The enthusiasm of the people made Su Li suddenly dragged into a chattering world. His eyes were full of foreigners who looked different from himself, and all his hearing was incomprehensible. Occasionally, there were a few words in English that Su Li didn’t understand completely. listen clearly.

Su Li listened to it for a long time, but his head was dewy, so he quickly stood in a relatively safe place, then thought about it in his mind, and then said in English: "Please try to follow the order when asking questions... In addition, I may not understand your foreign language, please call the interpreter..."

It was only then that everyone realized that the scene had become a bit messy because they wanted to ask Su Li a question, and they felt a little embarrassed for a while.After adding the words that Su Li reminded later, everyone suddenly remembered that Su Li was not from his own country, and it was strange to speak to him in his native language, so it was understandable

So, everyone began to ask questions about Zuli in a somewhat hesitant manner.

They don't ask questions like what is the real ending of the movie. What people ask more is how did Su Li come up with the idea of ​​the movie.

For them, this kind of dream theory is really amazing, and the layer upon layer of superimposed dream space makes everyone feel excited, and they don't know how Su Li came up with it.Originally thought that the idea of ​​"Source Code" was amazing enough, but I didn't expect Su Li to come up with an even more amazing idea.

Such an idea was unimaginable for them, it was like suddenly finding a secret passage in a room, and the new passage made everyone feel indescribably surprised.

The first person who asked this question was a middle-aged literary man. His beard and Osama bin Laden's were similar in appearance but equally satisfactory results. He also had long hair. When I saw Su Li, I quickly responded to my uncle who was eager for knowledge, and asked Su Li: "Director Su, hello, I would like to ask, where did the strange idea of ​​"Inception" come from? Magical dreams What did the theory emerge from? Why did you come up with such a wonderful idea?"

When he heard this question, what Su Li said was completely different from what he said to the domestic media. Here he had to fool these foreigners.After all, although the vast majority of people in the world discriminate against Chinese people and think that China is a barren land, none of them can deny that China once had a splendid civilization that has continued to this day, at least by blood.

So, after coughing lightly, Su Li faced dozens of pairs of curious eyes and said directly: "My idea comes from a famous figure in ancient China, he is called Zhuang Zhou. He is a very important thought in our country. One of the founders of the genre, he once recorded one of his own things, that is, he turned into a butterfly in his dream, fluttering, very comfortable, he forgot that he was Zhuang Zhou, and when he woke up, He doesn't know whether he dreamed that he became a butterfly, or the butterfly is dreaming that he has become Zhuang Zhou..."

Su Li froze after saying this, waiting for the reaction of the people below, and sure enough, there was an uproar soon.

"Wonderful imaginations and wonderful ideas really have their own roots."

"This is really a cute doubt, which contributed to such a great movie." Those people were all sighing, but the literary uncle just now was obviously not satisfied with what Su Li said, so he immediately asked Su Li: "Zhuang Zhou? This is really an amazing man...Director Su, can you introduce him more to us?"

For this kind of opportunity, I really feel sorry for myself if I don’t publicize it. Seeing everyone who is seeking knowledge, Su Li continued: “Zhuang Zhou’s school of thought is called Taoism, which is an important school that constitutes our country’s cultural heritage. Zhuang Zhou and Lao Tzu They are the two most important figures in Taoism. The most important word in Taoism is Tao. In this regard, as far as I know, the famous philosopher Heidegger once translated Taoism’s ideological works with Chinese scholars. The word eregns, the keyword in my mind, actually has some relationship with the Taoism of Taoism..."...

Zuli directly moved out of Heidegger. After all, Heidegger had a great influence on the Western world. In the 30s, Heidegger's thoughts were already widely known. In recent years, there has been a wave of research boom again.

Sure enough, after hearing the name of Heidegger and what Su Li said, the people below became very interested in the Taoism that Su Li said, so everyone also remembered something by chance——

"Taoism? I remembered, didn't the director of "Avatar", Carmelo Anthony, say that he adopted a lot of Taoist ideas in the movie?"

"Fantastic Taoism"

Su Li also added fire: "Yes, this is some of the roots of "Inception". In fact, Taoism in my country has a long history and a lot of ideas. I think I can often find some sounds in it. Interesting thought..."

