After the awards party, according to the usual practice, it was still a celebration banquet.

This year's Cannes Film Festival was no exception, and soon the directors, actors, singers, and producers collectively moved to a nearby hotel chain, and then everyone began to socialize in the entertainment industry.

Li Lianhua is naturally no stranger to such a scene.

Whether in China or in Hollywood, she has participated in a large number of drinking parties.

She has high emotional intelligence, can talk, and participates in such a banquet like a fish in water.

Now that she has won the Cannes Film Festival, she is in a better mood and more confident, and she noticed several producers she had met in Hollywood and immediately had an idea.

When she was in Hollywood before, she went to talk to someone, but the other party ignored her.

For her, the so-called mainland first-line actress, she doesn't care at all.

These people are not laymen, although they are in a beautiful country, they know very well that there is no actress in the Chinese film industry who can support the box office.

Whether it is Zhang Ziyi or Zhu Bingbing, they can't make the movie make more money.

Not to mention Li Lianhua.

In this case, Li Lianhua is not taken seriously.

So now that she is the queen of the Cannes Film Festival, is it different?

"Good evening, Mr. Wilson."

"Oh, good evening."

Wilson is a big fat man in his forties, he stands up straight, and he can't see himself.

At this time, he held the wine glass, smiled on the front, and looked at Li Shengyao on the other side.

Li Lianhua saw it in her eyes, a little envious, and then said: "Mr. Wilson, your demeanor is still the same tonight, there is almost no difference from when I saw you before, it must be that your recent development is very good, I am very happy to join your team, do you Paramount have a new film project recently?" Is there an Asian character? ”

Hearing this, Wilson looked at Li Lianhua with a pair of small eyes, stopped at her waist for a moment, and then immediately shook his head, "None of the recent movies have a role suitable for you, you better ask other people, you don't need to waste time with me." ”

Speaking so directly on the other side, Li Lianhua could only smile awkwardly, and was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait."

When Li Lianhua heard this, she thought that there was a project on the other side, and immediately stopped happily.

"Well, how is your relationship with Lee, can you let him come to Paramount as a film director?

If you have this ability, we can fight for a role for you. ”

If you can decide Li Shengyao's choice, you will directly lock on Li Shengyao, and you have been acting in his movies, where do you need to come and shoot your ass.

Li Lianhua was speechless in her heart, "No, Director Li is a very assertive person, and he won't follow my advice." ”

"Okay, there you go."

The best actress at the Cannes Film Festival has no row at this time.

This is the reality of the entertainment industry.

Unless they have box office appeal, even if their acting skills are superb, they will still not be valued.

After all, no matter how good your acting skills are, you can't make money for nothing.

Li Lianhua left miserably, many strange actors and directors smiled and greeted her, and some people asked her to take photos and sign autographs, but no producer took the initiative to talk to her about the project.

Li Lianhua was very helpless in her heart.

She soon notices a Disney producer named Mark. Jerrell, almost sixty years old, in his early sixties, with gray hair, a red face, a small round face, and a little old man, has made several animated films.

When Li Lianhua was in Hollywood before, she drank with Mark a few times.

She remembered that this guy often looked at her with lust, and she tried it a few times, but this guy just wanted to, and didn't have the idea of providing resources.

Li Lianhua didn't bother to pay attention to this person.

The little old man who is almost sixty will have a lot of fun dying in bed.

Seeing Mark at this time, she immediately took the initiative to lean over.

"Hi Mark, nice to meet you."

Mark turned around and glanced at Li Lianhua, "Oh, it's nice to meet you, you're so beautiful tonight." ”

The little old man spoke without sincerity, and before he could finish his words, he turned his gaze away.

Li Lianhua was a little surprised, two years ago, the little old man was obviously very greedy for her.

She followed the little old man's gaze, and then saw several actresses with first-class figures, and knew that she had become yesterday's yellow flower.

The little old man couldn't look at it.

However, she still squeezed out a smile and looked very kind, "Mark, I heard that Disney is preparing "Mulan", is it true?" ”

Mulan is a Chinese heroine and the only Chinese princess in Disney.

Disney has confirmed that they will make a live-action version of "Mulan", and they claim to be casting it worldwide.

This made the actresses of the entire Chinese-speaking circle moved.

