Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

Chapter 27 Winning the Palme d’Or

"Congratulations to Rosetta and Burning!"

Double yolk eggs.

Two years later.

Cannes Palme d'Or returns to double yolk egg!

But no one cares about this. The name of Cannes Palme d'Or will not be diminished by half because of the double yolk egg.

Everyone present gave warm applause.

"Clap clap clap."

There was a round of applause.

The continuous applause roughly invaded the minds of everyone on the "Burning" crew.

The group of people were shocked.

We won the Palme d'Or at Cannes!
That's right!

"It's the Palme d'Or!"

Huang Xiaoming desperately opened Chen Kun's hand, his voice was a little hoarse, "What did I say? I thought we could win the grand prize. Look, the Palme d'Or is here, right?"

Chen Kun looked at the presenter blankly, but his hand was still covering Huang Xiaoming's mouth.

Zhou Xun's eyes were already moist.

He once fantasized about winning a big prize, but that was just a fantasy.

Now, this has become a reality.

A wild man who learns folk dance.

Just relying on talent to survive in the film and television industry.

Now, the film in which she stars as the heroine has actually won the second Palme d'Or in the history of Chinese films!

"Thank you!"

"Thank you!" Zhou Xun's eyes filled with tears and he gave Gu Ming on his left a strong hug.

Gu Ming hugged back politely.

Maybe it was because of the atmosphere, Gu Ming said out of nowhere, "Quit smoking, and I will help you win a top three movie queen!"

In his previous life, Gu Ming felt that Zhou Xun was the one with the best acting skills among the so-called four major flowers. She was undoubtedly much more malleable than the stubborn Yishui character in the International Chapter.

It's a pity that compared to Tianhu's start in the International Chapter.

Her resources are far behind.

Especially Rong Xingda, who was so unspeakable in the film business at the beginning.

Later, everyone focused on commercial films, and the career of such a top-notch actor was limited to domestic awards and a little-known best actress at the Paris International Film Festival that was not even an A category.

Isn't it a pity?
"Okay!" Zhou Xun let go of his hand, with tears in his eyes, said a good word silently, and nodded gently.

"It's a word."

Gu Ming smiled, stood up and hugged Chen Kun, Huang Xiaoming and representatives from Beijing Film Studio before going up to the awards podium.

"Congratulations, Gu!" the presenter congratulated.

"Thanks!"

Take the golden palm leaf trophy from the hand of the presenter.

Walk up to the microphone.

Gu Ming's mood also couldn't calm down for a long time.

After taking a deep breath.

"First of all, I would like to thank my motherland."

"Secondly, I would like to thank every actor and employee on the crew of "Burning". This award belongs to me and to them. Without them, there would be no this film."

"Thank you to the jury for awarding Cannes' top prize to "Burning", and finally thank you to all the fans who like my work."

"thank you all!"

Finished his speech.

Gu Ming held the trophy tightly and looked at the cameras pointed at him.

An idea suddenly came to my mind.

The spring breeze is proud of the horse's hooves, and I can see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day. Isn't it just like this?

With a knowing smile, Gu Ming walked off the award podium.

As soon as I stepped out, I was instantly surrounded by reporters.

……

offstage.

The 47-year-old Chen Kai looked at him with envy, and his eyes were full of the shadow of himself when he was 41 years old.

That year, it was still in Cannes.He also won the Palme d'Or.

It's a pity that I am getting old, but others are getting younger.

Looking at that young figure.

Jealousy and hatred all swept into his heart.

Jealous of Gu Ming's youth.

Jealous of Gu Ming's talent.

I hate that Gu Ming got the Palme d'Or.

From now on, he will no longer be the only Palme d'Or winner in Chinese-language films.

"Damn it, what's the matter? I just got lucky."

Brother Chen Kai muttered and stopped clapping.

Gong Li glanced here, turned his head back and rolled his eyes.

There is a rumor in the circle.

When the first film "Red Sorghum" in which he starred won the Golden Bear, this guy took a newspaper and scolded Zhang Yimou, "What are you talking about? You're just me, the photographer."

Now it seems that this matter is not fake.

……

Gu Ming, who was surrounded by reporters on the other side, couldn't bear to feel the jealousy of a certain director over there.

He answered the reporters’ questions with a smile.

By the way, I accepted every word of praise.

"Gu, congratulations."

"Gu, do you know? You won the Palme d'Or by Steven Soderbergh with "Sex, Lies and Videotape" when you were over 26 years old, becoming the youngest Palme d'Or winner."

"Oh? Really? Then I'm pretty lucky." Gu Ming didn't swell and responded with a smile.

Nearly an hour passed.

The reporters got what they wanted and finally dispersed.

Gu Ming finally got some freedom.

After meeting Zhou Xun, Chen Kun and the others, they returned to the hotel and made phone calls one by one.

Unexpectedly, I just called my father to tell him the good news.

The father's congratulations came first, "Son, you are awesome! Palme d'Or, you have brought glory to our family!"

"Dad, do you know?"

"Of course! I couldn't sleep, so I kept surfing the Internet. News about you winning the Palme d'Or appeared on the Internet for more than half an hour."

"Sohu, NetEase, and Sina all have your news."

"Oh, that's it!" Gu Ming almost forgot this.

Online media is much faster than print media.

"Then dad, go to sleep and I'll tell the others the news."

Made a round of phone calls.

More than half of the people already knew the news in advance.

It was supposed to be Gu Ming's call to report the good news, but instead it became a call to congratulate him.

There were also many congratulations that Gu Ming could not hear.

Under the relevant posts on the three major portal websites about "20-year-old Chinese director Gu Ming won the Palme d'Or at Cannes, becoming the second Palme d'Or for a Chinese-language film."

The vast majority of netizens sent their blessings.

"Amazing!"

"I was still in college when I was 20 years old, and someone won the top three universities in Europe. My eyes were red with envy."

"I watched this director's last movie, and I thought it was good at the time. I didn't expect it to be a big deal. Congratulations."

"The second Palme d'Or for Chinese films? Whose is the first?"

"Farewell My Concubine, you don't know this? It's a very good film by Brother Chen Kai. I was shocked after watching it. Although I haven't seen Gu Ming's award-winning film, it certainly can't be compared with "Farewell My Concubine". "Farewell My Concubine"! I'm afraid it will be difficult to shoot anything comparable in the future."

"The fight upstairs?"

"Gu Ming is only 20 years old when he won the Palme d'Or. Where is Brother Chen Kai? He is almost a grandfather, right?"

"It will be difficult to make a comparable film in the future. I have watched Chen Kaige's "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" in the theater. As for his declining trend, let alone "Farewell My Concubine" in the future, he can make a film that surpasses "Jing Ke Assassins". "The King of Qin" movie, I call you dad."

"boom!"

Brother Chen Kai, who was surfing the Internet on the computer in the hotel, jumped up when he saw this comment, his face turned red, "You can't be so shameless!"
