Chapter 172 170. Come out (ten thousand!)
After thinking for a while, Xu Xin took a few steps closer and came to the middle of the steel structure construction and drainage construction.
On the one hand, the sound of the cutting machine can be heard occasionally, and on the other hand, the sound of pipe erection can be heard.
Then he answered the phone:
"Hey, Director Shang, tell me."
It can be considered a coincidence, as soon as he opened his mouth, the cutting machine over there began to emit sparks, and there was a noise suddenly.
Shang Jing was taken aback for a moment, and asked with some doubts:
"Xiao Xu, where are you?"
"I'm at the construction site, in Shenmu."
"Construction site? ... so late?"
"right."
Xu Xin responded and said loudly on purpose:
"Because of the Olympics, Director Shang, I'm a bit noisy here. Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Uh... well, it's like this. I cut out 20 episodes of "Wulin Biography" some time ago, and then found eight sets, and handed them in. I wanted to see if they were interested. Then I replied today, 1,600 One million, copyright buyout, I think it's okay, how about it?"
"嗡~~~~~"
The sound of the cutting machine sounded again.
To be honest, an investment of 10 million yuan was exchanged for a buyout of 16 million yuan.
Xu Xin's net profit is about four million yuan.
Because there is still Shang Jing’s money and Ding Caishen’s script fee.
has been paid before.
Now the copyright of "Wulin Biography" is in the hands of Headwind Entertainment.
To be honest, as far as TV dramas are concerned, although they can't be called big hits, the profits are not low.
But the question is about copyright buyout.
Disposable.
It's not like the first broadcast or carousel.
If CCTV is only the first broadcast, but the rotation rights are still in the hands of the headwind, the first round of the first broadcast will make a small profit, and the second and third rounds will also be a lot of money.
Then this TV series is a pretty long-term payoff.
At first glance, it is already very good, but it is a loss when you actually think about it.
If it is the premiere rights, Xu Xin also thinks there is nothing wrong with it. The return of more than 40% is enough to put it anywhere. But buying out the entire copyright, if you agree...it is obviously not a smart way.
Shang Dao's ass... a bit crooked.
But he said before that he would not interfere with any matters related to Headwind Entertainment.
What's more, since Liu Momo has notified him in advance to refuse, then he can only "tell the truth":
"Director Shang, although I'm an investor, you don't need to talk to me about how much to sell or what to do. I let Sister Mo handle it. I don't care about it, you can talk to her directly. "
"Well…"
Shang Jing froze for a moment, then said:
"Aren't you a commissioner?"
"We are partners. The entrustment is just a normal procedure, but we have an agreement in this regard. I only offer opinions on these things, but I have no decision-making power. I think the price is okay, but you have to find the signature. She. The copyright is in her hands."
"..."
Shang Jing was suddenly speechless.
thought for a while, and said:
"She disagrees."
"...Huh? Why?"
Xu Xin continued pretending to be confused while pretending to understand.
"Because I thought the price was too low, I told me that CCTV had already made plans. If it wasn't for Mimi's news about Cannes, maybe CCTV wouldn't let it go. Now I want to let go of the copyright, isn't it impossible? , but the conversation must continue."
"Well…"
Hearing this, Xu Xin actually understood what Liu Momo was after.
The current CCTV is well-deserved as the industry leader, and this cannot be faked. It is a well-deserved overlord in the TV industry.
They buy, buy to broadcast, and use the huge audience to launch advertisements.
What you earn is advertising fees.
Besides, the prices of TV dramas that have always been on CCTV are not so outrageous. After all... people have big plates.
As the main revenue point, advertising fees have always been coveted by many filmmakers.
However... Unless it is a super high-quality drama, usually CCTV will not let go of this aspect.
That's money in other people's pockets, so why should I distribute it to you?
As for the price of this TV series, if it is the first broadcast, even Xu Xin can accept it. In fact, it can be seen that CCTV is quite fair. But want to simply take away the entire copyright of 16 million?
