Chapter 475 European Cinema, French Rose

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!
Night, Cannes.

In May, the popularity here is boiling, the hotels in the city are brightly lit, all kinds of parties are staged, alcohol, plus size, beauties, music, here is a grand movie festival during the day, and it becomes a place of passion at night.

Under the bright moon, the palm trees are lush and sheltered from the shadows, speaking with a southern rural accent, the drunken alcoholic fell on the side of the road, kicking his legs indiscriminately.

Skimming the asphalt road, there are many moon-white luxury yachts moored at the pier in Napler Bay, and the noisy voice of tourists comes from a distance.

The sailors with bare backs and tanned skin were smoking cigarettes and stepping on the fence with their legs. From time to time, they would whistle to women passing by on the beach and take a sip of beer.

During the day, there are countless tourists sunbathing on the fine-sand beach that stretches for thousands of meters, but at night it becomes a different experience.

Because the number of passengers in the town is limited, the prices here are extremely high. Many tourists and film dealers will also choose Marseille, which is very close, for the cost-effectiveness.

Passing through the palm trees, the semi-open-air reception is very lively.

This reception is organized by the organizing committee of the Cannes Film Festival, and the purpose is also to give filmmakers from all over the world a chance to communicate with each other.

Today, Cannes is the largest trading market for films in the world.

Yesterday, Wu Xiaozu received a film from the Cannes Organizing Committee and asked him to attend the closing ceremony.This news also confirmed that "The Suspect" should have won an award. As for what award, it is not yet known.

This is also the unspoken rule of the three major film festivals.

The award-winning crew and filmmakers will greet each other in advance.Otherwise, everyone would be gone, and Cannes would be embarrassed.

Brother Chen Kai's joy fell from the sky...was also named by the organizing committee. . .Made Lao Chen worry about gains and losses.

"I talked to the French company MK2 about the distribution of "The Suspect". He hopes to buy out the copyright in France for 50 US dollars. He can also be responsible for the distribution of the film in Europe."

Jiang Ershao pointed to a white man not far away, "That guy is Malin Kamez. He has a close relationship with the Cannes Organizing Committee. In the past two years, he has bought several Cannes main competition works."

"We can discuss the specific price after the closing ceremony tomorrow."

Wu Xiaozu thought for a while and said, "Online distribution rights can be handed over to MK2, but offline videotape distribution cannot be handed over. Brother Zhen is already negotiating with Woodpecker Company, we need to keep enough bargaining chips."

In later generations, the new works of directors such as Hou Xiaochen and Jia Kechang were shortlisted for the main competition in Cannes, which is also related to the fact that their films have the same French distributor—that distributor is MK2.

MK2 is the largest purchaser and distributor of literary films in France and Europe.

Gao Meng Company also contacted Wu Xiaozu, but the conditions were too harsh.On the contrary, it is MK2, which is more in line with the requirements.

Wu Xiaozu is also happy to maintain a good relationship with Cannes.

As a well-known western film dealer in Southeast Asia, the Jiang family has a well-developed network of contacts in Europe.In just a few days, a number of manufacturers were contacted to discuss specific cooperation.

Last year, "Rainy Night Butcher" and "The Birth of a Prefix" did not perform well at the European box office, but they also attracted the attention of a small range of lovers of literary and artistic films, especially "The Birth of a Prefix", which was well received by many literary and artistic films in Europe. The pursuit of youth.

This year, "Double Heroes" was also released in Europe, and the box office results were also good.This time, Jiang Zhiqiang brought "Cell of Fear" and "Suspect", hoping to really open up distribution channels in France and even the European market.

Before that, only Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest had this strength.

"Brother is very popular~" He raised his eyes and chatted with several European filmmakers, still maintaining his demeanor, the gentle Zhang Guoying and Wu Xiaozu had bright smiles.

Regardless of whether "Suspect" won the award this time, he has gained a lot.

At least Zhang Guoyi has his own popularity in the European literary and film circles, which will definitely greatly improve his commercial value.

When Wu Xiaozu perfects the production and distribution channels, Zhang Guoyi will naturally bring him a steady stream of wealth.

...

"Hello, John Woo sir?!"

Slightly magnetic... What exactly is a magnetic sound? Everyone has different standards. Let's say it is the kind of voice actor who falls asleep after listening to it... But the beauty of the woman in front of me really beat the voice.

If my old Wang is the protector of the "soul singer" class, the sexy and pure big-breasted girl in front of me should be regarded as the deputy head-level-she, like Lao Wang, has also released an album. With her popularity , the sales volume is just as appalling, and it can be seen how soulful the singing is!
The top two buttons of the white shirt were undone, revealing the French lace underwear inside. The hand-held cups and unrestrained opening and closing design gave the chest a French romantic charm. The lower body was wearing white trousers and sandals.

The eyes are charming and pure, and when she smiles, Wu Xiaozu can hear countless scenes of her taking off her clothes.

Si Li, a French woodpecker-level actress; a big-breasted version of Papi Jiang, a French rose flower who always thinks she can't take off enough——Sophie Marceau!
Standing beside him was a gentle old handsome guy, smiling and nodding to Wu Xiaozu as a gesture.

