Chapter 272: Winning the Prize

On the evening of May 28, the closing ceremony of the 59th Cannes International Film Festival began.

On the red carpet of the closing ceremony, Jiang Changsheng walked with Yu Feihong, and Fan Bingbing appeared with Liu Xinyou.

When walking on the red carpet, Jiang Changsheng felt that Cannes was finally over, and I wanted to go home from work early, and other stars couldn't wait to stay on the red carpet for a few more seconds.

Jiang Changsheng was the opposite, he led Yu Feihong and walked very casually, and the staff helped Jiang Changsheng clear the scene, wanting him to stop in the middle of the red carpet for a while.

Jiang Changsheng was not nostalgic.

He only paused for a moment on the red carpet, said hello to the fans, and led Yu Feihong up the steps and towards the Festival Palace.

Entering the award hall, Jiang Changsheng saw a man wearing sunglasses, chatting with an Italian beauty, and beside him, Zhang Ziyi was standing.

Seeing Jiang Changsheng appear, Zhang Ziyi twisted Xiao Man's waist and walked over.

She pouted and pretended to be coquettish: "Changsheng, I did my best this time!" How are you going to repay me? ”

No matter what he thought in his heart, Zhang Ziyi did help at this Cannes Film Festival, so Jiang Changsheng said with a smile: "Thank you Ziyi, you are a hot international actress now, and you don't seem to need my repayment." ”

Jiang Changsheng didn't have much moisture when he said this, Zhang Ziyi is indeed the most brilliant time in his career.

She starred with Gong Li in the Hollywood production "Memoirs of a Geisha" last year, becoming the first Chinese movie star to play the heroine of a Hollywood A-level blockbuster.

At the Oscars at the beginning of this year, Geisha's memoirs won three awards: Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, and Best Costume Design.

At this time, he also served as a jury member of the Cannes Film Festival, and his status and momentum can be seen.

It was also in the past few years that Zhang Ziyi's development focus has been in Hollywood, and since then he has won the nickname of an international chapter.

It's a pity that although Zhang Ziyi tried her best to gain a foothold in Hollywood, the result was more and more miserable, and after the beach gate in 2009, her reputation plummeted, which can be said to be a bit of a stinky street.

Later, he relied on Sa Beining to save a lot of popularity.

Hearing Jiang Changsheng's words, Zhang Ziyi continued to be coquettish, her posture was very low, and she was all kinds of flattering to Jiang Changsheng.

I have to say that the big flowers in this period can put down their bodies one by one, and the sugar daddy will definitely not hesitate.

Jiang Changsheng chatted with Zhang Ziyi for a few words, then came to the King of Sunglasses and said hello to him.

The greetings on both sides were very polite, Jiang Changsheng still admired Wang Jiawei very much, he is one of the few big directors who can win awards in the world without blackmailing China.

Jiang Changsheng said hello to Monica Bellucci beside Wang Jiawei again, and then found his seat and sat down.

Jiang Changsheng is Fan Bingbing on his left, and Yu Feihong is on his right.

At 7:30 p.m., the awards party officially began.

The first award was for the best CamΓ©ra d'Or, which went to the Romanian film Budapest, and the second for the best screenplay.

Jiang Changsheng was chatting with Fan Bingbing when he heard the award presenters on the stage shouting out their names.

The 59th Cannes International Film Festival, Best Screenplay, and Jiang Changsheng.

This is the first time that a Chinese person has won the best screenplay in Cannes, Fan Bingbing was very excited, and she kissed Jiang Changsheng on the face.

The camera just swept over, and this scene appeared on the big screen, and there was a burst of good-natured laughter at the scene.

Jiang Changsheng was not embarrassed, he also stretched his face in front of Yu Feihong and Liu Xinyou respectively, and the two daughters also kissed him separately.

The three women kissed, and Fan Bingbing's behavior was not abrupt.

Jiang Changsheng stood up and hugged them separately before walking to the stage without hurrying.

