I'm a movie star on earth

Chapter 310 Tokyo Film Festival

First held in 1985, the Tokyo Film Festival is the largest film festival in Asia and the only A-type competition-type international film festival in Japan recognized by the International Film Producers Association.

At first, it was held every two years, and since 1992, it has been changed to an annual event.Although its influence and popularity are slightly weaker than those of the three major European film festivals, it has attracted the attention of many movie fans since it was held.

This year's film festival is held a little earlier than in previous years. In previous years, it was only held in October. This year, it was moved to late August.However, this does not affect the influence of the film festival. Excellent films from all over the world still gather here.

This year also has two Chinese-language films shortlisted, one "Problem Not a Problem", which is adapted from Mr. Lao She's novel and directed by Mei Feng. "Night", also won the best screenplay at the Cannes Film Festival for the latter.

The other one is adapted from the stage play of the same name "Shedding Papa" directed by the director of the Hong Kong Island Repertory Theater in 2011. This play was born out of the work of the famous Japanese playwright Norihiko Tsukuda, starring Gu Zai and Wu Zhengyu. How is the quality of the specific film? I don't know yet, but there will be a screening at the film festival, so you can go and see it.

As for Li Hyuk, although he was selected for an individual award at the film festival, he was selected for his foreign film.But if they were other actors, they would all accept such an opportunity. Li Hyuk had such an opportunity, and it was too late for them to envy him.

"La La Land" was shortlisted for the Best Director, Golden Unicorn Award for Best Film, and Best Actor and Actress Award, making it a favorite for this year's awards.

It is worth mentioning that because the Tokyo Film Festival is located in the neighboring island country, the Chinese film circle paid special attention to the Tokyo Film Festival. In order to compete, the Shanghai Film Festival was held in 1992.But in terms of influence in the world, the Shanghai Film Festival is still not as good as the Tokyo Film Festival.

At the Tokyo Film Festival, the Chinese Legion also won many excellent results. In 1987, when Zhang Guoshi was not a national teacher, he won the best actor with the movie "Old Well", and he was the first Chinese to win the Tokyo Film Festival. The best actor.

In 1991, Zhao Lirong won the Best Actress Award at the Tokyo Film Festival with "New Year". The day after she won the Best Actress Award, when a reporter approached her for an interview, she was watering flowers at home before she realized that she had won the Best Actress Award.I thought I was just running with me, so I didn't go at all.

The nearest Best Actor of the China Tokyo Film Festival is the veteran actor Wang Jinchun, who won this award in 2013 for "Police Diary".

Here I want to mention Fan Ye. Although she is very controversial, including her acting skills, she also won the Tokyo Film Festival Best Actress in 2010 with "Guanyin Mountain".Since then, no Chinese actress has won this award again.

Li He and Fan Ye had met several times. When Fan Ye was planning to film "Dynasty Woman: Concubine Yang", he invited Li He to play the leading role. After reading the script, Li He resolutely refused. , for no other reason than it sucks.Perhaps every woman has her own princess dream, and this movie is the screen princess dream created by Fan Ye for himself.

Poor director Tian and Guo Shiyi, who made such a film, left behind Ma Zhen's stalk and became the laughing stock of the film industry.It's also fortunate that Li He didn't accept this film and let Li Ming take over. Fortunately.

On August 25th, at the end of the summer vacation, just when "Tomb Raider Notes" became the big winner of the summer vacation among the critics, the Tokyo Film Festival officially kicked off. The opening film was the musical comedy "The Diva" from the UK.

The film, starring Meryl Splitter and Hugh Grant, can be considered a Hollywood lineup.I have to say that Aunt Mei's acting skills are quite good, the performance is relaxed and natural, and it is easy for people to immerse themselves in it.

Da Mi Mi said for a while that his goal was Meryl Split, which made Li He laugh, but later Da Mi Mi became obsessed with the expansion of the business territory, so he never mentioned this matter again .Perhaps in Da Mi Mi's view, acting has just become a hobby and pastime for himself with capital in hand.

During the ten-day screening period of the film festival, many films participating in the selection were unveiled one after another, among which "La La Land" was the most popular.Li Hyuk already has a solid foundation of popularity in the island country, and musicals are also very popular among fans in the island country, so all the screenings of "La La Land" are sold out.

Li He worked diligently with the crew to promote. Before the rise of the Chinese market, the island country has always been the second largest box office market in the world, second only to North America, so this market is still very important.

During the film festival, Li Hyuk and Emma Stone appeared on various interview programs in the island country together, but they did not go to variety shows. Some island variety shows are abnormal, and Li Hyuk said he could not accept it.

In his spare time, Li Hyuk also took a walk around Mount Fuji. His senses were mediocre, not as good as Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.But to commemorate and promote the film, Li Hyuk and Emma Stone also posted a few photos together on Weibo.

These cooperations caused ridicule from netizens, come on naughty netizen Aite Da Mimi, Da Mimi lived up to expectations, left a message below to reply, and asked Li He to go home and wait.

This interactive entertainment is very effective, and then the news similar to the marriage of Li He and Da Mi Mi appeared on the hot search. Netizens who didn’t know why clicked in and saw that it was the news of Li He and Da Mi Mi showing their affection again. Scolding the unscrupulous media is a headline party.

At the same time, after a long period of publicity, the reputation of "La La Land" has spread completely, especially in island countries and China. The film has been fully publicized, and Emma Stone's original reputation is not as good as Emma Watson's , after several months of promotion for binding with Li Hyuk, the popularity in East Asia has risen sharply.

Sister Stone's few fans cheered. When Emma was mentioned, everyone would not be the first to think of Emma Watson.

Because the word-of-mouth of the film is really overwhelming, some viewers can't help but want to see the true face of the film, especially Li Hyuk's fans.Fans with conditions can't help but buy tickets to go to Tokyo to watch this movie at the film festival.

Because of "La La Land", the Tokyo Film Festival ushered in a larger flow of people than in previous years, and even stimulated the island country's declining tourism industry this year.

This is the harvest brought by a cultural project, which stimulates the development of the local economy. Therefore, holding a film festival is not purely for the so-called film art. In the end, everything is related to interests.

Therefore, all places with cats and dogs have the idea of ​​holding film festivals, but some are famous and some are not. In terms of popularity, some are not as good as the fictional Ivory Mountain Film Festival.