A big coffee like Zhang Ziyi, I don't know how much news I bought, and I announced that I became the heroine of "Mulan".

However, everyone in the industry knows that if Zhang Ziyi is really the heroine of "Mulan", then there is news everywhere in the beautiful country, how can there only be news in China.

The reason is very simple, she bought the news in China.

In a beautiful country, she didn't dare to buy it, for fear of offending people.

This shows Zhang Ziyi's longing.

Everyone believes that this "Mulan" will definitely make a lot of money, and as a Hollywood princess movie, it will inevitably be released worldwide, and if you are lucky, it is really possible to become popular all over the world.

This is the reason why Mark's attitude is perfunctory, and Li Lianhua is still reluctant to leave.

The temptation of "Mulan" is too great.

Mark heard Li Lianhua's words and laughed, "You can save it, it is impossible to choose you, you are too old." ”

Li Lianhua is in her forties, and if she is chosen, then she is the oldest princess of Disney.

At this time, Disney didn't have so many "right" and didn't want to choose the catfish princess, the black charcoal princess.

When Li Lianhua heard this, she couldn't help but be disappointed.

Although she won the queen of the Cannes Film Festival, it seems to be useless, and those resources that she couldn't touch before, she still can't access.

She has always been ambitious, and the fact that this is too shocking.

Li Lianhua turned around and was about to leave.

At this time, Mark suddenly threw out a sentence, "If you can persuade Li to direct "Mulan", I will be the master and you will play the second female lead." ”

Li Shengyao won three consecutive Best Director Awards, needless to say that his reputation in China has reached its peak, and at this time he will direct "Mulan", which must be the most popular, and maybe there will be a box office of 2 billion in the mainland market.

It's Li Shengyao again, in the eyes of others, her biggest role is to know Li Shengyao.

It wasn't known for sure before, but now it's certain.

Li Lianhua smiled bitterly, isn't this embarrassing?

But for the sake of her future, she still wants to fight for it.

So Li Lianhua raised her glass and touched Mark, "Wait for my good news." ”

After the words fell, Li Lianhua held the wine glass and walked towards Li Shengyao.

Since Chen Hao followed Li Shengyao, she had an excuse to follow Chen Hao.

At this time, Li Shengyao was chatting with Warner's senior management, he had a good relationship with Warner, and the two talked a lot.

"Lee, you've been away from Hollywood for several years, you see Quentin looking forward to your return, I think you should really think about it, your stage can be in Hollywood, you can let the world know that even if it's a highly competitive Hollywood, you're still the top director, whether it's winning awards or box office, it's hard for you."

When Li Lianhua heard this, she was surprised, but she didn't expect that not only Paramount, Disney, and Warner also wanted Li Shengyao to return to Hollywood.

Obviously, everyone thinks that if Lee Shengyao returns to commercial films, he can make money.

Talented people are so susceptible to preferential treatment.

Li Lianhua and Chen Hao talked in a low voice, actually envious of Li Shengyao.

At this moment, Quentin came over, and he was naturally either looking for Chen Hao Li Lianhua or Li Shengyao.

"Lee, I'm really looking forward to you coming back to Hollywood to make movies, now Hollywood movies are all superheroes, I hope you can give Hollywood some different ideas."

Although Quentin is not an academic director, but a wild man, he still can't watch superhero movies.

He thinks that superhero movies are too routine, and there are no artistic ideas, and the whole article is flat and straightforward, which is not interesting.

Quentin chatted a few words, then left.

Li Lianhua was secretly envious in her heart, and at this time, someone came to find Li Shengyao, or Jacob personally led someone, "Li, this is the producer of Raymond Pictures, his name is Kaisatt." ”

Kaisart immediately enthusiastically introduced himself, and then said that Raymond Pictures and Lee Shengyao have long had a cooperative relationship, and Li Shengyao has sold the rights to the African continent to Raymond Pictures for several previous films.

The two sides have cooperated smoothly and developed together.

Kesart recalled the past, and then said: "Lee, we at Raymond Pictures have been preparing to shoot blockbusters, are you interested, we can guarantee that although it is not a Hollywood blockbuster, it can be distributed worldwide, and it will definitely not bury your new movie, and it can make European audiences know you again."

This guy can speak, he speaks English, and Li Lianhua can listen to it.

She looked at Li Shengyao, and there was more envy in her eyes.

