When the warm sea breeze blew ashore, it was accompanied by the hot weather in Cannes and the crazy screams of movie fans.
The red carpet show at the opening of the Cannes Film Festival, the most influential of Europe's three major film festivals, has officially begun.
The nine major judges of the 46th Cannes Film Festival, led by Louis Malle, all appeared.
Nine people formed a three-person echelon, walking at the same pace, waving to the fans outside the fence, and the fans also responded with warm applause and screams!
Wu Jianye walked in the middle position close to Louis Malle. Like everyone else, he waved to the fans. Looking at the excited fans outside the venue, Wu Jianye smiled.
I guess this is the moment that every creator enjoys very much. Through the lens in his hand, the audience around the world can see his expression and at the same time fall in love with his expression.
The nine people did not stay on the red carpet for too long, and no one left the team and came to the fans to sign autographs. In any case, they are this year's judges. Regardless of the comments from the outside world, the nine people have a consensus.
That is, within two weeks from today, the participating films will be the protagonists.
The red carpet at the film festival does not mean that only after a group of people have walked the entire red carpet will other crew come to walk the red carpet, but there are normal time intervals.
There is actually no formal time limit for walking on the red carpet at the same time, but on a red carpet that is tens of meters long, it is not appropriate for you to walk for more than ten or twenty minutes, right?
That's why there will be so many carpet stars in later generations who were persuaded to leave by the security guards, not because the time was up, but because you were too lazy.
This world is so interesting.
Real celebrities don't stay on the red carpet for long. A short ten minutes can't bring you much popularity. It's just a familiar face and adds some thickness to your face.
Something else.
And these overseas reporters are not stupid. Although every star walking on the red carpet will take photos, it is more out of their own professional habits!
If you don't have such a high profile, they won't give you any space.
Unless you think of other tricks, it is possible, such as wearing a dragon suit or wearing a Northeastern Kang cheongsam...
Before Wu Jianye and others walked up the steps, the next wave of crew members who were walking on the red carpet also came over.
It is this year's shortlisted film, Wanwan's film "A Dream of Life", directed by Hou Xiaolan, who is also the darling of the Cannes Film Festival.
This is not the first time for Hou Xiaoran to participate in the Cannes Film Festival. He is also familiar with the industry, and it did not take too long to lead the entire crew.
When Wu Jianye and others walked up the steps to take a group photo, Hou Xiaoran had already led the crew members of "Dream Life" to the middle of the red carpet.
Next up were Alexander Aden and Sophie Marceau.
In order to increase the influence of the film festival, any film festival cannot only invite participating films to participate, but also invite stars from various countries to participate.
As the most popular female star in France today, Sophie Marceau was naturally included in the invitation. Judging from the cheers of fans watching and the sound of reporters quickly clicking their shutters, we knew how influential she was.
At this time, Wu Jianye and others were being interviewed.
The reporter at the scene first interviewed Louis Mahler for a few words, and then found Wu Jianye. Although the other seven judges are also very well-known, in terms of fame, among the nine judges, Wu Jianye is the most famous.
Especially at the just-concluded Academy Awards, Wu Jianye won the Best Foreign Language Film award for "The World of Chu Xing". With such popularity, even the host of the Cannes Film Festival would not give up.
"Director Wu, as an old friend of the Cannes Film Festival, do you have anything to say when you come back here this time?"
Although Wu Jianye just won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, making it the most popular film right now, it is the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival anyway, and the host will not mention other film festivals.
"I am very happy. I have a very deep relationship with the Cannes Film Festival, and I am also a very good friend with Mr. Jacobs. I am very happy to be able to participate in this big party as a judge of the Cannes Film Festival!" Wu Jian
Ye replied with a smile.
When the host was about to say something else, he suddenly saw that Wu Jianye and others were all looking in the direction of the red carpet...
It fell, it fell, it really fell!
It turns out that when Sophie Marceau was walking on the red carpet with Alexandre Aden on her arm, she didn’t know if her skirt was too big or if it was dripping...
