Chapter 526: "Sister Peach" and Venice
On August 1, 2011, the premiere of "Young You".
Although this movie only has Liu Yifei, a first-line superstar, carrying the box office, today's premiere scene still has a large number of reporters and media.
Without him, there are too many celebrities to cheer.
Liu Yifei = Wu Yuan, this truth has long been recognized in the circle.
The relationship between the two is simply stable and terrifying.
When the relationship was first announced, many insiders were still discussing it in private, thinking that Wu Yuan was just playing, but now few people will think so.
Everyone has already acquiesced that Liu Yifei can represent Wu Yuan.
The era of light and shadow has also been building momentum for "Young You".
Many actors in the circle who can't reach Wu Yuan on weekdays took the initiative to come to the premiere of "Young You", hoping to meet Wu Yuan here and catch up with Wu Yuan.
If you really can't see Wu Yuan, it's not bad to be able to get on the line with Liu Yifei.
The power of the wind in your ears is not small at all.
It also gave Liu Yifei a headache, because of Wu Yuan's relationship, it is difficult for her to have any normal communication in the circle now.
Many people deliberately found her, whether they wanted to be friends with her or flattery, the ultimate goal was to have an intersection with Wu Yuan through her.
This leads to Liu Yifei almost not daring to make friends with insiders now, even if they seem to be really just to make friends with her, not for Wu Yuan, Liu Yifei can't believe it.
Maybe this is the price of becoming Wu Yuan's other half.
Fortunately, Liu Yifei herself is hot on the outside and cold on the inside, and most of her good girlfriends are college classmates or acquaintances who have just started in the industry.
Standing at the end of the red carpet outside the studio with Li Yang, Zhang Yishan and other crew creators, greeting one guest after another with a smile, listening to the hypocritical flattery in their mouths, although their faces were full of smiles and greetings, but in her heart, Liu Yifei had only one thought, when will the premiere officially start?
At the same time, in the infield of the studio, Wu Yuan, who arrived first, was also talking with a handsome old guy.
"Brother Hua, I haven't seen you for a long time."
"Hahahaha, Director Wu, didn't you say that you would have the opportunity to cooperate, I waited for several years, and I didn't wait for your invitation to cooperate."
"Ah, this"
"Haha, I know, I've watched your movies for the past two years, and there's really no role for me."
Liu Dehua waved his hand again and again without care, and said with a smile: "Actually, even if you invite me, my schedule in the past two years is a little too tight, and I may not be able to cooperate." ”
Liu Dehua has been really productive in the past two years.
Because of the comprehensive explosion of the mainland film industry, Lau Dehua, a Hong Kong superstar with both virtue and art, has also been the hottest actor in the circle in the past two years.
"Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire", "Future Police", "I Know a Woman's Heart", "New Shaolin Temple", ......
He released four films in two years, and that's not counting the works he made but didn't release.
is that only the first of the four movies has a good reputation, and the reputation of the last three is not very good, and the nickname of the king of bad movies of Brother Hua has begun to circulate.
It is also because of this incident that Liu Dehua came so actively to participate in the premiere of "Young You" today.
Some requests still have to be told to Wu Yuan in person to be sincere.
"That, Director Wu." Liu Dehua entered the topic a little embarrassed.
"Next month, director Xu Yuhua's new film "Sister Peach" will premiere at the Venice Film Festival, and it has also been shortlisted for the main competition unit."
"Director Wu, you have a lot of contacts in Venice, and you're an old friend in Venice, I don't know."
There are some things that Liu Dehua really can't say too directly.
But his expression says it all.
Liu Dehua really needs recognition from international awards.
In the circle of top actors on Hong Kong Island, he should be regarded as the most average in the outside world.
Liang Chaowei, Zhang Guorong and others have filmed many fewer film works than him, but they have won more awards than him, and the gold content is also greater than him.
Although Liu Dehua also won the Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor of the Golden Statue, he is definitely the top batch in terms of honor.
But I have to admit that whether it is inside or outside the circle, the audience or fans, don't seem to think how good his acting skills are.
Everyone's impression of Andy Lau is usually as follows: the acting skills are not good or bad, enough to watch but not amazing, it seems that no matter who he plays, it is Andy Lau himself.
In "Infernal Affairs", which Liu Dehua is most proud of, what everyone remembers more is Liang Chaowei's eye drama, and the highlight moments in the battle of the rooftop are all on Liang Chaowei.
This made Liu Dehua very distressed.
He should be regarded as one of the most model workers among the superstars on Hong Kong Island, and he is also the most dedicated one.
But his acting skills have never been recognized, and he has never left a classic role that is hard to forget.
This time he cooperated with Xu Yuhua, and Liu Dehua went to the award.
Xu Yuhua did it, and a "Sister Peach" was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival.
But the embarrassing thing is that the first protagonist of "Sister Peach" is the heroine Sister Peach, and the male protagonist Roger played by Liu Dehua can only be regarded as the second protagonist.
It is obviously very difficult for him to win the best actor.
But you have to work hard in everything, and if you work hard, you still have hope, and if you don't work hard, you really have no hope at all.
The relationship between Wu Yuan and the Venice Film Festival does not need to be repeated.
And this year, Wu Yuan is the president of the jury of the Venice Film Festival!
After several years of back and forth, Wu Yuan finally agreed to Venice's invitation and became the chairman of the jury of the main competition unit of the 2011 Venice International Film Festival.
Coincidentally, the chairman of the jury of the Horizon unit, who is also a director from Huaxia, is Wu Yuan's old senior Jia Section Chief!
The presidents of the jury of the two important sections of this year's Venice Film Festival are all Chinese.
There is no doubt that this is good news for all Chinese films participating in this year's Venice Film Festival.
This year is also the year when Chinese films shine in Venice again.
Hong Kong Island's "Death Gold" and "Sister Peach", and Taiwan's "Saidek Bale" were all shortlisted for the main competition unit.
Mainland director Cai Shangjun's new work "The Sea of People" was also shortlisted for the main competition unit as a surprise film at the last moment.
The horizon unit also has the debut film "The Trace of the Widows" directed by Xu Haofeng in the mainland and was successfully shortlisted.
The three crews of "Death Gold", "Saidek Bale" and "The Sea of People" have nothing to do with Wu Yuan, and no one knows him, so naturally they can't find him as the chairman of the jury.
It was Liu Dehua who was obsessed with his actor that he boldly came to the door.
"This." Wu Yuan had an indescribable expression on his face, he really couldn't take it.
"Brother Hua, you know, the chairman of the jury doesn't have much power."
"I can only assure you that this year's judging will be absolutely fair and fair, and I can't make any more guarantees." (End of chapter)
