Mitu washed up early after dinner, sat on the sofa with his computer, and opened the live webpage of this year's Cannes closing ceremony.

All the major awards in Cannes will be officially announced tonight, and the Six Princesses of CCTV have sent a large camera crew to broadcast the entire awards ceremony live.

The "banned backlash" group that Mitu belongs to has changed its name and is now called "Blockbuster".

As the name suggests, this is a penguin group that gathers Chen Yiming's fans, and with the vigorous MLM marketing efforts of Mitu and other backbones, the number of people has increased a lot, and now it is a large group of 2000 people.

Mitu has already watched "1951" twice in Vientiane Cinema before, achieving the achievement of contributing 3 movie tickets to the leader. Now it is the last item on the agenda today, witnessing Chen Yiming win the Cannes trophy.

Speaking of which, they can watch the live broadcast of the awards thanks to the generous donations from the sponsors of Little Days and Baseball Country.

Since 2005, the Cannes Film Festival has moved the awards ceremony to the afternoon. On the one hand, it is to repay the strong support of sponsors, and on the other hand, it is to expand its global influence and further consolidate Cannes' leading position among the three major European films.

Due to the time difference, there is a 7-8 time zone difference between Cannes and East Asia. Night here is midnight there. Therefore, East Asia has always been the worst region for selling Cannes broadcast rights.

After the award ceremony is changed to the afternoon, full live coverage of major film markets around the world can be achieved.

As for the inconvenience of watching the live broadcast in the morning over at Nuts, the proud old Europe obviously doesn't care. Who let Nuts have an Oscar of their own and Cannes can't shake it.

On TV, the live broadcast of the red carpet show had ended, and the camera turned to the main venue in the Lumière Screening Hall.

It will take some time for the awards to be awarded. Yu Lan, the host of the Six Princesses, is asking guests to make award predictions.

There were two guests, one was Ding Yu, the vice president of the Chinese Film Research Association, and the other was Fatty Jiang.

The picture was cut into two parts. The larger one showed the scene inside the award ceremony, and the smaller one was currently focused on a man in his fifties wearing glasses and combing his hair.

“What we call the Palme d’Or every day is actually the Best Film Award in the main competition section of Cannes. This award, as well as a series of awards such as Best Actor and Best Screenplay, are all judged by the current nine-member jury.

There is no clear rule for how these nine people will judge behind closed doors. Unlike the Oscars, thousands of judges will make the selection according to established voting and counting rules, and the person with the most votes will win.

Therefore, this award is very subjective and contingency. In a sense, there is no such thing as popular or unpopular, because the films that can be shortlisted are all excellent. Winning or not winning the award actually depends more on luck. "

The current Penguin chat box on the computer is a "blockbuster" management group.

The group leader [Unsuccessful Great Sima] obviously couldn't bear to hear the deception: "What kind of expert is this? It all depends on luck and the prediction is a hammer, so what's the use of him nagging me?"

[Two pairs of shoes on the bed]: Don’t accidentally hurt the friendly forces. They are obviously trying to salute our family, lest the high expectations of the people will be disillusioned and lead to the backlash of Heizi’s upper body reputation.

Besides, let’s ask ourselves, the probability of “1951” winning the Palme d’Or is really slim.Don't forget that there are a number of European countries in the coalition. If you evoke sad memories for others, you will have to bear the price of resentment.

[Eight Kings Chanting Sutra]: You have been badmouthing the film festival since its opening. Negatives do not necessarily lead to positives.Anyway, I don’t care. If the leader doesn’t get the money, you will be the loser who will fund the next team building.After I finish speaking, who agrees and who opposes.

There was a long list of approvals in the chat box. Mitu quickly added a slap-in-the-mouth emoticon after the "I object to two pairs of shoes on the bed". The following four words of objection were invalid.

[Two pairs of shoes on the bed] Try to struggle: So what if "1951" wins the Palme d'Or?
[Da Sima Failed]: Then you and I will each pay half.

