Chapter 157: Not Particular! 【3/3】
Yin Wa is a French girl born in Cannes.
Her mother is German and her father is Belgian, but because of the movie, the two chose to settle here in Cannes.
So Yin Wa, who has lived in Cannes since she was a child, has almost been accompanied by movies for a long time.
Maybe it's because I've watched too many art films, so Yin Wa is more precocious than girls of the same age.
Therefore, after watching "Search", Yin Wa felt a burst of fear while grieving for the heroine.
It's just that what makes her most strange is why it is the same Huaxia movie, but the Huaxia in this movie is different from other movies?
The movie "Searching" in the city of Xia is too modern.
This is completely inconsistent with the impression of Huaxia in Yin Wa's mind.
So when the movie ended, Yin Wa couldn't help but ask her own questions.
It's just that in the face of the little girl's pure eyes, Gao Fei suddenly felt a little sad.
However, he quickly collected his thoughts, looked at Yin Wa gently, and said:
"This is the city of Huaxia!"
"This is the world is constantly changing, and the same is true of China."
"If you have the opportunity, you can go to Huaxia to see it for yourself!"
After that, Gao Fei smiled softly at Yin Wa, and followed the crew to the backstage.
……
Monica Bellucci doesn't seem to want people to know that she and Goofy know each other.
So after watching the movie, she just nodded politely to the crew and left coldly.
Seeing this, Gao Fei didn't think much about it anymore.
However, after greeting Zhang Ziyi backstage, Gao Fei realized that she had come to deliver an invitation for the Huayi brothers.
Of course, the so-called sending of invitations is just a reason.
In fact, when she was in China, Zhang Ziyi had already watched "Search".
How to put it, the movie is good, and the script is good.
The only thing that makes Zhang Ziyi feel bad is that the heroine is not her.
Don't look at Zhang Ziyi, who is now crowned by the domestic media as the "International Chapter".
But whether it is the three major European film festivals, or the Oscars and Golden Globe Awards, she only stops at nominations.
From this point of view, she is inferior to Gong Li and Zhang Manyu.
Zhang Ziyi, who has always been very competitive, is naturally unwilling to do so.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be filming movies like "Jasmine Blossom", "2046" and "Purple Butterfly".
It's just a pity that in the end, neither Lou Ye nor Wang Jiawei brought her a certain crown of actresses.
Of course, she also has too much hope for Goofy.
came to cheer this time, but I just thought that Gao Fei's vision was good, and he might be a good producer in the future.
That's why I came here to make a good fate.
And when Gao Fei and Zhang Ziyi were talking, Liu Yifei, Wan Qian and others were waiting with envy on the side.
After all, no matter how many black spots Zhang Ziyi has on her body, she is indeed a role model for many female stars in China today.
It's like Fan Bingbing, who is still in Huayi today, almost dreamed of becoming an "international fan".
On the other hand, Wang Jiawei seemed to be surprised that Wang Jing was willing to make such a movie, which made him quite emotional.
is also a representative of Xiangjiang filmmakers, Wang Jiawei thinks that he knows Wang Jing well.
So he always thought that Wang Jing couldn't make art films, but this guy didn't want to make them.
Later, I didn't know what Wang Jiawei, Wang Jing, and Ning Hao said, but there were frequent laughter.
However, the two of them couldn't stay long as judges, so they soon quit and left.
After this experience, both the reaction of the judges and the reaction of the audience made the crew of "Search" much more confident.
So when a few people came to the interview area to face the reporters, it became more and more natural.
Not surprisingly, a reporter asked the same question as Yin Wa.
Because they also don't believe that such a modern and prosperous city will appear in China.
In this regard, in addition to telling him that it was Huaxia in a righteous and stern manner, Gao Fei could only let him go and see it himself.
However, the optimism of reporters and viewers is nothing.
The Cannes Film Festival's house book, "Screen", that night, only gave "Search" a score of 2.1.
It's not too bad, but it's not good, it can only be said to be a mediocre score.
Gao Fei and Wang Jing were quite determined about this, but Ning Hao, Liu Yifei and others couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
But at this point, Gao Fei has no choice, he has already done everything he can do, and the rest can only be left to Providence.
……
In other words, although the score of "Search" is not high, because it focuses on novel themes such as "cyber violence", it is still very attractive among young people.
Those who are older and various media are more interested in the phenomenon of "online violence" portrayed by them.
