Director: Female stars want to improve too much

Chapter 80 Nicole Kidman, jealous beyond recognition (please subscribe)

In 2001, a total of 54 films were shortlisted for the main competition of the 23th Cannes Film Festival, and 10 awards were awarded.

In addition to the main competition section, there are three divisions: "Un Certain Regard", "Non-Competition Section" and "Midnight Screening Section".

But the world's attention is focused on the main competition unit. After all, the "Palme d'Or" is produced in this unit.

The Palme d'Or refers to the best film.

Only one movie can get it each year.

Therefore the competition is extremely fierce.

The only domestic recipient of this award is Poet Chen, whose 1993 film "Farewell My Concubine" was well received at the Cannes Film Festival.

There is only one winner for the "Best Director Award".

1997 years.

Wang Jiawei's "Happy Together" was shortlisted for the main competition and won the Best Director Award, becoming the first Chinese director to win the Best Director Award at Cannes.

If Xing Baizhou can win the best director.

Then his reputation is as good as that of the King of Sunglasses.

This is intolerable to many people...

The key is that he is too young.

Among the fifth-generation directors in China, who didn’t come through hard work? Even second-generation poets like Mr. Chen stumbled and stumbled before winning the grand prize.

On the other hand, look at Xing Baizhou.

I started shooting my first movie in early 2000. It did well at the box office and won the Montreal Newcomer Award. It was a wild start.

after that.

He also filmed two high-grossing movies, "Unfortunate Journey" and "Lost in Translation", and made a lot of money.

Moreover, "People on the Road" also won the Huabiao Award for Best Director, which made directors in the industry jealous.

Now, "Lost in Translation" has been nominated for the main competition section of the Cannes Film Festival. Even if it doesn't win, it still beats 80% of directors.

Feng Xiaogang is very sour.

He also wanted to make some movies that could win awards, but he has struggled with commercial comedies over the years.

Let's just say he doesn't care about winning prizes...

He also covets award-winning directors.

At the "Big Shot" press conference, he outwardly congratulated Xing Baizhou, but in his heart he wished he would come back with a duck egg.

otherwise.

The box office has been suppressed, and the trophies have been suppressed. How can Director Feng survive in the directing circle in the future?

……

The Cannes Film Festival lasts for 12 days.

Except for the first and last days, where there are more activities, the rest of the time is free to watch movies.

There was a dinner after the opening ceremony.

All nominated films will participate.

The dinner started not long ago.

The crew of "Lost in Translation" were drinking and chatting with the crew of "Mulholland Drive."

not far away.

A woman in a red evening dress came over holding a wine glass.

"Hello, can I have a drink with you?" Nicole Kidman said with a smile, "I feel like you have a better figure in person than on the poster."

Xing Baizhou recognized her at a glance.

Nicole Kidman was born in Hawaii, USA, and is an Australian national. She is the ex-wife of Tom Cruise.

Yes, that’s the ex-wife.

At this time, she had just divorced Tom Cruise three months ago.

I am 34 years old this year, and I am at the peak of my appearance and temperament.

I don't know why... Xing Baizhou feels that she is more attractive than Scarlett.

He's not the only one who thinks so.

The eyes of many men at the dinner were attracted to her.

Scarlett saw this woman coming.

I suddenly became nervous.

She looked at the tall and beautiful Nicole Kidman, and her teeth were about to break: "Damn it, why is her butt so stuck up?"

Scarlett looked back at her butt, and an emotion called jealousy rose from the bottom of her heart and was about to overflow.

Xing Baizhou knew this woman.

at this time.

He was also a little surprised and said: "Tianhao, do you know me?"

Why is this woman looking for me?

But when I thought about her divorce from Tom Cruise, I understood...perhaps this woman is not going well in her career and wants to make progress? !

The two clinked their glasses.

Then they each raised their heads and took a sip.

David Lynch, the director of "Mulholland Drive" standing next to him, shook his head and sighed: "Xing is so popular with women."

Smith and others left wisely. He was left alone with Nicole Kidman and Scarlett.

Xing Baizhou knew that the woman in front of him in a red backless evening dress definitely didn't come to strike up a conversation because she thought she was handsome.

But Scarlett doesn't think so.

She felt that this woman was here to steal a man from her.

However, she had no good solution.

In terms of height, she is not as tall as the other person.

In terms of looks, she is a 50/50 match.

In terms of figure, she is even more incomparable.

Why are you comparing yourself to others? (Pinch your waist)...

at this time.

She looked at Xing Baizhou eagerly and just wanted to say: "Xing, come back to the hotel with me. Let me kneel down and serve you. I will definitely be more attentive than her."

But now the feasting begins.

There is no way Scarlett can pull Xing Baizhou away! ?

She adjusted her tube top evening gown, straightened her chest, and looked up at Nicole Kidman, who was 180cm tall...

This picture.

Like a little girl looking at her mother.

Xing Baizhou touched her head and said, "Scarlett, call me sister."

Scarlett yelled reluctantly.

Nicole covered her mouth and smiled: "Hello, little sister."

Scarlett: "Huh, I'm not a little sister! Why are you looking for my boyfriend? She only likes me."

Xing Baizhou: "???"

Look, what does this say...

Who is your boyfriend?

We just took off our clothes and hugged each other in a room. The most extreme thing was to make you kneel down and swallow. How could we become boyfriend and girlfriend?

Director Xing is a conservative man.

For things like falling in love, at least there should be a ritual!

For example, Scarlett knelt beside her legs, licked her lips and asked pitifully: "Xing, can you be my man? I want to serve you!"

Now announcing a relationship without doing anything?

Ah……

This little girl Scarlett has really beautiful thoughts!

But as a beautiful young woman, Nicole Kidman could tell at a glance that Xing Baizhou and Scarlett had nothing to do with each other.

But that's not important...

The purpose of her coming today was just to get to know this Oriental director.

Because he and Tom Cruise have been married for several years, they have basically been in a semi-reclusive state, and their career development has not been very good.

Recently divorced.

No longer covered by Tom Cruise.

There is an urgent need to take further steps in your career.

And Xing Baizhou became one of her hunting targets.

But I don’t know, who will hunt whom in the end?

"Director Xing, if I have time another day, I would like to treat you to a meal, is that okay?" Nicole asked with a faint smile.

Before Xing Baizhou could speak, Scarlett decisively refused: "I'm sorry, my boyfriend wants to travel to China with me and we can't have dinner with you."

Nicole pursed her lips and smiled.

A woman of her age can already control her emotions very well and doesn't want to argue with Scarlett at all.

She took out a business card from her chest and stuffed it into Xing Baizhou's hand: "I won't disturb your date with Miss Scarlett. Xing, I'll wait for your call at any time."

Scarlett looked at her back with a fierce look, like a tigress protecting her territory: "Oh, it's amazing how tall you are?"

……

Hotel, in the room.

Scarlett is doing squats on the balcony.

Tonight, she felt a sense of crisis.

"Humph, what's wrong with being shorter? I want to develop a curvy figure. As long as the proportions are perfect, men will like me."

Think of this.

Scarlett squatted harder and harder.

Every squat.

She even imagined that Xing Baizhou was under her...

She didn't go to the bathroom to take a shower until she was out of breath. After washing, she put on her sexiest clothes and knocked on Xing Baizhou's door.

at this time.

Xing Baizhou is on the phone.

And on the other end of the phone.

It was the divorced young woman and Australia's number one goddess who made Scarlett jealous beyond recognition - Nicole Kidman.
