Chapter 578: Not paying attention because of the film festival, but paying attention because of Li Yi
Headline director Jungou is making headlines again!
Well, this time, Li Yi really felt like he was being killed by society.
Mainly because of his photo, which is so hilarious.
"This moon-shaped band-aid is so unique! You can be smashed into a bag just by watching a ball. You are indeed a dog director, you really know how to play!"
"Kukuku, why did I laugh like a pig when I saw the dog director?"
"Then the question is, where can I buy this moon-shaped band-aid?"
"That's a good question from the person upstairs. A certain store already sells Li Yi's moon band-aid!"
Not only that, what Li Yi said during interviews with the media was also ridiculed by netizens.
"It's old Versailles. It's our business whether we look forward to it or not. Do you think it's up to you, the bad director? Just film the show honestly!"
"Fast-paced? Sorry, I'm just so stubborn. I just like slow-paced movies!"
"I like it that money can't buy. After watching too many popcorn movies, it would be ok to watch some slow-paced art movies!"
"We don't want to look forward to it, but you force us to keep seeing the name of your movie and the news about your dog director. What does it mean?"
"What's wrong with literary movies? As long as it's not a good movie that's too desperate and depressing like "Sowon", that'll be fine!"
"Hurry up and shoot. Also, if the movie isn't finished, don't make it trending again! Otherwise, you don't have to watch the movie. Why don't you just watch some football?"

"The guy upstairs, yes, he just went to watch the game! Then he brought the moon back with him!"
"Number of injured: 1, hahaha, why do you find it so funny?"
Netizens are very happy, but directors in the film industry are autistic.
This shit, is this too much?
Director Dog, you really went too far!
Your movie is about to be released. It’s understandable that you’re going to make trouble and promote it, but the release is still far away, so what’s the use of all this popularity?
You're not a celebrity, you make headlines every day, you're so stupid!
Some people just bought the hot search, and then found that they were lonely after buying it.
Time flies by, and Li Yi has not come back for the Spring Festival. Staying abroad this year and spending it with Xu Nannan can be regarded as a kind of compensation.
After the Spring Festival, the awards season arrives. Unfortunately, this year’s Oscars have nothing to do with Chinese films.
This also makes many people miss the time when Li Yi's "The Truman Show" won the Academy Award for Best Picture.
But that's not all. At the Berlin Film Festival, two Chinese films entered the main competition this year, but the results were unexpected.
In fact, this is also the norm, because with the rise of domestic commercial films, many literary and artistic film directors have sharpened their heads and moved towards commercial films, and the country no longer allows the existence of underground films as it did in the past.
Bans on directing are all frivolous. Therefore, when making films, those literary and artistic film directors must obtain a license before they dare to shoot.
In the past, many literary and artistic directors complained about the domestic censorship system, blaming the decrease in award-winning films on the domestic censorship system.
But in the end, who could have imagined that Li Yi would turn out to be such a monster.
Is "The Truman Show" awesome enough? Oscar for Best Picture, Cannes Palme d'Or, but what do you say about this movie?
Is it weird about the domestic film censorship system?
In fact, there are still many directors who are very bitter, mainly because they want to make a movie like "Su Yuan", but it is not so easy to pass the review, because not everyone is Li Yi.
To say there is a relationship, there must be a relationship.
But which country doesn’t have its own rules?
Back to business.
In fact, the Berlin Film Festival has always favored Chinese-language films. This year, the two films that entered the main competition section failed, which is still relatively rare.
After the Berlin Film Festival, there is the Cannes Film Festival.
This year's Cannes was even more embarrassing. Although there were domestic films in the competition, none of them entered the main competition section. Some just paid attention to this section.
Although it is the same award, the influence is much different.
And in fact, it also depends on the director's own reputation.
Even if some directors have won awards such as the Palme d'Or, not many people know about them.
It is really unrealistic to expect to be followed by countless media and praised by countless fans just after winning awards at the three major European film festivals like in the past.
To put it simply, although the three major European film festivals are honorable, their influence is not as great as in the past.
On the one hand, this is because there are already many award-winning Chinese directors and actors.
On the other hand, it is also because of the rise of the Chinese film market that the mainstream has become commercial films.
Unless you can do two or three brushes, otherwise, it's really just like that.
In the early years, everyone favored the awards from the three major European film festivals. It was entirely because at that time, the film market in China was really weak and could not win at all. At that time, neither the domestic media nor the audience
, directors and directors all hope that Chinese films can gain international recognition.
Therefore, as long as you can win an award abroad, even if it is not a top-level award, there will still be a lot of people paying attention and a lot of media coverage.
But it’s really different now!
Directors like Li Yi are different because they are very knowledgeable and can be said to be the best choice in every aspect.
Like Li Yi, the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival is, in a fundamental sense, more of an icing on the cake for him.
The reason why he attracts so much attention is entirely because he is famous himself, all he lacks is awards.
That's why it gets so much attention.
Closer to home, this year’s Cannes Film Festival will make the Cannes Film Organizing Committee feel a huge sense of gap.
Although Cannes is obviously commercialized, it has attracted many Hollywood movies to Cannes for promotion, and many stars have also come.
However, compared with last year, it is obvious that there are many fewer tourists from China. Not only that, but in terms of sponsors, there are also a lot fewer wealthy brands from China.
In fact, just like the NBA, whether a team has Chinese players or not, the attention it receives is completely different.
The same is true for the Cannes Film Festival.
For this reason, even Cannes misses the grand occasion of Li Yi bringing two movies to Cannes last year.
It was really a grand occasion, not to mention there were a lot more tourists from China, not to mention the award ceremony at the closing ceremony of last year's Cannes Film Festival and the Chinese video platform purchased the broadcast rights, and the cost was not low.
.
But let’s not mention it this year. Who the hell wants to see foreigners who they don’t know at all win awards there?
At the same time, Li Yi, who was missed, finally announced the completion of "Cinema Paradiso" after five months of filming.
However, the outside world doesn’t know!
During this period, Li Yi kept a relatively low profile and chose to watch football in a private room. Unfortunately, the atmosphere was quite different.
