My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 1437 Master of communication skills, emotional rescue volunteers

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket!Ask for a monthly pass!

On the coastal avenue in Cannes, many private cars are parked on both sides of the road, and there are various grills and cooking utensils beside it. There are groups of tourists carrying backpacks, and the temperature is comfortable and suitable around 22 ℃.

Standing at the fence, looking at the densely packed folding chairs and sun umbrellas on the beach below, many shirtless men and European and American women in sexy swimsuits and bikinis are playing on the beach.

Thirty or forty nautical miles away, you can see the white yacht floating on the blue sea from a distance.

Isabelle Adjani was lying on the deck, her waist slumped, her body curled up gracefully, and her hair was dragged behind, looking a little messy.

The whole person is like a mermaid who just got off the boat from the sea, and the remaining water droplets have turned into speckled diamond ornaments on her body.

"At the Cannes Film Festival, everyone fantasizes that they are judges. In a jury composed of thousands of judges, they plan their own awards and have their own opinions."

Adjani adjusted the white high-waisted one-piece swimsuit back to its proper position.

"But are you sure that the movie "Farewell, My Concubine" is really as good as you said?

You have to know that the chairman of the jury this time, Louis Malle, has an extraordinary status in the French film industry.

He was the backbone of the New Wave, and most importantly... he supported other young directors of the New Wave to make films.

There is a saying in France, "The pioneering works of the New Wave were all transformed by sugar." '

Because his family is one of the giants in the sugar industry..." Adjani turned over and sat up, holding the bath towel next to her and wiping off the dew left on her body by the rain smashed plantains.

Ding--

Wu Xiaozu pulled the Clinton Gate on the white cropped trousers, straightened the black polo shirt again, picked up two tall champagne glasses, and gave each other a glass.

"I never lie about art."

"Okay, wait for my news." In the end, Ajani was given sleep clothes by Director Wu's sincerity and decided to help.

The awards at the Cannes Film Festival are always 'noisy'...

Not to mention, Almodovar almost had a fight with chairman Gérard Depardieu in order to support compatriot Victor Ellis's "Dream of Light" in the last session. I thought it was a documentary, but Almodovar persuaded the other judges, and finally "Dream of Light" won the jury award.

Don't take Cannes its true fairness.

That's impossible.

This situation is not uncommon.

It's even possible that Oscar's public relations are more 'fair' in comparison...

"Want to go to the sea together to play around?" Adjani wrapped her tongue around the wall of the wine glass, swept the sea water with eager eyes, teasing Wu Xiaozu,

"Is it too dangerous in the sea?"

"Life jackets are prepared on the yacht." Adjani winked and twitched, "Swimming in the seaside of Cannes is not a common opportunity. Don't you think it's very exciting?"

Mad woman!
"I don't know if there are swimming trunks in my size? Otherwise, it would be too tight..."

"Why not try to get close to nature? Allez—"

Ajiani threw Wu Xiaozu a life jacket, put one on herself, and jumped into the water.

Fortunately, she is not crazy, and knows how to fasten the safety rope.

If you want something from others, you must be courteous to others.

Wu Xiaozu also changed his underwear, put on a life jacket and jumped down.

When he was going down, he was still thinking...he didn't know that Hailiwei was unhygienic...but it should be okay here.

I have to say that Wu Xiaozu put in a lot of energy for "Farewell My Concubine" and his brother Zhang Guoyi!
This is not a good friend.

Later, I also made an appointment with Monica, the flower of Italy... The latter met Italy's Claudia Cardina through Giuseppe Tonadore, and will help Wu Xiaozu clear the relationship.

Although the other party in the previous life did not vote for geigei Zhang Guoyi as the best actress as rumored, but if he can let him focus on acting, he will naturally have an advantage over Zhang Guoyi.

That's right, Wu Xiaozu thinks that Zhang Guoyi's performance on Cheng Dieyi is basically a personal super-level performance...Maybe not necessarily a perfect performance, but it is certain that this role is really played by him with flesh and blood, let the role Come alive.

This is a very high level in acting.

In terms of communication, Wu Xiaozu still has his own few boxes...uh...several sets!

After swimming all afternoon, he lost too much water, even Wu Xiaozu felt a little tired.

When the crazy woman went crazy, she really showed the energy of 'running a marathon'. When she finally got on the boat, she almost went to the hospital, but...still squeezed out every bit of Wu Xiaozu's potential.

