Rebirth of the rich and famous

Chapter 239 Cannes
Carlton Intercontinental Hotel has a history of [-] years. Many movie stars who come to participate in the film festival choose to stay in this hotel. There is a famous Cannes movie star gallery in the hotel, where many famous faces can be seen.

Song Xiaoye knew before that the crew of "Leadership" would also be staying in Carlton, but she didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.

Although "The Profit" was not invested by Huaxing, because of Qiao Xuan, Wang Peng was extraordinarily enthusiastic.At the banquet, pushing the wrong cup, talking and laughing at Yan Yan, those who didn't know thought that he and Mai Weiqiang and others were old acquaintances!

"The one shortlisted for competition this year is "Moonlight in the Dark Night". Mr. Wang and Wei Jia, our Chinese-language films are counting on you!"

Mai Weiqiang raised his glass, his eyes were still a little bit silent. Although he was shortlisted for the film festival, he couldn't be shortlisted for the competition. He still felt a little bit lost in his heart.

"Chengmai Daogui," Wang Peng smiled, and said, "Mr. Xiang of Dongfang Company, I have been friends with him for a long time, but unfortunately I haven't met. I thought Mr. Xiang would come to Cannes in person, but I missed it again... ..."

Mai Weiqiang chuckled, "If I'm also shortlisted for the competition, Mr. Xiang will naturally..."

"Ahem..." Li Huaming coughed suddenly, interrupting Mai Weiqiang's words.

Wang Peng smiled, only patted Mai Weiqiang on the shoulder and said, "I am very optimistic about Director Mai's "Leadership". In fact, I have always wanted to find Director Mai to cooperate in a film. Why don't we go to the bar to talk— —Hua Ming, together?!"

It was an open solicitation. Li Huaming hesitated for a moment, but finally got up and followed.

Wang Peng took the opportunity to recruit filmmakers, but Song Xiaoye and Qiao Xuan took advantage of the crowd to go to the bar, and slipped out of the hotel holding hands.

The Carlton Intercontinental Hotel is right next to the beach, across the promenade, there are many tourists on the beach, most of whom are beauties in swimsuits.

Cannes is a popular place for sightseeing. During the film festival, it is even more crowded. Crowds of beauties follow the footsteps of filmmakers and want to try their luck here.

"Ahhh, you are so lucky! There are so many beauties in bikinis - and they are all blond, blue-eyed, big-breasted French girls..."

Amused by Song Xiaoye's funny tone, Qiao Xuan pulled her into his arms, "With this big beauty in front of me, why would I look elsewhere?"

"Ah, that? Didn't you imply that I would also show you in a bikini?" Song Xiaoye chuckled and pushed Qiao Xuan.

"If you change it now, I don't mind! Of course, it's best for me to see it alone..." After Qiao Xuan finished speaking, he turned around and fled, barely avoiding Song Xiaoye's pursuit.

"Don't run away if you have the guts!" Song Xiaoye hurried to catch up, and after a few steps, she stopped and bent over to straighten her shoes.

"Did sand get in?" Qiao Xuan turned around and supported her, "Take it off, I'll carry you on my back."

"Really?" Song Xiaoye raised her eyebrows and looked at him, then laughed when she saw him nodding, "Don't regret it!"

"What's so good..." Before Qiao Xuan finished speaking, he felt a rush of momentum in his back, and Song Xiaoye had already used the momentum to jump onto his back.

"Like a monkey..." Qiao Xuan muttered, but bent his hand to support Song Xiaoye.

Song Xiaoye giggled, still holding the sandals in her hand, but tightly hugged Qiao Xuan's neck, "Horse—you run slower—ah, don't hit people there..."

The pretty buttocks were attacked, Song Xiaoye let out a low cry, and struggled to get off the ground.Qiao Xuan didn't laugh, and ran wildly on the beach with her on his back.

Falling forward, Song Xiaoye fell on Qiao Xuan's back, hugged his neck tightly, and buried her face in his neck.

"The horse is crazy—" She smiled lowly, pursed her lips, and blew on Qiao Xuan's neck.

Itching, Qiao Xuan shrugged his shoulders and wanted to rub it, but before he could reach it, the itchy place suddenly became hot, but a kiss fell on him.

Feeling hot in his heart, Qiao Xuan turned his head, but before he could say anything, he suddenly felt a light flash in front of his eyes.

Frowning, the two looked up and saw two Chinese running over not far away.

Without saying a word, Song Xiaoye patted Qiao Xuan's shoulder and jumped down.

"Hi, Qiao Xuan, Ye Xiao," the man with the camera greeted with a smile, "We are the special report team of 'Sooke.com', my name is Che Ming, can I take a photo for you?"

I asked after I had already photographed it.

Although feeling a little unhappy, Qiao Xuan and Song Xiaoye still nodded with a smile.

Sooke.com is one of the top three portal websites in China. It is even more impressive to send a team to Cannes to report on the film festival.

Wang Peng also said before that he would be interviewed by Sooke.com tomorrow, so Song Xiaoye didn't want to pursue the matter of taking the photo just now.

"What's the itinerary for tomorrow, well, I think it's some interviews, and then I have to do some promotional activities for "Moonlight in the Dark Night"..."

"We also saw the poster of "Moonlight in the Dark Night". Ye Xiao, the film festival will officially open the day after tomorrow. Do you think "Moonlight in the Dark Night" can win the grand prize?"

Song Xiaoye smiled, "If I were a judge, I would definitely award the grand prize to "Moonlight in the Dark Night". But now, I can only say that "Moonlight in the Dark Night" is a good movie, and I think you can come to the premiere... "

In front of the reporters, Song Xiaoye didn't dare to talk nonsense.

