As Chen Mubai's direct opponents, everyone was even more panicked.
I just circulated those "praising" words on the Internet, and the results were achieved in the blink of an eye...
"Buried Alive" was actually shortlisted!
Along with Chen Mubai's fame, he is unparalleled in the limelight!
"What should we do? Should we continue to spread those rumors?" someone asked in a low voice, obviously in a bad mood.
"Since word-of-mouth can't be solved, then let's make a fuss about the box office. The box office of literary and artistic films is generally not high, and the same should be true for this work." Someone suggested.
"It's different. Chen Mubai is very famous now. Even if this is a literary film, with so many fans supporting it, it won't necessarily be bad at the box office."
"All major official media are also promoting him. Once this movie is released, the box office will definitely not be low, and many people will go to see it."
Someone retorted: "Hey, you guys, why are you thinking about something so far away? The release will be in the future. The top priority now is to find the next plan, how to deal with Chen Mubai."
"I suggest that we still implement the [praise and praise] policy. Anyway, the rise of "Buried Alive" is unstoppable. We will praise it to the heavens in all kinds of ways, making people feel that the awards are in their pockets. If they don't win the awards by then, it will inevitably cause a backlash from netizens.
.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was thinking about the feasibility, and the place was quiet.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. In theory, there is really no problem.
After a while, one person said: "I think there is no other way, let's try it like this."
"Okay, that's it."
After a long time, a bitter voice sounded: "I mean, what if Chen Mubai wins the award?"
"..."
This time, everyone was silent.
Everyone is a little bit pained, what should I do?
That makes sense, it's not impossible.
Just like they thought it was impossible for Chen Mubai to participate in the Venice Film Festival, but Chen Mubai did.
I thought it was impossible for Chen Mubai to be shortlisted, but he was shortlisted again...
If they really win the award, then their praise will no longer be flattering, but will become a fact...
Just like the original Huiying Entertainment, it not only promoted the other party, but also gained popularity, influence and fame for the other party, and completely became the wedding dress for the other party.
Everything has two sides, they don't want to make wedding clothes for Chen Mubai.
"I think this is a bit unfounded, and the difficulty of winning and being shortlisted is different?" someone said.
"What's more, the shortlisted films may not necessarily win awards, and they have to compete with other works. I don't think Chen Mubai can beat many world-famous directors."
"That's right, we think too much."
"Then just do it!"
After this, everyone once again unified their views.
They also don’t believe that Chen Mubai can continue on!
The process of participating in the three major film festivals is different from that of domestic films.
Before the opening of domestic film festivals, the shortlisted films will be announced, and which awards will be announced. The winning works and individuals will be announced at the awards ceremony.
However, the processes of the three major film festivals are different, because the participating films come from all over the world and there are many works.
Therefore, the shortlisted works will be divided into two concepts: the main competition unit and the non-competition unit.
The evaluation of the awards is also different. There is no nomination for the award. As long as the film is shortlisted, it has an automatic chance of winning various awards.
In other words, even if you only play a supporting role in the movie, but you perform well, you can still win the best actor (female). It has nothing to do with the number of scenes, it only depends on the actor's acting skills.
The duration of the film festival is also very long, starting from ten days and a half. At the film festival, everyone can enjoy wonderful films from various countries and exchange different cultures with others.
Finally, before the awards night, the film festival organizing committee will tell the film's crew whether they have been shortlisted for the award. Those who are not notified can go home.
If there is a notice, then congratulations, prepare to attend the awards night, your work will also be nominated for awards, you will be qualified to win awards, and you will be able to feel the world's respect for movies!
Another difference is that the award for Best Actor and Actor is a very important award. It will not be selected separately, but will be selected from the works shortlisted for the main competition unit.
In other words, there is no chance that a film shortlisted for a film festival but not nominated will have a chance to win.
At this point, they believe that only the works shortlisted for the main competition unit (award-winning nominations), the actors' performances are good, can truly reflect the superb acting skills, and are qualified to chase the best starring.
On the other hand, if the work is not good, how can the actor's performance be said to be good?
At least it's definitely not as convincing as those good works.
...
The companies that were interested in Mubai Entertainment were all disrupted by this news. They could only hold an emergency meeting and change the policy towards Mubai Entertainment.
