Wednesday, May 27.

As a coastal city in France, in this early summer season, Cannes will never be without beaches, beauties and romantic things.

With Zhang Guorong's handsomeness, his nightlife during this period was very colorful, and he almost changed to a girl brought back from the beach every two or three days.

This made Zhou Runfa, who had already cultivated his character, a little envious.

However, although Zhang Guorong has to pick up girls from time to time, he is not as concerned about the "Prison Storm" starring him and others, and is second only to Lin Lingdong.

After Lin Lingdong came to Cannes, he basically lived a two-point and one-line life.

After breakfast early in the morning, I went from the hotel to the venue, and went to my own movie playground, and then I kept guarding until the movie playback ended, and then returned to the hotel to rest.

Then the next day I repeated my life yesterday.

As one of the main competition units of the Cannes Film Festival this year, because Disney and Lianyi Film have acquaintances here, "Prison Storm" is a film that occupies a small screening hall, which can accommodate about 100 people.

Yin Jun is a person who is willing to spend money. After Lin Lingdong and his friends went to Cannes, they all included various small advertisements and posters printed.

Anyway, there are many Chinese here. Each person gets some money, and Zhang Guorong or Zhou Runfa takes photos and signs with them as a souvenir. They are satisfied and help post advertisements there all day long. Their seriousness and dedication are completely incomparable to professionals.

With such a promotion, and when I saw it, I saw the recommended movies in the main competition unit. Let’s go and have a look!

The Cannes Film Festival does not sell tickets, and in the past, professional personnel were usually invited to see it.

But after decades of holding, they suddenly realized that this was not good. There were only so many professionals, and they could not fill the screening room a few times. There were only a few or a dozen in this screening room. What do you think?

So later, the Cannes Film Festival had two ways.

One is to screen classic movies that have won awards before at the Beach Film Festival. You all can watch them casually, and you can sit down and watch them as long as you come.

The other one is in the venue. They will invite ordinary people who come to Cannes to see it, but you must apply for an invitation letter so that you can enter the venue.

You can’t say that, just like that, the Cannes Film Festival is getting more and more attractive. Every year, I don’t know how many people think of coming to Cannes on vacation in May, enjoy the beach, and then take a look at those literary and artistic movies that you can’t see during your holiday.

Yes.

Don’t watch so many commercial movies, but at least in Europe and the United States, there are still a lot of people who like to watch some in-depth art films.

Many people even get tired of watching commercial movies, so they find some literary and artistic movies to watch, which can be considered as cultivating their sentiments.

Among such people, there are many young couples, and young people try anything they like.

There are also many tourists coming to this Cannes Film Festival.

Every day, many people will come into the venue with invitations to watch the movies they want to watch.

Under the hard publicity of Chinese propagandists, "Prison Storm" is naturally a relatively conspicuous movie.

In the eyes of ordinary people in Europe and the United States, the East is full of mystery.

Xiangjiang, known as the pearl of the East, heard that it has a prosperous economy, Victorian street construction, and a very developed entertainment industry... These things combined have become a more charming expression of Xiangjiang.

Since the beginning of the film festival, the small theater has been filled with several consecutive events, and there are even many people queuing up to watch it.

Such a high starting point made Lin Lingdong excited and worried. If he waited until his curiosity dissipated and there were fewer audiences, it would be embarrassing.

Fortunately, this result did not occur.

The darkness in prison filmed in "Prison Storm" is the best, the most charitable, the most desperate, the glorious, the violent, the hope... These are very organized and very layered.

Whether it is Zhou Runfa, Zhang Guorong, Cheng Kui'an and other actors, they all understood the meaning that the movie wanted to express, making the movie look flesh and blood. Although it was sentimental, after it was sentimental, it felt relieved. What was left behind was something deep worth thinking about.

The script given by Yin Jun focuses on human nature than the version of Lin Lingdong's previous life, rather than the despair that Lin Lingdong is full of darkness and despair, and then bursts out in despair.

The boy doesn't like tragedy much, so he adds a hint of kindness to the malice of the whole world. If you taste it carefully, you will feel it from the bottom of your heart.

At the beginning, Lin Lingdong did not agree with the kindness element added by Yin Jun.

But Yin Jun is not only a screenwriter and a boss, Lin Lingdong will definitely not be so stupid to fight him. He can only compromise and shoot according to Yin Jun's script.

Now that we are in Cannes, through screenings and chatting with film critics and fans, Lin Lingdong suddenly discovered that what they care about the most is the glimmer of hope in despair.

In order to feel this better, several film critics even watched eight shows in three days.

Only then did Lin Lingdong feel the difference between himself and the world's top screenwriters.

