Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 282 Premiere
Affected by the global financial crisis, this year's Cannes Film Festival transaction market saw at least 3% less traffic.

Moreover, film producers have also reduced the number of parties, cocktail parties and dinners they can.

But it is still a film event after all, and the small town of Cannes is still bustling with activity.

At 7:42 pm local time, the crew of "Transcendence" walked on the red carpet for the opening of the film festival.

"Xinlang Entertainment News The 62nd Cannes Film Festival opens. The film "Transcendence" directed by Li Yang and starring Zhang Yuanjun, Huang Lu, Hui Yinghong, Ye Tong and others will premiere on the afternoon of the 18th. The picture shows the male and female protagonist Zhang Yuanjun and yellow dew.”

The crew of "Transcendence" lingered on the red carpet for five or six minutes, allowing reporters to take enough photos before entering the movie palace.

This year's opening film was "Up", and Zhang Yuanjun watched it with gusto.

In the main competition section, the first thing that the audience met was Lou Ye's "Night intoxicated by the Spring Breeze".

As a member of the Chinese Legion, Zhang Yuanjun naturally wanted to support him.

This was also the first time he met the creators of "Spring Breeze". Lou Ye, Tan Zhuo, and Qin Hao all seemed normal to him.

However, Chen Sicheng is different.

Let me first state that Zhang Yuanjun did not know Chen Sicheng before and the two had no contact, so there is no stereotype and prejudice.

But the feeling Chen Sicheng gave him today was that he was extremely confident!
Confidence is certainly a good trait, but with Chen Sicheng’s head held high, his faint smile, and his hair that may have been baked with oil or not washed at all, he gave Zhang Yuanjun the feeling of “look.” How handsome I am, look how powerful I am.”

However, Chen Sicheng's attitude was quite modest, and his communication with Zhang Yuanjun and other guests was very friendly.

Oh, by the way, he wore a very sexy orange suit at the premiere press conference.

Not many people came to support the premiere of "Spring Breeze" today, and Zhang Yuanjun was the only one from the "Transcendence" crew.

Europe is more receptive to artistic films than any other market in the world.

But in other words, European audiences showed no mercy when they complained about the movie.

The premiere of "Spring Breeze Night" encountered an unprecedented embarrassing scene.

After the film was screened, the audience booed and no one applauded. Some viewers even did not want to participate in the subsequent sharing session and left early.

The main creators of "Spring Breeze" really couldn't help but finally accepted the reporter's interview.

Zhang Yuanjun left the scene with his assistant, and Xiao Zhao felt pity for them: "If I were to be teased like this on stage, I would have no shame to stand."

"Just wait and see tomorrow's program. These European reporters are even more ugly when they curse." Zhang Yuanjun said.

"We must not do this when we premiere. If this spreads to China, there will be no way to mess around."

"Can't you stand this?" Zhang Yuanjun said, "If you can't swallow this, then stop messing around."

As a public figure, his works are publicly disseminated. To put it bluntly, half of the money he earns comes from being scolded.

Xiao Zhao thought: "That's right. When Yifei was said that, she survived."

Sure enough, the next day's film festival program gave "Spring Breeze Evening" a score of 1.6. Film critics said that the film's excessive display of XA was untenable poetry.

I heard that Lou Ye left Cannes the next afternoon and headed for Paris.

On the 16th, Li An's "Making Woodstock" premiered, and Zhang Yuanjun also attended. The film received negative reviews, with a 2.0 showing, and Li An flew out of Cannes that day.

On the morning of the 17th, Du Qifeng's "Revenge" premiered, and Zhang Yuanjun was invited to attend. After the screening, film critics said, "The movie lacks surprises and lacks Du Qifeng's previous creativity." The screening score was 2.1.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Yuanjun went to the press conference of the Philippine movie "Kinari". The movie was rated 1.2 points by the program, which was lower than "Spring Breeze".

"Am I poisonous or is the movie poisonous?" Zhang Yuanjun was dumbfounded.

Is there really such a thing as poisonous milk in the world?
Li Yang joked: "Why don't you come tomorrow? I'm a little worried now."

