China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 154 The 23-Year-Old Veteran
Lou Ye was awakened by the ringing of the phone. He touched the cell phone on the bedside table with his eyes closed and answered the call with half-squinted eyes.

"Director Lou, the Cannes Film Festival shortlist has been announced, and a film has been selected for the main competition."

Lou Ye suddenly became energetic and asked nervously: "Is it Jia Zhangke?"

Among the four directors, including himself, Gu Changwei, Jia Zhangke, and Wang Xiaoshuai, Jia Zhangke has the most profound skills and is the most likely to be shortlisted.

"No."

Lou Ye breathed a sigh of relief and then asked: "It's not Gu Changwei and Jia Zhangke, right?"

"Yes."

Hahaha!
Jia Zhangke, you are a common man today?Wang Xiaoshuai and Gu Changwei are just mediocre. This year everyone has to look at me, Lou Ye!
Lou Ye relaxed completely and asked harmoniously with a smile on his face: "Is that me?"

"No."

"There is an extra word 'no'." Lou Ye reminded.

"Not much, it's not Director Lou, it's Director Lin Gaolin. He was selected and you can see it online."

Lou Ye's brain is confused. What's going on?
A person who is rushing to do his homework is selected for Cannes?

Lou Ye quickly got out of bed and turned on the computer to read entertainment news.

[Lin Gao was selected into the main competition unit of Cannes]

[Lou Ye failed to win the award and missed Cannes]

[Lin Gao was so upset that he went to Cannes! 】

There was a faint darkness before his eyes. Lou Ye knew the author of the report, the one who wrote [Lou Ye must enter Cannes].

The repetition is annoying! ! !

why?
Why was he selected for Cannes after two months of filming!

Wang Xiaoshuai also wanted to ask why. Last year, he was so high-spirited that he took [Rizhao Chongqing] to participate in the main competition unit, but in the end he failed to gain anything. Instead, he witnessed Lin Gao rising against the trend as a dark horse!

He felt very uncomfortable. Although we are compatriots, you are too dazzling and you will make me look stupid...

He gathered his confidence, regrouped, and filmed [Me 11], but he was not shortlisted.

Both the media and film circles said that Lin Gao was in danger this year, but he turned out to be a dark horse again!
and many more!

Dark horse?Such a familiar plot, I think I watched this episode last year.

Fuck, Lin Gao won’t win the Palme d’Or again, right?
If you do this... I will scold Chen Kaige!
Gu Changwei: "Stupid Chen Kaige, he no longer competes for awards, and he invites Lin Gao to abuse us!"

There is a reason for Gu Changwei's anger. Originally, there was no Lin Gao, but all four directors were rejected together. How good is it?

Now that Lin Gao appears and is shortlisted for the main competition, the four of them look stupid.

The more Gu Changwei thought about it, the angrier he became, and the louder he cursed.

Jia Zhangke also felt bad. He was optimistic about Lin Gao, but he didn't expect that none of the four of him would make it.

"It's so bad TND."

Jia Zhangke took a sip and filled the glass with white wine.

Lin Gao's supporters reveled on the Internet.

"Those trolls are talking! Who said Director Lin couldn't be shortlisted? Come out and apologize."

"Will Palme d'Or directors not be shortlisted? What a joke."

"I have both awards and business, so I ask you, who else is there?"

Most of the trolls lied down and pretended to be dead. A small group of trolls still said adamantly on the Internet that there was nothing special about being shortlisted and that they could win a Palme d'Or if they could.

The supporters did not observe the same etiquette as last time and scolded him back rudely.

"What qualifications do a bunch of wretches who are hiding behind the Internet and tapping keyboards have to ask for Director Lin? If Director Lin is selected, he is already very good!"

"Yes! I am very satisfied if Director Lin can be selected."

"Director Lin, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Even if you can't get anything, we still love you." CCTV6 reporter Han Wei brought the supporters' messages to Lin Gao.

Han Wei: "Director Lin, what do you want to say to the fans who support you and protect you?"

Lin Gao: "Thank you for your support and likes. I received it and was very touched."

Han Wei: "How did you feel after the movie was shortlisted?"

Lin Gao: "My mood is lighter than last year. After all, I am already a 23-year-old veteran."

Han Wei tried hard to maintain his composure, a 23-year-old veteran...

She could only say one word, absolutely!

Han Wei: "What are Lin Gao's expectations for this year's Cannes Film Festival?"

Lin Gao: "There are so many stars this year, including national treasure directors and Palme d'Or directors. I don't dare to have high expectations, just treat it as a tourist."

Han Wei nodded, his speech was very pertinent. Cannes officials even announced the "most luxurious lineup in ten years". The competition was indeed fierce.

One day later, Han Wei reported Lin Gao’s exclusive interview.

Netizens were attracted by the "23-year-old veteran" and expressed emotion:
"Director Lin's showoff is always so unpretentious and unexpected."

"The 23-year-old veteran... is about to die laughing."

"I feel angry and want to laugh at the same time."

Fan was the same at two points. She just wanted to be angry. Lin Gao was actually shortlisted for Cannes!

What makes her most angry is that the two "black-haired girls" Liu Yifei and Yang Mi took advantage of her. If her role was better, she would be able to walk on the red carpet with dignity.

Although you can walk on the red carpet even if you are invited by a sponsor, the reputation is not legitimate and the words are not smooth!
Now many female celebrities are openly and covertly mocking her for being on the red carpet in the media.

So angry!
At that time, licking him made him feel more comfortable, and this role might be his!
Thanks to their Cannes selection, the popularity of Yang Mi and Liu Yifei has skyrocketed in China, with the Baidu search index soaring to No. 6 and No. 9.

Many domestic brands are already on the way to contact the two.
His status immediately soared.

Wang Ke was very happy after seeing the news. His wife Liu Tao is currently on the set of Lin Gao's "The Legend of Zhen Huan". The higher Lin Gao's fame, Liu Tao will also get a lot of benefits.

After dark, Wang Ke called Liu Tao to share the news.

"Tao, Lin Gao is so awesome. Now half of the domestic entertainment news is reporting on him. Why is it so easy for him to be selected for Cannes?" Wang Ke said with emotion.

"Don't interrupt..."

Wang Ke was confused: "Tao, what did you say?"

Liu Tao was startled and forgot to mute his voice. He hesitated and said, "I was talking to my agent."

"Oh." Wang Ke nodded and continued chatting: "The book says that artists have very high requirements on the set. Is this true of Director Lin?"

"Ugh..."

What does "woo" mean? Does it mean yes?

"Is Director Lin very cruel to actresses?" Wang Ke asked with great interest, "Has he ever been cruel to you?"

"Ugh..."

"I guess so, the artist has some quirks, just avoid him." Wang Ke said with a smile.

"Ugh..."

"Tao, are you tired? Then you have to go to bed first. Let's talk tomorrow." Wang Ke said distressedly.

"Woo...wow."

Listening to the blind tone coming from the phone, Liu Tao spat it out, and the glistening saliva dripped down his fair chin to the floor, with a pitiful look on his face.

Lin Gao knelt down, clamped Liu Tao's chin with two fingers, stared into her weak eyes and asked, "Am I being cruel to you?"

"I volunteer..."
