I became a scandal heroine overnight

Chapter 917 Attention
The price of being a popular star is to lose a lot of self - this, Zhou Yun has fully experienced in the past few years, but this is also the price she must bear when she chooses to take this path Yes, she already knew.

It's just that Zhou Yun didn't expect that his participation in the Cannes Film Festival this time would turn into a situation where he would be recognized by fans no matter where he went.Originally, Zhou Yun felt that if he came to participate in the film festival overseas, the probability of being recognized would be much smaller than that in China.

No matter how publicized and publicized in the media, Zhou Yun knew that his so-called international influence did not really reach the level of a first-line Hollywood star.

At present, her fame is mainly concentrated in the circle of film lovers.

Perhaps because of some world-class news in the past six months, such as what happened in Korea, such as being accused by Song Zhi, such as the news of her marriage with Song Chi at the Berlin Film Festival, but these news are not enough to be remembered for a long time. live her stuff.

Therefore, Zhou Yun took it for granted that when she was not wearing fancy clothes, or appearing on camera or on the red carpet, she actually had relative freedom in the city of Cannes.At least, she thought she still had the freedom to travel.However, walking on the street, instead of being recognized by one or two people occasionally, after walking a few steps, someone will take out a mobile phone to take pictures of her, or boldly run up to her with an excited face and ask if she is Zhou Yun said that he liked her very much, and hoped to take a photo with her.

The frequency of these incidents made Zhou Yun deeply realize that the situation was really different.

This also made her really realize why she didn't have any work shortlisted for Cannes this time, and the Cannes official invited her to participate in such a serious way, bringing a drama to the screening.

Since when did she become so famous overseas?

Is it the cumulative result?
Or is it the result of continuous exposure over the past six months?
No matter which one it was, it dispelled Zhou Yun's desire to wander around Cannes.Now that there is no place to hang out, we can only go back to the hotel and stay.

Because the Cannes Film Festival has not yet officially opened, although it is lively now, the stars are not very bright.

But the French TV station wanted to do a live TV interview with Zhou Yun through the official relationship of the Cannes Film Festival. When asked about Zhou Yun coming, Zhou Yun politely refused, saying that he did not bring any work this time, and he had nothing to say.

In the end, they still didn't give up, saying that this interview was to review Zhou Yun's performance experience in the past few years.

They gave a very clear list of films, including "Days", "Behind the Scenes", "Deep Sea", "Words of Fallen Leaves", "One Mountain Two Tigers", and "Killing Song".

When Zhou Yun saw it, he was a little surprised, but also moved.

She has never been interviewed so intensively about her performance experience, and made a review of the works she has performed.

This made her hesitate for a while, but immediately agreed.

What Zhou Yun didn't expect was that this time the French TV station arranged for a very senior film critic Brad Dukahaus and French actor Lather Lord to interview her.

This is enough to show the importance to her.

Because it is a live broadcast, the interview will be broadcast live on French television.

Xu Caiqin was the first to know about the news of this interview, and immediately went to talk about the streaming rights of this interview. After the live broadcast on the TV station, it will be broadcast on XG Video.

The interview preview has been released by many parties and has become a highly regarded event in the film industry.

This kind of movie-themed interviews will inevitably not get a wide range of attention. No matter what, those who are really interested in the movie itself have always been a very small part of the huge entertainment news audience.Perhaps 500 million people would be very willing to listen to Zhou Yun's story about his feasting and feasting in the entertainment industry, but perhaps among these [-] million people, no more than [-] million people would want to hear Zhou Yun's review of his movie shooting story.

But in any case, this is a very important and very heavy interview.

Fans who liked Zhou Yun were stunned by this unexpected surprise, and immediately went to find out how they could watch this interview, and the Cannes Film Festival's several official publicity and promotion of this interview also released a very strong feeling. Signal: The treatment Zhou Yun received in Cannes is the treatment of a top movie star.

This blockbuster was spread back to the country, and was immediately pushed to the top of the hot searches by major platforms—undoubtedly, the fact that Zhou Yun received great attention and courtesy at the Cannes Film Festival is a very eye-catching and attracting "traffic event" on domestic social platforms ", will help the platform create topics and heat.

In fact, as soon as this news came back to the country, some people immediately started to use this incident to attack those who tried to pull Zhou Yun into the water: Zhou Yun did not bring the movie this time, but when he arrived Cannes will properly arrange a retrospective of her work, or broadcast it live on French TV. With this kind of treatment, who can say that she is going on the red carpet?
In fact, the statement about "Zhou Yun rubbing the red carpet" is that some very extreme black fans are chirping, and they have not entered the mainstream public opinion field at all.However, under the persistent rendering of these black fans, this impression appears in every corner of the Internet like maggots attached to bones, leaving many people who don't know the truth saying "Zhou Yun really didn't bring his works to Cannes this time." impression.

In fact, there are many celebrities who did not bring their works to Cannes, but Zhou Yun is the most popular one among them, and the one who has received the most attention.

If it wasn't for Zhou Yun, it wouldn't have aroused such a big discussion and attention.

In the eyes of insiders, this is undoubtedly another manifestation of Zhou Yun's international influence.

Jing Dongtian, who hadn't shown up for a long time, couldn't help talking about it when he was talking on the phone with a friend of his.

"Obviously, Zhou Yun has become a banner of our Chinese-language films in the world film world." The friend said, "This woman has exceeded everyone's expectations. Without the support of any major directors, relying on her talent and kindness Luck, got ahead of everyone."

