As the time approached the evening, the red carpet ceremony of the film festival officially kicked off, and guests from all walks of life also appeared on stage and dressed up.

Until almost halfway through the red carpet ceremony, Jiang Xiao and Zhou Xun first took the sponsor's courtesy car to the red carpet entrance, and then stepped onto the red carpet together.

It has to be said that almost as soon as he walked on the red carpet, he heard many people shouting his name, whether it was reporters or some fans and movie fans watching on the red carpet.

.

Sure enough, the rhythm has started to become popular, and it is no longer as obscure as before.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiao naturally walked with Zhou Xun, who was holding his arm, and waved gently in response. From time to time, he would stop for a moment to let the media reporters take photos.

Maybe it's because his image is indeed outstanding, he is well-groomed, and there seems to be quite a lot of media taking photos of him.

Faced with such a situation, Jiang Xiao didn't feel any nervousness and faced it calmly, even though it was his first time to attend a relatively large event like the Shanghai International Film Festival.

Regarding his experience, one cannot judge by his apparent age, so there is nothing surprising.

In addition, I have to mention that the reason why Jiang Xiao and Zhou Xun walked on the red carpet of the film festival today was mainly to represent "The Night Banquet".

Although this unfinished film was not shortlisted for the film festival, it just came to join in the excitement of publicity. Is it considered a red carpet?

Speaking of which, director Feng Xiaogang is still the deputy seat of the jury of this film festival. He did not appear with him and Zhou Xun because he had to appear last with the jury members.

As for Zhang Ziyi, it seems that he is busy in Japan, filming two Japanese movies, and has no time to come over.

There is also Uncle Ge, who seems to have a mental disorder and cannot fly. I heard that when he went abroad to attend the Cannes Film Festival, he had to take more than 20 trains before arriving at his destination. Such perseverance... He really wouldn't fly even if he died.

.

Of course, this is just a rumor and has not been confirmed.

Besides, if you really take the train, you can’t make more than 20 transfers. It’s more convenient to go from Beijing to Moscow first, and then go to Europe.

In short, Uncle Ge, who couldn't fly, probably didn't want to take the train from the capital to attend the film festival in Shanghai because he didn't want to go to the red carpet.

Putting all this aside, when Jiang Xiao and Zhou Xun walked to the middle of the red carpet, two hostesses in cheongsam each presented a pen for signature.

Without any hesitation, he took the pen and quickly found a blank space on the red background board. The pen moved like a dragon and signed an artistic signature.

After returning the pen, what surprised Jiang Xiao was that he and Zhou Xun were once again hosted by a red carpet hostess. He didn't know who it was, but they were temporarily left for interviews anyway.

And he said: "Welcome, welcome both of you to our Magic City International Film Festival. Let me just ask you two how you feel today. Jiang Xiao, would you like to speak first?"

"Uh... Okay, Magic City is good, and the Magic City Film Festival is good. I hope one day I can come back with my entries. It would be better if I can win a grand prize or something, that would be even better!"

Jiang Xiao didn't mean to be too out of the ordinary. After thinking for a short time, he just said this sentence, which was quite satisfactory.

"Indeed, I believe that as long as we work hard, such a day will come. What about you, Zhou Xun?"

After saying "chicken soup", the female host quickly extended the microphone to Zhou Xun and asked.

"That's good too. I hope...well, my hope is the same as Jiang Xiao's, ha!"

After hesitating for a while, Zhou Xun finally got lazy and "copied" Jiang Xiao with a smile.

"Okay, it seems that both of you have the heart to work hard as actors, so I hope that you two can realize this hope at the Shanghai Film Festival one day early. Finally, I would like to thank you both again for accepting the interview, thank you!"

Time was limited, and seeing another guest coming from behind, the female host also ended the brief interview.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiao and Zhou Xun naturally said nothing more and continued walking the second half of the red carpet.

Then he also saw a familiar figure in front of him, making various concave shapes for the media to take pictures. It seemed to be Mrs. Kurosawa... No, it's not black yet, it was Lin Zhilin.

