Chapter 134 Opening Ceremony, Cannes Premiere
As soon as Li Mu led the team to the hotel prepared by the Cannes government, reporters from left and right surrounded Li Mu and others in circles.

But most of the interviewers asked questions about Li Mu and Liu Yifei.

No way, Li Mu's international reputation is several levels higher than the others, and Liu Yifei now frequently appears in international reports.

Although Shu Chang, Zeng Li and others have little visibility in Cannes, reporters still asked a few questions dedicatedly.

Li Mu casually dealt with a few reporters and then led the crew to the hotel. During the ten-hour flight, the crew was also jet-lagged and had no energy to deal with the bunch of reporters outside.

There will be plenty of media and plenty of time at tomorrow's opening ceremony. At least with Li Mu leading the team, there will be no chance of being chased away.

The news that Li Mu arrived in Cannes with the crew has spread to the outside world, and many in the media are from China.

"Li Mu and his crew have arrived at the Cannes Film Festival!"

"Actresses from all over the world compete in Cannes."

The opening ceremony the next day was indeed grand, with hundreds of meters of red carpet laid outside the Lumiere Palace.

Li Mu and others arrived not too early. At this time, filmmakers attending Cannes were boarding the red carpet one after another, smiling and taking photos.

Li Mu looked at the people around him. Duan Yihong, like himself, was wearing a black suit, calm and solemn.

Liu Yifei is wearing a pure white dress. Her skin is so white that it looks like snow. Paired with various accessories, she looks aloof and fresh, as if she has stepped out of a painting.

Even though Li Mu had been looking at it for a long time, he felt amazed in an instant.

Not to mention the people traveling with us.

"Sissi, please leave later. How can I live like this?" Shu Chang cried.

Zeng Li and others covered their mouths and snickered, and the cheerful atmosphere in the crew instantly rose.

"Look for a fight, sing, sing, sing." Liu Yifei rushed over and made a commotion in the car.

Li Mu took Liu Yifei's hand and took her out of the car.

Shu Chang, Zeng Li, Yuan Quan, and Yan Danchen all had their own dresses, all adding a bit of color to the Lumière Palace.

As soon as Li Mu and others arrived at the red carpet, people nearby were already commotion.

There are several stars stopping every 20 meters on the [-]-meter red carpet, waving, smiling, and taking photos, all in one go.

Naturally, those with larger slots will not be evicted, while those with smaller slots will be directed to move forward by the organizer staff if they stay too long.

As for the people on the red carpet, the staff were not vegetarians. They were sharp-eyed and quickly drove them away.

Before the red carpet, there were already two actresses competing for beauty.

Zhang Ziyi wore a red floor-length gown, while Monica Bellucci wore a black gauze gown. The two were back to back, which was particularly eye-catching.

After all, Monica Bellucci was plump, but after Li Mu took a closer look, it seemed that the Italian goddess had gained a lot of weight. Is it because of the filming of "To Kill All"?

Looking further ahead, we see Maggie Cheung, who has been away from the film industry for a long time, and is also one of the nine judges in Cannes this time.

The Cannes judges are not allowed to have contact with the outside world after the opening ceremony. This has always been Cannes's rule. This is also the few free time the other party has these days.

Li Mu felt that a pair of eyes beside him had been paying attention to him, seeming to be watching where he was looking.

You don't need to look at Li Mu to know who it is, except Liu Yifei, I'm afraid there's no one else.

"Let's go." Li Mu led Liu Yifei towards the red carpet.

Li Mu's appearance caused many media to shout the names of Li Mu and Liu Yifei on both sides of the red carpet and criticize the filming.

At this time, the higher the reputation abroad, the longer it takes to take photos.

It goes without saying that Li Mu is treated first-class wherever he goes.

Yifei Liu has already been a part of several Hollywood movies, and the latest one has even made it onto the film history list.

The reporters came here and did their homework.

Shu Chang, Zeng Li and others also benefited from it. After all, they are members of the same crew.

Many female celebrities also looked over with envious expressions.

You must know that the Cannes media take photos based on your popularity. Some people you don't know will not even want to press the shutter button of the camera.

In other words, the photographers in my country will know how to take some pictures for you.

Li Mu thought it was almost time and it was time to move forward, so he took a few steps.

The staff quickly motioned to him and Liu Yifei to stay and explained that there were many media still filming, so please wait a moment.

Zeng Li and others were secretly surprised when they saw it, because they had seen from domestic news and videos that some celebrities were asked for permission because they stayed too long.

This is the first time I've seen it, so I asked for permission to stay a little longer.

"Have you ever seen this happen?" Zeng Li whispered to Yuan Quan and others beside him.

"I have only seen people asked to leave quickly, but I have never seen people asked to stay." Yuan Quan took photos with a smile on his face, but his voice could still be heard clearly among several people.

"We've all been here for a few minutes. The others would have been driven away long ago." Yan Danchen counted the time. The people in front were already a little far away, and they were still staying in the same place.

The ones behind didn’t come in either.

In desperation, Li Mu had to wait for a while with Liu Yifei and others before walking straight ahead. The front was already empty, and the camera was always focused on them.