Not only the big Hollywood companies, but also the big European companies want to cooperate with Lee Shengyao.

On the other hand, after she won the award, she is still a transparent person, and no one takes the initiative to ask her to act in a movie.

Just when Li Lianhua sighed in her heart, a man in his thirties with East Asian looks walked over, "Hello, I am the producer of Peninsula Samsung Pictures, my name is Park Zhiduo, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”

All people on the peninsula wear makeup, regardless of gender, young and old.

In this case, looking at their photos, I think they look good.

At this time, the producer of Samsung Pictures looks a little handsome and Oba.

Li Lianhua is in a slightly better mood, after all, who doesn't like to communicate with handsome guys under the age?

"We're working on a new movie, are you interested?"

Although it's not Hollywood, someone has decided to invite her.

Li Lianhua felt that the world was a little more colorful, she was in a better mood, her tone of voice in English was soft, and she stopped, "Yes, what kind of movie?" ”

"A disaster film with a very grand setting, which not only shows the cruelty and ruthlessness of the disaster, but also strongly reflects the social phenomenon of corruption."

This answer is decent.

It's true that the movies of the peninsula are like this, the subject matter is very large, and I like the Black Expedition Mansion very much.

Li Lianhua was in a better mood when she heard this, she felt that this producer was more sincere.

"It's just that the cost of film production is relatively high, our head office will not allocate so much money to us, and we are still accepting large-scale investment, are you interested?

If you have a relationship, you can arrange for the movie to be released in the mainland, and we can also give you a few percentage points of share. ”

It turned out that they were looking for investment, and they also had to find relationships to introduce them to the mainland.

Li Lianhua has a black line, she feels that this guy is very hateful, he is in his thirties, and he is still pretending to be a young and warm man.

"I still have something to do, we'll talk about it later."

As soon as the words fell, Li Lianhua quickened her pace and caught up with Chen Hao again.

At this time, Lee Shengyao had been replaced by a producer from Sony Pictures who invited Lee to make a movie.

The producer is a Japanese man in his forties.

He is short, skinny, with very small feet, and is estimated to wear 37 shoes.

"Li, we don't ask you to go to the beautiful country to shoot a movie, we actually expect you to make a movie in the mainland, Li, are you interested in shooting a historical blockbuster with the theme of the Three Kingdoms, we Sony are willing to bear all the investment, how about it?"

Li Lianhua thought that "Red Cliff 12" was a big hit in the island country, and it is said that it has created many box office records for Chinese films.

I have to admit that the Japanese really like the Three Kingdoms theme.

Li Weiguo did not agree, but only nodded, indicating that he could consider it.

Seeing this, Li Lianhua knew that Li Shengyao must have received a lot of invitations tonight.

If she had Kun Kun, she would really envy Kun Kun purple.

She couldn't help asking: "Director, are the six Hollywood majors looking for you?"

"Well, I've found them all, like Paramount, they want me to work with Tom."

Lee paused, then said, "Both Disney and Warner want me to make superhero movies.

Sony's words want me to make a blockbuster film with the theme of the Three Kingdoms.

Universal and Twentieth Century Fox are all with me, and as long as I like it, no matter what the subject matter, they are willing to invest. ”

Li Lianhua is really going to jump, such a resource is too good.

"Are you going to Hollywood this time?"

"I'm not sure yet, I'm thinking about it."

After the words fell, several Hollywood stars came over to sign a group photo with Lee Shengyao, and then invited Lee Shengyao to Hollywood to make films, and threatened that as long as Lee Shengyao was willing, they would definitely make time to join.

After the Hollywood star, star directors from some other countries stepped forward one after another to take photos and sign autographs with Lee Shengyao.

To put it bluntly, in the entire celebration banquet hall, Li Shengyao is the most dazzling person.

Won the Palme d'Or to Turkish director Nuri. Bigceylon, and the Italian female director Alice, who won the Grand Jury Prize. Lowach didn't get as much attention as Lee Shengyao.

Li Lianhua watched Li Shengyao rush forward and hug wherever he went, and there were a group of people waiting in line to communicate with Li Shengyao, which was really envied by his real name.

This is the supreme pursuit of filmmakers.

She feels that Li Shengyao has even become a cultural phenomenon, and with his fans, he will have greater appeal in the future.
