You Made Me a Superstar Chapter 443

   Chapter 443 The water is too deep, you can't hold it

  As the oldest and the world's first international film festival, the Venice Film Festival is not as good as Berlin and Cannes.

   Even Christopher, the jury and chairman of the Venice International Film Festival this year, was criticized, criticizing the opening ceremony and various film screening ceremonies of the Venice International Film Festival for being like a country cinema...

Attached to Venice, the water city, in order to create an atmosphere of combining "human and nature", the organizer specially invited art designers to design a retro "night open-air exhibition", accompanied by the sound of swaying water and the high moon hanging. , the misty exotic atmosphere creates a wonderful viewing experience one by one, making people linger...

It was really beautiful to think about, but after a few days of these films being shown, they encountered continuous drizzle, forcing the organizers to find a way to move some of the screening areas indoors. After going back and forth, the whole film festival seemed rushed and embarrassed. The designer was directly scolded and doubted his life...

   When the film was finally stabilized, the finale of the Venice International Film Festival Awards Ceremony had something special.

   "It's sour to the core!"

   "To engage in literature and art, to pretend to be arrogant, to be so poor that you have to eat, and even the audience's pockets are not spared..."

"International film festivals should strike a balance between business and literature and art. You can see how successful Cannes has been. It perfectly combines business and literature and art. "

   "No face!"

   Similar diatribes came just days before the opening ceremony of the Venice International Film Festival awards ceremony.

  This year's chairman Christopher's saucy operation has smeared the overall sanctity and atmosphere of the entire Venice International Film Festival a lot.

  Sell tickets!

   And it's also an audience ticket for the film festival!

Why do not you go to hell?

Focusing on the discovery of literary and artistic films, commercial films simply cannot enter the Venice International Film Festival. The purpose of the Venice International Film Festival is to make the Venice International Film Festival more and more poor. In addition, several European judges are proud of themselves, and they are picky and pointed at some commercial sponsors. Point, for fear of affecting the authority of the Venice International Film Festival, and because of the cowardly operation of the organizer's designers, this Venice International Film Festival finally made people's head hurt...

   But despite being scolded, filmmakers from all over the world still held up half the sky of the Venice International Film Festival.

  The boats on the edge of the water city were all overcrowded, and there were even some capsize accidents…

   Zhou Yang personally saw several graceful and luxurious crews rolling in the river, and finally made it quite unseemly in the sunset, and was once photographed by people...

   "Damn it, I don't even need a face, rent a venue and spend so much money!"

   "I pretend not to be contaminated with any commercial factors, but I started to sell exhibition spaces..."

   "Being a **** again and building a torii..."

   "Is this still the Venice International Film Festival?"

   The sun sets.

   Feng Kai scolded and held the bill and stood at the door of the Venice International Film Festival, feeling gloomy in his chest.

  The reputation of this year's Venice International Film Festival is really bad, not only selling tickets, but also cheating filmmakers' money.

   There are only two films in the Venice Awards Ceremony of Huaxia, but there are quite a lot of films invited to participate in the exhibition. In half a month, according to rough statistics, there are nearly 20 Chinese films released.

   In these more than 20 movies, although the quality is online, the content is uneven, commercial, literary, BL, and even some banned movies that Zhou Yang has never heard of...

   All kinds of movies are available!

Um…

   The so-called invitation is actually a pretense. Basically, the money is spent internally, and the money is still a lot, and it is in units of millions of dollars.

Feng Kai's "Jin Yi Wei" has a good reputation in China, but in the West, especially the Venice International Film Festival, which focuses on the field of literary and artistic films, it is not very popular. This time, I spent one million US dollars to buy a part of the film. I plan to I managed the Western market well, but after the filming of "Jin Yiwei" was all over, not a single film maker came over, and there weren't even many viewers...

   "Invited Screening" is very different from normal screening.

Not only is the schedule of the film relatively underworld, but the screening place is far away from the screening area. Basically, the title of "invited" screening is used, and you are left to fend for yourself. At first, there were some people, but then more and more people. The less, all were attracted by the normal screening area on the other side.

   Insiders of the film festival, and even many judges do not admit that these "invited" films are related to them!

   This gave Feng Kai an inexplicable feeling of being cheated.

   But other directors are very excited, especially some directors just after the lifting of the ban, they took their films to the Venice International Film Festival, and they were also immersed in the dream of international directors.