Anyway, she suddenly accidentally stumbled and fell directly to the ground, with a panic expression on her face at the right time. Alexander Aden next to her was also in a daze for a moment before she realized what she was doing, and then quickly helped Sophie Marceau up!
This action immediately made Sophie Marceau the focus of the audience, and all the reporters' eyes fell on Sophie Marceau.
In his heart, Wu Jianye gave Sophie Marceau a thumbs up!
Really worthy of being the true Sophie. Blanket Star. Marceau!
As the originator of carpet stars, Sophie Marceau is using her actions to set an example for future carpet stars, telling them what kind of performance can truly impress everyone on the red carpet.
The mountain is small.
The so-called one who wears dragon clothes and walks on red carpets in Northeast China, she is so high-end!
After all, I was careless and no one can say anything.
While everyone's attention was still on Sophie Marceau, Wu Jianye and others had already entered the hall, which also meant that they could no longer see what kind of story was happening on the rest of the red carpet.
arrive.
This makes Wu Jianye a little regretful!
In fact, with Sophie Marceau as a carpet star, it will be more difficult for other celebrities to do something eye-catching.
Wu Jianye and others sat in their seats and chatted quietly, but many people also looked at the door.
Even Wu Jianye is no exception. A total of 24 films have been selected for the main competition at this Cannes Film Festival, and films from various countries have been selected by the judges. What they are actually looking at is whether film crews from their own countries have come in.
.
Halfway through the entrance ceremony, Wu Jianye saw Chen Kaige, Zhang Fengyi, Zhang Guoyi and Gong Li at the door.
After the four people walked into the hall, they took a quick glance and saw where Wu Jianye was. Chen Kaige did not come over to say hello, but just nodded towards Wu Jianye from a distance and went to where he was.
.
Emil Tusculica sat next to Wu Jianye and said with a smile: "Wu, I have already watched Chen's "Farewell My Concubine". It is a very excellent movie. This competition is very promising!"
"
Wu Jianye said with a smile: "Everyone has a chance, but we still have to wait until the day of the closing ceremony to know the specific result!"
Emil Tuscurica smiled and said nothing.
There was actually not much suspense in the opening ceremony, and there was no way to compare it with the closing ceremony.
As the red carpet came to an end, the host came on stage and gave a crackling talk about the history of the Cannes Film Festival, and then Louis Malle took the other eight judges to the stage to deliver a speech.
After still a conversation, the opening film of this Cannes Film Festival was played!
Wu Jianye and everyone started to watch the video, and the whole process was very quiet.
As the movie ended, applause broke out in the hall.
At this time, Chen Kaige brought Zhang Guoyi and others to Wu Jianye's side!
When Zhang Guoyi saw Wu Jianye, he seemed very excited. He went up to him and gave him a hug. He smiled and said, "Director Wu, congratulations on winning the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Thank you, I hope you can return with a good reputation this time!"
Chen Kaige looked at Wu Jianye with a somewhat complicated expression. It is impossible to say that Chen Kaige has no ideas when he comes to Cannes this time.
In fact, every film that enters the main competition section hopes to win the Palme d'Or. This has nothing to do with self-awareness.
Dreams are something everyone deserves!
"Old Wu, congratulations!" Chen Kaige said with a smile.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "When I go back, I also hope to bring one more trophy back with you!"
Chen Kaige naturally understood what Wu Jianye meant and smiled: "I hope so too!"
Zhang Fengyi on the side also said to Wu Jianye: "I am afraid that no one in China will discuss who is the best director in China this time!"
Although Wu Jianye has achieved many achievements before and has been called the most awesome film director in China by many people, there are still many seniors above him. We can only say that he is the most awesome, but we cannot say that he is the most awesome film director.
The first director!
But this time, as "The World of Chu Xing" directed by Wu Jianye won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, Wu Jianye's reputation as the number one director in China has been completely established!
