China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 180 Fan Xiaopang becomes the Queen+Beijing Film’s traditional projects

"The air abroad is not as sweet as imagined."

After Li Yu got out of the car, he felt that the air abroad was mediocre.

Fan Xiaopang, who was standing nearby, looked at Li Yu with a strange look: "Is this the first time Director Li has gone abroad?"

The current Fan Xiaopang certainly doesn’t understand the sweetness of the air in later generations.

But she was right. This was indeed Li Yu's first time abroad.

Fan Xiaopang proudly puffed up his chest in front of Li Yu.

She finally found some sense of superiority in front of Li Yu.

Li Yu is inferior to her in one way.

As one of the most popular actors in China, she holds passports from multiple countries and traveling abroad is commonplace.

Fan Xiaopang was about to show off in front of Li Yu and make fun of Li Yu, a 'native' who was going abroad for the first time.

Unexpectedly, Li Yu suddenly said sadly: "I also want to go abroad more and see the outside world, but I am too busy!
  I became a director at the age of 19, and I will be 23 in a few days. In the past few years, I have either been filming or on the way to filming.

A movie earns 10 million, tens of millions, or nearly 100 million, with ups and downs, and ups and downs. "

Fan Xiaopang: "..."

This pretense caught her off guard!

The slight sense of pride that had just risen in her heart disappeared in an instant!
  She even started to feel inferior. How could she still think about making fun of Li Yu, a 'local cannon' who was going abroad for the first time?

The Cannes Film Festival lasts for 12 days, starting on Wednesday and ending on the following Sunday.

The process of the Cannes Film Festival generally consists of forming the jury - classification review - watching the film - discussion and review - voting - announcing the results, etc.

The day when the results are announced is the closing ceremony, and it is also the day when you walk on the red carpet.

In addition to participating in the film festival's activities, Li Yu and his party traveled around the city of Cannes in the past ten days and ate many French meals.

As one of the most famous cuisines in the West, French food is unique in addition to its small quantity.

However, as a person with a Chinese stomach, Li Yu just wanted to try Western food for a few meals. If he was asked to eat every meal, he really couldn't bear it.

By the way, he really didn't even want to touch the famous French dishes of baked snails and grilled snails.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed, and we finally waited for the day of the closing ceremony.

Today is the day to announce the winners.

As the leading actors of "The Sun", Fan Xiaopang and Zu Feng were very nervous.

After waiting for more than ten days, the day they had been waiting for finally arrived.

They put in a hundred and twenty percent effort when acting in this movie.

This movie is one of their hardest-working and most desperate movies, and they certainly hope to be recognized by the Cannes jury.

The Cannes Film Festival usually announces the Palme d'Or, its highest honor award.

This is recognized as one of the most valuable and important awards in the international film industry.

Director Chen directly became a god after winning the Palme d'Or.

At his peak, even Zhang Yingmou was a photographer beside him, and to put it bluntly, he was working for him.

That’s why Director Chen and Zhang Yingmou never deal with them!

A person who once worked for me has climbed up on top of me. The psychological gap is indeed a bit big. Who can feel comfortable?
  This year's Palme d'Or winning film is "Wind in the Wheat Waves" co-produced by Ireland and other countries.

In addition to announcing some awards one after another, the organizers finally came to the Best Actress Award.

This is the award that "The Sun" is most likely to win, and it is also the award that Li Yu and his team are most concerned about.

Fan Xiaopang was so nervous that a lot of sweat broke out on her palms. Li Yu, who was holding her hand, could clearly feel her nervousness. "Congratulations to binbinfan from China for winning the Best Actress Award at the 59th International Film Festival."

"Let us congratulate the crew of "Secret of the Sun" from China!"

The moment the organizer announced the result, Fan Xiaopang burst into tears, literally.

She actually blocked it.

Li Yu helped her win a Cannes Best Actress award with a movie, allowing her to win the highest award in her career.

"Director Li, you are too strong, you really won a Best Actress. When the news reaches China, the media must not go crazy?"

As a director, Li Muge knows exactly what these achievements mean.

For such an award-winning literary and artistic film, the person who benefits the most is definitely director Li Yu.

A successful actress once again proves how strong Li Yu is in being an actor.

In the past, Li Yu was the one who made a certain actress famous.

This time Li Yu directly asked Fan Xiaopang to be the winner at the Cannes Film Festival.

The gold content of the actress's golden touch has been raised to several levels.

Fan Xiaopang wiped away the tears on his face and went on stage to receive the award, with a happy smile on his face.

"I am very grateful to the jury for awarding this award to me. This Best Actress Award is the most important trophy I have won since my debut ten years ago!
  Thank you, Director Li Yu, for giving me the opportunity to receive the award on stage. Thank you..."

Fan Xiaopang's emotional intelligence is very good, and he has thanked everyone who should be thanked.

After giving an acceptance speech, Fan Xiaopang returned to the audience with the Best Actress trophy.

Zu Feng, Li Muge and others immediately reached out to touch the trophy.

This is the trophy for the best actress in Cannes! Don’t be too rare!
  In China, if they want to get the same trophy, they have to go to Manshen.

But the awards that will be handed out next have nothing to do with "The Sun".

"The Sun" only won one Best Actress award.

Although it is a bit regretful, for Li Yu, a director making a literary film for the first time, this result is already very good.

Moreover, the plot of the movie "The Sun" revolves around the heroine, so it is normal for there to be only one Best Actress award.

This concludes the closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival.

The list of winners made front-page news in France and other European countries, and it took less than a day to spread back to China.

“The crew of ‘Soleil’ had a great trip to Cannes!”

"Fan Xiaopang, the heroine of the domestic film "The Sun", won the Best Actress Award at Cannes."

"After Man Shen, there is another Cannes Best Actress in China."

"Li Yu is worthy of being a professional in promoting female stars. He can not only make female stars famous, but also make them international movie queens."

Domestic media highly praised "The Sun" for its outstanding performance at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

Compared with the liveliness of the mainland media, the media in Hong Kong Island and Taiwan Province are collectively silent!
  A dozen days ago they were making a fuss about Li Yu's trip to Cannes, which was a joke.

They would never have imagined that Li Yu would return in triumph with fruitful results.

Teacher Gao, who was in an office in the teaching building of Beijing Film Academy, was happy and excited when he heard the news. He could help Li Yu apply for some traditional programs of Beijing Film Academy.

For example, hang a banner.

"The Sun" has a Best Actress trophy and is already eligible to hang a banner.

Especially directors like Li Yu, who has a pure directing background, must celebrate in a big way.
