Chapter 372 The situation escalates
Chapter 372: The situation escalates
The episode at the entrance made Xiaojun, who had already attracted close attention from the reporter media and the guests present because of his special appearance and the "stunning" golden combination of a man and a woman. This "beast"-like man is really beastly.
The next other scene made Xiaojun's crew from xg's film and television company crew again push to the forefront, and also made the behavior of Kurosawa and his party's pressure on the organizing committee futile. There was no one in the film festival organizing committee, because of a well-known director and crew, especially a director with great influence in Asia, offend a chairman of an international company that not only had a good relationship with Count Gibson, but also had close ties with Princess Sophia.
Sophia's presence made this opening reception in the film and television entertainment industry a bit formal, the atmosphere was a bit solemn, and the political flavor became much stronger. Similarly, it became much boring, and the guests present were a little restrained.
However, the only thing that caused a little stir in the scene was that as soon as Sofia entered the reception, accompanied by two ministers, she walked straight towards the direction where Xiaojun and others stood. Sofia's actions were also the focus of the audience.
"Ah!!!" Whether the guests, members of the organizing committee, or officials from Country F were shocked by Sofia's extraordinary actions, and low talk and awe-inspiring sounded instantly at the scene.
Sophia did not have a condescending attitude, nor did she kiss her hands and bow her back like a familiar person. Instead, as a princess, she took the initiative to stand beside Xiaojun, and her face was always plain and solemn, showing a sincere smile, enthusiastic words, and intimate actions.
Just a simple hug and a voucher is completely normal for normal Western social interaction, but the identity of Guan Shang Princess is completely different, especially the attitude of Zuo Haojun, which surprised everyone present even more. Instead, he was calm, as if this was the case, it was ordinary.
Princess Sofia didn't care, but the following sentence almost made all the guests present fall.
"I can't accompany you anymore, and there are some activities that need to be participated in. You may not be used to eating the things here. After the end, I will accompany you to have an authentic F-National F meal. Also, I want to try on Miss Lin's cheongsam. It's so beautiful that it makes people lose confidence and stand by your side!"
A soft voice, a springy look, and his tone was filled with the weakness of Sophia in this man. "I can't accompany you anymore" is a negotiation and a low attitude of asking the other party for understanding, "I will accompany you" instead of you will accompany me. This shows many problems for the identity of a princess. This man is Sophia, who doesn't want to show herself with his identity. Of course, it may also be because the other party's status is not lower than Sophia, which is automatically ignored by everyone. "No confidence" conveys a top-notch message. This man is not what some despicable people think, but Sophia's forbidden body, and the relationship between the two is equal.
Taking advantage of the moment when he lowered his head and faced Xiaojun, Sophia blinked at him, and it seemed like she would say again, how about it? The play he made for you is big enough!
Xiaojun smiled bitterly in his heart. Is this situation really beneficial to him? I don’t want to get something that I shouldn’t get because of your influence. It is an insult to Haoyu Film and Television, an insult to xg Film.
Seeing Sophia leave surrounded by a group of people, Xiaojun turned around and spoke to Gibson, who had just returned from the crowd and had a female companion by his side. At the same time, he had to admire him that he still had such thoughts on this occasion.
"This message is not good. My movie does not require some external force to help me understand the story. I just hope that the film "Plan a" can be selected under fair and just circumstances. We should take what we should take, and we should not take what we should not take, I don't need it!"
Gibson nodded. It is really hard to say about such a thing. Although Cannes is an international film festival and has always adhered to a fair and fair selection attitude, that is relative. Sophia's performance, especially before the tour of the item that is about to rise to the symbol of national strength, Sophia, a discourse person, had to make many people consider it.
