You Made Me a Superstar

   Chapter 325 Forced

   One hundred and two years have passed since the Lumiere brothers screened in Paris in 1895 the world's first film "The Arrival of the Train", the world's first public film.

  The Lumiere Film Palace has always stood on this land, like a weather-beaten predecessor, witnessing the filmmakers who came by.

  The sun and the moon alternate, and the stars are changing.

Some people stood at the highest point of the awards ceremony with great ambition and overlooked all living beings, declaring the arrival of their own era, some people sat down and applauded, witnessing and looking forward to the day when they could stand on the stage and cheer along with them, some people regretted the ending, and finally Under the disappointment, the stepping stone for the successful person, and some people pass away, are forever fixed in the most beautiful stills.

   Zhou Yang walked up the steps step by step, watching the movies and stills, as if he had traveled through the ages, feeling the sacred and solemn.

   He walked to the last few frames and saw the back of "Overlord", where the stills from the movie "Celsius 911" were hung on it.

   Every word on the stills is bright red as blood, full of anti-war and accusations. In the stills, Michael Morgan clenched his fists and looked at death like a sympathetic soldier.

   This is the highest honor of the Cannes Film Festival, and it is also the highest praise of Cannes' official film art.

  Not far away, countless compliments followed, and Michael Morgan, surrounded by countless people, smiled brilliantly, and seemed to be the most eye-catching protagonist at the entire Cannes International Film Festival.

   Then...

   Zhou Yang stopped.

   He was warmly told by the staff next to him that he hoped to wait for a while...

   He heard a louder roar.

   Director Issa Bella, who won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin International Film Festival last year, was wearing a long white gauze with her skirt in both hands and came slowly.

  Michael Morgan and Issa Bella held hands, then came to Zhou Yang's side, and communicated with Zhou Yang very cordially in French.

   Zhou Yang couldn't understand what she was saying...

   But then Issa Bella also held her hand and pulled herself and Michael Morgan under the stills of "Celsius 911".

   A blonde photographer came over excitedly and took a photo.

  The light of the camera made Zhou Yang feel a little dazzling, he laughed instinctively, but the smile seemed so silly.

In order to swear that the Cannes Film Festival is the leader of the three major film festivals and is more sacred than the other two film festivals, this year they not only invited many politicians from the old and American officials, but also put "anti-war", "despair" and "miracle of life". "These three themes are vividly rendered.

  After taking the photos, the three walked into the awards venue of the Cannes Film Festival step by step.

   Zhou Yang felt like a cat fooled by a searchlight. He didn't care whether he was happy or not, but he felt that he had returned to the time when he drifted with the crowd.

  …………………………

   The awards ceremony of the Cannes International Film Festival is broadcast live worldwide.

   This is the grand event of the three major film festivals in Europe, and naturally, countless people are paying attention.

   "Nightwalker" crew has started to create.

   All the big names from Hong Kong, Taiwan and mainland China are invited, and it will definitely be a collaborative film that is not inferior to "The Grandmaster".

  Django was not happy.

   Instead, he was very haggard. Although he learned that Zhou Yang did not block him through the so-called relationship, he was as uncomfortable as a knife when he watched on the screen when Zhou Yang stood with the three of them for a close photo.

   He felt that the gap between himself and the other party was getting bigger and bigger, like a deep ditch.

   Awards ceremony is underway.

  In the news on the Internet.

   Some people interpret "Struggle" as another part of the "911 Celsius" movie, and it can even be understood as the same series of movies shot by different directors in the same location.

   Even, many shots of the two films can be connected in series.

   "The shooting of "Struggle" was suddenly bombed and collapsed. In fact, it was not caused by terrorists, but an ugly misjudgment and accidental bombing."

   "In "Celsius 911", there was a candid filming of the filming location of "Struggling" that the official arrived, and the ending of the bombing by the bomber was vaguely recorded..."

   "The officer was sent to a military court, and at this moment is repenting for those comrades who were mistakenly bombed..."

   "This is an extreme scandal, disgusting..."

  In the past, most of the media's reports on some old and beautiful aspects were just a mouthful. Even if they knew a lot of truth, they had never been torn down like they are now.

   But the media at this year’s Cannes International Film Festival are very crazy, accusing something between the lines, the status of some politicians is in jeopardy, and scandals continue.

  The official news reports of Django Cannes.

   Every piece of news seems to be talking about the cruelty of war and the desperation of ordinary people.

but……

   In his eyes, these news are all about Zhou Yang, boasting that Zhou Yang is a hero, a warrior, and one of the three high-profile figures at the Cannes International Film Festival this year...

