When Li Yuan entered the screening room, he found that there were fewer audiences than expected.

In addition to dozens of real fans, the kind of fans who are not picky eaters, the other more than 100 people are reporters and representatives of film companies who came to the organizing committee of the film festival to cheer.

Anyway, after all, after being shortlisted for the main competition unit, there will be a few of them.

Where, like decades later, Chinese art films already have a well-known brand (here it needs to be acknowledged, mainly due to the credit of the sixth generation of directors such as Jia Kechang. Although their films do not have many audiences in China, they also have a number of international famous directors and stars (such as Lao Mouzi and ...... Fan 800 million. Ahem). Plus the vast number of hot insiders and Internet celebrities?

It's really not bragging, the auditorium of 2,000 people can't be squeezed.

However, in the early nineties? Not many people would be interested. I don't know the name of the movie, and it's not a Chinese kung fu movie?

"Hey, Lee, long time no see!"

"Quentin! My friend. Congratulations! I'll be waiting for your celebratory dinner."

"Fack! We didn't have a budget at all. That stingy old Jew."

"I'm paying? Am I not an investor? Let Harvey, the fat dead man, arrange it."

Seeing Li Yuan's eyebrows fluttering, Quentin laughed: "I understand."

「……」

The two rogue dogs warmly hugged and greeted. Since "Vulgar" caused a sensation throughout Cannes, Quentin can be described as a spring breeze on these days. He also took the initiative to bring some friends over to cheer.

After introducing each other, there was no need for any opening ceremony, and there were not even a few spectators. It's better to show it directly:

During the Republic of China, the ten-mile ocean field. A street thug who sells stolen goods and cheats a thousand ways, he has three friends......

But the gangsters are targeted by a gang boss. Because the gangster's father opened a small restaurant, the gang boss wants to occupy this property......

In the Japanese concession, a group of young people with books specialize in making and selling unique products. And their upline is a book agent disguised as a businessman, polite on the surface, but ruthless and vicious on the inside......

The warlord and several of his men. In fact, they are a family of soldiers and bandits, and they have become robbers......

In addition, there are two thieves who steal, a cold-faced killer with a pampered son......

In the original "Two Smoking Guns", due to the large number of characters, the relationship between each other is extremely complicated. Therefore, in the beginning stage of the film, a lot of space was spent on the introduction, which took about half an hour.

But even so, because almost all the characters in the film do not have very distinctive features, words and deeds. Plus the original version is a British film, no matter the black or white, all of them are in a suit? It's hard to tell. Even the words are opened in yellow from the beginning to the end of the "F", which is very raw on the surface, but in fact there is no difference?

So when watching, especially in the first half hour, almost all the audience is in the clouds, and even feels quite boring.

This is why the original "Two Smoking Guns" has extremely high reviews and very high lows, but in the first film festivals, except for winning the Best Director Award at the Tokyo Film Festival, which is almost the "Township Enterprise Award", there are almost no important film awards.

Because of the epoch-making work of multi-line narrative structure, the film industry will slowly reminisce, and the more it is savored, the more exquisite it feels. It really does a handsome and ugly!

But in terms of other skills in the original film, there are still quite a few shortcomings.

However, this time Li Yuan's adaptation, he compressed the first half an hour to less than five minutes.

And these groups of characters can be easily distinguished through the clothing lines.

What about the gangsters? There are many Hong Kong and Taiwan films; How about a gangster boss? There are also many in Hong Kong and Taiwan films; A ruthless book smiling tiger? It's not difficult, is it? As long as you bow often, you will perform in the obscene way; A family of bandits? Isn't that a bandit?

But then again, after all, the beginning is only five minutes, and the plot is quite trivial, and the audience still watches it rarely

Lake flats.

Until all the characters suddenly came together, and they danced a street dance absurdly. It is similar to the axe dance at the beginning of "Kung Fu".

In the inexplicable midst of the audience, the picture cracked and turned into several sub-shots, and then quickly connected together, quickly sorting out the context......

