Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director

Chapter 23 Zhou Xun’s melancholy

Oh, and there is also Wang Zhiwen who plays Lao Ai in it.

Already, half of the world in the TV industry has been gathered together.

Everyone can afford to be the leading actor in a TV series that costs a lot of money.

Seeing this, Gu Ming felt jealousy burning in his heart.

If I wanted to get these people to star in my movie, it would take a lot of effort, let alone get them all together.

Disaster!Disaster!Disaster!
On the other hand, the little master of poetry recitation.

People can do it.

To be honest, "Farewell My Concubine", the only Chinese-language film that won the Cannes Palme d'Or, made him swoon over.

No matter how you stretch your hips later.

Just relying on such a golden palm can last for at least 30 years!

"Hey, Director Gu, what are you thinking about?"

Zhou Xun saw that Gu Ming had been looking straight ahead, so he reached out and touched Gu Ming's arm.

Then he whispered in Gu Ming's ear.

"I also played the role of a blind girl in "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin", so I am quite familiar with them."

"Would you like me to introduce you to each other?"

"Okay!" Gu Ming nodded.

After getting on the plane, I discovered that the crew of Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin were also on the plane.

I just don't know what to say, so it would be best to have an acquaintance introduce me.

Especially Gong Li, I really want to make friends with him.

It's not all because I have the opportunity to cooperate with her in the future. I already have Zhou Xun, which is enough.

The key is to leave a good impression and prepare for next year's Berlin Film Festival.

Others don't know, but Gu Mingke remembers clearly that in 2000, at the Berlin Film Festival at the turn of the century, Gong Li was the chairman of the jury!

Among the three major European awards, who wins the award, especially the top prize, is almost decided by the chairman of the jury.

As long as Gong Li is willing to push hard, he can let you get the Golden Bear!
Naturally, Gu Ming would not miss such a good opportunity.

I will definitely make a film after Cannes to participate in next year’s Berlin Film Festival.

Of course you have to walk in advance.

It would be too deliberate to improvise when the other party is elected as the chairman of the jury.

"Don't give me the heroine in the next movie you promised me, but give it to Gong Li!"

Zhou Xun was really frightened by Gu Ming.

Emphasized again.

Then he took the initiative to chat with Brother Chen Kai and Gong Li in front of him.

Gu Ming joined the chat at the right time.

But Gu Ming's chat was directional, mainly talking to Gong Li.

I always thought Gong Li was a bit strong in movies before.

It was only from being so close that I realized that her figure was just right.

It's not like the white-bone spirit style that became popular in the entertainment industry later.

The whole person looks very comfortable.

It’s also refreshing to talk to.

And Gu Ming is good-looking, good at talking, and talented. His debut film won the Jury Prize in Berlin at the age of 19.
Gong Li didn't resist chatting with Gu Ming, and was even a little curious about this talented director.

The two of them were like friends they hadn't seen for a long time.

We chatted for over an hour.

Considering that going too far is not enough, Gu Ming ended the chat, leaned on the backrest and closed his eyes to rest.

……

cannes.

Strictly speaking, it is actually just a small coastal town of 7 people.

Not much of an airport.

Not to mention the international airport.

Gu Ming and the others took a flight to Paris, then transferred to Nice, and then took a car to Cannes.

The film festival won't officially start until tomorrow.

But 10,000+ tourists have already poured into this town in advance.

It looks a bit crowded.

Looking around, the most beautiful thing is the young women with hot clothes and sexy figures standing under the street lights.

They are very dedicated.

Smile at everyone who passes by.

"Look, the girl under the street lamp." "Xiao Ming, don't you go find someone to talk about life?"

Gu Ming teased Huang Xiaoming beside him.

"Are these people doing that?" Huang Xiaoming understood clearly, but he was still shocked. "They are all under the street lights. How many people are there?"

"I read a report before I came here, saying that every time during the Cannes Film Festival, thousands of professionals come to Cannes to make a lot of money, thousands of euros a night, tsk tsk, tens of thousands of dollars." Chen Kun sighed with emotion. .

Immediately, Zhou Xun, who was walking beside him, leaned towards Gu Ming.

While staying away from Chen Kun, I also disliked him.

"I didn't realize how powerful you are!"

"When I go to a city, I first see how its customs industry is, and I even check it out. Even the prices are clear."

"I saw it by accident."

"No need to explain, it looks like you are guilty."

"Haha..." Chen Kun smiled and simply didn't explain. As a man, if you don't investigate LSP's affairs alone, can you still be called a man?
I'm not really prepared to spend those thousands of euros.

After taking a brief look at the scenery of Cannes, the group returned to the hotel they had booked.

I stayed on the plane for more than ten hours and then took the car.

I urgently need to lie down now.

Anyway, the opening ceremony is tomorrow.

……

The next day, the films shortlisted for the main competition unit were released.

"Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" and "Burning" were both shortlisted.

"Shortlisted!"

"We are shortlisted again." Chen Kun couldn't help but grin.

He felt that his choice to abandon Xinbaoyuan and join Daystar was a very correct decision.

Let’s talk about movie resources.

I'm afraid Xin Baoyuan can't compare to Venus in terms of shooting horses.

"You can walk on the red carpet again!" Huang Xiaoming grinned from the corner of his mouth to his ears.

"I find your focus is a bit strange." Zhou Xun complained, but he couldn't hide the smile at the corner of his mouth.

Huang Xiaoming can walk on the red carpet, so why can’t she?
Looking at the palm trees in the distance, Zhou Xun had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Starting from making calendars, she was discovered by director Xie Tielia and entered the entertainment industry.

When he was a resident singer in Beijing, his front teeth were knocked out because he refused to accompany him to drink.

I finally got a starring role in "Suzhou River", which I really enjoyed playing, but the film hasn't been released yet.

The scene flashed back in my mind.

She really never thought that one day she would also be able to walk on the red carpet of Cannes as a starring role.

Raising her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, she turned to look at the real protagonist of "Burning", Gu Ming.

Gu Ming had already expected to enter the main competition unit, so he didn't show much expression.

While Huang Xiaoming and the others were happy, they continued to watch other films shortlisted for the main competition.

There was a Hong Kong movie called "Heaven and Earth". The name of this movie, which looked like a club, attracted Gu Ming's attention. Then he looked at the director's name.

Yu Liwei.

Impressed.

The last time I went to the Berlin Film Festival, I was the Hong Kong photographer for Jia Zhangke's film "Xiao Wu".

If I remember correctly, he was the photographer for Jia Zhangke's next few films.

This "Heaven and Earth" was screened on the first day.

Gu Ming took Chen Kun and others to support him.

amount……

how to say.

It feels a bit similar to Chen Guo's films.

Focus on the bottom.

But as soon as the director of this place focused on the bottom class, he focused on the people from the north.

The heroine usually works in that industry.

Anyway, it’s very uncomfortable to watch.

Gu Ming led his people to leave after seeing half of it.

I don’t even want to do any face-saving work.

This appearance allowed Gu Ming to find another good movie that was being screened and also shortlisted for the main competition.

"Kikujiro summer".