Zhang Yuanjun defended himself: "I just went to watch the movie. I didn't say a word. It has nothing to do with me if the program gave negative reviews." "I don't know, but at present, the common points of these four movies are Even you went to see it." Huang Lu also joined in the joke.

"If there is such a mysterious power," Zhang Yuanjun said, "I will use my power and let the media give us a high score, 3.5 to 3.6."

It's the afternoon of the 18th, and the crew of "Transcendence" is ready.

All Chinese-language media coming to Cannes this year have received invitations from the film studio.

Of course Zhang Ziyi will attend. There are three judges for the main competition unit, namely jury chairman Isabelle Huppert, China Bay actor Shu Qi and Korean director Lee Chang-dong.

Chen Kun and Zhao Yanzi, who came to Cannes to promote their new film "Mulan", were invited, and Tony Leung, Li An and Cai Mingliang made a surprise appearance.

Chen Sicheng and Tan Zhuo from the "Spring Breeze" crew also appeared at the premiere.
MK2 also invited many international media and filmmakers to attend the film premiere.

At the press conference before the premiere, the creators of "Transcendence" accepted questions from reporters.

As a director, Li Yang of course shoulders the most important responsibility: "This film was made quite quickly. It was being prepared after the Cannes Film Festival in 07. ... This is my first time to work with Zhang Yuanjun. Although he is young, he His performance surprised me. His interpretation of the characters was very accurate and his expressions were very fluent, which saved us a lot of time during the shooting. ... We did not criticize anything, but we were elaborating on such a phenomenon and such a person's story. "

Of course the actors have to respond and compliment each other.

After the press conference, everyone entered the movie palace to watch the film.

The finished film of "Transcendence" is 114 minutes long. After the story was moved to Hong Kong Island, the screenwriters added to the protagonist the spiritual traits of mainland immigrants seeking identity on Hong Kong Island.

It makes the protagonist have a more sense of story and his identity is more complex.

The theme story of "Transcendence" takes place in school, but with such a change of characters, the story pattern opens up and has a hint of meaning.

After the video was played, the audience burst into warm applause!
"Okay!" This is the cheer from the Chinese media.

"Bravo!"

Huppert, who was sitting in the front row, stood up and applauded and nodded frequently.

"This young man is incredible." Li An said to Cai Mingliang, "With such mature acting skills at the age of 24, it's a bit like still water runs deep."

Cai Mingliang nodded in agreement after hearing this: "Judging from "Transcendence", the younger generation in Bay Island cannot keep up with him. This cannot be taught in film schools or on-site directors."

Li An said softly: "God will reward you with food."

The theme of "Transcendence" is loneliness and redemption, which is particularly popular in Europe.

When Huppert left the Cinema Palace, he shook hands with the creators and specifically said to Zhang Yuanjun: "I like your performance."

Zhang Yuanjun smiled and thanked.

Shu Qi, on the other hand, blinked at a few people, smiled and said nothing.

Li Cangdong said in simple English: "I like your film."

The grand premiere of "Transcendence" was immediately reported back to China by domestic media:

"On the afternoon of the 18th local time, the film "Transcendence" directed by Li Yang and starring Zhang Yuanjun premiered at the official film palace of the film festival. Before 1 o'clock, a long line of people lined up outside the film palace to buy tickets. The film crew invited many well-known films People's film media participated, and Huppert, the chairman of the main competition unit jury, also appeared at the scene. "Transcendence" is about... After the film was screened, warm applause and cheers erupted in the Cinema Palace. After the screening, the audience and the media expressed their gratitude. The film was highly praised. Both Li Yang and Zhang Yuanjun said that they could finally let go of their worries."

Early the next morning, the film festival program was updated, and a total of 18 films were screened in the main competition on the 3th.

"Antichrist" opened with 1.6 points.

"Looking for Eric", 2.9 points.

"Transcendence" from China ranked third with a score of 3.1.

The domestic media finally breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, there is a film on the stage. This time, some manuscripts have been written.
