Time came to the 24th, and the Cannes Film Festival finally ushered in the closing red carpet ceremony ten days later.

However, the star quality at the scene was average. After all, the celebrities were not presenters of awards, nor were they shortlisted for the competition. Naturally, they had all left.

So the ones who are well-known enough are the arrogant guy like Quentin, plus Uma Thurman, and maybe the Oscar-winning actor Adrien Brody, the one who has never been doing well and even came to China.

The one who filmed "1942", "Army", and "Bombing".

In addition, there are also several Chinese filmmakers. One of them is Zhao Tao, director Jia’s partner. I won’t mention this. Director Jia’s favorite actress is indispensable in almost every movie. She is also... true love.

Or...find a partner and save money on the film?

After all, Director Jia's movies don't seem to make much money.

And there is Li Yuchun... Yes, the other party seems to be the award guest, I don’t know what happened? How did he get into the team?

Finally, there is no need to say more about the main creators of the "Hua Nian" crew. Director Lin Shi led the team, along with Zhou Xun and others.

Putting all this aside, after the red carpet ceremony passed without any surprises or joy, it was natural for the final awards ceremony to come.

The host came on stage and gave a very eloquent opening speech for more than five minutes. Then he cut into the topic and started awarding awards. There was no performance or anything like that.

The first award was for the best short film, and the presenters were directors Abbas and Li Yuchun. Unexpectedly, Brother Chun was the first to appear on stage.

Finally, a short film called "Leidi" was chosen.

Then the Camera d'Or was awarded, which means the best domestic debut film. Finally, the French film "Party Girl" won it.

Then, awards such as the "Un Certain Regard" Award, the "Un Certain Regard" Jury Award, the Special Award, and the Best Ensemble Award were awarded in succession.

Some of these awards are not fixed, such as the Best Ensemble Award, which may change at any time depending on the situation.

The special award is obviously a consolation award, the kind of work that almost failed to win the grand prize.

Halfway through the awards ceremony, the judges were introduced one by one, and then they were invited to sit in a row on the left side of the stage, ready to watch the awarding of the last few awards. The chairman of the jury was also responsible for announcing the winners, while the presenting guests were only responsible for handing out the awards.

In this way, the Best Screenplay Award was first awarded, and the winner was the screenwriter of the Russian film "Leviathan".

This result made Lin Shi, the director of "The Years" in the audience, feel very complicated. No one would want to win a film shortlisted for important awards, but unfortunately, a film can only win one award in most cases.

So as a director and screenwriter, he doesn't know whether he should be grateful that he didn't win this award, or that he would win a more important award later, or what.

Anyway, at this moment, his whole body felt a little tense.

"The Years", a film that he truly considers to be his own, was shortlisted for Cannes, so Lin Shi naturally expected it to shine.

Lin Shi was not the only one who was feeling uneasy. Zhou Xun, who was next to her, was equally nervous. After all, "Years" was shortlisted for the main competition, which meant she was automatically nominated for Best Actress? She was even a bit like a Cannes Best Actress.

Chance.

The next award to be awarded is the Best Actress Award. The award presenter is an unknown foreign filmmaker. After some opening remarks, it will be announced by the chairman of the jury, Jane Campion.

However, when the name "Julianne Moore" appeared, Zhou Xun felt lost and relieved at the same time. It was a pity that he didn't get it, but he finally didn't have to hold it in his mouth anymore. Not to mention how stiff he was just now, and how fake he was.

laugh.

Now? Did she suddenly envy that guy Jiang Xiao? If she hadn't come to the scene, she wouldn't have had to go through such a process at all.

Or is it still different? After all, I have known each other for a long time. Zhou Xun has never seen Jiang Xiao get nervous on any occasion. God.

I feel that based on this, it’s no wonder that guy’s acting skills are not very good, and he has basically won all the awards he can win in China.

After the nervousness of the weekly news was over, Gulinazha became nervous again because the Best Actor Award was about to be presented.

It has nothing to do with her, but it does have something to do with the man she is related to. She even feels more nervous than whether or not she will win the award.

Just when Sister Naza was extremely nervous, Monica Bellucci came to the stage at the invitation of the host and greeted her in Italian, but there was a simultaneous interpreter who was half a step behind to translate into French.

Whether the knot was natural or Jane Campion was the one to reveal it, when the host and Monica Bellucci looked at it together, the former didn't say anything, let alone create any atmosphere, and directly announced: "Winning the most successful knot.

The best actor is Jiang Xiao from China in "The Years", congratulations!"

"Whoa whoa whoa~!!!"

Polite applause followed.

The crew of "Nian Hua" was caught in a surprise. If Gulinazha hadn't subconsciously covered her mouth, she might have screamed directly.

Won an award, Jiang Xiao really won an award, Best Actor at Cannes.

"This guy is so lucky, will he become the best actor in Cannes?"

While he was happy for his friend Jiang Xiao, Zhou Xun couldn't help but murmur to himself.

Liu Haoran was actually the calmest one, but after hearing that the boss, Jiang Xiao, had won the award, he inevitably felt a sense of admiration for his senior idols.

