(The New Year is coming soon. I would like to send you a simple blessing and wish you good fortune!)

Jiang Xiao could feel that the organizers of the Shana Film Festival treated him very politely.

Arriving at Nice Airport in Nice, Liu Huohua’s French wife’s hometown is Cannes. In fact, Cannes is a small town that happens to belong to Nice, so the only way to fly is to Nice Airport.

The distance between the two is not particularly far, roughly equivalent to the distance between Beijing and Yanqing.

In short, after he got off his private plane, he immediately got into a limousine specially sent by the authorities to pick him up, and then went straight to Cannes, the host of the Cannes Film Festival.

We arrived in a hurry, so time was a bit tight. We met at the hotel with the main creators of "Glimmer", including director Lin Shi, cheap cousin Liu Lianzi, and the two behind-the-scenes actors Yong Mei and Wu Gangjia.

There are not many people, mainly because this movie is based on the character played by Jiang Xiao. Strictly speaking, there is not even a "female lead".

Anyway, after briefly saying hello to several of the main creators, he also started to prepare for the red carpet of the closing ceremony that would be held in an hour. Especially since he had to go to the venue in advance, there was really not much time left for his personal preparation.

Of course, Jiang Xiao doesn't need much time to prepare. He can just put on the dress he prepared early and do some simple styling.