Yes, not impossible. Then let's talk about advertising fees.
Thinking of this, he felt for no reason... This sister's appetite is quite big sometimes.
Counting on Yang Mi, she wants to bite off a piece of CCTV's advertising fee...
It is estimated that it is unlikely.
But... the same sentence, on the one hand, Liu Momo asked him to refuse, on the other hand, he did promise not to interfere with anything about Headwind Entertainment.
So, following Shang Jing's words, Xu Xin could only say:
"Director Shang, I really can't tell you about this matter. I don't know about it...Moreover, I don't have time to think about it. If you don't believe me, you can ask Director Zhang. What I'm doing now is of great significance to the Olympic Games. How important. So...I've been very busy recently, not to shirk you, but I really don't have the heart to worry about these things. How much to sell or what to do, I can only say that you don't have any pressure, okay? But what exactly? I can't manage these operations, and I don't have time to manage them, and my construction site is still running 24 hours a day."
The voice falls...
"Zizizizizizi..."
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The sounds of pipes and cutters sounded.
It's getting louder.
Shang Jing's ears are too harsh, let alone Xu Xin.
So, he said logically:
"That's my opinion. Just talk to Sister Mo, okay? It's too noisy here. You can talk to Sister Mo. When the time comes, just talk to me, okay? I'll hang up first. "
"That's... okay... okay, let's talk, Xiao Xu, you can be busy, um."
The phone hangs up.
Xu Xin hurriedly withdrew from the noisy area.
Rubbed her ears, and sent a message to Liu Momo:
"I told him, you two talk, I don't care about it, it's hard work."
After sending the message, put the phone in his pocket, and he doesn't care.
It is true that there is no way to control it.
There is still a mess here.
…
The first round list of Cannes will be announced on April 15th.
Then on the 18th three days later, the list for the second round was announced.
And all films will be screened and screened on the 27th of this month.
The shortlisted directors from all over the world were given nine days to arrive here. The screening took 13 days in total. The screening ended on May 10, and the awards ceremony began on May 12.
These procedures and invitation letters will be issued one after another through the film and television associations associated with Cannes, and Jay Chou and the others have also prepared the relevant procedures for going abroad.
But Yang Mi can't go for the time being.
Her departure date is set on the 10th, which is the day when the screening ends.
There is no way, the drama "Yanjing People" by Renyi Pai started on April 23rd and lasted until May 9th.
During this period, she had to stay honestly at the Capital Theater.
As a young actor who has joined Renyi for less than a year, being able to get the role of "Su Fang" and perform another masterpiece of Cao Yu also represents the girl's acting talent and level.
In the hearts of girls, the importance of this drama can be imagined.
As long as you can act well, then in terms of confidence in the path of acting and acting skills, you don’t need others, which is a huge affirmation of yourself.
So, during this period of time, she was running between school and arts.
Then catch up with the gap between rehearsals, and catch an early morning plane to shoot some magazine covers and the like, and come back in the evening.
Very tired, very hard.
But she didn't let Sun Ting and Xu Xin talk about it.
Anyway, my boyfriend has been staying in Shenmu during this time, and I don’t know where I am... just lie and pass.
Otherwise, with his virtue of protecting the calf, knowing that he ran like this, it would be strange if he didn't fry the pot.
Xu Xin really didn't know about it either.
Because Yang Mi never mentioned it in the phone conversation between the two of them every night, even if she called her once to turn off the phone, when Xu Xin dialed Sun Ting, she just got a lie of "my sister is in the dormitory".
He must have 100% trust in his girlfriend.
So I didn't take it seriously.
Time passed in such a rhythm that when he was busy, he would lose his head. In order to hype the heat, Jay Chou agreed to the proposal of Xiying Studio. On April 20th, released a single: "The Unspeakable Secret" OST of the same name, which is also the song in the new album - "The Unspeakable Secret".
As soon as the song came out, his fans immediately fell into a carnival. At the same time, it also added fire to the movie "The Unspeakable Secret"!