Standing next to Gipsen, a "female star" who had no impression in Xiaojun's mind, heard Xiaojun's fluent English and the meaning in his words, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. Is this person noble or stupid? With such an opportunity and such a background, it would be okay to win a prize based on relationships. Except for some people, no one would have any negative remarks from the media. Moreover, the woman around him is really beautiful, completely subverting all the differences in aesthetic concepts between the East and the West. Anyone at the scene did not secretly look at this woman's eyes. If it weren't for the strength and unreasonable performance of the man at the entrance just now, I guess there would be many people coming up to meet or meet him this time.
With a handicap speech, speech, and welcome, Sofia stood in the most prominent position and accepted the official welcome from everyone present. At this time, Xiaojun had already pulled Brigitte Lin to the corner, found a few chairs, and sat down. Some staff members at the scene saw his actions. Thinking of the intimate attitude between the protagonist, Princess Sofia and this man, they pretended not to see him "disrespect" the behavior of the princess and the minister.
"Sit down. At Haoyu Film and Television, as long as you do your job well, you can certainly abide by some conventional rules. If you don't like bad ones, you can ignore them. After the cocktail party starts, we will leave. I really don't like this boring and hypocritical social engagement. Moreover, this film festival is to open your eyes and improve your certain status in xg, and promote new clothes. Otherwise, I won't come or bring you!" Xiaojun pulled Brigitte Lin to the chair, who was a little nervous. He knew that at this time, some things needed to be explained to Brigitte Lin so that her next behavior would not misunderstand her.
Wearing a cheongsam is very tiring without long-term exercise and adaptation. Stand up your chest, raise your head, and lift your buttocks, and pay special attention to the overall coordination of the body. Otherwise, a little movement will lose the so-called posture and will be infinitely magnified by the cheongsam. It can be said that a woman wearing a cheongsam is a double-edged sword. If she wears a cheongsam, she will infinitely magnify your charm and sexyness; if she doesn't wear it well, she will also amplify even a little bit of your shortcomings.
With elegant crossed legs and straight waist, Brigitte Lin sat on the chair, but actually didn't feel the intention of rest, but it was a little less tired than standing or walking.
"I understand, are you still afraid that I will misunderstand you? This time in Cannes, "Plan A" itself has not reached that level, and I am not nominated by my strength. Everything is because of Princess Sophia, she is pleasing you. Although I don't know what happened between you, I can see it. Don't worry, if I don't have this adaptability, I don't have to continue to stay in the film and television industry!" Brigitte Lin said without caring.
"This time, I will only treat it as a drill. Give me three years. I will definitely let you walk on that stage and get the highest honor. It is my compensation for your friendly performance this time. How about it?" Xiaojun squinted his eyes and lit a cigarette sent by Sophia. This smell still made him feel very comfortable.
Brigitte Lin smiled faintly: "I keep my word, I'm taking it seriously, and it's not in vain that I've been wearing this clothes I've never tried before."
"Of course it's true. This is not my ultimate goal. This is just one stop!" Xiaojun had a bit of a sense of guidance and a very loud tone.
Everyone understands the hidden meaning of this statement. The awards at the world's second largest film festival are not the end point. It goes without saying what the end point is. If someone else hears Xiaojun's words, they may listen to them as a joke or sneer, but Shuang'er and others around them will not, and Brigitte Lin will not.
"I believe you, but don't pull me down the end!" Brigitte Lin calmed down the atmosphere, and at the same time, the extravagant hope for the supreme Xiaojin man for the filmmakers was surging for the first time. The realization rate of this extravagant hope came from her trust in Xiaojun and her recognition of his abilities.
Xiaojun smiled faintly. He understood what Brigitte Lin meant, but she still thought about her end point closer. Why can't xg become that holy place if it is the world's top selection?
The cocktail party finally officially began with the tedious speeches and welcomes in the previous period. The director and director, producer and actor, actor and director. Anyway, the purpose of the cocktail party is actually filming and interviewing, and for people in the circle, it is a place of communication.
Xiaojun and Brigitte Lin stood up and were about to leave the side door, but were delayed by the acquaintance of the director and producers one after another.
