Chapter 919 Cannes Bulletin [2/4

It is a very happy thing for the crew of Farewell My Concubine to be recognized by so many viewers who like movies.

Originally, Zhang Chu did not stand over and take a photo with the main creators. Who would have thought that Xu Ji would call him directly, and a crew would be complete.

"Thank you everyone, thank you everyone!"

Xu Ji led the crew members to bow to the audience, and his film career had a perfect finishing touch.

Several starring actors gathered a lot of light and cameras. Zhang Guorong and Gong Li's superb acting skills and appearance made them more surrounded. Meng Chengwang, who was previously unknown in Cannes, also attracted much attention.

This actor who has accumulated a lot of money is not quick in his acting skills with the two superstars, and he plays the role of Duan Xiaolou back to nature!

Most viewers actually don’t care about the movie script and the original work, so Zhang Chu was happy to paddle behind.

When they came out of the Movie Palace, they had to take photos and sign autographs to surround Xu Ji and the others, and there were only a few media followers on Zhang Chu.

"Do you think the movies that Director Xu filmed are far from the original novels?"

"Are you satisfied with this adaptation?"

"Did you find a substitute for the Peking Opera clips starring Zhang Guorong?"

"According to Hollywood rumors, Paramount is already in contact with you about the adaptation of the Lord of the Rings movie. So is it decided now?"

In order to get out as soon as possible, Zhang Chu simply replied: "Director Xu is Director Xu after all. This work is very good, and the actors are all great. Mr. Zhang Guorong and Mr. Meng Chengwang have no Peking Opera skills before. They both studied hard during the preparation period, practiced more during the shooting, and did not use stand-ins and dubbing."

He was a little interested in the topic of the foreign journalist behind him.

How could the media know that Paramount is in contact with him?

First of all, Paramount himself would definitely not send such messages. Even if they were stupid, they would not be stupid enough to tell their competitors the news.

On the contrary, Zhang Chu is more suspicious, so-called waiting for a price.

Gang Ramon found several opponents to bid, so that the copyright transfer fee could rise to a high level.

So he wisely did not answer this question, and planned to wait and get up to the point where he would not slap himself in the face, which would hurt!

Hanlin Culture Media misjudged the Cannes form, believing that Zhang Chu, a writer or amateur screenwriter, should be the kind that no one cares about in Cannes.

Who would have thought that whether it is a domestic or foreign journalist, the fans would be so enthusiastic, and even heard Mandarin on the street.

Zhou Kang was busy with socializing and would not follow Zhang Chu to help him block the reporter. Now the only one who can rely on is Zhang Chu himself!

I have to attend the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" banquet tonight. If I want to rest and fill my stomach, I am the only one now.

"Please let me go. I will go back to the hotel first. There will be an interview session after the screening of "Ghost Blows Out the Light" in the evening. Everyone is welcome to go there at that time."

Zhang Chu didn't care about the female star who was left behind by himself at this time, let alone Leya Seidu was not the type he liked. This French Rose looked gloomy and decadent beauty and had played the role of the Bon girl in 007.

He didn't think he could go with her by chatting for a while. He was not a master of flirting with girls.

After returning to the hotel, Zhang Chu did not go to his room, but ordered a glass of beer at the hotel's open-air bar. The sea breeze here is suitable for clearing his mind!

In the past day, I have experienced so many things.

"The Lord of the Rings" is in Cannes, and the movie "Farewell My Concubine" is very popular, and "Ghost Blows Out the Light" is waiting at night.

In this atmosphere, I had no intention of writing the sequel to "The Lord of the Rings", the Shuang Towers Warriors. This novel is about to end.

He is not a saint, and it is impossible for him to calm down after experiencing these things. Writing with an impetuous mood will only ruin it!

The palm trees on the beach in the distance are dancing wildly under the sea breeze, and the sound of waves slapping on the beach can be heard.

After drinking this bottle of beer, Zhang Chu's originally a little fluttering mentality finally calmed down.

The success of this movie has nothing to do with him. The success of the movie should not be attributed to himself. This is not a good thing. It is the most important thing to recognize yourself.

Just as he was about to go back to his room to change his clothes, someone suddenly brought a stack of magazines that had just been printed.

"Come on, the first issue of the magazine was released this year. It's free, so everyone can just watch it!"

The so-called live broadcast is a publication that is only published within the film festival and only exists in a few days during the film festival.

Half of the content is introduction and comments, and the service of the film festival; the other half is pure advertising.

Among these advertisements, there are no advertisements for Hollywood blockbusters, nor are there advertisements for top European art films, but only those advertisements that have no chance to go international.

For example, here, Zhang Chu saw the cover and introduction of "Ghost Blows Out the Light", but did not see the advertisements of "Da Vinci Code", "Pi's Fantasy Drifting", and "Farewell My Concubine". These three are not needed.

The reason why the film festival is different from the awards ceremony is that in addition to the movie competition, it is also a huge film market!

European movies, Asian movies, and African movies are all bought, sold and traded here.

The magazine is the promotion channel for these movies. Works that can be used in the Cannes magazine are either works in the main competition unit or they cost a lot of publicity.

In China, some film merchants bullied the audience and were not familiar with the Cannes Film Festival. They brag about the advertisements that they could be posted on the magazines with money, creating a sense of visualization in international blockbusters!

The reason why the media are paying attention to the magazine is actually paying attention to its introduction and rating of the films in the main competition unit. This is actually an important reference for the major awards of the film festival over the years.

Works with high ratings in the magazine may not necessarily win awards, but works with low ratings will definitely not win awards!

Considering the needs of the general reader group, the magazine does not use French, but uses English, so Zhang Chu can understand it.

The magazine is hosted by an old magazine called "Daily Screen". It will be given away for free every day starting the day before and can be read on the official website.

The above content is diverse. In addition to the process of the film festival, the specific screening arrangements and news related to the release of the film, film reviews are the content that Zhang Chu is most concerned about!

"Farewell My Concubine" has been released so far today, so it uniquely occupies all the content of the magazine's ratings.

There will be four chapters today, and 100 monthly tickets will be updated tomorrow.
Chapter completed!
