Chapter 398: The Venice International Film Festival opens

The matter of "Young You" was temporarily decided between Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei's words.

However, this is only rhetoric.

The specific filming time, schedule arrangement, and actor plan have not yet been settled.

Although Wu Yuan's "Interstellar" only needs to be busy in the late stage, it will definitely not be available this year.

He was too busy in the second half of the year.

After participating in the Venice Film Festival and Paris Fashion Week, Wu Yuan will go to the United States to see the post-production of "Interstellar", followed by a month of post-production, and then return to China on October 17 to participate in the Golden Rooster Awards.

After participating in the Golden Rooster, he still has to continue to return to the United States for post-production of "Interstellar", and strive to complete it before the end of the year.

As for next year, that is, in 2010, in Wu Yuan's original plan, he planned to take a break for at least half a year.

In the past two years, Wu Yuan has been working on three movies, and Wu Yuan is already a little tired and needs a little time to rest and recharge.

Perhaps in the second half of 2010, he can plan to start filming this "Young You" and continue to maintain his shooting speed of one Chinese film in two years.

Wu Yuan put his arm around Liu Yifei's shoulders, and the two of them leaned on the head of the bed.

"After a while, I will write the script, you can first take it and figure it out, try to experience it in life, and see if you can find the feeling of shooting."

"For now, let's finish the work at hand."

"Sleep, I'll take a stroll around Lido tomorrow, I haven't seen this beautiful island yet."

The next day, Wu Yuan, Liu Yifei and the Huaxia Army were separated, and the two of them started their Venice vacation alone.

didn't go too far, the two just played around the Lido Island, where the Venice International Film Festival was held, and had a good feel for the Mediterranean style of Venice.

In the past few years, he was busy with work, and Wu Yuan really didn't stop to enjoy the beauty of the world.

This year, he took a lot of time to play with Liu Yifei in Canada, in Venice, and then in Paris.

Not to mention, sometimes proper relaxation will indeed soothe a lot of negative emotions.

Moments of joy are always short-lived, though.

After two days of playing, the Venice Film Festival also ushered in the opening ceremony.

Although Wu Yuan did not participate in the works this year, as the officially invited award presenter, he also had to walk the red carpet.

Originally, he also wanted to take Liu Yifei and let her attend as a female companion.

Although Venice is not like Cannes, even if domestic actresses have no works, they can't wait to walk the Cannes red carpet once and get a chance to be exposed.

The so-called blanket star atmosphere came from Fan Xiaopang and others who had no works and still rubbed the Cannes red carpet.

But Venice, as one of the three largest in Europe, is obviously also a popular destination for mainland actresses, and if you have the opportunity, you must rub the red carpet.

However, Liu Yifei is not an ordinary person, she doesn't want to be a blanket star, and she will never participate in any film festivals or award parties without works.

Wu Yuan naturally appreciated her idea, and did not force it, and stepped on the red carpet alone.

For the European reporters at the scene, Wu Yuan was also an old acquaintance, and the flashes flashed non-stop along the way, leaving behind a long list of red carpet photos, which were spread all over Europe five minutes later.

[Star-studded, international director Daniel Wu appeared on the red carpet in Venice! ] 】

Because this year's three major European Hollywood Dock is a bit stiff, and this year's film produced by Hollywood is not shortlisted for the main competition unit, so there are almost no big stars and directors in Hollywood to attend this year's Venice International Film Festival.

Wu Yuan, the winner of the Venice Golden Lion and the great director of Hollywood's commercial films, can be regarded as the most influential and famous guest attending the Venice Film Festival this year.

For him, even if no work is shortlisted for this year's Venice, he came to participate in this year's film festival, not on the red carpet, but in turn to build momentum for this year's Venice International Film Festival, adding influence, and is half a ballast stone.

This is the power of top directors.

Even a top international film festival like Venice needs a top director like Wu Yuan to set off.

Of course, without the Golden Lion Award awarded by Venice, Wu Yuan would not have become a real top director, and it can only be said that they have achieved each other.

Therefore, Wu Yuan gave the Venice Film Festival a lot of face, not only stayed on the red carpet for enough time for the on-site media to take pictures, but also praised the films shortlisted for this year's Venice Film Festival.

"It's great to see so many excellent films in the main competition this year."

"I believe that Venice will get better and better every year, and there will be more outstanding filmmakers who will be seen by audiences around the world through this platform."

"Of course, I also hope that there will be more excellent Chinese films that will be favored by Venice and compete with top filmmakers from all over the world."

"I can't wait to give the award to Best Actor!"

The year after that, he will be the president of the Venice jury, and he must say more good things about Venice!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, some on-site media also enthusiastically interviewed Wu Yuan.

"Daniel, do you have a plan for a new literary film?"

"Daniel, you've always only made foreign-language commercial films, have you ever thought about making a foreign-language literary film?"

"That's an interesting question." Wu Yuan smiled and pointed to the reporter who asked the question, and responded generously: "There will be opportunities in the future." ”

"In my opinion, there is no difference between foreign language films and Chinese films, I have never made foreign language literary films before, but I just don't have the right opportunity."

"I will definitely have the opportunity to shoot in the future."

"As for my new film plan, as you know, a good literary film needs inspiration, but unfortunately I don't have any inspiration right now, so I may focus on the commercial film market in the next two years."

"My new film 'Interstellar' has completed filming and entered the intensive post-production stage, which is expected to be released in the first half of next year."

"This is a film that is both commercial and artistic, and it will be released on a large scale around the world at that time, so I hope you can help me promote it."

Seizing this opportunity, Wu Yuan did not forget to promote his new film in Venice, an occasion where the global film media attracted attention.

Although the European film industry and the North American film industry have contradictions with each other, this only involves the upper class, and the middle and lower class ordinary audiences still have something to watch, and it has been a long time since Hollywood conquered the European film market.

The reporters at the scene were also very face-saving, and they nodded their heads and said that they would pay attention to Wu Yuan's new movie and write propaganda articles for him.

"Thank you!" Wu Yuan was like a spring breeze, and finally waved to the reporters on both sides of the red carpet with a bright smile: "I won't delay the red carpet time, the next guest should be here." ”

"See you at the closing ceremony!"
