China Entertainment: Indulge in Vanity Fair

Chapter 84 Cannes Opening

Wang Zhonglei left excitedly, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Liu Yan who was about to knock on the door, and the two of them smiled awkwardly.

"Yeah, Xiao Wang is always here?"

"It's okay. I've finished talking with Director He. If you have anything to do, go to him."

"Oh, I'm fine, I just want him to help me refer to tomorrow's dress, it's all right..." Liu Yan turned and left after speaking.

In such a situation, it is not easy for her to stay. Although some things are known in the circle, no one will give anyone conclusive evidence. If you give conclusive evidence to others, you are being stupid.

……

Why did He Fang give Wang Zhonglei such a bad idea?In fact, I feel that Huayi is going to play too much, playing monsters in various circles, and de-moving movies... A good boss in the industry will not serve as a good example. Let it go crazy first, it will definitely make it perish.

Dig a hole for them and make them a thorn in the side of capital.

With Huayi's pissing nature, they won't just do it this time, as long as they succeed this time, they will do it countless times.

In this way, they will become a thorn in the eyes of the capital, and will also make the higher-ups disgusted. At the same time, it will also make the higher-ups alert in advance to the financialization of film projects.

The other is to teach those private capitals with a lot of money and nowhere to spend it a lesson, let them speculate in real estate every day, lend usury every day, and who will you cheat?Anyway, if these people cut the leeks of ordinary people, no matter where they cut theirs, they will not feel uneasy.

Although He Fang can't be said to be a big bad guy, it doesn't mean he won't do bad things. Maybe doing bad things to capital is a good thing to ordinary people?For the time being, shall we?

On May 2010, 5, the 12rd Cannes International Film Festival officially opened, and He Fang and the others didn't have time to go out to identify the crew.

The main reason is that they came too late. On May 5th, all the participants of the film festival were too busy, and they were all preparing for the opening ceremony at night.

However, in the morning, Jacob, the chairman of the organizing committee, led someone over to pay attention to the crew of "Single Zoo".

Of course, praise of "Single Zoo" is indispensable, and this can only be done by listening.

Every year, the red carpet at the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival is crowded, and this year is the same. The crew of "Single Zoo" ranked 249th on the stage, right in the middle, there were a total of four to five hundred people walking the red carpet.

He Fang didn't pay attention to see when the crew of "Sunshine Chongqing" will appear on the stage. Regardless of them, we have to meet anyway.

Because tomorrow is the screening of "Sunshine Chongqing", which is also a Chinese shortlisted film, if they don't join in the show, they will only make foreigners laugh.

Therefore, whether they recognize each other or not, they have to go, so it doesn't matter if they can see each other today.

The screening of "Single Zoo" was scheduled to be released on May 5. This is a good time and it happens to be on Sunday, so the arrangement is not bad.

The red carpet ceremony started at 5:[-] p.m., but after several people who walked the red carpet from the "Single Zoo" crew left the hotel room, everyone was stunned by Fan Bingbing.

Dragon robe, she actually came out wearing a dragon robe.

He Fang was also taken aback, and then he remembered that there was such a thing, but he didn't remember the specific time in another time and space.

But seeing Fan Bingbing appearing in a dragon robe, Fan Bingbing wearing a dragon robe in another time and space must not have appeared at the Cannes Film Festival before 2010.

"Wow, Mr. Bingbing, are you preparing for the enthronement of the queen? This is too fierce." He Fang didn't know what to say.

"Bingbing, this suit of yours may steal everyone's attention tonight, it's too explosive."

"Yes, sister Bingbing, how did you come up with it?"

"This dress is rustic..."

……

It's just that Li Bingbing pretended to smile, but his face was stiff, because it made her lose face too much, and this Fan surnamed stole the limelight again.

However, Wang Zhonglei patted Li Bingbing's hand with a smile and gave her a relieved look.

Indeed, in the subsequent red carpet ceremony, Fan Bingbing took most of the shots, and all kinds of lights flashed on Fan Bingbing.

It's just that people like Liu Yan, Xu Dongdong, and Zhang Xinyu who came to this kind of international red carpet for the first time were a little nervous, and they also envied Fan Bingbing's limelight.

