Why can't some people just have fun and find Wu Jianye and want to get close to each other? Isn't this an unspoken rule that Hollywood has made public?
Even if you don't like me, there's no need to quarrel with me.
I'm a girl, can't we give girls the right to act rogue?
Didn’t I just say something bad about you in front of reporters?
You don’t need to call the police?
Isn’t the Los Angeles PD busy? How chaotic is the public security in Los Angeles now? Why do we still add chaos to others?
"Sharon, you don't have to think too much. Now Wu Jianye just said that he would call the police, but I think it was more just to scare you, and he won't really call the police!"
Sharon Stone's agent comforts Sharon Stone.
Sharon Stone looked at her agent and asked uncertainly: "Really?"
"Of course, I heard that Wu Jianye is going to be a judge at the Cannes Film Festival soon. Besides, you don't know the efficiency of the Los Angeles PD. How could they handle this matter so quickly?"
"As long as we get through this period, I believe everyone will forget about this matter after a while, and there will definitely be more people on your side by then!"
Hearing her agent's comfort, Sharon Stone felt relieved, but she still felt a little uneasy...
The agent nodded and said: "Don't worry, I have reported this matter to the company. The company will come forward to communicate with Hera's agent when the time comes. Then you can just issue a joint statement!"
Sharon Stone's agency is Williams Agency. They previously cooperated with Hera Agency to bring down CAA. There has been a lot of cooperation in the past two years, so from the agent's perspective, this matter is
It shouldn't be a big problem.
All Wu Jianye's activities in North America were nominally managed by Hera.
But the next day, Sharon Stone's agent was dumbfounded after receiving the notice from the company!
Hera's agent called back. They will not let this matter go so easily. This morning Wu Jianye had already found the Los Angeles PD to formally file a lawsuit against Sharon Stone.
At this time, Sharon Stone's manager is also in a mess. Does this trivial matter matter? Now Hera's manager and Wu Jianye have made it clear that they want to make Sharon Stone look bad.
The two looked at each other speechlessly.
Originally, Sharon Stone's agent wanted to say that the Los Angeles PD was not efficient enough, and there was no real evidence for this kind of thing. When the time came, as long as Sharon Stone bit Wu Jianye to death, she would just call him.
That’s it!
As a result, before the words were spoken, the Los Angeles PD sent someone over.
What made the two people even more devastated was that reporters from the ABC TV network also followed and stated that they would follow up and report on the matter 24 hours a day.
Seeing their excitement, Sharon Stone was really worried this time!
At this time, Wu Jianye was on the phone with Linda.
"We have sponsored US$500,000 to Los Angeles PD in the name of Hera's agent. I believe they will take this matter very seriously. At the same time, ABC TV Network has also sent reporters to follow up and report on this matter 24 hours a day.
I believe it won’t be long before Sharon Stone’s remarks will be completely overturned!”
Wu Jianye nodded and said, "Okay, let's handle the matter like this!"
However, Linda still asked curiously: "The other party is just a small actor. How can he mobilize so many people?"
In Linda's mind, this matter is not a big deal. She even feels that Wu Jianye's reaction was a bit excessive. The other party just wants to date you. It's fine if he doesn't agree. There is no need to be so firm.
?
Although Linda was not in Los Angeles at this time, she already knew what happened yesterday.
Wu Jianye smiled: "Can I do it?"
Linda smiled when she heard Wu Jianye's answer: "Of course, she's just a young actress. By the way, Phantom Pictures needs to do something about her!"
Wu Jianye laughed and said: "Not only Phantom Pictures, but also told Oceanwide Cinemas that from now on, all movies starring Sharon Stone will not be allowed to be released!"
Linda said nonchalantly: "Okay, no problem!"
She is just a Sharon Stone. Although she has gained some fame in Hollywood, she is only somewhat famous. At this time, it is too easy for Phantom Pictures to deal with a Sharon Stone.
