Diamond company shoots commercials, you shoot Titanic

Chapter 35



After a short interview, the group arrived at the underground parking lot.

The film and television celebrities were all very smart and quickly remembered that Director Chen came here by taxi!

A group of people surrounded him.

"Brother Chen, let me take you back."

"Here I come, I'm on my way!"

……

In this situation, no one would be suitable for Chen Xiao to choose.

At this moment, Wang Zhan walked to Chen Xiao and said with a smile:"Xiao Chen, there are reporters outside. I will take you back. I just want to talk to you about something."

Seeing the big boss speak, and putting on the hat of having something to do, the others left in disappointment.

Chen Xiao smiled and said:"Thank you, Mr. Wang, I just happen to have something to talk to you about."

He did have something to find Wang Zhan.

He wanted the public to see this movie and gain emotional value.

It was only the first step to release it in China and cause a sensation.

Next, he wanted to push"Titanic" to the international stage.

The Cannes Film Festival will be held in F country next month, and it is currently collecting films.

This is one of the three major film festivals in the world, and it has a very high gold content.

This stage is also worthy of"Titanic".

Chen Xiao and Wang Zhan opened the car door and got into the low-key car.

After fastening the seat belt, Chen Xiao went straight to the point:"Mr. Wang, I want to discuss with you about participating in the film festival."

Wang Zhan's eyes lit up.

Isn't this a coincidence?

He also wanted to talk to Chen Xiao about participating in the film festival.

Wang Zhan smiled with relief and said,"We are thinking the same thing. The Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival will be held next month. If Titanic participates, the best feature film will definitely be ours!"

Chen Xiao pursed his lips, was silent for a moment and continued,"Mr. Wang, I'm talking about... the Cannes Film Festival."

Wang Zhan's smile froze, and he looked at Chen Xiao with wide eyes.

Cannes?!

The awards of the Cannes Film Festival are considered to be one of the most difficult awards to win in the global film industry!

Want to enter Cannes with your first film?

This...

Wang Zhan said earnestly,"Do you know how many films in our country have won Cannes awards so far?"

Chen Xiao shook his head.

Wang Zhan said seriously,"17. Including short films, all kinds of awards add up to a total of 17."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhan saw Chen Xiao frowning slightly, as if thinking about something.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that this kid listens to me, that's good.

Just as he thought of this, Chen Xiao's calm voice rang in his ears.

"The previous situation doesn't seem to have anything to do with whether we win the award or not?"

Wang Zhan was stunned by his question and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Oh, forget it.

A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.

If you want to go, go.

Anyway, the registration fee is only a few thousand yuan.

If you don't pass the preliminary selection, no one will know, and it's not shameful.

He remembered that the Cannes Film Festival is divided into several sections, which can be simply understood as���The same track.

There is a unit called"A Focus Unit", which focuses on the works of newcomers, and works with unique perspectives and novel styles.

Compared with the"Main Competition Unit" where many big names gather, it is much friendlier to newcomers.

It's also good to try this track.

"Since you insist so much, then report it! If we really win an award in the Un Certain Regard section, the value of the entire crew will double! You will be even more legendary!"

Wang Zhan patted his shoulder, and a sense of expectation emerged in his heart.

However, that faint expectation had just sprouted……

"Mr. Wang, I suggest you apply for the main competition unit."

The newly sprouted expectations were instantly extinguished by Chen Xiao.

Wang Zhan glanced at him speechlessly.

Forget it, he finally understood.

This kid has never known the Cannes Film Festival. Is he dreaming?

Wang Zhan sighed lightly and said earnestly:"Then you have to compete with the world's top directors.

You are still young.

In a few decades, you may win an award in the main competition unit.

But it is not appropriate now.

"Titanic" conforms to the aesthetic taste of the Chinese people, but it may not conform to the aesthetic taste of the world market.

It is better to apply for a focus unit that is friendly to newcomers.

If you are lucky enough to win an award, as a newcomer, you can directly squeeze into the ranks of our country's first-class directors!

"

Chen Xiao smiled.

Mr. Wang develops his career in China and doesn't know much about the international market and foreigners' tastes.

But he is very sure that this film will definitely meet the aesthetic standards of the world market!

After all, in the original world, as soon as"Titanic" was released, it won 11 awards in the Oscars the following year alone.

Of course, it meets the aesthetic standards of other countries' markets.

Chen Xiao smiled lightly and said in an affirmative tone:"I'm sure it is very much in line with the aesthetic standards of foreign markets. Mr. Wang, if this movie wins the Palme d'Or or the Best Screenplay Award, as a producer, I don't need to say anything about Jiahao's status."

Wang Zhan chuckled.

Jiahao's status?

If it really won the Palme d'Or, as a producer, Jiahao would definitely become the most well-known film and television company in China, and even go overseas.

As a director, Chen Xiao would squeeze into the ranks of the top directors in China.

Although he was only 23 years old, no senior dared to look down on him.

But...isn't this just a dream?

You know, no movie in China has ever won the Palme d'Or!

A newcomer wanted to win the first Palme d'Or in China for his first film. He was embarrassed to say this, for fear of being laughed at by others.

Wang Zhan was silent for a moment, then sighed.

That's it.

Who hasn't had a dream when they were young?

He hadn't planned to let this movie go to Cannes.

Since the director insisted on letting it go, then let it go. Just think of it as a gift to this talented director.

"It's up to you, then apply for the main competition unit. But you have to go for the Golden Rooster Awards, right?"

""Okay."

Chen Xiao smiled and agreed.

The Golden Rooster Award, sometimes, a little watery.

But anyway, he can go to Cannes. As for the Golden Rooster Award, Mr. Wang can go if he wants.

This year, the registration for the Cannes Film Festival will end on October 5.

The shortlisted films will be announced on October 20, and then the jury will review the shortlisted films. On

November 10, a 12-day film festival will be held in Country F.

That's not far away, just one month later.

Seeing that Chen Xiao didn't say a word, Wang Zhan asked casually,"What are you thinking about?"

Chen Xiao touched his chin and replied casually,"I'm thinking about how to ask for leave from the next crew at that time? Well, if you really can't spare the time, just go and receive the award on the last day."

Wang Zhan rolled his eyes in disdain.

Brat, you're getting cocky.

Taking the time to receive an award from the Cannes Film Festival... You're so proud, why don't you go to the sky?

Go ahead, go ahead.

Young people can only be down-to-earth after they fall.
