"This." Faced with Marco Muller's invitation to the president of the jury, Wu Yuan hesitated.

However, the good work ethic still stopped him from changing jobs.

Shaking his head, Wu Yuan said regretfully: "I'm really sorry, Mr. President." ”

"Since I have already promised Cannes, it is not good to change the plan at the moment, unless there is any force majeure."

However, as a half-Venice descendant, it is not good to really refuse ruthlessly, Wu Yuan said again: "Next time, next time I have the opportunity, I will come to Venice to be a judge again." ”

"Don't do it next time." Who knows, Marco Müller directly hit the snake with a stick, and said with a smile: "It's the year after tomorrow." ”

"If you go to Cannes next year, then come to Venice the next year, 2011 is the last year of my presidency of the festival, come and help me."

Yes, Wu Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Okay, no problem." ”

The chairman of the film festival personally blocked the door, and the words were all on this one, and it wouldn't work if he didn't agree.

Since the conversation between the two was in Chinese, the members of the Huaxia Legion who followed back to the hotel together could understand the conversation of the two, regardless of whether they understood the foreign language or not.

Seeing that Marco Muller strongly invited Wu Yuan to be the chairman of the jury, and even booked it two years in advance, he was sent to this position with his eyes, Guan Hu and other directors, it was called an envy.

I don't know how many people have the phrase "a great director should be like this" in their hearts.

In their domestic film awards, it is very difficult to even compete in the selection, let alone become the chairman of the jury.

However, Wu Yuan can easily be the chairman of the jury in the three major European ones, and even the chairman of the film festival took the initiative to invite him.

The gap between them can't even make people jealous, only full of envy and worship remain.

"Well, then I won't disturb your rest, and I wish you a pleasant week in Venice." Marco Müller said goodbye to the Chinese Army with satisfaction.

As the president of the film festival, Marco Muller is the busiest during the opening of the film festival every year, and he can find time to pick up the Huaxia Army in person, which is enough to save face.

After bidding farewell to Marco Muller, the Huaxia Legion gathered at the Lido Hotel was disbanded on the spot.

The organizing committee of the film festival arranged a whole floor of rooms for them, which was enough to accommodate everyone.

There is no need to avoid anything, Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei directly lived in the same room, ready to rest and rest, but jet lag, tomorrow is good to have a fun in Venice.

This time he led the team to Venice, Wu Yuan didn't have much work on him, and the company's copyright sales department was naturally responsible for selling films, as well as the two directors Zhang Guorong and Chen Kaige.

Whether it is a promotion meeting or a screening, there is no need for Wu Yuan to come forward.

Except for the award for the best actor at the closing ceremony, he is free at all times.

Wu Yuan plans to relax and relax with Liu Yifei in Venice for two days, and after the opening of the film festival, he will treat himself as an audience to participate in the film festival and enjoy a week's movie feast.

After a brief wash, Wu Yuan leaned on the head of the bed, picked up the brochure of this year's Venice Film Festival on the bedside table, and looked at it with a sigh.

"Among the films shortlisted in the main competition this year, there are 4 Italian films, 6 American films, 3 French films, 2 Hong Kong Island films, and as many as 12 films from 12 countries."

"The films shortlisted for this year's Venice Film Festival involve more countries and genres than in previous years."

"It seems that President Marco Muller is indeed in a hurry at a time when Cannes is becoming more and more international."

Compared with the Academy Awards, where foreign films can only compete for the best foreign language film, the Venice International Film Festival is undoubtedly more open and worthy of the word "international" in its title.

And it is worth mentioning that the 6 American films shortlisted this time are almost not Hollywood productions, and they are all independent films.

Hollywood's six major and middle-level new lines, Lionsgate and other companies, none of the films were shortlisted.

This is rare.

Even if it is true that the three major European ones have always looked down on the so-called "Hollywood production", the best global commercialization and the backing of the hegemonic country will not be rejected by the three major European ones.

In previous years, there will still be one or two films produced by Hollywood major companies shortlisted for the main competition unit.

Like this year, there is no one, at least for seven or eight years.

Maybe it's because of the scolding war between the European film industry and Hollywood triggered by Wu Baige last time?

Wu Yuan secretly guessed in his heart.

"Senior brother, what are you looking at?" At this time, Liu Yifei, who had just finished taking a bath, walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, and curiously stretched out his head to look at the brochure in Wu Yuan's hand.

"The brochure of Venice this year."

"Don't look at it yet, come on, brother, help me blow my hair."

Wu Yuan smiled, put down the brochure in his hand, picked up the hotel's hair dryer, and blew Liu Yifei's hair.

"Your women's hair is really troublesome, it takes more than ten minutes to dry it after washing, and it's not easy to blow it alone."

"Then I'm going to cut my hair short?" Liu Yifei rolled her eyes, and said eagerly: "Cut one that is about the same length as you, like a tomboy!" ”

"Let me tell you, when I was a child, I was like a tomboy, and then I started to learn dance, and then I became quiet."

"It's not bad to relive it now."

"Don't" Wu Yuan had an indescribable expression, and his brows were furrowed to kill flies, "If you fairy sister cut her head flat, I don't know how many fans will have to break their hearts." ”

"What's wrong with flat heads, I still want to shave my head, but it's convenient, I don't need to take care of my hair." Liu Yifei came up energetically and was full of interest.

Wu Yuan imagined in his heart how she would cut her head flat or shaved it, and felt goosebumps all over her body.

What a strange interest this is.

"It's still black and straight," he whispered.

"Hey." Liu Yifei glanced at Wu Yuan and said helplessly: "I'm just thinking about it, I signed a shampoo and cosmetics endorsement, and the endorsement contract stipulates that I am not allowed to change my style casually." ”

"Unless you are filming, you must have long black hair every day, and you are not even allowed to dye your hair."

Wu Yuan suddenly realized: "No wonder you have been with long black hair for the past two years, at most permed, I have never seen you dye your hair, I thought you just don't like to dye your hair." ”

is different from Liu Yifei's singer idol debut in Wu Yuan's dream, which made all kinds of spicy eye shapes, in this time and space, although Liu Yifei also did curly hair and net stockings when he released the album, but soon returned to black and straight.

Wu Yuan thought that after she followed her, her aesthetic level improved.

It turned out that she was promoted because of "Your Name" in this life, and she had a bunch of high-end endorsement contracts on her body, so she couldn't change her appearance casually.

This situation is still very common, generally more advanced endorsement contracts, not only stipulate that the spokesperson can not change the style at will, and even some strict, but also stipulate that the spokesperson must create a "personality" in accordance with the style they give.

At least during the endorsement period, the artist is more of a person-type advertising and cannot have his own fashion preferences.

Of course, this refers to ordinary life, that is, what it looks like to be exposed to the public.

When filming, according to the requirements of the script, you can change the shape at will.

"Hey, if you really want to try shaving your head, it's not impossible." Wu Yuan's hand blowing Liu Yifei's hair paused and said meaningfully.