Then, on the 26th, ignoring the comments on the Internet about how "The Unspeakable Secret" was going to Cannes, Li Pingdong led Jay Chou, Gui Lunmei, and two people sent by Xiying Studio to add Wanwan. The two people from the distribution company, Huang Junlang and Warhead, set off for Cannes.
The ground reception and translation are all in charge of Liu Momo.
Needless to say about the social meeting, Xiying Studio, who was still suspicious of Liu Momo at the beginning, heard that the short-haired girl did not know how to use some means to put the first round of screening of "The Unspeakable Secret" at 3:30 in the afternoon. Also convinced.
The prime time for screenings is the afternoon and evening, mid-morning and most late-night.
And it can be put at 3:30...even if it's only the first round, even if it's only one day...
This girl is quite capable.
As the media followed up, photos of Jay Chou and Gui Lunmei appearing in Cannes also came out.
Only Yang Mi was not seen.
But no one was surprised.
As early as the 23rd, Yang Mi's whereabouts had been disclosed online.
During the period from 23rd to May 9th, she was included in the cast and crew of the drama "Yanjing People" launched by Renyi.
This also makes this version of "Yanjing Man" more popular invisibly.
In the past, dramas were relatively small, and they were watched by those who loved to watch, knew how to watch, and how to taste dramas, an art form that is completely different from movies.
Actors are to exercise their acting skills.
There are also those who really like drama.
But most of the actors come to act in dramas, in fact, they come because they don’t have any resources.
But this kind of situation is rare in Renyi.
There are many big names in Renyi, and these people can be said to be "actors" in the true sense.
Therefore, other people’s dramas are scarce, but Renyi’s dramas are not sold out, but the audience is still relatively large.
But the appearance of Yang Mi's news directly changed "large audience" into "full venue".
On the first day, because the news just came out, I still can't see anything. After all, there were many so-and-so friends who came to join us that day.
It is normal for the entire Capital Theater to be full.
But from the second day on, there were suddenly more... young faces in the Capital Theater.
Just like some of the people you see in bars.
For some old customers, you only need to take a look to know that these people are definitely either coming for the first time or coming rarely...
Exuding that out of place temperament.
At first, I wondered who it was to see, but after the performance ended, when the actors called the curtain call, they spontaneously shouted and called "Yang Mi", the group of people understood what was going on.
This is... came to the drama theater to chase stars?
But no matter what, Yang Mi made the drama "Yanjing People" come into the view of many people at once through her popularity.
Including the remarks of those who came back from watching the Internet, what:
“It’s the first time I’ve watched a play, and it’s really interesting.”
"Unlike movies, live performances... are fresh."
“At first I felt awkward and couldn’t watch it, but after I got used to watching it, I found it more comfortable than the rhythm of the movie. I don’t know why.”
"The appeal is quite strong. At first, I felt that they were so embarrassed. They were clearly on the stage, but they acted as if they were real. Later, when I was immersed in the story, I felt different...a great story."
The performance lineup produced by Renyi, the script of the master of the drama, and the solid internal and external performances spread little by little through the mouths of these newly joined audiences.
It seems that... really made some contributions to the spread of the drama.
Among them, although Yang Mina is not amazing, her extremely solid performance has made more and more people remember her.
It's just a little regrettable.
After the show ended, the reporter who made her way into the backstage interview did not ask anything from the girl.
The scene of the Asian Film Awards that day was staged on her again.
It’s just that the angle is changed this time.
A group of actors who were not well-known but extremely solid in their roles were ignored, and they aimed at her from the moment they entered the room, surrounding her in the middle.
But it was different from the scene at the Asian Film Awards.
This time, the girl resolutely refused to answer any questions other than the performance of "Yanjing People". Questions other than those related to the drama are disrespectful to everyone in this show.
What the reporters think, she doesn't know.
But at least in the hearts of the actors and actresses in this performance, this little girl...