  Django wanted to turn off the live broadcast, he was irritable, thinking that this guy was a lucky guy who made a mistake.

   Just when he turned it off, Cao Bangguo turned on the live broadcast again.

   "You have a chance to win if you face your opponent squarely."

   "He is lucky, but sometimes luck is also a kind of strength!"

   Cao Bangguo's voice echoed in Django's mind.

  Django finally nodded.

But……

   Inexplicable and a little disheartened.

   No matter how good my "Nightcrawler" is, can I win an award?

   "The Venice International Film Festival is in August this year! If you can become the first director in China to win the Golden Lion Award, then you will not be much worse than him."

   "Golden Lion Award...Is it possible for me?" After hearing Cao Bangguo's words, Django suddenly became even more desperate.

  Golden Lion Award, that is the highest award of the Venice International Film Festival, such an award...

   How could he possibly get it?

   "I will help you to film "Night Walker". This is a script that I carefully selected for you. After the filming is completed, it must be the rescue work of Hong Kong Island Films surpassing "The Grandmaster"!"

"it is good!"

   The originally despairing mood suddenly rekindled a glimmer of hope.

   He nodded suddenly.

  ………………………………

  Stage, lighting, all the attention.

   After walking into the Cannes Awards Hall, Zhou Yang felt a lot of discomfort.

  Vill Smith is like a courtesan who shuttles among many celebrities, and introduces each director to Zhou Yang by the way.

   These directors with different skin tones treat Zhou Yang very enthusiastically. They speak fluent English and chat with Zhou Yang a lot.

   Zhou Yang laughed until his skin was stiff, as if he felt that he had some facial blindness and amnesia. He didn't remember any of the directors' long names, and even thought they all looked alike.

  This year is completely different from last year.

   Last year, he and Wang Shuai brought "The Crow" to Cannes for the first time. At that time, he was unknown and no one knew about it, and "The Crow" finally failed, and he didn't get anything.

   This year, everything seemed to be the other way around.

He seems to be known by many foreign directors, and everyone is very enthusiastic. Although many smiles and eyes are full of hypocrisy and interests, Zhou Yang has the illusion that he is also a character, and his vanity is inexplicably expanded. meeting.

certainly……

  's inflated vanity was immediately suppressed by him.

   He came to his seat and sat down, silently waiting for the start of the Cannes International Film Festival.

  This year's Cannes Film Festival is different from last year.

   Last year's atmosphere was more festive. When the festival started, the host was in a very happy mood, and the mood was extremely high, but this year's Cannes International Film Festival was so gloomy.

  When the awards ceremony started, the entire venue fell into darkness for three minutes.

   In the center of the stage, there was an Austrian pianist playing piano pieces. Zhou Yang did not know who he was, but when he was playing, Zhou Yang saw some people in the front row stand up.

   After some people in the front row stood up, some people in the back row also stood up one after another.

  The dim light gradually became clear...

   Zhou Yang found that the pianist closed his eyes and was immersed in the melody. The piano sound changed from beautiful at first to extremely sad, and finally from low and sad to extremely sonorous, as if resisting something.

After the piano music was finished, Zhou Yang learned from the discussions that this pianist is a famous blind pianist in the world, enjoying a very high reputation in Austria. Committed to peace and freedom.

Peace.

   is the main theme of Cannes this year.

   After the performance, the host will come.

   The hostess of Cannes this year is Issa Bella who took a photo with herself just now.

   At this moment, she was full of enthusiasm and said something excitedly...

Immediately, the prelude of the stage slowly opened, and the figures of the judges gradually appeared. In addition to those famous directors, everyone found that among the judges, there were actually some veterans who lacked arms and legs, some from the old beauty, some from the old beauty It came from Ira*, and the two sides sat together, seemingly without any hatred for each other, and seemed to be in exceptional harmony.

   This year's Cannes official seems to intend to create the purpose of film art without borders. Under the rendering of a series of atmospheres, the force is full.

   "Hello, Mr. Hollywood Butcher..."

"Forehead?"

   Just as Zhou Yang was watching the start of the awards ceremony on the stage, he heard a voice.

   Zhou Yang subconsciously turned his head with a naive smile.

   Then, he saw an old man around fifty years old looking at him cheerfully.

The old man has a moustache, his eyes are gleaming, but the corners of his eyes are slightly sinister. Although he smiles enthusiastically, his twitching muscles are full of chilling temperament, like someone hiding in the dark, who can give you a knife at any time. of

   Zhou Yang felt that the old man seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

   hesitated for a while, and then his mind suddenly shook!

  If he remembered correctly, the old man in front of him seemed to be called James Bond!

  Is the legendary king of Hollywood horror?