"Chairman Zuo, Miss Lin, hello, I am xxx. Today I saw two of you. I had an idea, which is to invite you to shoot a video together. I don't know~~~" Why is a big director in Y Country called a big director? Because behind him, there are several producers who follow him. It can be seen that they are a group, and the director's inquiry also reflects the director's status in the eyes of the producer. If he is not a well-known big director, how can he speak on behalf of the producer?
The lack of knowledge about European films is not because of the lack of attention, but because Xiaojun has not had time to understand the market here so far.
As soon as the director finished speaking, before Xiaojun and Brigitte Lin reacted, some bearded men and powerful superiors who came over bearded and imposingly raised their olive branches before Xiaojun spoke. This pair of men and women, whether Xiaojun is the boss of the company or not, just appearance, as a male vase, is enough to make a film that makes women scream and obsessed with. Idols, idols, and appearance are naturally the first elements.
"Mr. Zuo, we have a script here, and this lacks an oriental actor who is against No. 1. I wonder if you are interested!"
"Dong Zuo, are you interested in working with two companies? We are xxx company in Colombia! As long as you and Miss Lin play the role of the male and female lead, we can make a script specifically for you."
"Ms. Lin, I don't know if you are interested in the development of Country F, our company~~~"
In the end, before the person finished speaking, he was scared by the murderous gazes of the people around him. When he thought about it, he knew what he was saying wrong. Brigitte Lin is obviously the main artist of Haoyu Film and Television, and his relationship with the company's boss Zuo Haojun is also somewhat ambiguous. It can be seen from the fact that Zuo Haojun can vent his anger for her regardless of the occasion because of a small episode. He actually said such unstoppable words. As soon as this sentence was released, the premise of possible cooperation was basically cut off.
These people came so enthusiastically to build relationships, throw out olive branches, and seek cooperation, which was nothing more than the consequences of their appearance and Sophia's ambiguous attitude.
The film companies, production companies, directors, and bosses in Country Y are particularly enthusiastic and proactive. Many of them even put down their figure and talk to Xiaojun in an almost humble manner. Sophia's performance alone cannot make these wealthy or famous people like this. But just now, Gibson's words made these people understand that Zuo Haojun is destined to have a certain voice in Country Y in the future.
"Chairman Zuo is the most loyal business partner of my family, and you should also know that the two departments of the TV Center and the Ministry of Culture are in the hands of our family!" Without saying it thoroughly, just click it. Gibson's words are undoubtedly expressing a message to these people. The film and television productions that Zuo Haojun participated in are all green lights in Country Y.
I originally thought that Chairman Zuo would be difficult to get along with, and even faced Princess Sofia, they looked arrogant. These people were ready to hit a wall, but Xiaojun's attitude at this time was completely different from the one who handed over the business card just now. He gave a gentle smile and a friendly attitude, but in his words, he did not give anyone a positive or intentional response, and he used Tai Chi to push it away.
When I came here, I had already expected that the possibility of being rejected was relatively high, but Xiaojun's tactful way still made these people feel very comfortable, and at least I felt the friendship of Chairman Zuo.
Sofia saw Xiaojun and his group leave, and looked at the time, and said that she was tired and followed Xiaojun. After the two ministers also left, the scene was allowed to enter the entertainment media. Just now, there were only a few government-led reporters and media present in the venue. There were so many big figures in this occasion, and the organizing committee was also afraid that some entertainment reporters would ask some outdated questions.
The reporters who were already trying to interview Xiaojun and his group from xg had responded to what Kurosawa said just now and what they responded to what happened just now were also thinking about one or two questions about interviewing Princess Sofia if possible. As soon as these reporters were approved, they flocked into the venue, like locusts passing through the entire venue. Princess Sofia was gone, and you can see at this glance that there were fewer officials in the venue, but Chairman Zuo and his group were gone, which made these reporters have some imagination. Is it true that these people are in the wrong, so they are not ready to accept interviews from reporters and leave early?