Sensible.
…
"The cold coffee left the coaster, and the emotions I held back are far behind..."
Cannes.
When the piano solo and his own singing sounded, Jay Chou's heart rose to his throat.
Today is the first day of screening.
Before 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Jay Chou, Gui Lunmei, Li Pingdong, and Liu Momo had already arrived at the assigned screening theater.
But not a high-profile entry, but some camouflage.
Cannes prohibits relevant crew members from entering the screening venue when the film is being screened.
The purpose is to prevent the audience's judgment of the film from being unbalanced due to personal reasons.
But it does not prohibit everyone from eavesdropping and peeking...
Anyway, as long as you don't get caught.
When Jay Chou arrived, he was still worried about the attendance rate at first.
After all, in the morning, they went to see a new work "Psychedelic Park" by the director of "Elephant" Gus Van Sant.
At the beginning, Jay Chou thought that as a director’s work that would allow Cannes to break the tradition and award both the best film and the best director to one person, it must have a very large audience and many people. The result was slapped in the face.
Except for a few of them, there were less than 50 people in the screening hall of "Psychedelic Park".
Then contact the other party's movie order time in the morning...
Liu Momo came up with a conclusion, which was agreed by Li Pingdong.
That is...Because Van Sant broke the tradition of Cannes, he suffered resistance from Cannes fans...
Otherwise, the other party should never be treated like this.
Regardless of the movie, Jay Chou has been worried about the attendance rate of "The Unspeakable Secret" ever since he heard this sentence.
Come here early to see how the tickets are selling.
As a result, as soon as I arrived at the entrance of the theater, I saw a long queue.
At the end of the line is the ticket window where "SECRET" is hung.
Obviously, this group of people came to see this movie.
And look at the composition of the crowd in the team...
Um.
can only say…
There are so many people in the Celestial Dynasty.
Wherever you go, you are compatriots.
In the long queue, foreigners account for no more than 10%, and the rest are Asian faces...
Several people are actually a little confused.
However, Li Pingdong, who is an old Jianghu, said:
"Well, it seems that there is no need to worry about the attendance rate."
Indeed, there is no need to worry about attendance.
But man...
Sometimes that's the case.
People want what they lack, and when they get it, desire forces people to want more.
Now that you don’t have to worry about people, start worrying about word of mouth.
So, after the movie theater closed, Jay Chou and the others squatted outside...wanting to see everyone's reaction.
No one dared to go in and see what was going on.
Because Li Pingdong said that there will be inspectors in Cannes, and breaking the rules is very bad.
So, everyone can only listen through the door.
But because he is easy to be recognized by others...even if he is disguised, there are risks.
So, Warhead and Huang Junlang could only lie at the door of the closed auditorium, with their ears pressed together, checking for movement.
"How's it going?"
Jay Chou asked in a low voice.
After listening to the warhead, he suddenly said:
"Brother, I'm singing..."
The voice fell, let alone the warhead, even Jay Chou heard the singing inside:
"It's the eaves that once hid the rain with you~~~oh~~~~~~"…
"You said that if you let go of love gradually, you will go further..."
"Why bother to change ~ the time that has been missed ~..."
The chorus of "Secrets That Cannot Be Telled", which has been released for a week, rang out.
But Jay Chou was speechless.
Please...
I want to see everyone's true reflections.
Why are you singing?
It's not a concert...
If you can win the prize, I will give you a concert every day...
I want to hear feedback...
Before he could speak, the door on Huang Junlang's side was pushed open.
A Lang was not paying attention and was bumped.
Then, a few middle-aged foreigners came out, and they were taken aback when they saw Huang Junlang...
One of them seemed a little confused, and after saying "AH~DESOLE" sorry, he tilted his head again...
But he didn't say anything, and left.
The warhead didn't care about Huang Junlang at all. When several Frenchmen opened the door, his eyes glanced inside.
pity…
This door is with automatic closing function.
He didn't dare to stop it from closing, and the door quickly closed again.
