Chapter 321: Cannes! (2-in-1)

The time for a smooth shoot passed quickly.

Even after arriving in Lin'an, Xuluo, who already had experience in filming here, now seems more relaxed to enter the state.

is still the same sentence, he just needs to act decently.

The protagonist of "The Legend of the New White Lady" is the White Lady.

Even if the white lady is imprisoned, she is still Hu Meiniang.

Whether it is Xu Xian or Xu Shilin, they are just supporting roles around their existence.

So as long as Xuluo can roughly keep up with the rhythm, coupled with the beautiful big sister releasing water, he did not oppress him in all aspects, but instead gave him a play, so Xuluo now has a maximum of more than a dozen scenes to reshoot a day.

By May 7th, this fluidity had to stop.

Because this is before the filming of "The Legend of the New White Lady", Xuluo told Yang Jie.

This year's Cannes Film Festival is on May 9th, and the crew of "Farewell My Concubine" will fly to Cannes, France on May 8th, start to promote and participate in the festival on the 9th, and finally wait for the lottery results on the 20th.

Xu Luo didn't think he would play Xu Xian before, so this itinerary was set a long time ago.

In order to persuade Xuluo to act, Yang Jie could only agree to him.

But she didn't expect that He Qin's mother had such an incident halfway through, and it was delayed for another eight days.

In this way, Xuluo would have to be delayed for a total of 22 days.

For a crew whose filming period was originally only 3 months, this is too long.

Even more reluctant to be Xuluo are Sweet Girl and Sister Zhao.

With Xuluo's continuous attack, Zhao Yazhi was already unable to hold on, but he was reluctant to let go.

If it weren't for the fact that she kept her identity in mind and escaped at the most dangerous times many times, she didn't know how many times she had been eaten by Xuluo.

It's the same with sweet girls.

She now sees herself as Xuluo's girlfriend, except for the fact that she must break up with her boyfriend after filming is completed, before she can give Xuluo, the rest is at the mercy of Xuluo.

Well, at present, it's about the same as Sister Zhao.

After all, you can't swallow it one by one, which is equivalent to hanging a teenager, but it makes the young teenager uncomfortable.

God knows how much he wants to see Sister Lin, at least he can eat a full meal.

Therefore, when he left the crew, Xuluo was quite happy.

However, there were not many flights to Beijing, so the teenager could only catch the plane from Lin'an at 10 p.m. and arrive in Beijing after 1 a.m. the next day.

The plane was at 6 o'clock in the morning, since it was all like this, Xuluo didn't bother to go to Sister Lin's rented apartment, so he simply found a small hotel next to the airport to sleep and waited until the crew came directly to the airport to meet him.

Here, Xuluo saw Chen Xiaoxu, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

She came with Director Kai Ge, Ge You, and Zhang Fengyi, and Zhang Guorong stayed in Xiangjiang to wait for them.

Except for these main creators, there is no one else.

After all, the issue of funding still needs to be considered - although it is a false money.

Since there were no outsiders, after Xuluo saw Sister Lin, he stepped forward and gave her a loving hug and hugged her tightly.

Chen Xiaoxu is also very happy, she hasn't seen her man for two months. ….

used to be together every once in a while, and the girl couldn't feel it, but after being separated for a long time, she felt the deep longing in her heart.

In the days when she was about to return to China from Miguo, she wanted to be Xuluo every day.

It's a pity that Xuluo is still filming in Lin'an, and the two can only make phone calls after coming back, and this is the first time they have met again.

So Xuluo hugged her so enthusiastically, Sister Lin not only did not shy away, but gave Xuluo a very enthusiastic response.

She also held Xuluo in both hands.

Seeing that the two were so affectionate, Director Kai Ge shook his head and said to Ge You next to him, "Youzi, look at it, young and true

Okay, right?"

Ge You smiled: "We're not old, we're still adolescence!"

"Go, go!"

Kai Ge laughed and scolded.

At this time, most of the planes flying to Europe have to transfer in Xiangjiang.

Took off at 6 o'clock, then went to Xiangjiang to pick up Zhang Guorong and then transferred, and finally arrived in Cannes, a total of 12 hours by plane, a total of 14 hours.

But when I arrived in Cannes, it was actually two o'clock in the afternoon!

The reason is naturally that France and China have a time difference of 6 hours, and it should be 8 o'clock in the evening Beijing time.

During the few hours on the plane that took off from Xiangjiang, everyone congratulated Zhang Guorong face-to-face.

The reason is simple.

During the Spring Festival in February this year, wasn't "Farewell My Concubine" finished?