All the films in this year's competition are wonderful, and even several directors are winners of the Palme d'Or, who are comparable to Wang Weijia and are strong rivals.

If she talks big, in case...

"I think you all know that Ms. Ying is competing for the best actress. Of course, everyone has a chance, but I think Ms. Ying's chances should be greater! Really, her performance is really outstanding - or that sentence , you should go to the theater to see this movie."

After politely answering the reporter's question, Song Xiaoye smiled and waved, and pulled Qiao Xuan away with a smile.

The closer the opening ceremony is, the more media people come to Cannes, especially the more Chinese faces than in previous years.Although only one Chinese film was shortlisted for the official competition this year.

Since the 90s, when Chinese-language films won numerous awards at the Cannes Film Festival, Chinese people have been paying close attention to the Cannes Film Festival.

This year, the participation of Chinese filmmakers naturally attracted many Chinese media.In addition to the domestic team, there are also many media in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

On the 15th, there were two or three Chinese-language media in the interviews accepted by "Moonlight in the Dark Night", as well as "Screen" magazine from the United States, BBC TV station from the United Kingdom, and "Journal de Nice" from France, etc.

The French distribution of "Moonlight in the Dark Night" is handed over to the French Gaumont Company for distribution. At the end of the day, the film will be screened in the theaters of "europalaces", a subsidiary jointly established by two French film giants, Gaumont and EMI.

So at this year's Cannes Film Festival, Gaumont also sent a promotional group to assist Huaxing's staff in building momentum.

In addition to renting the largest billboard in the lobby of the big hotel and posting a large poster of "Moonlight in the Dark Night", there are also many posters posted on the street.

Naturally, there are not a few shortlisted films that have such publicity, and even films that are not in competition, such as "Profit" are hyped.

Because the Cannes Film Festival is not just an event, a party, but also one of the largest film trading markets in Europe and America.Every year, hundreds of films go to the global market here.

The film festival has not yet officially opened, and some American companies have contacted Wang Peng, but because the price has not been fully negotiated, they have not yet made a deal.

Although no one said it clearly, Song Xiaoye naturally guessed that Wang Peng planned to wait for "Moonlight in the Dark Night" to win one or two awards and sell it for a good price.

China Star is willing to invest in Wang Weijia to make an art film, because the art film is easy to win awards.

I just don't know if this session will go as Wang Peng wishes.

At 16:18 pm local time on the 30th in France, the Cannes Film Festival officially kicked off at the Lumiere Film Palace.

Tens of thousands of spectators gathered in front of the movie palace, and there were thousands of people from the media around the world alone.

This is the biggest event Song Xiaoye has attended so far. Although she has checked her appearance several times when boarding the Lincoln limousine, she still can't help being nervous.

At this time, she really wanted to hold Qiao Xuan's hand, but she and Qiao Xuan didn't get an arrangement to appear together here.

"Nervous?" Liang Weirong, who was wearing a white suit, looked at Song Xiaoye and comforted him in a low voice, "It's okay, just don't think that those people are looking at you, maybe—"

He lowered his voice and leaned slightly closer to his face, "You can treat them as cakes waiting for you to eat!"

"Ah—" Raising an eyebrow, Song Xiaoye couldn't help laughing.

Since her last trip to Thailand, she and Leung Wai Wing have become much closer. This time they reunited in Cannes, and they are like old friends. He is a gentleman and takes good care of her, but it is the first time that he jokes like this.

The two laughed lowly, and Ye Ying, who was sitting across from him, snorted coldly, "It's understandable for newcomers to be timid! Just be careful and don't fall for a while!"

Is this looking down on her? !
Looking back at Ye Ying's indifferent gaze, Song Xiaoye raised her head, and put aside the timidity just now.

Ye Ying glanced at her, smiled, turned her face away, and waved her hand out the window.

There were crowds on both sides of the road, and the limousine drove very slowly, but only a few hundred meters away, and it took five or six minutes.

The car slowly stopped in front of the red carpet, Song Xiaoye couldn't help taking a deep breath.

Liang Weirong got out of the car first, looked back and smiled, and stretched out his hand to Song Xiaoye.

Holding Liang Weirong's hand, Song Xiaoye got out of the car. At that moment, she only felt her ears buzzing like the wind was blowing.

However, that was not the wind, but the shouts, the cheers and shouts of tens of thousands of people—it was not obvious in the car, but when I got out of the car, I felt my heart tremble.

When Liang Weirong withdrew his hand, Song Xiaoye almost subconsciously wanted to grab it.But immediately, she reacted.

Straightening her back, she stood Tingting, smiling as she watched Liang Weirong take Ye Ying's hand and lead her out of the car.

The cheers were even louder, the flashing lights intertwined into a silver net, and many people in the audience shouted the names of Ye Ying and Liang Weirong.

That's right, both Ye Ying and Liang Weirong are regular guests of Cannes.Five years ago, Leung Wai Wing won Best Actor and Palme d'Or for his role as Xiao Die in "Farewell My Concubine".As for Ye Ying, she won the Cannes Best Actress 15 years ago, and even served as a Cannes judge a few years ago.

The three of them walked slowly down the red carpet, all the cheers and shouts were for a pair of movie kings and queens. Occasionally, there was someone named Ye Xiao who was also a reporter from the Chinese media.

Song Xiaoye was a little disappointed, but soon showed the most charming smile.

Now, it doesn't matter if no one knows her, when she comes to Cannes in the future, there will be countless fans calling her name...

　Subscription, monthly pass, the beauty is waving to my friends!