Just like that, everyone was silent, listening to the singing inside...
After listening to the whole song, suddenly...
"oh!!"
"Wow la la la la la..."
Applause and cheers sounded from inside.
And at this moment, Liu Momo walked up to Jay Chou:
"Got to go, there are reporters and media coming."
Hearing this, Jay Chou hurriedly responded, and left with the big guy.
And walk out of the safe passage, away from the crowd.
Jay Chou took another look at the main entrance of the theater where the crowds were entering and exiting, and tentatively said:
"It's...not bad?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
Except for Li Pingdong, no one else knows how to say it...
Say it’s good, it’s pretty good. There were many people watching, the cheers were loud, and there was a chorus.
Really good.
Can…
Now the big guys actually don’t know whether it’s because of the song or the movie itself…
If the film screening is over, there are applause and cheers, and then start singing, clapping and cheering again, then it must be success.
Regardless of whether you can win an award or not, at least you have been affirmed.
But now... no one has a clue.
Cheers, yes.
Applause, yes.
The ending song was also affirmed.
But the question is...how is the quality?
So, no one knows what to say.
At this time, Li Pingdong was the first to speak:
"Ha, in fact, the audience's reaction does not determine the judges' point of view."
The middle-aged man was smoking a cigarette with a relaxed tone.
After all, he is an old Jianghu, and he has experienced all kinds of storms and waves. Seeing a group of "cute newcomers" scratching their heads, he naturally had to stand up and lead the team.
"Today's screening is for the audience and also for the film critics. But the final tone of the judges has basically passed round after round of review, and it has already been determined. So it doesn't matter whether it is good or bad. Relationship. You don’t have to think that you can influence something by relying on the applause of the audience. You don’t have to feel that you have influenced something because there are no audiences. It’s not necessary. .”
Hearing his words, Jay Chou and Warhead felt a little better.
but…
Following Liu Momo's gaze, Li Pingdong also glanced at her.
Through this glance at each other, the two have already understood a certain point of view in the other's heart, which is actually the same as their own.
All the faces that come today are Asian.
There are very few foreigners.
Although it's not ruled out that I didn't get tickets...but overall, the audience of this film in Europe seems to be very small.
is a little worrying.
At this time, the warhead asked:
"Director Li, where can we see the evaluation?"
"On the Cannes website... but not yet, it's dinner time. People in France are pretty lazy. Even if there are film critics who can write film reviews, it must be after dinner. So... let's go to dinner? What? Sample?"
Hearing this, everyone naturally had no objection. They nodded and quietly headed towards a good restaurant nearby, led by Liu Momo.
After a meal, other people want to watch a movie and see the works of other directors.
Only Warhead, he has maintained a high level of concentration and enthusiasm for the movie he starred in.
You want to go to the movies?
All right, let’s go.
I'm going back to the hotel...
No, I have to read the comments...
Liu Momo rolled his eyes when he heard this, and asked a very heartbreaking question:
"Do you know French?"
"Well…"
…
11:30 p.m. French time.
In Jay Chou's hotel suite.
Everyone's attention was focused on Liu Momo. She found the "SECRET" column on the Cannes website, clicked on it, and then scrolled down.
The Cannes Film Festival does not have a so-called audience message board, but there will be links to articles by professional film critics.
Usually, the comments from the audience of the film festival participating in the exhibition can be seen on another website.
This website is not an official website, but every year, according to the shortlist, one movie after another will be listed for discussion by fans who have watched it.
Compared with how fans view this film, it can be used as a weathervane reference. Obviously, everyone cares more about the opinions of film critics.
Perhaps because it was too early, there was only one movie critic link on the entire website link. After Liu Momo directly clicked in, he began to translate to everyone:
“This article was written by film critic…Jean-Passon Madeleine.”
"Is he famous?"
Before Liu Momo finished speaking, Warhead asked a question.
After Liu Momo thought about it, he said:
"The second line. There is still a distance from the big film critics. It is not particularly authoritative."