He gave an acceptance speech in English.

"I saw that Director Wang Jiawei was wearing sunglasses all the time, and I thought his eyes were not very good, but I didn't expect his eyes to be very good! I was awarded an award for Best Screenplay. ”

Wang Jia didn't hear that she was being ridiculed, and immediately laughed, and she also remembered a burst of laughter at the scene.

Although the award presentation is intense, the film festival is a kind of entertainment in the final analysis, and it is better to be happy.

Jiang Changsheng's speech was very brief: "The script is the foundation of a film, thank you to the organizing committee for giving me this award."

I also hope that this Best Screenplay Award can bring good luck to Chinese films.

Thank you! ”

After saying that, he took the trophy and went off the field.

Several awards were presented one after another, including the Best Short Film, the FIPRESCI Award, etc.

It is worth mentioning that Wang Chao, assistant director of war and love, won the best film in the "Un Certain Regard" unit.

Compared with Jiang Changsheng's calmness, Wang Chao was much more excited, he thanked many people on stage and said a lot of heartfelt feelings.

The most surprising was the Best Actress award, which was awarded to six actresses in the movie "The Return".

This made the Cannes actress particularly worthless, and I wholesaled 6 at once!

That's not all, the Best Actor Award is the same routine, awarded to the 5 actors in "Glory Years".

In just one Cannes Film Festival, there were 5 actors, 6 actresses, Jiang Changsheng had to admire Wang Jiawei's brain.

I don't know what the outside world thinks, anyway, these 11 actors, Jiang Changsheng is very happy to see them.

didn't win the best actress, Fan Bingbing was just a little disappointed, but he was not very disappointed, after all, Jiang Changsheng had given her a preventive injection in advance, and the chance of being the best actress was very slim.

Fortunately, the main goal of Judi was achieved, and Yu Feihong won the Best Director Award!

When the award presenter shouted out the name of the awarder, Yu Feihong stood up directly with joy.

She turned around and hugged Jiang Changsheng tightly, and before she took the stage, her eyes were already red.

Yu Feihong's self-awareness is very clear, she knows that she doesn't have much outstanding directorial talent, she can become a director, and she has achieved achievements, thanks to Jiang Changsheng's help.

Winning the best director at Cannes at this moment is like a dream.

Jiang Changsheng patted Yu Feihong's back and said with a smile: "Okay, Brother Fei, you are the woman I want to call my brother, just an award, be calm."

If you don't go on stage, the trophy may fly away! ”

Only then did Yu Feihong calm down, regain his composure, and calmly walked onto the podium.

Her acceptance speech was very formulaic, thanking the crew, the company, and her family, and finally Jiang Changsheng.

With Yu Feihong winning the award, Jiang Changsheng was completely relieved, and everyone in the crew relaxed.

He has already won two awards: Best Screenplay and Best Director.

According to Cannes' penchant for sharing cakes, the next prize should have nothing to do with juxta.

Unexpectedly, during the announcement of the jury award, the name of the jury resounded again.

It was a bonus!

Although the Grand Jury Prize is not as good as the Palme d'Or, it is the second most important award at the Cannes Film Festival, and it is considered a silver award.

Zhang Yimou's movie "Alive" won this award.

All the members of the crew who came to Cannes stood up and cheered together.

This award is given to the whole movie, so all the members of the crew came to the stage to accept the award together.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said to Fan Bingbing: "I didn't expect to win the grand prize, Yang Mi and Chen Zhiming are estimated to regret it, especially Mimi." ”

Yang Mi couldn't come to Cannes because she was still filming Xianjian III, and Chen Zhiming had just joined the crew of "Lying on Salary and Tasting Courage", and he didn't ask for leave.

If they knew that they could win the grand prize of the jury, the two would have to come on leave.

After all, the opportunity to receive an award on the Cannes stage will not be available to many actors in their lifetime.

There were more than a dozen people in the crew, including Jiang Zhiqiang, and everyone appeared on the stage.

