"'War Paradise' is a heavy story, and the script and narration were used to create an unparalleled beauty. It deserves the best director." Giancarlo also expressed his attitude, and Chiara agreed with it.

Sam was a little speechless now as he watched the situation change to four to four.

For the movie "War Paradise", you will understand everything if you take a closer look at the sponsors.

This film was produced by Da Mao, Germany and the European Jewish Fund.

Therefore, Europeans recommend it, but Americans and British are indifferent to it.

What? Are the British Europeans too? hehe! It is nothing more than a turmoil in continental Europe.

But the movie just takes the right position and makes both Liu Yifei and Lorenzo stand on its side.

Sam hummed at this moment to attract everyone's attention.

"Everyone, let's give the Best Director Award to these two films!" He was going to be optimistic.

"What?" A group of people looked at Sam in surprise, and then looked at Liu Yifei subconsciously.

Liu Yifei looked at them without any hesitation. It was Zhang Yang who sent out the double-yolked eggs in Berlin, not me. What do you think I'm doing?
The clever thing about the scene now is that there are four against four, and they can all accept Sam's proposal, so the double yolk egg for best director appears.

The subsequent jury prize went to "Nocturnal Animals" without any surprise.

Now all that's left is the Golden Lion for Best Picture.

Previously, "The First Lady" won the best screenplay, "Outstanding Citizen" won the best actor, and "La La Land" won the best actress.

The Golden Lion immediately became a competition between "Joker" and "The Woman Who Got Away."

Liu Yifei was the first to speak out: "I think "Joker" is the best candidate for this year's Golden Lion Award. Although this movie is a DC movie, it is completely different from ordinary superhero movies.

There are no special effects, no spectacle and not even many fighting scenes. This is actually a quite serious film that focuses on social issues on another level. "

A group of people all smiled when they heard Liu Yifei's speech, including Sam.

Gemma nodded in agreement: "I agree with Crystal's point of view. The movie's plot rhythm is perfect, its connotation and tension are perfect, its artistic drama is perfect, and its character creation is a perfect score among perfect scores. It is definitely worthy of the Golden Lion Award."

Liu Yifei looked at this Gemma who was one year older than herself in surprise.

Unexpectedly, she spoke so highly of the movie that even a foreigner started using parallels. She wouldn't be interested in Zhang Yang!
“I have to admit that director Zhang Yang has made another classic movie.

But in fact, "The Woman Leaving" is also good. It has a single main narrative, fixed shots, and no soundtrack, but it is not difficult to endure for four hours. The director's narrative structure is worth recalling. Laurie did not express her disagreement fiercely. As a documentary director, she liked the style of "The Woman Leaving".

"I feel the same way. This movie is a prophecy about redemption, the mutual redemption of marginalized people in society." Joshua agreed with Lowry's point of view.

"Forgive me for telling the truth. I was a little distracted watching the four-hour movie that day, but after being distracted for a while, I watched the movie again and had no problem understanding it." Giancarlo once again proposed from the perspective of a writer. his opinion.

"It's true. If this movie was two hours or three hours, I might have a hard time choosing, but it's four hours." Lozoren shrugged.

"I just want to say that in the movie "Joker", I was conquered by Phoenix's performance. Now I can't tell whether this movie sublimated Phoenix or Phoenix sublimated this movie." Chiara told Phoenix praised fiercely.

Nina nodded in agreement after hearing this. The current situation is very obvious. The eight judges 6:2, the movie "Joker" has an absolute advantage. After discussing for a while, several people looked at Sam. They wanted to hear from the chairman. Sir's opinion.

"I think you have already given me the answer. Crystal, you may be the final award guest, but don't tell him the answer in advance tonight." Sam said to Liu Yifei with a smile.

"Sam, you should believe in my professionalism." Liu Yifei looked serious.

"Crystal, congratulations. Director Zhang Yang made history in Venice after making history at the Oscars. He is the first director to win three Golden Lions at the Venice Film Festival." Luo Zuolun congratulated Liu Yifei.

In the current history of the Venice Film Festival, Andre Cayet, Louis Malle, Lao Mouzi and Zhang Yang have all won two Golden Lions.

After Zhang Yang won another one this year, he will be the only one to win three Golden Lions. It's a pity that they are not consecutive, which would be even more amazing!

"You should congratulate Zhang Yang, not me." Liu Yifei replied with a smile. She smiled very happily, like a blooming peony.

Today's film selection was discussed for almost a day and was finally completed at four o'clock in the afternoon.

After the jury submitted the list to the executive committee, Liu Yifei was indeed asked to be the guest presenter for the final award. This ready-made popularity is in vain.

Film festival officials can already predict the high ratings and popularity of this film festival.

After finishing the review, Liu Yifei walked out of the building, got in the car with her assistant and female bodyguard and rushed to the hotel.

The assistant turned to look at Liu Yifei in the passenger seat: "Sister Yifei, Director Zhang is already here."

"He was finally willing to come over." Liu Yifei laughed again when she heard the news. She was laughing constantly today.

She thought Zhang Yang would come after he was busy with afternoon sun affairs, but she called him after he finished his work and said that he was going to see the new director.

After meeting the new director, he said that he would take care of the child again. It was really endless. Didn’t she want to spend time with the child? Besides, doesn’t Zhang Yang want to accompany her?

Lido Island is only so big, so Liu Yifei returned to the hotel in less than ten minutes.

After arriving, she quickly walked to her room.

After she opened the door, she looked everywhere but saw no one.

