"Daughter-in-law, I'm telling you, it's great. When you come back, I will definitely take you to fly."

In the air force guest house, Sun Yi was half leaning on the bedside and talking to Liu Yifei on the overseas phone, telling him what he had seen and heard today.

Today, Sun Yi and a group of "pilots" finally passed all the assessments and got a chance to fly. Although they were not flying alone but accompanied by a coach, they were extremely excited and couldn't wait to share it with Liu Yifei. .

"Tch, I don't believe it. Last time, someone was like a soft-footed shrimp. He couldn't move by himself, so it was up to me."

"Tsk, it's the same now. Don't worry, I won't let you find the ice cream in the refrigerator this time."

"Bah, big hooligan."

Sun Yi laughed and asked again:

"Haha, how's it going in Cannes? Are you tired?"

"Yeah, it's not bad. The Lumiere Hall has added two screenings, and the Debussy Hall has added .4 screenings, and the reviews have been rave!!"

"Oh, my wife is so awesome."

"Humph."

"Tell me, how did you do it?"

At Cannes, although Sun Yi didn't know the details of the problems Liu Yifei encountered, he still understood the lack of publicity the film faced.

It's just that when I talked to Liu Yifei every day, she always vowed that it could be solved, so Sun Yi didn't bother to intervene. Now that he heard that the movie was being screened so many times, he was very shocked and asked curiously.

"Then you have someone to thank."

"Who is it, you?"

"Your father-in-law."

"Who huh?!!! Your dad?"

"Hmm~"

"What's going on? Tell me quickly."

It turned out that it was An’s father who called Liu Yifei that day.

As a grand event in French culture and art, the Cannes International Film Festival has a tradition of inviting ambassadors from various countries to participate.

Dad An, as the first-class counselor of the Chinese Embassy in France and the director of the Confucius Institute in France, is also a well-rounded cultural figure.

He participated without telling Liu Yifei just to give his daughter a surprise.

The father and daughter met in Cannes.

Although they have been divorced for a long time, they are still flesh and blood. Dad An saw his daughter's forced smile at a glance. He thought it was Sun Yi who made his daughter unhappy. He was furious at the moment. If Sun Yi wasn't here, maybe he would Take off your belt.

Cultural people were forced to take action.

Liu Yifei shook her head repeatedly, and finally told the truth under An's father's repeated questioning.

In the past two days, she had been feeling aggrieved. The task she had volunteered to take on had been bumpy and made no progress. When her father came, she shed tears of grievance as he spoke.

This makes Father An feel distressed.

He immediately patted his chest and agreed that he would solve the matter.

How to solve it?

too easy.

If not for all the old sayings, there would be nothing difficult in this world at all.

The key is to find the right person.

The solution to this matter is for Liu Yifei to accompany An's father to a few welcome dinners as a family member.

It's not considered a pretense for personal benefit, after all, it is indeed a father-daughter relationship.

You know, in the West, banquet culture is very popular.

As the first-level counselor of the Chinese Embassy, ​​An's father had a small banquet for two days and a big banquet for three days. The banquet he attended was of a much higher level.

They are all ambassador-level figures from various countries, and they are also accompanied by senior members and chairman of the organizing committee of the Cannes Film Festival and the chairman of the jury.

There are also people from the film industry, but you can't go to the ordinary ones. They all have to be internationally renowned celebrities. When they are mentioned anywhere, they have to add "artist" after their name.

At such a banquet, Liu Yifei seemed to have opened a door, and she felt like a fish in water.

Not because of anything else, but because she "wears many hats."

Count them.

First, she has a high status and is the daughter of the counselor of the Chinese Embassy.

Second, she is also a film practitioner and a well-known Chinese actress.

Thirdly, her artistic attainments are not low either, and she was shortlisted for the heroine of this year's Cannes main competition film.

Look, it's all her.

She is also beautiful and slim, with both Eastern and Western aesthetics. Most importantly, she is proficient in Chinese, English, French and Japanese languages.

The family members of other ambassadors are either too young, have grown up, or know nothing about film art.

