The conspicuous bag in China Entertainment Taohuawu

Chapter 118 Film Festival Opens

As the world's top Class A film festival, the Venice Film Festival naturally attracts a lot of attention. The appearances of Chen Xinghe and others were quickly reported back to China, triggering huge discussions.

[Sun Xing is going to be the best actor! 】

[The music above is not composed yet, it is just a nomination]

[The nomination is already very impressive. There is no domestic film without actors nominated for the top three in Europe]

[If Chen Xinghe wins the Best Actor, I mean if, then his status in the industry will not be limited to the top class]

[She is not a traffic person, her acting skills are top-notch, and she sings well. Although she doesn’t have her own songs, it’s different from Kun Kun, Cheng Cheng, etc.]

[Domestic entertainment has finally released a player who can play. Have you read the reports? Europe is also paying attention to him.]

…………

In the venue, Chen Xinghe was communicating with some foreign actors. They all recognized him from blindfolding the game. Chen Xinghe really didn't expect that a game would have such a great influence.

After the host announced the official start of the opening ceremony, the movie "As It Happens" began to play. This movie is a French film about teenage abortion. It can only be said that it is a romantic country and the filming is very French.

While Chen Xinghe was watching the movie attentively, an actor patted Chen Xinghe on the shoulder and said, "Hi Chen, my name is John Akira, just call me John. I really like the blindfolded beating you invented. Challenged.”

Filipino artist John Aguilar, who is also Asian, is one of Chen Xinghe's biggest competitors on the road to becoming the best actor. According to the news they just learned from chatting with Zhao Ting, the jury admired his performance in "Slayer 2" very much.

"Hello John, I'm Chen Xinghe. I'm very happy that you like one of my ideas."

"How is this movie? I just went to meet KR director Bong Joon-ho, but I didn't see the first part of the movie."

What does he mean? Are you here to demonstrate with me?
Director Bong Joon-ho serves as the chairman of the jury for the main competition unit at this Venice Film Festival, and has a great influence on the selection results of various awards. If he really gets through Bong Joon-ho's relationship, Chen Xinghe's probability of winning It’s really not big anymore.

"The film is very good, and director Audrey Devine's direction is very good. Of course, I am looking forward to your performance in "The Last Day 2"."

"Thank you for your expectation. Director Bong Joon-ho is the same as you. I think I will not let you down. Of course, I am also looking forward to your performance. Oh, the name "Requiem" is really cool, just like Blindfolded The beating challenge is very much like a game.

Okay, I won’t talk to you anymore, my friends from the crew are waiting for me. "After John Akira said that, he left here and returned to his seat.

"MD, you really came here to demonstrate. You are the only one who has something to do with YM, right?" After he left, Chen Xinghe cursed in his heart.

Next to him, Wen Muye enlightened Chen Xinghe, "Don't let Chen's mentality be affected. Bong Joon-ho is just the chairman of the jury. Even if he fully supports him in the final vote, he only has one vote."

"I know Director Wen."

After the opening movie was played, Chen Xinghe asked the director and learned that "Requiem" was in Hall 3, so he went to watch the movie with Wan Qian. They had not seen the finished film. Chen Xinghe wanted to see it himself. What is the specific performance in the film like?

As for Wen Mino and the two producers, they went to find the film to discuss distribution.

Arriving at Hall 3, many viewers were waiting for the movie to start playing. Except for some domestic media personnel, most of them were European viewers.

After the movie officially started, Chen Xinghe started watching it carefully.

The movie is very good. The plot, rhythm, and emotions are all very well expressed. The graphics are excellent, especially Chen Xinghe's acting skills when Meng Xiaojun learned the false news that his daughter is not him is simply amazing.

"Are my acting skills that good?" Chen Xinghe felt a little secretly happy when he saw the European audience around him shedding tears because of his emotions.

"That's great. Xinghe, I think you have a great chance of winning the award." Wan Qian, who was watching the movie with him, told him. "I'd like to lend you some good words, Sister Qian."

