It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 561 The red wine glass exploded on the head!

The 69th Venice Film Festival has finally come to the last day, and the closing ceremony and awards ceremony are about to begin.

In the room, Chen Fei changed into his suit and straightened his tie, hoping to greet his moment of glory with the most perfect and handsome posture.

The assistant walked in at this time and said: "Mr. Chen, the car arranged by the organizer has arrived. It's time for us to set off."

"it is good."

Chen Fei nodded lightly, and before going out, he took a can of Red Bull from the table nearby and put it in his pocket.

Officials from Red Bull contacted him and said that a group of his extreme sports fans would be present to support him today and wanted him to respond when he walked on the red carpet.

Chen Fei naturally would not refuse.

After getting in the car, he turned his head and glanced at the seat next to him, his eyes lingering on Liu Yifei's dress for a few seconds.

Wearing a red V-neck, paired with a suspender dress, and two red ribbons intertwined at the back, the backless design is even more distinctive.

In the red carpet waiting area, listening to the sound of roaring mountains and tsunami, a flash of sarcasm flashed across Harvey Weinstein's face.

The three cars quickly arrived at the red carpet waiting area, and the crew and creative staff of "Dallas Buyers Club" filed out, waiting for the moment to go on stage.

Chen Fei understood what he meant.

Without any hesitation, he opened a can of Red Bull and drank it in one gulp!
A group of fans responded by imitating his actions.

……

"Okay, got it."

Matt Damon sitting on the other side won the Best Actor Award in Venice, and then returned to Los Angeles to win the Oscar.

From a distance, Chen Fei saw many fans wearing half-sleeves with the Red Bull logo on them. Those people were waving and cheering towards him.

At this time, the public relations manager Hattie suddenly squeezed through the crowd.

Although it has been a long time, Chen Fei still has a purple down jacket in his mind, and he can't get rid of it for a long time!

"Fei! You are the best! You will definitely win the grand prize tonight..."

After entering the venue, everyone found their respective seats and sat down safely, waiting for the award ceremony to officially begin.

A pair of gorgeous ruby ​​earrings hang from her white and translucent earlobes. Together with her bright makeup and long hair draped over one shoulder, she exudes a dignified, elegant but not seductive charm!

The other party was a senior local public relations officer. Chen Fei listened to her opinion and nodded directly in agreement.

Now that Matthew McConaughey is about to retrace his steps, it's natural to be a little nervous.

Chen Fei didn't quite understand what she meant.

A pink fist hit her arm. Although it didn't hurt, she could clearly feel Miss Liu's anger.

"why?"

"You're a guy who won't pick up any pot!"

Perhaps affected by the atmosphere of the award ceremony, Matthew McConaughey was a little nervous and turned to look at Chen Fei: "Fei, we have made so many efforts, we should be rewarded, right?"

"boom!"

Facing everyone's curiosity, she lowered her voice slightly and reminded: "When you walk on the red carpet later, be a little faster."

Liu Yifei nodded lightly and smiled happily: "Yes, how is it? Does it look good?"

Old Jack, on the other hand, was very calm. He was here just for fun this time and came to Venice to experience the local customs. As for winning, he never thought about it at all.

Chen Fei nodded with satisfaction and praised sincerely: "Is this the red carpet dress your team chose for you?"

Harvey liked this statement and burst into laughter on the spot.

The group of people came to the edge of the red carpet and looked around. There were already many carpet stars ready to come up and ask for photos, or use them as backgrounds to take photos.

Combining the selling price of 20,000 euros, Chen Fei made a rough calculation.

"of course."

During the entire Venice Film Festival, the organizing committee earned at least six to seven million euros just by selling red carpet tickets!

"Hahaha, this is all your dark history."

Because it was clear that many crews would not be able to win awards, there were significantly fewer crews walking the red carpet at the closing ceremony today, but the number of stars on the carpet increased dramatically!

Seeing this, several people walked quickly towards the media area.

……

"In the past two years, when the economy has been in recession, the film festival organizing committee has sold a lot of red carpet tickets to make money. We don't need to interact with those carpet stars or be their backgrounds."

Plus various brand sponsorships, registration fees and transaction commissions...

The long-lasting success of Europe's three major film festivals obviously relies not only on brand and art, but also on strong financial strength!
Soon, the staff came over and greeted them to get ready to play.

"Very good!" Chen Fei praised without hesitation: "When matching clothes in the future, try to listen to the team's opinions as much as possible. It is best not to put your own ideas on the dress."

Paul Thomas Anderson next to him echoed: "The more high-profile you show off now, the more miserable you will lose later!"

The same goes for Liu Yifei. She came here just to experience the atmosphere of the award ceremony.

"And won the grand prize? It's already great to have a consolation prize."

Even if she is nominated for Best Actress, having a nomination is already very good, and winning the award has nothing to do with her.

The awards ceremony started soon, and the languages ​​here were quite mixed. Some people spoke English, some spoke French, and some spoke Italian...

At certain moments, Chen Fei had to rely on Liu Yifei to translate for him so that he could understand what the guests on the stage were saying.

