Chapter 108 Cannes Best Screenplay, Sledgehammer! (fourth more)
"I posted the post."

……

Although the scale of D8's expedition was small, it had a considerable impact in France.

No way, this is purely a numerical advantage.

Not to mention France, even in Europe as a whole, the popularity on the Internet is only average.

For example, if there are tens of thousands of views of videos on European networks, it will be very popular.

But in our China, it is really embarrassing to meet people if it is less than ten million.

In addition, D8 also pays attention to methods when going out. Some people directly popularize plastic French and simply make some standardized letter combinations, and everyone can just distribute them.

The general idea is that when it comes to plagiarism, you need evidence.

As a result, the official Cannes website crashed.

This was really just a small expedition.

However, it shocked Europa.

Cannes will naturally take it seriously and will never accuse anyone unjustly.

Big-name celebrities from all walks of life also surprisingly have a new understanding of China's Internet power.

Only Quentin Tarantino, this guy goes around telling people.

Awesome!
Niubi~~
Well, Jiang Wen taught him.

By May 5th, the turmoil had subsided temporarily.

But everyone knows in their hearts that this day is the award ceremony, and there should be a result.

And does this incident have anything to do with Xiang Yang?
Li Yang's curiosity was aroused early on. He is also an old man who likes to surf the Internet.

Network ID, swordsman Li Yang.

This time D8 went on an expedition with courtesy and grace, which made him, a swordsman, proud and handsome.

Anyway, he felt that this matter should have something to do with Xiang Yang.

really!

Xiang Yang didn't say much at all, and admitted it on the spot.

That post was made by him.

Li Yang was naturally happy when he heard that, but he was even happier, and there was also the young master beside Xiangyang.

Of course, I discussed this post with her.

Although two people don't share a room in Cannes, at least they are in the same hotel.

It was late at night, Xiangyang touched it, and then. . .

Well, let’s talk about this post.

When I think about it, my face turns red, that night. . .

Fortunately, Xiangyang was focusing on this post at this time.

"Director, I didn't expect such a result. Our domestic netizens are still very cute. My original intention is to present the facts as they should be, and let everyone make public comments. , let’s see if it’s plagiarism.

I think this is the best I can do, what else can I do?
And in addition. . . "

Before he could continue, Li Yang laughed and said, "It will help the box office!"

Correct!
The total investment in our movie is the money spent on filming, and the current movie needs to be promoted during the release stage.

This is the case for any film. Of course, some promotions are done by the theaters, but they also need to get money for promotions, that is, a share of the box office.

"Blind Kill" doesn't have this kind of treatment, and it doesn't even have a few theaters to go to now, so there's a huge gap in publicity and distribution.

But, not doing anything at all?
Xiangyang's current abilities are still insufficient.

Propaganda costs a lot of money.

Like the Wang brothers, they have extensive resources and can replace a lot of advertisements.

What can Xiang Yang do?
Right now, he saw an opportunity.

Not only do you want to clear your name, but you also need to make a public announcement.

In fact, "Blind Kill" has already gained a certain reputation through the previous College Student Film Festival and this Cannes Film Festival.

The specific manifestation is that the number of theaters willing to show the film has increased.

This is good news, but it's not enough.

Also, what if the reputation of plagiarism really spreads?
So, Xiang Yang did this.

He didn't say anything nice for himself, he really posted the main content of the two works.

Let's see for ourselves.

It is indeed a bit unexpected to have the current result, but I am really happy.

So. . .

"Let's go! Let's go and listen to what Cannes has to say!"

Li Yang shouted.

Xiangyang and Xiaoye stepped onto the red carpet in Cannes.

This time it was more formal.

The young master was wearing a blue evening dress, with a small waist that could not help but reveal his shoulders, and he was very beautiful.

Xiang Yang was wearing the suit that Lao Taishan and his mother-in-law bought for him.

Save if you can.

As long as the wife is pretty, that’s enough.

As soon as they appeared, the cameras of Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka's reporters kept flashing.

Especially the domestic reporters, who had been waiting early in the morning.

"Xiang Yang, can you talk about the impact of this plagiarism incident?"

"This one……"

"Who is the screenwriter of Sledgehammer?"

"He is a rather mysterious person."

"Wan Qian, can you tell us about your experience in Cannes?"

"It's a beautiful seaside town."

Just this posture, completely like a big star.

After completing the red carpet and interview, someone came.

"Xiang Yang, Miss Wan, Director Li, what I did was not directed at you, please understand."

Teacher Ah Cheng has a complicated expression on his face.

Xiang Yang and the young man looked at each other, and in the end, let it be like this.

But Li Yang smiled and said, "Teacher Acheng, I understand how you feel, but what is right and what is wrong is a matter of public opinion. Whether it is plagiarism or not is not your decision."

This is already tantamount to tit for tat, and Li Yang is also a literati.