Zhang Yang was wandering around the island with his assistant at this time. Although he had been to this place many times, it was still fresh after not seeing him for a year.

Besides, looking at the vast expanse of the sea is also refreshing.

"You come and shout twice." Zhang Yang suggested to the assistant beside him while walking on the beach.

The assistant looked at Zhang Yang with a puzzled look on his face, and Zhang Yang waved his hand to stop. In fact, he wanted to shout a few times, but if he shouted, it would be on the news tomorrow.

He raised his hand to check the time. It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon. He put down his arm and looked at his assistant: "Let's buy some Cicchetti to take back." Cicchetti is the most famous snack chowder in Venice, with fresh seafood, various A variety of fillings and classic Italian cheeses.

Of course, Zhang Yang definitely mainly buys seafood. Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei’s favorite is fried sardines.

Soon the group bought two portions of sardines in a cafe and took them back.

Zhang Yang ate one of them while walking, and it was almost six o'clock when he arrived at the hotel.

When he returned to his room, Liu Yifei was running in the gym.

Zhang Yang put the untouched sardines on the table, then took the bag he ate, opened the gym door and looked at Liu Yifei,
He was leaning against the door, taking sardines from the paper bag and stuffing them into his mouth, while saying vaguely: "It's not easy to be so self-conscious after coming to Venice!"

When Liu Yifei saw Zhang Yang, she slowed down the speed of the treadmill and gasped: "How can I not be as handsome as you? What are you eating?"

She moved her nose as she spoke: "Sarde in Saor?"

This is the local name for fried sardines. In addition to sardines, it also contains onions, raisins, and pine nuts. You can easily smell it.

"Yeah, but it's almost gone. Fortunately, we have to go to dinner."

Liu Yifei immediately stopped the treadmill, walked quickly to Zhang Yang, and looked into the paper bag in his hand. It was full of onions, which neither Zhang Yang nor she would eat.

Liu Yifei didn't believe that Zhang Yang was so selfish, and immediately walked to the hall of the room. Sure enough, there was a bag of untouched snacks placed there.
She picked up a piece of sardine with disposable chopsticks, put it into her mouth, and chewed it. She narrowed her eyes while chewing, looking like she was enjoying it.

Zhang Yang saw that Liu Yifei found out and didn't show any special expression. He threw the paper bag in his hand into the trash can, then walked to the hall and looked at Liu Yifei, who squinted his eyes: "What award will I win tomorrow?"

"No comment!" Liu Yifei said seriously.

"Then will you win any prize tomorrow?"

"No comment."

"I'm going to eat, so you can just stay here and have nothing to say!" Zhang Yang said deliberately when he saw Liu Yifei's demeanor.

After he finished speaking, he walked out of the room.

As a result, Liu Yifei didn't respond. Instead, she sat down on the sofa and ate snacks slowly.

Zhang Yang took two steps without looking back: "Hurry up and change your clothes."

Liu Yifei hummed, then put down the snacks and went back to the bedroom to change clothes.

Soon the two of them went to the restaurant together, but Liu Yifei still had snacks in her hand. After dinner, the two of them went for a walk as usual.

I didn't meet any acquaintances from China this time, but Zhang Yang's assistant received the call as expected.

When he told Zhang Yang about this, both Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei were unfazed.

They were still walking slowly. Zhang Yang remembered something at this time and asked Liu Yifei beside him: "Have you gone to see your dad?"

"It's possible to find time to participate in interviews these days, but there's no time to fly to Paris."

"Then we'll go see him the day after tomorrow."

"Okay." Liu Yifei nodded.

In the blink of an eye, it was already around five o'clock in the afternoon the next day. Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei went to the movie palace together. When they arrived, they all had a pleasant chat as usual.

Zhang Yang took the initiative to hug Phoenix. At this time, Warner executives invited Zhang Yang: "Director, the premiere of our "Joker" is initially scheduled for November 11th. Remember to come over then."

"Okay." Zhang Yang nodded in agreement.

Liu Yifei saw her group of judges at this time, turned to look at Zhang Yang and said casually: "I'm going over."

Zhang Yang nodded again. After Liu Yifei left, he looked around him. There were actually three men from the "Joker" crew walking the red carpet together.

He couldn't help complaining to Phoenix: "My wife is here, and I actually want to walk on the red carpet with you two grown men."

Phoenix and Warner executives all laughed.

The red carpet at the closing ceremony was even simpler and ended in less than half an hour.

Zhang Yang and the others were placed in front seats again. I don’t know if it was because of Zhang Yang and Phoenix, or if there was some hint.

More than forty minutes passed by in a flash. Units such as Horizon ended and the main competition unit officially began.

The judges of the main competition unit who were sitting in the audience also officially started to take the stage. When the host announced Sam Mendes' name, the applause was the warmest.

The next few judges didn't react much, but when she said crystal, the applause started again.

Liu Yifei was wearing a black dress today with a string of pearl necklaces around her neck. When she heard the warm applause from the audience, she turned back and waved before walking onto the stage again.

At this time, the entire live broadcast suddenly switched to Zhang Yang. They understand the audience.

Zhang Yang just raised his head and smiled at the camera, but made no other moves.

After Sam's speech, the award ceremony for the main competition unit officially began.

The first prize in the main competition unit is still the Marcelo Mastroianni Best Newcomer Award.

The winner is Paula Bell, a 22-year-old woman. She will be the queen in Berlin in 2020, so this award is somewhat of a reference.
