In fact, in the nineties, to a certain extent, the degree of conservative isolation of old Europe even exceeded that of China.

For example, later, technology upstarts, overnight riches, billionaires......

It seems to be commonplace, and it is not so unusual. And batches of such technology upstarts have also led the world's latest trend.

And yet now old Europe? In their eyes, computer IT is nothing more than a trick and does not get so much attention. As for technology upstarts like Li Yuan, I always feel that it is an opportunistic nouveau riche.

This is also different from the domestic one.

There was no such wealth in the country before. So seeing someone suddenly rise up, it feels like that.

Old Europe is different. They are considered to be "well-informed", and they have long been imprisoned by tradition. How can you become a billionaire overnight? No matter what, there must be a gradual process of accumulating wealth, right?

Moreover, the current Internet industry is basically running with money, and the profit model has not yet been found. Not even profitable, but the valuation is exaggerated. How do you look at it, this is all a scam of beating the drum and passing the flowers?

Therefore, those reporters did not have much excitement about Li Yuan's wealth. Instead, they will take the opportunity to ask some ill-intentioned questions:

"Li, according to your personal wealth statistics, has you entered the top ten in the world?"

"Sorry, I didn't care." Li Yuan snorted. Hong Kong is still cutting leeks up and down, who knows how much their wealth has changed?

"Li, you suddenly have so much wealth, what kind of life are you going to live in the future? Is it to enjoy life? Or continue to develop in the Internet field? ”

Li Yuan was a little strange. This is supposed to be a film festival, right? Why did you suddenly become interested in your wealth?

Actually, this is not surprising. In poor China, a freak like Li Yuan suddenly appeared, and he was ranked in the top 10 of the world's individuals. Of course, it can't be compared with those old families, but it's also quite powerful.

And now Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, has a personal wealth of more than 10 billion.

But even so, an old tech upstart like Bill Gates has worked hard for at least ten years, right? It's not like Li Yuan at all, it's only about three years to be full?

Therefore, for Li Yuan, old Europe is quite curious here. It's not like in Hong Kong, Brother Yuan often makes headlines, and this has become a public enemy of Hong Kong and a son-in-law of Hong Kong. It's relatively familiar.

Li Yuan smiled slightly: "Is this a lot of money?" You alright! But these are not the most important, the important thing is the development of science and technology, we have to completely change our lives. ”

"Really? Isn't that a lot of money? So are you ready to surpass Bill Gates? "That's what journalists care about.

Li Yuan shook his head with a smile: "Such a comparison is very meaningless. I don't want any diplomatic rhetoric, and gentlemanly manners, etc. We are parallel to Microsoft, itself a competitor in the browser space. So nothing fits very well. But there is one thing that Mr. Bill Gates and I have in common – we both want to break out of this traditional world, which is boring. Ha ha. ”

"So you're interested in making movies?"

"That's not the case, there was this film project in the first place. It's kind of a planned arrangement......"

Li Yuan and the reporters were communicating in English, while Liu Dehua and Jiang Qingqing were confused on the side, and even the smiles on their faces became a little stiff.

Glancing at it, Li Yuan reminded with a smile: "Everyone, do you have any questions for the two protagonists?" ”

"Huh." The reporters understood and asked a few painless questions under Li Yuan's translation.

Generally speaking, the time should be almost up, and it is time to end this on-site reporter's question.

However, at this moment, another reporter suddenly asked: "Li, first of all, congratulations, your film is very good." Now you seem to be successful in every field. Do you think that you are God's favorite? ”

"I don't know." Li Yuan smiled, "I personally think that I just seized the opportunity of the times. ”

"The opportunity of the times?"

"That's right! On the one hand, China is in a period of economic development. In fact, in China, I have also invested in many projects, and some projects have been successful in a daze. It shouldn't be my personal ability, it's just an opportunity that happens to come across; On the other hand, the world has also entered an information age, and my major happened to encounter such an outlet, which is also half a position ahead! Hehe. ”

In the laughter, Li Yuan felt that it was still necessary to be modest: "Regarding other aspects of investment, I will gradually withdraw from the management in the future." I'm going to put all my energy into the high-tech field. ”

"Exit management? Does that include film projects? ”

"It may be less creative, at most it is script writing, and there may be few opportunities for directors." After a pause, Li Yuan hurriedly added, "It's not that we are leaving the film industry, we will also launch many new projects in the future." ”

"Can you tell us about those new projects?"

