my gilded age

Chapter 223 This year’s Cannes is particularly chaotic
"Let's get straight to the point. You like Lao Bai very much, right?"

"But I sincerely remind you that you and Lao Bai are not from the same world, and you have nothing in common."

"I can't be with him. I'm kindly reminding you that when I leave him, he will have an emotional gap. At this time, you can indeed take advantage of it easily, but the result will not be good. I know you won’t believe it.”

"The reason why I want to leave? You can think of it as me looking for poetry and the distance. I know that you don't believe it either. So, I won't give Lao Bai any bullshit reasons."

Yuanyuan kept recalling the conversation she had with Feng Ru a few years ago in a cafe in Wangfujing. These memories were vague before, but now they are extremely clear.

"Then you want to come back now to get what belongs to you?"

"Lao Bai is nothing. I can't get him back. It's useless even if I want to."

"It sounded like a curse."

"Hehehe... don't worry about these details, I'm here to help you this time."

"How do you know what happened between me and Lao Bai?"

"I was also invited to do some work at this film festival. I accidentally took a photo of you and Lao Bai. Do you know? Do you really not know? You and him are like friends, friends, do you understand? No Lovers, you two are finished."

"I will work hard on my own..."

"How hard are you trying? Satisfy him with all the available holes in your body? Is it useful? This can only be an adjustment, and it cannot change the fundamentals. Moreover, I dare say that he has no interest in you now."

"you……"

Yuanyuan was speechless. In fact, she had had such an awareness before, and even found some short films to watch and learn from, but now, Feng Ru had said it all.

"Why do you want to help me?"

"I'm not pitying you, and I'm not helping you stay with him. I just feel that we have something in common."

"Do you still love him?"

"of course."

"Then why not stay with him?"

"If possible, do you think you have a chance? Do you think I won't kill the goblins that keep popping up around him?"

"Then you're not with another man..."

"Old Bai, this is still the object of my fantasy."

Yuanyuan stopped asking. She understood some things, such as the similarities between herself and Feng Ru. Sometimes she would also have some beneficial fantasies.

"What if I can win Cannes Best Actress? I will discuss with him about acting in the future. Isn't this a common language?"

"According to what I know about him, he will try his best to help you get that damn movie queen."

Hearing this, Yuanyuan almost collapsed and finally couldn't help it...

"How many have you smoked?"

"Ah? You can smoke here."

Bai Shiqiu came back from the toilet. He was already quitting smoking, but he still had it with him just in case. He didn't smoke anything at all just now, he just lit one and thought about things.

Why did Feng Ru appear like this?

Bai Shiqiu was very strange, but it was hard to ask too many questions. But now he knew that he and Feng Ru were over, and his current woman was...

Damn, it's really too complicated.

I couldn't help but take another hard puff.

"Xiaoru, this is my phone number."

"Hmm, Yuanyuan, we can talk some more in the future."

Seeing the two of them exchanging contact information, Bai Shiqiu realized that he had even forgotten this, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone.

"Lao Bai, I don't need yours. I will naturally look for you when I want to find you."

Feng Ru smiled slightly, and then took her leave, saying that she would not disturb their two-person world.

So, are the two of us in a world?
……

"look here!"

"Wow! So beautiful!"

clack clack...

The Cannes Film Festival finally opened. At the red carpet ceremony, the main creators of "Green Red" came to the scene, and Bai Shiqiu and Yuanyuan were really handsome.

Many reporters from China took endless photos.

In fact, forget about Baek Shi Qiu. He just performed normally and wore an orthodox suit. Speaking of which, to attend such an occasion, you are very particular about your clothes. I'm afraid many people don't know that a dress costs about 2 U.S. dollars. , and then...throw it away after you wear it, because it is dirty and cannot be washed.

Don’t doubt it, there really is no way to wash it, and ask the people selling clothes, they will tell you.

Our clothes have not been washed.

This matter has been unknown to most people for many years. After everyone knew about it, it became a popular word on the Internet.

Imagination is limited by poverty.

Bai Shiqiu felt that he was still a poor man, so he brought a set of formal clothes from a domestic brand. At most, he would not feel so distressed if he wore them once and threw them away.

In this regard, he is really frugal.

But Yuanyuan was different. Her preparation this time was quite creative. She wore a silver dress with an ancient painting embroidered on it, including pines and cypresses and cranes.

It is indeed very beautiful, but in Lao Bai's opinion, the meaning of this song and crane extending life is rather ordinary. How old are you Yuanyuan?

But no matter so much, beauty is beauty. Yuanyuan still has short hair at this time. She has been traveling very well recently and her face is radiant, especially, especially...

Could it be that we men have also made meritorious deeds in the past few years?

Much bigger.

But after taking a closer look, he said in a low voice, "Isn't it hot?"

"You...go to hell!" Yuanyuan was so angry that she secretly pinched Lao Bai.

Yes, I put something on it, but so what?
To be honest, it feels good to be flirting like this...

The trip to the Cannes Film Festival also begins.

The play "Green Red" is definitely Wang Xiaoshuai's painstaking work. He almost devoted all of it, and in order to highlight his entire style, he recruited his previous team, especially the actors.

"I used Yuanyuan and Bai Shiqiu. Everyone is familiar with these two. They performed very well in "17 Years Old Cycling". Especially Yuanyuan, she has made great progress..."