I have to say, fortunately Director Wu is very talented and has excellent endurance.

otherwise……

Ready to run halfway and disarm it~~
and so--

In the evening, when Wu Xiaozu hosted the two crews of "Farewell My Concubine" and "Dream of Life" for dinner, the whole person revealed a sense of exhaustion... Yes, Hou Xiaochen's film was also selected for the main competition.

"Here, open your mouth to eat some oysters. Why do you look so tired?"

The plump and sexy 'International Arch' broke open the oysters and fed the juicy and plump oyster meat to Wu Xiaozu's mouth,
"Is it that obvious?"

Wu Xiaozu leaned on the chair, smiled and swallowed the oyster meat that the other party handed to his mouth, sighed, and said with emotion: "All kinds of things have to be dealt with at the film festival. The sales of several movies have to be communicated with M2, and then return With the public relations work of your movie, this afternoon swimming with 'Party A' is tiring enough..."

Hearing Wu Xiaozu's sincere expression of true feelings, Gong Li nodded approvingly.

When she arrived in the afternoon, she heard that Wu Xiaozu was busy working on the movie, even caring more about his own movie.

Then look at Chen Kai, who is full of red face pushing cups and changing glasses and only knows to brag, it belongs to...

"I heard that Director Kai is going through divorce procedures with Ms. Hong..." Gong Li remained calm.

"He is living with Ni Bin, the host of CCTV."

"Is it?"

Wu Xiaozu was not surprised that Brother Kai was empathetic, and after getting in touch with him, he could feel that Brother Kai was no longer the brother Kai who was older than younger.Of course, Zu Ge is still that honest elder.

It's just that he didn't expect that his marriage with Ms. Hong would last for two years.

Probably...Hands on Gong Li's plump thighs.

Could it be that A Mou didn't get divorced, so Brother Kai couldn't follow the gourd painting?So two years of emotional improvisation?

"During the filming of "Farewell My Concubine", Sister Ni also came to visit the set. She is very kind. It can be seen that she is really good to Director Kai." Gong Li's legs moved closer to Wu Xiaozu.

"It seems that Director Kai is really proud of his horseshoe disease." Wu Xiaozu narrowed his eyes and smiled.

It's only a matter of time before he floats up.

Just when Gong Li, who had a slim waist and hips and a good figure, was about to greet Wu Xiaozu, a middle-aged man with a paralyzed face was led by the drunk Kai Ge and the grinning Hou Xiaochen.

"Old Wu, let me introduce you to a fan of yours." Brother Chen Kai smelled of alcohol all over his body, exhaled and inhaled through his two big nostrils, and his excess nose hair was thick and bulging.

"!@#￥%...&—" The serious middle-aged man with a paralyzed face twitched his stiff cheeks when he saw Wu Xiaozu.

Uh……

Maybe he smiled at himself? ?
"Hello, Director Wu, we meet again." Takeshi Kitano emphasized in Japanese English with twitching cheeks.

"Do you know?"

I have to say, Brother Kai can indeed... even understand Japanese English.

"Mr. Kitano Takeshi and I have known each other since the trial screening of "Seven Sins" before." Wu Xiaozu smiled and shook hands with Kitano Takeshi and hugged.

"Are you coming to Cannes this time too?"

"My "Sonata" was selected for the main competition."

Takeshi Kitano twitched half of his face coldly, pulled Xie Mei away, and said in a very friendly tone: "My movie will be released the day after tomorrow. I hope Director Wu will enjoy it."

"Then I'm looking forward to director Takeshi Kitano's works." Xiaozu Wu reciprocated.

Because Wu Xiaozu's works in the world film world often have a strong personal style of violent aesthetics and black humor, and at the same time contain a strong sense of fate, so his film style has been rated as "Wu Effect" by European and American film critics in the past two years .

Coincidentally, although Takeshi Kitano's personal style has not been really determined, the strong aesthetic design of violence and black humorous scene arrangement are very similar to Wu Xiaozu's style.

Therefore, in the past two years in Dongying and Asian film circles, many people called him "Dongying Wu Xiaozu".

Even the overall violent style of "Sonata" has a strong sense of Wu Xiaozu's style.

Takeshi Kitano also admitted that he likes Wu Xiaozu's violent aesthetic style very much.

Of course, I didn't say tribute... But from the eyes of the big guys, it's almost inseparable~~~ The non-staff apprentice of Wumen, the kind of self-taught...

