Chapter 953

The historical gap of Chinese-language movies for so many years has been filled at this moment!

The persistent efforts of many generations of filmmakers have finally not been in vain. At this moment, no matter whether they like Zhang Chu or not, or who are director Xu Ji's works, they are celebrating from the bottom of their hearts.

Netizens who stayed up late to watch the live broadcast were almost in a state of madness!

"Great! Congratulations to Farewell My Concubine and all crew members!"

"I almost cried. I haven't seen this movie yet, but this is definitely a must-see work this year."

"Thousands of words, only two words can be described as awesome!"

"I'm sorry to miss out on the Best Actor Award. Their performances were definitely worthy of the awards. But Cannes couldn't give all the awards to Farewell My Concubine. In addition to giving the best Palme d'Or, he also gave the best screenwriter the best as comfort."

"This Cannes Film Festival is really perfect, it is simply a blessed place for Chinese-language movies!"

"I originally watched Zhang Chu and thought that the movie would definitely not be very good after being adapted into a film and television, but I found that the director was Mr. Xu, and the actors were all real powerful and acting. I strongly called on the managers of various theaters to arrange more films for it!"

[Farewell My Concubine Wins the Palme d'Or Award] This topic was directly aired on Weibo and Qiandu’s real-time hot search list, and even ranked fifth in Twitter’s global trends. Many foreigners are browsing this topic.

If only Chinese people can enjoy this movie, it is impossible to get the likes and support of so many people.

As a well-known American film critic said, "Farewell My Concubine may not be the best movie in China, but it is definitely one of the best movies!"

This sentence sounds a bit confusing, but it is actually quite easy to understand.

Everyone has different appreciation tendencies. No work can be recognized by everyone. It is said that it is the best movie.

But one of the best movies can have many!

Zhang Chu didn't know what to say, but the movie finally did not disappoint his expectations and successfully took the lead in the Cannes Film Festival where heroes gathered.

The success of the previous life is not 100% restored after changes in this life, and they should have their own advantages and advantages from the original movie.

It seems that even if a world has changed, excellent stories will always stand out!

"It's good that I didn't take any photos. I didn't expect that I could get a prize because of this compensation mentality. It's really rare."

The Cannes organizing committee cannot give the Palme d'Or for "Farewell My Concubine" and then bring out the jury awards or the best actors and actresses. More than 20 excellent movies are hungry birds, and there are few feats like the Oscars that win twelve or three awards.

Before he could get over his excitement, he immediately found a picture of Mr. Zhang Xu holding the Palme d'Or trophy and posted it on his Weibo: "I'm sorry that I didn't witness history with the crew. Thank you to all those who have contributed to "Farewell My Concubine". Without you, such an excellent movie would not have been born. Our national treasures and our history are well-known to foreigners at this moment. I hope that more and better Chinese-language films will lead our culture abroad in the future!"

When most people are still asleep, a small number of p-picture masters in the night owls who stay up late have already started working silently. The first popular comment on Zhang Chu's Weibo is a picture.

In the picture, the master pranks Zhang Chu's grinning avatar on the photo of the crew of "Farewell My Concubine" collectively taking the stage to receive the Palme d'Or. "I helped you realize your wish, I'm not grateful."

This picture looks very funny, and Zhang Chu's head seems out of place, just like many students who missed the photo in their graduation photos were pried in, with only one head floating in the air.

Of course, Nanhai Publishing Company will not miss this opportunity to promote the work. "Congratulations to "Farewell My Concubine" for becoming the first Chinese-language film to win the Palme d'Or. Congratulations to the original author Zhang Chu for successfully winning the Best Screenwriter Award. Now forward this Weibo post, and 10 lucky readers will be awarded a hardcover version and a premiere ticket!"

As publishers, of course, they hope that the more popular the movie, the better the classic one, the better.

In this way, the original work can complement the movie. As long as it still has a name in the history of film, it will not be drowned in the vast sea of ​​books.

If you don’t hurry up and promote it, when will you wait?

It is a god-given opportunity, and you can directly announce the printing, otherwise all bookstores and online bookstores will definitely restock their goods quickly.

