and angry behind their backs.

Special!

You're shortlisted, why is it necessary for you to turn on the speakers that loud?

You're going to be shortlisted for all your special films in the world, and you will win special awards?

Django went on to chat about his views on the renaissance of Hong Kong Island cinema and his film Nightcrawler.

Although he still looked passionate and full of anticipation, he was a little absent-minded at first, and even avoided contact with Zhou Yang all the time.

An inexplicable sense of irritability rose in his heart.

Two hours later.

The meeting finally ended with An Xiao's closing remarks.

In fact, there was nothing to be said at the meeting, except for announcing the official focus of the film "Night Walker", which will be regarded as the second cooperative film after "The Grandmaster", it is to bring together some well-known directors from the mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan to talk about cooperation and express their opinions.

When the meeting ended, An Xiao passed by Zhou Yang and said softly to Zhou Yang: "Come to my office." ”

The voice was very soft, if it weren't for Zhou Yang's keen hearing, Zhou Yang would even think that he had heard it wrong.

………………………

The night was dark.

The moonlight shone through the clouds on the land, bright and quiet.

in the office

An Xiao stood in front of the window and looked into the distance, a gust of wind blowing her long soft hair, and her slender back was bumpy.

"Zhou Yang, there have been some untrue rumors on the Internet recently, don't worry about it."

"Huh? What rumors? Zhou Yang was stunned.

"Nothing."

An Xiao turned around.

When she saw Zhou Yang's blank expression, she smiled and didn't continue to talk about it, but chatted with Zhou Yang about the movie.

March and April in the Chinese film circle are the grand occasion of the Chinese film circle.

The Chinese film industry, which has been sluggish for a long time, and even said that it is fragile, has been crushed by Hollywood movies, with small hits such as "Mechanical Man" and "Jinyiwei" popping up, and movies like "The Grandmaster" and "Full City of Golden Armor", "Struggle", which besiege "Interstellar......

If this is a war, then it is definitely one of the coolest battles fought in the history of Chinese films since the decline of Hong Kong Island films.

Of course, there are reasons for the quality and appeal of the film itself, and there are also the adjustments and efforts of relevant departments.

Although the mechanism of domestic film protection month has been cancelled, the relevant departments have postponed some overseas blockbusters and done a lot of work to protect domestic films behind the scenes.

Many blockbusters similar to "Interstellar" have been postponed, or on the same schedule, ready for internal friction.

However......

The pressure on Chinese films is still very high this year.

Last year, ten overseas blockbusters were imported, and this year 20 were directly imported, which directly doubled.

Zhou Yang listened quietly to An Xiao's words, thinking about the plans of the relevant departments in the second half of the year and the grim form of the future......

Zhou Yang nodded from time to time, but he couldn't interject, he just felt that An Xiao was a little abnormal today, although he was as cold as ever, but he seemed to have a lot of things to say, and as soon as these words came to his mouth, they turned into work again.

Vaguely, Zhou Yang seemed to feel a trace of pressure on An Xiao's body.

Or is there a little bit of anxiety?

Zhou Yang felt that this was an illusion.

Time passed unconsciously, Zhou Yang looked at the clock on the wall, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

There was a sudden silence in the office.

An Xiao inexplicably didn't know what to say, and Zhou Yang himself was a listener who didn't have any other ideas at all, and somehow, there was a feeling of listening to the teacher lecture on politics.

After this awkward silence lasted for a moment, Yashino also glanced at the clock on the wall.

"I've been talking for so long before I know it......"

"yes, yes."

"Didn't delay you, did you?"

"Nope."

"Oh, I will continue to fight for "I Am Not the God of Medicine", and I will fight for it in July......"

"Oh, thank you, Mr. An." Zhou Yang nodded.

"Do you have anything to say to me?"

"Mr. An, I will work hard." Zhou Yang nodded seriously: "I know that there is a great responsibility."

"Anything else? Well, any questions to ask? Now there is no one else here, you can ask any question......"

"Nope." Zhou Yang shook his head.

"Oh, okay, then, I'll ...... today" An Xiao hesitated for a moment, and then said.

"Uh-huh, Mr. An, you go to bed early."

"So are you."

"That's right......"

"What's wrong?"

"After the script of the new movie is written, what support and help are needed, you tell me as soon as possible, it will not be worse than "Night Walker"!" An Xiao hesitated for a long time and said this sentence again.

"Okay."

……………………

Zhou Yang left the office.

He felt that An Xiao had said a lot to him today, but he couldn't grasp the key points of the words.

Zhou Yang came to the bathroom for a big trip, and when he was about to get up and walk out, he heard a choking smell of smoke and dust coming from the bathroom.

Then, he heard a familiar voice.

"Secretary Chen, you mean...... Zhang Ke is likely to rise? ”

"Shhhh

"Why did he rely on a "Grandmaster" to become popular? His abilities in all aspects are not as good as Xu Kangnian and Xu Ke, and his qualifications are not as good as him, why can he ......" Zhou Yang heard Django lower his voice and said this.

"This is an organizational arrangement, the organization has its own considerations, don't chew your tongue, you can shoot the movie "Night Walker" well, don't be pulled away too much by Zhou Yang......"

"Zhou Yang, hehe, Secretary Chen, let me tell you this...... He is a related household that eats soft rice, since his debut, which movie has he made by himself? He shot the award-winning "Mine Bottom"? That's Wang Shuai and Wang Dao's help, he filmed "Chainsaw"? It was filmed with the help of the world-famous director Christian, speaking of which, he took shit luck and made a documentary film "Struggle", but it was all relying on the gimmick of PUBG, tell me, since his debut, which of his movies was made by himself? In the entire circle of directors, who is willing to obey him? Wang Shuai and Wang Dao, who cooperated with him, may not necessarily look down on him......"

A few hours ago, Django, who was extremely enthusiastic about himself and even a little respectful, seemed to be a different person at this moment, although his voice was very low, Zhou Yang could hear it clearly.

"How do you say such a thing...... Some people are just lucky enough to be reincarnated. The secretary Chen vaguely agreed.

"It's just that his parents gave birth to a good pair of skins...... Django's voice was full of unwillingness.

"You can just tell me about this, I'll drink some wine when you're...... Don't shout at anyone else! ”

"I understand, now this guy is in power, I don't want to offend him, in case the person behind him suddenly makes a move to seal me, I will lose a lot, after all, people are ...... Hehe. ”

"Be quiet, don't look for death at this sensitive time......"

"I'm quiet enough, don't worry, it's so late, everyone is gone, but Secretary An is really beautiful...... I don't know how many times more beautiful than the goddesses in the entertainment industry, Zhou Yang, this dog's day, can catch this line, it's really bullshit......"

"Shhhh Be quiet. ”

"Alright, alright."

"Smack."

"Who!" Django, who was already drunk, was stunned when he heard the sound.

Immediately afterward, he saw the door on the other side of the bathroom be pushed open.

And then......

His pupils narrowed.

saw Zhou Yang walk out.