Even those film directors of the older generation cannot compare with Wu Jianye!
Wu Jianye said: "Being the first person, it doesn't matter if you are not the first person. Let's get together again after we go back!"
Zhang Fengyi nodded.
Gong Li on the side also expressed congratulations to Wu Jianye.
In fact, this time is when everyone is establishing their own relationship with each other, so no one leaves the hall.
The other judges were also chatting with their friends.
While Wu Jianye was chatting with Chen Kaige and others, Sophie Marceau walked over, her movements so agile that there was no trace of her awkward posture.
"Wu, is this the movie that your Chinese team is participating in?" Sophie Marceau came over and naturally took Wu Jianye's arm.
This surprised Chen Kaige and others, especially director Chen Kaige. When he was in China, he tried to contact Chen Hong but failed until now. As a result, he saw Su, who is now known as the most beautiful rose in France.
The close gesture between Fimasuo and Wu Jianye made Director Chen very hurt.
He is also a well-known director in China, why is Wu Jianye so happy?
Wu Jianye introduced Sophie Marceau: "Yes, this is the crew of "Farewell My Concubine", and this is the director of this movie, Chen Kaige..." Wu Jianye then also
Introduced other people to Sophie Marceau.
Sophie Marceau smiled and shook hands with everyone: "I'm very happy to see you. I don't know when your movie will be released at the film festival. I will definitely go see it!"
Chen Kaige smiled and said: "It will be released tomorrow!"
Each participating film will be screened at this film festival to be watched by various movie fans and journalists from various countries who come to make pilgrimages. At the same time, film companies from various countries will also come to select films.
The next two weeks will basically be a grand film exhibition!
"Really, dear, will you accompany me to watch this movie tomorrow?" Sophie Marceau made no secret of her relationship with Wu Jianye.
Wu Jianye laughed and said: "I don't have time, I have to watch the film with the other judges next!"
Sophie Marceau suddenly said: "Oh, I forgot about this!"
Seeing Wu Jianye and Sophie Marceau acting like this, Chen Kaige and others smiled bitterly in their hearts again, "Old Wu, let's go back first. By the way, there is something I want to tell you. During the closing ceremony,
Mr. Jiang Zhiqiang will come to participate!"
This time, the movie "Farewell My Concubine" was invested by Fengge Pictures, so it is understandable that Jiang Zhiqiang took the title of chief producer and came to attend the closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival this time.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "I already know this, as I said before, let's get together again after the closing ceremony!"
Chen Kaige nodded and said, "Okay!"
After Chen Kaige and others returned, Wu Jianye did not stay here. After saying hello to Louis Malle, he left the hall with Sophie Marceau.
Even though there were many reporters outside, Sophie Marceau still did not let go of Wu Jianye's arm. Many reporters took photos of Sophie Marceau holding Wu Jianye's arm.
"Bah, this Wu Jianye is so happy. I didn't expect that just after arriving in Cannes, he would get together with Sophie Marceau." A reporter said unbalancedly.
"Don't forget, there was a scandal between Wu Jianye and Isabel Adjani for some time!" Some reporters began to dig deeper into Wu Jianye's gossip!
"By the way, I remember the closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival. Isabelle Adjani will also attend, right?" a local French reporter said.
"I'm not sure, but there is indeed such a piece of news. At this time, I extremely hope that Isabelle Adjani will also participate in this film festival!"
"plus 1!"
.......
It’s no wonder these reporters are so angry. Both Isabelle Adjani and Sophie Marceau are hailed as beauties that are rare to see in France for a century. In fact, there is not much age difference between the two!
But now that the two beauties in France are so close to Wu Jianye, how could they not be upset in their hearts!
In fact, this photo was published by some media magazines the next day.
Many French viewers also sighed deeply after seeing this photo and the outrageous reports.
The goddess of my own country was so easily taken away by others?
Even though Wu Jianye is very popular in France, he is not French after all?
