The jury of the Palme d'Or is made up of some of the industry's leading film professors and some of the top directors and actors.

The former is to invite professors from film and television universities around the world, and the latter is to come to some people who have achieved good results.

The composition of the jury varies from year to year, but what is the same is that it is absolutely impartial, and there is no personal emotion in the judging.

It is precisely because of this that the Palme d'Or Film Festival has achieved what it is today, becoming one of the last gold film awards in the world.

"Professor Mark, it's an honour to be on the judging panel of the Palme d'Or with you." A woman in a burgundy dress walked up to the man named Professor Mark and smiled softly.

Dressed in a suit and a black tie around his chest, Professor Marco looked less like a university professor and more like a business person.

"Matti, it's hard to imagine that you didn't make a film for the Palme d'Or this year, was it because you were hit last year?" The wrinkles on Professor Mark's face twitched slightly, and he tried his best to squeeze out a seemingly gentle smile.

The woman, Marti, is a director who was shortlisted for the Oscar for Best International Film the year before last and was nominated for Best Screenplay at the Palme d'Or last year for a film called "My Space."

But it's a pity that she was shortlisted but couldn't get any substantive awards, but she only ran with her for two years, which made her fans feel a pity.

But then again, although Matti is only a runner, with this qualification, she is completely enough to become the jury of the Palme d'Or.

"Poke me in the sore spot as soon as we meet, Professor Mark, you are really ruthless!" Director Matti's voice was slightly bitter.

"Hahaha, I'm sorry, I thought you wouldn't care about this, come on, I'm waiting for you to come back next year!" Professor Mark said encouragingly.

Director Ma Ti responded: "So I agreed to be invited to be one of the jury this year, just because I want to grow more here!"

As the two continued to talk, more members of the jury entered the room.

"Hey, Matthi! Long time no see! ”

Outside the hallway, a short man wearing round-framed punk glasses, dressed rather exaggeratedly, wearing a pink shirt and pants, and a pair of white leather shoes on his feet, walked in, and became the center of everyone's attention as soon as he entered.

"Sparrow? Your taste in dressing is really getting more and more anti-human! ”

Behind the man in pink clothes, a tall and proud white-haired woman walked in, her face looked a little cold, her hair was coiled, and even her words were so cold.

"Hahahaha, Susan, long time no see! The "Out of Control Situation" you participated in last year was so good, and I still remember the role you played! ”

"How about inviting you to be the heroine of my next movie?"

Then another male director walked in, and although he was wearing a serious suit, he was like a playboy and not very stable.

"Director Klett, thank you for the invitation, but I don't want to take on the show in the short term, and I want to take a break for a while recently." Susan turned around, her tone still cold.

"That's a shame!"

As more and more people grew, the originally quiet room suddenly became a little lively.

"By the way, before I came, the official didn't tell me who was the chief judge, who of you is the chief judge of this film festival?" Sparrow asked, leaning on a cane, his every move acting like he was doing performance art.

As soon as these words came out, the few people in the room who were invited to serve as judges all looked at each other, and they all saw the doubts in each other's eyes.

No one admitted it, which means that the chief judge has not yet arrived, and suddenly they are all curious about who will be the chief judge of this movie.

"Hehehe, everyone's here?"

As the voice sounded, at the door, an old man with gray hair walked in.

From his staggering steps and the wrinkles on his face, he knew that this was an old man.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm getting older, and I'm not feeling good about my stomach, so I've kept you waiting."

The few people who had been greeting each other just now all turned around and looked at this kind-faced old man.

"Professor Jon!"

Soon, Susan, who had always been calm and clear, revealed the identity of the old man, and several other people also swallowed, obviously knowing the origin of the old man.

"Oh my God, I didn't expect this year's Palme d'Or to invite you to be a judge, it's incredible!"

"Professor Jon, it's a pleasure to see you in Cannes."

"What a privilege to be with you, Professor Jon, on the judges!"

Everyone present spoke in a rather surprised tone.

The old man in front of him, even if he hadn't said that he was the chief judge of the jury, everyone had decided that he was the chief judge this time.

Not why, just because he's Professor Jon!

A graduate of York University, he studied compositional perspectives such as short films, films, and television as a student, and at the age of 28 he wrote a book on the art of film and television.

And this "Film and Television Art" is now included as a professional textbook by quite a few film and television universities, which can be said to be the cornerstone of modern film!

At the age of twenty-nine, Professor Jon became a teacher at the New York Film Academy and was invited to give public lectures at top film schools around the world.

Professor Jon, who has been in office for more than 30 years and is now 65 years old, has a very high position in the film academic world.

If nothing else, just talk about the current Hollywood, just smash a brick down, and it is estimated that you can smash a few students who have a master-apprentice relationship with Professor Jon.

With more than 30 years of educational experience, there are quite a lot of students under his name, and there are many directors who have won the Palme d'Or and the Oscar!

Whether it is a director, an actor or a screenwriter, anyone who is engaged in film and television-related work has heard the name of this professor.

"Don't be so surprised, people will always want to move when they get older, just take this opportunity to take a look at some good works recently." Professor Jon walked slowly into the room with a cane in the face of everyone's shocked gazes.

Among them, Professor Mark, who was also a teacher, greeted him directly, not to mention how respectful he looked.

If there is a generation in the film industry, the old man in front of him is undoubtedly a mythical existence, and it is not an exaggeration for filmmakers all over the world to call him a teacher.

"Professor Jon, your presence has made this year's Palme d'Or even more meaningful." Matti exhaled softly, her eyes becoming quite expectant.

Director Sparrow said: "I can't imagine how many people will regret not attending this year's Cannes Film Festival if the news of your appointment as the chief judge of the jury spreads!"

"yes, I can't wait to see the expressions of the directors who didn't choose to participate in this year's festival, it will be fun!" Klett also chuckled, and his heart was also on fire.

The old man in front of him is Professor Jon, and this name alone can increase the gold content of this year's Cannes Film Festival a lot!

And if there are a few more widely circulated classics in the works that came to the festival this year, then this film festival may have to leave a name in the history of cinema.
