From traffic to movie star

Chapter 461 The end is also the beginning (end)
Although nominally, the three film festivals of Cannes, Venice, and Berlin are called the three major European film festivals, relatively speaking, Cannes is well-deservedly ranked first in terms of popularity and influence.

The Cannes Palme d'Or is the highest award in the international film festival.

The directors who can win this award are all leaders in the film industry with super high-quality masterpieces.

So when Jean-Besson read Wei Xun's name, not to mention Wei Xun and Bai Qianchi who were at the scene couldn't believe it, even the netizens on Huaxia's side were in a hurry to confirm.

"Did I hear it wrong!"

"Jean Besson must be talking about Wei Xun, a handsome oriental man, Wei Xun, the director of "Saw" and "Infernal Affairs"!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

"Wow, shit, shit, Director Wei is awesome!"

"It's already past five o'clock in the morning, why don't I go to sleep, just wait for the news headlines to explode, and wait for the entertainment media to go crazy!"

Everyone thought Wei Xun and Bai Qianchi's double-yellow actor was exciting enough, but they didn't expect that there was a bigger one waiting.

Palme d'Or!
Wei Xun is the first director to win the Palme d'Or in Chinese film history in a hundred years!
At the Cannes Film Festival, the big screen was already locked on Wei Xun's face.

"Wow." Jean Besson stood on the podium and joked: "It seems that my old friend has not recovered from the surprise, I can tell you for sure that this award is yours, but if If you haven't come up yet, I think I might think about it again."

There was a burst of good-natured laughter from the audience.

Bai Qianchi stood up excitedly, patted Wei Xun on the shoulder, and urged: "Hurry up, this is the Palme d'Or!"

They were still discussing the topic of 'Is the Palme d'Or made of gold' just now, unexpectedly, the Palme d'Or came here in a blink of an eye.

When Wei Xun came to the stage, there was still surprise on his face... and the best actor trophy in his hand.

"Well, it seems that our Mr. Best Actor has too many trophies in his hands, which is really enviable." Jean-Besson teased, stretched out his hand to hug Wei Xun, and finally gave today's The late Palme d'Or was handed over to him.

Holding a trophy in each of his left and right hands, Wei Xun stood in front of the floor-standing microphone with crooked smiles.

"I just thanked a lot of people, and I didn't expect to stand here again in a blink of an eye. This award is very meaningful to me, including to the Chinese film industry. This is the first time for us Chinese filmmakers to win the world award in Cannes. A top film award. Over the past century, seven generations of Chinese filmmakers have worked diligently to go abroad and export culture. You may not know them, but it is they who laid the foundation and created Wei Xun today, and me This golden palm in my hand."

Wei Xun took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Now Huaxia is the world's second largest movie box real estate market. There are countless outstanding filmmakers in the industry bringing their works to connect with the world. On behalf of Huaxia, I welcome filmmakers from all over the world. Come to Huaxia to cooperate, the Eastern Huaxia people are famous for their hospitality."

After finishing speaking, he stood on the stage and raised two golden trophies with both hands.

There was thunderous applause from the audience.

The oriental man on the stage was elegant, mature, handsome and gentle, so dazzling that people couldn't take their eyes off him.

However, no one knew that when the oriental man walked off the stage, he smiled and said to Bai Qianchi next to him, "The case has been solved, the golden palm is made of 18K pure gold, 118 grams of gold palm leaves, and a crystal base... ..."

Bai Qianchi immediately smiled cheerfully.
-
The new edition of the Cannes Film Festival came to an end with the announcement of the Palme d'Or.

And at this moment in China, it is the morning of a new day.

Many people wake up in the morning and are shocked to find that, from newsletter, petal forum, Yashan, rabbit area and other domestic entertainment sections, and even social news headlines, they are all reporting the same news overwhelmingly - "Infernal Affairs" won the gold medal. Palme d'Or, Wei Xun and Bai Qianchi were crowned emperor together in Cannes.

