In Cannes this year, Chinese films were once again absent from the main competition, only "Fantasia" directed by Wang Dynasty was shortlisted for a kind of attention unit, and "Return" directed by Zhang Yimou was shortlisted for the non-competition screening unit.

But even if there are no competing works, Chinese filmmakers can be seen everywhere in Cannes.

Jia Zhangke is the judge of the main competition, needless to say, the crew of "Return", Wu Yusen took the crew of "Taiping Wheel" to Cannes for the overseas sales of the film, Jiang Wen took his wife Zhou Yun to promote the new film "One Step Away", Li Yuchun, as the spokesperson of L'Oreal, once again walked on the red carpet in Cannes, and Xue Xiaolu also came to the Cannes trading market with "Miss Bai".

Take a closer look at these Chinese crews who came to Cannes, each of them is not small, and it may be that Director Xue Xiaolu's international reputation is much worse than that of several other directors.

But it doesn't matter, Liu Yifei is hot!

Liu Yifei has a good reputation in the international film industry, and "Miss White" focuses on themes that will be of interest to both Chinese and foreign countries, such as domestic violence and child abuse, so naturally there is no shortage of buyers' attention.

Moreover, Xue Xiaolu is not like several other crews, she brought all the finished films of "Miss Bai", and also set up a theater, and will test two screenings in Cannes, in order to let buyers feel at ease.

Liu Yifei, as a producer and starring, is naturally very concerned about the situation of "Miss White" in Cannes.

On the sixth day of the opening of the film festival, that is, the day after Zhang Yimou left the crew of "Pieces of a Woman" and went to France, Xue Xiaolu held the first preview screening of "Miss White" in Cannes.

"Oh, I said you can sit down for a while?" It was already a little hot, and she finally rested for a few days, Liu Yifei said that she was going to the aquarium to watch the dolphin show, and Zhang Yuanjun came with her, but when she arrived at the aquarium, she couldn't sit still, walking back and forth, looking at her mobile phone more than 20 times a minute, "It's hard to come out to play, can't you be happy?" The dolphin show is about to begin. ”

"What time is it in Cannes?" Liu Yifei asked.

Zhang Yuanjun didn't give her time to count, pulled her to sit down, and said, "If you walk around like this, if you are recognized, you will be in the soup today." ”

Liu Yifei has just settled down, but her eyes have never taken off her mobile phone, and she has been communicating with Xue Xiaolu's assistant about the scene.

Zhang Yuanjun snatched her mobile phone, and Liu Yifei opened her mouth to scold: "You ......"

Zhang Yuanjun glared at her, and then she said, "I'll take a look." ”

"It's you who said it was you who played it, and you kept staring at your phone when you came out. I confiscated my phone to watch the show. Zhang Yuanjun handed over Liu Yifei's mobile phone to Xiao Zhao for safekeeping, ""Miss Bai" 90 minutes, plus the guests entering and post-screening exchanges, it won't end in two hours, you might as well watch our performance first." ”

"Okay." Liu Yifei couldn't help it, "You return the phone to me, I promise not to look at it." ”

Zhang Yuanjun couldn't manage his wife like a class teacher managing students, so he motioned to Xiao Zhao to return the phone to Liu Yifei.

She took her phone, put it in her bag, and didn't look at it anymore.

It's not that I haven't watched performances at the aquarium before, but Liu Yifei doesn't seem to have immunity to these things.

In Zhang Yuanjun's opinion, today's performance is no different from what they watched before, but Liu Yifei is extremely excited.

"You see it's so obedient."

"Oh - jump so high."

Liu Yifei especially likes to watch animal performances: "How about I also go to experience dolphin training?" It's definitely going to be fun. ”

"You want to have fun, find a time to make an appointment with the aquarium." Each aquarium has a visitor experience program.

At the end of the dolphin show, Liu Yifei remembered to take pictures: "Come on, come on." Liu Yifei pulled her husband over, "Let's make one together." ”

Then she reversed the phone, and Zhang Yuanjun smiled angrily: "How many times have I taught you, you can use the front camera for selfies." ”

"The camera in front of it doesn't have high pixels, so it's not good-looking." Liu Yifei has her own reasoning.

She only knew that the front camera was not very high, but she didn't know that the photos taken with the rear camera with her mobile phone like this were even more unsightly.

Zhang Yuanjun sat next to her and took a few beautiful photos, which she thought looked good.

After watching the dolphin show, the two left the aquarium with their assistants.

It wasn't until the two of them took their respective assistants and the four of them had dinner together that Liu Yifei received a call from Xue Xiaolu from Cannes. ”

"Bad one." Liu Yifei said into the phone.

Xue Xiaolu said: "The bad news is still the same old problem, the film critics feel that we are not calm enough to shoot, and we are suspected of provoking the audience's emotions." ”

Liu Yifei was not surprised: "What about the good news? ”

Xue Xiaolu's tone was full of joy: "The good news is that Europeans really like this kind of film that focuses on sharp social topics, even if there are a few flaws, as long as it is the same, they can accept it." After our test screening, many critics cried when they watched it. ”

This is indeed good news, Xue Xiaolu continued: "And the film critics have a high opinion of your performance, and the specific media reports will come out later, and I will send it to you when the time comes." ”

Liu Yifei asked: "How is the trading market?" ”

"It's okay, after the test screening, several filmmakers asked us to talk, and my afternoon appointment is full." Xue Xiaolu is most proud of this.

The two ended the call, and Zhang Yuanjun smiled: "Now you are satisfied." ”

Liu Yifei smiled and was indescribably happy. Her assistant Cindy laughed at her: "I like to listen to good words, and the shooting is average, but the heroine plays well." You like to hear this. ”

Liu Yifei's careful thinking was punctured, and she shook Cindy's arm: "Oh, don't say it!" ”

The four of them had a happy meal, and Boss Liu was happy and asked the two assistants to do the beauty. As for my husband, I also asked my husband to do a maintenance.

Male celebrities also do beauty!

came out of the beauty salon, Boss Zhang invited guests to watch a movie, and it was Zhang Yimou's "Return".

"Whatever you say, you have to make a show."

Liu Yifei is also very interested in this film, Chen Daoming + Gong Li, she wants to see what sparks these two can meet.

There is also the new girl Zhang Huiwen.

But Zhang Yuanjun persuaded her to give up her illusions about Zhang Huiwen: "In the past, Mou girls all played heroines, but Zhang Huiwen was selected to play the second female lead, or with Gong Li, she also had the title of 'Mou Girl', and few people would notice her." ”

"But at least I was taken into the industry by Zhang Yimou, and how far I can go in the future depends on my personal creation."

Zhang Huiwen should be the last Mou girl, since her, Zhang Yimou rarely uses newcomers as the heroine, and the name of 'Mou Girl' is gradually not working.

The little girl dancing in the back, like Zhang Huiwen, just hung a signboard of "Mou Girl".

Liu Yifei suddenly laughed and said, "Do you think I'm a girl?" ”

Zhang Yuanjun thought for a while and said, "An actress who has debuted for 12 years comes to be a girl? ”

Liu Yifei laughed: "I don't care, I played Zhang Yimou's heroine, why am I not a girl." ”

"Good, yes, yes. Let's go in now and see how the first Mou girl acted. "The movie is almost over.