Domestic text messages have always been stuck on, "Li Mu and the crew appeared on the red carpet."

Then came the red carpet pictures of Li Mu, Liu Yifei, Shu Chang and others.

Originally, the next team would appear every few minutes, but after waiting for a long time, there was still no text message. "Is this Zhalang stuck? How many minutes has it been?"

"It's absolutely stuck."

Netizens commented below one after another, waiting to see the text message, and then the red carpet outfits of the actresses were sent back, but it was not updated at this time.

After a while, the text message was updated.

"Li Mu and the crew were rushed to take photos by many media!"

"Fuck!!!" netizens commented one after another.

It took a while before the text message from the next pair of people walking on the red carpet appeared.

Many people came from China, such as Gong Li, Wang Jiawei and his wife, Michelle Yeoh, Bai Ling, Chen Kaige, Li Yang.
Li Mu was not surprised to see Brother Chen Kai. Brother Chen Kai had just returned from Japan a few days ago. He talked about "Mei Lanfang" in every symposium. I heard that the venues were full.

However, Li Mu had no time to reminisce with Brother Chen Kai at this time, because the host was already introducing Li Mu's works.

"What is coming is the main competition unit work: the creative team of "Unreachable You", director Li and actors Shu Chang and Zeng Li."

Another host then read: "Director Li Mu holds the Oscar for Best Screenplay and Best Picture, and his recent film has entered the global box office list."

Yuan Quan, Zeng Li and others listened to this series of introductions and compared them with their own introductions. They were simply too shabby.

The beautiful eyes of many female celebrities present were fixed on Li Mu. This was really a piece of Tang Monk meat, and it was the most delicious kind.

When Liu Yifei saw the fiery looks in the eyes of the nearby actresses, she suddenly felt that there was a danger and tightened her grip on Li Mu.

Li Mu felt as if his hand was about to sink in.

After the host's introduction, Li Mu and others also arrived at the designated assembly point.

As for the interviews, the organizers have reserved enough sessions and there is no rush for interviews at the opening ceremony.

The opening film was Wang Jiawei's English film "Blueberry Nights", which screened for more than 90 minutes.

In Li Mu's summary, this movie is probably a story about a confused sect girl, a widow and a gambler girl, three women exploring their minds. It is cliché and outdated.

This kind of love is unreal.

However, Wang Jiawei's camera sense is worth learning from Li Mu's opinion. It has a perfect jazz sense and uses very advanced techniques.

After the opening ceremony was completed, time was reserved for photocall + press conference. Li Mu and the crew also made a special trip to accept interviews from major media.

These days, the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys.

"The Intouchables" is still a literary film and needs more exposure to support its popularity.

Domestic and foreign reporters have long been looking forward to it. After all, every work in the main competition unit is a key interview target.

However, domestic works are even more important to Chinese journalists.

"Director Li, are you confident of winning awards at Cannes this time?"

"I must have confidence, it just depends on what kind of award it is." Li Mu replied with a smile.

"What kind of work is "The Intouchables"? Will it be favored by the jury?"

"If you want to know more about science fiction romance films, then come to the premiere of "The Intouchables". As for whether you can be watched in person, I believe in the artistic accomplishments of each judge and they will select the best movie of."

"This is also the first time for Yifei to participate in Cannes as a producer. How does it feel? What are your expectations?" When Li Mu heard this question, he knew that it was a friendly domestic media asking the question.

"I'm very happy. The movie atmosphere in Cannes is really good. Being a producer is also a big try. Of course, I'm most looking forward to winning the award."

Liu Yifei smiled sweetly and answered calmly.

The actors were also asked a lot about the movie, but they were rarely asked about other topics.

After all, what Li Mu brought was not Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi, who were full of hot topics. The only hot topic was probably the eight-year itch between Yuan Quan and Xia Yu.

However, foreign countries are not interested in these, and domestic people are not very interested. After all, winning awards is more important at this time.

"The Intouchables" begins its Cannes premiere.

When Li Mu and others entered the theater, the audience stood up and applauded to welcome the creators. This is the audience's respect for the creative team.

The seats of the main creators are all in the middle of the auditorium, and the chairs will have the names of the main creators.

Li Mu led the crew to stand and signal to the audience for the media to take photos, and then sat down to watch the movie.

The theater was packed with people, including film producers, directors, and actors.
Film producers account for the vast majority. After all, whether this film can create enough value for them can only be known after watching the film.

"The Unreachable" is a utopian love story, in which a literary man falls in love with an AI and finally sinks into this world.

In the theater, as time passed, many women took out tissues and wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes.

When the film producers saw this scene, they also had preliminary predictions in their minds.

At the end of the movie, Li Mu once again led the crew to stand up and receive applause from the audience.

Here Li Mu felt the world's respect for movies.

It was also the first time for Liu Yifei and others to experience it, and they lamented the various detailed arrangements in Cannes.

Participation in the post-screening reception and Chinese movie night after the premiere is optional.

As for street photography and interviews, Li Mu asked the crew for their opinions. No one wanted to continue filming and interviews, so Li Mu naturally wouldn't look for trouble.

Li Mu directly led the team to participate in the Chinese Movie Night.