The audience burst into laughter and applause. Not to mention how wonderful it is, let's just say that this spirit of exploration of film art is completely worthy of encouragement.

……

The audience immediately lifted their spirits, this time it seems that they have picked up a treasure? Since there are very few ordinary spectators, almost all of them are experts, so you can immediately judge the subtleties.

The plot of "Two Golden Guns" is actually very simple - nothing more than a few groups of people making mistakes, and then the main action dies intentionally or unintentionally, and in the end, except for the protagonists, almost all of them receive boxed lunches......

But Li Yuan added many comedy elements with Chinese characteristics. There is also a Hong Kong movement coach invited. Therefore, in terms of comedy and visual effects, it is completely several levels better than the original "Two Smoking Guns".

Films like the multi-line narrative structure, as long as they don't mess up several main lines, are almost all done in one go. And the audience also watched it with relish.

Before you know it, the film ended with warm applause from the audience.

There are even many studios who are eager to try. Because they have already judged that, in addition to artistry, the film also has a high commercial value.

Amid cheers and whistles, Li Yuan and the crew members walked to the stage to be interviewed by the reporters present.

Since "Vulgar" has already appeared at this year's festival, the media has been praised as "a great innovation that comes once in decades". But I never thought that another work would appear here? That's a double blessing!

"Lee, it's an honor to watch this wonderful movie. I just want to ask, how did you come up with the structure of the film?"

"It's simple. I just thought about it, and I came up with it."

In the midst of the laughter, someone asked, "Lee, we found out that you and Director Quentin are friends. His "Vulgar" has received rave reviews, I wonder what you think of you?"

"An epoch-making work. In fact, when I was working on "Two Golden Guns", I used to communicate with Quentin. And his ideas also inspired me a lot. Vulgarity belongs to a wireless narrative structure, and my film should belong to a multi-line narrative structure, both of which are experimental works in narrative techniques."

Here, Li Yuan will definitely blow each other in business. Quentin whistled excitedly.

"Lee, I heard this is your first work?"

"Exactly. I'm sorry! There are other people in the crew, can you give them a chance?"

"Hahaha......

「……」

In fact, in A-category film festivals, there will still be fierce competition internally. Especially the Cannes Film Festival has always been arrogant, and they want to be the world's NO.1!

In the fifties and sixties, however, a new wave first emerged in Europe. As you should know, the New Wave has influenced several generations of directors, and even affected all parts of the world, including a large number of directors from Hong Kong, Taiwan and the mainland.

The birthplace of the New Wave is mainly France, and it is also the pride of French culture.

But as we entered the '80s and '90s, the box office of the New Wave deteriorated.

Because the New Wave advertises the author's film, and the film is the director's feelings? But what about the audience's feelings? Who wants to see you moaning without illness?

Coupled with the continuous innovation of Hollywood's technology, especially the revolution in special effects, represented by commercial films such as "Terminator 2" and "Jurassic Park" introduced earlier, they swept the world at once, greatly squeezing the box office space of the author's films.

And if the movie doesn't even have a box office yet? So what else is there to talk about?

In the end, it slowly fell into a vicious circle. Art films began to develop in a perverted and large-scale direction, which suddenly made gentlemen all over the world cool and crooked. And this is not over, it will be fully politically correct in the future, and it will even be infected in the field of commercial films, even mermaids are special

With a black actress?

Isn't there a joke? If it's a black, gay, fat, single mother, or fringe person of any faith, congratulations, you've got an award.

But human aesthetics can't be changed, right?

A good movie is a good movie! A bad movie is a bad movie! It's not something that can be reversed by giving a few awards.

Therefore, in recent years, the Cannes Film Festival has been more embarrassed by the organizing committee. The quality of the exhibited films is getting lower and lower, and the reputation is getting worse and worse.

But at this film festival, "Vulgar" was born? "Two Golden Guns" is another blockbuster. If you add a few excellent films such as Lao Mouzi's "Alive"? It's just a fantastic session, isn't it?