Jing Dongtian said: "Of course this is a good thing. Before her, we haven't had such a world-class actor in Chinese films for many years. They are all actors of the older generation. Among the young people, except for Song Chi, no one Can carry the banner, and Song Chi—you know, because of his own persistence, in fact, he has not really entered the international film circle. Big production, it proves that Hollywood recognizes her, doesn't it?"

"The only fly in the ointment is that Zhou Yun has almost no contact with our circle." Jing Dongtian said, "The only one she has worked with is Jiang Xin who made a TV series. Besides, in the movie, she has worked with all The new directors are either from Xindun Yao Yuanfeng, or they are working with Shi Luoqi and Xue Qin."

"What does it matter, no matter what, she is a representative of our Chinese-language movies."

"Of course, it's just that her success has nothing to do with our film association, which makes us a little embarrassed. The new generation of actors is more or less related to our association. In fact, it is also the responsibility of our association to cultivate a new generation of actors. Responsibility." Jing Dongtian said, "Now that she has become famous internationally, she has little to do with us, so let us get in touch with those people in the management department, what should I say?"

"Oh, Lao Jing, you think too much. Now the entire film department is very happy that an actor like Zhou Yun has emerged to shoulder the burden of international influence. You are still afraid of her and It has nothing to do with our association, if you are worried about this, then just absorb her into our association, isn't she a member of our association?"

Jing Dongtian said: "It's just an ordinary member, but when we wanted her to be tied more deeply with our association, they bypassed her. Obviously, they didn't have this idea. If it weren't for her overseas influence , I won’t worry about this matter so much. You also know that the country has always attached great importance to cultural influence in the past two years, and movies have carried a very important part of it. It can’t spread overseas. Finally, an actor like Zhou Yun appeared, and he has nothing to do with our association. Think about it, if things go on like this, will the status of our association be affected? The young actors who are emerging now, Basically, they have nothing to do with our film association, including Chen Jing, who has two films shortlisted for the main competition of the Cannes Film Festival this time. He was also promoted by Ning Yao. , In terms of young people's cultivation, if we don't make any efforts, we will really be marginalized."

"Lao Jing, you are worrying about this, isn't it a bit unfounded? No matter how they are picked up, these young actors will not join our film association in the end? As long as the best and best actors are in our association, Isn't that enough?" The old friend said, "We are just an association, neither a brokerage company nor a film and television production company. Although it is our job to discover outstanding young actors, we are not a front-line production department. The most important thing is to be able to attract people together, so that everyone agrees that our film association is a serious association, not a grass-roots platform. When necessary, we can twist together to express our own voice and strength ,This is enough."

Jing Dongtian said: "That being said, if among the best actors, there are not a few direct descendants who are closely connected with our film association, and if there are no direct descendants in some matters, our association's right to speak will fall to the side."

"Oh, Lao Jing, what exactly do you want to say? We have been in a relationship for so many years, so just tell me directly."

Jing Dongtian said: "We want to cultivate a few direct descendants of our own, not Zhou Yun, not Chen Jing, nor Ning Yao and Song Chi who have gradually alienated us from us in the early years."

"Who could that be? These are the best young actors in China right now. If you don't win them over, how are you going to cultivate your direct descendants? Even if you are selected, then they will have greater influence than Zhou Yun and the others." power?"

"At least you can't sit still like this, can you?"
-
The interview was arranged on an open-air balcony of Zhou Yun's hotel.

Now is the best time, the sky is bright and the weather is pleasant.

Outside the hotel, there are bustling crowds and lively voices.

Against such a background sound, the interview scenes also appear to be full of vitality.

The name of film critic Brad Dukahaus is well known in the critics circle.

And Russell Lord is also a very famous French actor.

The two of them formed such an interview lineup, which naturally attracted much attention in the European film circle.

Zhou Yun kissed, hugged and exchanged pleasantries with them.

"Nice to meet you." Lasse Lord said, "I've watched every single movie you've shown in France, no wonder you've become everyone's talking point in just a few years .”

Such a statement is undoubtedly exaggerated.

Zhou Yun had no choice but to wave his hands and said, "Don't say that, I know, I'm just a newcomer in the film industry, I'm just lucky, and have the opportunity to engage in a career I love very much."

Brad Dukahaus had been watching her with a smile during her conversation with Rather Lord.

In fact, Zhou Yun's popularity in the European film circle is largely due to Brad Dukahaus's praise of her several times.

In the field of art films, the influence of the critics is much greater than the box office of the market.

At the beginning, the success of "Days" and "Behind the Scenes" in the European film circle came from the praise of film festivals and film critics after the film was released.The reason why these two films attract so many critics' comments is that Brad Dukahaus always publishes his own film review articles at the first time - with his fame and influence, he has driven the entire critics Attention to these two films.

In this era, many people say that the role and value of film critics are already declining.

Indeed, it is an indisputable fact that there are more and more commercial-oriented movies, the box office is getting higher and higher, and the presence of art movies and serious movies is getting smaller and smaller.But this does not mean that this type of film really has no soil for survival, and the review orientation of film critics has always affected this type of film.Taking the three major European film festivals as an example, it is a concentrated display.A movie that wins an award may not be more influential than a movie that has a high reputation among film critics.

It can be said that Brad Dukahaus has made a great contribution to Zhou Yun's success in the European film circle.

But this is the first time for Brad Dukahaus to meet and communicate with Zhou Yun at close range.

He also wants to know whether this actress who shines on the screen is as eye-catching in reality.
