This director is very reliable

Chapter 352 Is it a big deal? (twenty four)

It was Yang Fan who called, telling him that the matter was not done, but Venice officials ignored it...

"Wait for me, I'm outside."

Shen Changlin probably understood the situation, then hung up and looked at Liu Qianqian: "Then I'm going back first?"

"...Aren't you going to continue shopping?"

"No, the crew has something to ask me..."

Sissy was very concerned: "Can I help?"

Shen Changlin shook his head: "It's not about the actors..."

"Then you go back to the set..."

"...I'll take you back to the hotel!"

"No, it's not like I don't know how to take a taxi!"

"That won't work, this is Thailand... There are gangsters."

"...Then send me off."

……

After sending Liu Qianqian to the hotel where he was staying, he turned and left, not noticing the disappointment that flashed across Qianqian's face...

Nonsense, people came to Thailand to visit the class, is it really just a drop in?

But Shen Changlin did have something to do, got in the taxi, and immediately dialed Yang Fan's phone: "Venice officials are unwilling to change?"

"That's right, they said it was the intention of the Wanwan government's representative office in Italy... They are also very embarrassed!"

"...It's embarrassing, you tell them, if you don't change it, I will issue a notice!"

Yang Fan hesitated: "Would it be too much to do this, we are just here to participate in the film festival!"

"Brother, if we didn't go, didn't see it, it's fine if we didn't talk, but now that we saw it, you still treat it as if it didn't happen? Are you out of your mind?"

"But I think we're just doing art..."

"Be sober, Venice is an international event in the film industry!"

"...I am worried that doing so will affect Venice's official attitude towards us, and affect the award of "Big Buddha"..."

Shen Changlin was speechless: "Then let's withdraw, let's talk to Mou, let's go to Toronto...the screening in Toronto, and then contact the distributor in North America to make a public screening...Let me tell you, "Big Buddha" will definitely win an Oscar!"

"Have you found a good candidate for the prize?"

"That's right, Harvey... I gave him two ways, one is 200 million US dollars, and asked him to help him get the Oscar for the best foreign language film; the other is to collect his crimes over the years, if he can't figure it out, just make it public !"

Yang Fan was very interested: "How did you collect it?"

"He has a bad reputation, and there are a lot of people staring at him, but he is currently watching the sea...I told him that he can ignite public opinion in France and the UK..."

Yang Fan nodded, he probably understood, and then asked: "...How can I persuade Ah Mou? He is looking forward to this film festival!"

"It's not easy... Forget it, I'll call him!"

The Venice Film Festival is in direct competition with the Toronto Film Festival!
Since the event is close to…

Of these two top international film festivals, one is competitive and the other is non-competitive; one focuses on art and the other on the market; one is in Southern Europe and the other is in North America.

Originally, they could live in peace and not interfere with the river, but there was a turbulent battle, and even a head-to-head confrontation last year-the Venice Film Festival was just halfway through, and nearly half of the media and film crews moved to the Toronto Film Festival. This kind of guests flocked The scene of going away as a guest discredited Venice.

In terms of historical status, Venice certainly beats Toronto, but Toronto has been promoted to the ranks of the top international film festivals with its many masterpieces and even the world premieres and North American premieres of Oscar-winning films, and will naturally join the top international film festivals. In the battle for the movie.

Oh, the world premiere of a masterpiece is an important symbol of a film festival's discernment and status in the world.

Venice...

Tsk tsk, the Venice Film Festival has a Taiwanese movie night, and the provincial flags are flying...

According to regulations, the so-called provincial flags cannot appear in the film exhibition venue, which has always been a well-known principle, but it is so grandiose in Venice!
For example, "Sediq Bale" was shortlisted for Venice...

At first it was china taiwan, but it turned out to be a protest, and later it was changed to Chinese Taipei, still a protest.

Almost every WW movie screened at the Venice Film Festival, there will be a dispute over the production region...

Including "Lust, Caution" is also a slapstick, but Li An never said anything publicly, but other people are different.

What did director Wei say, "Try to gain more space in the world and expand the film's influence and soft power in the world!" '

Later, his movie was released in the mainland, and when it was promoted, it was in the name of anti-Japanese patriotism...

too disgusting!

As a result, this year, they have gone one step further.

Movie night, flags fly...

It's fine if Shen Changlin doesn't know, the key is he knows, and let him pretend to be deaf and dumb, that's impossible!

Yang Fan asked the official of the film festival, and they said, 'Yes!This is a new arrangement for this year.Just a new way, for no particular reason! '

Shen Changlin knew about this and asked them to protest...

Isn't it an attempted protest now?

Then go!

……

"It's clear, they want to use movies to output soft power... Actually it's useless, it can only be a fight between trapped beasts..."

"That can't be used to them. Art and politics are linked...I have already reported it to the General Administration..."

"What's the big deal, let's go to Toronto, and then directly contact Columbia to show "Big Buddha", you don't lack the Golden Lion Award..."

It's a pity for Ah Mou, because Shen Changlin is going to intervene!

Once he gets involved, things will definitely get bigger...

But he was able to distinguish between priorities and decisively agreed to withdraw from the Venice Film Festival...

However, Shen Changlin changed his mind after a phone call from the Film Bureau. Deputy director Li said, "I have reported it to the Italian consulate. They protested and changed it back. Don't withdraw from the competition...Retiring from the competition is too embarrassing!" '

"Why can't you just hit the face? Carrots and sticks, now just give carrots, is it interesting?"

"Ask for Harmony now...I promise you, one day, they'll know how awesome it is!"

"Row…"

Shen Changlin called Yang Fan again, told him about the matter, and said by the way: "The plan for the Toronto screening remains unchanged... I won the prize, and I will go to Canada immediately!"

"...It's not easy to win an award, Jiang Wen is also one of the judges!"

"Yeah...then you can handle him..."

"How can I do it... Hey... Hey... Grass!"

Jiang Wen had a conflict with Ah Mou, when "The Sun Also Rises" was shortlisted in Venice, Ah Mou was the chairman of the jury, Jiang Wen did not win a prize!
Let's just say that you admire Li Amine, so if you present an award to "Lust, Caution", how about a consolation prize for "The Sun Also Rises"?
Did not give…

How to get him?
Shen Changlin didn't know, but he knew that the chairman of the jury was the key!

It's nothing, of course, the major media in Wanwan Province will definitely clamor for 'suppression' theory...

This is their traditional skill.

However, Shen Changlin was very depressed, and he couldn't express his opinion even if he wanted to!

He simply clicked on Weibo, wanting to browse, and then his phone rang, and it was a message from Liu Qianqian, "Is the matter settled?" '