On the newsletter, #卫苏金果palm# and #卫迪白千脚Cannes双黄影帝# were two hot searches at the same time occupying the first and second spots on the hot search list, and they were both in the state of being detonated.

The photos of Wei Xun and Bai Qianchi embracing on the awards stage in Cannes, as well as the photos of Wei Xun holding two trophies and smiling on the awards stage, were reposted by various media and netizens.

"Wei Xun won the first Palme d'Or in the history of Chinese film in a hundred years! "Infernal Affairs" is destined to be recorded in the legend of Chinese film history!"

"Wei Xun and Bai Qianchi won the title of emperor together at the Cannes Film Festival with "Infernal Affairs"!"

"Wei Xun holds the Palme d'Or and "Saw" and "Infernal Affairs" two works, and has completely stepped into the ranks of international directors. Congratulations to Wei Xun!"

"Film Weekly, New Youth Film News, Dynasty Entertainment, Huaying Media, Huaxia Movie Channel and many other newspapers, media departments of film and television companies, and TV channels jointly issued red news, congratulations to "Infernal Affairs" for winning the Palme d'Or in Cannes!"

"The youngest Chinese Grand Slam actor, the 30-year-old Cannes actor, and the winner of the International Palme d'Or, the Chinese filmmaker Wei Xun who alone has earned a box office of more than 100 billion. His life is a legend."

Domestically, everyone from the media to the public is having a carnival.

And far away in the small town of Cannes, France, the night wind was very cool, Wei Xun changed out of the dress he wore when walking the red carpet, quietly came out of the hotel in casual clothes, and strolled on the street alone.

He is very satisfied and happy now.

The Palme d'Or is definitely the biggest gain of this trip to Cannes.

"Perhaps, it's time to move out some theoretical knowledge, as the winner of the Palme d'Or."

He walked on the street unconsciously, thinking in his heart that it was almost time.

Theoretical knowledge about expressionism, methodism, and experience, about the definition of performance, about performance beliefs and emotional communication...

As for the above theoretical knowledge, there is a book that can perfectly cover it. The name of this book is-"Self-cultivation of Actors".

Shao Bing, Bao Qiang, Kang Cheng and others have already gone to Hollywood. Now that Wei Xun has won the Palme d'Or, it is time to move to Hollywood and reconcile with them as agreed with them earlier.

There is a theoretical book "The Birth of an Actor" that opened the way. The theoretical system and box office capital are two-pronged. The future road will definitely be easier.

But...it's definitely not that simple. Perhaps in the next ten or 20 years, we must work hard for this goal.

The first decade is over.

What about the second one?
Wei Xun is looking forward to it.

But things in the future belong to the future after all, so it's useless to think too much right now.He raised his hand and looked at his watch, guessing that it was already morning in China, so he took out his mobile phone to call Chi Tang, and then walked back along the quiet street.

Perhaps it was because of a true connection, the moment Wei Xun was about to make a call, Chi Tang's call came in first.

Wei Xun smiled and pressed the answer button.

On the other side of the phone, Chi Tang said with a smile, "Wow, actor, and Palme d'Or, husband, you're too good. Now you're the headline of all the domestic news."

Wei Xun said with a smile: "You already know? Then I should have called you earlier, but thinking that today is the weekend, you can sleep late, so I didn't bother you."

"It's frustrating to be known about surprises in advance. I understand. To make up for you, I'll give you a surprise too." Chi Tang paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Wei, you may... Dad."

Wei Xun only felt that he was suffocating, and his heart missed half a beat.

On a quiet night, the sky was full of moon and stars, and under the street lamps in the small town of Cannes, a Chinese man suddenly jumped up, clenched his fists excitedly, and grinned silently.

"It really was a big surprise, my wife, just wait, I'll buy a ticket to go back right away..."

——The whole book is over. ——