This idea is becoming more and more prosperous like a flame in Kurosawa's preconceived words, especially some journalists from RB. The nation has bad nature when facing a strong nation. At this time, under Kurosawa's suggestion, he saw that Xiaojun and others were not present at this time, either trying to win over, incite, or make friends. After the cocktail party, he bowed and nodded and pulled some mainstream media reporters to dinner or go out to drink. The words kept hinting in these reporters, the arrogance and arrogance of XG's Haoyu Film and Television, so that there would be negative news about this new company from XG in newspapers or TV reports tomorrow.
Kurosawa Aki did this with two purposes. One is of course for the female lead, but actually the actor of his bed friend vented his anger. The other is hatred for Xiaojun's disdainful attitude. In Asia, he, the director who is considered the biggest brand, was actually looked down upon by a small company boss from XG, especially when he is a Chinese. He didn't know that it was Xiaojun who deliberately expressed his intention to speak in Chinese at the end. Kurosawa Aki's heart was full of disdain for this nation that was almost wiped out by RB. He still held the attitude of conquerors and conquered people in his heart. He could not tolerate Xiaojun's disdainful attitude and had made up his mind to teach this person a lesson.
Similarly, so many photos and images have made the crew a big ugly. If you don’t take revenge, it will damage the dignity of the Yamato nation. Moreover, the importance attached to Cannes this time has been given to many journalists and media in China. Those humiliated photos have been spread, but I have not fought back. So what’s the face to go back to face the people of the entire country?
As for Xiaojun's identity, the entire crew did not know. When introducing him as the helm of Haoyu's costume, the crew was interviewing at the entrance, and all their attention was on the interview, and they did not hear the host's introduction clearly. Later, he did not see Xiaojun's special relationship with Earl of Gipson and even Princess Sophia.
After leaving, Kurosawa Akira thought of the reporters interviewing the crew. They could be said to be witnesses. There were photos and videos at the time. If you got this, you could get this boy from China to be seriously taught. At the very least, you would be disqualified from the election. At the worst, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would be like xg, or even China to hold accountable. Those are not something you can control as a director. Now, the most important thing is to grasp the direction of public opinion to your own side.
The assistant was sent to contact the reporters who interviewed him and others at the entrance with a business card, but there was no result. The good news he brought back was that the other party did not respond a little, which made Kurosawa a little puzzled. However, after all, the matter was developing in a favorable direction, so he didn't care whether he could find those reporters, because many people had taken photos of their people after being beaten and photos of the other party's tough attitude. With these, it was enough.
The RB nation, if we talk about their work attitude, was originally extremely rigorous, but when it comes to some of the little things in their hearts, they would lose some reason and ignore their heads and tails when doing things. If the reporters who later entered the cocktail party were not so focused on finding Xiaojun and others to raise some sharp questions, and later focused on winning over and inciting some local or other media reporters from other countries, they might notice that the most discussed Zuo Haojun and the biggest media in the F country were Zuo Haojun. The central topic was the relationship between Zuo Haojun and Princess Sophia.
Staying in Cannes for one night, I could have gone back overnight, but Xiaojun stopped Sofia's proposal and told her to wait and see the show.
In the middle of the night, Zuo Yi, who was sent by Xiaojun when he left the cocktail party, returned to the hotel. After listening to Zuo Yi's report, Xiaojun's smile became even more intense. He wanted to play with me, are you worthy? See who we play with whom!
The next morning, the unprecedented grandeur about the red carpet of the cocktail party last night and the arrival of Sofia, the most beautiful princess of the country Y country, was broadcast on time in the prime time of the evening of xg and rb. The difference in time between the two places also made the ratings of this program broadcast along with the TV station of F countries in the two places the most golden 7 pm.
xg's TVB bought the broadcast rights this time because this was the rise of Haoyu Film and Television, and it was also the second time that xg films appeared at the most famous international film festival after Bruce Lee. And there were two awards shortlisted, and more importantly, Xiaojun went there.
