"'Love' was a huge hit, and two actors in their eighties contributed wonderful acting skills."

"'Parasite' was a sensation in Cannes, with nine out of five critics giving it a high score."

"Jacob: 'Parasite' is even more exciting than I thought, and Lee has made an incredible breakthrough compared to last year, and this film will shock the world."

"Parasite is the best film that reflects class contradictions after the millennium."

"In a Foreign Country" and "The Taste of Money" are highly anticipated, and Korean films are eager to break through."

"'Parasite' and 'Love' are much more focused than any other film, and the Cannes jury will make the final judgment."

"Lee Shengyao: I won't go anywhere else, stay in Cannes to watch movies during this time."

……

On a warm afternoon in late May, the sun is warm, the sea breeze is gentle, and the whole city is filled with flowers in cinemas across Cannes.

Mr. Lee put on a cap, put on a mask, and took his assistant to a movie theater near the hotel.

The screening of "Parasite" has ended, and the effect is better than he imagined, and it will definitely enter the final evaluation.

The festival continues, and there are still a few more films to be screened.

Liu Dehua and Liang Jiahui all took over some business in Europe, some went to Paris, some went to London, and some went to Barcelona.

Everyone will come back the day before the film festival awards party.

Li Shengyao actually had a lot of invitations, some official, some commercial, and some of the public welfare nature, all of which were rejected by him.

During his time in Cannes, he wanted to watch and enjoy the movies.

When he first crossed over, he once thought about whether he could improve his directorial strength and become a big bull who could promote the development of the film industry like the king of sunglasses.

However, after almost 12 years, Li Shengyao has clearly recognized the facts, in this industry, he is not a highly talented person.

His talent is estimated to be similar to that of Chen Gou, and he is a qualified commercial film director.

People know what they are.

Knowing this, Lee Shengyao has a lot less mental internal friction, and the next thing he has to do is to copy the movie, as for personal innovation......

Maybe it will take another ninety-nine times to accumulate enough talent.

It's like Regadas, many people say that his movies don't know what to do, and they are made for neurosis.

But I have to say that only he can shoot some pictures and artistic conceptions.

It's a real talent, and it's not like you can figure it out if you think about it.

Of course, even if he knows that his talent is not at the top level, Lee Shengyao still loves movies and still enjoys movies.

He doesn't watch movies now to improve himself, but more for personal enjoyment.

Cannes is the world's No. 1 film festival, and there are naturally many good films.

He has watched all the good movies shown in the past few days, and it is very refreshing every day.

Maybe there will be no movies to copy that day, Lee Shengyao will buy a small villa in Cannes, and come to see the film every year at the film festival.

At this time, he entered the theater with his assistant, and then sat down to watch a war movie called "Chills in the Fog Forest".

The lights went out in the theater, and the movie officially began, and Li Shengyao took off his hat and mask.

He has been more popular in Cannes lately, and in order to reduce the trouble, he has made some disguises, he is not used to wearing a hat, and he feels like he is wearing a tight hoop.

There is a lot of experience in wearing a mask, after all, I was exercised in my previous life.

But I still don't feel very comfortable, and I can't breathe well.

"Cold War in the Fog Forest" is an anti-war movie about World War II, about Da Mao's side.

The overall rhythm is very dragging, and the progress of the story is grinding and chirping.

And it should be an anti-war movie, but it didn't reflect it.

Li Shengyao watched the movie recommendation he saw on the official website of Cannes last night, and thought that this movie was okay, but he didn't expect it to be so bad.

This is the most ugly movie he has seen in recent days.

He was a little speechless, and turned his head to look at the assistant, who was already dozing off with his eyes closed.

His assistant doesn't like to watch literary movies very much, he just accompanies Li Shengyao to watch, last night in the hotel to watch a paid playing channel, watched it at three o'clock in the morning, and now he can't stand it.

Li Shengyao did not disturb the assistant to sleep.

He clasped his hands on his chest and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Just when he was about to mix it up like this, a burst of aroma hit, and a girl with long hair and a shawl came to Li Shengyao, "Senior Li, is it you?" ”

Li Shengyao sat on the edge of the aisle, and the girl would not get in the way of others.

She looked in her twenties, her face was gentle, a little bitter, she was wearing simple long sleeves with jeans, her smile was very sweet, and she had a good family temperament.

Li Shengyao felt that this person was somewhat familiar, but he didn't remember it for a short time.

He settled down, and secretly sighed in his heart.

It's still too handsome, even in such a dim place, it can't hide the light.

"Senior Li, I'm your fan, I've watched all your movies, and I've also watched "Parasite", it's great, my name is Zheng Youmei."

When Li Shengyao heard this, he finally remembered.

This woman is an actor on the peninsula, not very famous, but she acted in a movie that put the entire peninsula boys to shame - "Kim Ji-young born in 82".

It is said that hundreds of thousands of men on the peninsula complained that the film should be banned, but without success.

When Zheng Youmei acted in this movie, she was already in her thirties, and at this time she was much younger, and she had a gentleness that is rare for peninsula girls.

"Hello, you're beautiful."

When Zheng Youmei heard this, her joy was overflowing, "I am an actor and played a role in "In a Foreign Country". ”

Li Shengyao nodded, there are a lot of good movies in Cannes these days, but he didn't go to see "In a Foreign Country", but this movie has a good reputation and is introduced on the official website of Cannes.

