Brother Xiao Ming, Sun Li, and Zhang Yi were all very nervous about this trip to Cannes.

Li Shengyao was actually nervous, but he didn't have Dapeng, and Zhang Yi was exposed.

Even if Li Dadao is nervous and thinking about things, he can force himself to sleep.

From Yanjing to Paris, Li Shengyao didn't wake up, and slept all the way, sleeping for nine hours, and slept very well.

Then they flew from Paris to Cannes, and after getting off the plane, a group of people checked into the hotel, and Brother Xiao Ming didn't rest well on the plane, and went to sleep when they arrived at the hotel.

And Lee Shengyao is in good spirits, but the festival officially started at 7 o'clock in the evening, and now it is only 8 o'clock in the morning, and they still have almost ten hours to adjust.

At this time, there were no film screenings at the festival, and there was no place to watch movies.

Although Cannes is beautiful, there are a lot of paparazzi at this time, and it is not appropriate to go out for a stroll.

At this moment, Li Shengyao received a call from Zhu Bingbing.

"Do you want to walk the red carpet together?"

Li Shengyao shook his head speechlessly, "No need, I'm not interested." ”

"Okay, so be it."

The Cannes Film Festival officially starts at 7 p.m., and the vast majority of regular filmmakers who come to the festival walk the red carpet around 6 p.m.

For example, they start working in the morning.

The red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival has become a business, and it can be walked before the opening ceremony, during the festival, and before the closing ceremony.

The typical price is 2.10,000 euros.

If you feel that walking the red carpet is too monotonous to show your pomp, you can also spend 2,000 euros, in which case you will get a photographer.

If you are willing to donate 24,000 euros, you can also get an invitation to the Cannes Film Festival Charity Dinner, or an invitation to the opening dinner of the Festival.

Ji Bingbing is going to be glamorous again this year, and she will definitely walk the red carpet.

Li Shengyao hung up the phone, inexplicably a little irritable.

Many celebrities around the world are like this, not only mainland stars, but Li Shengyao still feels uncomfortable.

He put down his phone, then closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Because of the Bingbing incident, he was a little more sleepy.

When Li Shengyao woke up, it was already noon, he had lunch with the rest of the crew, and then sat together to chat, and soon it was time to walk the red carpet.

The organizers of Cannes have a special car to pick them up, so Li Shengyao, Xiao Mingge, Zhang Yi, Sun Li, Dapeng, and Bi Gan got in the car together and went to the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival.

At this time, most of the people who walked the red carpet were professional filmmakers, and there were relatively few blanket stars.

The crew of "1937" has almost no celebrities here, few fans, and foreign photographers don't pay much attention to them.

Fortunately, there are many paparazzi in China, not only in the mainland, but also on Hong Kong Island, and the crooked paparazzi, they saw the crew of "1937" and shouted one after another, asking Li Shengyao to cooperate with them to take pictures.

With this group of friends from across the Taiwan Strait, the crew of "1937" is finally not so lonely.

They entered the venue smoothly and sat for about half an hour, waiting for all the filmmakers to arrive. Jacob talked a bit of nonsense about the development of global cinema, then announced the official opening of the festival, and then invited filmmakers to watch Woody Allen's "Midnight in Paris."

"Midnight in Paris" is the opening film, which is screened directly in the Hall of 1,000 people.

Li Shengyao naturally took Brother Xiao Ming and Sun Li and they over, and then the big guys watched "Midnight Paris" together.

What to say about this movie, it is very similar to Woody Allen's past movies.

The composition, picture, light and shadow are very beautiful, but the storyline is average and the meaning is not profound.

The movie is a young man from a beautiful country who travels back to Paris in the twenties of the last century and meets all kinds of people.

The vast majority of the actors in this film have lines from the British magnesium, and the French actor with the most roles is the current first lady Bruny, who has an eight-minute scene and is said to have been filmed for eight days.

It can be said that this is a Parisian movie imagined by beautiful Chinese people.

Whether it is the hero and heroine, or the second male or female second, in fact, there is no French temperament.

The audience can clearly feel that this is a group of beautiful Chinese people from modern times.

Overall, this is a beautiful Chinese work.

After the movie ended, the theater burst into sparse applause, and Woody Allen knew that he had messed up, so he went on stage to give a speech, chatted a few words, and left in a hurry.

Dapeng laughed, "I'm not mistaken, this kind of hit movie dies quickly." ”

After the movie ended, it was too late.

France is not as safe as at home, so a group of filmmakers dispersed and went back to their hotels.

The opening dinner will be held tomorrow evening.

Li Shengyao and Brother Xiao Ming returned to the hotel, and everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, they all gathered together, and then walked the red carpet to watch "Martial Arts" together.

Li Shengyao doesn't really support Chen Kexin, but since they are all Chinese-language movies, let's come and take a look.

Anyway, if they don't watch "Martial Arts", they will also watch other movies.

Chen Kexin has high expectations for martial arts, and he feels that this movie is a new type of action movie that blends action, suspense, and reasoning.

But the movie was screened at the Cannes Grand Theater, a small hall of 100 people, almost no foreigners, a group of paparazzi, filmmakers, artists, or fans from the mainland came to watch.

The first screening ended, and there were not so many Chinese in the second screening, and there were finally more moviegoers from other countries, but the overall number of viewers was still very small, and Li Shengyao estimated that more than 30 people watched.

Chen Kexin's face was much uglier.

Dapeng said in a low voice: "I think it's pretty good-looking, but it's hard to break through."

"Martial Arts" does have innovation in the subject matter, but that's all, it is almost impossible for martial arts films to win foreign awards like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Li Shengyao greeted Chen Kexin, and then left to watch other movies.

"1937" was screened in Cannes on its fifth day, and he could relax a little.

A group of them wandered around the Grand Theater in Cannes for a day, and only hurried back to the hotel in the evening, washed up and prepared for the opening dinner.

After getting into the car, Dapeng handed the mobile phone to Li Shengyao, "Director, you see this woman is too shameless." ”

Li Shengyao took Dapeng's mobile phone, and then saw the news of Bingbing's pressure.

Ji Bingbing wore a crane costume at the opening ceremony, and she walked the red carpet.

Then I walked the red carpet twice and changed into two sets of dresses from different brands.

In the evening of today, on the red carpet of the opening ceremony dinner, Zhu Bingbing walked twice again, and also changed two sets of dresses.

In other words, Bingbing walked the red carpet a total of five times.

It can't be an invitation from a dress brand, because the brand of the dress she changed is different.

It is also impossible to be an official invitation to Cannes, because the red carpet time she walked was different from that of serious filmmakers like Lee Shengyao and others.

Most likely it is a high-level VIP customer who spends money.

Li Shengyao frowned slightly, for the first time, he felt that Zhu Bingbing's behavior was very low, and it was really low.

"Leave her alone, don't talk about her."

Spending money on the red carpet is an open secret, and it's not interesting to say it and offend people.

What's more, this is the official Cannes channel to make money, there is no need to break out, otherwise it will offend the Cannes official.

Li Shengyao returned the phone to Dapeng, and he felt quite unlucky.

Hopefully it won't affect his luck.