   Of course, there are some advantages to invited films, that is, each film can have red carpet invitations and admission tickets to the film festival…

This makes many actresses who dream of international dreams are collectively happy, and they show up on the red carpet in fancy dresses. You three seven twenty one, all kinds of scratches and gestures, can't wait to let the photographer put the camera on their chest, and have more fun.

   "Wow! President Zhou!"

   "Wow, Mr. Zhou, can we take a photo together?"

   "Mr. Zhou, my name is Han Yaya, I'm a singer, I adore you very much..."

   "Mr. Zhou..."

  Before the red carpet, Zhou Yang saw a lot of speechless things.

   After seeing him, countless Chinese actresses, as if seeing some sweet pastry, posted them collectively, wishing to squeeze Zhou Yang down with those proud places.

   Zhou Yang was very embarrassed, tried to keep a distance from himself, and hinted that he didn't like it, but he couldn't hold back the enthusiasm and unrestrainedness of these people...

  Especially when walking the red carpet, Zhou Yang even felt that his body was not his own...

   This buddy Zhao Zhen is even worse. The influence of the movie "The Lighthouse by the Sea" is really too great. Not only many Western actresses, but even many male stars also post here...

   "Mr. Zhou, I was kissed by that black..."

   "Sigh!"

   "I suddenly don't want to make that movie anymore..."

   After walking the red carpet, Zhao Zhen ran to the bathroom immediately, and when he came back, his stomach was still tumbling, obviously frightened.

   Zhou Yang smiled bitterly, but did not speak, but walked towards the award ceremony hall.

   This circle seems to be like this. Everyone is trying to gain a position in various ways, trying every means to build relationships. The competition is as cruel as the battlefield full of gunpowder smoke in ancient times.

   After he was seated, Zhao Zhen was even more crowded. Countless producers and directors surrounded Zhao Zhen and surrounded him like a superstar, making Feng Kai jealous for a while.

   "Zhao Zhen is a big name in the circle... I heard insider information from Christian, Zhao Zhen is very likely to win the grand prize. Damn, shouldn't he be the best actor!"

   "No, I think it should be the best newcomer... Zhao Zhen is a newcomer at the Venice International Film Festival..." Next to "Infernal Affairs", Li Qiang, the head of the post-production group wearing a Rolex and dressed like a dog, shook his head.

   "The Best Newcomer Award is also awesome, this is the Grand Prix in the main competition unit!" Feng Kai stared at Zhao Zhen, who was surrounded by him, his eyes were bleeding.

"Director Feng, what if the best actor is Mr. Zhou? What if the best newcomer is Mr. Zhou? Mr. Christian, one of the judges, has a very good relationship with Mr. Zhou, and it will be slightly inclined... And our "Infernal Affairs" "But there are many Asian movie stars, Liu Hua, Zeng Jiabao..."

   "Yes! I've been hearing about "The Lighthouse by the Sea" in Venice recently. I've heard so much that my ears are getting calluses..."

  Feng Kai turned to look at the crew of "Infernal Affairs" next to him.

   After seeing those people, Feng Kai's mood was still quite complicated.

  The last time he had this expression was when Zhou Yang was awarded the prize in Berlin...

   That time, he was a supporting role in front of the TV.

   This time, it was a little better. With the qualification of "invitation to show", he came to the scene and sat in a relatively front position.

but…

   is also a supporting role who witnesses others.

   Not far away, Liu Hua heard someone mentioning him, so he looked up and looked around, and then sat back on the chair.

   Senior Zeng Jiabao patted his shoulder...

  Liu Hua, as the king of heaven, has experienced the era of the three kings of Hong Kong fighting for hegemony, seen strong winds and waves, and praised the three-dimensional artist of film and television songs. He should have been peaceful, but at this moment he seems a little nervous.

these years…

   His acting skills have always been criticized.

  Although he has been nominated for many times by the Academy Award Best Actor, and he has also won an award in the Millennium, he has been ridiculed by the outside world and major media as "the best actor in the millennium" and "the beginning of the collapse of the Hong Kong film industry"...

  When he took the actor, he didn't take these rumors to heart at all, and he was always immersed in the joy of success.

