Before deciding to participate in this film festival, Xu Hui already knew very well that his biggest opponent was "Adele's Life"!

Cannes official magazine scored 3.6!

Slightly inferior to the 3.8 points of "Paradise Cinema".

But this movie has attracted a lot of attention!

Check out the evaluation of "Adele's Life" in "Screen": 3 hours of naked and sincere puberty story, the scale of the description of lesbian sexual life can be used as a textbook...

Very suitable for the situation!

Before the Cannes Film Festival, France had just announced the legalization of same-sex marriage, but on the eve of the Cannes Film Festival, there were large-scale boycotts on the streets of Paris, marches and demonstrations attacking same-sex marriages;

Artists are usually more left-wing, so Hollywood is the base of the Democratic Party!

Cannes is no exception, the so-called left means radical.

"Adele's Life" is so appropriate, the media generally applauded and the audience responded very well. After the official premiere, everyone in the largest cinema in Cannes stood up and ovated for more than ten minutes...

In addition, director Abuda Cosichu himself is a Frenchman and lives in Antibes near Cannes.

Any award will be regional prejudice. The Cannes Film Festival awarded the best actor and heroine to French actors countless times...

It is also predictable to award the Palme d'Or to French films this time...

Xu Hui is not so stupid that everything is good, he simply handed over the decision to a few judges!

Only children believe in fairness, but the adult world only has pros and cons!

Eight judges must get at least five votes before they can win the Palme d'Or.

The target of this key PR is Spielberg...

Fortunately, Disney is preparing to sign a movie contract with Spielberg. In this regard, "Paradise Cinema" naturally has an advantage!

The producers of "Paradise Cinema" are Touchstone and Huiwen Tianxia, ​​which are affiliated to Disney Group...

Another thing that needs public relations is Director Lee...

Ang Lee's taste is very unique. He can award the best film to a Singapore movie "My parents are not at home" at the 50th Golden Horse Awards. It is hard to guarantee that he does not like "Paradise Cinema"...

Their qualities are here. As long as they are settled, the probability that "Paradise Cinema" will be much higher!

In addition, Ye Ning also specially found a lot of media to hype the tricks of "Adele's Life", emphasizing that if this movie shows the love between men and women, no one would pay attention to it...

Although it is a bit shameless, it is also true.

...

May 23.

On the eighth day of Cannes opening, most of the participating films worth paying attention have almost ended. The rest are works with relatively strong commercial properties that are brought to make up the numbers, such as "Only God Can Forgive" and "Shield of Straw"...

At the Carlton Hotel, Xu Hui was sitting on the sofa in the hall, with a smile on his face being interviewed.

Interview with "World Movie Journey Information Express".

This column is broadcast on the movie channel at 17:50, with good ratings and a bit of a place in the minds of ordinary viewers.

In fact, in those years, the movie channel's ratings have always been very good, with the annual advertising fee reaching 1.5 billion!

Of course, nowadays, there are many fewer people watching TV, even more so than watching movies on TV...

The Cannes Film Festival is definitely something that many people who care about movies pay attention to. It is natural. "Information Express" is divided into five episodes to tell the story of this Cannes Film Festival!

Since I came to Cannes, I always have to interview the Chinese filmmakers participating in the competition.

"Destiny" is destined to be harmonious, and the movie channel is unlikely to interview Lao Jia, and the remaining choices are Empress Zhang and Xu Hui.

Niangniang Zhang is also a judge of this film festival, but she is a judge of the ‘A kind of attention’ unit…

I interviewed Niangniang Zhang yesterday. She highly praised "Paradise Cinema". Many viewers left messages to know what Xu Hui thinks about her movies.

"It's time to start!"

Scandaling the outline of the question, Xu Hui smiled and looked at Supporting Renwen Pei.

The crew had already set up the equipment, and the camera was aimed at Xu Hui. He was sitting right next to this floor-to-ceiling window. The background was the night sky in Cannes, which was very beautiful...

“Welcome to the World Movie Journey Information Express…”

Wen Pei said a few regular opening remarks and asked: "Director Xu Hui, this time it should be your second time to come to Cannes, right?"

"Yeah, yes, the second time!"

“Is there any difference in mood?”

"Compared with the last time, this time it's more nervous."

Wen Pei became interested: "How to say it?"

"To be honest, we are both filmmakers, either win awards or box office. Once I took "Huang Feihong" and was nominated for the main competition unit. I was completely unprepared and had no idea of ​​winning awards, because it was a commercial film, and this time it was different. "Paradise Cinema" is a transformation work that I have been preparing for for a long time!"

Xu Hui is very frank.

There is nothing embarrassing about this either.

Don’t you want to win awards when you come to Cannes with your works?

“…So you really want to win the award?”

"Of course, I had this mentality before coming, but after I arrived, I realized that my thoughts were too naive!"

Xu Hui was wearing a white shirt and a cup of freshly brewed green tea in front of him. He became a little serious: "In the past few days, I have watched a lot of movies and experienced the collision between different cultures and different opinions. To be honest, I suddenly felt like I was watching the sky from a well."

"…The filmmakers should still walk around more often. Always stay in the country, and it is easy to think that they are the whole world!"

"So what's your mentality now?"

"I'm pretty happy. My creative ideas have come to an end in the past few years. This trip to Cannes has gained a lot. I can't wait to start shooting the next work!"

"…This time, there are five Asian films in the Cannes Film Festival that have been shortlisted for the main competition unit, but we only have one Chinese film. What do you think of this ratio?"

Wen Pei took out the topic of the question about Empress Zhang yesterday and asked Xu Hui.

"In fact, from a global perspective, Chinese-language films themselves are relatively small. In addition, the mainland market has been expanding in recent years, and most filmmakers are not very concerned about foreign countries. I believe that when our market matures, there will definitely be a bunch of high-quality art films!"

"…"Paradise Cinema", I heard that the current score of "Screen" is 3.8. Do you think there is a chance to win the award?"

"I'm not a judge, I'm not a judge... and the tastes of the magazine's scores and judges are often different, otherwise there wouldn't be a saying that the popularity will die!"

"Then which work do you think is the most likely to win the award?"

"Well, "Adele's Life."

Xu Hui thought about it and took out "Adele".

“…Oh, why?”

"LGBT is now mainstream, and the movie "Adele's Life" is just right in line with this trend. In addition, the movie is not bad. If I were a judge, I might choose "Adele's Life"!"