The voices of the mercenary trolls hacking Chen Mubai and "Buried Alive" have basically disappeared. If you continue to hack at this time, I'm afraid you will be caught and scolded...
The participation of major media has also made "Buried Alive"'s participation in the Venice film known to more and more people. Many people also went to learn about Chen Mubai's resume, and suddenly found that this resume is a bit weird!
Since entering the entertainment industry, this development trend has taken off and become popular!
Netizens were generally not optimistic about "Buried Alive" before, but now the Venice Film Festival has rectified the name of "Buried Alive", which has really slapped many people in the face.
Of course, many netizens are just outsiders. It doesn't matter if they jump into camps at will and no one will say anything. However, the same cannot be said for public figures.
Several public figures who caused a lot of trouble in the past have been pulled out by netizens and whipped to death.
Everyone dug out those people's comments about Chen Mubai and "Buried Alive".
"@Hechao, didn't you say you wanted to beat Chen Mubai? Excuse me, do you think "Buried Alive" is still rubbish?"
"It's so funny that the work of a director who was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival is criticized by a third-rate director who has never won a prestigious award. What's wrong with the world? The mice are all bridesmaids to the cats!"
"I understand. What He Chao means is that Chen Mubai is just shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival. Compared with him, his level is still far behind. How can he compare with him? His works are actually very good, but we can't understand them.
, we the audience can’t..."
"Nothing wrong. The audience this time is so rubbish that they can't understand the works of my director He Chao. Can you blame him?"
"Internet violence is so terrifying, but fortunately I am the one doing the violence (dog head)!"
Director He Chao has become the most ridiculed figure by many people, and he has also become a hot search topic.
His high-spirited comments attracted the attention of many people at the time, and he was very popular at the time.
But looking at it now, how beautiful it was back then, it is so miserable now. Everyone is mocking him. After all, what he said about "Buried Alive" and the current facts are completely two extremes. His face was swollen.
He suffered the most online violence. For this reason, because of his reputation, his company fired him from the online drama again and asked him to take a vacation to recuperate...
Chen Mubai is now famous. He Chao's contempt for him will make the audience think that he is unreliable. In addition, his previous works were underrated, and everyone thinks that he has no talent.
Therefore, it will affect the quality and ratings of online dramas to a certain extent. To be on the safe side, He Chao can only be temporarily hidden.
He had no choice but to blame others. He had taken the initiative to challenge Chen Mubai for being in the limelight, and that was why he was in the current situation. Even his boss and friends couldn't help him.
Regardless of whether "Buried Alive" wins the award in the end, at least He Chao has no chance of making a comeback. After all, the quality of "Buried Alive" he originally strived for was not good, it was a bad movie, and all the gimmicks were just hype.
The quality of the works that can be shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival is naturally not bad, so He Chao's words are not valid, and even he himself has suffered backlash.
At the beginning, there were two well-known directors in the film and television industry who had different opinions on Chen Mubai, but now the results have come out.
This is the power of the Venice Film Festival!
Just being shortlisted is enough to illustrate the quality of the film, and no one will doubt that this is the most authoritative and fair selection!
Because Qiao Tong initially supported Chen Mubai, many people are now praising him for his good vision.
"Qiao Tong is still a great director with a keen eye. No wonder he can produce a work with a strong martial arts atmosphere like "The Magnificent Seven"!"
"That's right. The few movies Qiao Tong made before were pretty good. His ability and vision are not bad, so the works he produced are naturally not bad. He is not like a low-level director like He Chao, who is not good enough and likes to show off.
, bumping into porcelain everywhere~"
"Nothing wrong, ten He Chao's are about the same level as Qiao Tong..."
He Chao has officially become a unit of measurement...
There is also the emergence of that kind of emoticon package. The expression on He Chao's photo is a frowning and somewhat distressed look, and then the text is "No one understands art better than me", "This audience can't do it", "You..."
What kind of rubbish work is it?】......
He Chao has become a hit all over the Internet, but it's just black and red.
Ever since this incident broke out, He Chao knew that he was unlucky and would definitely be abused by netizens.
He immediately chose to play dead, not respond, and delete WeChat messages, fearing that those comments would break his defense. After all, no one can stand being scolded on a large scale. He Chao could foresee his own end, so he made preparations in advance.
, out of sight but out of mind!