Awards were handed out one after another.

The Best Film Award in the Horizon section was won by Chinese director Wang Bin for "Three Sisters", which received warm applause from the audience.

This is a director from the Nortel Literature Department. Chen Fei's biggest impression of him is that he served as the first executive director in the movie "The Cook, the Actor, the Ruffian".

What deserves the most attention is the main competition unit.

As the Marcello Mastroianni Best Newcomer Award and Best Technical Contribution Award were successfully awarded, many people at the scene straightened up instantly.

Because in the coming time, all the awards will be very important!
"Winning Best Screenplay: Paul Thomas Anderson, 'The Master.'"

When he heard his name resounding in the venue, Paul Thomas Anderson was stunned for a moment, and then a bright smile broke out on his face!
Got a prize!
I actually won the award!
He stood up happily and ran straight to the stage.

However, at this time, Harvey, who was sitting next to him, frowned slightly.

You know, the three major film festivals pay more attention to dividing the cake than the Oscars.

And this also means that every time you get a less important award, you will be farther away from the subsequent grand prize.

Take the Best Screenplay Award for example. In his opinion, this thing is useless and not really a big award at all.

Hearing Paul Thomas Anderson's acceptance speech, Harvey calmed down a little and thought to himself: "Perhaps Michael Mann has put in a lot of effort to prepare "The Master" to win a Grand Slam this time!"

He raised his head slightly and his eyes stayed on Chen Fei in the front row for a moment, feeling extremely unhappy.

"If we find an opportunity, we must drive this yellow-skinned boy out of Los Angeles. Hollywood does not allow such an awesome director to exist!"

...

Soon, as the Best Actress award went to Israeli actress Hadas Yaron, the breathing of everyone present seemed to weaken a lot.

The host was the first to take the stage. After taking a look at the script, he said: "The next thing to be awarded will be the Best Actor Award. Let us invite the presenter Matt Damon."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of exclamation from the scene!
Many people have set their sights on "Dallas Buyers Club" with envy in their eyes.

This is actually a well-known fact. The award presenters specially selected actors from the "Dallas Buyers Club" cast. The purpose was simply Sima Zhao's intention - everyone on the street would know it!
Chen Fei noticed that Matthew McConaughey's fists were clenched and there seemed to be beads of sweat on his forehead.

After taking the stage, Matt Damon didn't say anything. He opened the envelope and took a look. His eyes fell precisely on the front row and he said with a smile: "Best Actor, Matthew McConaughey, congratulations." , my beloved brother!" Applause rang out, and Matthew McConaughey jumped up from his seat, looking excited and excited.

He first hugged, shook hands, and high-fived Chen Fei, Liu Yifei, and Jack Nicholson respectively, and then strode onto the podium.

Taking the Venice Silver Lion trophy and certificate for Best Actor from his good brother, he sincerely thanked: "Matt, thank you, thank you for your dedication and help to me over the years..."

The two first performed a bromance, and after thanking each other, they returned to the guest seats.

Chen Fei did not hesitate to praise: "Congratulations, Matthew, you deserve this award."

"Fei, this is all what you gave me. Thank you very much for allowing me to play this role. I will never forget your help!"

"Next time if I open a new play and invite you to be a guest star, don't refuse."

"Of course I won't! You can contact me anytime!"

The two of them were chatting with smiles on their faces, completely unaware that Harvey's face behind them had turned black.

The Best Actor Award is also the target award for "The Master". According to Harvey, he actually wanted Joaquin Phoenix and Philip Seymour Hoffman to win a double yolk award.

But I never expected that it would be cut off in advance by "Dallas Buyers Club"!
...

With the awarding of the Best Actor award, there are only three remaining awards: the Silver Lion Award for Best Director, the Silver Lion Award for the Special Jury Award, and the Golden Lion Award for Best Film.

In Harvey's view, he must at least get two of them, so that he can be worthy of his investment in public relations for the awards.

"The winner of the Special Jury Prize Silver Lion is: Jurisi Seidl's "Paradise: Faith"!"

Another grand prize was awarded.

For some reason, Harvey suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"The winner of the Silver Lion Award for Best Director at the 69th Venice Film Festival is: Chen Fei's "Dallas Buyers Club"."

Thunderous applause sounded again, Chen Fei adjusted his suit and stepped onto the podium.

After receiving the trophy and certificate, he stood in front of the microphone and looked at where Harvey was in the audience, with a bright smile on his face: "Thank you to the organizing committee and the jury for recognizing me, and thank you to Matthew McCone." Na, Matt Damon, Crystal, Jack Nicholson, thank you to every member of the crew..."

After his speech, Chen Fei specially added at the end: "I would also like to thank every opponent who participated in the award competition with me."

Harvey's whole fat face was twitching, and Paul Thomas Anderson on the side looked even more confused.

what's the situation?
Shouldn’t the Silver Lion Award for Best Director belong to you? Why did the flower suddenly fall into another family again? Which link did the problem occur?