Looking at it this way, it is difficult for Liu Yifei not to become the focus of the banquet.

She spoke directly to the chairman of the organizing committee and the chairman of the judges.

An old French man and an old French lady both liked this little girl Liu Yifei.

She also knew how to advance and retreat, and did not make any excessive demands at all. During the chat with the two about film art, she talked about her feelings when participating in the filming of the movie "The Intouchables".

Two people with completely different identities, a spiritual redemption between each other.

The movie is adapted from a true story in France.

The 58-year-old French actor Isabelle Huppert is the president of the jury of this year's Cannes Film Festival. She is impressed by this movie and must have seen it, but she did not pay close attention to it.

There are so many films participating.

Do the math.

Even if one of the 20 shortlisted films is only 2 hours long, it will take 2 days without sleep to watch it. After all, the screening period is only 10 days in total. Even if the pre-review period is included, the total is 20 days.

As the chairperson of the jury, there are many official events that she needs to attend, so her attention to the participating films is also limited. She is very responsible to watch all the shortlisted films in one go.

But you know, if you want to discover the excellence of a movie, you need to watch it frame by frame several times or even a dozen times to see its connotation.

Therefore, the general situation is that when the award ceremony is approaching, the final decision is made based on the reputation of the media and the audience and the unanimous recommendations of several judges.

But when Liu Yifei talked to her like this at the banquet, it was different.

Just like friends recommending movies to each other, I'm curious.

She was originally not very interested in Chinese movies, but she couldn't help but start to pay attention to "The Intouchables".

This time I went back and watched carefully, and it was over.

I got to the G-spot all of a sudden.

Otherwise, everyone would say that the French are romantic.

For this kind of light and perfect fit, whether it is love or friendship, as long as they can attract each other, grow freely and resonate with each other in the soul, this kind of warm movie similar to soul mates, there is simply no resistance. ability.

As a result, "The Intouchables" was directly adjusted to the screening times. At first, it was only tried to be screened in the Lumiere Hall night screening. During this time, the screening hall was basically full.

A movie down.

It made the Frenchman cry!

She hugged Zhang Guoli with runny nose and tears. If Liu Yifei hadn't reacted quickly, she wouldn't have been able to run away. The word-of-mouth immediately exploded, and the Cannes Film News began to report it. Fans also began to spread the word and strongly requested for additional screenings. Then the organizing committee arranged another show at the Lumiere Hall and the Debussy Hall next to it. 4 more games were added.

The venue was full.

"How is it, am I amazing?"

"Yeah, my wife is so awesome. I'll reward you with a candy."

"cut."

Sun Yi really didn't expect that Liu Yifei could do it to this extent. Even if he went by himself, he wouldn't dare to say that he could do better than Xiao Nizi.

"brother"

"hold head high?"

"I realize now that running a movie is not that simple. You worked hard before."

Listening to Liu Yifei's tone on the phone, something was wrong. Sun Yi quickly asked: "What's wrong?"

Liu Yifei told all the things she had encountered before with a bit of grievance.

"Oh, Harvey, this old dog, just wants to take advantage. He just wants to get the copyright for 1000 million. He just wants to eat shit. When I go, I will have to kill him."

"Yeah, yes, kill him hard."

In fact, Harvey has already regretted it. As a shrewd film businessman, he was the first to discover the potential of "The Untouchables", so he wanted to steal Liu Yifei's chicken before Sun Yi came and get the overseas rights in advance, but Unexpectedly, Liu Yifei used some method to get the organizing committee to strengthen the promotion of this film.

Now it was good, word-of-mouth immediately exploded. According to the news he knew, a group of European film producers were secretly competing for this film. Even if it didn't win the award in the end, they still wanted to buy it.

No way, the emotions shown in the movie are too consistent with Europeans, a place where the Virgin's heart is overflowing.

Looking at it this way, he might be kicked out by Sun Yi.

I regret it, why were you so greedy!

"By the way, daughter-in-law, who else are you talking about, who asked you to make a movie?"

"Lou Ye."

"What movie is he in?"

"A script called "Flower" is adapted from the novel of the same name."