Another well-known director, Su Qiang, who has the same viewpoint as He Chao, was also dug out by netizens.
When he was interviewed by reporters in public, he was not optimistic about "Buried Alive" and he was not optimistic about Chen Mubai's ability to make one person's work and do it well.
Nowadays, Su Qiang’s original words are also used as satire by netizens.
However, Su Qiang is not like He Chao. He has also had famous works, and he only analyzed it from his own perspective and did not disparage Chen Mubai, so he stood up and responded publicly.
"I said that I am not optimistic about the success of "Buried Alive", a movie shot by one person. The Venice Film Festival sometimes does not just look at the content of the work, but also considers the novelty and unique perspective of the work. Therefore, the quality of "Buried Alive"
It’s hard to say how, but it is definitely a creative film, so it can be shortlisted.”
"Chen Mubai is indeed very talented. I have not denied this, otherwise he would not have been shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival. But I think he is too young and has not done much in film and television. His works will be relatively immature and need time to be polished.
These all require experience, I still believe this.”
Although Su Qiang's response was still criticized by some people, some people also supported it.
After all, there was nothing wrong with what he said. At first, he did secretly belittle Chen Mubai, but he did not admit it. Now that he has changed his concept, no one can say that he just belittled Chen Mubai. There is indeed no definite reason, unlike He
Super, really ironic.
After all, Su Qiang is a well-known director and has some understanding of the film festival's selection criteria. He believes that it is precisely because "Buried Alive" is a film shot by one person. It may be due to creativity, novelty and other reasons that the work was selected, not
quality.
This is an angle that no one has talked about so far. Since "Buried Alive" was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival, it has been basically full of compliments. Netizens don't understand these things, so naturally they won't say them out.
Even public figures who know about it won't say it because it offends people.
Especially some people want to cooperate with Chen Mubai.
No matter what, there is no doubt about Chen Mubai's talent, and his future achievements will be very high. Everyone believes in this, and his knowledge is remarkable.
Su Qiang came out to speak out because he was already at the forefront of the situation.
Furthermore, he is a director himself, a literary fellow, a colleague and a competitor.
Naturally, Su Qiang would not praise Chen Mubai, so he said it.
It was also because public opinion was one-sided that Su Qiang's words were not unreasonable. They attracted a lot of support and allowed everyone to find a point of view that could be refuted.
No one has watched "Buried Alive", and no one knows the quality. Everything is just guesswork, so some words cannot be defended.
"I think what Director Su Qiang said makes sense."
"No matter what happens with "Buried Alive", I definitely don't like watching it. There are so many award-winning films every year, but I haven't seen a few of them. I still like commercial films, and those literary films are boring!"
"It's just that I felt sleepy after watching it. Art movies are too boring. I still prefer more passionate and passionate works!"
"Maybe this is the possibility of "Buried Alive" being shortlisted. Otherwise, Chen Mubai's first work would be shortlisted. This is a bit too unbelievable. If it is based on novelty and other creativity, it is still very possible."
Regarding Su Qiang's response, Chen Mubai still ignored it because it was unnecessary.
People who believe in you will still choose to believe, and people who don’t believe in you will still not believe in you. You can never wake up those who pretend to be asleep.
However, compared to the previous public opinion, Mubai Entertainment has now become the center of a hot topic, and many people want to cooperate with them, and even want to sign a contract with their company.
...
The time came on July 20th. Chen Mubai and his team got on the plane and headed to Italy to prepare for the Venice Film Festival. The opening ceremony of the film festival would start in two days.
Illy speaks Italian, which is considered a minor language and not many people understand it. However, Chen Mubai can speak English, a common international language. Except for some situations, there will be no communication problems.
However, Chen Mubai and the others were not worried about not understanding the meaning, because the matter had been resolved and the accommodation for Chen Mubai and his party had been arranged.
Van Cleef, which Chen Mubai signed with, is a local Italian brand. This time they knew that Chen Mubai would participate in the Venice Film Festival, so they had already arranged everything, including food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Van Cleef likes Chen Mubai very much as a partner. After he endorsed the clothing, sales have greatly increased, and the song "In the Name of the Father" has spread, and it has also indirectly promoted their gang culture.
Alright.
In addition, this time, the film festival that Chen Mubai went to attend was in their country, so they were naturally very enthusiastic.
