The high ratings of "Hunting" gave the domestic media confidence. Since its premiere, domestic reports on "Hunting" have not stopped, and the number of drafts is much higher than that of other films.

"It has been more than seven days since the premiere of "The Hunt", and the ratings remain high, making it the biggest hit this season."

“‘Hunting’ stunned the water city, and the media in Venice praised it.”

"The introduction of "Hunting" has been reported to the General Administration."

""The Hunt" conquered Darren Aronofsky (chairman of the main competition jury) and called it the surprise film of this year."

But in fact, the judges will not express any opinions about the participating films during the film screening.

The praise from the media made Cheng Yu'an worried. Sometimes the judges like to go against the program notes.

The higher your rating, the less I will award you.

Otherwise, what else would the judges do if the media guesses my thoughts?

Isn't that why Lee Cang-dong's "Burning" received the highest score ever in the Cannes catalogue, but failed to win a single award?

But Lee Chang-dong was too negative. That year, he encountered Kore-eda Hirokazu's "Shoplifters". In addition, there were 9 judges in the main competition, 4 of them were women. The chairman of the jury was still Cate Blanchett. "Burning" was dismissed.

There will be no room for grievances if I go down.

"Stop bragging, stop bragging." Cheng Yu'an just had to burn incense and worship Buddha, begging the film festival media to stop bragging about "Hunting".

"You are such a bitch, you won't have a chance to brag like this in other movies." The young lady has almost finished all the activities she should participate in. The rest of the schedule is not so busy, with one or two games a day, so she has a lot of free time.

"If I continue to brag like this and cause the judges to resent me, my Golden Lion Award will be gone," Cheng Yu'an said.

"You are so thick-skinned. How come the Golden Lion Award is yours? I see the media saying that Matthew is good at acting and should win the Best Actor Award."

"You're happy that I can't win the Golden Lion, aren't you?"

"That's not the case. You already have the best director, and you can also let someone win the best actor." The young lady was wearing casual clothes and was reading the script with her legs crossed.

After the script of "BJ Meets Seattle" was sent back to China, the company is already making preparations. It is expected to start filming in November and finish filming in two months.

The two were talking when assistant Xiao Zheng knocked on the door and came in: "Brother, Mr. Yang from the "White Snake" crew is here."

"No." In addition to participating in various activities these days, Cheng Yuan is always harassed by Yangzi.

This guy is really persevering. He comes up to chat whenever he finds an opportunity and talks about how powerful Juli Media is and what it will develop into in the future.

Cheng Yu'an could only deal with a few words at first, but later he became so annoyed that he avoided him.

"Just say I'm resting."

"good."

"What is the origin of this Yangtze? Why is it like this?" Liu Yifei asked.

"What's the background? He's just a second-generation uneducated person who relied on his family's little money to make a career as a female star." It's not that Cheng Yu'an looked down on this kind of second-generation, Xiao Wang was also a second-generation, but

People only play internet celebrities.

"Huang Shengyi has been looking for me a lot in the past few days. One moment she told me that we are all classmates and we should get closer in the future. The next moment she said she was the president of Juli Media and wanted to film a movie with me. I didn't know what she meant." Liu Yifei

I have been busy these days and I don’t have much energy or thought to talk to Huang Shengyi. “I remember she wasn’t like this when she was in school.”

"Do you still know what her school is like? Do you spend half a year in school in four years?" Cheng Yu'an relieved his stress by ridiculing his girlfriend.

"You..." Liu Yifei was speechless, "I was young at that time and didn't understand anything." She defended weakly.

On the 9th, "The King" was the last film to be released in the main competition section. Cheng Yu'an and Liu Yifei also attended the show to help out.

After watching the movie, Cheng Yu'an quietly said to Liu Yifei: "It's too ordinary, too Hong Kong Island."

"I think it looks very good. Liu Qingyun's acting skills are so good."

"It's just a normal level. It's not surprising that Johnnie To perform like this." Different directors have different expectations, and "The Money" can only be regarded as a normal performance for Johnnie To.

"The King" lacks imagination and the multi-line narrative is not good enough: "It is a sure thing that a film like this can be shortlisted. It is almost impossible to make it in Venice this year. I am a judge and I will not give it an award.

"

"Are you a judge?" Liu Yifei took the opportunity to taunt her back, "Fortunately you are not a judge. With your eyesight, besides Akira Kurosawa and Bergman, who else can you look at? They will all be buried in the earth."

"What you are saying is true of living people, including Wajda, Resnais, Godard, Béla Tarr, and Woody Allen. If you want to hear it, I can recite a long list."

"Good guy, the youngest at 56, he has stopped filming." After being taught by Cheng Yu'an, the young lady still has a basic understanding of film history, "I don't like Woody Allen."

"I don't like him either. He is a scumbag, but his movies are really awesome."

"Also, you just said that I am not a judge, but I'm sorry, but I will be a judge for the main competition in Venice next year."

"Really!" The young lady was surprised, "When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me?"

"Just a few days ago, the film festival organizing committee informed me that I wanted to return to China to give you a surprise."

Liu Yifei is really happy for Cheng Yu'an. Next year Cheng Yu'an will be only 30 years old. The 30-year-old judge of the main competition unit of the three major European film festivals is not a big record.

"You're turning 30!" Sometimes women really don't know how their brains grow. "I heard that men's bodies start to decline after they turn 30."

"Who did you listen to? Am I not in good health? Are you dissatisfied?"

"How about we have a baby? I am 24 years old, which is the best age to have a baby!"

Cheng Yu'an was really shocked by these words: "Are you okay? Brother Hua didn't have a child until he was 50 years old."

"That's right." The young lady may have said this because her head was hot, "If you have a child, you won't be able to work for at least two years. I still have a lot of scenes to shoot."

Regardless of whether they wanted to have children in advance, Cheng Yu'an was even happier when Liu Yifei said such a bald talk, which showed that she had really thought about the future of the two of them.

While the two were talking, friends from the "Hunting" crew and the movie channel also came in one after another.

They came to Cheng Yu'an to wait for the call.

"Can I win a prize?"

"With such a high score, there should be hope."

"I heard that the crews of "Sediq Bale" and "The King" are packing their bags and preparing to return to China."

"Both movies were not favored by the audience or the media, and the premieres were deserted."

Didi didi~~~

The phone rings.

Cheng Yu'an picked up the phone: "Well, okay, okay, thank you."

"How is it?" Liu Yifei looked excited.

"Let's go and conquer Venice!"

"Yeah!" Everyone cheered. An invitation to attend the closing ceremony meant there was a prize!

"Breaking news, the crews of "Sister Peach" and "The Hunt" of the Chinese-speaking Corps have all been invited by the Venice Organizing Committee for the awards ceremony, and winning the award is a foregone conclusion. For follow-up news, our press conference will follow up and report it as soon as possible, so stay tuned."

"The crew of "The Hunt" has set off to the movie palace to capture the golden lion."
Chapter completed!