The fastest one is Dangdang.com. The original slogan of "Farewell My Concubine" was "Zhang Chu's masterpiece", but now the suffix has been immediately changed to "The original Cannes Palme d'Organ movie", so that it can quickly gain popularity.

As early as in the emotional classification, "Farewell My Concubine" has risen. Now, physical stores have closed in the middle of the night. Of course, those who want to buy books are orders at the online bookstore to buy physical books. Those who are more impatient should simply buy e-books!

Similarly, in the category of "Farewell My Concubine", the sales of "Farewell My Concubine" has also successfully surpassed the rest of Zhang Chu's works this week.

You should know that "Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Ancient City of Jingjue" has started to bombard the promotion, stills, trailers, and behind-the-scenes footage of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" before it was released, and the actors have worked hard to show up on various variety shows for promotion.

Originally, it firmly ranks first in the original film and television category, but was surpassed by "Farewell My Concubine"!

The effect of the Cannes Film Festival is too strong.

There is a big difference between going there for a screening and winning the highest award.

Even people who don’t know the entertainment industry know that the value of the Cannes Film Festival is about the same level as the Oscars.

Of course, Nanhai Publishing Company is so happy that it is hard to stop. The original works of the two movies are produced by their company. Whoever is the first is not the first, it’s better to take out quickly anyway!

Gu Xinxue knew very well that although he did not achieve a good start this year, Zhang Chu's book "The Forest of Norway" was not particularly strong, but fortunately, "In the Name of People" and "The Lord of the Rings" later stopped the decline.

Now there are two more old books that keep recovering. The sales in the first half of the year are even higher than last year's "Ghost Blows Out the Light" and "Soushen Ji"!

What's more, Zhang Chu has already written "The Lord of the Rings 2" and "The Lord of the Rings 3". The subsequent content of "The Ghost Blows the Light" will be published in the second half of the year. The sales of a single piece may not be as good as "The Da Vinci Code", but there is obviously a great chance of winning when fighting in groups.

This year's year-end bonus will definitely be generous, and the employees are much more enthusiastic when working.

Chris has been paying attention to the situation of the Cannes Film Festival in the hotel. When he saw Zhang Chu win the awards separately for his movies, he felt obviously relaxed.

He murmured to himself: "It seems that this young man has a good time writing scripts. He is about to get a screenwriter grand slam at a young age. At that time, he has to use the script for "The Lord of the Rings" as a reference!"

Hollywood film companies are not small workshops in China. It is impossible for an original author who has never mastered a commercial blockbuster to be the screenwriter. Warner's "Where Are the Fantastic Beasts" series is to let the original author JK Rowling be the screenwriter. As a result, the box office and reputation of each movie are declining.

As it turns out, she is an excellent writer, but not an excellent screenwriter.

If you rashly let the original author be a screenwriter, it is very likely that the situation will arise is that you want to say everything, but you don’t say anything well.

Many companies will specifically restrain the author when purchasing film and television copyrights. In the negotiations with Hanlin Culture, Chris noticed that Zhang Chu only wanted a decision-making power, but only made the decision and did not require himself to participate.

Since he has decided to accept those terms, Chris is not worried at all now and is ready to enjoy the beauty of life.

As a gold medal producer at Universal Pictures, he has actresses who take the initiative to throw themselves into their arms in any country, just to have the opportunity to play a small role in Hollywood movies.

Usually, Chris will not refuse such a deal that you are willing to do.

However, the metoo movement is going on vigorously now, and he doesn't want to affect the rest of his life because of the romantic moment this night.

So he was not prepared to find Chinese actresses, and was prepared to go to the bar to look for them. His friend Rodney had specially taught this content, and if he did nothing, there would be a beautiful woman to chat with him.

...

The sound of vibrating mobile phone kept coming from my ears. Zhang Chu closed his eyes and reached out to fumble, pulled out the charging cable of the phone, and then skillfully found the lock screen key and pressed it.

The world suddenly became clear, and he quickly retracted his hand into the quilt and continued to sleep.