"Uh...... It's mainly our Chinese theme. Oh! Maybe I'll also make a documentary about new technology bringing about a new life......"

“……”

……

Finally, today's screening is over. With Liu Dehua, the two of them found a seaview restaurant.

"Yuanshao, thank you this time. I've already read Bingku's report, and the sales have more than doubled!"

"Hua Zai, now you are also the boss, call me Yuan Zai!" Li Yuanle handed the broadcast to Jiang Qingqing.

Jiang Qingqing glanced at her: "I don't understand the foreign characters on it." ”

"We don't understand either, huh? It's all in French. Li Yuan teased Jiang Qingqing, "Look at the picture, whatever you want!" ”

"Yuan Zai, I read the comments in the newspaper, your advertising promotion of Tangzun Liquor is quite classic?"

Li Yuan smiled and waved his hand: "The main thing is good luck." Also welcome... Wenfu and Brother Hao each have a thousand-foot mansion, plus a big red envelope. ”

"Huh?" Liu Dehua was taken aback, and then laughed, "It turns out ...... Oooh! I didn't hear anything, huh? Hahaha! ”

Li Yuan didn't care about any of this. In fact, before Tang Zun wine and cider were launched, who knows if there were sales? The reason why Wenfu and Brother Hao were bought was for the enjoyment of the top and bottom. To be able to cut a few waves of leeks on the stock market, everything is already worth it.

The reason why he confessed these things to Liu Dehua was mainly to reassure him: "Birch! Don't be careful. We have more respect for the future of Bing Cool than Don. So everything doesn't need to be crooked, just and honest. There is no Bingku for this backdoor listing, and the IPO must expire in three years, so as to tap the maximum value. ”

"I understand. It's long-term business. ”

"That's right! After that, it's your business, build a new brand! ”

“……”

With a smile, the restaurant served a garlic bread, followed by a Mediterranean paella for one person.

"Huh? Qingqing, don't save me money? ”

"Hush." Jiang Qingqing shook her head, "I know you have a good appetite, and there are many, many more to come." Brother Hua and I have to keep in shape, it's up to you to gobble it up! Hee-hee-hee. ”

Li Yuan understands it, Nizi is messing around again, should it be full of fish and meat today?

But it didn't matter if it was wasteful, so they continued to talk:

"Brother Yuan, looking at their reaction today, it seems to be very popular? You won't really win the jackpot, will you? ”

"There is hope! Regardless of the grand prize, there should be one! Seeing the audience's reaction today, Li Yuan is also more optimistic.

Liu Dehua was also very happy: "In this case! I'll wait until the closing ceremony. I was ready to go back, and I was about to return, and the schedule was about to be full. ”

"That's for the best. If you can get the award, you can be regarded as a complete merit. ”

"Aren't we?" Jiang Qingqing was anxious to ask for credit.

"You should be. Not necessarily. According to the box office in Hong Kong, it is difficult to make money, which should be very insightful, right? ”

Liu Dehua laughed.

"Carmen in Mong Kok" starring him and Jacky Cheung was the film directed by Wong Kar-wai. flickered Deng Guangrong invested 40 million, thinking that the dream lineup would be able to make a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, the film received rave reviews, but ...... Hong Kong people really don't like art films!

was so angry that Deng Guangrong vomited blood directly! Vomiting blood here is not an adjective, but was sent directly to the hospital! I can only break my teeth and swallow it in my stomach!

Of course, Jacky Cheung's performance in this movie later became a variety of emojis, and it also became a pandemic in the Internet era!

One by one, art films like this are really not suitable for the market of Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Since the total investment of "Millionaire in the Slums" has reached 51 million, it will not be able to recover the cost in the near future.

"Birch, how do you arrange these?"