He subconsciously turned his head to look at Harvey, and saw that his sponsor father had a dark face at this time, and there was also unconcealable doubt and confusion in his eyes.

Until Michael Mann came on stage and announced that the winner of the Golden Lion Award for Best Picture was also Chen Fei and "Dallas Buyers Club", Harvey suddenly panicked!
It was supposed to be a sure win, but in the end it only won the Best Screenplay award.

Which step did the problem occur?
Years of success have made his mentality inflated to the extreme. He feels that as long as he takes action, no matter which award he wins, he will definitely win it!
But today he discovered that he had actually fallen into trouble!

It seems that starting from last year's Oscar ceremony, every time he competed with Chen Fei, the final result was that he lost completely...

Suddenly, he was robbed by Chen Fei!

Harvey's eyes suddenly turned sharp.

He can't continue like this. If he loses again, his prestige at the Oscars and major film festivals will be gone.

This is a situation he doesn't want to see, and it is also a situation that absolutely cannot happen!
……

After the award ceremony, the film festival organizing committee specially invited many winners and guests to attend the closing ceremony.

As the winner of this year's Venice Awards for Best Director and Best Film, Chen Fei was naturally one of the highlights at the reception.

Except for Chen Kexin, several other judges came over to chat with him and toasted to him as a sign of friendship.

During the award evaluation period, they were the judges, and they were the ones Chen Fei needed to publicize and win over.

But when the award selection was over, Chen Fei was "God" in their eyes!
Whether it is awards, qualifications, or box office results, his achievements completely overwhelmed all directors and producers on the scene.

Chen Kexin stood far away, wanting to come up and say hello, but she couldn't keep her face away.

The two of them used to fight each other so hard, and now asking him to subdue and fawn over Chen Fei is no less than a slap in the face!

In the end, he chose to turn around and leave.

Huaxia Star offered him very generous terms. Since he was unwilling to reconcile with the mainland film and television industry, he had no choice but to seek refuge there.

But at this moment, Harvey suddenly walked over, staring at Chen Fei fiercely with a pair of gloomy eyes, and did not move away for a long time.

Chen Fei had a smile on his face, but the words he spoke pierced his lungs: "Good evening. The defeated general came with great momentum, but returned disappointed and covered with scars."

Harvey's eyelids trembled, the corners of his mouth twitched, his fists clenched, and rich anger rose crazily in his eyes!
A waiter happened to be walking by, holding a tray with two glasses of Bordeaux wine as red as blood on it.

Harvey reacted very quickly, stretched out his big hand like lightning, grabbed a glass of red wine, and threw it at Fade Chen's face without hesitation.

Anger has completely filled his mind. He has only one purpose now, and that is to make Chen Fei look ugly and humiliate him under the gaze of many people!

However, what he didn't notice was that after seeing his actions, the smile on Chen Fei's face became brighter.

As soon as the spilled red wine left the glass, before it reached his face, he had already predicted it and easily dodged it.

While taking a step to the right, Fade Chen grabbed another glass of red wine from the tray held by the waiter and threw it at Harvey's head without hesitation.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the red wine glass exploded on Harvey's head, and bright red wine dripped down, even mixed with the smell of blood.

"what!"

Harvey let out a scream, his free hand subconsciously raised to cover his head, and he hurriedly backed away, shouting: "Bodyguard! Bodyguard!"

Two men in black rushed up, blocked him behind, and looked at Chen Fei warily.

The scene was already in chaos, and everyone at the reception was stunned!
No one expected that these two people would take action directly in public.

However, the final result surprised many people.

It was obvious that Harvey was the first to throw red wine at Chen Fei, but in the end it was he who was unlucky.

Chen Fei, on the other hand, was elegantly taking a towel from the waiter's tray and wiping the red wine stained on his fingers.

As for the glass of red wine that Harvey threw at him, he easily dodged it and landed on the head of an unlucky guy.

"Hit him!"

Harvey was still shouting crazily, with a look of pain on his face, and scarlet blood oozing from his fingertips.

The two bodyguards did not take action. After all, their mission was only to protect their employer, not thugs.

What's more, they didn't dare to take action against Chen Fei.

It's not that I'm afraid of the consequences, it's just that I can't beat it...

The man in front of me is the global spokesperson for Red Bull Extreme Sports. He has climbed Mount Everest without oxygen and challenged the Mariana Trench alone.

Such a ruthless person is not something the two of them can fight against.

The newly appointed chairman of the organizing committee, Alberto Barbara, almost rushed to get in between the two!
The old man, who was 62 years old this year, was breathing heavily and looked around at the two people, only to find that one was bigger than the other.

This is a big deal!
Chen Fei shrugged, with an innocent look on his face: "I was acting in self-defense. Everyone around me can testify for me that he was the one who made the first move."

In just one sentence, he has already occupied the moral high ground.

If Harvey hadn't run so fast and there were no other waiters nearby, more than one wine glass would have exploded on his head.

I had been planning to beat him for a long time, and this opportunity came at just the right time.

Chen Fei only has one thought in his mind now.

Cool!
It’s so cool to ride a horse!