"The movie is good, you have a great future."

When Zheng Youmei heard this, she expressed her gratitude again and again, and finally said, "Senior Li, can you sign for me?"

Since you ask for an autograph, you naturally want to take a group photo.

"Senior Li, can I post ins?"

"Of course."

It's just a photo with a small fan, and Li Shengyao doesn't care.

Zheng Youmei left happily.

About five minutes later, Zheng Youmei led a girl with long hair and slightly curly hair over, this girl's temperament is much more modern, wearing a dress that reaches to her thighs, and she has the temperament of a star in the Korean circle.

"Senior Li, I'm very sorry, my friend wants to know you, is that okay?"

Li Shengyao nodded.

The girl with a modern temperament immediately stepped forward, "Hello senior, my name is Kim Hyo-jin, I am also an actor, and I played a role in "The Taste of Money". ”

Lee Sung-yao had heard of Kim Hyo-jin's name, but he forgot what this person had played, and he should be even less famous than Jung You-mi.

Jung You-mi later won the Busan Film Festival with "Kim Ji-young Born in 82", and Kim Hyo-jin's words should not have such an honor.

is also a signed group photo, Li Shengyao generously met Kim Hyo-jin's request.

The two girls then left together, but Li Shengyao didn't take it to heart, and he then closed his eyes to recuperate.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Kim Hyo-jin took the lead and stuffed a note into Li Shengyao's hand, "Senior, I like your movie very much, please guide me to act." ”

Kim Hyo-jin then twisted and twisted, as if he had gone to the bathroom.

Just when Li Shengyao wanted to look at the phone on the note, Zheng Youmei walked over and also stuffed a note into Li Shengyao's hand, "Senior, please advise." ”

After the words fell, Zheng Youmei hurriedly returned to her seat.

Li Shengyao opened it and found that the words on both slips of paper were written in lipstick.

He smiled, then shredded the note, intending to throw it in the trash later.

There are more people who want to sleep with him.

He can't be satisfied with every one.

However, although Zheng Youmei has a long bitter feeling, she has a bit of a good family feeling, which makes people quite pitiful, if Cao Thief is alive, I am afraid that she will not refuse.

Soon after, when the movie ended, Lee left the theater with his assistant, and then bought two cups of coffee, intending to sit for a while and watch it.

There is one more film to watch this afternoon, the second film is called "Rust and Bone", from French director Jacques. Odia, this big guy has won the same good luck, he has won the best screenplay and best director several times before, and in Lee Shengyao's previous life, three years later, Jacques will win the Cannes Palme d'Or.

"Rust and Bone" is obviously more brilliant than "Cold War in the Fog Forest", Li Shengyao sat down and quickly watched it.

This movie tells the story of two low-level men and women, redeeming each other, having feelings for each other, and finally being together.

Although the plot is old-fashioned, it is very old-fashioned, and the plot setting is progressive.

Just when Li Shengyao was watching "Rust and Bone", a fragrance came, but Zheng Youmei came and sat next to Li Shengyao.

The theater is not full, and there are still many empty seats.

The audience can sit as they please.

Li Shengyao seemed to smile, "What about your friend?" ”

"She's not very comfortable, so I'll go back first."

Zheng Youmei turned her head, her eyes full of admiration, "Senior Li, I like your movies very much, all your movies, the actors are very good, you really know how to train the actors, can you tell me about the performance?"

Lee Shengyao actually doesn't like training actors very much, he has always felt that all aspects should be suitable first, and then talk about training.

is like Huang Bo, obviously not rich and handsome, no matter how good his acting skills are, playing Gao Fushuai will make people play.

There are also various ancient puppet dramas in the past few years, the first beautiful man in the Three Realms, the first beauty in the fairy world, and the handsome guys and beauties who must stand up to comparison, this kind of character design can't be made up for by acting.

The appearance of the actor's temperament is more important than the director's training.

However, Zheng Youmei held her hands in front of her chest, her eyes were hidden with stars, and her look of reverence still made people think very much.

The vast majority of men are good teachers.

Secretary Yuliang couldn't help himself, and Li Shengyao planned to make an exception.

He then told Zheng Youmei some things about the performance, although they were all big goods, Zheng Youmei still nodded again and again, with a look of admiration.

No wonder you can get the actress in the future, this acting is okay.

After the movie, Li Shengyao left with Zheng Youmei, and under the envious gaze of the assistant, he went back to the hotel to continue the class.

Omit......

probably used a box of small umbrellas, and Li Shengyao quit the war.

"Oba, you must remember me in the future."

Zheng Youmei looked satisfied, and then wrapped her hands around Li Shengyao's waist and pasted them.

"Definitely, definitely good."

"Kim Ji-young Born in 82" is adapted from a book, in Lee Shengyao's previous life, this book was only published in 2017, and it should not have been written yet.

This book is very popular in the peninsula, and it is said that every girl on the peninsula has a copy.

The female boxers gain strength from it and have to fight Han Nan to the end.

Lee doesn't really care about the little money he makes from this book, but it seems to be a lot of fun to make Peninsula Women's Boxing soar.

He thought for a moment and said, "There will definitely be a chance in the future." ”

He didn't have time to write it himself, so when he returned to China, he wrote an outline, and then arranged for a screenwriter to write it and translate it into Korean.

Of course, this is all in the future, and the most important thing now is to wait for the film festival awards ceremony and think about other things when the results are out.
