China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 153

Sina reporter Zhang Qian glanced at the phone on the table from time to time. Why hasn't the news from Cannes come yet?
She is a big fan of Lin Gao. She likes Lin Gao's TV series and movies very much. In addition to his film and television works, she also knows that Lin Gao is really promoting the progress of the Chinese film and television industry.

[Weiwei] opened up the youth film market.

The special effects of "Star You" gave her hope of domestic special effects, and Lin Gao is also providing funds to shoot Chinese science fiction blockbusters.

Regardless of the results, Zhang Qian was impressed by her courage alone.

Such a person was scolded online two days ago. Zhang Qian was furious and typed on the keyboard to defend Lin Gao. But the person on the other end was unreasonable at all and said in Zhang Qian's face: "Come and do science popularization with us after being shortlisted for Cannes." !”

She was furious, but there was nothing she could do.

"jingle bell" "jingle bell"

Zhang Qian's eyes lit up when the results came out, but she became nervous again and muttered: "Please, please, Lin Gao must be selected..., I am willing to give the boss's entire worth in exchange!!!"

"Hey, Sister Zhang. 20 works have been included in the main competition section, and 18 works have been included in the non-competition film."

“Pedro Almodovar’s The Skin I Live In, Lars von Trier’s Melancholia, Garth Van Sant’s Restless, Nanni Moretti’s Melancholia The Birth of the Pope], Terrence Malick’s [The Tree of Life] Joseph Starr [Footnote], the Dardenne brothers [The Boy on a Bicycle], Naomi Kawase [The Moon of Vermillion]….”

So many international directors... Zhang Qian frowned.

Almodovar is a national treasure director in Spain. The Dardenne brothers were the Palme d'Or winners in 1999 and 2005. Lars von Trier was the Palme d'Or winner in 2000. Garth Van Sant, the 2003 Palme d'Or winner, 2001 Palme d'Or winner Nanni Moretti.

But that's not the point.

Zhang Qian interrupted the other person and asked: "What about China? Are there any Chinese directors?"

"Lou Ye's movie "Flower" did not appear on the movie list, nor did I see the movie "The Favorite" directed by Gu Changwei, "Me 11" by Wang Xiaoshuai, or "Hello, Mr. Tree!" produced by Jia Zhangke and directed by Han Jie. "

"Lin Gao, has [Warm Blue] directed by Lin Gao been selected?" Zhang Qian couldn't help but ask directly.

The phone laughed loudly, and Zhang Qian suddenly understood that the other person did it on purpose.

very good!

Your bonus is in danger... Zhang Qian said silently.

"Director Lin's film has been selected for the main competition!" The other person on the phone paused and said, "He's so awesome. If he wins an important award this year, he'll be awesome."

Zhang Qian looked ecstatic, she was selected!

Lin Gao lived up to her expectations. After she put down the phone, she sighed: "You can always trust Director Lin."

It would be better if Director Lin could win the award... Zhang Qian thought.

No need for the Palme d'Or, just any award will do, so that Lin Gao can move up in the rankings of Asian directors.

Although Zhang Qian accused herself of being too greedy, being selected is already very impressive. This year's Cannes Film Festival is so crowded with stars that it must be even more difficult for the two-time Palme d'Or director.

Anyway, if you are selected, you can already fight back against those bastards on the Internet!
……

Kyoto, private restaurant.

Lou Ye, Jia Zhangke, Wang Xiaoshuai and Gu Changwei had a private gathering with filmmakers in the industry.

A producer with thinning hair held Lou Ye in his hands and said, "Director Lou will win the gold medal at Cannes this year like Lin Gao last year!"

Lou Ye's face was full of smiles, like the face of Buddha in the spring breeze.

Completely opposite to Lin Gao, Lou Ye is this year's most popular candidate. Radical domestic media have already announced that Lou Ye will definitely enter Cannes.

Lou Ye felt a little dizzy while everyone was collecting firewood.

Who wouldn't be confused when you are surrounded by people who praise you?
"Not only." A tall and lanky producer said with a clear face, "There are also our Director Wang Xiaoshuai, Director Gu Changwei, and Producer Jia Zhangke."

Wang Xiaoshuai and Gu Changwei also had smiles on their faces.

Jia Zhangke waved his hand and said: "The results will not be reported until tomorrow. It is too early for the four of us to say, but Lin Gao must have entered." Jia Zhangke was impressed by Lin Gao's [Parasite]. He felt that Lin Gao was a talented director who could do whatever he wanted. will succeed.

Lou Ye, Wang Xiaoshuai and Gu Changwei looked unhappy.

To grow others' ambition, to destroy one's own prestige.

Wang Baoqiang scratched his head and said with a smile: "Director Lin is indeed very powerful. An actor like me can make a movie with a box office of one billion."

The bald producer laughed and said, "It's okay not to mention the old things!"

The lanky producer said: "The four directors were not selected, and Lin Gao is even more in doubt!"

Lou Ye and the other two were all smiling again.

……

"The shortlisted results will be out tomorrow. Is our Director Lin nervous?" Fan Liangdian's charming voice came from the other side of the phone.

"You know my gold content, so what are you afraid of?" Lin Gao said lightly.

"What's yours?!" Fan Liangdian lost his voice.

The gold content...how can it be confused with being shortlisted for Cannes?

"My strength, what are you thinking about?" Lin Gao asked angrily.

"It's also about strength!" Fan Liangdian blushed slightly and said harshly, "Then I'll be waiting for you in Cannes~"

Fan used the sponsor's invitation quota at two o'clock to lock in her attendance spot in advance. After enjoying the red carpet benefits, she still remembers it to this day.

"If you go to the red carpet circle, domestic female stars will collectively laugh at you." Lin Gao reminded.

"It's better to go than not to go." Fan Liangdian countered.

Five minutes later, Fan put down the phone at two o'clock and said to himself: "He won't really be selected again, right? He's not that evil."

She thought Lin Gao had dealt with the situation, but from the conversation's attitude, Lin Gao seemed confident, but she wasn't sure.

Her head hurt from thinking about it, and she couldn't figure out where Lin Gao got the courage.

No matter, the news will be reported tomorrow anyway, just look at the results.

Late at night, domestic media companies worked overtime to print newspapers and write reports.

title:

[The list of the Cannes Film Festival has been announced. Twenty films have been selected for the main competition, including one Chinese film. 】

[China’s only seedling, one film was selected for the main competition. 】

【Shock!Unexpectedly, he was the one selected. 】

In the early morning, entertainment news began to be pushed online, and some filmmakers who stayed up late clicked on the news.

Who is it?
Lou Ye, Gu Changwei, Wang Xiaoshuai or Jia Zhangke?
The four of us don’t know who will have the last laugh!
Everyone was startled when they saw the word "Lin Gao", and a question popped up in their minds. How could it be him?
The filmmakers really don't think highly of Lin Gao. Compared to Jia Zhangke, Wang Xiaoshuai, Lou Ye and Gu Changwei who worked hard to shoot, Lin Gao is like a person who is rushing to do his homework before the end of vacation.

How could such an attitude make it to Cannes?
F*ck, it was actually shortlisted for Cannes!

Is this talent?

The filmmakers were so jealous.

It will be interesting on the Internet tomorrow. Netizens who previously supported Lin Gao will have to settle their scores in the future.