Following Wu Jianye's series of actions, the North American audience became excited. They had not seen such a big melon for a long time, especially since ABC was following up on this matter 24 hours a day.
This gave them a strong smell of gossip.
The feminist groups that had been clamoring to prosecute Wu Jianye before saw that Wu Jianye's side was so strong, they also chose to stop and act like a coward.
Mainly because they saw Sharon Stone's performance in front of the camera.
Following the inquiries from the Los Angeles PD, Sharon Stone herself was confused. One moment, she said that Wu Jianye called her in February, and the next moment, she said that the call was last year.
It's simply that the preface doesn't match the postscript.
Her agent was making a last-ditch effort, but when the Los Angeles PD asked which phone number Wu Jianye used to call, they also fell silent.
Because there was no caller ID at this time, they said they didn't know the phone number, but they were sure it was Wu Jianye who called.
However, this kind of rhetoric is similar to strong words, so when the Los Angeles PD proposed to go to the telecommunications bureau to review the call records, the agent didn't know what to say.
After all, Sharon Stone's phone is not clean...
In this way, the matter continued to be hot for more than a week, and finally Sharon Stone's phone records were reviewed and even verified phone by phone.
Such a conscientious Los Angeles PD also opened the eyes of audiences across North America.
In the end, of course, there was nothing gained.
By this time, everyone already knew that Sharon Stone was lying.
At the same time, the court's summons was also delivered to Sharon Stone.
The next thing was naturally to go through the court process. It was already a month later when the matter ended, and Sharon Stone lost the case without exception.
And compensated Wu Jianye US$1 million...
And Sharon Stone’s image is completely ruined!
Coupled with the statement from Phantom Pictures, Sharon Stone's reputation is completely ruined in North America, and no film company will look for Sharon Stone to film anymore.
But Sharon Stone is not completely finished. After this incident, Sharon Stone definitely has no future in Hollywood.
Soon, Sharon Stone decided to move to the San Fernando Valley to start her own career in romantic action movies.
But at this time, Wu Jianye was no longer in Los Angeles, but came to Cannes, France!
During this period, Wu Jianye felt like he was just going to a nightclub...a handsome young man who had just finished the Oscars and came to Cannes to attend the 46th Academy Awards.
Cannes Film Festival!
After arriving in Cannes, Wu Jianye, led by Jacob, met the judges of the 46th Cannes Film Festival.
The chairman of the jury for this year's Cannes Film Festival is top French director Louis Malle!
He has won the Palme d'Or at the 9th Cannes Film Festival, the Golden Lion at two Venice Film Festivals, the Grand Jury Prize at two Venice Film Festivals, and countless other honors.
A true platinum god in the French film industry.
There are also eight other judges, including Italian national treasure actress Claudia Cardinale, who has won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Venice Film Festival and the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Berlin Film Festival.
Former Soviet actress and screenwriter Inna Churikova won the Best Actress at the Berlin Film Festival.
Australian actress Judy Davis.
"Director Wu, I didn't expect us to meet so soon!" Judy Davis smiled and shook hands with Wu Jianye.
Judy Davis was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 65th Academy Awards this year for the movie "Husbands and Wife"!
The two met before at the Academy Awards.
"We meet again in life!" Wu Jianye smiled and shook hands with Judy Davis. Judy Davis and Wu Jianye were about the same age, only one year older. She was once the lead singer of a rock band.
When we met at the Academy Awards before, I talked about rock music with Wu Jianye.
"This is the Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami!" Jacob continued to introduce the judges to Wu Jianye.
"Hello, Director Wu, I have long admired you!" Abbaskiarostami smiled and shook hands with Wu Jianye.
"Hello Abbas, I have watched the first two movies of your Village Trilogy. They are very good movies. I wonder when the third one will be released?" Wu Jianye said with the same smile.
Abbas Kiarostami is a very prolific film director, but it has not slowed down the quality of his films. The "Village Trilogy" just mentioned by Wu Jianye is actually Abbas Kiarostami's masterpiece.
one.