Then everyone separated, and Zhang Guorong and Xu Feng also returned to Xiangjiang.

On April 21st, the 10th Xiangjiang Academy Awards held an award ceremony, and Zhang Guorong won the Xiangjiang Academy Award for Best Actor with "The True Story of A Fei" he participated in the first half of last year!

This is a rare recognition of Zhang Guorong.

Because Zhang Guorong is very good-looking, he is most likely to be thought to eat by his face, thus doubting his acting skills.

That is, this time, with the help of the king of sunglasses, Zhang Guorong was crowned the actor with an indisputable advantage.

At the same time, "The True Story of A Fei" also won the super awards for Best Cinematography, Best Art Design, Best Director and Best Picture.

So now, after a few months, when I see Zhang Guorong again, everyone naturally wants to congratulate him.

Zhang Guorong is very humble in life, even if he wins such an award, he doesn't have any pride, and he is a little embarrassed to say it.

……

Looking at the sunny sun outside the cabin, everyone thought it was magical.

At the exit of Cannes-Mandeliae Airport, they met Xu Feng, a co-producer who had already been to Cannes three times, most recently arriving in Cannes on May 1.

Xu Feng was already familiar with driving in Cannes, so he directly hired a business vehicle and took them all the way to the hotel.

Cannes is a pretty little town, but apart from the beach, it has several main roads, not every one of which is a business district.

Xu Feng asked the car to take everyone around the outside of the city, but it only took about ten minutes.

However, when passing by the beach, Ge You's eyes widened: "Oops, why do you wear so little...... Oh, there's no ......?"

He didn't finish what he was saying, but every man in the car looked in the direction he was looking. ….

Men, it's all like that.

Chen Xiaoxu was so angry and funny that he could only quietly pinch his man.

The car that carried them to the Hilton or Intercontinental was not a small apartment hotel called a loft apartment.

It's a small two-story building with eight rooms for rent.

The hotel is located next to the noon beach, just a little past the most famous promenade and promenade beach, and just over 100 meters past the Palais des Festivals, the temple of the Cannes Film Festival.

The Cannes Film Festival award ceremony was held there on the 20th.

Xu Feng chartered the attic apartment, and the daily rent was 2,000 US dollars, including three meals and usual coffee, afternoon tea, etc.

Don't be too expensive, in the past few days of the Cannes Film Festival, a room in a three-star hotel costs five or six hundred dollars, and a five-star hotel costs two or three thousand dollars.

Of course, after such a period of 20 days, the price of hotels here is falling off a cliff.

For example, in the current attic apartment, a room costs only $30 a day, and breakfast is included - Xu Feng has come to Cannes twice before, and he has lived here.

Then a five-star hotel is only two or three hundred dollars, and the price will only be a little higher if there are more people vacationing in the summer, but not by much

Go.

All of this is naturally paid for by Xuluo.

Originally, Beijing Film Studio wanted to send a few more people, but looking at the cost of plane tickets, accommodation, etc., they retreated directly.

People in this era are very face-saving, even if they pay money, they have to consider the impact.

There were seven people in the group, and it didn't matter if one room was empty.

Of course, everyone knows that there is actually a room that must be often empty.

After sleeping on the plane for a long time, everyone is not tired now, as long as you go to bed early at night and pour jet lag.

So Zhang Guorong suggested that after washing up later, he would go around for a walk, and immediately got everyone's support.

Xuluo finished taking a shower quickly, and came down to chat with Xu Feng about business.

Cannes in May is not hot, and the cool breeze blowing from the seaside is a treat to have some drinks, coffee and beer.

As early as around the Spring Festival, Xu Feng was entrusted by Xuluo to come to France with 1 million US dollars for activities.

The director of this session of Cannes is the famous Roman Polanski, who is the great director who is wanted by Miguo.

Regardless of the specific rights and wrongs, the achievements of this great director in movies are still very powerful.

Of course, artists are human beings.

Xu Feng was introduced by a friend, and after drinking coffee with him a few times, the two became familiar with each other.

The first time Xu Feng gave his wife a big diamond ring, he sent it back the next day, and he said a few words to Xu Feng with dissatisfaction.

A few days later, Xu Feng put down a famous painting for him, and he was also sent back the next day, but he did not reprimand Xu Feng again.

The third time Xu Feng visited his home, leaving a bearer treasury bond of 500,000 US dollars, there was no movement the next day, and on the third day, Polanski invited her to dinner at home.

Then Xu Feng left Cannes.