But as Xiangjiang movies started to get worse and talents continued to flow out, these rumors began to become mainstream speeches, and even many movie critics began to feel this way. Affected by it, it seemed that he took the blame for venting his anger. The award-winning movie "Future Man" has been filled with all kinds of bad reviews!

This made Liu Hua so angry that he didn't know what to say. The whole person fell into depression for a while, and he has been eager to prove himself all these years, but many things are like this. The more you prove yourself, the more pitiful you become. Film, although the influence in Huaxia still belongs to the top-level predecessors, but the whole person seems to be nailed to the pillar of shame...

   He was invited to appear in "Infernal Affairs" just to prove his...

   Although Zhou Yang is young, his resume is very amazing, especially in the area of ​​international film festivals, he can hang some old-fashioned artists in the Chinese coffee shop.

   At the age of twenty-six, he participated in four international film festivals.

  Two Cannes, one Berlin, one Oscar!

   has won twice, and the Oscar-level awards ceremony has won the best screenwriter award.

   Why don't you follow Zhou Yang?

   This time, "Infernal Affairs" really won the nomination award!

   And there are a lot of nomination awards.

  Best Screenplay Individual Award, he and Zhou Yang won the Best Actor Award at the same time…

  Three nominations!

  You must know that this is the Venice International Film Festival!

   Among the three major European film festivals, the film festival with gold content ranks first!

   Thinking of this, Liu Hua and Liu Tianwang, who is in his forties, stared at the big screen again, and his nervousness deepened a bit.

   Immediately after that, he looked at "Night Walker" on the other side.

   Li Yaozong Li Tianwang of "Night Walker" is also sitting not far away...

   "Nightcrawler" also received several nominations, even for awards like the Silver Lion for Best Director.

   During the period when the three kings were fighting for hegemony, his appearance and acting skills were not as good as that of Li Tianwang, his singing and dancing skills were not as good as Guo Tianwang.

  Compared to Liu Hua's bad luck, Li Tianwang definitely got the script for the male lead. He won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor not long after his debut, and the second movie "Homecoming at Night" won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor...

   Several times Liu Tianwang has become the background board at the award ceremony, watching him on stage to accept the award.

   This time, it won't be...

   The awards ceremony scene was very noisy.

   In the hustle and bustle, Zhou Yang's expression remained calm. Although it was the first time to come to the Venice International Film Festival, many things were very novel, but he didn't feel much excitement.

  Since the "Struggle" escape, Zhou Yang's mood has never been more peaceful. Today, he is very satisfied and wealthy, and he does not have a particularly strong desire to compete. It doesn't make much sense for him to win awards or not.

   Just as the awards ceremony was about to start, Zhou Yang felt a familiar figure approaching.

   He turned his head, but saw that the figure was Song Yiyi.

   "Mr. Song, you... I thought you weren't coming..."

   "It's too early, there's too much media, I'll come when there's less media, less crowded..."

"Oh."

  “Zhou Yang…”

"what?"

"nothing."

   After Song Yiyi sat down, she glanced at Zhou Yang and seemed to hesitate before she finally shook her head, turned her head and looked at the big screen in front of her calmly.

   Zhou Yang looked at Song Yiyi suspiciously, he always felt that Song Yiyi seemed strange.

   Zhou Yang didn't think about what was going on when he saw a familiar figure walking over.

   "Director Zhou..."

   "Director Jiang, hello..."

   "Director Zhou...I..."

   "Director Jiang, what's wrong?"

   "It's nothing, it's fine, it's fine..."

  Django hesitated for a moment, his face flashed a bit of hesitation, and finally nodded again, returning to the position of "Nightwalker".

   Zhou Yang frowned as he looked at Django's back.

   I don't know if it's an illusion, but he feels that Django has changed a lot. He seems to have matured a lot, and he's a little less hostile to himself, but he seems to be a lot haggard...

   When he was sitting in his seat, Zhou Yang found that Django hadn't talked to Li Tianwang and his group. He looked alone, as if separated by a transparent horizontal membrane.

"Xiao Zhou…"

"what?"

   Zhou Yang turned his head again, saw another figure walking over, and patted his shoulder.

   "Listen to Uncle's advice, the water of superheroes is too deep, you can't control it... Don't make any "Spider-Man"... This is not a movie you can make now..."

   Zhou Yang turned his head and saw Zhou Yilin, who he hadn't seen for a long time, came over. The first sentence was sincere.