[Two pairs of shoes on the bed]: Why do you have to pay money no matter you win or lose?This is not fair!

[Unsuccessful Grand Sima]: Who allowed you to spread surrender remarks in the sky? This is also the price of hating the house and the bird. You should bear it yourself.

On TV, expert Ding, who has covered almost all the awards at Cannes, finally gave his prediction.

"Although the media has been full of rumors in the past two days about "1951" being booked for the Palme d'Or, everyone now knows that Tony Tarantino's hint was actually just a congratulation and did not mention a specific award.

It sounds like Tony is particularly partial to Chen Yiming's "1951", but less than half an hour after he finished his master class, the Cannes organizing committee announced the list of invited films for the closing ceremony.

So strictly speaking, Tony's hint was only a little early. It was more of a compliment than a hint, and it had a stronger meaning of livening up the atmosphere at the scene.

If we compare the resumes of directors who have participated in Cannes, given director Chen Yiming's age and qualifications, "1951" should appear in a special section rather than the main competition section.

Taking all factors into consideration, I think "1951" will win the Jury Prize or the Technical Award.

Another possibility is the Caméra d'Or, which is nicknamed the Best Debut Director.

Although "Holiday" is Director Chen's debut film, "1951" is his first time participating in Cannes, so it is not inappropriate to classify it as his debut film. "

[General Yan]: After analyzing Datong, he actually predicted 3 results. He finished all the pros and cons. There is really no need for Ding Zhuan to study movies. Wouldn’t it be more relevant to study stocks?
[February Flowers on the River in March]: Given your seniority and age, you still can’t hide the hatred and jealousy in your belly, right?

[Bigfoot Tutu]: Don’t tell me, it’s really impossible for Yiming to win an award in China at his age. Otherwise, let’s wait and see. The Golden Crow at the end of the year will definitely not be as good as “1951”.

On TV, Ding Yu finished his prediction, and Yu Lan turned the topic over to another guest, Jiang Shuai.

Ever since that night in China, Jiang Shuai had become disgusted with Chen Yiming.

What's more, as a senior who has repeatedly failed in Cannes, he does not want to see a young man win the honor he has been striving for as soon as he debuts.

However, the contradiction is also divided between internal and external enemies. Ding Yu, who relies on his elders and betrays them, annoys him more than Chen Yiming.So no matter how much he agrees with Ding Yu's analysis in his heart, he still has to sing the opposite tune.

"Teacher Ding's opinion is very reasonable, but I think you may have underestimated the character and influence of Tony Tarantino as chairman.

I can conclude that Tony's hint was definitely not polite.

With his arrogant personality, if it were a consolation award such as the Jury Award or the Technical Award, he would not even mention it.

So I boldly speculate that this year's jury is Tony's judge, and "1951" is a strong contender for the Palme d'Or. Even if it is not the best Palme d'Or, it should at least be the second best jury award. "

The abacus in Fatty Jiang's heart was rattling.

"1951" won the grand prize because he had the discerning eye to support the underachievers. "1951" missed the grand prize because he misjudged Tony, the chairman of the jury, and it had nothing to do with him.

And by saying this, he can still earn a favor from Chen Yiming and the demon behind him.

After Jiang Shuai finished speaking, he put his hands in his hands and leaned back on the sofa. What does it mean to have an exhaustive plan?
Yu Lan had already anticipated the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two guests. Isn't this the purpose of specially inviting these two people? Only when there is controversy can there be heat.

Instead of choosing sides, she turned her perspective back to the awards ceremony.

“We see that all the guests have entered and taken their seats, and the camera is now showing the chairman of the jury, the famous nutty director Tony Tarantino.

This one is relatively familiar to Chinese audiences, Quan, a well-known director in Hong Kong.

What you are seeing now is the movie "1951" written and directed by Chinese director Chen Yiming, which was officially released in China this morning. Our station's 8 o'clock "Weekly Movie Express" program has just reported on the popularity of the movie grand occasion. "

With the end of Old Henry's speech, the awards ceremony of this year's Cannes Film Festival officially began. Under the explanations of Yu Lan and the two guests, a series of foreplay awards such as the FIPRESCI Award, the Short Film Palme d'Or, and the Golden Eye Award were awarded one after another. out.