Before coming to France, in an interview, he highly praised the two leading actors, which was very rare in the past.

One of the characteristics of Wang Xiaoshuai's films is that the protagonist is not clear. Often, what he shoots are not people, but that era and place.The fact that Yuanyuan's acting skills are outstanding has made it to the prominent position of the entertainment section. Of course, it is not easy to make the headlines.

However, "Green Red" may be a good drama, but in this year's Cannes, it didn't seem too special.

This year's Cannes was just... weird.

Experts from all walks of life and filmmakers from all walks of life have come up with their own masterpieces that have been brewing for many years, and they are almost pure literary films.

You know, this is a film festival after all, and any film can be screened. Back then, the Berlin Film Festival opened with the film "At the Gate".

It seems that Cannes will never look back when it takes the literary route.

Not only those from Europe and the United States, many of the literary and artistic films there are heavy-duty. For example, from China, Mr. Hou Hsiao-hsien, a master from Taiwan, brought his own work, "The Best of Time", in which the old man Bai Shiqiu also appeared. acquaintance.

"Old White!"

"Brother Zhen."

"Hahaha……"

Zhang Zhen, he is the male protagonist in the movie. The most interesting thing in this movie is that he plays three roles, and all three are male protagonists.

"The Best of Times" is talking about three eras. I don't know which one is the best.However, it can be seen from the movie that Master Hou also suffers from naming disorder. In the movie, Zhang Zhen is called Ah Zhen.

Now that Azhen is no longer in a relationship with the loud-mouthed girl, when they meet Bai Shiqiu, the two of them will of course find a bar to have a drink.

"how are things?"

"You'll know when you watch the news."

"Lao Bai, you are good at everything, you just like...I can't say, people in mainland China say this is just pretending."

"Pretend, you've done well in mainland China, you've learned all this."

"Hahaha...you, you."

"I'm just worried about that. Does the bet we made before still count?"

"Forget it! Why don't you count it!"

While drinking and chatting, Bai Shiqiu went straight to the middle of the road, fearing that Brother Zhen would forget about his previous bet on the Golden Horse Awards.

It's "Strange Silk", this movie, in Lao Bai's opinion, is absolutely a hit.

But Zhang Zhen is also a person with a temper, and now he doesn't even say brother.

"Lao Bai, let me tell you, I also invested in the film "The Silk", and with my investment, the filming is now complete! How about it?"

What else could Bai Shiqiu say, "Awesome!"

"Haha..." Zhang Zhen laughed, "Then let's set a standard. How much box office is considered a success? This... By the way, do you think, can the movie "Creepy Silk" be allowed to enter the mainland?"

"Why do you think so?"

"If possible, we can compare directly."

Not to mention, Zhang Zhen is quite aggressive, but it is a pity that this film will not be accepted.

"Impossible, ghost film, you know."

"Alas~" Zhang Zhen sighed, but he immediately thought of another way, "Is this good? Will your movie come to Taiwan?"

I can't make it, just come here.

Unfortunately, this is not possible, because Taiwan has many restrictions on mainland and Hong Kong movies, but no restrictions on Hollywood movies at all.

He couldn't go, but it gave Bai Shiqiu an inspiration.

"Brother Zhen, do you have any connections? What if my movie can go to Hong Kong?"

"Ah? This is good!"

When Zhang Zhen heard this, he was immediately happy.

Hong Kong is a great choice. Maybe the box office won't be too high, but the main purpose between the two is to compete. In addition, Zhang Zhen has many acquaintances in Hong Kong, so he can help with this matter.

Bai Shiqiu... this is definitely not taking advantage, it's just a matter of brotherhood.

So, Bai Shiqiu invited me to have a drink, and Zhang Zhen agreed and tried his best to introduce your film to Hong Kong, and that film was "Chow Tai Sin".

The two talked very happily, but soon mentioned other things.

"Old Bai, it's strange. Things about the Cannes Film Festival are extremely hot this time."

"Really?"

"Yes, I have seen many posts on the Internet, and even the United States is constantly discussing it."

"real or fake?"

"Really, this kind of film festival generally attracts some attention on the Internet, but it is not too enthusiastic. I see that European and American websites like to discuss a film alone. Besides, this is just the beginning. Now a lot of people are talking about who can win the award and whose film can enter the competition. It’s really strange.”

"That's it...how strange, hahaha..."

"It's really strange. Could it be that Cannes is going to promote the Internet?"

"Well... maybe it's because I, Lao Bai, am here."

"Huh? Like this? Hahahaha...Old Bai, you really know how to joke."

Sometimes, even if the truth is told, not everyone will believe it...

The two of them just said this, but with the development of the film festival, there have been more and more discussions on this topic, which made Cannes very happy. Could it be that our film festival has received a lot of online attention?

Can we also set up an Internet company?

Indeed, the topic is very hot, and the traditional media reporters naturally cannot lag behind. They are also constantly expressing some opinions, and the film critics are even busier. They used to just write one or two articles casually, but now, there are so many articles ah.

However, some people are quite annoying, pointing out that certain articles promoting a certain star are all produced by an Internet promotion company. In Chinese terms, they are simply masterpieces of the navy.

But immediately the big star held a press conference to refute it, saying it was a shameless frame-up!

Anyway, at the film festival, there are many reporters, so this kind of press conference is easy.

After that, there were a few more such things.

It seems that this year's Cannes is a bit chaotic.