The first film "Where is My Friend's Home" won the Bronze Leopard Award at the 42nd Locarno International Film Festival, and the second film "Life Goes On" won the Rossellini Humanitarian Spirit Award at the 45th Cannes International Film Festival.
prize.
In the years that followed, he even won the Palme d'Or at the 50th Cannes Film Festival!
Abbas Kiarostami was also very happy to hear that Wu Jianye had watched his movie. He smiled and said: "We are already making preparations. It is estimated that it will be released next year!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to it very much!"
"Thanks!"
"Okay, there will be plenty of time for you to communicate in the next few days." Jacob was very happy to see that Wu Jianye could get along well with the judges, and continued to introduce other judges to Wu Jianye.
"This is the Yugoslav director Emil Kusturica. I believe I will have a very good communication with you, Director Wu!"
Emil Kusturica looks a bit majestic, which is somewhat different from the image of ordinary directors. If I have to describe it, he looks more like a rock singer than a director.
In fact, Emil Kusturica, like Judy Davis, once played in a rock band and was the bassist of the Smoke-Free Zone band.
He is also a member of the Double Palme d'Or Club at the Cannes Film Festival, a director who has won two Palme d'Or awards!
It is precisely because of his achievements that he has become the darling of major film festivals, similar to Wu Jianye now!
"Director Wu, let's form a band together when we have time!" Emil said with a laugh.
For Emile, although Wu Jianye's achievements in movies are very outstanding, if the two parties only talk about their achievements in film festivals, there is actually no difference between them, which is what really makes Emir interested in Wu Jianye.
Yes, it is Wu Jianye’s musical achievements.
The album "Born Out of the Sky" is rated as the bible of rock music. Almost everyone who plays rock music will listen to this album!
"You have time!" Wu Jianye said politely. He really didn't have much time in the past two years.
Next I will introduce the famous French photographer William Lubkonsky.
Wu Jianye shook hands with him politely!
Tom Lardy, who is also an American actor and producer, is also a judge at this Cannes Film Festival.
The last judge everyone is familiar with is Gary Oldman, a famous British actor in North America!
Later generations of audiences should be more familiar with him because he played James Gordon in the first part of the "Batman" trilogy, "Batman Begins", Churchill and Gary Odd in "Darkest Hour"
Mann even won the Best Actor Award at the 90th Academy Awards for this film.
"Hello, Director Wu!" Gary Oldman shook hands with Wu Jianye.
Although Wu Jianye had been filming movies in Hollywood for two years, this was the first time he met Gary Oldman.
"Hello!" Wu Jianye smiled and shook hands.
After everyone got to know each other, Jacob suggested that they all have a dinner together to get acquainted with each other. By the way, the chairman of the jury, Louis Malle, would talk to everyone about the regulations of this selection.
Naturally, the few people had no objections, so they went to a French restaurant in Cannes for dinner.
The Cannes Film Festival has not yet started at this time, but the atmosphere in Cannes has already become lively, and film producers from all over the world have gathered here again in order to find movies that suit them.
Wu Jianye was the latest among the nine judges to arrive here. After dinner, he followed everyone to the hotel. In addition to attending the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival tomorrow, the next nine judges will gather together to watch this event.
It is the first time that a movie has been shortlisted. Within two weeks, they will watch dozens of movies, which is also a very huge challenge for them.
Except for some necessary official activities, they will not participate in other things.
Before arriving, Wu Jianye had already spoken with Chen Kaige on the phone and learned that the crew of "Farewell My Concubine" had also arrived in Cannes. In order to avoid suspicion, the two did not agree to meet, but decided to wait until the end of the Cannes Film Festival.
From now on, we will return to China together!
The hotel where the judges live has been officially booked by the Cannes Film Festival. Wu Jianye is sitting in his room preparing tomorrow's dress.
