Chapter 110 Red Carpet Clearing Treatment? !
After a day of rest.
March 20th at 18:30.
Outside the Venice Cinema Palace, reporters were crowded on both sides of the red carpet, and flashlights kept flashing.
On the red carpet, a staff member in a suit repeatedly urged an actress, but she ignored it and continued to pose for the media.
At this moment, a celebrity not far away fell to the ground with a thump, causing the media to take pictures.
Scenes like this can be seen everywhere on the red carpet.
After all, it is not only the creative team and spokespersons invited by jewelry brands who step on the red carpet.
There are also some celebrities who have no works, who rely on connections or spend millions to get a red carpet opportunity, and they all use their special skills and work hard to look sexy.
It's just that not many media pay attention to them.
Just before the falling actress could get up, a large number of staff in suits came over and forcibly drove away the eye-catching star.
He spoke more decisively and even directly asked them to leave.
The surrounding media immediately understood that the organizer was clearing the venue!
During the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival each year, the venue is generally cleared no more than three times.
It's definitely a big shot!
They were talking about who was coming and staring intently at the entrance.
Soon, a black nanny car drove in.
The car door slowly opened, and three men and one woman got out of the car and stepped onto the red carpet.
The person walking at the front was none other than Chen Xiao.
The three surrounding people are Gong Li and other leading actors.
Different from the last time she walked on the red carpet, this time the major international media recognized Chen Xiao at a glance and quickly raised their cameras to take pictures.
There were also bursts of exclamations from the crowd.
"It's the crew of "Farewell My Concubine"!"
"Why do the organizers give such high standards? Are they planning to award a Golden Lion?"
"Maybe it's because the chief director just won the Palme d'Or, so he's giving it a special face, right?"
"It hasn't been screened and judged yet. It's definitely not because of the Golden Lion Award. I guess I might want to hire him as a judge, right?"
"No matter what the reason is, at such a young age, he definitely has a bright future."
…
The celebrities who had just been "asked to leave" looked back with envy in their eyes.
They tried their best to get to the edge of the red carpet.
But they were directly cleared.
It’s so irritating that people are so different from each other.
The staff on the side looked at their embarrassed appearance and sneered.
I'm most annoyed by these celebrities who cause trouble for others.
Look at their crew.
The red carpet is used to welcome high-profile guests, but now it is used by these celebrities to earn traffic, and they can't even drive them away. It's really annoying.
Real celebrities don’t need to show off their flesh to attract attention, and real talents don’t need to show off their posture to attract attention!
…
After a brief group photo, Chen Xiao entered the movie palace and saw their assigned positions from a distance.
Art director Fang Rong, photography director, music director and others have already taken their seats.
The four of them also walked over and sat with them.
The opening ceremony is to introduce the film and then show an opening film.
However, these are not Chen Xiao's goals.
He came to the Venice Film Festival early to expand his contacts in the global film and television industry.
Attending the opening ceremony is to show off and tell everyone that the chief director of last year's Palme d'Or film has arrived.
He sat down, and before he could speak to Fang Rong and others, he heard a clear female voice coming from the simultaneous interpretation earphones.
"Hello, Director Chen Xiao."
When he looked up, he saw a female star about the same age as himself.
The actress wore a black gauze dress, her blond hair was styled into an elegant low ponytail, with a few strands of broken hair hanging on both sides of her face, and she introduced herself with a smile.
"Hello, I am an artist under Hollywood City State Entertainment. I play the daughter of the protagonist in "Music Master"."
Immediately afterwards, the pretty girl said that she was a fan of his and that City State Entertainment hoped that he could come to work in Hollywood and would provide him with a lot of resources.
After that, he sent him an electronic business card of the company.
Then she gave him a pure smile and left with graceful steps.
Casting director Sun Li in the back row put his head in and said, "Director Chen, they are using a beauty trap on you! Send a little girl over."
Fang Rong shook his head in disgust, "Don't be kidnapped by a foreign girl! If you ask me, she is worse than my daughter! If you want to fall in love, I will introduce my daughter to you."
Chen Xiao glanced at Fang Rong's small eyes and Chinese-character face, and said firmly:
"No need, just focus on your career! Don't even talk about love!"
…
On the other side, the pretty girl walked back to her seat on the set of "The Music Master".
The producer, who is also the head of the production department of City State Entertainment, turned his head and asked: "Accept it?"
"Take it."
The minister smiled proudly.
Hollywood has the world's top entertainment industry and luxury brands, leading and representing the highest level of global fashion.
For a budding director, the charm is endless.
In the electronic business card, he specifically stated that he planned to provide Chen Xiao with an annual salary of 150 million yuan, movie shares, and a large number of resources.
Very tempting.
What's more, he specially sent the most beautiful girl in the company, she will definitely win!
Just when he thought of this, he saw Chen Xiao scanning his mobile phone with a sixty-year-old brown-haired uncle, followed closely by a fifty-year-old aunt and a twenty-year-old brother...
It seems that there is no particular preference for age, skin color, or gender, and all electronic business cards are accepted.
The smile on the minister's face slowly froze.
What is he doing? !
Why don't you refuse anyone who comes?
Could it be said that raising a higher price?
Damn it!
Let’s watch “Farewell My Concubine” tomorrow. If it’s really worth it, we’ll discuss with the company and increase the budget.
…
Soon, the opening ceremony officially began.
Casting director Sun Li heard the opening film “Commander” playing, and whispered in dissatisfaction: “Hey, why don’t you play ours?”
The music director next to him replied: “I won’t play it if it’s my turn. Everyone will be collectively depressed after it’s played.”
“That’s right.”
Chen Xiao was bored and simply sorted out the electronic business cards received on his mobile phone.
After roughly sorting them out, there were 97 in total.
There were entertainment companies, actors, distributors, etc.
Today, there were people who extended olive branches, invited cooperation, and hoped to play roles in his movies.
This is in the venue. When “Farewell My Concubine” is screened at the Film Palace tomorrow, it is estimated that the situation will be even hotter.
…
The next morning.
“Farewell My Concubine” was screened at the Film Palace.
There was still half an hour before the screening, and the large screening room with 1,032 seats was full.
With the successful precedent of "Titanic", distributors and investors from various countries sent assistants to grab seats early.
The crew came on time, and as soon as they came in, the screening began.
On the screen, two people walked out of the brown-gray picture.
The sound of sweeping the floor was rustling. .
The old working-class cleaning man stood in the audience, looking down at the two people, and asked in a serious voice: "What are you doing?"
The man in the Overlord costume said respectfully, "Ah, I'm here to walk the stage for the Peking Opera Theater."