Especially in these days, as soon as Yin Jun's "Great Split" advertisement that shocked the world came out, the name Yin Jun suddenly resounded throughout Cannes.

As a screenwriter of Yin Jun, "Prison Storm" has received great attention.

Lin Lingdong also saw that Mr. Anthony, the executive chairman of this jury, had watched "Prison Storm" with a few friends, not to mention the judges of other organizing committees.

Several judges have watched it more than once.

They had never come after receiving the invitation.

With this surprise, Zhang Guorong immediately asked Lin Lingdong if he was expected to win the award?

Lin Lingdong had a little expectation in his heart, but he still told Zhang Guorong that we had no way of knowing this, we could only depend on luck.

As a result, the next day, the organizing committee announced the nomination list.

"Prison Storm" actually received 3 nominations in one go.

The Best Screenwriter, Best Actor, and the Palme d'Or Award almost all won the nominations for "Prison Storm". It is definitely a unique part of all the official competition films in the competition.

Now Zhang Guorong became excited and quickly pulled Zhou Runfa to buy a dress, deciding to make a glorious appearance tomorrow.

Those who don’t know thought Zhang Guorong was the male lead, but he didn’t even get the nomination.

But Zhang Guorong has a good attitude. He is only in his twenties and will have opportunities in the future. What's more, he has not yet been involved in the movie and is constantly singing!

Then, under everyone's expectations, it was finally time for the 34th Cannes Film Festival to close today.

After putting on the suit in the box and coming to the venue, Lin Lingdong regretted it a little.

Because he is not as handsome as Zhou Runfa on the left, nor as handsome as Zhang Guorong on the right, and his clothes are not as fashionable and expensive as theirs. When he is sandwiched between the two handsome guys, he is the foil.

Thanks to the director, he didn't have to be good-looking, Lin Lingdong still walked the red carpet with them with a smile.

Sitting on the chair arranged by the organizing committee, the three of them suddenly felt a little nervous when they looked at the foreigners everywhere.

The reporters from Qilin TV and Qilin Daily were also here, but they did not have the qualifications to sit here, but were in the media area.

Even after the award ceremony began, this nervous feeling not only did not disappear, but became stronger.

Xiangjiang Movie once won the Cannes award, but the awards of Li Hanxiang and Hu Jinquan are not worth much, and they have not even been nominated for the Best Actor and the Palme d’Or.

Now "Prison Storm" has received three major nominations in history. If you say there is no expectation, it is fake; if you say there is no worry or anxiety, it is even more fake.

"Hey, Brother Dong." Zhang Guorong poked Lin Lingdong, his eyes and face still towards the podium.

"What?" Lin Lingdong also had a expressionless face.

"As the saying goes, a hot man will die. Are we hopeless?" Zhang Guorong said.

"Stop talking nonsense here. I'm still waiting to get the prize back to my Lianmei!" Zhou Runfa immediately replied with a smile on his face. Of course, his smile was still towards the stage.

"I dare not talk about anything else, but Jun Shao's screenwriter award should be a little sure of it?" Lin Lingdong didn't have much expectations, but he also had hope.

"Brother Fa said that if you can't win the prize, he will throw you into the cesspool after you go back to let you know how great it is." Zhang Guorong betrayed his friend.

"I said Fazi, you are too bullying the weak and afraid of being strong, right? This script was written by Jun Shao. I am the executor. Why are you holding me back?" Lin Lingdong was speechless.

"You all say that I bully the weak and fear the strong. If I don't bully you, who will I bully you? I still remember..."

"Shh! The best screenwriter is here..."

Lin Lingdong's expression suddenly changed, and he patted Zhou Runfa, who was smirking repeatedly.

Zhang Guorong and Zhou Runfa quickly looked at the stage together.

The old white-haired artist first listened to the narrator introducing the four shortlisted scripts, then turned his head from the large-scale TV screen, without saying anything, and opened the envelope with a smile and pronounced a name.

“Mephisto, Petre.”

A middle-aged man sitting not far away suddenly stood up.

He was full of Eastern Europeans, and rushed to the stage excitedly and talked violently, but Lin Lingdong and others completely didn't understand.

It doesn’t matter whether you understand or not. It’s enough to understand this award and not be able to get your own crew.

"It's over! All the most confident ones are gone." Zhang Guorong sighed while clapping his hands.

"I knew that they must have let us run away! It turns out that they will die if they are a hot guy!" Zhou Runfa also smiled helplessly.

"What's the matter? I don't think it's certain. There are very few people who tease people like this. None of them got three nominations, but they don't have that much scruple." Lin Lingdong still maintained a little sober.

...

(I wish all the gentlemen a happy Mid-Autumn Festival! Reunion and peace!)
Chapter completed!