In the two days after the opening of the film festival, he watched several popular films in the competition and came to the conclusion that he definitely had a chance to win the award.

In the films of the same period, only John Akira could compete with him, and the acting skills of other male protagonists were not worthy of concern.

Chen Xinghe also found that many European female viewers also liked the movie "Requiem". When he watched the movie "Parallel Mother" just now, many female viewers recognized him.

As for why it attracts female audiences in Europe, just look at the picture of Chen Xinghe repairing a car with his shirtless body on the poster. The sharp, dark and muscular shark line of the eight-pack abs is so sexy!
While looking at the poster, a girl couldn't help but look up at Chen Xinghe. Her eyes seemed to want to see through his clothes to see the plump and strong muscles underneath.

Then this bold European girl came close to him and said: "Hi Chen, you are really cool. I am also learning to repair cars. Can I ask you about repairing cars?"

Looking at the strong car lights on her chest, Chen Xinghe was speechless, "I'm sorry, I don't have time to discuss car repairs with you, and I don't know how to repair cars. This is just what happened in the movie."

"Well that's a shame, but I will definitely go see the movie. Can I take a photo with you?"

"of course can."

In the next few days, Chen Xinghe did not go to the film festival venue. Instead, at Bethel's invitation, he played car racing, watched the catwalks of Milan Fashion Week, and played golf.

Of course, these are not just about eating, drinking and having fun. With his help, Chen Xinghe met with Saverio Costanzo, Virginie Efila and Cynthia Erivo at the 78th Venice Film Festival. The judges of the Festival Selection Committee met.

Except for Italian director Saverio Costanzo who did not clearly express his vote for Chen Xinghe, two Prada-owned actors Virginie Efila (France) and Cynthia Erivo (UK) both voted for Chen Xinghe. Galaxy made a promise.

All I can say is that it’s good to have resources. No wonder domestic stars, artists, directors, etc. want to establish relationships with these top brands.

In addition to Zhao Ting and Shu Qi whom he has met in private, it can only be said that half of the judges will vote for Chen Xinghe. This wave of advantage is mine, John Akira, what are you going to fight with me for?
The day before the closing ceremony, Chen Xinghe did not continue to play with Bethel. Instead, he stayed with Wen Muye and the others. "The film was sold for 600 million US dollars." Wen Muye sat on the sofa and smiled. Said, very satisfied with the price.

600 million U.S. dollars converted into RMB is almost 3700 million, which is a very good price. You must know that the production cost of this movie was less than 1000 million. The 3.7 times return rate is very exaggerated.

Back then, Chen Xinghe was not as popular as he is now, and the studio was not expensive. In addition, there were no special effects in the film, and the other supporting actors and the heroine Wan Qian were all at friendly prices, so it can be said that just this wave of foreign sales of the film has already recovered the cost.

"Congratulations, director, I think you will make another fortune when it is released in China."

"Same joy, by the way, I called your studio for 1000 million, remember to check it."

Hearing Wen Muye's words, Chen Xinghe was stunned for a moment, why are you still having sex with me?
"Literary director?"

"You have a lot of credit for the smooth sales of the film this time. Most of the film producers are here for you. This is the part you deserve."

After hearing what he said, Chen Xinghe didn't say much. As for what his credit was? This is all what he got for selling his lust!
"Literary Director, Best Director, Best Film, etc..."

Wen Muye waved his hand, "I won't think about this anymore. I asked Jia Nu's father to help you publicize the Best Actor award. With your own connections, this award will most likely go to you. of."

Hearing Wen Muye's words, Chen Xinghe became more confident. His father-in-law, Han Sanping, is a big mountain that domestic entertainment can never avoid. Although he left China Film Academy in 14, his influence in the industry is still The influence is still there, it can even be said to be very big, and I have a lot of friendship with the directors of the three major European film festivals.

Of course, it's too early to say it's stable now. We have to wait until tomorrow when the awards are awarded to know what the specific situation will be.

On September 9, local time in Venice, Chen Xinghe, Fumino Wanqian and others attended the closing ceremony and awards night.

To be continued. .