"Hello, Mr. Wu, I'm Andrei Zuraski!" He stretched out his hand, looking very polite.

Wu Xiaozu smiled and responded quickly.

This handsome old man is the 26-year-old Polish director Papi Jiang, who took away the French rose and let all French men oppose him.

The other party's reputation is very loud in the European film circle!

The status is equivalent to...well, think about it...It is almost equivalent to Poland Zhang Yuan, Jia Kechang and the like! o(╯□╰)o.

It is also more and more famous, and the controversy is also great.

He was nominated in Cannes two years ago, and he is also struggling on the road to becoming an artist.

"Director Andre, you're welcome. You can call me John Wu, John or Wu."

Wu Xiaozu smiled at the French rose again, "Miss Sophie, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Director Wu, I watched your "The Suspect" ("Suspect"), I like it very much! I am your fan."

Sophie Marceau smiled straightforwardly and elegantly, "It's a great honor to invite you to the banquet this time!"

(⊙o⊙)...Fangfang, you stole the lines!Can I say I'm a fan of your body?

Sophie Marceau at this stage is the beginning of the peak of appearance.

In fact, although Sophie Marceau has always been called the goddess of elegance, but... in fact, she is the same as Wang Zuzhen, and her education is not high. It is estimated that it is not easy to buy a doctor at this time...

"'The Suspect' is really an excellent work."

Andre smiled and complimented, and explained to Wu Xiaozu, "I heard Mr. Jacob say that Director Wu will also come to this banquet salon. I am very looking forward to it. I hope Director Wu will not blame me and Marceau for interrupting us abruptly."

"where……"

Wu Xiaozu smiled, gently squeezed Sophie Marceau's hand, and said calmly and decently, "I also like the two co-produced "Brave Love". It is indeed very brave to borrow money to buy out the contract with Gaumont Company!"

"I don't like being a prop at the mercy of the Champs-Elysées."

Sophie Marceau flicked her hair, smiling sweetly, but her tone was very proud, "I don't want to be the kind of star and lady they think."

"Of course not, you are Sophie Marceau."

Wu Xiaozu looked directly at Sophie Marceau with a smile, the other party was stunned, his beautiful eyes looked up and down Wu Xiaozu, his smile was full of charm.

"Yes, I am Sophie Marceau!"

"The unique Marceau." Wu Xiaozu smiled and nodded.

Andrei Zuraski didn't pay much attention to Wu Xiaozu's words, and he was very happy with Wu Xiaozu's evaluation. "Brave Love" is his work after all.Smiling, he hugged the enhanced version of papi sauce and kissed it.

Sophie Marceau doesn't care about public occasions either.

Wu Xiaozu didn't care either, do you understand the character of French women?

This goddess is not a simple believer in men and women.With this Polish old man, Sophie Marceau has completed the leap from traffic star to actor, and her popularity has greatly increased!
It is about to embark on the road of being unmanageable, and it will become the goal of all "blanket stars".

In later generations, eight out of ten blanket stars will regard "Sophie Long Legs" and "Monica Peach Butt" as their idols.

Others have counted or not Wu Xiaozu does not know, but Sophie Marceau should be the actress with the most ostentatious appearances on the red carpet of major international film festivals, and she can be called a strange woman who is addicted to ostentation...

Every time I can hit the page, you think it's a bad luck?

Ha ha!

"I've watched Suspect twice and I absolutely love your portrayal of love in this movie."

Sophie Marceau said with a smile, "Which actor is called Leslie Cheung! His interpretation of the male lead is really great!"

"I'll introduce you when I have a chance." Wu Xiaozu said, "If it's convenient, I'll invite the two of you to visit the beautiful Hong Kong City. It has charms different from France and from the West."

"Oh, the mysterious oriental culture." Andre shrugged with a smile.

"I like Asian culture very much."

Sophie Marceau readily accepted Wu Xiaozu's invitation, "If you say that, I have the opportunity to really travel there. See people and things that are different."

"No problem. When you get there, I will be a full-time guide for you to ensure that you can see different customs and customs during the day and night!" Wu Xiaozu warmly invited.

Sophie Marceau's beautiful eyes flow.

It seems that she doesn't reject Wu Xiaozu's enthusiasm, and of course, Andre next to her is unexpectedly not very repulsive either.

Wu Xiaozu doesn't quite understand this kind of western thinking.

But since people don't care... Of course Director Wu has to show the sincerity of the Huaxia people.

While the Polish director went to the side, Wu Xiaozu smiled and handed a personal business card to Sophie Marceau.

"This is my personal contact, I am currently in the process of acquiring a production and distribution company in France. Hope we have the opportunity to work together."

"You still have a film company in France?" Sophie Marceau was surprised.

"Of course. I hope we can work together in the future." Wu Xiaozu was noncommittal.

The French rose suddenly smiled, smiling gracefully!
　While coaxing my son in my arms, I was typing... Are you all at work?