RB's TV station attaches great importance to whether director Akira Kurosawa's film can win that grand prize. Not only did he send a large number of reporters, he also purchased the entire broadcasting rights, and even opened a channel column to specifically follow up and report on this trip to Cannes.
The grand red carpet ceremony also feasted the audience who followed the entertainment industry and the film and television industry. There are so many well-known artists and so many well-known directors. When I saw these video materials in the past, many XG people would think when will the Chinese appear again? Today, they have waited, and they didn’t see it from the initial appearance, and there are basically big bowls of panic behind them. Shouldn’t they arrange this red carpet for Haoyu Film and Television?
Until Xiaojun and Brigitte Lin's appearance appeared on TV, the audience sitting in front of the TV was infuriated. Orientals can also use their "appearance" and courage to shock the world, and no longer only know Oriental Kung Fu. At this time, no audience thought that only European and American stars were so shocking. Brigitte Lin, a jade star in Southeast Asia, was just because of this appearance and this time's outfit, becoming the real representative of oriental women in the eyes of the Chinese audience who can see this red carpet ceremony.
What surprised everyone the most was Xiaojun. All those who knew Xiaojun were completely shocked by his outfit. Is this the one Xiaojun he knew? And producers and directors in the film and television industry, when they saw Xiaojun's appearance, in addition to the "stunning beauty" that shocked him, there was also an idea in their minds. If he could be an actor and hone his acting skills, he could become a top star. However, this idea was just a circle in their minds and disappeared. With his identity and family background, could he be a actor called the lower-ranking rank in the upper class?
In this grand cocktail party, the conflict between Xiaojun and Kurosawa Akira was completely eliminated. This is also a film edited by the organizing committee. With the appearance of Sophia and Gibson, coupled with the identity of Haoyu Clothing, the organizing committee dared not put that scene into the film.
Even so, these things were not covered up. Kurosawa's "work" was effective. Newspapers, magazines, and some marginal TV stations still reported this matter according to Kurosawa's ideas.
Those photos, those dialogues, and those naked humiliation that are contrasting clearly show the "wronged" and "humiliation" of the entire incident.
The xg person was shocked, is this true or false?
The RB people were furious. How could the Yamato people tolerate being bullied by people in a small place, take to the streets, marches, ask the government to come forward and severely punish those who bully people, and ask the government to respond.
People in F country are also controlled by their distorted and perverted psychology. They hold banners and photos of being bullied, gather in the hotel street of the Cannes Film Festival, asking Haoyu Film and Television to come forward and publicly like Director Kurosawa Akira, who is like the big RB, and asked the organizing committee to cancel the election of Haoyu Film and Television, and demand that the person who beats the person and use the law to punish them severely.
The people in XG were also guided by this public opinion, and even organized people to besiege Haoyu Building and hung out clothes that resisted Haoyu clothing, requiring all citizens to no longer wear the clothes produced by Haoyu clothing. However, many people gathered at the entrance of Haoyu Building, took off the Haoyu clothing, ignited and burned them to show their determination.
After Xue Yulong and Li Zeming called Xiaojun, after getting to know each other, there were sinister smiles on their faces. Xiaojun was so hurt. He picked up the phone and called the police, claiming that someone set fire at the entrance of Haoyu Building.
Of course the police knew what was going on. The eldest son of the Xue family said that it was an imperial edict. A few RB people dared to be arrogant on the land of the Great Era. The police held batons and handcuffs and drove these people away from Haoyu Building. Those who refused to leave were handcuffed away.
The next RB media compared the follow-up video of the incident that day, including Xiaojun's arrogant attitude, with director Kurosawa Akira's unfair fear of power, the artist was beaten, and the employees were beaten, focusing on comparing Xiaojun's arrogant appearance with Kurosawa Akira's resentment. At the same time, a big bomb was reported, the boss of Haoyu Film and Television, Zuo Haojun, who was hitting people, was from the Chinese.