Not to mention, Fan Bingbing's outfit was later selected by the media as one of the top ten actress outfits on the opening red carpet in Cannes. Just one set of clothes made her famous internationally.

Of course, there is another female star who has become popular, and that is Li Feier, because her strapless dress slipped down several times while walking the red carpet, revealing the silicone breast stickers inside and the scotch tape wrapped around her body.The worst thing was that the media took a photo of Li Fei'er clutching her "weapon" next to Fan Meiren, who was "the weapon" Yuxuanang.

……

There was nothing interesting about the opening ceremony, except that the chairman gave a speech on the stage, and nine judges appeared. They are:

Tim Burton, Alexandre Desplat, Benicio Del Toro, Kate Beckinsale, Alberto Barbera, Emanuele Carrel, Vic Do Iris, Shekhar Kapoor, Giovanna Mezogiorno.

Some of the judges do not know each other, after all, some are from India, some are from Spain...

How can the audience know some national stars that they don't know?
It's just that this year's chairman of the jury is an acquaintance of everyone, he is Tim Burton, a director from the United States.

What is his famous work?Many people don't know what awards he has won in the three major film festivals, and he has never won an Oscar.

But "Edward Scissorhands" he shot, I believe everyone has seen it, and "Batman Returns" and "Alice in Wonderland" are his masterpieces, which can still be remembered by the audience.

To be honest, this is a Hollywood commercial director. If he is asked to be the chairman of the jury of the Cannes Film Festival, one of the three major art film festivals, he probably wants to focus on the story.

I am afraid that those films that are not story-oriented are going to be unlucky.

This is what He Fang thought after he saw that the chairman of the jury was Tim Burton. Of course, he didn't know the specific result. In another time and space, as a film commentator, he talked about this year's shortlisted film "Sunshine". "Chongqing", also talked about "Extremely Evil", and "Beautiful Mistakes"...

Of course, there is also the winner of the Palme d'Or "Uncle Bumi Who Can Recall His Past Lives"...

During the opening ceremony, a few speakers spoke for a dozen or 10 minutes, and then the opening film "Robin Hood" began...

It's a Hollywood commercial about Robin Hood's life before he became a legend.

When He Fang and the others were watching the opening film in Cannes, there was already overwhelming Cannes news on the Internet in China.

"He Fang's Chinese tunic suit is full of heroism"

"Fan Bingbing's domineering dragon robe shines in Cannes"

"Li Fei'er accidentally disappeared and walked the red carpet calmly"

"Li Bingbing is wearing a red cheongsam without losing his momentum"

……

On May 5th, at 13:08 in the morning, the media field of "Rizhao Chongqing" lasted for nearly two hours.

What is a media field?It means that when the main creator will come, he will communicate with the media.Generally, there will be major media present to participate in the viewing of the film. This is why the media will publish comments on the film and score the possibility of winning in professional film media such as "Sight and Sound" and "Movie Handbook".

This morning session is a bit early, He Fang and the others got together late last night, so they got up early in the morning...

Forget it, anyway, it’s like this for mixed crews. When filming, I get up at four or five in the morning, and usually get up at eleven or twelve in the morning when I’m free. I’m used to it.

At 8:20, He Fang finally gathered the crew of "Single Zoo" and went to the screening hall of "Rizhao Chongqing".

Producer Han Xiaoxi and director Wang Xiaoshuai led the show. Wang Xueqi, Li Lingyu, Qin Hao, Wang Ziyi, Zhang Jiayi, Wang Kuirong, Ding Jiali, and Li Feier were all present, and welcomed the media and colleagues who came to join the show at the door.

"Ah, where is this? It's a pleasure to meet you. I didn't expect to meet you for the first time in Cannes. Thank you for coming." Wang Xiaoshuai greeted He Fang with a standard handshake with a professional smile.

The voice is very enthusiastic and the expression is very professional.

"Director Wang, hello, I'm here to study..."

"Haha, I'm being modest, please come in."

After meeting and shaking hands, He Fang led everyone in to find a good place to sit down.

After a while, the movie started.