Ah Cheng nodded, "Yes, if it is found that there is no plagiarism, then I will also publicly apologize."

Thus ended the conversation.

Several of them entered the awards ceremony venue at the Cannes Film Festival, waiting for news about the major awards.

In fact, the real embarrassment caused by Teacher Acheng’s actions is the Cannes Organizing Committee.

……

The night before the awards ceremony.

"What's the truth?"

""Blind-Kill", whether this film was plagiarized or not, we have to give an explanation." "Everyone, have any of you read that Japanese novel?"

"Friends in the United States must have read it. After all, it was also published in the United States."

The judges of the Cannes Film Festival change every year, but they will definitely look for actors and directors who are famous and capable.

The same is true this time, and Zhang Manyu is one of the representatives.

And these judges will also joke and even have arguments.

After all, opinions on a movie vary from person to person.

These people are very personal celebrities, and they are all celebrities in their own country. Who will obey whom?
So, Orhan, a well-known Turkish writer, came to have an American friend.

This is interesting.

Because there is no American on the jury of this year’s main competition unit.

But, there are Canadians and Australians.

Anyone who knows the business knows that this is quite damaging.

Sure enough, Sarah Polley and Tony Lecter couldn't help it.

"Sorry, I'm not as knowledgeable as Mr. Orhan."

"Oh, by the way, I haven't seen it either, but has Mr. Orhan seen it?"

The two of them are female celebrities, and they had argued with the Turkish writer before.

In fact, this so-called plagiarism has been discussed since Ah Cheng lobbied Zhang Manyu.

Whenever there is a discussion, there must be at least two schools of views.

One yes, one no.

He is a Turkish writer and has not read Mr. Higashino's novels. After all, they have not been translated into Turkish.

But he knew the general plot, and he felt keenly that it was probably not plagiarism.

The two ladies from Canada and Australia didn't think so. They simply refused to be reasonable and directly concluded that it was plagiarism.

After all, I believe in Zhang Manyu more.

But now...

"I, I took a look."

Zhang Manyu raised her hand to speak, and she was very nervous.

Everyone looked at her. She had never acted like this before, but she still said:

"I apologize. I haven't read that novel before, but I read it specifically in the past two days. I think, um... I shouldn't have plagiarized it."

This. . .

The expressions on the faces of the judges were as complicated as they could be.

What are you doing!

Didn't you say that?

Someone suddenly laughed. He was the Italian director Belluccio. "I ask everyone not to blame or complain about Miss Zhang. We shouldn't do such things now. Let's think about what to do next."

Yes, what to do now?

……

A synonym for waiting is anxiety.

No matter how relaxed your mind is, you will still feel like this.

This is true for both Xiang Yang and Xiao Ye. They had never thought about winning any awards.

This is Cannes, and after all, they are just new actors.

However, on such an occasion, there are so many big stars and big names.

Many people were discussing mysterious and mysterious topics and drinking expensive wine. Almost everyone was looking forward to the results of the awards.

It would be strange if the mentality does not change.

Well, it was very obvious early on that it was Director Li Yang.

He kept rubbing his hands and had already gone to the bathroom five times since the red carpet.

This is a normal physiological response.

Fortunately, the emcee finally announced the start of the awards.

One by one, the names were read out from the mouths of the award-giving guests, and each one attracted cheers and applause.

Europe and the United States are like this in this regard.

Even if I don’t know who the winner is.

Even if the award-winning work is, I don't know.

But when you applaud, you must drum up.

Cheer, you must cheer.

Back then, the Frenchman Le Pen wrote a book called "The Crowd", probably because of this phenomenon.

Xiangyang and the young master also follow the same example. This is considered etiquette.

The two of them had actually made up their minds before.

Get this awards ceremony out of the way and head back to the hotel.

The sledgehammer fights with the young master, this is reliable.

The previous awards were all small prizes.

That is, those units that are generated to make money.

People who often attend film festivals know this well.

After a long list, we finally came to the main competition unit.

"..." Li Yang said nothing, but his expression clearly told Xiang Yang and Xiaoye.

His heart was in his throat.

The award ceremonies of any film festival are mostly similar, leaving the best actor, best actress, best director, and best picture behind.

In other words, since he hasn't come yet, he is a little anxious. . .

But I didn’t expect that the award for this first method would be very interesting.

"...big-hammer! "blind-kill"!"

What does this say?
After all, it is an international film festival, and English is used, but what does this English mean?
Xiang Yang didn't react for a moment, but Li Yang and Xiaoye grabbed him and shook him.

"You have won an award!"

what?
Xiang Yang was confused, but he understood immediately.

Best Screenplay is the first award in the main competition, so...

"that……"

Although the young master was happy, she immediately thought that there might be something wrong with this matter.

Li Yang didn't know why, but he also saw something.

Xiang Yang nodded to them both.

He got up and walked to the stage.

The audience applauded, only one person was completely dumbfounded.

Of course he is Teacher Acheng.