The loss of composure escalated again. Driven by some people in the RB, the incident rose to a political incident. Zuo Haojun's behavior was a provocation to RB, a manifestation of deliberately provoking disputes between the two countries, and asked the Chinese government to come forward to explain.
At the same time, these interested people notified Kurosawa to make all relevant "evidence" public, while passing through the embassy, such as the Cannes Film Festival Organizing Committee, and the Cannes local government pressed the matter to public trial, giving both parties a clear solution.
RB students studying in Europe are already young and vigorous, and are not rational. Under the instigation of the media, they gathered in Cannes from various countries and marched to the parade and became the biggest weapon of these students.
The organizing committee could not solve the problem and reported it to the government of F. However, the government did not make any statement. They were waiting, waiting for the attitude of Princess Sophia and Country Y. For this neighboring country, RB, a slave who was servile like M., but this slave is now hard-working and dares to put pressure on Country F.
Disdain is disdain, but this incident has nothing to do with Country F. If it weren't for the existence of Sophia and Gibson in the middle, this matter would have been notified to the Cannes Film Festival organizing committee and deal with it with normal means. In that case, Haoyu Film and Television and Zuo Haojun would definitely be the party that suffers the disadvantage. The party that has the advantage of all the evidence is Akira Kurosawa, and the party that has the disadvantage is Zuo Haojun.
If it is a normal person, it is normal to disqualify the election and hold legal responsibility accountable. Even if there is no such big scene now, the organizing committee of the Cannes Film Festival will handle this matter through the police just by relying on the reputation of director Akira Kurosawa.
But now
In xg, countless calls came to Xue Yulong and Li Zeming, including Xue Yuyan from Tianjing. She represented not only herself, not only Xiaoyu and the girls, but also China's attitude and explanation of Xiaojun's attitude. What was going on?
There are also some phone calls that care about Xiaojun, including two bigwigs in the film and television industry, including Uncle Shao Liu and Zou Huai. They said that as long as Xiaojun speaks, they can be responsible for helping communicate and see if they can turn big things into small things.
Xue Yulong told Xue Yuyan about Xiaojun's thoughts and subsequent methods, which made her feel relieved. She couldn't help but laugh at her lover's insidiousness and troubles when hung up the phone, but she could understand that for a red child like Xiaojun, he was certain to hate RB.
Li Zeming also told everyone who was worried about Xiaojun, so don’t worry. Xiaojun will handle this matter himself, and everyone will wait and see the subsequent development.
A dark cloud dissipated, and everyone familiar with Xiaojun knew that since he said it was okay, he must have the confidence to win and turn the defeat, so he sat down and watched the reports every day, waiting for Xiaojun's rain and fluctuations.
Sofia also ran to Xiaojun's room and asked him if he needed help and said he could protect him. The F government ignored RB's clamor and would only go through the procedures to reconcile both sides. As for those who make trouble, they can suppress them at any time.
"No, just treat it coldly, treat it coldly. Don't interfere. I'm sure about this matter, but you need to stand here and let the government here handle it fairly and follow the normal procedures. The whole story is," Xiaojun told Sophia about his last trick.
Hearing that Xiaojun had such a trick in his hand, Sophia smiled and pinched him: "You, have you been trying to design someone for a long time? Otherwise, how could there be so many detailed evidence!"
Xiaojun just laughed and didn't speak anymore, but was a little excited. He didn't expect that Kurosawa Akira would make the matter so big, and the RB government would cooperate so much. Now the matter is no longer a simple beating incident, but a rising height. If he does not have those preparations, in terms of this matter, even if Sophia comes forward and Haoyu Film and Television will basically be a waste. As the chairman, he must resign to protect the brand of Haoyu clothing, and more chain reactions will make him more passive.
Humph! Since you want to play, let’s play it thoroughly and see how you end up in the end!
Outside the hotel window, the RB students holding banners were still protesting like the F government in the form of meditation. After so long, they have not yet shown a clear attitude.
Chapter completed!
