Chapter 76: French Buyers

The Savannah Film Festival currently does not have an award unit, but is more about film screenings and artistic exchanges. Film masters and actors from all over the world will meet face-to-face with students from the Academy of Arts during the festival.

The "Zombie Dancer" crew led by Benjamin certainly does not have such qualifications. Although a graduate of the Savannah School of Art, Benjamin has yet to become a well-known alumnus.

In the open space between the two theaters on campus, a large number of promotional booths were erected, and Martin and Catherine, who were the heroes and heroines of the film, dressed up as the characters in the film, distributed promotional materials to people who came and went.

Martin's vampire costume and Catherine's image of a huntress in a leather coat and a sword attracted many people to come and enter the booth to learn about the film.

"At 7 p.m., 'Zombie Danigo' will be screened at the Festival Theater." In the center of the billboard, there is a striking slogan.

Martin, the leading actor, is very active, and every time he distributes a piece of material, he says to people: "7 p.m., Festival Theatre, welcome." The actor worked hard, and Catherine, the heroine, was embarrassed to be lazy, and she didn't stop talking.

Occasionally, when there were few people, Martin brought two bottles of unopened mineral water and handed one to Catherine. Catherine took advantage of the time to drink water and whispered: "No matter how much we do, the salary will not increase." Martin replied with a smile: "We are the heroes and heroines, the film sells well, and no one can steal our limelight." Someone was attracted by the large poster, and Martin put down the mineral water, greeted him, and handed over the leaflet.

The man picked up the leaflet and read it very carefully. Martin realized that he was not purely curious, and said, "Sir, the film will be shown at the Festival Theater at 7 p.m., and you can come and find out if it's convenient for you." The man pointed to the character on the coloring page and asked, "Are you the male lead?" Starring as a vampire? ”

"Yes, I'm the male lead." The other party spoke English with an accent, and Martin sounded very similar to Michel Gonre, and asked tentatively, "The gentleman is French." The man nodded: "I'm Blanco from France." Martin invited Blanco to the booth and said, "You look like a film industry practitioner?" Blanco asked, "Because I'm at the film festival?" ”

"Your temperament is very similar to that of a French friend of mine." Film practitioners in the same country may be friends or enemies, and Martin said more vaguely: "He is a film artist, and he just came to Jozhou to film some time ago, so I am particularly impressed by him. Blanco laughed: "Michelle you are talking about?

Martin was quick to hear it and said, "Yes, director Michel Gonrey, I have enjoyed French cuisine in Atlanta with him, I have eaten the special food of Joshua, he is not only a film artist, but also has a very high standard of French food identification." Blanco followed Martin into the booth.

Dave, Benjamin and others saw Martin communicating enthusiastically, and they didn't go over for the time being. For Martin, they are very reassured.

Replaced by Catherine, she took over the reception work earlier. Kelly Gray came to the booth with her assistant Ella in a professional attire, and quietly approached to listen to Martin and the two of them.

"When Michelle left, he invited me to Paris." Martin's eyes are full of yearning: "I've always wanted to experience the atmosphere of the capital of art and romance up close, but unfortunately after a few months, I never had the opportunity. Blanco was polite: "There will definitely be a chance, maybe one day you will go to the Cannes Film Festival." He thought for a moment, then pulled out his business card and handed it to Martin: "Seven o'clock in the evening, Festival Theater, right?" Martin took the business card and quickly glanced at it, and it turned out to be the business manager of Europa Films.

"Yes, seven o'clock in the evening." He smiled and said, "Please wait. Martin took an official invitation and handed it to Blanco with both hands: "If you can come, the crew is very honored." Blanco took the invitation and shook Martin's hand before leaving.

Walking out of the exhibition area not far away, looking for a secluded place, he took out his mobile phone, dialed Michelle's, said hello and said: "I'm in Savannah, I just met an interesting person, saying it's your friend, an actor, Martin Davis of Atlanta. Michel Gonray over there said: "It's really a friend, a very nice person, good acting, very yearning for France." "ЪBlanco received a lot of invitations today, and after ending the call with Michelle Gonrey, he decided to go and see the film "Zombie Dana" in the evening after just a little thought.

Inside the exhibition area, Kelly came over and asked, "Important people?" Martin gave her the business card: "The buyer of Europa Films, listen to what he means, he is a fellow countryman and friend with Michel Gonre." Kelly immediately thought, "You befriended Michelle Gonrey, and you used it?" Martin said, "It should work, I think he should be there for the evening screening," and Kelly turned to Ella and said, "Arrange a VIP seat." Ella answered.

Kelly said to Martin: "One more buyer, one more hope to sell." Martin quietly shook Kelly's hand, and his voice was filled with unconcealed concern: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you're doing a great job." Kelly turned over her hand and pinched his fingers: "You have a lot of ideas, give me a good idea." Martin spread his hands helplessly: "The next step is to fight hard power, my bad idea will only delay and mess things up." "Although I have been studying the film sales and marketing in the United States for a while, Martin thinks that it is better to only understand a little bit and not talk about the specific business.

In the afternoon, Sophia and Vincent arrived from Atlanta to attend the screening. Kelly Gray just greeted Sophia and Vincent politely and didn't make much contact.

Along with them were all the members of the Bison House Club. Bruce said to Martin: "The boss is closing the door today, let's watch the movie together." Hart leaned over: "Lao Bu, this movie has nothing to do with you, I asked you to go up and show your face, but you didn't listen." Bruce said, "I'm a hard worker." Hart understood what he meant, and asked Martin instead, "Daddy Martin, have you seen the demo?" How's I doing? Martin said: "Died a terrible death, my brother was blown up by Catherine. At five o'clock, Sophia boldly invited all the crew members to go to the nearby luxury buffet restaurant for dinner.

The dinner was very generous, and Martin had a taste of it. The screening crew was going to take the stage, and he rented a dress, which fit very well.

It is also compulsory for actors to control their diet in advance when attending important occasions.