As for Kitano Takeshi’s reaction—it’s not disgusting, after all, he watched Wu Xiaozu’s movie, and he also felt that the other party might have inspired him...

"Old Wu, this time you may be hurt again." Hou Xiaochen took advantage of the opportunity when everyone was in contact, and went to Wu Xiaozu's side and said, "The box office and performance of "Dream of Life" may not be too ideal."

"Hehehe..." Hou Xiaochen was at a loss as Wu Xiaozu laughed.

"Don't worry, it doesn't mean that movies that sell money are good movies. There are always some themes and works that are really small, but we as filmmakers need to record them.

Lao Hou, don't be too burdened with thoughts.We haven't known each other for a day or two.You know my... I'm not a box office guy. "Wu Xiaozu comforted and comforted Hou to lose money.

In fact, although the box office results of Hou Xiaochen's works are mediocre, and although "City of Sadness" is surprisingly high in the box office in Wanwan, overall, the box office results of literary and artistic films are indeed not too ideal.

Not just him.

Wu Xiaozu's own literary or personal style works will not be too popular.

The box office trend of "Big Brother" was an accident.

In his opinion, his "No Man's Land" may not be ideal at the box office.

But this does not mean that Hou lost money really lost money. With Wu Xiaozu's trip to the three major film festivals, the entire distribution system has become more and more perfect. In fact, these literary films often do not lose too much money, and even make money.

It's just that the cycle is a little longer.

Moreover, if the film wins an award, then if the investment is not too large, this type of film will often make a lot of money.

As for why Hou Xiaochen said this - he actually felt that the chances of "Dream of Life" winning the award might not be high.

"Thank you." Hou Xiaochen smiled with big lips on his dark face.

"By the way, is there any sign of the next play?"

"I'm going to adapt the real life of the character Jiang Biyu into a movie, using the format of a play within a play." Hou Xiaochen said truthfully, "I think it will be very interesting."

"Although it's a play within a play, I still recommend you to go to the Mainland for a visit. Also, I'll recommend you a good actor."

Wu Xiaozu was not surprised by his thoughts. In his previous life, Hou Xiaochen filmed "Good Boys and Good Girls".

Works starring Yi Nengjin.

"It can't be Miss Gong, right?" Hou Xiaochen couldn't help frowning as he looked at the meritorious person who was snuggling up next to Wu Xiaozu.

"Don't refuse, I know you think her image may be different, but I think that sometimes a good actor can improve the texture of the whole movie. Don't be bound by Gong Li's previous image, she is a 'plastic' ' Very strong and good actors."

Wu Xiaozu knew the limitations of these Wanwan directors.

I don't like to use mainland actors.

This is a disease that needs to be cured.

Wu Xiaozu's words also aroused Gong Li's competitive spirit, "Director Hou, although I haven't read the script, since Director Wu recommended me, I'll recommend myself.

Director Hou, I don't need an imperial appointment, you just need to give me a fair chance to compete.As for whether to choose me in the end... it's up to you to decide.You see, is this okay? "

Gong Li was also a little angry.

But as an actor, she believes that strength will speak.

At the same time, she also understood what Wu Xiaozu meant.

Wu Xiaozu mentioned before that at her level, the most important thing is to be able to cooperate with different outstanding creators, so as to increase her upper limit.

You can't be framed by a frame and then shape yourself.

She didn't have this kind of thought in her mind.

Although "Red Sorghum", "Ju Dou", "Raise the Red Lantern", and "Farewell My Concubine" have different roles, they are still in the comfort zone in the final analysis.

Wu Xiaozu's recommendation this time obviously also hopes that she can take that step.

"……All right."

Hou Xiaochen hesitated for a while, but after thinking about it, he finally agreed.

After all, he wanted to give Wu Xiaozu face, thinking in his heart, the big deal is to postpone it on the grounds that his image does not match.

And Wu Xiaozu believes that Gong Huang will not lose to any actress in the same stage competition.

Her shaping Wu Xiaozu understands too well!

He has the right to speak!

That's really a good actor who can play all kinds of tricks.

She can give you whatever you want, and she is a pure experientialist——

Dare to try anything.

Isabelle Adjani is a member of the Experience School.

"Sorry, I'll take a call."

Seeing the bodyguard coming over with the phone, Wu Xiaozu pleaded guilty and went to the side to answer the phone.

A familiar voice came from the receiver, slightly startling Wu Xiaozu.

Emotions themselves are not only responsible for communication, but also need emotional assistance?