The Camera d'Or was awarded to an Ermao director in the Un Certain Regard category. Fatty Jiang looked proud when he predicted success.

The Un Certain Regard Award was awarded to director Masamoto Anzai of Small Days. The three participating directors from China failed to make it to the end.

In fact, at today's closing ceremony, there was only one single seedling, Chen Yiming, in the three places on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Du Wenchen from Hong Kong City and Wei Minglang from Taiwan had already returned home early.

Then came the consolation technical award. In the trembling of the Chinese audience, the person responsible for awarding the award said the name "Burning Leaves".

Fatty Jiang looked calm, but he was actually panicking because according to his original thoughts, "1951" should have won this award.

So when Xu Xu announced the result, on the surface he was the victor with foresight, but in fact his mood was extremely gloomy.

The jury, the director, and the script are all what he cares about. No matter which one "1951" wins, it would not be in line with his true wishes.

On the right half of Mitu's computer, the text in the penguin group was refreshing like a waterfall. Seeing that the leader's dream was about to come true, the people who were more excited than the winner were naturally his fans.

[Unsuccessful Da Sima]: It’s stable, Duan Yining has too few roles, Liu Dongjun is too young, and the possibility of winning the Best Actor Award is too low. Whether it’s Best Screenplay, Best Director, or the Jury Award, it’s all good information.

[Nine Five Two Seven]: It’s awesome. There are only three Silver Palms in China, and there is only one Best Actor in the Mainland, and he got it 15 years ago.This time the leader really lived up to his name, and he covered Sun Wangquan all at once.

[Jiang Yan]: You are just flattering me. With the Golden Lion and Golden Bear in hand, it is not something that can be surpassed in a short period of time.

However, given the age of our leader, it is not a big problem to film another film for 30 years. It does not take more than two years to make a film. At the age of the national teacher now, I can’t even think about the achievements.

[Parking Fenglin Wan]: Why should you chase after others? Cannes is just that. Returning to China to stabilize your position and avoid being crowded out by those old guys based on seniority is the real benefit.

Awards were given out one after another.

The best screenplay award went to "Aquatic Tango".

The best actress award is a double-yolked egg, shared by Ashley Hugo, the heroine of "Stakes" and Marilyn Kristen, the heroine of "[-] Months."

The Best Director was a slight surprise and was awarded to Ferrara Belkic, the director of the Apennine film "Holiday Afternoon". She is also one of the only two female directors among the 20 films competing in the main competition.

The best actor award was a big surprise. It was Supachai Paang, the second male lead in the Tailan movie "Ann and Anna", which had the lowest score in the screening.

Ding Yu took this opportunity to popularize his respect, "Some viewers may think that the Best Actor winner is unreasonable, but this is completely normal in Cannes, because Cannes' acting awards do not distinguish between the main and supporting roles. As long as the performance impresses the judges, the lack of scenes is not a problem at all. .

Chinese director Wang Jiawei once mentioned an interesting anecdote. When he went to Cannes to serve as a judge, nine judges couldn't agree on the choice of Best Actress. The final compromise resulted in six Best Actress winners, unprecedented and unprecedented. "

Yu Lan brought the topic back, "We saw that the camera was shown to the "1951" crew. Director Chen was talking to Duan Yining and Liu Dongjun. I wonder if he was comforting the two actors who regretted losing the best actor."

"Huh? Next up is the jury president Tony Tarantino, which is interesting.

We know that there is a convention in Cannes for awarding awards, that is, the Palme d'Or is awarded by the chairman of the jury, and the jury award is awarded by the artistic director of Cannes. The order is that the jury comes first and the Palme d'Or comes last.

Whether this is a temporary adjustment or whether it is due to director Tony's personality, let us wait and see. "