Especially the first two films, they are not unconventional through perverted large-scale, they are truly groundbreaking innovations. And even the commercial elements are very good, which can attract most of the audience.

There's nothing to say, just blow it!

Enter the Dragon, the birth of two classics!

The rise of new forces leads the revolution of film storytelling!

"Vulgar" and "Two Big Smoking Guns", two new star directors flash Cannes!

……

In an instant, Li Yuan and they went from obscurity to a sensation in Cannes. The organizing committee of the film festival also urgently scheduled the films, and seven additional screenings were held in a row. And the venue was full.

Even Liu Dehua and Zhang Guozhong couldn't close their mouths. They were originally a little hesitant about Li Yuan's three scripts, but now they immediately decided on "Millionaire in the Slum". There is only one request - Li Yuan must continue to be the director!

Huang Jiaojiao and Ying Xin were even more overjoyed. There is still a chance to walk the red carpet of the closing ceremony? Of course, it's a big purchase to celebrate......

The news soon spread throughout Cannes, throughout France, throughout Europe, and all over the world......

I have to admit that the magic of the movie is almost unlimited, it will be sought after by all kinds of media, and it will also create one of the best influences.

Let's talk about the United States! If you talk about the film industry, maybe the output value of the film industry is not even in the top ten. But as long as the United States is mentioned, except for Wall Street, it is good to dock, right? Finally, Silicon Valley was added.

That's why the influence is so great!

So in an instant, Li Yuan's fame resounded around the world at the speed of light.

One thing to say, Li Yuan was also well-known before, and even made a few big news.

But someone has gone too far, a historian for a while, a businessman for Africa, an Internet entrepreneur, and finally a map cannon for the global scientific community? By the way, even the Rockefeller family brought it?

Therefore, Li Yuan's identity is very separated, except for a very small number of people with a heart, others do not associate all his doppelgangers. The same is true for Hong Kong and Taiwan. Many Hong Kong media also don't know about Li Yuan's things abroad.

The key is - be famous!

No one knows! And no one is going to dig at all!

This time, however, was completely different. Why did this kid go to make movies again? And highly acclaimed at the Cannes Film Festival?

As long as it attracts the attention of those world-class media, all public information cannot be hidden. And as more and more information is mined, the media is more and more interested.

it! This kid only graduated from high school, and he couldn't even afford to go to college!

it! This kid once single-handedly singled out the entire European and American historical circles! And how many bestsellers have you published?

it! This kid started from scratch and now owns a listed company and has successfully become a billionaire!

it! This kid once went to Africa and quarreled with refugee aid organizations?

it! This kid is a good software engineer. He once presided over the development of a certain breaking software, which was highly praised by the FBI, and he also gave a lesson to the Hong Kong police (scolding). In addition, even the dandelion disease was developed and researched by this kid? Finally, he founded an Internet company - Parallel Line Technology?

it! This kid has now become a director, and he is still successful

Got a movie? Shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival?

……

If this is not a legend, then what else is a legend?

All of a sudden, Luoyang paper became expensive, and the media all over the world reported it, and many people finally knew about Li Yuan and his.

Interestingly, on the contrary, the country is still dead.

In the early 90s, domestic entertainment news did not rise very much. The most important thing is...... No money!

Entertainment news on the mainland is better, but only reprinted from Hong Kong and Taiwan is reprinted, and even reprinted is quite outdated. Not to mention overseas, almost nothing.

For example, this Cannes Film Festival! In a few decades, even celebrities will bring their own entire reporting team. However, until now, there is not even a reporter on the spot, huh?

Because the media simply can't afford to travel!

The other is business news, where private sector bosses are reluctant to show their heads. In fact, look at the later Jack Ma and Sister Dong? Farts don't like to show their heads? The point is that the domestic media simply don't pay attention to it! I don't want to publish such news.

It wasn't until around the turn of the millennium that the rich list appeared, and this situation slowly changed!