"Well…"
Warhead seemed a little disappointed, and Gui Lunmei asked:
"What did he say?"
"Let me see... Well, let me translate it for you. His first sentence: Thank God, I finally let me see the enterprising spirit of the Chinese filmmakers. They are finally no longer satisfied...satisfied...to dig out the ugly side of human nature .”
"..."
"..."
"..."
The whole room doesn't know what to say...
“My definition of this film is very clear. It is two extremes that are separated. It has a very eye-catching directing style, but at the same time, the acting skills of the actors are a disaster...”
After translating smoothly, Liu Momo quickly stopped the words.
A little embarrassing.
And more embarrassing for other people...
"No...it's okay, you can continue talking."
Hearing what Jay Chou said, Liu Momo nodded:
"good."
However, after reading the next sentence, she decided to translate it tactfully:
"It probably means that the actor's acting skills are still very immature. That's what it means."
"...It's okay, you can just translate it directly, and we can all accept it."
Obviously, Jay Chou wants to hear the "truth".
"...Well... I don't know why a director with such a strong personal style would make such a mistake in the casting process. In my opinion, his role selection is a complete disaster. The male lead's..."
She glanced at Jay Chou again, thought for a while, and continued to translate:
"The actor's acting skills are jerky and dull, full of layman's taste. At first glance, the heroine's performance is very good, but in fact the core is hollow and soulless. And the other supporting roles, except for the actor's father, look It sounds all contrived. The casting of this film is simply disastrous...Well, the following words are basically criticisms, so I won’t translate it, and I’ll just talk about the next paragraph.”
Liu Momo looked at everyone's faces, so he simply skipped this part:
"Okay, ladies and gentlemen, after the shortcomings are finished, let's return to the movie itself: Frankly speaking, it is the most comfortable movie I have seen about Chinese movies in recent years. When Chinese movies feel this way, it's still "NotOneLess"... Well, "Not One Less".
While watching "Not One Less" in Venice, I was moved by director Zhang Yimou's deliberate creation of artificial colors, and began to explore the natural and simple beauty. But that movie was like a flash in the pan. When I thought that Chinese films had begun to enter the next stage, I was frustrated by those Chinese filmmakers who continued to exhibit obscure and dark themes in the past few years.
First of all, the director style of this film is great. The reason why a film is called art is that its most basic definition is composed of colors, lenses, and interpretation objects. And this movie can be seen as a director's control in terms of color matching, scene layout, and the comfortable rhythm.
He has injected his own distinct personal style into this film.
I like to use the scenery to highlight the inner world of the characters, and I like to express the rich and colorful inner world of a man and woman in love through the comprehensive environment instead of monotonous acting skills. Of course, it is not ruled out that he is making up for the lack of actors. As much as possible to make up for, I think he's great.
The second is the continuity of rhythm. This script is very interesting. At first glance, it seems that one story line runs through the whole, but in fact the director is showing us four different endings. And these four endings are not very abruptly interspersed, but are reasonably buried in the main line. With his comfortable but not sluggish main story, it unfolds little by little.
Even, this film has a very interesting point. It is full of rationality, that is to say, you can combine the four endings... or four completely different lives into one, and you can also use the ending of the main line to deduce at a certain critical point in time, if the hero After making another choice, what will be the result.
The director sincerely showed four reasonable "tragedies" to everyone. But he didn't exaggerate it too much, and the understatement made people feel that he made the right choice, which is awesome.
Please forgive me for mentioning the Chinese movie again, because this movie really surprised me a lot. He didn't exaggerate the tragedy too much, and he seemed to be insulated from the darkness. He didn't even deliberately analyze the malice and ugliness from the campus in the film. And that's why I think Chinese movies have been stagnating...even regressing over the years.
I have never felt that obscurity, darkness, and the ugliness of human nature can be constructed as the key to the highest palace of artistic achievement. Man's desire for light must far exceed darkness.