The live broadcast of the Cannes Film Festival last night did not end until 2 a.m., and then he was watching domestic and foreign news and responding to friends' congratulations, which delayed his sleep time.

Usually he would get up before the alarm clock rang, and sometimes he would go out quietly in the morning to jog along Houhai.

Five minutes later, the vibration began again!

This has been repeated several times.

Zhang Chu felt that it was probably because of lack of sleep. His eyes were a little swollen. He forced his eyes to open and turned off the alarm clock instead of delaying it. He sat half on the bed and grabbed the hair that turned into a chicken coop.

"It's almost eight o'clock!"

I lie down at four o'clock in the morning, and the sleep time of less than four hours is not enough.

Just as he was about to be late, Zhang Chu hurriedly changed into his clothes, then scraped his hair twice with a comb, carried the bag on the sofa and left the door.

The first class is at 8:30 in the morning. It only takes less than eight minutes to get from Siheyuan to Yanda campus without traffic jams, but the problem is that it is now rush hour!

"It's over, I'm really late."

He didn't need to look at the map on his mobile phone and knew that the main traffic roads were definitely red and black, so he didn't plan to drive over. Instead, he quickly walked to the door of Ya'er Hutong, found a shared bicycle and started stepping on it quickly.

Fortunately, I am young now and can still exercise if I lack sleep.

There are many private cars and buses now, but there are also many bicycle troops. He desperately stepped forward on the pedals, paying attention to the surroundings, and occasionally surpassing others.

In addition to waiting for the traffic light, I finally arrived at the teaching building before the bell rang, but my hair and clothes were wet with sweat!

This is the disadvantage of living off-campus. If you are in the dormitory, it is more than half an hour, and it is even time to even have breakfast.

"What did you do last night in this posture?" An Mi whispered, her smirking looked so mean.

This is probably what the rest of the people around him think. Although Zhang Chu is not that fashionable trendsetter, he is usually handsome and handsome. But today he looks a little messy, his clothes are a little uneven, and his face is haggard. He is just enjoying nightlife at first glance!

Zhang Chu wiped the sweat from his forehead with a tissue: "I watched the Cannes Awards live broadcast until very late yesterday. The alarm clock didn't wake me up in the morning. I was really riding a bicycle all the way. No, give me your water cup and my throat was almost smoking."

He didn't care much about anything. He picked up the water cup that An Mi handed over, poured it into his mouth in the air, and then swallowed it in big mouth.

"I thought you were not here to school today. You won the Palme d'Or for your work, so why don't you celebrate it?"

The professor above was looking for today's courseware in his USB flash drive. Zhang Chu breathed and explained: "There is a celebration meeting, probably after the crew came back from Cannes, otherwise there would be no trophy, so how can I celebrate it?"

No matter what the sense is, there must be celebration meetings, which is an excellent promotion opportunity for the film.

An Mi wanted to ask something more, but the teacher had already started teaching and had to keep the questions in his heart.

The pseudo-school master Zhang Chu quietly took out the phone he put in his backpack. He felt a vibration when he was riding, but he ignored it.

Now I found that there were several phone calls from the agent Zhou Kang and WeChat. Maybe after I found that no one answered the phone, I sent it > "Global has already let go. Chris has confirmed that the contract subject is fine. Now we are discussing more detailed content. You can come to the company directly after class is over. We will ask the legal department to start reviewing the specific content of the contract."

Unexpectedly, the end of the Cannes Film Festival also made the people of Universal Pictures nervous. Originally, Zhang Chu was already a dazzling piece of jade, but now the Cannes Film Festival has polished it more and more refined.

Although the winner was "Farewell My Concubine", anyone with discerning eyes knew that it was adapted from Zhang Chu's original work.

Since this book can win the Palme d'Or, the remaining quality will obviously not be too bad. What's more, Disney and Warner Bros. have already filmed the other two, and now only "The Lord of the Rings" is still famous!

In order to avoid the long and long dreams of Chris, after a night of love, he still had enough energy to handle the content of the contract, which is indeed a bit amazing.
Chapter completed!
