I really can't act

Chapter 466 Celebrities, Business Cards

There will be other activities after the filming: the consulate invites the creators of the crew to participate in a local salon in France.

Many celebrities and rich people will be present, and the famous characters on the Chinese side are of course Big Brother Cheng and Fang Yi.

There have been many such activities in recent years, and the platform has already been set up.Now the government intends to praise him as a representative figure of the younger generation, and all kinds of mouthpieces are protecting his image. He has achieved such a good reputation, and he has received many endorsements from state-owned enterprises. It is impossible for him to throw his temper when the organization needs him.

NBA player Dayao, who retired last year, was originally contacted by the ambassador through various channels when he was playing in Houston, and accompanied him to attend some celebrity parties.There are similarities between the political world and the showbiz circle. When you go to a foreign country, you must first pay a visit to the dock to get in touch with and get to know key powerful figures.

At this time, having a big star who is famous all over the world brush his face naturally makes the party much more enjoyable.

The eldest brother Cheng is definitely one, and Fang Yi is the younger half.

After washing up in the hotel, he went to the party with his eldest brother Cheng. A slightly embarrassing incident happened in the middle: because he has been exercising too much recently, his whole body is a circle bigger than before, so the custom-made suit was customized according to the original size. Now one size smaller.

Temporary customization is definitely not enough, you can only make do with it.

The eldest brother Cheng made a circle around him, sighing:

"Wow! What a sexy figure. It turns out that the suit should be worn tightly. Should I change the play and ask you to change to a smaller costume in the future?"

Fang Yi shrugged helplessly. "Stop it."

The origin of this banquet is as follows: In 09, the Pinault family, the top richest family in France, photographed the bronze heads of rats and rabbits in Hong Kong for their private collection, which sparked protests from the mainland.Subsequently, the Pinault family announced that they would return the two copper heads to China at the right time, and even said that they bought them for the purpose of returning them to the mainland. They did so out of "conscience" and "justice".

The Pinault family is the controller of Kering Group (formerly known as PPR Group), the third largest luxury goods group in the world. It owns luxury brands such as Gucci, Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta, and Balenciaga.

After the financial crisis, the luxury goods market in the mainland is uniquely beautiful, and it is quickly becoming the world's largest luxury goods market. The Pinault family has the intention of expanding their business in the mainland. Just after the economic rise of the mainland, nationalist sentiments also followed. Producing... is really a match made in heaven, and undoubtedly constitutes a good hype topic.

Big brother Cheng also got involved and contributed to the hype.

He originally said to Fang Yi that "The Chinese Zodiac" was the first draft of "Rush Hour 06" when he shot "Rush Hour 3" in 09... Now that he has lost his memory, his new answer is that he saw the Pinault family buy it in [-]. I lost the Chinese Bronze Head, and I was very sad, so I wrote this script one night after my thoughts flooded.

The Pino family, it was precisely because they heard that the crew of "The Chinese Zodiac" had gone to Paris for filming that they "felt Jackie's calling" and made up their minds to return the bronze head.

In short, this matter has now become a grand event, representing the friendship between the two places. Everyone has their own opinions, and they are all talking in a more decent direction.

Fang Yi was indeed very popular in the salon. His tight-fitting suit leather was simply an aphrodisiac. Many people wanted to try the mysterious Asian male style and his Oriental Pearl, but Fang Yi declined it politely.

It is said that the French have the highest divorce rate in the world?

Rejecting yet another female celebrity who made an appointment to watch the moon, Fang Yi took a sip of champagne from time to time, found a corner to lean against, and thought to himself, no wonder the divorce rate is so high.

"Fang Yi?" The eldest brother Cheng suddenly looked for him eagerly, causing everyone's eyes to fall on Fang Yi.

Fang Yi responded, and then went to the position of eldest brother Cheng.Standing opposite Big Brother Cheng was a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard and a medium to slightly fat body. Fang Yi stretched out his hand: "Hugo?"

Big Brother Cheng introduced: "Luc Besson."

Fang Yi suddenly realized.

Luc Besson is a big-name director in France. His representative work is "The Killer Is Not So Cold". His status is equivalent to that of Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige in the mainland. In the later stage of his career, he liked to make commercial films, cheering for French and even European films and offering suggestions.

After his creativity weakened, he planned to start an "urban film academy", which was suspected of cutting leeks.It is planned to have one session per year, enrolling 30 students, and teaching elites.

The person said to Fang Yi: "I have been paying attention to you. Asia and Europe are both potential film markets, and you young people are the hope of the future."

The translator is the eldest brother Cheng, who can speak French at a fairly good level.

Fang Yi stayed in France for a while, and he could get a general idea of ​​what Luc Besson said, so he had a smooth conversation with Luc Besson, and the speech was fast.

Luc Besson believes: "Hollywood is more technologically advanced than us. If we can also try to make science fiction films and special effects films, we will not be inferior to Hollywood, because we have a large group of creative practitioners."

Fang Yi did not deny his words, but emphasized that "We should also pay attention to Hollywood software."

This term is a bit abstract, and Big Brother Cheng scratched his head and went around a lot before translating it.

But Luc Besson understood: "Are you talking about their management, production process, and the system they established?"

Fang Yi nodded.

Luc Besson was very happy: "I established the City Film Academy to teach these things to children! Hugo, come to our City Film Academy as a professor!"

ah?This kind of thing might be something from the Pheasant Academy, why should I join in the fun?
As a result, as soon as this matter was brought up, he couldn't help it.Everyone present thought that simply holding a salon was not enough to reflect the friendship between the Chinese and French people, and it was only appropriate for Chinese people to be honorary professors in French schools.

Luc Besson was crazy for himself. He ran to the center of the banquet and said loudly: "I love China, I love Chinese culture, and I will also spare time to visit Chinese film schools..."

This is even better, the famous French director is in love with Chinese culture, it cannot be better.

This Frenchman is a director. It is reasonable to say that if he comes to the mainland, his only choice is the Beijing Film Academy, but Fang Yi doesn't think so.

He told Luc Besson not to rush to make a decision, and by the way, he called his Yang opera mentor to explain the matter.The school quickly made a decision, thinking that the French director should be won, and was willing to provide him with a lecture venue and schedule.

Fang Yi told Luc Besson again: "The best film school in China is Central Opera!"

Luc Besson doesn't feel right: "Which school are you from?"

"My humble servant is from Yangxi."

"Then I don't worry. I will definitely visit China next year at the latest. I want to go to the Great Wall and see the Forbidden City in "The Last Emperor". I want to ride a bicycle through Chang'an Avenue like Pavarotti... I want to see the modern culture and art of this ancient oriental country, and I want to see your first-class film school."

Fang Yi emphasized: "Yes, this place is Central Opera."

Then the current head of the Pinault family and the local consul took the stage to give speeches, praising the golden age of friendship between the two places. nation."

"cheers!"

Amidst the cheers, Fang Yi, Big Brother Cheng, and Luc Besson drank the champagne in their hands and paid attention to the hosts on the stage.