And this movie, at least I think, came from a man with a bright heart. Using the script, using this ingenious combination of stories that are divided into four and united into one, it allows us to see a story that is pleasant to the mind and body. At the same time, through the control of the camera, the entire seemingly single story has been arranged into an intriguing youth movie that can be understood without being too professional.
Obviously, this is an excellent movie. But like I said before, its flaws are equally obvious. First, the depth of the script is not enough, its upper limit is very low... Even in my opinion, its depth is limited, but the director has worked hard to bring it to a height beyond the limit in the limited script, which is already a remarkable achievement up. The second is the acting skills of the actors in the whole play, which greatly dragged it down. It should have deserved a better evaluation.
Finally, my point of view is: Although this is a severely divided youth love movie, people of different ages can find a kind of resonance of their own memories in it. So it is recommended to see it. Moreover, it is indeed a new style that is difficult to see in Chinese movies, and it is even the Chinese movie that has given me the biggest surprise in the past two years.
And at least the colleagues who went to watch it with me also have this view.
Because it made me see that Chinese filmmakers are trying to get out of their "comfort zone". If you are as interested in Chinese films as I am, but are tired of their style of exploring and exposing the dark side, then this film will bring Give you a completely different feeling. Well, good night, ladies and gentlemen. "
Simultaneous translation is completed.
Liu Momo let out a long sigh of relief.
Subconsciously raised his head and looked at the big guy's expression...
After thinking about it, she said:
"Overall, Xu Xin's evaluation is very good. The movie...he should have a passing score...As for the criticism, you don't have to mind too much. Film critics are a nitpicking profession. It's impossible. There's one movie that's perfect for everyone. So... don't worry too much about it..."
After finishing speaking, she refreshed the website, and after seeing that there were no new movie reviews, she said:
"Let's see the audience evaluation..."
After some operations, he nodded:
"There are still a lot of Chinese reviews... Let's take a look?"
Warhead and Gui Lunmei walked over immediately.
"It's so beautiful..."
The latest Chinese comment came into view.
…
"The first round of the Cannes screening of "The Unspeakable Secret" was full!"
"Audience: Jay Chou's acting skills brought us a lot of surprises, and the movie is also very good to watch."
""The Untold Secret" may become the biggest dark horse in Cannes?"
"Prediction in advance: Which awards are expected to be won by "The Secret You Cannot Tell""
"Wang Jiawei, Hou Xiaoxian, Xu Xin, the influence of Chinese movies is sweeping the world"
People abroad are watching, and people in China are also paying attention.
Some movie magazines were sent overseas and brought back first-hand information after the movie ended.
First, there was the long queue at the window of "The Unspeakable Secret", the "cold reception" with other movie windows, and after the screening of the film, some audience interviews, including the popularity of the song "The Unspeakable Secret"...
All of a sudden, it seemed that everyone in the entire celestial dynasty knew the name of the movie "The Unspeakable Secret".
The first to bear the brunt of the change is that all major theaters have unanimously begun to prepare for increasing the number of films scheduled for the summer vacation.
After all... the heat seems to have picked up.
Don’t care about winning or not, it’s definitely right to have a larger number of films.
Secondly, there are interview invitations received by various actor and artist management teams.
Even Jay Chou and the others in France have been invited by many domestic media who rushed to France for interviews.
Moreover, along with the second and third time slots, whether it was the early morning or morning screenings, some Chinese people from similar countries such as France, Britain, and Germany came here for each screening, resulting in a full-blown screening. The photos in the hall are set off, everyone seems to be...predictable, this film will definitely come back with a big prize...
It seems that the best film awards in Cannes, and even the best actor and actress have begun to wave their hands...
Although some knowledgeable media or netizens are still explaining that there is no such film in the main competition, Jay Chou can't be crowned emperor at Cannes... But there are so many wolves that the tiger can't stand.
Some people who don't know how to do it will post articles blindly, and the rhythmic media will fuel the flames.