Under the guidance of Jiang Changsheng, each of the main creators said a few words briefly, which can be regarded as a sense of participation.

After the speeches, everyone took a group photo on the stage.

With the awarding of the Jury Prize, there is one last award left at this year's Cannes Film Festival, the highest prize palm, which was finally awarded to the Great British film Fengdaolang, whose director Ken Lodge is an old man who has participated in the Cannes Film Festival many times before, but has failed to win the grand prize.

Winning the Palme d'Or this time, this old man can be regarded as a dream of Cannes.

The awards ceremony ended, and the Cannes Film Festival also ended successfully, although the wind and rice waves won the Palme d'Or, but the most limelight film in the audience, it must be a tie.

won the Jury Prize, Best Director and Best Screenplay at the same time, which is the biggest winner of this Cannes.

After the closing ceremony, there will be one last dinner in Cannes, the Closing Dinner.

At the banquet, Jiang Changsheng once again thanked Wang Jiawei and Zhang Ziyi for their help, and the jury consisted of a total of 9 people, including two Chinese.

And Ti can win three awards, of course, it has something to do with this.

Wang Jiawei said very politely: "The judges were very surprised, they didn't expect Huaguo to make such an excellent gay-themed movie."

In fact, in the vote for the Palme d'Or, he received a good vote, but when discussing it, he took into account other factors and finally lost to the wind and rice waves. ”

Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said: "After all, this is Cannes, the territory of the Omi people, the Palme d'Or is not expected, there is a jury award, we are very happy!" ”

There are so many movies in China, and the Palme d'Or is a farewell concubine, this kind of thing needs to be in the right place and place, and it cannot be forced.

After the banquet, Jiang Changsheng had a great time all night.

He didn't stay in Cannes for a long time, and took the crew on the plane back to Yanjing the next morning.

When they were on the plane and the news of winning the award, it began to be widely reported in the country.

After all, when I won the award last night, it happened to be early in the morning in China, and everyone was resting.

It was only after daylight that the domestic masses saw the report and knew that Jiang Changsheng won the best screenplay in Cannes, Yu Feihong won the best director, and won the jury prize.

Because it will be released in domestic theaters on June 1, Tianya Entertainment has issued a lot of promotional releases.

Hou Liangliang's sailor army on the Tianya Forum was also launched, constantly hyping up this topic.

Under the boast of various drafts and water armies, "Juti is the best film in Cannes this year" has almost become a consensus in China.

The media blows at a different angle, and what blows the wind blows the rice waves to win the Palme d'Or just because zz is correct, and the quality is not as good as the tie at all.

Jutie's house book rating of 3.5 is the highest of any film in Cannes.

And Ti won three awards, which is very rare in Cannes, which likes to share the cake.

Anyway, it is all kinds of praise and praise, and the audience also loves to watch this, after all, it is a matter of winning glory for the country, and many viewers will feel proud and honored.

Jiang Changsheng and Fan Bingbing's popularity and prestige rose again, but the magnitude was not large, and it was Yu Feihong and Liu Xinyou who benefited the most.

People found that Xiao Li Feidao's amazing fairy has actually changed his career to become a director in recent years, and he has done a good job, directing several works.

This time, he won the Best Director at Cannes.

Yu Feihong's popularity skyrocketed because of this, and she gradually gained the title of a talented woman and became a benchmark figure for female directors in China.

Some of her past resumes were also dug up by netizens, and everyone found that Yu Feihong was a real goddess of literature and art, and gave her a label of "talented and capricious".

As for Liu Xinyou, it is simply a popularity increase.

Many people began to remember her name and appearance, and she had a certain fame because she played Guo Fu and the romantic full-house girl No. 2, but this time her popularity has reached a new level, and she has basically stabilized the popularity of second-tier actresses.

When it is released in China, and Cheng Long's baby plan is broadcast in the future, Liu Xinyou's popularity will also move steadily towards the first line.