"Wait, I'll check."

Sun Yi took the notebook he carried with him and checked online.

Don't tell me, there really is a female writer named Liu Jie.

Sun Yi felt a little guilty.

It seems that women with Jie in their names are not ordinary warriors.

Hey, I am an alumnus of Beijing Film Academy. I later received a French government scholarship and stayed in France.

The novel tells the story of a Sino-French love affair that bloomed in the capital and faded. The heroine decided to quit her job as a teacher and went to Paris to find her boyfriend. However, she still failed to change her mind. Then she met the second male lead, a water pipe repairman, in France. Worker, was raped by him, the heroine fell in love with the second male by mistake, but was still abandoned. Finally, she returned to China, found her childhood sweetheart, the third male, got married, and then buried her brave love.

If I rub him the wrong way, it's just a waste of time.

This is a novel by an independent female writer in the new era, and it has received rave reviews.

Thousands of miles to send X!

Anyway, there are still honest people in China who know the truth and can boldly pursue free love.

"This Goubi asked you to make this movie. Damn it. I'm going to book a plane ticket right now. I can't stand it anymore. I have to kill him!"

This guy specializes in cheating on actresses, and he even claims that everything he does is for art.

Damn it, why do you like to find big-name female stars for the sake of art? Isn't it just to attract attention, to be popular, and finally to make money?

Hao Lei is a good example at the beginning. The Thirteenth Aunt in "Once Upon a Time" was so good. She could be said to be on par with Guan Zhilin, but she was fooled into making a banned film because of this dog. His great career as an actor was ruined, and he slowly made a comeback more than ten years later.

Now he actually had his evil intentions on his own wife, and Sun Yi couldn't let him go no matter what.

Sun Yi cursed loudly, jumped out of bed and started to get dressed.

Liu Yifei on the other side of the phone heard the popping sound and was confused for a moment, then smiled knowingly and asked:

"Oh, are you jealous?"

Sun Yi had just put on his trousers, holding the zipper with one hand and grabbing his mobile phone with a stunned expression.

"What's the matter, Liu Qianqian, I hear what you mean, do you still want to shoot?"

Liu Yifei pursed her lips and snickered, raised her eyebrows, and said to the phone:

"Hmm~ I have some ideas."

"If you dare, I'll break your legs!"

"Oh, given your ability, you still dare to fight with me?!"

"you you you."

Sun Yi was speechless for a moment, grabbing his cell phone and circling around the room anxiously.

"You can't be afraid anyway, you hear me!"

"Liu Qianqian, are you talking!?"

After waiting for a long time, Liu Yifei finally couldn't help it anymore and laughed out loud on the phone.

"Hahaha, hubby, I want to see what your expression is like now. It must be very interesting. Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I didn't want to make this movie. I'm satisfied, little hubby!"

"No, I can't believe it. I have to book a flight immediately and come over to see you."

"Have you finished filming your movie?"

"Slap your ass. If you shoot it again, your wife will be gone."

"Gluck cluck."

By the way, Lou Ye is still waiting for Liu Yifei to come and agree to be the heroine of his next movie. He has always felt that his movies are the greatest interpretation of art.

But nowadays, when the market is not good, artists also have to eat.

Therefore, I chose to find some famous actors to star in my own films. Anyway, they are fooling one after another. Which actress doesn’t want to win an award, right?

And it should preferably have passionate scenes, as the audience loves to watch this.

Art is taboo.

But he waited and waited, but before Liu Yifei's consent, suddenly the entire trend in Cannes changed.

"Untouchable" immediately emerged as a new force and occupied the largest publicity space.

When I looked at the screening schedule, I saw that there was one more show than his "Spring Breeze Night", all of which were moved to night shows, and there was even an additional screening in the Debussy Hall next door.

He was immediately dumbfounded.

What's wrong with this world? Can a young man in his 20s make a film that is better than his own?

Is the level of movie fans this year so low?

Only after he sneaked in to watch a movie and looked at the cheering fans all over the place did he realize it.

It seems that he is the one who made the mistake.