"Oh! You and A-Qing are going to get busy on their own. I have my own arrangements, so I won't bother you. Hehe. ”

“……”

……

Once again, I stepped on the red carpet of the closing ceremony. But this time, I met the crew of "Happy Spring", as well as the King of Sunglasses, Leslie Cheung, Tony Leung and Guan Shuyi.

"Fortunately, Brother Yuan. I have admired the daimyo for a long time! After Liu Dehua's introduction, Leslie Cheung joked. And the others are all stuffy gourds, but it seems that Leslie Cheung's personality is very cheerful.

Thinking of his brother's future, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a little regretful: "I've read the newspaper, your call for winning the award this time is very high?" Especially Director Wang? ”

"Aren't you the same?"

"Then we will win the prize together. I'll arrange the celebration banquet. Waiting to pop champagne together? ”

"Isn't it your Tang Zun red wine?"

Li Yuan laughed: "I promise it's not a cow's Mi Qingye!" ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Even a few of the women were laughing and trembling......

After the greetings, the award ceremony officially began. In these days, anyway, it was boring to be idle, so Li Yuan and Jiang Qingqing watched a lot of films that participated in the competition.

Feel it down...... How. Running to the death on the evil path of European and American art, but failing to grasp the essence of European and American art - political correctness!

Let's talk about it!

Anyway, now in European and American art films, the fabric on the body has become a zero, and the plot has become extremely weird, in addition to the constant fungus, only the dark and disgusting part remains?

Therefore, those European and American creators, they have not yet figured out political correctness. What ltgb, what single mother, what bottom human nature......

On the contrary, "Springtime" and "Millionaire in the Slums", these two films are relatively normal. And it captures the core content of political correctness. The probability of winning the prize is relatively high.

Sure enough, with the awarding of one award after another, some people in the audience were happy and some were worried. In the end, there are several heavyweight awards.

As expected, Wong Kar-wai won the Silver Palm for Best Director with "Happy Spring". As the remaining awards became fewer and fewer, Li Yuan became more and more excited and excited.

“…… Best Picture "Slumdog Millionaire", and welcomes..."

Hearing that the award presenters had read their own films, the two of them had fallen into ecstasy and hugged each other tightly.

"Yuanzai, congratulations!"

"It's something we got together. Ha ha. ”

"Yuanzi, are we the Palme d'Or?"

"Of course! Who do I think looks down on us? Hahaha! ”

“……”

When he got on the stage, Li Yuan was surprised to find that the Palme d'Or this time was actually three yellow eggs? There are three Best Picture?

It's a bit funny, does the Cannes Film Festival still have a reputation? But...... It's my business, as long as I get my hands on it, who cares about the others?

In his acceptance speech, Li Yuan did not play freely, and thanked him decently. It was because of the previous interview that he had some scruples.

However, when he stepped down, the on-site interview still did not let him go:

"Lee, congratulations, congratulations on winning the Palme d'Or."

"Thank you."

"You should be the richest award-winning director in history, right?"

"Uh...... There should still be Mr. Hughes, right? He used to be the richest man in the world. ”

"Wow! Do you also want to challenge the richest man in the world? ”

Li Yuan was really a little impatient. Why are you interested in a film festival?

"Huh. That's not my goal. My goal is to make miracles. ”

"What miracle? Like when you got the Palme d'Or? ”

"Sort of! But I can reveal here that the new miracle must be shaking the world! ”

"Wow! I'm looking forward to it. Then we will wait for your news. ”

"Thank you!"

“……”

……

For Li Yuan's bold words, everyone who heard them laughed.

What miracle can shake the world? Could it be the cloned sheep from the previous ones? It is nothing more than an arrogant young man who, after several successes, begins to speak freely.

Then again, that's understandable. After all, Li Yuan's achievements are not easy......

And Li Yuan, who returned to the audience, greeted Jiang Qingqing and hugged him warmly: "Brother Yuan, hahaha, I'm so happy." I wonder if they will agree to the screening when they get home? ”

Li Yuan smiled: "Let's keep a low profile for the time being!" ”