But in April this year, that is, last month, Xu Feng arrived in France with the second amount of funds given by Xuluo. ….

Polanski happily accepted the $1 million bearer treasury bond and invited Xu Feng to dinner again.

Then under his recommendation, Xu Feng visited the four judges of Whoopi Goldberg, Margaret Menneguez, Alan Parker, and Jean Paul in turn.

Among them, Whoopi Goldberg heard that the film she represented was adapted and invested by Xuluo, and was very interested, not only happily accepted the 200,000 US dollars bearer national treasury bonds, but also promised to recommend it vigorously to let "Farewell My Concubine" win the award.

Whoopi Goldberg is a native of Mi, and just starred in the word-of-mouth and box office hit "Ghost Love" last year, is the wizard in it, and won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.

It is precisely because she is a native of Mi that she knows how powerful Xuluo's script is.

She is looking forward to selling well this time, and it will be best if Xuluo can think of her next time when he is thinking about a movie role.

Marguerite, a Frenchman, naturally gave Polanski face and received $200,000 in bearer national bonds, but did not promise too much, just said that she would watch the movie seriously.

That's actually enough.

Xu Feng has heard from intermediaries that as long as people accept your money, they will definitely be more or less inclined to you.

It's just that Margaret is very reserved and embarrassed to say it.

Compared with the smoothness of the first two female judges, that Ying. The national judge, Alan Parker, was not so simple, he clearly rejected Xu Feng's three times of 200,000 US dollars of bearer national bonds, so Xu Feng could only give up.

There is also a French male judge, that is, Paul, who directed "Big Nose Love Saint" last year, who is happier than anyone else in collecting money, almost Xu Feng didn't bother to speak, he had already accepted it, and said that he would focus on "Farewell My Concubine".

……

Recalling these things he had said to Xuluo, Xu Feng sighed, "Luo Shao, you are right! Just put the jury first? Once the seat is done, then the next step will be much easier."

Xuluo smiled and said:

"Polanski is French, and there are many acquaintances in the judges, so naturally he will get twice the result with half the effort."

"I didn't know that the French were so fond of money." Xu Feng smiled bitterly, "I thought they just liked to pursue art! I was rejected by Polanski several times in a row, and I almost wanted to give up! That 500,000 was my last temptation, but I didn't expect it to succeed!"

After a pause, she said again: "I can see that Margaret looks down on me a little bit as a Chinese, but for Polanski's sake, she put forward 200,000 bearer treasury bonds, and she finally compromised."

"That Ying. The National Judge, he confiscated the money, he shouldn't go out and talk nonsense, right?" Xuluo asked her.

"Definitely not, it's the default rule in the circle." Xu Fengdao, "Which film festival and which award have no public relations? He doesn't take our money, it's very likely that he is taking money or favors from others. But even so, he won't shout everywhere if he fails, otherwise how will everyone get along in the future? Who would dare to touch him?"

Xuluo shook his head, "I can't imagine this kind of thing anywhere...... I thought the French were different."

"It's pretty much the same." Xu Feng said, "Although it costs a lot of money this time, as long as it has an effect, it is very good......"....

"If only you had experience."

Xuluo said leisurely, "Plus you won the Cannes Award, so at the end of this year, you can go to Miguo again to impact the Golden Globe Award and the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film."

He said it lightly, but Xu Feng listened to it like a thunderbolt explosion in his ears.

"What...... What?"

Xu Feng stammered, "You still want "Farewell My Concubine" to hit the Golden Globe Awards and the Oscars?!"

Xuluo said, "What? You don't have faith?"

"No, that's ...... Golden Globes, Oscars!"

"The Golden Globe is not as good as Cannes, what's the big deal?" Xuluo said: "It's Oscar, we need to have a good activity, and then we can use the money to smash it!" If we can do it, we can't lose anything, and it's just a few hundred million dollars."

"Oh! Alright!"

Xu Feng didn't know what to say, but Xuluo had such confidence, and it was he who provided the money, so she had no reason not to do it.

After all, "Farewell My Concubine" is also her hard work, she is also a producer, if she gets a huge glory, she is not only happy in her heart, but also with her own light.

In addition to Xuluo, in addition to director Kaige, isn't she the third?

With this qualification in the future, who doesn't look down on themselves?

Xuluo looked at her gains and losses, of course, he wouldn't tell her that "Farewell My Concubine" had the strength to win awards, and the "original" won the Palme d'Or and the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language.

The key is the Oscars.

If the Oscars can also win the award, it will be a joy and a joy.

Even if it's just a nomination, it's an honor.