Sometimes, Jiang Xiao really wonders how this guy became so famous, relying on his scandal with F4?

Or was it the "active" interaction between Andy Lau and Tony Leung at the Golden Horse Awards the year before last?

Asking the latter to take the shawl and hug the former made Andy Lau act a little uneasy, and Liang Chaowei's eyes were also inexplicable.

After two years, I boarded Wu Yusheng's "Red Cliff" wooden boat and finally stood up like "Meng Meng"?

Time is also fate, people with high emotional intelligence are just like that, squatting every time, why not wear flat shoes?

She's 1.73 meters tall, but she's not that tall? The human sister Zhang Ziling, who's 1.82 meters tall, hasn't even spoken yet.

Okay, that's a bit of a leverage.

No matter what, after walking the red carpet, Jiang Xiao and Zhou Xun walked into the Magic City Grand Theater together, and quickly found a seat with their names next to each other in the third row in the middle.

At this moment, there are already many familiar faces sitting here, such as Weng Xin, the famous...

Of course, that was before, but now people like Shu Qi have picked it up and mainly make a living in the mainland.

I heard that his parents worked at Tsinghua University before immigrating to Hong Kong, and their upbringing was very strict. As a result... probably the stricter the supervision, the stronger the rebellious spirit.

In addition, there were Rong Zuer, Xiao Qiang, Ning Jing, Chen Zihan, Zhou Bichang, Hu Ge and others. Yu Jiang Xiao even saw his senior sister Hu Jing.

Unexpectedly, the other party also came. Dressed in a wrap skirt made of silk satin fabric, and with a small wavy hair, it was hard to describe.

Hu Jing obviously saw him and waved to him, and he naturally responded accordingly.

The same goes for Chen Zihan, who was dressed in a black suspender dress. After all, they are all acquaintances.

Of course, since they were far away from each other and it was not suitable to speak loudly in such an occasion, Jiang Xiao simply said hello to the two of them.

Then he sat down in his seat and started chatting with Zhou Xun next to him.

And in the process, we gradually saw the emergence of famous filmmakers such as Xu Ke, Cheng Ming, Hiroyuki Sanada, Li Yu, and Hugh Jackman.

Among them, the appearance of "Wolverine" really surprised Jiang Xiao.

There are many big names, and it can be regarded as a shining star.

After the last members of the jury appeared, the opening ceremony officially began not long after.

After the opening performance was over, a female host named Yuan Ming who spoke English started co-hosting with Zhang Guoli.

Needless to say, the official person in charge of the Magic City spoke first, and then Luc Besson, known as the "French King", also spoke at the jury table.

Then the awards ceremony began. 83-year-old director Xie Jin presented Li Eu with the "Outstanding Contribution Award to Chinese Films."

This is a specially established award that does not belong to any competition award or is called an honorary award, so it is awarded here at the opening ceremony.

After it was over, there was another performance, and then the jury members began to be introduced.

From the chef Luc Besson, to the assistant chef Feng Xiaogang, to the judge Xu Jinglei, Guan Qinpeng who filmed "Lan Yu" and so on.

In fact, Jiang Xiao only knew three and a half of them, and the others didn't even know who they were when they heard their names.

As for why there are half, it actually refers to Guan Jianpeng. He has heard of the other person's name and some of his works, but he doesn't know what the person looks like. This is the first time he saw him today.

This openly gay man is a bit similar to Liu Ye's character in "Lan Yu", who was captured by Chu Qing.

Being able to make "Lan Yu" shows that the other party really empathizes with the movie.

No matter what, when Jiang Xiao and Zhou Xun came to the Shanghai Film Festival today, they were both just so-called "rainy goose without melon".

At most, I came here to watch the fun and gain some insights.

Of course, this is also a social event. No, at the reception after the opening ceremony, except for a few people who left early, most of the celebrity guests gathered together.

After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Xiao quickly went to find Hu Jing after parting ways with Zhou Xun.
