Entering the Chinese entertainment industry is like entering a deep sea

Chapter 546: Red Carpet Overturn Warning to Pan'er
There was only one day between Zhang Yimou's "The Flowers of War" passing the review and being shortlisted.

This was something that everyone had expected. The terrible movie "Three Guns" still easily made it into the main competition.

What’s more, it was a highly anticipated film, “The Flowers of War”. Before setting off, Li Chen and Zhang Yimou attended the Golden Lion Banquet held by 13 producers for “The Flowers of War”.

In the banquet hall of China Film, Han Sanping, as the host, took the lead and raised a glass of wine and said, "Come on, let's wish Yimou to win the Golden Lion again this time and make a good start in his attempt to win the Oscar."

In the circle, Han Sanping almost always calls any big director by his name.

Not to mention celebrities and artists, calling you by your name is a sign of respect for you.

Li Chen, Zhang Yimou, Yu Dong, Wang Changtian and a dozen other people stood up one after another.

"Director Zhang, immediate success!"

"Director Zhang, the lion was captured in Venice!"

Everyone's auspicious words came one after another.

"Thank you. Thank you." Lao Mouzi kept smiling and nodding to express his gratitude.

Zhang Yimou and Li Chen sat next to Han Saping.

Han Sanping put down his wine glass and gave Li Chen a stern look: "Even if you don't come, Huabiao, you have to let Yang Siwei go on your behalf, and you have to have a correct attitude."

"The Invisible Guest" was nominated for Outstanding Feature Film and Outstanding Director.

In addition, many films produced by Rongchen Pictures have received one or two excellent nominations.

Li Chen nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Han, I know the rules."

"You understand? If you understood, you wouldn't fly to Venice tomorrow!" Han Sanping snorted coldly.

As luck would have it, Li Chen was not in Beijing during these two Huabiao sessions, and Yang Siwei was the representative instead.

Li Chen picked up the wine glass and said without further ado: "Director Han, I toast you. I hope that our Chinese films will continue to flourish."

Han Sanping picked up the wine glass unhappily. There was something else behind Li Chen's words, how could he not understand it?

But Li Chen had always respected him, so he couldn't say anything more.

Young people are rich, powerful and talented, so it is inevitable that they become a little arrogant.

But he still has to remind us what he should remind us.

Everyone knows why Huabiao does not award the best but only the excellent. But in the eyes and hearts of these big directors, they always feel it is embarrassing to stand with a group of people to receive the award.

Li Chen also thought so, and Han Sanping actually understood it very well.

After all, they are Zhang Yimou, Li Chen, and of course Chen Kaige and others.

He has won the three major international awards, so it doesn’t affect his status even if he doesn’t win the Huabiao.

In fact, not only big directors, but also some veteran actors and artists have complaints.

It’s just that the Huabiao has a special meaning, and you won’t be able to ferment radical remarks and opinions.

The next morning, Li Chen, Liu Yifei, Zhang Yimou, Nini and other main creators of "The Flowers of War" rushed to Venice.

Reporters had been waiting at the airport for a long time, but unfortunately they didn't even see a trace of Mou and Li.

It was Nini's first time to take a private jet, and everything about it felt new to her.

Zhang Yimou did not bring the two young actors from "The Flowers of War", Zhang Xinyi and Huang Tianyuan.

He only brought Nini, Han Xiting and Tong Dawei.

"How come you haven't gained any weight since giving birth?"

Liu Yifei blushed and thought to herself, "Why haven't you gained weight? Li Chen loves her breasts even more."

"I gained weight right after giving birth, but I've been doing some light exercise in the past two months." Liu Yifei explained reluctantly.

"I don't know if I will gain weight after giving birth to a baby. I will be thankful if I can be like you. Where are we going?" Nini asked curiously, holding Liu Yifei's arm.

She has a carefree and outgoing personality, and became familiar with Liu Yifei in just a few words.

Tong Dawei, who was somewhat knowledgeable, guessed, "This should be a dedicated ground staff."

From the moment they got off the bus, they were served by special staff. In addition to the special porter, the two people in front of them were probably the ground staff responsible for checking in the plane.

Li Chen and Zhang Yimou were walking in front. When they heard Tong Dawei's words, Li Chen turned around and glanced at Tong Dawei.

Tong Dawei smiled awkwardly and said, "Did I guess wrong, Director Li?"

"That's right. In fact, compared to ordinary flights, private jets have changed from one-to-many service to one-to-one service. There's nothing special about it." Li Chen explained with a smile.

Nini and Han Xiting both shrank their necks. Although they were familiar with Liu Yifei, they were still in awe of Director Li.

Han Xiting whispered in Nini's ear: "It feels like a one-stop service!"

Nini nodded heavily: "I think so too."

All the formalities have been completed and the special car is waiting outside.

He pulled everyone directly to the apron where Li Chen’s private jet was parked.

Nini, Han Xiting and several female assistants were all extremely excited.

"It would be great if I could take Director Li's private jet next time I travel."

"You wish. This is just a drop in the road. Do you think you are the boss lady?"

A few girls were chattering, and when they got on the plane they felt like bumpkins coming to the city.

"Is this a plane? Why do I feel like I'm in a high-end hotel with a bar?"

"These seats are all made of leather, so soft."

"When I think about sitting in the air and drinking red wine, I feel so excited that it feels like a dream."

Liu Yifei was dragged around by several girls and was in a very good mood.