Director Lin Shi stood up, straightened his suit, and then got ready to go on stage. Jiang Xiao himself didn't come, so naturally he had to pick it up on his behalf.

Although I am very happy for the latter, I am also a little bit complicated. After all, Jiang Xiao won the Best Actor, and the chance of winning another award for "The Year" has become very slim.

But after all, it is worth being happy to win a prize.

"Thank you. Jiang Xiao was not able to come to the scene in person because of filming work. I helped him act on his behalf. I am very grateful to all the judges for their recognition of "The Years" and their recognition of Jiang Xiao. In my eyes, he is indeed a perfect actor.

He is a very good collaborator, so I am very happy that he can win this award, and I sincerely congratulate him."

"And thanks also to the Cannes Film Festival..."

After taking the stage, Lin Shi didn't say much and took the award certificate from Monica Bellucci. As for the trophy, he placed it directly on the podium. There was no need to pick it up. He could just take it away later.

In short, after receiving the certificate, he quickly delivered his acceptance speech in fairly fluent English, even with a slight Chinese accent.

Due to the time difference, the time in Hawaii is eleven hours behind Cannes.

Song Zuer's birthday passed yesterday. Unfortunately, he was busy filming during the day, so he only had time to celebrate with his girl in the evening. He found a very atmospheric restaurant to have dinner and gave her gifts.

Then we went back to the hotel, and continued to celebrate "Happy Birthday" when the girl was not completely "quick", uh...

Fortunately, more than a day has passed in between, so it's okay, just be gentle.

Unfortunately, I didn't have to film any movies today, so I slept until very late and had breakfast and lunch together.

"Zu'er, when are you going back? Don't you want to go to school? It's not yet summer vacation!"

While putting vegetables in the girl's bowl, Jiang Xiao took advantage of the situation and became concerned about a question that suddenly occurred to him.

"I'm asking for leave, brother Jiang Xiao. I, can I play here for a while?"

Song Zuer could ignore other people's attitudes, even her mother's, but if Jiang Xiao really wanted to control her, she could only be obedient.

"I said you didn't sneak out, right?"

Jiang Xiao suddenly felt a little suspicious.

After all, children who are not from the original family are sometimes more rebellious.

"Well, there is."

Song Zuer responded somewhat weakly.

"I don't like people who lie to others for nothing, think about it yourself!"

"Okay, okay, I sneaked out and had a fight with my mother, but brother Jiang Xiao, don't worry, I'll kill you first and then tell you the truth. My mother knew I was here and called back as soon as she got off the plane."

Song Zuer, who was really afraid of Jiang Xiao's anger, finally confessed everything honestly.

"Then your mother isn't worried about you?"

"She's very busy, busy meeting a new boyfriend and so on. It's good to know that I'm still alive!"

"..."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiao wanted to say something, but for a moment, he couldn't bear to say it anymore.

"Okay, you can stay here for a while, but don't leave your studies behind."

In the end, he agreed to Song Zuer's wish to stay for a while.

"Don't worry, brother Jiang Xiao, I brought my homework here. Then when you want to film, I will do my homework in the hotel, hehe!"

Seeing that Jiang Xiao didn't say anything more in the end, Song Zuer also happily replied.

Hearing the sound, Jiang Xiao himself felt a little funny when he heard the words "do homework". Just when he was about to say something in response, a call came on his cell phone.

When he took it out, he saw that the call was from Nazha. After a slight hesitation, he answered the phone without going behind Song's back and said, "Hey, Nazha, what's wrong!"

"Brother Jiang Xiao, I'm so excited. You won the award, Best Actor at Cannes, and Director Lin also won two awards for Best Director. I'll let you know right after the award ceremony!"

On the other end of the phone, Gu Linaza looked very excited and told Jiang Xiao the good news about winning the award.

"Really? That's quite surprising. There are actually two awards."

Jiang Xiao also smiled when he heard that Miss Nazha was so excited. He won the award. Why are you so excited, woman?

Then I was really surprised that "The Year" actually won two awards for Best Actor and Director. After all, under normal circumstances, a movie can only win one award.

It is not impossible to win two grand prizes, but it is still relatively rare.

"Yeah, none of us expected that, not to mention how excited Director Lin is. Brother Jiang Xiao, let me interview you. How do you feel when you hear that you won the Best Actor at Cannes? Hee!"

"Well, it's very good. When I return to China, I'll celebrate it with you."

"Ah, bad guy, I don't want to talk to you anymore!"

"Uh, what did I say?"

~~~~

About ten minutes later, Jiang Xiao hung up the phone call from Gu Linaza who didn't want to talk to him.

Immediately, he heard Song Zuer opposite him looking at him and asking: "Brother Jiang Xiao, is this Sister Nazha's phone number? What kind of prize are you talking about?"

"It's nothing. At the Cannes Film Festival, your boss and I won the Best Actor!"

Jiang Xiao didn't hide anything, he just "pretended" lightly.

"Wow, is it true? Well, my men are always bad, hehe!"
Chapter completed!
