Entertainment: God-level director

After negotiating the first-round broadcast rights on the TV station, Wang Ziwen started negotiating for network copyright without stopping.

Almost all video websites are interested in Lin Ran’s new drama.

Like TV stations, people are interested, but the high copyright fees have caused small video websites to back down.

The final competitors are Youku, Tencent, and iQiyi.

They are backed by the three Internet giants BAT, which can be said to be rich and powerful.

In fact, these three video websites lose billions every year.

Yes, each family has billions!

If it weren’t for the support of giants or the money raised from the stock market, it would have gone bankrupt long ago.

It is precisely because the annual losses are so large that the three major video websites cannot bear it, so they have joined forces to suppress actors’ pay.

In the end, the actor’s maximum salary will not exceed 50 million.

Lin Ran still did not participate in the specific conversation. In this regard, his experience was far less than that of Wang Ziwen.

But Lin Ran was not idle either.

The annual Cannes Film Festival is here, and Lin Ran took the crew of”I’m Not the God of Medicine” to the screening to promote

“Director, if our film registers for the competition unit, it should be shortlisted, right?”

On the plane, Zhang Yu asked

“It may be possible to be shortlisted, but it is almost impossible to win the award.”

Lin Ran said:”Because in the eyes of the judges at the Cannes Film Festival, the ending of our film is too politically correct.”

“What about domestically?”

Wang Chuanjun asked expectantly.

In this movie, he made a lot of sacrifices in order to play the role of Lu Yiyi well.

This is not only to get rid of the magical label of Guan Gu, but also to win a few awards to prove himself. acting skills

“It is very possible in China, where the subject of the God of Medicine is already very sharp. Lin

Ran said with a smile.

“Ranzi, do you still remember the bet between us?”

At this time, Xu Zheng said

“of course I remember. Lin

Ran nodded and said confidently:”Brother Zheng, just wait and win the prize.””

Everyone talked and laughed for a while, and then settled down, either sleeping or watching a movie.

More than ten hours later, everyone finally arrived in Cannes.

When a group of them walked out of the airport, they were instantly surrounded by a group of reporters.

It was absolutely amazing. Naturally, most of them are reporters from major domestic media, but there are also some foreign media.

After all, Lin Ran’s”Genius Gunslinger” sold very well in many regions in Asia.

And”The Wandering Earth” although the overseas box office combined It only cost more than 10 million U.S. dollars, but this movie set a box office record in domestic film history and was reported by many foreign media.

“Director Lin, why didn’t your new film participate in the competition and just come to the screening? Is it because you know it won’t win?”

“Director Lin, when will”Star You” be scheduled to be released?”

“Teacher Xu Zheng……”

Reporters kept asking questions.

Lin Ran and his group were all experienced and did not stop to answer, but answered as they walked.

And they only answer questions that are easier to answer. Those questions that are always trying to make big news are simply ignored.

Even so, it still took him seven or eight minutes to get rid of the reporters.

After arriving at the reserved hotel and settling in, everyone in the crew went about their activities. This time, several leading actors from the crew also followed.

Except for the screening of”The God of Medicine” tomorrow afternoon, which they have to attend, the rest of the time they will act independently and run their own schedules.

This year marks the 70th anniversary of the Cannes Film Festival. The organizers made it very grand and invited many big-name stars and crews to the event.

In addition, many film events will be held.

For example, the Domestic Film Foundation will hold a series of activities such as more than 20 themed forums, filmmaker meetings, and master classes in the China Pavilion. Stars who attended the film festival will be invited to participate in each event.

“Lin Ran, what are your plans for the afternoon?”

Tong Liya came to Lin Ran’s room and asked

“I’m going to the premiere of”Under the Peony Flowers”, how about you?”

“I don’t have much activity, I just went to the beach to take some photos”

“Then go take pictures and pay attention to safety”

“Well, remember to call me after the event is over”

“OK Lin

Ran nodded, put on a formal suit, and then headed to the movie theater.

When Lin Ran arrived, reporters from hundreds of media were already surrounding the red carpet.

The director of this movie is Sonya Coppola. The starring role is Nicole Kidman, who has been shortlisted for this year’s main competition, and is also a big hit, so it has attracted much attention from the outside world.

“Who is this Asian star?”

“do not know”

“Haha, I guess you’re here for the red carpet again.”

“Asian stars love nothing more than walking around on the red carpet. They are so annoying. They walk on the red carpet as slowly as a turtle. Every time they take a step, they want to stop for half an hour.”

“Hahaha.”

After the reporters saw Lin Ran walking on the red carpet, they immediately put down their cameras and started talking about it.

However, it was not a discussion of interest, but full of disgust.

In fact, many domestic stars would do this every time For a large-scale film festival, no matter whether there is a film or not, everyone will go to the show and go to various red carpets.

But if you look carefully at these red carpet photos, the foreign media reporters either point the lens at other people or put down the camera, and they are simply too lazy to do so. But our celebrities don’t care about this, because they brought their own photographers.

After taking the photos, they refined them and then published them in the country.

These reporters obviously regarded Lin Ran as a He was a celebrity who came to the red carpet, so he was full of disdain.

Lin Ran didn’t know this. He was invited to attend by Zhen Fan, President of Universal Pictures Greater China.

Yes,”Under the Peony” is also a Universal Pictures movie. Lin

Ran was not interested in the red carpet. He almost walked through the red carpet as quickly as possible. When he arrived at the movie palace, he actually saw Fan Ye.

“Director Lin, you were also invited to attend the premiere of”Under the Peony Flowers”.”

Fan Binbin obviously also saw Lin Ran at a glance, and immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.

“Well, Binbin, you are here too”

“I am a judge this year and was invited by Miss Coppola to attend.”

Fan Binbin said with a smile.

Lin Ran was surprised. He didn’t expect that she was still a judge at the Cannes Film Festival this year, and she didn’t just come to visit the red carpet.

At this time, Sofia Coppola and the leading actors of the crew came over.

Fan Binbin introduced:”Sofia, let me introduce to you. This is the famous Chinese director Lin Ran. His film”The Wandering Earth” took in $600 million at the box office in China, setting a box office record.”

“Lin Ran?”

Sofia Coppola felt that the name was somewhat familiar, and couldn’t help but look at Lin Ran carefully.

“Miss Coppola, when I was a senior directing student three years ago, I came to Cannes with my graduation film”The Tuner”, and you were a judge for that session. Lin

Ran said with a smile.

“Oh, yes, I remembered that your graduation work also won the short film Palme d’Or, and I voted for you at that time.”

Sofia Coppola recalled it, and then sighed with emotion:”I didn’t expect that in just three years, you have achieved such great achievements.”

“Kudos to Miss Coppola.”

Lin Ran smiled modestly.