After all, in his experience, sooner or later such a thing would happen in their own country.
So it didn't take long for "Search" to become a dark horse for this film festival.
There are even quite a few people who believe that it is a strong candidate to compete for the Palme d'Or.
Under this kind of public opinion, when the crew of "Search" came to the Majestic Hotel on the morning of the 22nd, they were naturally warmly welcomed by the Wang brothers.
Even Feng Dagang, who has always liked to put on a shelf to talk about his qualifications, greeted him with a smile this time.
Of course, Feng Dagang can't help it.
After all, the filming cost of "Night Banquet" this time can be said to be more than his previous movies combined.
Originally, the estimated cost of "Night Banquet" was 6 million US dollars, but as the film rolled out, Director Feng, who tried to shoot a blockbuster for the first time, was inevitably a little uncontrollable.
As a result, the cost of the movie was overspent all the way, and by the time the movie was completed, the total cost was close to $20 million.
Under such pressure, Feng Dagang tried his best to sell "Night Banquet" for more money.
Not counting the other expenses of this "Night Banquet" cocktail party, 2,500 bottles of champagne alone were prepared.
It can be seen from this point that the two Wang Zong of Huayi do not think that relying on the domestic box office alone can make the movie return to its original cost.
So now it's all about earning some foreign exchange overseas!
For this reason, in addition to the main creator of "Night Banquet", the director of the United States, Oliver Stone, the chairman of the Venice Film Festival, Marco Mule, as well as Hollywood movie star Willem Dafoe, Japanese movie star Hiroshi Shosho and other overseas filmmakers also rushed to the stage.
Looking at this grand formation, Ning Hao, who was eating a buffet in the corner, couldn't help but sigh with envy:
"That's how a husband should be!"
As soon as these words came out, Hu Ge on the side couldn't help but nod his head.
Speaking of this trip to Cannes, it can be regarded as completely igniting Hugo's heart.
After seeing such a scene, he suddenly seemed to be a little uninterested in the TV series promised by Sister K.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ponder.
As for Liu Yifei, Wan Qian and others, they also have their own ideas at this time.
So for a moment, the corner suddenly fell silent.
But Goofy doesn't have as much sentimentality as they do.
When he guessed that Huayi held this drinking party to sell films, he took Han Li to wander around during the drinking party.
He doesn't talk to others, but from time to time he takes a few glasses of wine and eats a little to show his presence.
As a result, many film businessmen who attended the reception recognized him.
So it was inevitable that there would be another temptation.
Of course, Goofy is not going to talk about the business of "Search" at the reception of "Night Banquet".
So most of them just exchanged business cards and talked about it at a later date.
Seeing Gao Fei's familiar behavior, Wang Jing and his party not far away suddenly cried and laughed.
I don't know why, they suddenly felt a little sympathetic to that Feng Daolai!
……
Gao Fei didn't know if that drinking party would be useful to the Wang brothers, but it was quite useful to him.
Because after the screening of "Search" on the same day, many film dealers have contacted him and wanted to buy the broadcast rights.
Coupled with the rumors that I didn't know who released it later, it was claimed that Wang Jiawei, as the chairman of the jury, would definitely award the Palme d'Or to the only Chinese film shortlisted this time.
So many movie businessmen decided to gamble.
Because it is definitely cheaper to buy a film before winning an award than after winning an award.
Gao Fei didn't know whether to be happy or angry about this situation.
After all, as soon as this rumor came out, it must have been a negative impact for "Search".
It's just that after discussing it with Han Li, Gao Fei still decided to eat what he could eat first.
Anyway, the rumors have already happened, and it's too late to refute them.
He might as well take this opportunity to sell "Search" in a few more countries.
Thinking about it like this, Goofy felt much better.
It's just that he and Han Li are busy bargaining all day long, while Wang Jing and Ning Hao and the others are living very happily.
The group is either watching movies or shopping and seeing attractions every day.
Wang Jing even took the time to make an appointment with two French models and went to a small island not far away for two days and one night, which attracted a burst of spurning from Hu Ge and Ning Hao.
How can this kind of thing be eaten alone?
As soon as these words came out, Wang Jing didn't do anything, but choked Gao Fei enough.
A bunch of bastards know how to enjoy themselves, and they don't know how to order a takeout for him?
It's been so long since I've known them in vain!
Eh~ If you are careless in making friends, you are not ladylike when you meet someone!