During this period, the cheap cousin obviously wanted to have a private... meeting with his cheap cousin, but time was really tight and he had to pay attention to the impact, so he had no choice but to give up.

~~~~

Later in the afternoon, the scheduled time arrived, and the red carpet ceremony for the closing ceremony of the 70th Cannes International Film Festival kicked off. Filmmakers and guests from all walks of life attended the event in their best attire.

The more famous ones include Uma Thurman, David Lynch, Browder Adrian, Will Smith, "Joker" Joaquin Phoenix, and "Model Worker Sister" Jesse

Ka-Chastain et al.

There are also some Chinese filmmakers, well-known ones, such as Qin Lan, and a bearded Zhang with a "mysterious female companion". I don't know why the other party appeared in Cannes.

As for the "mysterious female companion", it seems that she is the "wife" who is more than N years younger than the other party and can be a grandson. She gave birth to a baby when she was sixty-nine and studied with Wang Gang?

Well, that's not the point. Anyway, these people showed up on the red carpet at the closing ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival.

When the cast of "Glimmer" walked on the red carpet, they were almost second to last, with only members of the main jury remaining behind.

Speaking of which, there is one of Jiang Xiao's "undercovers" on the jury this time, Fan Binbin.

Now it's good, he will definitely get one vote, and women will vote for him without thinking no matter what.

Maybe sometimes when I win the prize, I just lack such a steadfast vote.

Jiang Xiao hasn't had a chance to meet Fan Binbin yet, otherwise the woman might submit to him to reveal her secrets and see if she can get the prize.

As for why I didn’t send a message or anything…

After all, it is a well-known international film festival, and the judging process must still be closed and confidential. It is impossible for all judges to tell the results to whomever they want.

Speaking of going back to the red carpet, Jiang Xiao will certainly not go unnoticed. His popularity and attention are even as high as those of Will Smith. It is estimated that the two of them are almost at the top of this Cannes Film Festival.

It is true that I will not talk about age, qualifications, etc. My achievements are not bad, but I am still very young, so I have to be humble.

Waving, and occasionally stopping to take photos when reporters called her name, Jiang Xiao successfully walked through the red carpet and then walked into the award ceremony in the Film Palace and took her seat.

Not long after, the awards ceremony officially began, and the host came on stage, a goddess, even though she was already quite old, named Monica Bellucci.

It felt like this Italian goddess was a frequent visitor to the Cannes Film Festival in France. At least Jiang Xiao remembered that she had made the opening remarks last time he came here, and this time she directly became the host.

I don’t know if Monica Bellucci’s Typhoon was like this. She looked very uncomfortable, and when she spoke, she seemed to be reciting her lines stiffly, too...

In short, after a long movie-style opening speech of "praise", Monica Bellucci invited the first award guest Sandrina Guiberrin, a French actress who may be famous in France or Europe.

The other party is the jury chairman of the Camera d'Or unit. Please note that in addition to the competition unit, the Cannes Film Festival has other units, and each has its own jury chairman and jury members.

And this Golden Camera Award is not "Best Cinematography" or anything like that, it is equivalent to the meaning of "Director's Debut" in China.

By deliberately setting up a jury to only award one award, does it show that it attaches great importance to the works of new directors and newcomers?

In the end, the French film "Young Woman" won this award, and the director was a female director.

After this award was the Short Film Award, and then Jiang Xiao was surprised because a Chinese short film won the Palme d'Or Short Film Award, called "February Town".

It is also the first time that a Chinese short film has won the Palme d'Or Short Film Award.

In addition, I don’t know if the director of the short film was a little excited. His speech was just one sentence. Adding a word starting with “f” before “amazing” is also...

After the awards for these two sessions were distributed, Monica Bellucci invited out the chairman and members of the jury for the main competition unit. Jiang Xiao also saw Fan Binbin in a long dress. The woman was still on stage giving him

He cast a quick glance.

After the judges of the main competition unit took the stage and took their seats one by one on the right side of the stage, an intermediate performance began. A male singer sang a French song that he did not understand, so he could only say... the melody was good.

.

Then naturally came the awards ceremony for the main competition unit, with the Best Screenplay Award first presented, and a double-yolked egg, but it didn't have the name "Glimmer" in it.

The Jury Award was then awarded without the word "big" in front of it, which was somewhat of a consolation. Jiang Xiao didn't really want to hear the name "Glimmer". In the end, he got his wish.

The director is also a "fan" of Will Smith, and he chased stars on the spot.

Then, the Best Actress award began to be handed out, and the winner was Diane Kruger, a German actress whose most well-known work is probably "National Treasure" starring alongside Nicola Cage.

》Part One.

Afterwards, as Monica Bellucci invited Jessica Chastain to the stage to present the award, Jiang Xiao also paid serious attention. It was not about how beautiful the model worker was, but that what the other party was about to award was the Best Actor.

.

I can't say I'm nervous, but I definitely came here because I wanted to win an award. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Even if you win it once, you can't win it twice.

"Good evening everyone, I am very happy to be here. It is a very unforgettable experience for me, ha~!"

Jessica Chastain came to the middle of the stage and made the opening remarks amidst hearty laughter.

Monica Bellucci then answered: "President of the jury, please tell us who won the award?"

Here, Pedro Almodovar, the chairman of the jury who heard the news, stood up and jointly announced: "OK, the winner is Jiang Xiao, congratulations~!!!"

"Whoa whoa whoa~!!!"

Polite applause broke out from the audience.

Everyone on the set of "Glimmer" was also in a state of excitement.

When Liu Lianzi looked at her man, invisible "little stars" appeared in her eyes.

What kind of man is the most handsome? Naturally, he is a handsome and capable man, and she got it.

If she hadn't been worried about the occasion, she would have really wanted to hold Jiang Xiao, her "cheap cousin", for a passionate kiss.

"call!"

Regarding this result, Jiang Xiao also let out a sigh of relief. It was really a "second time" and he was naturally a little excited.

It can be said that the competitiveness is not small this time. For example, Joaquin Phoenix, who will win the Oscar for Best Actor for "Joker" in the future, can be regarded as the most competitive one.

But it was he who won in the end. Although he had not come to the Cannes Film Festival before, he had a "cheap cousin" who could tip him off at any time. Jiang Xiao still knew that all parties spoke highly of his personal performance in "Shimmer".

"This is a movie with real light and hope, and this is an actor who can really bring light and hope." This is his highest personal praise about "Glimmer".

All in all, Jiang Xiao stood up, straightened his clothes, hugged Liu Lianzi generously, quickly thanked the other creatives in the crew for their congratulations, and then strode onto the stage to receive the award.
Chapter completed!