Now he has achieved his goal, and sure enough, the people below are a little moved, they clearly know that Su Li is making use of the topic, but they always want to see the true face of Lushan.But Su Li can only let it go. After all, his film has nothing to do with Confucianism, otherwise he must promote it heavily. Now he can only promote Taoism, which is a bit regrettable.

More or less, he sensed a little bit of cultural discourse power - if "Inception" was a bad movie, no one would be too lazy to listen to Su Li's praise of Taoism, but now it's different, everyone They all felt that what Su Li said was very reasonable, and if they had time, they must study the Taoism that Su Li said.

The awards at the Cannes Film Festival did not make Su Li and the others wait too long before the real start. This year's Cannes Film Festival has a lot of powerful movies, and there are also a lot of Asian movies.

"Inception" attracted the attention of many distributors immediately after its screening. The scenes and the film's structure and plot, etc., have made the film's influence reach its peak state, although this film may not be able to Winning good awards, but wanting to get a big box office, this is already a certainty.

Therefore, many theater distributors have become very interested in Zu Li. Originally, "Inception", which was not able to tap the potential of the theater in the European market, benefited immediately, and many people came to Zu Li for help Negotiations on this matter.

Su Li himself promised some things. It's not good if you don't make money, and it's an opportunity to expand the influence of "Inception", which he won't miss.Moreover, Zu Li also met some businessmen who tried to buy out the copyright of "Inception" in his country. For example, an Englishman offered a price of 800 million pounds, which was rejected by Zu Li——If you want the copyright, you have to wait until "Inception" "After the real release

This time "Inception" is indeed a big deal. Just the screenings that have reached a lot of consensus in Europe and North America have surpassed most domestic films. This film has also created many firsts. .

So, up to now, it is not so important whether or how many awards can be won at the Cannes Film Festival. Although Su Li also wants to win a best director...but he also knows the temper of Cannes, "Inception" "Space" probably doesn't have much hope of winning such an award.

There are not many awards that he really wants to compete for now. After all, commercial blockbusters like "Inception" are not popular in Cannes, just like some popular novels are not popular in Long Kong. Everyone admits that The movie is very powerful, and the commercial and artistic ideas in it are combined at the pinnacle, which is quite precise... However, this is a big production, big special effects, big scenes, and the impression is pulled down all at once. In a sense, the Cannes Film Festival Even harder to serve than Oscar.  …

So, even though so many people have already expressed their enthusiastic pursuit of "Inception" and the young director, the jury will never be carried away by this. At the Cannes Film Festival, some purely artistic films will be very dominant , and European films will be more dominant, and French films will be quite dominant... None of these three aspects have much to do with "Inception".

So Su Li himself is relatively calm. Anyway, their goal has been achieved, and there will definitely be many people who will give "Inception" free publicity. After adding some original publicity offensives, the attention of this movie in Europe will increase. Don't worry too much about yourself.

On this day, the awards officially started, and most of the awards that were awarded later were not very important awards. After that, the awards became more and more important

Among the following awards, "Inception" was nominated twice, but none of the prizes were won, and Su Li applauded gracefully. In fact, he really didn't care that much anymore.

At this time, soon it was time for the best actress awards. Su Li saw Fan Bingbing not far away was very nervous. Fan Bingbing had no role in "Inception" and didn't even get a nomination. " received a nomination.

Fan Bingbing waited anxiously, and Su Li didn't know what to say to her, so she waited until the award was awarded. The winner was Juliette Binoche, a French actress who won the award for "Legal Copy".

Fan Bingbing couldn't hide her disappointment, so Su Li casually found words to comfort her: "It doesn't matter...it's still a long time."

"I know." Fan Bingbing and Su Li got to know each other very well after filming "Inception". Knowing that Su Li really cared about her, he said gratefully, "You might get a best actor later..."

"Actor?" Su Li smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's impossible... It's more likely that I will win the best director."

"It's true..." Fan Bingbing said: "Occasionally, I heard a few members of the jury say that "Inception" is very good, but too commercial... But, that actor..."

At this time, the best actor award is about to be awarded.