In fact, when she sat there for the first time, she was similar to these girls, seeing everything was new to her. Li Chen, Zhang Yimou and Tong Dawei sat in the front and also talked about this Huabiao.

Although Li Chen and Zhang Yimou did not go, almost all the artists from Rongchen Pictures showed up.

Zhu Yilong's "Ocean Paradise" and "Chinese Police", Yang Mi's "Low IQ Crime" and "Hongmen Banquet", Tang Yan and Deng Chao's "Chinese Police" and "The Four", etc.

The next day, the Huabiao Awards red carpet star-studded gala was held at the Beijing Exhibition Hall.

Many stars gathered, with Yang Mi and Tang Yan being the leading actresses of Rongchen Pictures.

The two of them are no longer the Five-Party Guo Xiang and the Olympic Village Girl at the beginning of the millennium.

A girl wearing a blue-gray gauze dress that covered her chest completely, looking dignified yet pretty.

She was wearing a black tulle halter dress with her long, smooth black hair tied up. Her slender figure and swan neck made Tang Yan look even more attractive.

The two are undoubtedly the most eye-catching presence in their respective crews.

But no one probably expected that the most eye-catching person tonight was not the dignified and pretty Yang Mi, nor the mysterious and dashing Tang Yan.

But she is a second-tier actress.

When Yuan Li walked onto the red carpet in a black see-through dress, there was an exclamation of surprise from the audience.

After the exclamation, the flash lights started to crackle like firecrackers.

Everyone has almost the same idea in their mind.

The Sixth Princess and Sina are broadcasting live.

The media and celebrities at the scene may still be a little cautious, but netizens are not so cautious.

"She's really brave. I saw her underwear and bra. Sister Yuan is giving her a treat."

"One battle to become a god!"

"I've become a fan, I've become a fan. She dares to dress like this at the Huabiao Awards. She is worthy of being Ouyang Lanlan."

Inside the venue, Yuan Li still pretended to remain calm.

Yang Siwei, Tang Yan and Yang Mi got together.

"She's overdoing it. This is Huabiao, not Victoria's Secret!" Yang Siwei said bluntly.

Yang Mi and Tang Yan smiled at each other. Yang Siwei's speaking style was becoming more and more like his boss'.

Before the two came today, Yang Siwei greeted them.

Especially Yang Mi, don't appear to be too aggressive.

The theme of the Huabiao Awards dress is to be well-matched and solemn.

Most female stars choose more conservative dresses, such as Zhang Ziyi, Gong Li and others.

Li Chen and Liu Yifei, who had already arrived in Venice, were also watching the live broadcast.

Ms. Liu said directly: "She is too bold in wearing it. Is this a failure?"

"Of course I don't even need to ask Yang Siwei. I'm afraid everyone will stay away from her now. Otherwise, they won't be able to look at her at all."

Li Chen's smile was met with a roll of eyes from Miss Liu.

Seeing all the netizens cursing Yuan Li online, Ms. Liu felt scared just thinking about it.

She is now completely worn out and has given all her dresses to her husband and mother.

She made her own choice, and although it didn't turn out badly, she was still criticized by netizens.

Thinking about the five dresses and jewelry chosen by Li Chen this time, Liu Yifei was looking forward to the opening red carpet in two days.

If you are moved, you must take action. With this thought in mind, Liu Yifei stood up again and pulled Li Chen to try on her dress.

A Gucci haute couture pink rose strapless dress, which is both youthful and retro and elegant.

Liu Yifei lifted the hem of her skirt and turned around gently: "Does it look good, Director Li?"

Li Chen sat beside him, his eyes full of love: "You look good. Even if you wear a garbage bag, you are still unparalleled in the world in my eyes."

Liu Yifei's face turned slightly red. Although she had given birth to a child, she couldn't help feeling a little shy when listening to her husband's sweet words.

"Disgusting! You're the one wearing a garbage bag!"

"Hahaha"

Seeing her husband laughing, Liu Yifei felt even sweeter. Her husband only had two suits, both black suits.

In his words: You are already as beautiful as a fairy, so there is no need for me to be stunningly handsome. Besides, you are a fairy, and I would rather be a toad, so that I can feel a sense of accomplishment when I pounce on you.

When Liu Yifei heard this, she almost broke down and was asked by her husband three or four times in one night.

The phone rang, Li Chen picked it up and heard that it was Tim, Wen Ziren and Deng Ziqi.

"Let's go and meet our Director Wen and Little Giant Lung."

The exact opposite of Liu Yifei and Li Chen is the Yangzi couple.

Looking at Yangzi fiddling with his suit, Huang Shengyi felt extremely tired.

"Legend of the White Snake" is about the white snake, but all the promotional materials use Fahai.

They are about to walk on the red carpet in Venice, but this husband only cares about whether he looks handsome or not.

Huang Shengyi really wanted to say: Don’t take the photo, your foundation is there, you don’t look like an emperor even if you put on the dragon robe!

But Yoko didn't seem to notice it at all. She turned around and said confidently, "Which one do you think is better, the blue one or the black one?"

"All is fine!" Huang Shengyi said perfunctorily. Yangzi seemed to be unaware of Huang Shengyi's impatience at all.

She also said to herself: "I think this black one makes me look more handsome, and the blue one makes me look a bit old."

Huang Shengyi rolled his eyes at Yangzi's back, thinking to himself: You look old.
